Chapter 254 (1/2)

Tian kunsheng's car was parked in front of a three story building in downtown area.

Long Fei pushes the door to get off and looks at the small building. The three story building is antique. The walls are covered with green Parthenocissus. The wind blows and the leaves dance. It gives people a feeling of peace and tranquility, which is in sharp contrast to the bustle of traffic around.

There are many high-rise buildings around the small building, which makes the small building look a little different and a bit shabby. But Long Fei knew that it would be unusual for him to keep such a small building in such a place. Although the small building is small, it shows the strength of the owner, which is contained in the low-key arrogance!

”Come on, Mr. Maimaiti, remember what I said to you on the way! Don't talk and don't mess around here. ” Tian kunsheng and Long Fei say hello and step into the gate of the small building. After coming to Hong Kong Island, Long Fei did not restore his original identity, but still used the pseudonym Maimaiti.

The gate of the small building is not big. After entering, there is a board like a big screen, which is more than two meters high and three meters wide. On the top, there is a big word ”Asian pawnshop”, and on the bottom, there is a small word ”visitors are not deceived”!

Long Fei can't help wondering when he sees this wooden card.

As a descendant of an ancient family, Long Fei has some knowledge of pawnshops in China. Pawnshops were pawnshops in the past. They are said to have originated in the southern and Northern Dynasties of China and matured in the Song Dynasty. However, they were all cancelled after the founding of the state of Xinhua. After the reform and opening up, pawnshops have been restored in some places, but the operation method is different from that before. More business is pledge loan.

Chinese traditional pawnshops are more inherited by the Chinese in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. They still retain the traditional customs of ancient pawnshops, and even the layout of pawnshops is similar to that of previous pawnshops.

As soon as you enter the pawnshop, it's a big wooden card. It's also called a ”Mask”. Many people are forced to pawn in pawnshops. They don't want to let others know that they are embarrassed. If they have a mask to hide their shame, they are not afraid to be seen by acquaintances.

Around the big wooden card is a high counter with iron fence, which is similar to the pattern of banks in the past. However, the counter is much higher than the bank. An adult just stands to handle business.

What Long Fei wondered was that in Hong Kong Island, this kind of pawnshop is completely legal and serious business, and they all ask about the origin of things when they collect things. They don't want things of unknown origin. Tian kunsheng knows that his things are not coming from the right way. Why did he lead himself here?

Isn't this kind of underground trading supposed to go to a deserted factory in the suburbs, or a place with deep forests and dense grass and no one to watch? Or is it better to trade directly in the car? How can you trade in a place like this?

Although Long Fei is puzzled, he just looks at the development of things quietly.

Meitian said: ”meikun came to the counter to introduce something to you. Do you think you can spare some time to have a look? ”

Uncle he is a ganba old man in his fifties, with a lock of goatee, a pair of round framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a long gray shirt. Unfortunately, he didn't drag a long braid behind him. Otherwise, Long Fei would think that he came across from the Qing Dynasty.

After listening to Tian kunsheng's words, uncle he got up in the counter, glanced at Long Fei and Abu twice, and then said slowly, ”let him wait for a moment. When I finish this account. ”

”Alas! Alas! You go first, you go first Tian kunsheng nodded and said.

Tian kunsheng retreated and said to Longfei, ”Mr. Maimaiti, uncle he is busy. Let's wait for a moment.”

Long Fei looks at uncle he in the counter and suddenly understands. It seems that this pawnshop is a black-and-white shop. No matter what business you do, you can take it!

And they choose to trade underground here, which is very beneficial to them! This is their territory. They can press the price at will, or they can put pressure on the seller at will, giving the seller a sense of awe.

For example, now, uncle he Mingming has nothing to do in the counter, but he doesn't do business with himself immediately. He just wants to put some pressure on himself. He's showing himself an attitude: we're not very interested in your stuff. If you really want to sell it, just be honest for a while and do everything according to my rules.

To understand this, Long Fei showed a sneer on his face and said to Abu: ”brother, it seems that people don't care about our things! Forget it, let's find another home! ”

Long Fei said, without hesitation, raised his legs and left, followed by Abu.
