Chapter 921
Cao Weiguo shook his head and said: "I don't touch this kind of thing!"
Xu Damao said anxiously: "Brother Weiguo, your courage is too small. Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, and I know about this matter. What are you afraid of!"
Cao Weiguo said: "Brother Damao, I'm not timid, but this thing can't be eaten or drunk, and it's useless to me."
Xu Damao said persistently: "This thing is gold. If I didn't have no money in my hands, and my friend was anxious to sell it, I would have kept it myself. This thing is gold. You buy it,
you won't lose money or be fooled, and you will definitely make a lot of money in the future. Let me tell you..."
Cao Weiguo still shook his head: "Forget it, forget it, I'm not interested in this thing."
Xu Damao said a lot, and even if the price was lowered again and again, Cao Weiguo just wouldn't loosen his mouth.
This made Xu Damao full of depression, secretly cursing Cao Weiguo for being as timid as a mouse.
The opportunity to make a fortune was delivered to his door, and he didn't want it!
Stupid!
Idiot!
Unappreciative!
Xu Damao sighed: "Brother Weiguo, if you're not interested, then forget it. It's a pity, I don't know who will benefit from such a good thing."
Cao Weiguo thought for a while and said: "Is your friend anxious to sell this thing?"
Xu Damao's lies came out of his mouth: "Hey! My friend was also from a wealthy family, but now the family has fallen, and his old father has contracted a serious illness. With no other way, he can only sell his heirloom cheaply to save his life..."
Cao Weiguo sighed: "He's a very filial son. Brother Damao, I know a friend who likes to collect this kind of thing. If there's a chance, I'll ask for you."
Xu Damao's eyes lit up instantly: "Saving a life is like fighting a fire! I want to see your friend now!"
Regardless of whether he's making up a friend out of thin air!
Xu Damao just wanted to sell the thing and make a profit from it.
The Zhou brothers had already agreed with him that no matter how much this thing sells for, the two brothers only wanted five hundred yuan.
Xu Damao originally opened his mouth to ask for one thousand yuan; as long as he sold it, he could net five hundred yuan.
Cao Weiguo pretended to be thoughtful and said: "In that case, you take the thing, and I'll take you over after work."
Xu Damao was extremely excited: "Thank you, Weiguo!"
Cao Weiguo smiled: "There's no need to be polite between us brothers."
After work, Cao Weiguo took Xu Damao to the Tongfu Teahouse on East Street.
Cao Weiguo said: "You drink some tea here, I'll go call the person over. Don't overthink it; this matter is a bit troublesome after all."
Xu Damao smiled: "How could that be! I understand this matter! Thank you for your hard work, Weiguo!"
No matter how good Xu Damao's lies sound, an unknown origin is an unknown origin.
Otherwise, you could just send it directly to the cultural relic store!
Do you need to find a buyer in private?
Cao Weiguo went to Bai Yang Alley and handed the matter to Li Jiannan, Dong Xiaoxue's follower.
Li Jiannan is a proper Manchu, and his speech and actions have a certain style.
Changing into the best clothes, wearing a black felt hat, sticking on a fake mustache, wearing small glasses, putting on shiny leather shoes, and wearing the watch Cao Weiguo took out.
As soon as Li Jiannan appeared and took his stance, a few words made Xu Damao stunned.
Xu Damao took out the thing diligently: "Please take a look."
Li Jiannan played with the gold bowl pretendingly: "The quality is good, the weight is also okay, it's about 80% gold, it's a pretty good item. Tell me a number, let me hear it."
Xu Damao was full of joy: "One thousand yuan!"
Li Jiannan sneered: "One thousand? You really want to eat a fat man in one bite!"
Xu Damao gritted his teeth: "Nine hundred, what do you think?"
Li Jiannan: "I can tell you're not in the business. Although you can ask for a high price and bargain on the spot, you want to swallow an elephant as soon as you open your mouth. Do you think I'm a fool with too much money?"
Xu Damao turned to look at Cao Weiguo, only to see Cao Weiguo sitting by the window looking at the scenery.
His eyes didn't look this way at all, obviously not wanting to manage this matter.
Xu Damao had no choice but to bargain with Li Jiannan.
After a fierce battle of words, he finally got sixty-five big black tens.
Six hundred and fifty yuan made Xu Damao a bit unwilling.
He originally hoped to earn three or five hundred yuan in one go, but who would have thought that after working hard for a long time, he only earned one hundred and fifty yuan.
This is too different from what he expected!
After Li Jiannan got the thing, he greeted Cao Weiguo and turned to leave.
Xu Damao held the money and muttered: "Weiguo, your friend is quite ruthless in cutting the price!"
Cao Weiguo said: "He makes a living by this. Why? Are you not satisfied with the price?"
Xu Damao said: "Very unsatisfied. Selling it for so little money, I'm worried about how to explain it to my friend."
Cao Weiguo said: "Should I call him back?"
Xu Damao said hurriedly: "Don't! The thing has already been sold, how can there be any reason to go back on it! I'm just complaining, don't take it to heart. Thanks to your help today, otherwise, I don't know when this thing would have been sold. Let's go, brother treats you to roast duck!"
