Repairer Chapter 122

  Chapter 122 Master! (superior)

  After supper, Su Xiaofan went back to his room to rest.

  It is said to be resting, but it is actually meditating and practicing, and practicing is like sailing against the current, if you do not advance, you will retreat.

  Although Su Xiaofan cheated systematically, he still took some time every day to exercise his energy and move his energy to clear his meridians.

   But practicing in the Ao Island Hotel is obviously not a good place.

  As soon as Su Xiaofan was about to meditate, all kinds of panting sounds rushed to his ears, almost driving Su Xiaofan into a trance.

   After completely shutting down the six senses, Su Xiaofan was able to calm down, but today the time for entering into samadhi was much longer.

  The next morning, at the appointed time, Ah Guang called Su Xiaofan. He had arranged breakfast downstairs.

  Su Xiaofan knew that after Brother Guang went back to the hotel room yesterday, he went out again in the middle of the night. He was sleeping soundly, so he didn't bother to call him, so he went downstairs with the bag containing more than one million Hong Kong dollars.

   After breakfast, Ah Guang took Su Xiaofan to the hotel entrance and drove to Ao Island.

   I don't know if it's because of the money I made yesterday, but the original business car turned into a Rolls-Royce with a dedicated driver.

  The place where Ao Island first developed was on the main island, and the area is not large. This is the most central place of Ao Island.

  Due to the size of the area, the development of Ao Island has always been troubled. Later, the island began to be reclaimed, and Taipa Island was born from this.

  However, due to the short development time, hotels and casinos are the most numerous on Taipa Island, and the rest of the business is far inferior to that on the island.

  It's like a **** shop, basically all of them are concentrated on this island, this is the place Su Xiaofan is going to go to today.

  The time when pawnshops were most popular should be in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. There were no idea how many pawnshops there were in a single ten-mile foreign market.

  The pawnshops at that meeting collected the most antique calligraphy and paintings. It can be said that every big shopkeeper of a pawnshop is a master at appraising antiques.

  However, due to various reasons, pawnshops disappeared in China for a while.

  Although there are now, most of them only accept pawns of real estate securities, gold jewelry, and antiques, which are rare in **** shops.

  Uncle Jing learned that Su Xiaofan was coming to O Island, so he specifically told him to visit the **** shops in O Island, maybe he would gain something.

  Because the **** shop on O Island is for gamblers.

Those gamblers who are jealous of gambling can even export their wives, let alone the items they carry with them. They can't wait to leave only a pair of underwear on their bodies, **** all other things into money, and then go back to Casino double.

   There are also some inland gamblers who have lost their eyes. They have some good things at home, but it is not easy to cash them out.

  Therefore, with the rise of the gambling industry, the pawnshops on the island of Australia have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain.

  The streets surrounding Puting Hotel are almost all pawnshops, at least thousands of them.

  Ah Guang asked the driver to park the car on a street behind the Puting Hotel, and got out of the car with Su Xiaofan.

   "Brother Su, there are all **** shops here, we can't finish shopping all day."

  A Guang said with a smile: "I don't know what you want to buy, Brother Su. The most popular **** shop here is watches. There are many famous watches such as Patek Philippe and Rolex, and the prices are very low."

   "The young and Dangerous boys in Xiangjiang used to like to come here to buy and sell gold watches."

   "Those young and Dangerous boys have made money, they will come here to buy a second-hand gold watch, and they can sell it as travel expenses when they run away."

   "These tourists will stop playing if they lose, so they won't come to **** things?" Su Xiaofan asked casually.

   "It has nothing to do with tourists, the casino doesn't look down on them at all."

   Ah Guang curled his lips, let alone casinos, Junket Operators like them look down on tourists.

  In fact, casinos make money, and tourists only account for a very small proportion, which is almost negligible.

  The ones who really make money are those wealthy high rollers, that is, those who play in the VIP room. Those people really spend a lot of money playing.

  But as long as there are rich people who fall into the "tender trap" of the casino, it is estimated that nine out of ten will end up bankrupt.

  So many of their famous watches, jewelry, and even brand-name suits were pledged to the **** shop.

  Pawn shops are divided into dead pawns and live pawns. Dead pawns give more money, while live pawns give less money because they can be redeemed, and **** shops charge some interest from it.

  However, regardless of whether it is a dead **** or a live pawn, none of the items that can be redeemed in the end basically fall into the **** shop.

   "I don't want to watch, see if there are any interesting antiques?"

  Su Xiaofan stood on the street and looked into his eyes. As expected, the shops on both sides of this street were densely packed with almost all kinds of pawnshops, with various names.

  Walk into a **** shop at random, and in the glass cabinet where you can see, there are all kinds of watches, and there are also many gold ornaments, and there are several chains as thick as the little finger.

   "Boss, what do you want?"

  Seeing the two people come in, a middle-aged man sitting behind the counter stood up. There are so many **** shops, and their business is not very good now.

  The people who open pawnshops in Ao Island are generally locals. Boss means the boss, and what do you want? What do you want?

   "I want to buy some antiques, do you have any in your store?"

  Su Xiaofan said straight to the point, there are so many pawnshops here, how could he have the time to argue with the boss.

   "Antique, yes, please wait."

  Hearing Su Xiaofan speak Mandarin, the boss immediately switched from vernacular, turned around and entered the room in front of the door.

   In about ten seconds, the middle-aged boss took out a 40 to 50 centimeters tall statue that was shining golden all over.

   "Boss, this is the portrait of Guan Erye, sent by a street boy.

  It is said that it has been placed in his house for 70 or 80 years, and it has been placed since his grandfather's generation. I asked someone to check, and the outside is still gilded. "

  The middle-aged boss strongly recommended this Second Master Guan to Su Xiaofan.

   In Ao Island, gold-plated gold watches are easy to sell, but few people buy this kind of statue of Guan Erye, because very few people would buy Guan Erye from a **** shop.

   "Boss, this thing has nothing to do with antiques. If you don't have one, forget it."

Su Xiaofan shook his head dumbfounded, he used to watch TV, and often saw that the shop on the Xiangjiang side liked to worship Guan Erye, unexpectedly there was such a thing, there was also a niche on the wall of this shop, inside which was offering Guan Erye God's statue.

   "Does jade count?" The middle-aged boss asked unwillingly.

   "Jade is okay, take it out and have a look." Su Xiaofan nodded.

   "Look, it's all here."

  The store owner bent down and pulled out a drawer from below, and placed it on the glass cabinet together with the drawer.

  In the drawer, there are more than ten pieces of finished jade. Obviously, the shop owner doesn't pay much attention to these things.

   "How much is this jade cicada?"

  Su Xiaofan pointed to a Bai Yuchan with a reddish appearance and asked.

   "This one, it costs two thousand yuan."

  The middle-aged boss thought about it, and offered a price that he thought was expensive.

  Jade wares are different from famous gold watches. Except that jadeite can be sold more expensively, it is difficult for these store owners to identify Hetian jade.

  So usually when someone pawns jade, they will give a very low price, sometimes even thirty or fifty or one or two hundred.

  At some gaming tables in the Odao Casino, the minimum bet is one or two hundred.

   As a result, many pawnshops have accumulated a lot of jade wares, and the middle-aged boss offered a price of 2,000, which is already a sky-high price.

   "Five hundred, I'll take it."

  Su Xiaofan said.

   "That's impossible, at least eighteen thousand."

  The owner of the store shook his head repeatedly, "It cost me 1500 yuan."

   "Three hundred, I will sell it."

  Su Xiaofan turned and walked out, turned around and said, "Do you know what this is? This is the jade plug that blocks the seven orifices of the dead after death."

   "You dare to keep such a sinister thing, and you are lucky if you don't go bankrupt!"

  Su Xiaofan's last sentence seems to be talking to himself, and his body has already left the door of the **** shop.

   "Hey, wait...wait!"

  Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, the middle-aged boss chased him out anxiously, grabbed Su Xiaofan, his voice trembling, "Boss, are you telling the truth?"

  People in Xiangjiang and Ao Island all believe in feng shui and numerology, and especially taboo these evil things. Hearing that the jade cicada was from a dead person, the middle-aged boss's legs were a little weak from fright.

   "I'm fine, why lie to you?"

  Su Xiaofan said with a smile: "You go out to the Pearl River, just ask anyone who knows a little bit of archaeological knowledge, and you will know."

   "Then... is this thing worth money?"

  The middle-aged boss asked a little unwillingly, if it is a real valuable item, it is considered a sinister item, and it cannot be sold cheaply.

   "That's what I want, you can't sell it to others."

  Su Xiaofan said: "Let me tell you the truth, I bought this thing with the intention of destroying it to prevent it from harming others!"

   "Destroy?" The middle-aged boss froze for a moment.

  Su Xiaofan nodded and said, "Well, have you felt sleepy all day long recently?"

"how do you know?"

  The middle-aged boss was shocked, he really had the symptoms Su Xiaofan mentioned recently, "Is this the reason?"

  Thinking that this jade cicada was thrown in the warehouse before, and it was brought to the store recently, the middle-aged boss couldn't help but believe Su Xiaofan's words.

   "Three hundred, will you sell it?"

  Su Xiaofan counted out three hundred yuan banknotes from the bag, and put them on the glass cabinet.

   "Sell, sell, take it yourself."

   Hearing from Su Xiaofan that the jade cicada was an object of a dead person, the middle-aged boss didn't even want to touch it.

   "The money is there, you keep it."

  Su Xiaofan reached out and picked up the jade cicada.

  【Qinxue Yuchan, can be absorbed, is it absorbed? 】

  Su Xiaofan looked at the information in his mind, with a satisfied smile on his face, he didn't expect that the first **** shop he entered today would surprise him.

  In Su Xiaofan's induction, this jade cicada exudes a trace of evil spirit, which is somewhat similar to the Yin stone he once absorbed.

  As soon as Su Xiaofan entered the door, when he didn't see Yuchan, he felt the evil spirit, and unexpectedly he was able to absorb it after seeing it, that was a surprise.

   "Boss, I won't lie to you, it's better to destroy this thing."

  Su Xiaofan put Yuchan in the palm of his hand and seemed to squeeze it hard, but in fact he gave the order to absorb it in his mind.

  【Repair value: 87 points! 】

   "Increased the repair value by two points? Not bad!"

  Although the repair value is only two points more, the mosquito is still meat no matter how small it is, not to mention it only cost Su Xiaofan 300 yuan, so the price should not be too high, okay?

  After Su Xiaofan let go of his palm, the jade cicada had turned into a pinch of powder and fell from Su Xiaofan's palm.

   "Oh My God!!"

  The eyes of the middle-aged boss were all stared straight, and he couldn't help throwing out a sentence in English. He didn't expect that the other party said that the destruction was actually done in this way.

  Although jade is not as hard as stone, and it will be damaged if dropped on the ground, it does not mean that it can be ground into powder by hand. How strong is the hand.

   "Master, I'm sorry, this... this money, you should take it back."

  Turning stones into powder is definitely a master, and it is beyond the imagination of the middle-aged boss.

  The middle-aged boss doesn't dare to ask for Su Xiaofan's money at this moment, he can't wait to give Su Xiaofan more money, and let him take a good look for himself, whether there are any sinister items in the store.

   "Why don't you pay for things?"

  Su Xiaofan waved his hand and stepped out of the **** shop. Except for this **** jade cicada, there is nothing worthy of his hand in this shop.

   "Brother Su, you, what kind of kung fu are you doing?"

   Ah Guang, who has been following Su Xiaofan as a transparent person, also looked straight at him, and didn't react until he followed Su Xiaofan out of the **** shop.

   "Where is the kung fu."

  Su Xiaofan said with a smile: "When I was young, the adults at home let me pinch walnuts to play, and I could only eat them when I pinched them. If you pinch too much, your hands will become stronger. It's not a lot of effort."

  Su Xiaofan started talking nonsense, but his words also had some basis.

  I often squeezed walnuts since I was a child. I really practice finger skills. Although I can't crush walnuts into powder, when shaking hands with others, crushing the other's fingers is a breeze.

  In the Sujia Village where Su Xiaofan lives, there are people who practice this kind of kung fu. They usually drink beer in summer and never use a screwdriver. The bottle cap will fly off with just a push of a finger.

   "This man can't be messed with."

  Ah Guang was a little afraid of Su Xiaofan when he saw that expression when he was playing cards yesterday, but now he is even more convinced that this is definitely someone he can't afford to mess with, even his brother-in-law.

   "Let's go, there are so many pawnshops, some of them have seen it."

  Su Xiaofan felt Ah Guang's timidity towards him, so he didn't say much. When you go out these days, it's better for others to be afraid of you than to plot against you.

  Walking into the second **** shop, Su Xiaofan still opened his mouth to buy antiques, the same as the previous one, there were none in the shop, but there were a few pieces of jade.

  There is no jade in this store that Su Xiaofan needs, as soon as there is no ancient jade and no **** jade, Su Xiaofan turns around and leaves the **** shop.

  But when Su Xiaofan entered the third **** shop, he was treated as a distinguished guest by the boss. He not only offered a cup of tea, but also took out a cigar for Su Xiaofan to taste.

   After saying a few words, Su Xiaofan suddenly felt dumbfounded.

   It turned out to be the owner of the first **** shop. He talked about the master Su Xiaofan in their group, and was recognized by the owner as soon as he entered the door.

   "Master, help me to see if there are any evil things in my shop?"

  People in Ao Island are very taboo about these things, but they usually can't invite a master from Xiangjiang. Although this one is young, the photo of the jade powder taken in the group shows that this master is still capable.

   "Master, as long as you read it for me, you can take three pieces of these jades, and I won't charge a cent."

  The owner of the **** shop was also on the road, directly took out more than ten pieces of jade from the counter, and placed them in front of Su Xiaofan.

   "Many of these unearthed things have been pawned."

  Su Xiaofan saw one of the blood jades at a glance, and an absorbable message came to his mind.

   "This thing is not right, it will affect the business if left in the store for a long time."

  Su Xiaofan picked up the **** jade wrench, rubbed it in his palm, and the hard jade turned into a piece of powder and fell down.

  【Repair value: 88 points! 】

   This blood jade finger only added a little repair value to Su Xiaofan, but Su Xiaofan is already very satisfied, he can earn repair value without spending a penny, how can there be such a good thing.

  Su Xiaofan has decided that if he can't finish shopping at these **** shops today, he will stay for another day, and find a hotel nearby, and continue shopping tomorrow.

  As for the blood-soaked jade that can increase the repair value, Su Xiaofan guessed that it was caused by the evil spirit, but compared with the Yin stone, the jade contains too little Yin evil energy, so the increased repair value is far less than that of the Yin stone.

   "Oops, I feel that this period of time seems to be a bit wrong, thank you master, thank you master!"

  After Su Xiaofan "crushed" the jade finger, the owner of the **** shop suddenly felt lighter, as if something bad had left him.

The owner of the store who was a little doubtful about whether this was the real master, now he was sure of it, and quickly pushed the more than ten pieces of jade to Su Xiaofan's eyes, and said: "Master, I have given them all to you, you can take all of them." Take it!"

   "What do I want these things for, they're rubbish."

  Su Xiaofan shook his head, and when he was about to turn around and leave, his eyes suddenly fixed on a small brown stone with some soil on it.

   "Is this also jade?" Su Xiaofan picked up the small stone.

   "Unearthed stuff."

  The store owner said with some distaste: "A person introduced by a friend pawned it over. This batch of jade belongs to that person. You want to take it all away."

  What the store owner didn't say was that he only gave 800 Hong Kong papers for these more than ten pieces of jade, and two of them were sold last year for a total of 4800 Hong Kong dollars.

   "I want this, you can keep the rest." Su Xiaofan took a look at the small curved stone and put it in the bag.

  【Late Shang Dynasty: Yulong! 】

  When Su Xiaofan walked out the door, seeing the information in his mind, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. This object, which is only three or four centimeters in size, is actually a jade artifact from the late Shang Dynasty.

  When Su Xiaofan was hanging out in the Luochuan antique market, he had studied jade quite well. This kind of jade is definitely eligible to be auctioned, but I don't know why it was omitted in this **** shop.

  Actually, what Su Xiaofan doesn't know is that usually when a **** shop receives a **** that is uncertain, it will find a special appraisal expert to help appraise it.

   But there is a fee for expert appraisal. For a piece of jade, they will charge two to three hundred yuan for appraisal.

  Because there are not many valuable jade articles, usually after the **** shop appraises them, they can't even earn back the appraisal fee.

   After going back and forth, the pawnshops, apart from receiving jadeite, don't take jadeites that look average in appearance, and put them in the store at a random price for sale.

  So in most **** shops, there are almost some unidentified jade or other objects.

  There are many tourists who come to travel. They always feel that the pawnshops sell good things. They come to Taobao excitedly, and a large part of the jade is digested from them.

   "What kind of master have I really become?"

  When Su Xiaofan walked into the fourth store, the boss was already sweeping the couch to greet him, and he was very affectionate with each bite.

   Not only that, Su Xiaofan found out that the owner of the fifth store was standing at the door of his own store looking up at him, wishing that Su Xiaofan could go to their **** shop right now.

   Master Su asks for some recommended monthly tickets! !
