Hardy Empire 1945

Walking into an antique shop in the commercial street, the owner is a middle-aged man in his forties, and he nodded politely when he saw Hardy coming in.

Hardy turned around by himself in the shop.

There are European furniture, silver jewelry, and various cultural relics. Hardy saw a few pieces of porcelain in one corner.

There are two large plates, three small bowls and two vases. On the large plate is painted a birthday star, and the other is a picture of an ancient man riding a unicorn. Hardy didn't know who this ancient man was.

The three small bowls are exquisite, with pictures of flowers, birds, fish and insects and figures traveling on them. The bottles are a pair of jade pot spring bottles with a pair of golden pheasants painted on them.

"Guests like these porcelains from the East?" The boss walked over and asked, seeing Hardy standing in front of the porcelain for a long time.

"What's the price of these porcelains?" Hardy asked.

"These two plates are 120 dollars each, the three small bowls are 80 dollars each, and this pair of vases is 300 dollars." The boss said.

"It's a bit expensive."

The prices of porcelain seen by Hardy in New York are generally a lot higher.

"Look at how beautiful their patterns are. This is a rare boutique. It is said to be from the Oriental Huaguo Palace. It was used by their emperors in the past. I have asked someone about it. They have a history of more than two hundred years."

Seeing Hardy's intention, the boss introduced him.

More than 200 years of history.

Hardy thought about it.

It may be during the Qianlong period.

I picked up the porcelain and looked at the base. It is indeed Qianlong's. It seems that the boss has found someone to see it.

Said from the palace.

Probably it was taken from the Old Summer Palace or the Forbidden City when the Eight-Power Allied Forces entered Beijing.

"I pay $80 each for the plate, $50 each for the small bowl, and $200 for this pair of vases. If I agree, I will ask for it all." Hardy counter-offered.

The boss immediately shook his head.

"No, no, the price you gave is too low."

The two men began to bargain and talked for more than ten minutes. The final price was set and both gave way. The total price was 660 US dollars. The two sides shook hands to reach an agreement.

The boss went to the back to take the suitcase and prepare to pack. Just then two girls walked into the antique shop. One was a white girl with brown hair, tall, and the other was an Asian girl, about 1.65 meters tall and beautiful.

Regardless of the previous life or this life, among all the girls Hardy had seen, the look of the Asian girl in front of him was extremely beautiful.

The skin is supple and beautiful.

Hardy couldn't help but glance again.

When the girl saw Hardy, she thought it was the boss and nodded slightly to say hello. Hardy smiled and nodded in response.

The girl glanced across the items in the antique shop, and finally landed on the pieces of Chinese porcelain on the table, and walked over to look carefully.

After a while, the girl turned to look at Hardy, "Boss, what is the price of these porcelains?"

Hardy said in his heart, it seems that the girl misunderstood herself.

But it's also quite interesting.

Stepped forward and stood next to the girl, pointing to the porcelain and said: "These two plates are 120 dollars each, the three small bowls are 80 dollars each, and this pair of vases is 300 dollars."

The girl nodded.

She looked at the pieces of porcelain again, she liked each one very much, but she didn't have that much money in her pocket, so she could only buy one after she gritted her teeth.

The rest can only be given up.

Reluctant to give up.

Xin said that he can only take a look.

Hardy stood only one meter away from the girl, and a pure fragrance wafted from the girl.

Smells good.

Her neck is slender and very beautiful when she bows her head slightly.

Finally, she looked away from the pair of Yuhuchun, pointed to one of the small bowls and said: "Boss, can this be cheaper? I'm willing to pay 60 dollars."

The girl looked up at Hardy.

Hardy immediately looked away from the girl's neck.

It was found to be very impolite.

"You like this little bowl, do you know its origin?" Hardy asked.

The girl thought for a while and said: "This should be the porcelain from the Chinese palace, the yellow glazed peony pattern, these dragon patterns, and the base, which is enough to explain his origin."

"What is a dragon pattern?" Hardy looked at the small bowl in surprise.

The girl stretched out her slender fingers to point out the patterns on the small bowl to Hardy, and Hardy leaned over to look. The two were closer and could almost breathe.

Just then the middle-aged boss came back, holding two boxes in his hand, and saw the girl said to Hardy: "The box is found, I will pack it for you."

Then go get those porcelain.

Han Yezhen was taken aback, then turned to look at Hardy, "Are you not the boss?"

Hardy smiled.

"I bought antiques."

The girl watched the boss install porcelain, blinked her eyes and asked Hardy: "Have you bought all of these?"

When the boss heard it next to him, he smiled and replied, "Yes, this gentleman bought all these porcelains. Miss, what do you want to buy?"

The girl paused.

"I want to buy porcelain too."

The boss was a little surprised. No one asked about these porcelains. It's really strange why two of them came here all at once.

Knowing that the porcelain had been bought, Han Yizhen didn't bother to go to the counter to look at other items. She found a beautiful hosta in the glass cabinet of the counter.

"Boss, how do you sell this hosta?" the girl asked.

The boss stopped the boxing hand and looked at it, "This is 35 dollars."

Show it to the girl.

This hosta is carved by Hetian white jade. The hairpin is simple and elegant. The hairpin is a crested head. The whole body is white and gentle. The girl has looked at it for a long time.

"Is 30 dollars okay?" the girl said.

The boss looked at the girl.

"Okay, I'll sell you."

The girl paid for the bill. The boss took out a long jewelry box and gave it to the girl. The girl thanked the boss, put the hosta in the box and put it in her bag, and asked her partner Irina to leave the antique shop.

Hardy looked back at the girl's back disappearing in the antique shop window.

......

Although I didn't buy the porcelain I like, Han Yezhen was also very happy to buy a hairpin. This time it was a worthwhile trip.

"Yejin, what is the stick you bought for?" Irina asked.

"It's not a stick, it's a hairpin." Han Yizhen explained.

"What is a hairpin?"

"It's an ancient hairpin."

"Oh~~"

Irina understood.

When the two were chatting, a few figures suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way, and the two girls were shocked, because among the six or seven men, they saw the thief who had just stolen their bag.

The two girls immediately realized that these people must have come for revenge.

Among the group of people, a slightly taller guy looked at the two girls, smiled and turned his head to the thief and said, "Aimo, it's really shameful that you were beaten up by the two girls."

After speaking, he turned to look at Han Yejin and Irina, with a smirk, "But these two girls are really beautiful."

Irina was already terrified.

Reached out and grabbed Han Yezhen's arm.

In fact, Han Yezhen is also a little scared now. Although she knows how to deal with one or two people, she can deal with so many people, and she is still an adult man. She doesn't have the strength, unless the bodyguards at home.

"Run!"

Han Yezhen made a decisive decision, grabbed Irina, turned her head and ran.

A few gangsters caught up in stride.

Where did the two girls run these guys, they were surrounded by more than a dozen meters after they ran out.

Someone was about to come up to catch the girl. Irina screamed and beat her with her bag, and she was snatched away after just two blows.

Han Yezhen kicked a guy who was about to catch him, but another one came over to catch her the next second, and she immediately kicked it again. This time, she used a vicious move and kicked that guy in the crotch.

"Ohhhh~~!"

The guy immediately rolled to the ground in pain.

"I can't deal with a little girl, idiot, let's go together!" the boss shouted impatiently.

Several men rushed up together,

Han Yezhen also panicked, smashed at one of them with her bag, turned around to deal with the other two, just blocked one guy's fist, but the other grabbed his arm.

The girl was surprised to know that it was not good.

at this time.

A figure appeared next to the girl.

"Bang~!"

The fist slammed on the face of the guy holding the girl's arm.

"Wow~!"

This guy seemed to fly out, and fell to the ground three or four meters away in the next second.

"Boom boom boom~!"

Hardy made a few more punches in a row.

Fight out all the gangsters around.

Finally stood in front of the two girls.

Han Yezhen looked at the man in surprise and said, "It's you!"

"Ah, it's the gentleman from the antique shop." Irina also said.

A few **** quickly got up from the ground and saw the strong Hardy. They knew that he was not easy to provoke after just a few shots.

"Go~!"

The boss yelled, and a group of guys quickly slid into the alley.

Hardy did not chase.

Although these guys don't put him in his eyes, he knows the truth about the poor, and he is a mafia boss, there is no need to have a general knowledge of these little gangsters, there are ways to deal with them.

"Ah~~our bag!"

Irina couldn't help but yelled as the gangsters ran away.

But she didn't dare to chase.

Can only stomp in place.

The action is a bit funny and a bit cute.

"Oh, my living expenses this month are all in my bag, as well as my newly bought cosmetics." Irina couldn't help but feel sad.

Han Yezhen was also a little sad.

"The hairpin I just bought was also snatched by them."

"These **** thieves!" Irina couldn't help crying at last, the money was lost, and he didn't know how to spend this month.

Han Yezhen looked at Hardy next to him, "This gentleman, thank you for saving us just now."

"My name is Jon Hardy." Hardy reported to his home.

"Ah~ Thank you Mr. Hardy." Han Yezhen said again.

"Meeting for the second time, don't you know what your names are?" Hardy asked.

"My name is Han Yezhen, and she is my roommate Irina." Han Yezhen said.

"Are you guys OK?"

Hardy looked up and down at the girl ~www.novelmt.com~ After all, he had just experienced a battle. In fact, he was surprised when he saw this Asian girl in the distance using Chinese kung fu against those gangsters.

"We are fine." Han Yizhen said.

At this moment, Irina, who was next to him, said with a crying voice: "We are now penniless, how can we go back to school? Are we going back to Southern California?"

Han Yezhen also showed embarrassment.

Hardy looked at the two girls and said, "My car is not far away. Should I take you back?"

"Is this too much trouble." Han Yizhen hesitated.

Irina dragged her female companion and whispered: "Don't refuse, or we really want to go back."

In fact, her voice was not small enough to be heard by Hardy. Hardy knew that Irina deliberately wanted to hear her. She was really an interesting girl.

"Let's go, Southern University, I'll drop in."
