Instructing her daughter to practice throwing knives, the police were frightened and asked to file

The most important thing is that the girl was wearing a white plum blossom cheongsam at this time. She exuded an intellectual and infectious beauty, as if she was a character walking out of a book, magnificent and beautiful.

"What are you looking at? Wake up, you soldiers. Stop dreaming. There's no hope." Seeing his teammates with wide eyes, He Xuxiao waved his hands in front of their eyes and teased.

"Brother Chenguang." At this time, the girl stood up and walked over with a smile.

"Hey, Brother Chen Guang." The Red Cell team members beside him immediately started to make a noise. Men are sometimes so childish, and they don't look like special forces. "Stop it, this is An Ran, her father is Uncle An, the owner of this store, and he is a friend of my father." He Xuxiao explained.

"Hello, everyone, welcome." An Ran greeted with a smile.

"An Ran, these are all my comrades-in-arms. Your father asked us to come here. The wood sculpture of the meteor has been sold, right?" He Xuxiao said.

"Yes, may I ask which one is Mr. Meteor?" Hearing this, An Ran seemed a little nervous and expectant.

"Yes, I am Meteor." Wang Yanbing rushed to say.

"It's me." The pilot pushed Wang Yanbing aside and said.

"Nonsense! Don't you look at yourself? How can you be a shooting star?" Xu Tianlong said seriously, but soon he showed a playful smile: "Actually, I am, haha."

"Are you Mr. Meteor?" An Ran was very smart. Although she was a little embarrassed, she still looked at Qin Tian and asked in a low voice.

"I am Meteor." Qin Tian was a little surprised. He didn't expect the other party to recognize him at a glance. He did not deny it and nodded with a smile.

"Oh, how boring! How could he be recognized at the first sight?" Wang Yanbing and the pilot lamented.

"You guys? Forget about it. You're nowhere near the temperament of a meteor." He Xuxiao smiled unceremoniously and patted a few people on the head: "Look at all you soldiers. Which one of you has a bit of artist's temperament?"

"Mr. Liuxing, I really like your work." An Ran looked at Qin Tian and said with some admiration: "Your work looks like it was done in one go, as if it was created naturally."

"What is most amazing is that the lines of your wood carvings are so smooth that you can't see any traces of splicing or turning. It's as if they were carved out with one knife from beginning to end. I have rarely seen such perfect wood carvings."

"In addition, I feel that there is a unique temperament and momentum in your wood carvings, Mr. Liuxing. In short, it is different from others..."

An Ran said a lot of things with a little excitement. She felt a little embarrassed as she spoke: "I didn't know where this temperament came from before, but now I understand when I see Mr. Liuxing. This is your temperament, Mr. Liuxing..."

This was why she recognized Qin Tian at first sight, because she saw a temperament in Qin Tian's wood carvings that matched his style, cold, confident, aloof, and full of mystery.

"Miss An Ran, thank you for the compliment." Qin Tian said with a smile, but he had to admit that he felt very comfortable hearing such a beautiful girl praising his wood carving.

"Mr. Meteor, you can just call me An Ran." An Ran said quickly, feeling a little flattered.

"Then Miss An Ran, you can just call me Meteor." Qin Tian also smiled.

"Okay, Mr. Meteor."

"Okay, Miss Anran."

……

"Hey, hey, hey, you really treat us as air?" The two were talking to themselves, and the Red Cell team members who were left aside shouted in dissatisfaction, with a hint of jealousy. How could such a beautiful girl fall for Meteor?
"Oh, sorry, everyone, please come in and sit down." An Ran suddenly woke up from her dream and said hurriedly in embarrassment.

Everyone sat down and Anran served tea.

The table itself is a wood carving, which looks like the welcoming pine tree of Huangshan Mountain. The tea set is also very exquisite, with small pottery pots and white porcelain glazed tea cups produced in Yixing. The diameter of this kind of tea cup is only the size of a silver dollar, like a small wine glass, very delicate. After An Ran brewed the tea, she picked up the teapot and made circular motions on the three porcelain cups arranged in a triangular shape. This is called "Guan Gong patrolling the city", filling each small cup in turn, and then you can hold up the fragrant small cup and taste it slowly. Because there are six people in total, she did it twice.

Her movements are classical and elegant, she is beautiful and her tea is delicious, it is really pleasing to the eye.

"Kung Fu tea?" Qin Tian took a sip from the teacup and felt the fragrance of tea blossom in his mouth. The layered sweetness penetrated into his taste buds, making him feel as if he was savoring life. He couldn't help but praise: "Good Kung Fu, the cooking tastes the best of Southeast Asia, and the best is the Kung Fu tea and soup."

"It tastes good." The other members of the Red Cell Team were much simpler and more direct.

Tea tasting is finished.

"By the way, Sister An Ran, how much did the wood carvings sold for at Liuxing's auction this time?" Everyone asked the question they were most concerned about. They all had a wood carving given by Qin Tian, ​​and they also wanted to know how much it was worth.

When his teammates asked about the price of the wood carving, Qin Tian immediately became interested. It was not that he was short of money. His parents worked for the country and left him a savings. Although it was not much, it was still several million. As long as he did not squander it, it was enough for daily expenses. After all, the country had allocated him a car and a house.

However, he was also very curious about the value of the wood carvings he carved himself.

"How about you guys guess?" An Ran smiled mysteriously and said playfully when everyone asked.

"I heard from Chen Guang that this kind of wood carving costs more than 10,000 yuan each." Wang Yanbing spoke first, "I like this wood carving of Meteor Carving from the bottom of my heart. In my opinion, it should cost at least 18,800 yuan. It's for good luck, haha!"

"I think 20,000!" the pilot said immediately, "Our team leader will do it, so the quality is absolutely guaranteed!"

"Don't guess blindly, it can't be that expensive. In my opinion, five thousand dollars is about right..." Xu Tianlong said with a smile, but after a pause, he added, "Of course, I'm talking about US dollars!" "Well, how much is five thousand US dollars in our currency?" Li Erniu started to calculate with his fingers, turned around and asked for help, "Chen Guang, you are a top student, tell me quickly."

"The exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB is about 1:6.7, which means that 1 U.S. dollar is equivalent to 6 RMB. Five thousand U.S. dollars... is about 7 to ." He Xuxiao gave the answer after some mental calculation.

"More than 30,000? Just a piece of wood is worth more than 30,000. It's too expensive. How many pigs do you have to raise to make so much money? This wood carving of mine is also a meteor carving. I will sell it to anyone who offers 30,000." Li Erniu said loudly with a look of surprise on his face.

"Mr. Buffalo, you have to think it over carefully. Do you really want to sell the wood carving for 30,000 yuan? If you are sure you want to sell it, our Android Woodcarving Shop will be happy to buy it." An Ran responded with a smile, "Because Mr. Meteor's wood carving is worth much more than that."

"What? Much more than 30,000 yuan?" Li Erniu's eyes widened. "It's just a piece of wood the size of a palm?"

"So valuable?" Others were also shocked. Even Qin Tian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the three wood carvings could be auctioned for more than 30,000 each, which added up to nearly 100,000. 100,000 yuan is something that many working-class people can't earn in a year, but he earned it in less than half a day.

"Mr. Liuxing's three works, 'Three-Headed Wolf' was sold for 88,800 yuan, 'The Flutist' was sold for 100,000 yuan, and the most expensive one was 'The Beauty by the Water', which a collector bought for 180,000 yuan." An Ran continued, "In other words, the total sales were 368,800 yuan. The cheapest one was sold for more than 80,000 yuan. Mr. Shuiniu, are you still planning to sell the wood carvings for 30,000 yuan?"

"What? The cheapest one costs more than 80,000?" Li Erniu was so surprised that he almost fell off his chair. He waved his hands quickly and said, "Then I won't sell it. I won't sell it. I have to take it home and keep it well."

"Wow, I'm going to get rich." The pilot and the others were surprised and happy, and jumped up excitedly. "Um, Meteor, you're not going to ask us to take the wood carving back, are you?"

"How could that be? If you still want them, I can give you a few more." Qin Tian was surprised when he heard this, and then he said with a smile. He never thought that these wood carvings of his could be sold for more than 300,000 yuan.

You know, these are just his practice works. Moreover, now that he has practiced the flying knife refining technique, his carving skills will definitely be improved. If he carves a large work carefully, it may be sold for hundreds of thousands or even millions. From this point of view, getting rich by wood carving is not a fantasy.

At first, everyone was skeptical, thinking An Ran was joking. But when Android came back and confirmed the authenticity of the news and personally transferred the money to Qin Tian's bank card, everyone believed it.

"You've earned more than 300,000 in one go, Meteor, you're a rich man now!" the pilot shouted excitedly.

"Yes, we made such a big profit, Liuxing, you have to treat us to a big dinner tonight." Wang Yanbing also joined in the fun.

"What a feast! What a feast!" He Xuxiao and Xu Tianlong also echoed.

"He's not a rich man at all. He only has a few hundred thousand, not even enough for a down payment on a house." Qin Tian responded with a smile, and then looked at the text message on his mobile phone: 6232 yuan has been deposited into your bank card with the last digit . The original balance was yuan, and part of it was deducted as consignment fee.

He put his phone away and said with a smile, "But it's definitely no problem to treat everyone to a meal. Let's go, let's eat the best tonight! Don't save money for me. I'll be angry with anyone who saves money!"

"Okay, let's go for a big dinner!" All the team members were excited.

"Mr. Meteor, if you have any good works next time, please bring them to us. The collector who bought your 'Beauty by the Water' said that he is looking forward to your new works and wants to meet you." Android said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you Uncle An." Qin Tian responded. But he knew in his heart that even if his wood carvings were valuable, he couldn't sell them in large quantities. Scarcity makes things valuable. If there are more of his works on the market, the price will naturally drop. Nowadays, everyone is chasing after them, but it's rare to see such exquisite works that can be carved with just one knife. He decided to only produce fine works in the future, and only sell fine works, so that the price of wood carvings can be maintained, or even steadily increased.

The group was full of joy and prepared to go out. When they reached the door, Qin Tian suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "How about, An Ran, you come with us."

"This..." An Ran looked at Qin Tian, ​​then looked at his father Android with anticipation.

"Haha, I'm an old man and I won't join you young people in the fun. An Ran, if you are free, go out and play with Chen Guang and the others." Android said with a smile. Although he didn't know the specific identities of Qin Tian and the others, he knew that He Xuxiao was the grandson of the military district chief, and the people he brought were naturally trustworthy. Besides, seeing that Qin Tian and the others were all extraordinary, and Qin Tian was a young woodcarving master, he was naturally happy to let his daughter interact with them more.

Soon, the group arrived at the largest and most upscale restaurant in Jiang City, the White Fox Restaurant. This restaurant is located on the top floor of a well-known five-star hotel. It is said to be the only Michelin three-star restaurant in Jiang City, so the cost is naturally high.

"This is a five-star hotel, so luxurious... How much electricity is wasted in a day with these lights." Li Erniu had never been to such a high-end hotel before, and he couldn't help but sigh as soon as he entered the door.

"You look so ignorant. We are here to enjoy a feast, not to visit a hotel." The pilot joked, "You guys can order expensive food and experience the feeling of being rich."

"Don't mess around. Meteor's money didn't just fall from the sky..." Xu Tianlong said this, but suddenly changed the subject, "But everyone, eat as much as you want. It's okay to spend tens of thousands of dollars."

"Order whatever you want and eat as much as you want, '340s', if you can, spend all the money you earn today." Qin Tian smiled cheerfully. He never cared much about money. How much could he spend? If he really had no money, he could just carve a few more wood sculptures.

"Gentlemen, do you have a reservation?" As soon as we stepped into the restaurant, the waiter came forward and greeted us warmly.

When they walked into the restaurant, they found that there were not many customers. After all, such a high-cost restaurant does not rely on customer flow to win.

"Arrange a large private room for us." Qin Tian said.

"This way, please." The waiter led the way.

The overall layout of the White Fox Restaurant exudes an ethereal charm. As soon as you step in, you can feel the tranquility that comes to your face, and the temperature is just right. The roses or calla lilies placed on each table make the air filled with elegant fragrance, and people's mood naturally relaxes.

"I wonder if there really is a white fox in this White Fox Restaurant? The most beautiful fairy in the legend is the fox spirit transformed from a white fox." After everyone sat down, they joked and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

It is worth mentioning that, whether intentionally or by coincidence, An Ran happened to sit next to Qin Tian. The other members of the Red Cell could see clearly that she seemed to have shown a strong interest in the young master sculptor.

Soon, a table full of sumptuous dishes was placed on the table.

"Liuxing, can I know your real name? You're not Liu Xing, are you?" After sitting down for a while, An Ran looked at Qin Tian with a smile and asked softly. (End of this chapter)
