76. Network is equal to channel (early morning
Li Du wanted to ask how much it cost, but worried that Sophie would misunderstand it, he was reluctant to let it go, so he shrugged and said, "Will you accept it if I have the chance to find another set and give it to you?"
Sophie giggled and waved her hand: "No, thank you for your kindness. My salary is enough to support me in buying these dolls. But that was just my impulse at that time, and later I had no idea about them."
Ah Miao squatted under her feet and looked at the high heels on her feet curiously. There was a small bow behind the shoes. It probably thought it was really a butterfly, so it stretched out its claws and scratched it twice.
When Li Du saw it, he quickly stopped it: "Don't catch it, meow, that's not a butterfly, you can't play..."
Ah Miao ignored him and tickled the bow and had fun playing.
Li Du squatted down and wanted to catch A Miao back, but when he stretched out his hand, A Miao rushed to Sophie's leg. Sophie subconsciously moved, Li Du reached forward, and finally grabbed the female doctor's calf.
This was the first time he had experienced the smooth touch of the beautiful legs in stockings, but the scene was a little awkward. He quickly stopped and stood up to apologize: "Sorry, I didn't mean it."
Sophie smiled easily and said, "It's okay, Ah Meow is very cute. If it likes to scratch, let it scratch."
Seeing that she misunderstood her words, Li Du explained: "I apologize for the fact that I just touched your leg."
Sophie giggled, "I know, I think you're a little shy, so I deliberately changed the subject, but do you want to continue like this?"
Li Du laughed awkwardly, the female doctor was obviously smarter than he expected.
Sophie didn't care. She continued to tease Ah Miao with her feet. After a while, the doctor would call her to help, so she waved her hand to Li Du and left.
As soon as the female doctor left, Hans' figure appeared like a ghost, and she smiled a little: "I understand, Li, no wonder you don't like my sister. It turns out that you already have a sweetheart?"
Li Du rolled his eyes and said, "Don't use your dirty thoughts to guess my personality. Dr. Sophie and I have a simple relationship. By the way, do you know that these Barbie dolls are treasures and seem to be very expensive."
This was a tempting topic for Hans. He ran to Mesa's mother and asked, "Mom, are you very knowledgeable about Barbie dolls? We just gave Victoria and the others some dolls."
Mesa's mother patted his shoulder with her big hand and smiled with satisfaction: "I saw it, Hans, Lee, you are such a good young man, but don't spend so much in the future. Just buy ordinary dolls, you don't need to buy a collector's version."
"Haha, is this a collector's version? How much does it cost? In fact, we got it at the warehouse auction and didn't know the price." Hans said.
"The market price of this collection of collectible dolls should be 5,000 yuan, because it was a limited edition when it was launched, and it is rare on the market now, so if they are actually selling for a higher price."
Speaking of this, Mama Mesa added: "You don't know its value? You should show it to me first, but it doesn't matter. I'll let the kids get it back and I'll fix the label sticker on the box, which is still the same as new."
Li Du quickly stopped him and said, "No, no, no, Mom Mesa, you misunderstood what we mean. We just want to understand the market, because we may encounter it again in the future. As for the gifts you give out, no matter how much you make, you can't get them back. The children's hobbies are not exchanged for any amount of money."
Hans also nodded and said, "Yes, Mom Mesa, what you said just now was insulting me. I didn't regret asking about value. You made me very unhappy."
Mesa's mother smiled and said, "Okay, Mesa's mother apologized to you. You are all good children like Sophie and the others. It is precisely because of people like you that the Lord has not given up on this world."
Li Du asked: "Are you very familiar with Dr. Sophie?"
Mesa's mother nodded and said, "Yes, I knew her when she was a girl, a kind and good girl. May God bless her. Now every year she calls on some colleagues to give us free physical examinations, otherwise how can we have the extra money to do the physical examinations ourselves?"
Li Du said strangely: "This physical examination activity was not organized by the hospital?"
Mesa's mother smiled and said, "No, no, this is organized by Sophie and the others themselves. It is twice a year. Use the rest time to do the checkups, and God bless the good people."
Hans cares about: “Isn’t the money enough?”
Mesa's mother smiled strongly and optimistically: "I always want to help a few more people if I have more money."
Li Du was about to take out her wallet, but a nurse came to call Mesa's mother and told her to prepare the things.
Sophie and others conducted a comprehensive physical examination. The welfare home was very busy. Li Du and Hans couldn't help but leave. Staying here was a mess for others.
On Monday, Hans called Li Du and asked him to come over and prepare for the sale of ceramic animals.
Hannah happened to rest and drove a BMW Z4 to pick him up, allowing him to experience the feeling of flying in the city.
After getting off the car, Li Du said helplessly: "I regret buying this car for you. Hannah, you drive too fast, be careful of danger!"
Hannah said excitedly: "Please, Lee, I haven't been speeding and completely abide by traffic rules. How can it be dangerous at this speed? You're too conservative."
Li Du shrugged, perhaps, he was certainly conservative compared to Hans and Hannah.
After seeing him, Hans said, "Remember the Carter you gave him a ceramic image? He contacted our customers, Phoenix Ceramics, who are interested in buying these goods."
Li Du said in surprise: "It's so fast. I thought it would take several months to sell these things on ebay or Amazon."
This is the power of connections. He gave Carter a ceramic triceratops. Carter reciprocates and helped them contact sales channels.
Like the previous sales method, the Phoenix Ceramics Museum sent a manager and two ceramic experts to check the authenticity of the ceramics.
At ten o'clock, the two sides met. The manager of the pottery hall was named Lucipain, the old one among the two experts was named Cory Kuraen, and the young one was named Nick.
After seeing fifty-four ceramic toys, Cory and Nick first looked at each with a magnifying glass.
About half an hour later, Corey came over and nodded, "All of them are real people."
"Can you be sure?" Peiwen asked.
Cory picked up a pottery stegosaurus and said, "No problem, you see, this is a tire craft, and Cohen likes hand-made creations using tire technology, which he is good at using this technology to simulate petrochemical processes."
Li Du asked curiously: "How did you see it?"
Corey smiled and said, "It takes some experience, and a rough look, ignore the beautiful glaze on their surface. These objects are covered under the material, which can capture their shapes and textures. In turn, these materials will preserve what it covers, just like rocks."
Li Du nodded and said, "What do you mean is that although these pottery artworks are made of modern plastic toys, in fact, he used the technique of imitating fossils?"
Corey looked at him in surprise and said, "You are right. This is what I will say next. Young man, do you understand this craft?"
"No, no, no, I don't understand, I just speculate from your words."
Corey was even more surprised: "Then you are really talented in this regard. Are you interested in learning from us about the production and identification of ceramics?"
