Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps

This authentic painting by Tang Yin was bought from the night market by Sha Li, the shop owner, who was digging for gold.

The seller also knows the goods well, and the asking price is not cheap, costing the shop owner a full [-] Hong Kong dollars.

After getting the chrysanthemum picture, the shop owner went around looking for someone to repair it.

The Chrysanthemum Picture is an authentic work. As long as it can be repaired, it will not be a problem to sell it for hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

However, the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is very disappointing.

The shop owner took the chrysanthemum picture all over Hong Kong and asked everyone from university professors to folk experts, but no one could repair it.

He also became a joke among people in the industry, spending [-] Hong Kong dollars to buy a piece of waste paper.

Others said that the seller at the night market clearly knew what he was selling and knew that the painting could not be restored, so he asked for HK$[-].

Only people like shopkeepers who dream of pie-in-the-sky dreams would think of picking up the slack. If shopkeepers don’t give credit, who will give credit?

The shop owner was not an honest man. Not only did he offend his colleagues, he also ridiculed the buyers from the mainland, which aroused public outrage.

The shop owner and his daughter may not care about Yuan Ni and Li Fengxia, but they cannot care about these colleagues. Seeing how crowded everyone was, he could only bite the bullet and said,

"Everyone, please stop arguing. I, Mr. Li, keep my word. Two beauties, if you are really rich, how about taking away five thousand?"

He spent [-] Hong Kong dollars when he bought it, and now he has discounted it in half, plus the money spent on finding someone to repair it, it can be considered a hemorrhaging sale.

Li Fengxia stopped talking when she heard the price. Although she had money now, she was reluctant to spend it. What if it couldn't be repaired?

Five thousand Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to throwing it into the water. How many Sanyo cassette players can be bought with such money?

Yuanni's eyes were bright. She stared at the shop owner, "Really five thousand Hong Kong dollars?"

When things came to a close, the shop owner hesitated again. This was Tang Yin's original work.

The shop owner’s daughter leaned close to her father’s ear and whispered, “I’ve seen this kind of people a lot. They have at most a hundred Hong Kong dollars on them, which is just for going to the bathroom, and they can’t even afford to buy water.

Besides, this painting has been in our store for more than a year, and no one has come to ask about it, which proves that the painting is hopeless.

If she really has [-] Hong Kong dollars, then give it to her. It will save a little bit of the loss. "

After hearing what his daughter said, the shop owner made up his mind. He nodded seriously, "Just five thousand Hong Kong dollars."

Yuan Ni immediately took out the money. When she went out, she brought more than 1 Hong Kong dollars. She spent thousands on cassette players and TVs, and now she still has six or seven thousand.

She slapped all the money on the counter, counted out five thousand Hong Kong dollars, and then pushed it to the shop owner, "Wrap the painting for me."

The shop owner was stunned.

Seeing that the other party wanted to regret it, Yuan Ni smiled softly and said, "Do you mean what you say?"

Everyone in the audience laughed.

"Old Li, no wonder you can't make a fortune? You set the price yourself, and others paid for it, but you refused to sell it. How could you do business like this?"

"It's just a scrap of drawing paper like yours. It's not even burning. If someone offers you five thousand, it's a sky-high price. You should sell it quickly."

The shop owner looked unhappy, stood up reluctantly, and slowly put away the drawing paper, "This is Tang Yin's original work."

Yuan Ni ignored him and watched his every move, guarding against his evil intentions.

After the shopkeeper finally finished packing, Yuan Ni took the scroll over, pulled Li Fengxia and turned around to leave.

"Hey, why did you just leave? Leave an address?" Seeing Yuanni leave, the shop owner was filled with disappointment. He always felt that he had lost something important and could never get it back.

The onlookers laughed loudly, "When you sell calligraphy and painting, what address do you leave? Are you reluctant to part with it?"

On the way back, Yuan Ni bought everything needed to repair the painting.

Li Fengxia couldn't help but ask, "Nier, are you going to repair this painting yourself?"

"Correct."

Authentic works of Tang Yin are rare, and if repaired, they are priceless treasures.

Li Fengxia hesitated, "Shall I help you?"

Yuan Ni shook her head, "No, I just need to clean this painting, I can do it alone."

For some reason, Li Fengxia felt very uncomfortable. She obviously saw it, so why didn't she dare to buy it?

"If it's fixed, what are you going to do with it?"

Yuan Ni smiled and pointed to the Guardian Auction House in front, "Sell it directly."

Although Tang Yin's paintings are valuable, they are not scarce. This man was known as a romantic and talented man. He left countless works in his life. His masterpieces are stored in many museums in the mainland.

So even if it is a good thing, if there are too many of them in the world, that’s all.

Instead of struggling to pass the customs with the authentic work, it is better to auction it on the spot.

Li Fengxia had no idea what an auction house was. Yuan Ni gave her a brief introduction and then dragged her inside, "Let's ask about the procedures first."

A staff member received two people.

Guardian Auction House is a large auction house with its own magnanimity. The staff did not look down on Yuan Ni and Li Fengxia just because they were dressed shabby.

In order to ensure that the details were explained clearly, the staff even found a colleague who spoke Mandarin to communicate with them in Hong Kong Mandarin.

After learning that an auction would be held the day after tomorrow, Yuan Ni said that she would send the collection over tomorrow.

The staff member smiled and said, "Then you have to hurry up and prepare. After you send the collection over, we will have to ask someone to appraise it on site."

"Okay, I'll send it over as soon as possible."

In a hurry, after leaving the auction house, Yuan Ni didn't take the bus and directly paid for a taxi back to the hotel.

This trip cost more than 40 Hong Kong dollars. Li Fengxia watched Yuan Ni take out the money and couldn't help but said, "This is almost the same as the ticket from Hailan Island to the capital."

This is the case in Xiangjiang. If you want to save money, take the bus when going out, but if you are in a hurry, you have to take a taxi.

"You can sing whatever song you stand on any hilltop. People in Xiangjiang earn a lot. It's normal to spend dozens of yuan on a car. There are also many people who buy their own cars." Yuan Ni said with a smile.

"The pretty girl is right, time is money. It's worth spending dozens of dollars to earn more money." The taxi driver agreed with a smile while giving Yuanni change.

After returning to the hotel, Yuan Ni wanted to get another room, but she was stopped by Li Fengxia. She was very surprised, "Nier, you can repair the paintings in our room. I won't cause trouble for you, so why waste money?" ?”

Yuanni hesitated for a moment, "Let's open one."

"You are so generous. You can do it in our room."

Li Fengxia couldn't help but dragged Yuan Ni away. When she returned to the room, she locked the door and said, "Hurry up and get started. I promise not to disturb you."

Yuan Ni could only smile and said, "Well, when the work is done, I'll treat you to dinner."

Time was tight and there was no room for too much politeness. Yuan Ni stopped talking nonsense and started repairing the painting.

Li Fengxia sat aside and watched, unable to calm down for a long time.

Yuanni didn't care about the other person's mood at all and was busy minding her own business.

Unlike Zhang?'s painting, this Tang Yin's painting was simply burned by fire, so the repair process was simpler.

As the repair work progressed to a critical moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

At this moment, Yuanni was holding the painting and didn't dare to let go. The table was full of repair materials. She couldn't help but frown. There was a Do Not Disturb sign hanging outside the door. Who was knocking on the door?

Li Fengxia hesitated for a moment, "How about I go take a look?"

"Don't go. If it's official business, the leading teacher will notify you by phone."

"But..." Li Fengxia looked at the door and then at Yuanni. She hesitated to speak. She still wanted to open the door and take a look. What if something happened to the family?
