198 300,000 pounds for a white tiger(2/2)
Now he was truly sure that Chu Xiangqian was not only a master in fighting, he should also know how to teach his disciples.
And judging from his age, if he really teaches himself, maybe he can be as good as Chu Xiangqian.
After Chu Qianqian finished playing, he smiled and said to Norton, "Come over and try?"
Norton nodded hurriedly, his hands trembling with excitement as he stood where Chu moved forward.
Follow Chu Xiangqian’s instructions and start practicing slowly.
But within a short while, I felt pain in my wrists and arms.
Chu Xiangqian immediately stopped and deliberately said sarcastically, "Forget it, you can't learn kung fu like this. I'll teach you some self-defense skills. If you meet an ordinary person, you can defeat him with a few surprises.<
/p>
And with this body technique, rather than practicing martial arts to knock down your opponent, it’s better to think about exercising your body through martial arts.”
Norton was anxious, "Master, I can endure the pain. Please don't jump to conclusions so early."
Chu shrugged forward, "Regardless of Kung Fu or other fighting skills, to put it bluntly, the prerequisite for defeating the opponent is that you must first have a good body.
Strength, speed, and reaction ability are indispensable.
Otherwise, no matter how good your skills are, if you punch your opponent, they will only feel pain.
And if you fall down after receiving a punch, then I advise you not to learn to fight, but to practice marksmanship instead.
After all, no matter how good you are in kung fu, you can't stop bullets."
Norton and the bodyguard were dumbfounded at the same time, but thinking about it carefully, what Chu Xiangqian said was absolutely correct.
Norton couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
Chu Xiangqian thought he would give up, but after Norton calmed down, he looked up at him and said, "Master, I will make a strict exercise plan.
The next time you see me, it will definitely be different from now."
Chu Qianqian could only say a few words of encouragement, and Norton immediately said with a smile as if he had come back to life, "Master, I will accomplish what I promised you.
A batch of antiques from China will arrive in a few days. As for Picasso's oil paintings, it may take a week or two. No more than a month at the latest."
Chu Xiangqian felt relieved and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get the white tiger skin."
After saying that, I went downstairs and went out.
After a while, I got back in a rickshaw carrying a big baggage.
Doing this is nothing more than a precaution to prevent people from thinking that the things are at home and giving them inappropriate thoughts.
After going up to the second floor, I unpacked my bag and found a huge white tiger skin spread out. Just looking at it made my scalp numb.
It's the same as going to the zoo and looking at the tiger through the thick glass, always feeling numb in the back.
After getting Chu Qianqian's permission, the bodyguard stepped forward and leaned over to take a closer look.
After a while, he looked at Chu Qianqian and nodded and said, "Sir, not only is this white tiger huge enough, but you also handled it extremely well, even better than any handling technique I have ever seen.
If it were auctioned in London, I believe the starting price would be 10,000 pounds.
When you meet someone you like, 30,000 to 50,000 pounds won’t be a problem.
We can purchase Mr. Picasso's oil paintings of the same value for you based on a valuation of 40,000 pounds.
The specific number of paintings depends on luck."
Chu Qianqian thought for a while and nodded. White tigers and white lions are both enthusiastically sought after by Europeans and Americans.
Some people are even willing to spend millions of dollars just to kill a white lion with their own hands.
Of course, that was more than thirty or forty years later.
Chu Xiangqian was moved in his heart, looked at the bodyguard and asked, "How much money would the nobles and rich people in London pay for a living white tiger, or would they kill it with their own hands?"
"No, no, no, master," Norton rushed to say, "Such a precious animal must have been caught alive. If it were shipped to London, there would be people who wanted it for one hundred thousand or three hundred thousand pounds."
Although Chu Xiangqian knew that there were many wealthy people in Europe and America these days, he was still stunned for a few seconds when he heard about three hundred thousand pounds.
Three hundred thousand pounds converted into Hong Kong dollars is 4.8 million.
You can buy several villas in Mid-Levels.
If you go to Repulse Bay to buy land and build a villa, you can build a manor with a large area.
In a few decades, it will be billions at least.
After calming down, Chu Qianqian thought silently that the place where he caught the white tiger must not be placed inland.
To avoid being scolded by the Chinese people after breaking the news.
The only good thing is that the protection of animals these days is not as strict as it will be in the future.
All you need to do is find a country where hunting is not illegal, and after the white tigers that spawn in Novice Village at the end of each month are spawned, go to that country for a walk.
Put the tiger in a cage and transport it to the sea to trade.
After thinking about it, Chu Xiangqian immediately thought of the Philippines.
Just thinking about it again, the tigers in the game all weigh four to five hundred kilograms, and Asian tigers cannot grow that big.
If you leave the money in China, your superiors will definitely take it away, but if you think about it seriously, you can also take the opportunity to get antiques.
Or jade.
If it were all replaced with hotan mutton-fat white jade, it would be another great investment.
Just get a boat and put the white tiger in an iron cage at sea. If the buyer asks where it was caught, keep it a secret.
Looking at Norton and his bodyguards, "Give me a month, and I will get a white tiger weighing four to five hundred pounds and send it to the sea.
300,000 pounds, I don’t care how much you can sell it for later.”
Norton didn't know much about business, and he had never even done business.
But his bodyguard also serves as an assistant. Although he is not familiar with business matters, he knows a lot about many rumors and things in London's aristocratic circles.
He lowered his head and thought about it, and soon felt that, let alone other nobles, Mountbatten himself might be willing to buy this white tiger for 300,000 pounds.
After all, compared to a thoroughbred horse, 300,000 pounds cannot even buy the legs of a champion horse.
For those rich and noble people who are curious, White Tiger is the only one in England.
Maybe you can make double the profit if you resell it, or even more.
"No problem," the bodyguard said, and his heart moved. It was not difficult for Mountbatten to get 300,000 pounds in cash, but it was not that easy to come up with.
If you replace it with antiques from the Chinese Dynasty, or oil paintings by unknown European and American painters, or even very famous works, the prices are not high.
Even if you use Picasso's oil paintings to offset the 300,000 pounds, it is still a good thing to earn some agency fees.
"SIR, can you use antiques from China and, as you said, oil paintings by painters like Picasso to offset part of the payment?"
These words can be said to have spoken to Chu Xiangqian's heart.
But his expression was pretending to be hesitant, and he thought for a while before nodding, "I will find someone to appraise and evaluate the value of the Chinese cultural relics and oil paintings you brought."
The bodyguard nodded hurriedly, "No problem, SIR, the Mountbatten family is worthy of your trust. At the same time, you only need to pay something valuable, and we will serve you wholeheartedly."
Chu Xiangqian knows more about the virtues of capitalists than most people in China these days.
As long as it does not involve their interests and can provide them with benefits, not to mention the nobility, even the royal family can put down their dignity.
Even the President of the United States can be a broker, and maybe he will award you a medal because the benefits are great enough.
After agreeing to trade at sea one month later, Chu Xiangqian sent Norton and his bodyguard away. After thinking about it, he also needed to find an excuse to return to the mainland.
Otherwise, if a transaction involving 300,000 pounds is involved, it would be unreasonable to pretend to confirm the goods in person without leaving Hong Kong Island.
But before I leave, I have to finish the things here.
I went out to find a building materials store, bought a lot of steel, transported it to a small rented warehouse, waited for the people to leave, put it into the game, and built three iron cages in the blacksmith shop.
After the game is refreshed at night, lure the newly spawned tiger into three iron cages connected together, 9 meters long, and both ends can be opened.
Chu Qianqian escaped from the iron cage by himself, and closed the iron cage with his backhand. The tit on the other end hit the mechanism, and the iron door closed with a clang, and the two small mechanisms were easily stuck.
Then at the connection point of the iron cage, the raised iron gate was lowered and the tiger was driven into an iron cage.
Chapter completed!
