C675

If you look at the Luban pillow carefully, you will find that the wood texture reveals a lavender luster, and the annual ring pattern is also like ox hair, which is as subtle as a mirror. Moreover, on the surface of the Luban pillow, there are no scratches and wounds, which is obviously unique to red sandalwood.

Therefore, what attracted Lin Xi's attention was not the Luban pillow itself, but he was surprised to find that the wood used to make Luban pillow was made directly from the whole piece of red sandalwood. However, we all know that the color of big leaf red sandalwood is often purple brown, and the texture on the section is relatively wide, which obviously does not match the wood of Luban pillow.

That is to say, the wood used to make Luban pillow is red sandalwood, no doubt, but it is not the relatively common big leaf red sandalwood, but the extremely precious small leaf red sandalwood. What's the value of Luban pillow made of such a large block of small leaf red sandalwood?

As mentioned earlier, the growth cycle of Pterocarpus microphylla is extremely slow. It takes more than 800 years to become wood. Its hardness is the first in wood. It is known as "the king's wood" and has the saying of "one inch of Pterocarpus microphylla is one inch of gold".

If we have to make a more specific comparison, in terms of the current market price, the value of red sandalwood with small leaves is four or five times higher than that of red sandalwood with large leaves, and the most important thing is that the number of red sandalwood with small leaves is extremely rare, and large pieces such as lubanzhen are rare.

Therefore, when Lin Xi saw the Luban pillow, he was immediately happy. He didn't expect to come out for his birthday today and meet this kind of good thing. If he picked up the Luban pillow, it was estimated that there would still be more than 100000 yuan, and he could earn a small income.

But at this time, Lin Xi suddenly heard the old man's angry voice and pulled him back from his calculation: "you foreigners are unreasonable. It's clear that you opened my stall. Now the villains will complain and bite me first. And there are so many people who can testify that when did I say these things are antiques, if they are antiques I can't sell it to you "

from the old man's tone, I can tell that he should be an honest businessman. Taking advantage of the heavy passenger flow today, he came to the old street to do some small business and earn some hard money. Unexpectedly, he met two unreasonable foreigners, as well as the glossy flour interpreter, who overturned all the gadgets on his stall.

As for why they quarreled and why they opened the stall, because Lin Xi and Yu Qingming had just come over, and they didn't see what had happened before, so they didn't understand much in a short time.

However, no matter what is said or what is the matter, foreigners and translators should not make a fuss. After all, it's a society ruled by law. What kind of politics can't be reasonable?

Moreover, Lin Xi can see that the old man should lose a lot today, because more than ten clay figurines have been smashed, and many woven flowers and birds have been crushed. Obviously, they can no longer be sold for money, and even some of the gadgets have rolled into the crowd, and they have been led by those immoral people. The loss can only be borne by the old man alone .

With the lapse of time, Lin Xi also found that it was not the two foreigners who overturned the old man's stall, but the glossy and powdered noodles interpreter. He even came to watch the fun for four or five minutes. The two foreigners didn't say a word, but the interpreter and the old man were quarreling.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Lin Xi suddenly had a sense of absurdity. He remembered that in the turbulent and dark years of the 1930s and 1940s, the people of our country suffered from the Japanese aggressors. However, it was the traitors who betrayed their conscience that caused the greatest harm to the people at that time.

The harm and pain that the traitors inflicted on the people and the country were far more hateful, hateful and hateful than the invaders themselves. Many Chinese people were not killed by the invaders, but were persecuted and killed by the traitors.

But what Lin Xi didn't expect is that today, decades later, the scene of that year is staged in Mingzhou again. Looking at the arrogance of that translator who spared no effort, he almost pushed his nostrils to heaven. It is obvious that he thinks he is superior and alive.

Obviously, the two white skinned foreigners didn't know Chinese, so they entrusted the translator with full power to negotiate with the old man: "Oh, it's a blessing that you've been cultivating for several generations that foreign friends can see you. Don't you know what's good or bad. You're so poor that you can make a foreign friend's life, at least for half a month?"

After a pause, the translator continued to disdain him and said, "but you are good. What your friends want you to buy is antiques, but you fool them with worthless bamboo root carvings. Do you know that your behavior has seriously affected Sino foreign relations, so I should send you to the police station."

When he heard the translator's words, the old man immediately shrank back and even hesitated. The reason why he argued with the translator was that the translator opened his stall and made him feel angry.

But even so, the old man doesn't want to enter the police station because in the eyes of most people in this era, the police station is undoubtedly a den of dragons and tigers, and it's hard to get out when they enter. Only by taking advantage of this kind of psychology can translators dare to show off their power in front of the old man.

Looking at the translation in front of him indignantly, the old man looks angry but does not dare to speak. The tourists who are around to watch the excitement, perhaps because they came earlier, know more about the process of things, and after seeing the arrogant face of the translator, they fight for the old man one after another."Oh, there's a dog traitor this year. I've only seen it on TV before, but I didn't expect jin'er to meet a real person. But why doesn't this dog traitor have such fat head and big ears on TV?"

"it's true that the two foreigners think we are still being slaughtered as before, and the dog interpreter doesn't know his father and Mazu Whether Zongzhi knows his traitor's face or not, I think if he knows it, he will be able to survive from the grave gas · "

" this young man really has too many points. Even if the stall owner does not do it right, he will soon be able to reason well. It's necessary to make such unreasonable remarks. No matter what, now even if you are reasonable, you will become unreasonable · "

in the face of onlookers The cynicism of the crowd may be supported by foreigners. The translator thinks that he has a strong waist, not only does he have no sense of shame and fear, but also holds up his head with pride, as if he takes the cynicism of the crowd as a compliment to him.

Maybe someone helped me. The old man opposite the translator also felt confident. Instead of hesitating, he said angrily, "you foreigners are too bullying. I can't do this business any more. You give me my bamboo root carving and I'll give you your money."

As he spoke, the old man took out 500 yuan from his coat pocket, and the 500 yuan was not RMB, but the common pound in European countries. Obviously, the old man recognized today and thought he had gone out without looking at the Yellow calendar.

But what the old man didn't expect was that the interpreter didn't look at the five hundred pounds in his hand. Instead, he sneered, "now I know I'm sorry, so what have you been doing? I'm accusing you of being late! "

At this point, the translator hesitated deliberately, as if he really thought about it. Then he changed his words and said, "of course, if you really want to go back, it's not impossible, but it's also a common rule in foreign countries to compensate two foreign friends for their spiritual losses. If you take 5000 pounds, I'll agree to it, or I'll call you I'll call the police. "

Seeing the translator's arrogant look, the old man's eyes almost burst out with anger. He didn't know which immortal he had offended. He even got into such unreasonable business. He even had to pay 5000 pounds for not doing the business.

You should know that in this era, when the exchange rate between pound sterling and RMB is converted, 5000 pound sterling is equal to 50000 yuan, which is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for most families. The old man is working hard to set up a stall in the old street, going out early and coming back late every day, and the top day of each month is only 3000 or 4000 yuan. Isn't it enough to ask him to compensate for the whole year's income?
