Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 281 Going to the Hospital
"Is it a luxury used by the royal family and nobles?" Hearing what Liang En said, Fan Meng immediately widened his eyes, "That means this thing is very valuable, right?"

"It may not be as valuable as you think, because this thing will obviously not be manufactured for more than ten years." Liang En shook his head and said. "Because from the late 19th and early 20th century, there were gradually cheaper versions of this stuff."

After finishing speaking, Liang En, after checking the overall situation of the house, pulled a metal relief on the side of the house, then stretched his fingers into a crack coming out of the side and gently pulled it out.

Following Liang En's operation, the entire front wall of the room was opened like a refrigerator door, and then the luxuriously decorated small rooms inside were revealed, which looked like the patterns shown in the real house's section drawing.

After going forward to check carefully, Liang En quickly found the place where the previous pocket oil painting should be hung and hung the small oil painting just now, then took a step back to look at it and nodded.

"How did you know that this is a cheap version?" Joan of Arc, who also watched closely for a long time, asked a little puzzled. "I think this thing is very exquisitely made, and it doesn't look like a cheap item."

"From the material." Liang En said, pointing to one of the small rooms, "For example, the leather that wraps the chair is made of cowhide, which is much rougher than that made of lambskin."

"For another example, the book on the table next to it does have text, but you will find that the text is printed, not handwritten, and the lace on the side of the table is also machine-made, not man-made. Braided."

Obviously, the dollhouse is fine as an exquisite handmade product, but a lot of details were saved in order to control the cost.

"That is to say, this item is not worth much?" After hearing Liang En's explanation, Fan Meng showed a look of regret. After all, the historical value of this item is not high, so if it can't be exchanged for too much money, then That's a pity.

"No, although this thing is not as precious as the dollhouses specially made by senior craftsmen for the top rich and royal nobles, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can obtain." Liang En shook his head.

"This should be a toy produced by some small companies that provide luxury goods for the children of the next-level rich, top stars or top managers. So there may be a little problem with the details, but it is definitely not cheap goods."

"So a room like this is very complete. At least 10% of new dollhouses can sell for about $20, because I remember a similar new dollhouse can sell for $[-]."

The value of many items will form a U-shaped curve with the passage of time. The price will be relatively high when it is new or has a certain age, but the price will continue to drop during the process of changing from new to second-hand.

This is especially true for this kind of luxury for the rich. Even if this doll house is at least [-]% new, or even [-]% new, the price will definitely be cut in half because it is a second-hand product.

Of course, this 10 refers to the price that will be sold directly to the buyer when a buyer is found. If it is sold to a store, the price will be halved again. After all, the consumer group for this kind of thing is too small.

"It's a pity that Uncle Nell was injured. Otherwise, if this item was sold to him, it should have sold for [-] to [-] yuan." Pierce said with some regret at this time.

Considering that it was inconvenient to carry this thing around, Liang En and the others simply paid $150 to rent this warehouse for half a month.

After dealing with all the things, it was around 12 noon, so they left the storage company and went to the city to have lunch.I have to say that as a famous tourist city, the local area is very good in terms of catering.

At least in this place, you can eat food from all over the world. For example, Liang En and the others ate Middle Eastern-style barbecue and hand-picked rice at noon. There is almost no difference in what you eat in the restaurant.

Just as they were finishing their meal, Pierce's phone rang, so he walked out of the restaurant to answer the phone, and when he came back, Liang En saw a smile on his face.

"Good news, Uncle Nell and his clerk are out of danger." Pierce said, waving his mobile phone. "We can visit him in the hospital this afternoon."

"I remember that he seems to have been shot in the stomach. If you go to see him just after the operation, what's the problem?" Liang En asked after thinking about the figure whose abdomen was full of blood and was carried into the ambulance.

"Luckily, Uncle Nell's shot didn't hit any vital organs, so we just need to sew up the wound and transfuse some blood." Pierce said with a smile.

"However, his clerk had a lung wound, so it is estimated that he will have to rest for a long time. Fortunately, Uncle Nell will buy a set of medical insurance for those who are employed, so it will not cause him financial pressure."

The cost of medical treatment in the United States can be said to be indescribable. If you do not buy any insurance, it is not uncommon for a small cold to cost thousands of dollars.

And if you buy some commercial insurance, doctors will seldom prescribe such expensive medicines when prescribing medicines and choosing treatment options, and most of the medical expenses can also be reimbursed through insurance.

So they came to the hospital soon after eating, and entered the ward to visit Uncle Nell with the doctor's permission.

But when they came to the door of the ward along the corridor, they were surprised to find two burly men in jeans and T-shirts sitting on the chairs at the door of the ward.

Seeing Liang En and the others wanting to enter, the two stopped them, and then one went in to inquire.Soon, the door opened, and the previous man waved them in.

"Thank you for saving my son. If it wasn't for you, my son's life would definitely be in danger today." When Liang En and the others entered the door, an old lady in traditional Indian clothes stood up and thanked them.

"It's nothing, this is what we should do." Pierce said with a smile, "Actually, in this situation, everyone will help as long as they can."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the old lady and the strong man who just came in retreated together, and then Pierce went to the chair next to the bed of the uncle on the bed, sat down and started chatting.

According to Uncle Nell, his shooting was related to something he had acquired at auction.

Three days ago, Uncle Nell participated in an auction to auction a pipe belonging to his mother's tribe, and he encountered a group of people competing with him.

At the beginning, the group of people raised the price very aggressively, as if they were determined to win.But when the price broke through $7, the group stopped bidding.

Since many people would set an upper limit after meeting the lot, and if the upper limit was exceeded, they would stop bidding, so this Uncle Nell didn't take this matter to heart.

But what I didn't expect was that the person who appeared at the auction brought two other people he didn't know to the store early this morning, and then threatened them to open the safe and snatch the pipe.
