"My son, I will try my best to cultivate him, but it depends on Shirley's wishes. In my opinion, being thick-skinned is more acceptable in society. As long as you are thick-skinned enough, you will never encounter anyone who lets you down. Things that embarrass you.”
Lin Feng didn't care at all what the fat man said about him being thick-skinned. This was a fact. He was already thick-skinned.
Several people came to the restaurant. The wooden dining table and wooden chairs were all so close to nature, which made Lin Feng feel very comfortable. After a few people sat down, the nanny began to serve dishes one by one, such as fish-flavored shredded pork, water, and so on. Boiled pork slices, couple's lung slices, mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork, dengying beef, spicy shrimp, spicy chicken, etc. are served one by one. The pungent spicy taste mixed with the numbness of Sichuan peppercorns makes people salivate for a while.
"Oh, the smell of Chinese food still makes people appetizing." The fat man said vaguely while swallowing his saliva.
"Then let's start eating, as if we are still in the wild. We can eat whatever we want. There are not so many rules. There are no elders here anyway." Shirley Yang spoke as the host, and the fat man took a chopstick as expected. The beef was put into the mouth,
"Well, it's really delicious. It seems like I can't live in this country forever. Otherwise, where can I go to eat such good Chinese food? I don't have Miss Yang's family background and can hire a nanny. Here I can only live every day. When I grow up eating junk food, I guess it won’t be long before I become the fat guy I saw on the street yesterday.”
"Well, you will be a real fat person at that time. It is difficult to move with all the fat. In the United States, the poorer you are, the fatter you are. Junk food is the cheapest and has a lot of calories. In the end, many poor people die of obesity. It’s too big, and the internal organs will eventually be exhausted.”
"Okay, madman, stop talking. Since you came here, you have been telling us how sad it is for the poor in the United States. We already know enough. Miss Yang is probably tired of hearing it, and we won't be The sugar-coated bullets here destroy our steely will, right? Fatty?" Hu Bayi saw something wrong with Shirley Yang's face and said quickly.
"Yes, yes, I told you, I can't bear to eat domestic food. If I come to this food desert, I will be tortured to death."
Lin Feng saw that Shirley's face looked a little bad, so he stopped talking and began to concentrate on the food in front of him. The meal was full of dishes and bowls, and everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Shirley Yang called the nanny to come up and clear away the dishes. They came to sit on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. The nanny made tea and brought it to her. Shirley Yang took a sip of the tea ceremony.
"Now let's talk about how to deal with these famous objects."
"Well, madman, tell me. You are familiar with the types of famous instruments and so on, and you have a lot of experience in traveling around. You tell me first, and then we will discuss it together." Hu Bayi said.
"Okay, then I'll start the conversation. I'll talk about the things that can be sold in the United States. First of all, it's the blue stone coffin and the gold skeleton inside it, as well as the stone coffin and most of the gold artifacts. You can sell them all here, and I believe they can be sold at a good price. The cellar coffin and the bronze coffin can be sold on Hong Kong Island. There are many rich people there who like these things with Chinese characteristics, so they should be sold at a good price. Also, Most of the jade can also be sold on Hong Kong Island. The remaining small part can be sold slowly in Panjiayuan, or it can be sold to Dajinya on behalf of others."
"Well, I basically agree with the madman. It's better to put these things in places where there are many rich people." Hu Bayi confirmed Lin Feng's statement.
Fatty and Shirley also felt that doing so could maximize their profits.
Shirley then contacted the person in charge of Sotheby's auction house in New York and asked them to come over and participate in the auction after appraising it. When the person in charge of the auction house came to the farm to appraise it, they were all excited.
"It is unheard of that cultural relics from two thousand years ago are so completely preserved, and there is such a magical coffin made of blue stone essence. There is also a beautifully made sarcophagus. What is even more rare is that the bones inside are still so completely preserved. I can guarantee that these two coffins will definitely be the highlight of this auction. As well as these piles of gold utensils, we would like to congratulate Miss Yang in advance for another large sum of US dollars."
"Thank you, I'll leave these cultural relics to you."
Shirley Yang stepped forward and shook hands with the person in charge. Just now, their company's lawyer and the person in charge of the auction house had drafted a consignment contract in Chinese and English. The two parties signed the contract, and the auction house paid into Shirley Yang's account. The deposit of 50 million US dollars was paid based on the value given by the appraiser. This money also made Lin Feng and others feel a little relieved.
After everyone in the auction house left, Fatty was already a little excited and confused. According to the exchange rate at that time, this was 100 million RMB. If he took it back, it would be 10,000 yuan households. Eight In the 1900s, a household with 10,000 yuan was considered a wealthy person. The average salary at this time was only a few dozen yuan. If all this money was given to one person, he would definitely be the richest man in the country.
"Old Hu, madman, how should we spend so much money?" The fat man was already at a loss.
"Didn't we agree? Most of the money will be used to establish a charity fund after returning to China to help those soldiers who have sacrificed or are disabled. This is what we should do. Maybe we can contact Lao Hu's father. People in the military region, this can be regarded as a military-civilian cooperation project, and everyone must be happy to see such a project come to fruition," Lin Feng said.
"Oh, yes, yes, I was almost blinded by money. We are going to establish a charity fund." The fat man said quickly.
"The share that belongs to me should also be given to the charity fund." Shirley Yang said.
"This is not necessary. You are an American. To be honest, this has nothing to do with you. This is the responsibility of us people. You can spend your money however you want. You don't need to care about what we think." Lin Feng advised.
"Okay then, how about I use the money to buy a house in a place we both like better, and then make it our new home?" Shirley Yang looked at Lin Feng expectantly. At this time, her strong female temperament was no longer there. , but with the look of a girl in love.
"Okay, I can provide you with a few places that I like, and then you can tell me a few places that you like. The earth is so big, there are always places that both of us like." Lin Feng looked at Shirley dotingly and said.
"Okay!" Shirley was very satisfied with Lin Feng's answer and said with a smile.
The fat man couldn't stand it anymore and turned to Hu Bayi on the side,
"Old Hu, why do I feel like we two are so redundant now? I'm so angry when I see this man's love for his concubine. How about we go to New York to find some foreign girls? Hehe, you know."
"I don't understand. I have to find you. I have been keeping my integrity for more than thirty years. I don't want to lose my life here. I am also planning to go back and find a good wife." Hu Bayi was completely unmoved.
"Oh, forget it then." The fat man was a little depressed.
Lin Feng heard the fat man's words and said,
"Fat man, we are already very restrained. What else do you want, do you want us to pretend to be strangers in front of you? If you are greedy, hurry up and find a companion. If you have a companion, you will think that we are like this. It’s normal.”
