Chapter 37 Buying Musical Instruments
Xu Hao rushed to the Emperor Musical Instruments Store in Central at 2:50. After paying and getting out of the taxi, he saw Gu Jiahui standing at the door. He quickly walked up and said, "Uncle Gu, I'm sorry for keeping you so long."
Waiting”
Gu Jiahui laughed and said, "Ah Hao, I've just arrived. Come on, let's go in and have a look. This store is the best musical instrument store in Xiangjiang. It has a complete range of varieties and the quality is very good. I'm familiar with the boss here."
Entering inside, I saw a young man about thirty years old walking up and saying with a smile, "Mr. Gu, you haven't been to my shop for many days. When I saw you today, Mr. Gu's face was glowing. Is there something wrong with you recently?"
Is it a good thing?"
Gu Jiahui smiled and said, "Ayan, didn't I recruit a good apprentice two days ago? This is Xu Hao. Come on, Ahao, let me introduce to you. This is Sun Yansun, the owner of this store."
boss"
Boss Sun smiled and said, "Seeing that this handsome young man can catch Mr. Gu's eye, he must be very talented. I wonder what musical instrument Mr. Gu and apprentice Ling want to buy today?"
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Boss Sun praised me. Today, it is mainly my master who makes the decision. I am just a soy sauce person. I just followed to open my eyes."
Gu Jiahui said, "Ayan, this disciple doesn't have any musical instruments yet. I just want to buy him some musical instruments today."
Sun Yan asked, "I wonder what musical instruments both of you need? Mr. Gu, you also know that we have the most complete varieties and the best quality here."
Gu Jiahui said, "The first one is a piano and a guitar. Let Ahao pick one he likes. Just these three."
When Sun Yan heard this, he was overjoyed. It seemed like this was a big deal, so he smiled broadly and said more kindly, "I wonder what kind of quality Mr. Gu needs?"
Xu Hao followed up by saying, "The highest grade, timbre, and quality are all required to be the best. Let's see what instruments my master needs, and you can choose the best for him."
Gu Jiahui felt warm in his heart. It seemed that he had a good vision. Even though he was a young apprentice, he was still thinking about himself in his heart.
So he smiled and said, "Then just do what Ah Hao said, me? There's no need for that."
Sun Yan chuckled and said, "Mr. Gu, you two came at the right time. Our store just imported two Styburg pianos from Germany a few days ago. Styburg pianos were founded in the ancient German city of Leipzig in 1877. The company has been established almost
For a century, it is one of the oldest and most famous piano manufacturers in German history. One is dark and the other is white. Mr. Gu, take a look here."
When he came to the two pianos, Xu Hao fell in love with the white one at first sight. Look at the workmanship and luster, they were the best. That was the piano.
Xu Hao asked, "Boss Sun, I wonder if you can let my master try the tone?"
Sun Yan smiled and said, "With Mr. Gu, a music master here, I will definitely be able to audition. Come, Mr. Gu invites you."
When Gu Jiahui saw Xu Hao's eyes shining, he knew that his apprentice liked the white piano, so he walked over and sat in front of the white piano and played a short piece.
When Xu Hao heard the music played by Gu Jiahui, he secretly said in his heart, "Yes, it is indeed a world famous brand. The tone is really good. Although he can't play the piano, he has never eaten pork and has always seen pigs running away. In his previous life, he
After listening to so many piano music, I can still tell the difference between good and bad timbre (but during this period of time, I really can’t afford to eat pork anymore).”
Seeing Gu Jiahui finish playing the song, Xu Hao smiled and said, "That's it, let's choose another guitar."
As soon as Sun Yan saw the appearance of these two people, he knew that this young man was the one who made the decision and paid for it, so he said, "Mr. Xu, we happen to have two Fender guitars made in the United States that are handmade in the United States.
It’s also a world-famous brand. You two should sit over there in the customer rest room and rest for a while. I’ll get it for you right away.”
Arriving at the customer rest room, Gu Jiahui and Xu Hao had just sat down when Sun Yan asked, "What would you like to drink, Mr. Gu? Coffee or tea?"
Gu Jiahui knew that Xu Hao liked to drink tea, so he said, "Then please bring A Yan a pot of tea."
After a while, Sun Yan came over with a pot of tea. After pouring the tea for the two of them, he said, "Mr. Gu, please drink some tea first. I will go and get the guitar for you two."
After Sun Yan left, Gu Jiahui asked Xu Hao, "Ahao, what do you think of that white piano?"
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Uncle Gu, I don't know much about this, but I like the appearance and color of that white piano very much."
Gu Jiahui smiled and said, "I think that white piano is good, so I'll buy it."
While the two were talking, Sun Yan came over with two guitars. Gu Jiahui picked one and said with a smile, "A Yan, just this guitar and the white piano, and Ah Hao, look at you."
If you need any other musical instruments, please tell Ayan."
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Boss Sun, I wonder if you have heard of an instrument like Tao Yun?"
Sun Yan immediately frowned and murmured, "Tao Yun, Tao Yun, is still a musical instrument."
Suddenly Sun Yan opened his eyes wide and said excitedly, "Is it round and made of soil, with a few small holes on it?"
Xu Hao suddenly stood up and said, "Yes, that's what it looks like. I wonder if Boss Sun has it here?"
Sun Yan smiled and said, "I have one, but I don't know if it will work? This was smuggled from the mainland the year before last. He came to my store with this thing and said it was a musical instrument called Tao Yun, and there were some
He was getting older and wanted to change some money. He said that he could no longer survive. I looked at him and felt very pitiful.
He was from the Mainland, so I gave him 100 Hong Kong dollars and kept that thing. I didn’t put it outside. It was put in my office. I had forgotten about it. Wasn’t this what Mr. Xu said about Tao Yun?
When I think about it, I will get it for you, Mr. Xu. If it is really what you want, Mr. Xu, I will give it to you for free."
Within a few minutes, I saw Sun Yan coming over with a wooden box in his arms, and then he put it in front of Xu Hao and said, "Mr. Xu, this is it. Can you open it and see if it's the Tao Yun you want?"
Xu Hao opened the wooden box and saw that it was Tao Yun. It was exactly the same as his master's. Looking at the color, it might have been a little older.
In fact, when Xu Hao was a child, his master often played Tao Yun on the back mountain in the morning. However, when he was six years old, for some unknown reason, his master threw the Tao Yun and never saw him again.
Let the master play again.
So Xu Hao said, "Yes, Boss Sun, this is it. By the way, Boss Sun, please calculate the price."
When Sun Yan heard this, he smiled and said, "That's fine. As long as Mr. Xu wants it, I will give this Tao Yun to Mr. Xu. As for the price of the piano, it is HKD 128,800.
That guitar costs 4,500 Hong Kong dollars. The total is 133,300 Hong Kong dollars. Mr. Gu is also a regular customer of our store. I will give Mr. Xu a 10% discount. Mr. Xu, just give me 120,000 Hong Kong dollars."
Xu Hao secretly smiled. It seemed that Sun Yan's accounts were really clear. He probably had already done the calculations in his office just now. So he took out his check book and said with a smile, "Okay, then just do what Boss Sun said."
Xu Hao wrote the check with a "swish", tore it off and handed it to Sun Yan and said, "This is a check from HSBC Bank. Boss Sun is optimistic about it. I wonder if Boss Sun will deliver the goods here?"
Sun Yan took the check, took a look at it, and said with a smile, "For old customers like Mr. Gu and big customers like Mr. Xu, our store provides free shipping and will deliver it to the designated place for you to put away. This is
Please rest assured, Mr. Gu and Mr. Xu.”
As soon as Xu Hao heard this, he said, "I'm sorry to bother Boss Sun. You can send me to the Chinese Medical Center on Beacon Hill. I'll live there. Uncle Gu, let's go then."
Gu Jiahui stood up and said, "Well, Ayan, just be busy. We'll see you next time."
After leaving the musical instrument store, Xu Hao said, "Uncle Gu, I'm really troubling you today. Why don't you go to my place to drink some tea? I have good tea there."
Gu Jiahui smiled and said, "Ahao, are you still polite to your Uncle Gu? I have to go to Shaw Brothers Movies for some business soon, so I won't go to your place. I will teach you again at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Goodbye."
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Then I will sweep the ruins tomorrow afternoon to welcome Uncle Gu. Goodbye, Uncle Gu."
Xu Hao returned to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic. Zhao Jun and the others were not at home. After an hour, he saw a flatbed truck pulling a piano and four workers came. Xu Hao asked them to carry the piano to the room on the second floor.
After putting it in the guest room, he took out a hundred Hong Kong dollars and gave it to the leading worker and said, "Thank you guys, I will buy a pack of cigarettes for these guys with this money."
The leading worker laughed and took the money and said, "Thank you, boss, thank you boss, then we will go back."
After seeing off the four workers, Xu Hao went to the second floor to take out the guitar and play it. This guitar was much better than the one he borrowed from others in his previous life. Xu Hao also played the guitar in his previous life, but it was not even a beginner's degree.
Then he hung the guitar on the wall, took out the Tao Yun and looked at it. He really didn’t understand this. His master had never taught him this, and he had never seen it in his previous life. But Uncle Gu will come tomorrow to see if he can teach him.
Own.
Thinking of this, Xu Hao slapped himself on the forehead. I felt dizzy. I made an appointment with Sister Zhi to buy clothes tomorrow, but just now Uncle Gu said he would come at four in the afternoon. Alas, life is really hard. I need to call now to ask about tomorrow.
What time will Sister Zhi come back?
When I came downstairs and dialed Zhao Yazhi's home phone, I heard the voice of Zhao Yazhi's mother from the other side, "Who are you looking for?"
Xu Hao quickly smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm Ahao. It's not that I forgot to ask Sister Zhi yesterday what time she will be back tomorrow. I'm going to pick her up at the airport."
Zhao Yazhi's mother smiled and said, "It's Ah Hao. When your sister Zhi went to work this morning, she also said that you would accompany her to buy clothes tomorrow. She would fly back at 11 o'clock tomorrow noon. You would pick her up when the time comes."
Bar"
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Okay, goodbye, Auntie."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Hao thought, "It seems that there is enough time tomorrow. After Sister Pei Zhi buys clothes, let her come here and learn some music knowledge with me. But we can't do that with Sister Zhi at night. If
If you can do that, then there should be more..."
Xu Hao was in a state of lust when Zhao Jun and the others entered the gate and said with a smile, "Brother Jun, you are finally back. Hurry up and cook. Look at my poor flowers, they are almost wilting. Today
I am almost exhausted, and I am also starving to death, I..."
Xu Hao was about to continue talking when Zhou Ting quickly said, "Ah Hao, I'm going to cook. It will be ready soon. You guys can chat slowly."
When Xu Hao heard this, he looked at Zhao Jun. Xiang Long smiled and said, "We will discuss it in the afternoon. From now on, we will take turns cooking. We cannot let A Jun cook alone."
When Xu Hao heard this, Xu Hao said with a smile, "Brother Jun, look at how much Brother Long and the others take care of you. You must be nice to them. But what if I can't get used to their food? You
Seeing as Brother Zhou is from Ji Province, the food he cooks must taste different from yours, or else it’s Brother Jun you..."
When Zhao Jun saw that Xu Hao was still going to talk nonsense, he quickly said, "Come on, Ah Hao, I don't know you yet. You just can't see me idle. Why did I meet this evil capitalist? My
Life is so hard.”
When Xiang Long and the others saw that Xu Hao and Zhao Jun were so close to each other, they didn't look like strangers they had just known for a few months. Their hearts moved slightly. It seemed that they needed to cherish them more in the future.
