MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 21 struggle and jealousy 3

The spring breeze is proud of horseshoes.

Li Xiaoshuai drove all the way and arrived at Gardner's second-hand store not long after. He wanted to prove himself to his mother through the mouth of the old mage Gardner.

Prove that Li Xiaoshuai did a good job in this treasure hunter job!

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "Grandpa, today I picked up two good things to show you."

"What's a good thing?" Grandma Annie, who was taking pills, greeted Li Xiaoshuai affectionately and sat beside her.

Li's mother, wearing a pair of reading glasses, ping-pong-pong on the counter to settle accounts, saw her son coming, glanced at her, and continued to work.

Li Xiaoshuai took the holster hanging from his waist and handed it to Gardner, "Grandpa; look."

Gardner also put on the reading glasses hanging on his chest, took the pistol and began to look.

Gardner's revolver was pulled out of the holster, and as he looked at it, he commented again: "Oh; it's a Colt Collector's Edition from the 1950s, with an ivory veneer handle, really a good thing, and it's worth it. Thousands of dollars."

Grandma Annie also said to Xia Huifang, you should stand up and take a look, this is the result of your son's own efforts and deserves praise.

"That's just the little guy's bad luck, maybe tomorrow he will lose everything." Li Xiaoshuai didn't expect that his mother still didn't take good care of himself.

If one doesn't work, let's do another.

Li Xiaoshuai took out the diamond ring again.

This time even Grandma Anne exclaimed, "Good stuff, great."

"Diamond ring?" Xia Huifang couldn't sit still this time, "Can you find this kind of thing?"

Li Xiaoshuai told his mother that he found it in the crack of a broken sofa. It is estimated that the diamond ring was never found after it fell into it.

Gardner passed a formal inspection and said with certainty, "This is an excellent diamond ring, and it's worth a lot!"

He then said that these two good things are not suitable for sale in his store, and they have to be sold in professional stores, where the bids are much higher than his second-hand stores.

Li Xiaoshuai was convinced of Gardner's words, and immediately thought of where to shoot.

Handing Li Xiaoshuai a cup of coffee, Grandma Anne said, "Li, I was wrong at first, but now Grandma apologizes to you. Your luck is very good, and it is very suitable for a professional treasure hunter. If you like it, keep doing it."

This is the exact opposite of Xia Huifang's opinion. Mama Li can't sit still anymore, saying that picking up treasures is picking up trash.

"Ha" Gardner understood, "I've been talking for a long time or it's because you don't feel good enough, Xia; are you being too selfish?"

Grandma Anne also said that the United States is a very realistic country. As long as you have money, you are an uncle, and Americans don’t care where they earn it.

If you want your son to go to work in a factory, pay such a monthly salary and make a fortune that day. Yes, hard work can make a fortune, but it takes generations of accumulation to get through this road.

And if you want to get rich quickly, you can only take the road of Li Xiaoshuai picking up treasures. Today he can pick up good goods worth more than ten thousand dollars, and maybe tomorrow he can pick up treasures worth one hundred thousand, or even a million!

"Grandma, what you said is so good, it went to my heart" Li Xiaoshuai immediately praised the considerate grandmother.

Gardner also added that since Xia Huifang felt that Li Xiaoshuai was a bit embarrassed to be a treasure collector, then he said that Li Xiaoshuai went out to collect treasures for Gardner's second-hand store and counted as an employee of the second-hand store.

Seeing that Xia Huifang was speechless, Gardner patted Li Xiaoshuai at the right time and told him to rush to hand over the diamond ring and the revolver.

Li Xiaoshuai first went to the Martins jewelry store at the intersection of Grand Street and Ocherrod Street.

Li Xiaoshuai is very familiar with this store, because his mother-in-law is the lobby manager of this store. He has also practiced in this store himself, and is very familiar with the store staff.

Martins jewelry store runs east to west, opposite the curtain store and lingerie store, next to the jewelry store is a gallery, and further down the side street, there are Mexican restaurants and Vietnamese restaurants, and there are two galleries further inside. , the flow of people is still very strong.

After getting out of the car, Li Xiaoshuai saw the two guards in front of the jewelry store watching him. Seeing that they were acquaintances, Li Xiaoshuai immediately relaxed. "Hey; Li, why are you here when you have time?"

"Let's talk about it later." Li Xiaoshuai pushed open the door and entered.

There are counters on three sides in the store, and a reception desk is placed in the middle space near the gate. Li Xiaoshuai's mother-in-law, Lisa, was standing behind the stage. When she saw Li Xiaoshuai, she asked, "Why are you here? Is there anything wrong?"

Li Xiaoshuai gave her the diamond ring he picked up, and said that he was going to sell it here to see how much he could get.

"A great diamond ring, was it really picked up by treasure?" Lisa looked at the dazzling diamond ring and couldn't believe it.

At this time, several salespeople in the store also greeted Li Xiaoshuai. They are all old acquaintances, and they are very envious of Li Xiaoshuai's good luck.

Because everyone is an insider, you can know the value of this diamond ring with a glance.

Although she and Li Xiaoshuai were acquaintances, Lisa took out the magnifying glass in her pocket to examine it carefully. After reading it, she called Yi Fusi, the store manager, and Johnny, the head of the acquisition department, and asked them to examine it together.

Li Xiaoshuai was absolutely sure that the diamond ring he picked up was real, but he was not at all disgusted by the complicated procedure that his mother-in-law made, because it was a necessary procedure for a jewelry store.

After examining them separately, they all said that the diamonds on the diamond ring are at least 1.1 carats, and it is also a platinum ring, which is a very good and high-grade jewelry.

As an insider, Li Xiaoshuai also knows that the value of a single diamond less than one carat is very general, but if it exceeds one carat, the value will increase greatly.

Johnny, who was in charge of the acquisition, didn't say the price at first~www.novelbuddy.com~, but first asked how the diamond ring came from.

"I'm a professional treasure hunter now." After saying that, he also showed his stainless steel "dog tag" to several people.

The treasure hunter picked up diamond jewelry and the like, and the store also encountered it, and the two of them did not doubt the origin of the diamond ring.

Johnny: "Li; you also interned in our shop, and the price is $8,000?"

This price is 500 yuan higher than Li Xiaoshuai's estimate, of course, he fully agreed.

The only thing that made Li Xiaoshuai feel a little dissatisfied was that the jewelry store was unwilling to give cash, and insisted on going to the bank to transfer money.

But it’s okay, Li Xiaoshuai’s new bank card of the Bank of Luxembourg can be regarded as the fate of extreme poverty.

After the business was done, Johnny still congratulated Li Xiaoshuai for his good luck, and said that if there is such good luck in the future, we must think of our own people first, and the price is good to say.

After finishing the incident, Li Xiaoshuai went to the gun shop next to Ron's garage and sold the collector's revolver for $5,000.

In the evening, Li Xiaoshuai counted the previous paragraphs since he started picking up treasures, and it was already $35,000. I keep $25,000 for working capital, and give the remaining $10,000 to my mother.

His purpose is to make the mother happy first, and by the way, he can also dispel the dissatisfaction in the mother's heart and make her ears clearer.

As we all know, if the old mother is nagging, few people can stand it. Among them, the old mother of the Rabbit Country is the most lethal, with snot and tears, it can drive people crazy.

"Take it; I don't want it, must show me $1 million in cash or jewelry before New Years!"

"Yesir."
