are connected by the teacher. I don't even know where I am now. Please, don't hurt me."“" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!This woman is beautiful, a real mixed-blood. Lea...The wealthy in Hong Kong are numerous, and for these people, as long as something is good, they don't mind the price.
The transaction is done in two steps. The buyer leaves someone at the hotel to watch the goods, and Red Sister and I go with the buyer to collect the money. After we receive the money, we notify the head, and then the person at the hotel can take the goods away directly.
This way, both parties' interests can be protected, and it can also prevent black-eating-black incidents like package switching and counterfeit goods.
The elderly man with white hair surnamed Li, I won't mention his specific name. They engage in family-style business transactions, covering real estate, tourism, catering, and investment, holding a prominent position among the wealthy circle in our local area.
There is a villa on the north side of Moro Street, next to the mountain. My sister and I followed him into the villa.
The villa's reception room is decorated with understated luxury. On the central hall wall hangs Xu Beihong's masterpiece, "Horses Galloping." To the left and right are Huang Zhou's "Donkeys" and Qi Baishi's "Shrimp," respectively. What impressed me most was a massive "Snowy Scenery of Lishan Mountain" by Huang Gongwang, an artist from the Yuan Dynasty, spanning over 20 square feet.
The reason I remember this so vividly is because nine years later, Huang Gongwang's "Rich Spring Mountain Residence Diagram" was merged into one and became a national treasure. To this day, I speculate that Huang Gongwang's snow scene painting is still hidden in the Lee family in Hong Kong.
After pouring tea and taking a seat, the elder smiled at me and said: "Don't worry, your financial officer has gone to get the seal. Drink some tea first. Young man, where is your ancestral home in China"
The Longjing tea was fragrant, with a lingering aroma after each sip. I put down my cup and said, "I'm from Mohe in northeast China."
"
"
The old man smiled and said, "You're truly a person from the three northeastern provinces. Even at a young age, you have such courage. Who knows, you might become famous someday."
I said you're too kind. I'm just a small errand runner, running around for people.
After hearing this, he said again that one shouldn't be too self-deprecating, youth is capital.
I chatted with Lao Hong and the elderly man. Through my interaction with him, I learned that he loves to collect artifacts from some ancient mysterious kingdoms. For example, Loulan Kingdom, Xixia, Yilong Kingdom, Ancient Dian and Shu, Xiangxiong Kingdom, Ancient Guge Dynasty, etc. This kind of collecting hobby of wealthy people is incomprehensible to ordinary people. The key is that these kinds of things are extremely rare, and most of them are unique pieces. In other words, this man has been in contact with tomb robbers quite a bit in his life, and he knows exactly what we are doing.
He was interested in tomb robbing, from excavating in Luoyang to searching for ancient tombs, he knew everything about it. After finishing his story, he asked me what I thought, saying if it was right or wrong.
Actually, what he said was mostly right, but we insiders could tell that he was more theoretical than practical. Although he had dealt with grave robbers many times, he probably had never gone down into a tomb himself.
For example, he said that when using a shovel in Luoyang, you should turn it three times to the left and two times to the right. This is incorrect. The correct way is to turn it two times to the left and two times to the right. This way, the soil layer brought up by the shovel will be even and won't fall off.
"Sir, just stamp it and fill in the numbers and sign your name," At that moment, someone came in and handed him a blank check.
The elderly man didn't hesitate, he put on his glasses and took a look, after confirming there was no problem, he filled in the amount directly.
This is a check for money transfer.
He passed it to me for me to check, but I didn't understand it, so I asked Red Sister to confirm it.
He said, "The check is valid for ten days, remember to pick it up. I'll ask the finance department to get a check holder for you. Be careful not to crease the check."

Hong Jie looked carefully and then got up to reach out her hand: "Thank you, Mr. Li, it was a pleasure doing business with you."
"
"
"It was a pleasure to meet you," the old man said with a smile as he shook hands with Hongjie. "My friend told me that things have been tense recently, so you should be careful. You can rest assured here; my private collection will never leak."
“
Hong Jie called to inform us that she had received the down payment, and then we left the villa.
Running so far, I didn't expect the business to be completed so quickly. Over the phone, his voice sounded very happy. He said the opportunity was rare and asked Sister Hong to bring back a check. I could just move around freely, buying whatever I liked. It was a rare chance.
That's it, Hong Jie took a taxi back to the hotel. I thought I'd just wander around Moro Street for a bit.
This street is narrow and crowded, but there are plenty of good things. Three generations of official kiln ceramics were on display in the glass cabinets of shops lining the street. I asked about the prices with the hope of finding a bargain, but the shopkeepers were all too shrewd. It's too difficult to find a bargain under everyone's watchful eyes.
Hello.

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
I was just walking when someone suddenly patted me on the back.
I turned around to see a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed square glasses calling me.
"Nice to meet you, Wang Yuan."
He smiled and reached out his hand. said; "There's corpse qi, and it's so thick that it's turned black. This means the person inside the coffin hasn't decomposed yet, only white bones would not produce such a strong corpse qi.""It's go...
