Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 175: speechless

Mong Kok, Hong Kong.

There are many flea shops in Mong Kok, most of which sell antiques.

These bosses have club backgrounds, know simple English, and even speak multiple languages. They sell some bottles and jars and messy things in the store to ghosts who come to Hong Kong and other tourists.

Of course, there are also some prodigal sons who secretly bring ancestral treasures to such places as consignment.

At this moment, the antique shop Shi Zhijian is visiting is the most famous "Qibao Pavilion" in Mong Kok.

The boss, Da Jinya, was wearing a Tang shirt, wiping snuff, and holding a gilded ivory origami fan in his left hand to help Shi Zhijian introduce the treasures he had accumulated in the store.

Looking around, it is nothing more than some indistinguishable porcelain, calligraphy and painting, in addition to some large Western wall clocks, single-retracting telescopes used by pirates, music boxes, and antique books in foreign languages.

Shi Zhijian was not interested in these and asked if there were vinyl records or something.

When Da Jinya heard this, he immediately gave a thumbs up: "It turns out that Mr. is a literate man! In addition to these broken copper and iron, clay tiles and porcelain pieces, I really have some old records, but there are not many hidden ones. If you like, you can choose whatever you want."

As he spoke, Da Jinya led Shi Zhijian to a shelf. Compared with the tall shelves where porcelain was placed, this shelf was a bit shabby, with some records stuffed on it in a mess.

The records of this era have not been turned into antiques. Unless they are famous works, they cannot be sold at all.

Da Jinya saw that Shi Zhijian was dressed well, and thought that he could get a lot of money when he met a big client. Unexpectedly, Shi Zhijian was only interested in records, so he was not in the mood to introduce himself, so he took a feather duster and went to dust the porcelain Dust, occasionally stop to take a sip of snuff, take a sip of old tea, and enjoy yourself.

Without Da Jinya making a fuss, Shi Zhijian can calm down and choose those records.

There are various types of records, not only Cantonese opera, Huangmei Opera, which is currently popular in Hong Kong, but also British rock music, American jazz, and soprano Italian opera.

Shi Zhijian selected a record of Elvis Presley for a long time, and after playing for a long time, his eyes lit up, but it was the debut album "Please Please Me" by the most popular rock band The Beatles.

Five years ago, the album set a record for 30 consecutive weeks at the top of the UK Pop Albums Chart.

Just as Shi Zhijian was about to reach for the vinyl record, there was a pair of jade hands beside him who also went to get the record at the same time.

The jade hand was obviously a step slower, grabbing onto Shi Zhijian's hand.

"I'm sorry, sir!" A clear female voice came from next to Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian turned his head to look, but she was a girl in her twenties. She was not dressed in a foreign style, on the contrary, she was dressed in a simple way, with black hair **** behind her head and a tall stature, like a tender model in the previous life. She looks like a mixed race, with bright blue eyes, a high nose bridge, plump lips, and smooth and delicate skin, but she is a real beauty.

"Oh, it doesn't matter," Shi Zhijian found out that the other party was speaking Cantonese.

"That..." The mixed-race beauty was a little hesitant, but in the end she couldn't help but pointed to the vinyl record in Shi Zhijian's hand and said, "I'm sorry, I really like this record, can you give it to me? I?"

Shi Zhijian looked down at the record and looked up at the mixed-race beauty: "I'm sorry, I like this record too. The Beatles' debut album is hard to find!"

The light on the face of the mixed-race beauty instantly dimmed, and I felt pity for her pretty appearance.

"Sir, you can make an offer, and I'll exchange anything with you for this record." The mixed-race beauty once again summoned her courage, as if she didn't want to miss this rare Beatles album.

Shi Zhijian knew that the beauty in front of her was a "die-hard fan" of the Beatles, and a fan like this had signs of becoming obsessed in her previous life. Seeing her gnashing her teeth and making a decision, it was estimated that the poisoning was not serious.

Shi Zhijian shook his head, and just as he was about to refuse, he heard Da Jinya shout from there: "Miss Bellatie, I have already found the antique book "Earn Poe Tales" you asked for last time, if you don't want it ?"

The mixed-race beauty immediately turned her head and said to Da Jinya: "Of course I want it, thank you first! Please help me wrap it up!"

"Halle!" Da Jinya was very happy, this kind of foreign devil's book was very difficult to sell, and there was a lot of backlog in his store. Now he sells a copy to earn a copy, and this Miss Bellatie often bids a lot of money.

She should have been very happy to buy her beloved book, but what she liked more was the Beatles record in Shi Zhijian's hand, so she immediately looked back at Shi Zhijian, waiting for his reply.

Shi Zhijian was stunned when Da Jinya called out the name "Bellotte", thinking that it would not be so coincidental, and immediately made a decision.

"I'm sorry, Miss Bellatie? I really can't assign this record to you."

When Belletti heard this, she was immediately disheartened.

Shi Zhijian: "But I can buy it and give it to you! Quan Dang is a gift for the first meeting!"

Turning around, Belle Di was overjoyed, and immediately said with a smile, "Thank you, sir! You are such a good person!"

Shi Zhijian apologised for a very gentlemanly ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and then started looking for Da Jinya to settle the bill.

Da Jinya can hear clearly from there, Shi Zhijian and this half-blooded ghost girl are fighting for this record. Originally, he could sell a record for ten dollars at most, but now there are people fighting for it, so if the price does not go up a few times. I can't say enough.

So when Shi Zhijian took the record to check out, Da Jinya immediately made a look like you found the treasure, touched the Beatles record and said, "I didn't expect your favorite record to be pulled out by you. I didn't want to sell a record!"

Who is Shi Zhijian? Just looking at the super exaggerated expression of Big Jin's teeth and grin, he knows that his acting skills are not good.

"Let's make a price!" Shi Zhijian was afraid that Da Jinya would say less, so that the mixed-race beauty Bella Tie would be a little lighter in her favor, so he deliberately reminded Da Jinya: "I know this is about to be out of print. Beatles albums are hard to come by overseas, but it is a commodity after all and should have its own price!"

Da Jinya knew about the ghostly Beatles, but he knew about Pima Daixiao.

"Sir, when you say that, I'm too embarrassed to ask for a price. After all, you also said that this is a very precious record. Or five..."

Da Jinya stretched out a slap, and was about to ask for "fifty" when Shi Zhijian said first: "Okay! Five hundred is five hundred! We'll make a promise!"

Da Jinya was dumbfounded, but he quickly woke up and tried his best to put on a bitter face and said to Shi Zhijian, "Sir is so shrewd, I am speechless!"
