Chapter 782: The Countess' Mirror
On the second day, Lu Ning and Lan Fei also took a private plane back to China. Along the way, Lan Fei was admiring the mirror that Gusingsdorf gave. Lan Fei had already contacted his elders. The answer he got was that he was doing business with Gussingsdorf, and the two sides did maintain a relatively close relationship.
Of course, if it was just because of his relationship with the elders of the Lanfei family, Gusingsdorf would not have given such an expensive gift. At most, it was just for the sake of it. This time, it was Lu Ning's face. , but also with a hint of apology. You must know Lu Ning's current identity and how much face he has. Perhaps, Lu Ning himself may not have a deep understanding.
"Oh, I just checked the information on the computer. Do you know who the original owner of this mirror was?" Lan Fei said to Lu Ning with a look of surprise.
"Huh? You'll never tell me that it's the comb used by Tsar Catherine. It's a cultural relic, but if it's used by this person, I'd still advise you to keep it on the shelf. This person's lover is too A little more." Lu Ning made a joke.
"I hate it, of course it's not Ekaterina. If it was, it wouldn't be in Gusingsdorf's hands. It must be exhibited in a museum." Lan Fei gave Lu Ning a stern look, and compared himself to Ekaterina, it's just looking for a fight.
"Oh, then tell me, it's the mirror of that noble lady."
"Tadiana, this is the name I found behind the mirror. I just checked the name. In 1730, the countess of Tsarist Russia, and later, in the time of Catherine, was promoted to duke." Lanfi said made his own discovery.
"Huh, is it really related to Tsar Ekaterina?" Lu Ning was also taken aback. It was just a joke at first, but I didn't expect that it was really related to Tsar Ekaterina.
"Well, it doesn't really matter, it just happened to belong to that era. You know, when Catherine took power, she was almost 70 years old. However, his son participated in the palace coup, so he won The title of Duke." Lan Fei said.
"That's amazing. This thing is almost 300 years old. I didn't expect that Gusingsdorf is really generous. If this thing is really put up for auction, the price will definitely exceed 4 million US dollars. After all, these gems It's worth a fortune.”
"Well, I think it's better to find a chance to return this thing."
"What? Don't like it?" Lu Ning looked at Lan Fei's reaction, clearly seeing a trace of reluctance in Lan Fei's eyes.
"Just because it's too precious, I really can't accept it, Lu Ning, you know, this will become a favor, it's not as simple as a gift." Even in the face of temptation, Lan Fei was able to maintain her clarity. This has been very difficult.
"Okay, Lan Fei, just keep it. I'll transfer money to Gussingsdorf in a while. I'll give you this stuff." Lu Ning knew that Lan Fei liked it. In this case, it is better to pay for it yourself and repay this favor.
"This...?" Lan Fei was still a little hesitant.
"What? I gave it to you, did you hesitate?" Lu Ning pretended to be unhappy.
"Of course not." Lan Fei quickly denied it, and finally, under Lu Ning's eyes, she put the mirror and the box into her bag, and Lu Ning smiled again.
After Lan Fei took the things, Lu Ning did not hesitate. In front of Lan Fei, he sent the money to Gusinsdorf. 5 minutes after the payment, Lu Ning had already received Gusins. Dove's phone.
"Mr. Lu, what are you?" Gusingsdorf received Lu Ning's remittance and understood what Lu Ning meant, but he still had to make a phone call.
"Mr Gussingsdorf,
The mirror is very beautiful. Lan Fei likes it. Thank you for choosing such a good gift. I have borrowed it all. "
"Mr. Lu, you should know that this is a bit of my intention as an elder." Gusingsdorf is still fighting for it.
"I got it in my heart, and Lan Fei also likes the mirror, but Lan Fei won't accept anything from others except my hand."
"Uh, okay, but Mr. Lu, I bought this mirror from the auction for 3 million the year before. In this case, I can't make any money from you. I'll refund the extra money in a while. Give you."
The year before last coincided with the outbreak of the financial crisis, and many families could no longer survive. Therefore, last year's auction really produced a batch of good things, and the prices of these things were much lower than usual.
Some collectors took advantage of this opportunity and made a lot of money. The fine products they took back were all cheap and high-quality. The same is true for this mirror. However, since Gusingsdorf said so, Lu Ning would not. He objected and agreed with a smile. After that, he exchanged a few words with Gusingsdorf before hanging up the phone.
"It's done." Lu Ning smiled at Lan Fei, and 10 minutes later, he received a refund from Gussingsdorf, which was exactly $1 million. Speaking of which, Gussingsdorf was at a loss. Yes, but that's Gusingsdorf's cleverness.
At this moment, in a villa in the outskirts of Moscow, Gusingsdorf was drinking a glass of vodka, looking out the window, and after a while, he shook his head. These two are really not simple. .
It was another 8-hour long-distance flight. Lu Ning's Boeing 770-300 plane landed safely at Pudong International Airport. When he got off the plane, he instantly felt a lot warmer. Well, although the magic capital is also in winter at this time, but Compared to the weather in Moscow, it is too warm.
After leaving the customs, the time also came to 5 pm, and Hongqi CA72 was already waiting at the door. Lan Fei was a little concerned about his restaurant, so the two decided unanimously that they would go back to Lan Ting private kitchen to solve the dinner, anyway, there was only one It's about an hour away, and it's just right to go back.
When I returned to Lanting Private Kitchen, it was already dark. Well, during the time when Lan Fei was no longer, everything was normal. Well, it can be concluded that Lan Fei spends time here every day, which is all superfluous. , Of course, no one will say this.
Lu Ning and Lan Fei asked for four dishes and one soup. Well, forget the greasy wine, and talk about it. After all, when they were in Moscow, they were mainly fried. After eating too much, it was really hard to digest.
At night, of course, I stayed at Lan Fei's villa. The hotel room was pushed away by Lu Ning long ago. Of course, Lan Fei used to sleep in a six-foot bed. You know, how high Lu Ning's requirements for sleep are.
The price of this bed and mattress alone is not less than 500,000 RMB.
