V2.Chapter 5 (1/2)

Bagua Feng Shui mirror is a combination of Bagua and mirror. It is generally used to dissolve the strong evil spirits such as the five yellow and great evil spirits. It will not be used without evil spirits.

And this antique street is very normal. Why use Bagua Feng Shui mirror?

Wang Daolin's mirror was hung under the eaves. The eaves were low and the mirror was not big. It was half hidden at the bottom. Xia Shao looked at it for a while and found it fishy. She looked in the direction of the mirror and found that the place directly opposite the mirror was just the antique shop to be transferred diagonally, which made a cold hum.

”This man! He doesn't do business honestly, but he does it secretly. No wonder none of the stores he likes can do it. That's what happened.” Xia Shao took back his eyes. ”Senior brother, let's go and have a look at that store.”

Xu Tianyin nodded, and his eyes fell on their hands. The girl in front of him led him forward. She was obviously distracted and had long forgotten it. He didn't remind her, and let her lead him forward. He felt that hand in his palm. It was soft and lovely. Even the temperature was neither cold nor hot. It was like the feeling she gave, quiet and comfortable.

On the bustling Antique Street, a pair of very handsome young people held hands and attracted the attention of many people. However, it can be seen that the man's pace is slightly behind the girl. His eyes are fixed on her back, his head is slightly lowered, and a very shallow smile is put on the corners of his lips.

Xia Shao took Xu Tianyin into the antique store to be transferred and saw the boss Ma Xianrong quietly wiping his antique in the store. Although the business can't go on, everything is like his children. He cherishes it very much and doesn't want to be slighted.

This scene fell into Xia Shao's eyes. His eyes lit up. Then he asked, ”excuse me, I'm interested in buying this store. Can I talk about it?”

Ma Xianrong sighed and waved his hand without raising his head. ”No, President Wang likes my shop. He wants it and no one dares to sell it. If you buy it, you can't do business. Why should I pit you? You still... Eh?”

Half way through what he said, he realized it later.

This voice sounds very young! Besides, she's still a girl!

Antiques are mostly done by old men, because they should pay attention to their eyesight. They can't do it without years of experience. Therefore, young people and girls are rare in this industry.

Ma Xianrong was stunned. Then he turned and looked. He saw a 16-year-old girl Yingying standing at the door and a man behind him. He didn't look at people, but only the girl in front of him.

Ma Xianrong didn't come back for a long time. Xia Shao had already walked towards him.

She still said, ”boss Ma, I'm interested in buying this store. Can you talk about it?”

Just now, the door was against the light. Until Xia Shao came in, Ma Xianrong looked her up and down. The girl was dressed in casual clothes of white clothes and trousers, with a cap on her head, half covering her face.

Xia Shao smiled and took off his hat when he saw Ma Xianrong looking at her. She came in disguise on purpose. After all, it was exposed at the auction. Others may not recognize her, but her peers must recognize her! When I came to the antique street this time, I was afraid that the store would be recognized before it was found, causing unnecessary trouble.

She took off her hat, showed her quiet and soft face, and nodded slightly to Ma Xianrong.

Ma Xianrong stared more and more. He was surprised and uncertain and said, ”you, you... I look at you... A little familiar...”

Xia Shao smiled, generously stretched out his hand and said, ”Hello, boss ma. My last name is Xia Shao.”

”Xia... Oh! President Xia! It's you!” Ma Xianrong was obviously very excited about Xia Shao's coming to his store. A man in his forties and fifties was shaking with excitement, holding the hand of a 16-year-old girl. ”Oh! Nice to meet you! President Xia, your name is like thunder! A young man started from scratch. I can't compete with an old man like me!”

Xia Shao smiled, looked outside the store, handed Ma Xianrong a ”low voice” look, and then said, ”can we sit down and talk inside?”

In all antique shops, there are teahouses inside and screens outside, not to be artful, but to separate a private area for talking to customers. Except for the auction, the prices of the objects sold in the antique industry are not made public.

Ma Xianrong excitedly invited Xia Shao and Xu Tianyin to sit down in the teahouse and made tea himself, ”Mr. Xia, you don't know. Since the East market auction, your name has been heard like thunder in this street! What I hear most every day is your name. My peers can't tell. At your age, where does your eye for antique identification come from? If the neighbors know that you've been to my old horse's shop, I'm afraid I'll be envied these days, ha ha!”

Ma Xianrong smiled and sighed, ”Alas! It's a pity that I can't continue in this line...”

He shook his head and saw that Xia Shao's excitement was soon diluted by the things in the store. Xia Shao drank tea quietly and didn't bother him. He seemed to be an excellent listener, letting Ma Xianrong spit out his depression.

”Alas! Mr. Xia, I think it's not easy for you to make such achievements when you are young. I don't pit you, just tell you the truth. When I transferred this store from the last boss, President Wang took a fancy to it. I'm a middle-aged person in this field and I haven't been in it for a long time. I can be regarded as a scholarly family in my ancestors. My grandfather and father's generation are very fond of antiques. I've never been in this business since Since I was a child, I have followed the old man to get in touch with these things. I think my eyesight is good. But I haven't been in this business. I made some money in business a few years ago, and the children have become a family. So I advised me not to be too tired. I open an antique shop, which is free and can earn money. I can talk and make a group of friends when I meet those old Tibetan friends. Once I heard it, it's really a good job. If I could make friends in my later years It's fun. I just closed my previous business and opened such a shop in this street. ”

Ma Xianrong sighed and looked very regretful. ”President Xia, do you want to receive it because of the good location of my store?”

Xia Shao smiled and nodded.

Ma Xianrong waved his hand, ”Please don't! Like you, I met this store when I came to look for a shop front. I thought I was lucky to meet a good lot. I came in to talk about the price with the original owner of this store. I also had a plan to give less money. I didn't know that the owner would answer immediately as soon as I spoke! I still wondered why he didn't ask me for more price, Now I understand... The price given by President Wang. If someone gave me the price I gave, I would transfer it immediately without saying a word! ”

”Why doesn't boss Ma want to give it to me?” Xia Shao put down his tea cup and smiled.

”I... I still can't do this kind of cheating.” Ma Xianrong shook his head and smiled bitterly. ”If others come, I may still struggle. If Xia always comes, forget it. My youngest daughter is not a few years older than you. Although her achievements can't be compared with you, the mood of being a parent in the world is the same.”

Ma Xianrong had a bitter smile on his face, but his words were sincere.

Xia Shao smiled deeply on his lips, nodded secretly, but said with a smile: ”boss Ma, thank you for your kindness. But I'm going to take care of the store. You took over the price of the store before, and I'll add 20% to you. Let me ask you again, can you turn it around?”

Ma Xianrong was stunned. He didn't expect Xia Shao to insist on this store after listening to him so much.

Plus 20%? Not only will he not lose money, but he will also make up for all the expenses of this year. This is a very generous price! The price offered with Wang Daolin is one heaven and one earth!

Ma Xianrong was a little confused, and his face was struggling and shaking, but he finally asked in confusion: ”President Xia, why do you have to buy this shop? As the old saying goes, peers are enemies. President Wang and President Chen of China have been old enemies in this industry for many years. You can avoid here with so many antique markets all over the country. With your Chinese assets, you can gain a firm foothold everywhere. Qingshi is the foundation of President Wang. Why do you have to meet him here Hard? ”

”This is about Huaxia group. Boss Ma doesn't need to know. I just ask you, do you turn the price you just gave you or not?” Xia Shao was unmoved, picked up the tea cup and drank tea with his eyes down.

”This, this...” Ma Xianrong didn't expect that Xia Shao was so stubborn and advised her so hard. She didn't listen to it, which made him impatient. He immediately got a little angry and said, ”President Xia, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. I really admire it! However, people are selfish. If you ask me that, I will turn around! But I have reminded president Xia that I have a clear conscience! Don't blame me for Ma Xianrong's cheating on you when you hit a nail in Qingshi!”

”OK.” Xia Shao smiled and nodded slightly, obviously satisfied with Ma Xianrong's answer.

In fact, she only asked these questions to test Ma Xianrong. It is necessary for Fu Ruixiang to find a shopkeeper if he wants to open in Qingshi. Can't you ask Chen manguan, the big shopkeeper, to run back and forth in Dongshi Qingshi all day? Moreover, it will be the same all over the country in the future. He always has to find someone to be responsible.

Chen manguan knows a lot of people in this area. It's reasonable to ask him to choose a candidate, but Xia Shao met Ma Xianrong by chance today and felt that others are good, so he made a test.

”Boss Ma, don't worry, sit down.” Xia Shao looked at Ma Xianrong with a calm smile, with a deep smile on his lips, ”Judging by President Wang's personality, he won't sit back and watch Fu Ruixiang grow bigger. Sooner or later, we'll have to fight each other. It doesn't matter. Others are afraid of his 10 billion wealth. I'm not afraid. If he competes with me in the mall, it's all right. If he comes with me, I'll let him know who is the ancestor with Feng Shui.”

Ma Xianrong was stunned and confused for a long time before he asked, ”what? What Feng Shui?”

Xia Shao smiled and looked out. ”Didn't boss Ma find the gossip Feng Shui mirror opposite? The mirror has been hanging for at least a year. Although it is hidden, boss Ma won't have not found it for so long?”

Ma Xianrong was stunned. Looking along Xia Shao's eyes, there was a screen blocking his sight. He couldn't see the Feng Shui mirror, but he nodded stunned, ”I saw it. There was such a mirror. But... How did Xia always know that he had been hanging for a year?”

”Boss Ma is a good man. No business in the world has ever been finished. As a man of boss Ma, even if he is pressed by President Wang's antique shop opposite, he should have his own customers. He is so forced that he can't even open the shop. Naturally, there are some other problems besides the pressure of President Wang. But this problem can't be completed in a day. It needs to be solved in a short time It takes at least a year to accumulate over time. Moreover, boss Ma is not in good health this year. He is in a trance, often has palpitations and dreams at night. Is that right? ”

Ma Xianrong nodded in surprise, ”yes! Yes! All right! I thought it was the bad business in the store. I had something in mind. Is it difficult... Isn't it?”

”There are their own reasons, but there are also man-made reasons.” Xia Shao drooped his eyes and drank tea. ”Boss Ma won't feel uncomfortable when he found the eight trigrams Feng Shui mirror facing his own shop? Haven't you gone to him?”

”Well... Of course I did! But President Wang said it was for their store to recruit fortune and money, which has nothing to do with my store. I don't know much about these things, and I think I can't see or touch them. I can't mess with them and make trouble for others. Besides, he is the president of the antique guild in the province. It would be nice if he didn't trouble me. If I went to him again, he would be more happy Excuse me. ”Ma Xianrong looked at Xia Shao eagerly.” President Xia, I heard that you are a feng shui master. Is this true? You mean, my business is not good and my health is not very good. It has something to do with the mirror? ”

”It's related. President Wang deceives you and doesn't understand anything. What's the ordinary Feng Shui mirror for fortune? The ordinary eight trigrams mirror is composed of heavenly stems and earthly branches, congenital eight trigrams, Heluo nine stars and 24 solar terms. On the back is the symbol of” eight trigrams founder, four noble people and five gods of wealth ”. What about his shop?”

Xia Shao snorted, ”boss Ma, if you can go nearby, there is a trident on the gossip mirror. A God will ride a white tiger and hold an artifact! And the mirror has been opened. The Trident is sharp and the white tiger takes evil spirits. It will be bad for where you go! This is a trick to get money and fortune? Oh, joke.”

Ma Xianrong was stunned.

Xia Shao took a sip of tea, shook his head and sighed, ”President Wang is really anxious. Even if he doesn't use this gossip Feng Shui mirror, if he wants to close your store, you can't hold on after all. He made such a thing to hurt other people's bodies in order to be faster.”

”Wow! That's what happened! I, I'll go and talk to him!” Ma Xianrong stood up and trembled with anger.

”Boss Ma, take it easy.” Xia Shao still looked leisurely, but asked Ma Xianrong to stop.

”Boss Ma, are you interested in joining Fu Ruixiang? You can rest assured that the salary is 100 times better than that you have been suppressed this year.” Xia Shao put down the tea and sat down with a serious look.

This serious look didn't seem to make fun of Ma Xianrong. He was stunned for a long time before he turned and sat down.

”President Xia, can I ask why you told me this? Since you want to take my shop, I agree to give it to you. Just take it. Why tell me this? You're not afraid that I know what the problem is. Just ask him to take down the mirror. I won't turn the shop?” Ma Xianrong frowned, Look carefully at the 16-year-old girl in front of you.

Since she came in, she has been calm and relaxed. He doesn't understand where she comes from at her age?

Xia Shao smiled at him and joked, ”No? Boss Ma really thinks it's OK to take down the Feng Shui mirror? Feng Shui is just help, talent is the source. The other party wants to suppress you. Without this Feng Shui mirror, you can only last longer. Moreover, with boss Ma's personality, since you know that the other party hurt you, you never give it back to the other party to take advantage of it. You won't give it to him in this shop In the end, it's mine. ”

Ma Xianrong was stunned. For a long time, he didn't know whether it was admiration or helplessness. He shook his head and nodded. He smiled bitterly and said, ”yes, yes, that's the case.”

”Moreover, when I invite boss Ma, I value your character. I asked you just now and gave you a 20% price tag. Do you transfer or not? If you would rather suffer a loss than transfer the store to me, then I won't keep you. Fortunately, in the end, you didn't ignore your own interests, so I decided to invite you.”

This confused Ma Xianrong. He didn't understand, ”President Xia, did you say the opposite?”

”No.” Xia Shao smiled and shook his head, frankly speaking, ”What I need is a businessman, not just outstanding moral character. If boss Ma thinks of me, who is only one-sided, and ignores his own interests in the face of such good conditions, then you are a good man, but you are not suitable for doing business. But you don't ignore your own interests in the end. It can be seen that you are a businessman and a virtuous businessman. So We Huaxia Group sincerely welcome you. ”

”...” Ma Xianrong looked at Xia Shao and didn't say a word for a long time, but his heart was shocked!

He understood. He finally understood why the young girl had such achievements at a young age. It was no accident!

I don't know how long it took, Ma Xianrong smiled with emotion, ”I understand. I dare to feel that I passed president Xia's interview just now?”

Xia Shao raised her eyebrows and smiled, ”you can say so. Congratulations to boss ma. The interview was successful.”

”Ha ha!” Ma Xianrong laughed happily and swept away the haze for days. ”It seems that I can't do it if I don't agree. President Xia said I'm a businessman. How can a businessman not think of his own interests? Why should I refuse such a good opportunity?”

Ma Xianrong stood up and stretched out his hand, ”after that, please take more care of President Xia.”

Xia Shao also stood up. They shook hands and reached an agreement!

……

Although the agreement was reached, Xia Shao didn't let Ma Xianrong publicize it. Ma Xianrong didn't know what her intention was, but she did.

The next day, Wang Daolin asked again. Ma Xianrong didn't give him a good face this time. He just said - sorry, our store won't turn!

This attitude kept Wang Daolin awake for a long time, and his peers on the street also talked secretly.

What's the matter? What medicine did Ma Xianrong take wrong and dare to show Wang Daolin's face? Think the price he offered is too low and plan to hold on?

Wang Daolin was still smiling, but his smile was cold. ”Well, if brother Ma can hold on, I'm welcome. We have more peers in this line. If we can't hold on, I'm afraid you'll come to beg me one day!”

Ma Xianrong sneered, ”I've opened this store for more than a year. It seems that President Wang hasn't regarded me as a peer. In that case, I'd like to ask President Wang to give a formal congratulations another day.”

”Then I'll wait.” Wang Daolin sneered and left.

From this day on, every shop in the antique street stared at Ma Xianrong's shop and found that his business was still cold. I haven't done a single business for a week. Ma Xianrong changed his worried and anxious appearance and looked calm. He sat in the store reading and wiping antiques every day.

They didn't know what medicine he sold in the gourd. They only saw that at the weekend, a pair of handsome young people walked into the store and sat for about an hour before they came out. This pair of young people have a very outstanding temperament. They look like the childe of a rich family with his girlfriend to spend money in an antique shop, so they don't care.

Who wants to open the Qingshi branch of furuixiang antique shop three days later!
