Quick Wear: I am the shopkeeper at the Merit Pawn Shop

When the argument was getting intense, Jin Qiang took a step forward.

"What are you arguing about? This is my relative. He told me a few days ago that he would come. What happened to me lining up for him? Do I need to notify you?"

At this time, Shen Mo also put down the cabinet, handed a cigarette to each of the people in the front line, and smiled.

"Sorry, sorry, I live far away, and it's not easy to go back and forth."

Because of what the Jin family member said, the people in the queue did not investigate the truth of the matter. Besides, Shen Mo had a good attitude, and these people did not want to offend the Jin family. After smoking Shen Mo's cigarette, they stopped making trouble.

Shen Mo walked in carrying the cabinet.

The room was pitch black, and it took Shen Mo a few seconds for his eyes to adjust to the darkness.

I saw three or four men in front of me, all of them were in their thirties or forties, well-dressed.

"I heard from Qiangzi that your cabinet is from the Ming Dynasty. Is it confirmed that it is made of Huanghuali?"

The man closest to Shen Mo spoke first.

"Yes."

"Open it and check the goods!" the man ordered without any further ado.

Shen Mo untied the sheets covering the cabinet.

A middle-aged man nearby took out a flashlight and shone it on the entire cabinet.

"At a glance, it is indeed a Ming Dynasty style. Peel it off."

Following the man's order, two people nearby came forward with a piece of cloth with a slightly pungent smell and wiped the cabinet until all the paint was wiped off.

This is also to prevent every piece of wood from being original and not replaced.

When Shen Mo got it, he just used diesel to wipe off a part of it for identification. He was not as careful as these people. This taught the novice Shen Mo a lesson that he must be meticulous in doing things.

The appraiser took out a lighter and shone it on various parts of the wood. The more he looked, the more delighted he became.

"The cabinet is a Ming Dynasty Wanli cabinet, and the items are indeed from the late Ming Dynasty. It is made of huanghuali wood. The cabinet is also very well maintained and there is no damage."

Hearing the appraiser say this, the butler's mouth curled up.

He looked at Shen Mo: "What's your name, little brother?"

"The boy's name is Shen Mo."

"Did you ask someone to look at this cabinet or did you know it from being passed down from your ancestors?" the housekeeper asked curiously.

"I'm sorry, I bought this cabinet not long ago. I've been interested in studying these since I was a kid."

"Are you studying on your own or is someone guiding you?" the butler asked calmly.

"When I was a child, there lived an old monk in a dilapidated temple on a nearby mountain. I liked to go to the temple to play when I had nothing to do. The monk taught me some things after a while. It was not until the monk died that I knew what he taught me."

What Shen Mo said was half true and half false. There was indeed a dilapidated temple on the nearby mountain, and there used to be an old monk there, but the old monk was a mute and could not speak at all.

When the original owner was called a bastard, he would go to the old monk to talk when he felt depressed. After saying those words, the original owner would feel much more relieved.

Once, when the original owner went there again, he saw the cold body of the old monk. The original owner was only twelve years old that year. He ran down the mountain and called people to collect the body of the old monk.

"Then you are quite lucky, little brother. If you have this kind of huanghuali in your hands in the future, any one before Daoguang will do, you can call me directly." The housekeeper handed Shen Mo a business card with a smile.

"Are you leaving?" Shen Mo took the business card. If they were not going to leave, there was no need for these people to give him their business cards.

"My master has to go back eventually. By the way, I forgot to ask you the price. What is your desired price?" asked the housekeeper.

"This is my first time doing this business, so you can decide how much you want to give me!"

"If it's a domestic buyer, 10,000 or 20,000 yuan would be the maximum, but I believe in your vision, so let's just treat it as making a friend, how about 100,000 yuan?"

"I'd like to thank Mr. Fu here." Shen Mo knew that he was getting a good deal by offering this price.

Nowadays, even if you go to the county to buy a very good house, it only costs a few thousand yuan.

Of course he also knew that this was just the beginning.

After taking out the money, Shen Mo went to the cooperative to deposit the money first, then came back to fulfill his promise and treated Jin Qiang to a meal.

The others also had to maintain order, so Shen Mo did not hesitate to give each of them a pack of cigarettes.

I went into the best restaurant in town and asked for a private room.

After ordering the dishes, Jin Qiang patted Shen Mo's shoulder, his eyes full of envy.

"It seems like you've made a lot of money, brother."

"It's also luck."

"To be honest, I envy you guys too."

"Then why don't you do it?"

The Jin family has an advantage in this business. The overseas Jin family and the Jin family are our relatives.

We are from the same clan and clan, so the price will definitely not be lower.

"It's not that easy. First of all, you have to identify the wood. Someone in our clan went to the countryside to collect it. Someone said it was a mahogany bed from the Qianlong period, so he believed it and bought it. It turned out to be a bed from the Republic of China. The wood had also been replaced, except for a few main beams that were mahogany, and the rest were ordinary wood. The water inside was too deep, and I couldn't handle it with my weak arms and legs." Jin Qiang shook his head repeatedly.

"I heard from the housekeeper that we are going to leave here. What are your plans for the future?" Shen Mo ate a peanut and looked at Jin Qiang.

"My uncle said he would give us some money to do business, but I'm not cut out for it, so I'd better give up the idea. I wonder if you need any help? If so, how about letting me run some errands for you?" Jin Qiang looked at Shen Mo and his eyes suddenly lit up as he suggested.

He remembered the faint words of praise from the butler in the room that had been heard before.

"Didn't you just talk about small arms and legs?" Shen Mo felt strange. Why did Jin Qiang change his mind?

"I heard the housekeeper's praise of you in the room. In such a long time, the housekeeper has collected no more than this number of items."

Jin Qiang held out five fingers.

"I heard that those people before were all leaders in this industry. You, a young man, can have such vision, I believe you." Jin Qiang thinks it is better to get to know people early. If someone like Shen Mo becomes famous in this industry, people will simply look down on him.

"Is it a waste of my talent to run errands? I just happened to be lucky this time."

Jin Qiang's eyes dimmed. He really wanted to be with Shen Mo, but Shen Mo's refusal was also within his expectations. After all, Shen Mo looked like just a young boy.

"But if the two of us team up together, I think it's still feasible."

His originally dim eyes instantly brightened up because of Shen Mo's words.

Jin Qiang's mouth opened into an incredible arc.

"From now on, I will definitely follow your lead, Brother Shen. If you say east, I will never go west."

"Then let's give it a try?!" The two men high-fived each other.

The first reason for choosing to cooperate with Jin Qiang is the natural concern between Jin Qiang and the Jin family. If the two parties want to do business in the future, with Jin Qiang's presence, not only can the relationship between the two parties be maintained, but they will also not suffer a loss in terms of price.

Moreover, Shen Mo also had his own plans and wanted to get to know more people through the Jin family.

Another thing is that he alone attracts too much attention, and Jin Qiang's identity as a member of the Jin family is a shield.
