21. Ten Thousand Club (Happy Lantern Festival)
Dear brothers and sisters, whether you are at home or abroad, today is our common Lantern Festival! I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival! ****
"Queen? Is this its model? Yamaha-Queen?" Hans's mouth was filled with a series of questions, and Sophie's expression made him feel energetic.
The female doctor shook her head hard and said, "No, this is her nickname. In fact, her model is CFX, Yamaha-CFX."
Li Du held his arms and motioned: "Maybe you can get in the car and turn it on, play it, and try the feeling of the keys."
This piano is a grand piano and is the master of the piano. It must be two meters and seven meters long and weigh more than half a ton. It is too difficult to lift it up and down from the car, so it stays in the car.
Hans said: "You underestimated our little Sophie. She has been in contact with the piano since she was a child. She can confirm the identity of the piano without having to take a look."
Sophie said with a smile: "Your friend saw how I like her, so he invited me to play it and try it out. It's not that he doesn't believe in my eyes."
Li Du really meant this. The expression that the female doctor showed after seeing it at the first glance made him realize how much she liked the piano.
He said this casually, but unexpectedly Sophie could hear what he meant.
Hans blinked and suddenly said, "Man, you have a good impression of Sophie."
Li Du and Sophie were stunned together, and the former shouted: "Boss Fu, why are you crazy? Doctor Sophie and I have met for the second time, so you brought me to see her!"
"Don't deny it, I can see, man, I support you in pursuit of little Sophie, she is the princess of our Flagstaff City." Hans encouraged, but his smile was a little malicious.
Sophie raised her hand to surrender: "OK, OK, let's continue to discuss CFX? Don't you want to know the value of this piano?"
For money, Hans finally shut up.
"CF is a series in Yamaha. In this series, the concept of grand piano is beauty and power. Beauty is to describe the richness and splendor of the tone and sound expressed by the piano. Power refers to its tone projection."
"You know that the CF series has excellent musical expression and sufficient tone liveness. Even in a large concert hall, its performance is hard to ignore in collaboration with the entire symphony orchestra."
Speaking of this, Sophie closed her eyes and showed an aftertaste on her pretty face: "When I was studying at Juilliard, I had the honor to hear Mr. Browning play the "Diabailey Variations" with CFX. God's clarification, that's really the joy of the sky!"
Hans said: "Then how much does this piano cost? I feel like it's worth millions of dollars when you say it."
Sophie laughed and said, "How is it possible? The new CFX is only more than 100,000 yuan. If this one is sold for more than one million yuan, it will be unless it is the handmade piano treasured in the Yamaha Music Memorial Hall."
"Then how much do you think this piano is worth?" Hans asked expectantly.
Sophie hesitated and said, "Can I go up and take a closer look? You know, Hans, I'm not very good at estimating."
"sure."
Li Du kept looking at Sophie's expression. When she showed a hesitation, he felt something was wrong.
Sophie turned on the piano and pressed a few keys, but no sound came out.
Hans also knew that the situation was not good, so he said in surprise: "Is this piano broken?"
Sophie gently bit her cherry lips with her bald teeth and said, "No, she is not broken, it's just different from what you expected. She is a training piano."
"What?" Hans looked confused.
"It means that this piano is for training and display, and can also be used as home decoration, but it cannot be used for playing." Sophie shrugged regretfully.
Hans and Li Du took a breath at the same time. The blow was too big, bigger than the first time they picked up the broken massage chair.
Sophie quickly added: "But this does not mean that she is not worth it. Even for training pianos, CFX still needs more than 30,000 yuan to buy it. It is made of a one-to-one ratio. Except for the different sound structure, the other parts are exactly the same as the real CFX."
"Then how much do you think this piano can cost?" Hans asked.
Sophie hesitated for a moment and said, "If I were asked to offer, I would give you 20,000 yuan."
Hans was overjoyed and said, "Ten Nine Thousand, Sophie, I'll sell you one thousand yuan cheaper."
Sophie's pretty face was confused: "..."
The sales of training pianos are relatively narrow, either sold to musical instrument collectors, to piano schools, to wealthy people, or to rich people who need decoration.
If Qin asked Li Du to deal with it, she would probably have to lose her hands.
Hans is indeed very connected. The next day he contacted an insurance company in Flagpole City. After another day, he sold the piano on the third day.
The final price of this piano is 15,000 yuan. Sophie was estimating it to comfort the two of them, and Hans knew her, so she made the joke at the beginning.
The drum set was also sold for a good price. When Li Du searched online, he knew that it could be sold at least 3,000 yuan, but in the end he sold for 7,200 yuan.
This totaled 22,200 yuan, but Hans was very satisfied with it after making so much money after just going to Phoenix.
Considering that Li Du spent at least 2,000 yuan to eat and drink in a Mexican restaurant, he was even more satisfied.
Apart from the 250 yuan gas, bribes and car rental money, they made 22,400 yuan, and Li Du got more than 13,000 yuan.
The money was fast enough. At night, he touched the little insect tattoo in his palm and thought to himself, if he had obtained this thing early, he would have been a graduate student in birds.
After allocating the money, Hans took a form for Li Du and asked him to fill it in.
Li Du saw that the look of the form was "American Warehouse and Treasure Picking Association", which contained private information such as name, ethnicity, address and contact information.
"What's this?"
“Application form for Ten Thousand-Ten Thousand Club.”
Li Du was curious and asked, "What is the Ten Thousand-yuan club?"
Hans said: "Oh, I forgot that you are a rookie. By the way, you performed so well, always made me think you are a treasure digger."
"I will introduce you to the Warehousing and Treasure Picking Association. As the name suggests, it is the union of our industry. The 10,000 yuan club is the association's first VIP member, and there are 100,000 yuan clubs, millions clubs and even legendary 100,000 yuan clubs."
"To join the 10,000 yuan club, the treasurer needs to earn at least 10,000 yuan at one time in a warehouse auction. We have done it now, so we can join."
Li Du suddenly realized and said, "Then do we have to pay the membership fee? What rights can we enjoy? What responsibilities should we bear accordingly?"
"There are many rights, let's experience it slowly in the future. As for responsibilities, members should help each other. The association has suffered a major blow and needs to help. In short, it's all nonsense." Hans grinned.
"In terms of rights, tell me one." Li Du didn't see the rabbit and didn't show the eagle.
"Okay, let me give you an example. You saw that every time I process these goods, it is very simple, right? It is easy to find the channels for processing, right? In fact, these channels are obtained from the club, and everyone will share relevant information to facilitate each other's processing of goods."
