American Legendary Life

After soaking in a comfortable hot bath, the cold in the body dissipated, and Li Zitao changed into the clothes he bought on the street.

Although it is not a high-end brand, but the material is pure cotton, comfortable.

Picking up the pocket watch on the table, Li Zitao shook helplessly, and the water droplets inside ‘lili’ rang.

"BOSS." Opening the door, the monk wrapped in an oversized cotton coat sat in the hallway.

"Go to the bank first, I need money to repair the pocket watch." Li Zitao said without a word.

"I'll call for a car." I found a comfortable carriage in front of the hotel and went straight to the bank.

First Bank and Union Bank have no branches here, but this does not hinder his plan.

There are countermeasures on the top and policies on the bottom, since ancient times.

So after a few calls, Li Zitao received $10,000 in cash and a brand new checkbook.

With his pockets full, Li Zitao asked the driver to take them to the most famous watch repair shop here.

At this time, there were many watch repair shops. After all, pocket watches are a kind of precious and popular thing, and they often need maintenance and repair.

The carriage stopped in front of a bustling alley. Li Zitao stepped off the carriage and looked up at the old shop on the roadside for some years.

‘Cruse ancient watch shop,’ a sense of the times.

Dingdong~~

Pushing open the wooden door with glass, the old shop is in sight, a long corridor, and the glass shelves on both sides are filled with all kinds of clocks and pocket watches.

The yellowed wooden cabinets are full of intimacy, and they squeaked as they stepped on the floor.

Tick, in the ticking sound, people seem to walk on the time corridor.

"Welcome, can I help you?" a white man with white temples and a slender white man asked from the shop.

"I'll fix the watch." Li Zitao smiled with a pocket watch.

"Come in!" the man said casually.

At the end of the corridor is a workshop of about 20 square meters. The table is filled with various parts. The other party is changing gears for a bronze clock.

The most striking thing is not the bronze bell, but the slender and slender fingers of the other party.

"It's a pity not to talk about the piano with these hands." Li Zitao said in disapproval.

"Show me." The brass bell snapped back, and the other person turned around and said.

Li Zitao handed him the watch, seeing the pattern on it, Cruz's drooping pupil contracted into a needle, and the thumb unconsciously wiped gently on the watch cover.

"Have you seen this pocket watch?" Li Zitao asked with some curiosity when he found that the other party was not speaking for a long time.

"...He was created by my great-grandfather." Bruce looked up at him, turned to sit at the table, and opened the pocket watch skillfully.

"West?" Li Zitao asked tentatively.

"Who?" Bruce looked back curiously, and the confusion in his eyes was not like fake.

"It's okay." Li Zitao shook his head and couldn't help but laugh.

How could you meet a watchmaker casually, a descendant of Habsburg, too many coincidences in this world?

"You can just take a look, I need some time." Bruce said without looking up.

"Okay." Li Zitao replied casually, admiring the clocks on the shelves on both sides of the corridor.

Unconsciously, Li Zitao was immersed in this short ‘time corridor’, with all kinds of superb craftsmanship, exquisitely patterned clocks and pocket watches, which attracted his attention.

"The 18K gold pocket watch produced by the royal family of country Y in 1890. Its cover is made of pure gold, inlaid with 32 gems, and has a sun, moon, star and fine three hands.

This is the pinnacle of craftsmanship of that era, and you have a good vision. "

Bruce wore gloves and handed the repaired and repaired pocket watch to Li Zitao.

"Thank you." After taking the pocket watch, Li Zitao found that the light scratches on the surface had disappeared, opened the watch cover, and the dial and the inner core also looked like a new look.

Close to the ear and listened, the mechanical "tick, tick" is more crisp.

"It's used very well, I hope you can keep it safe." Bruce said looking at the pocket watch in his hand.

"Of course." Li Zitao put away his pocket watch with satisfaction, pointing to the gold pocket watch in the cabinet: "Is it for sale?"

"All pocket watches here have prices." Bruce nodded.

Hearing what he said, Li Zitao pointed out with interest: "I will have all this."

18K gold-set pocket watch, a Patek Philippe diamond-set wristband jewelry watch, Cartier's 22 diamond ladies watch.

A bronze bell shaped like a cupid driving a swan car. The seat is a very interesting gold leaf shape, and there is a baby angel seat at the bottom. The shape is 3854 dollars, the repair cost is 50 dollars, a total of 3900 dollars. . "Bruce took things out of the cabinet and put them on the table."

"I took advantage of your $4." Li Zitao took out the check and wrote down the amount.

"That's for you to drink coffee." Bruce smiled.

"..." Damn American humor.

Pass the check to the other party, the monk is moving things, the first move is the angel-shaped clock, it is the most expensive, worth 2,350 US dollars.

"It was a product of the royal family of country Y. The mechanical watch core was broken and auctioned by the royal family. I bought it and repaired it." This is Bruce's introduction.

Anyway, the relationship with the royal family this year will not be very cheap, especially the Windsor royal family as one of the strongest countries on the planet.

Holding Cupid's brass bell, Li Zitao just opened the door with his foot, and a small figure flashed across his chest.

Looking down, the newly repaired gem pocket watch is gone.

"Monk." He handed the bronze bell to the monk, and Li Zitao caught up.

The pocket watch was given to him by Whist. Whether it is for the old man or himself, its significance is more than value.

With his eyes locked on the dwarf figure shuttled by the crowd, Li Zitao guessed that he should be no more than 12 years old, "Junior repeat offender."

The little guy who steals things this year is more rampant than the future generations.

Most of them are family ‘industry’, sisters are watching, younger brothers are stealing, brothers and uncles solve troubles, parents sell stolen goods, and are very professional.

Sure enough, after chasing the other side into a dark alley, seven or eight teenagers with iron bars and daggers stuck in the middle.

"Give it back to me now, I promise you will not be punished." Li Zitao's "goodwill" burst into laughter.

"Look what this guy said, **** RB pig, hurry away." The leading teenager spit on the ground, carrying a 25cm machete on his shoulder.

"I agree with you, but I am Chinese, but not those short winter melons."

Li Zitao said with a grin, he lifted his right foot backwards and kicked forward suddenly.

Boom!

Carrying a machete, the leader of the king was fearless for the first second~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He was kicked by a kick more than 2 meters high, fell to the ground and rolled towards the end of the alley.

Goh!

The rebellious teenager who thought he was "fisting the world" swallowed saliva, and Nono backed away.

"Something." Li Zitao ignored their movements and just extended his hand.

"Sir, please be careful." A female voice came from behind, the wind rang above the head, a snapping sound, the door panel shattered into wood **** on Li Zitao's head.

"Slot!" Spit out the dust sticking to his mouth. Li Zitao grabbed the teenager next to him who wanted to run and lifted it and fell directly on the wall.

The other party didn't even have time to scream, and his eyes fainted.

"Give you a nice face, really kind and kind-hearted?" The two stepped forward and squeezed their heads like a clenched hand.

boom!

The two brains slammed together, making a dull drum sound, but Li Zitao didn't mean to stop.

If you don’t listen when you say it well, then don’t say it, lift the table!

A punch, kick, cough, a bit exaggerated.

The real situation is as if the eagle is catching a chick, and when it is lifted up, it is a thief who is holding a pocket watch, shaking his legs, and dripping between the crotch.

Reaching for the pocket watch, Li Zitao slapped it on his brain, not much effort, but this guy rolled his eyes and wriggled on the ground in a playful manner.

"..." Don't be a movie emperor with this acting, mdzz~~

Patting the ash on his body, Li Zitao walked out of the alley and came to the carriage. He pressed his right hand against his chest and bowed slightly; "Thank you for your reminder, beautiful lady."

"How can you be sure of my appearance?" The formerly female voice came again from the gorgeously decorated and covered carriage.

It's just a bit more ridiculous smile and curiosity than before.
