e and engages in the flesh trade.It takes half an hour for the medicine's effects to wear off. I was curious about his Eight Eccentrics, so I took the opportunity to learn more.Sān gē said that the d..."Come come, take a seat," he greeted them with a smile.
The old man with white hair had a rosy complexion and looked prosperous, clearly a wealthy person. He waved his hand and said that there was no need for a meal, first to look at those three pieces of dragon meat.
He nodded in agreement, patted his hand, and Sun Laoda turned around and left the room.
In a few minutes, the boss brought in a bundle of yellow cloth. Inside the yellow cloth were three bronze artifacts, one of which was the ancient Yue Kingdom bronze vessel with an inlaid silver design of eight hands.
The elderly man took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on. He even carefully put on a pair of white gloves.
After carefully examining the bronze object, the old man took a deep breath and said, “The item is genuine. Do you know what this is”
"This should be a sacrificial bronze vessel from the ancient Yue culture. The boss looks like an expert, so I'll be honest with you, this piece comes from the West Zhou Da Shen Pit."
"
" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The old man's eyes lit up and he asked, "May I ask who the owner of the tomb is"
He admitted openly, "A warlord from the southern fiefdom, Jie Hou Dai Zi."

The old man nodded in satisfaction, "It seems I was right. For decades, I've been looking for ancient Yue artifacts. The objects passed down from the ancient Yue people are no less impressive than those from Sanxingdui. This bronze artifact is called a wuzu jia (jia), specially crafted by black wizards of ancient Yue for rituals. There's a small fragment in the Baoji Museum that has always gone unnoticed. I never expected to come across the actual thing."
"Could the other two please be brought over for this old man to have a look"
He nodded and said, "Of course." He also told the eldest to bring over the other two.
The old man with white hair watched intently, for over ten minutes, without saying a word.
After a cough, the old man finally calmed down.
The old man spoke, "Including these three items, pack up the rest. 500"
"Boss, look at this. The quantity is small. I haven't heard any other quotes yet. Making a hasty decision like this might not be appropriate."

The old man smiled and said, "Oh I understand. You think you sold at a loss because I agreed so quickly If it's about the money, everything is easy to say. 550 works for me."
"
" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"But then again..." the old man continued, "Most people don't recognize things from the ancient Yue kingdom. If the common people don't acknowledge it, it means it's obscure. The price I gave you, you can go around and check, it's already quite generous."
"If you're selling, we can sign the contract right now, and I can give you the money today."
">
How about it Would you buy it with one sentence Be decisive.
"
"
After a moment of contemplation, he said: "As for the payment for 550, I request a one-time lump sum."
"You tell me, cash or wire transfer will do."
”
Then let's open a checkbook.
"Made up his mind to sell all these things to the old man with white hair."
"Yes," the old man nodded and said, "The check stamp is locked in my office drawer. You can send someone with me back to the company."
“
There is also one more thing.
After you receive the payment, keep it confidential and don't mention that you met me at xx company to anyone else. Similarly, once this batch of goods is in my hands, there will be no trace leading back to you afterwards.

The old man stood up directly, and he said as he walked.
"Come here, get me some money." we see today.This thing is now hidden in the US museum. Friends who have the opportunity to visit can take a closer look at the lower right corner of the stone carving, and those with good eyesight w...
