"Damn it! This is too cheap."
Yi Tianyang mumbled and reached out to take the watch back.
"When I bought it in London, it cost me 100 pounds!”
The old man gasped.
100 pounds was equivalent to nearly 1000 dollars.
With this price, he could buy a large courtyard house in Tianjin.
Obviously, the old man couldn't make the decision.
However, looking at Yi Tianyang's clothes and mannerisms, he should have returned from overseas. Moreover, this thing was definitely valuable overseas. What this young man said should not be too exaggerated.
"Old friend, how much can you give at most?”
Yi Tianyang asked, unwilling to give up.
This watch was only worth a thousand yuan. Anyway, he could go back later.
Sell, he definitely had to sell!
However, if he could sell more, he would definitely sell more.
"Sir, I heard that you came back from abroad. Have you been to Paris?”
A voice with a strange accent came from the side.
Yi Tianyang turned around. It was the foreigner from earlier.
"Of course, Paris is a romantic city full of exotic customs. I stayed there for a week once, and it's an amazing building. Of course, the Notre-Dame de Paris on the banks of the Seine was an even more unforgettable place!”
"Thank you for your praise. I'm Oliver from Paris. It's a pleasure to meet a traveling poet!”
"Hello, my name is Yi Tianyang!"
The blond foreigner heard Yi Tianyang's praise of Paris and his face showed a proud expression.
He immediately had a good impression of the young man in front of him.
F * ck!
This guy mentioned Paris the moment he opened his mouth. I knew you were French!
Yi Tianyang reached out and shook Oliver's hand.
"Did you just return to the country? I wonder if you can show me this watch you brought back?”
Oliver pointed at the watch in Yi Tianyang's hand.
Yi Tianyang handed it over.
"Oh, my God, the workmanship is really exquisite, and the design is also very beautiful. The decorations on it have increased the value of this watch by a lot.”
Oliver checked the watch in his hand carefully and exclaimed.
Looking up at Yi Tianyang, a hint of hesitation flashed across Oliver's eyes.
" Mr. Yi," Oliver said," you've just returned from abroad. It seems that it's not convenient for you to carry it with you. I wonder if you're willing to part with this watch and sell it to me?" Tomorrow is my daughter's 18th birthday. I want to give her a special gift!”
No wonder this foreigner was looking at things here.
"You heard it just now. I just want to buy something, but the price…"
Oliver said, Five hundred dollars! You have to know that this is already several times higher than the price of their pawnshop!”
Yi Tianyang: " 500 yuan? I'm basically losing money!" It seemed that he had to look for those princes and concubines to see if they were interested in this foreign thing!”
Yi Tianyang pretended to look dejected, which made Oliver even more hesitant.
The old shop assistant's expression also changed.
It was no longer the Qing Dynasty's world, but those fallen princes and grandchildren held a lot of wealth in their hands.
Some people might want to restore the throne and continue the rule of the Qing Dynasty.
However, the vast majority of people had already accepted reality and were addicted to sensual pleasures, idling around all day. If those people saw such an exquisite thing, it was not impossible for them to buy it at a high price.
Oliver said,"1000 dollars. No more!"”
"Deal!" But I only accept silver."
Both parties were satisfied with the price.
Yi Tianyang didn't bargain anymore. If the price was higher than what he wanted, then he would sell it.
However, what Yi Tianyang said earlier was not entirely a lie.
If he could find the old men of the dynasty, he might really be able to sell them for a good price.
However, with his current status, where could he find those princes and grandchildren? Moreover, it was still unknown if those people would be willing to buy it.
Seeing that the cooldown time was about to end, wouldn't it be nice to take back these 1000 dollars?
Oliver took out two silver notes and asked the pawnshop to change them into 1000 dollars. He put them in a small rattan box and handed it to Yi Tianyang.
He was carrying a small box with 1000 yuan in it.
Hiss, this thing was quite heavy.
However, thinking about it, this 1000 yuan was worth dozens of pounds. No wonder.
The old man saw that the thing he had asked for 30 dollars just now had been bought for 1000 dollars in the blink of an eye.
There was no need to mention the annoyance in his heart!
"Mr. Yi, you just came back from abroad. I wonder if you brought back anything interesting? For example, a watch like this? If you have anything else, you can look for me!”
Oliver asked Yi Tianyang as if he smelled money.
Besides preparing gifts for his daughter, Oliver also liked to collect strange things. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to the pawnshop outside the concession.
Hearing Oliver's words, Yi Tianyang's heart skipped a beat.
"I do have a few fun things." I still have two watches like this. However, when I boarded the ship previously, there was a problem with my luggage. I had to bring it back on the next ship to get my luggage.”
" Alright, Mr. Yi," Oliver said." I'll be waiting for you." This is the French concession pass. You can come to the French concession to find me. If you have anything fun, feel free to come to me. The price will definitely satisfy you!”
Yi Tianyang: " That's fine too. But let me say this first. I just got off the ship and am penniless. That's why I'm selling this at a low price. After I get my luggage…"
Oliver: " Don't worry, I understand. Isn't that the charm of capital? When the time comes, I'll introduce a few sellers to you, Mr. Yi. They'll definitely be interested in such things!”
Oliver handed Yi Tianyang a pass with the stamp of the French concession.
Yi Tianyang folded the pass and stuffed it into his pocket.
After saying goodbye to Oliver, he turned around and left the pawnshop.
………………
! A ticket! He begged for everything!
