"Roy Akaf." Patton said nonchalantly.
"Huh?" Xiao Peng puzzled.
Barton explained: "This song was sung by Roy Akaf. At the time, Roy Akaf was known as the king of country music. One thing can explain Roy Akaf's influence at the time. : During World War II, the soldiers of the Japanese nation used to shout to the soldiers of the Star-Tangled Kingdom, "Die Roosevelt! Dead Barbie! Dead Roy Akaf!"
Xiao Peng nodded: "Don't say it, listening to music with a gramophone really feels very good, very soft."
As a result, as soon as Xiao Peng finished speaking, he heard someone shout out in a hysterical voice from the record, it was in Russian. The guy who sold the gramophone looked embarrassed, Xiao Peng's Russian, which he could not speak very well, was inverted. I understand the meaning inside.
Barton asked curiously, "What happened to that just now? What was that on the record?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "That's in Russian, meaning'what? Do you think you will hear the latest music? Fack squid, you Soviet-Vietese offal'. Back then, Soviet underground bone records were often recorded. Here are some angry words of angry Soviet youth."
The young man was very interested when he heard Xiao Peng's words: "What? Do you understand Russian?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "It's still not easy to say, your Russian pronunciation is too difficult. But the listening is still not a big problem. This phonograph is a bit interesting, how much is it?"
The young man held out a finger: "One thousand dollars!"
Xiao Peng didn't even think about it. He turned his finger back, but it was the middle finger: "Damn, why don't you grab it!"
The young man was also not annoyed, pointing to the gramophone and said, "I am an antique gramophone from Victor. This is the best gramophone brand of that era. You can see that it has been more than half a century and it can still be used. Isn't it worth a thousand dollars?"
Xiao Peng said speechlessly: "Brother, you haven't seen money, have you? Victor's phonographs were good in those days, but he has many varieties and sells many phonographs. Almost all phonographs on this market are of this brand. Yes, they sell one hundred dollars, you sell one thousand dollars? What about cheating?"
The young man said: "You look at it, there are still words and patterns painted on it..."
Xiao Peng pointed to the shell of the gramophone and said, "I don't know Russian. What is written on it? "Put the red flag of the Soviets on the heart of capital-ownership-righteousness"? Well, it is indeed inserted in capital now. The heart of doctrine is on, and your family has all gone to the Stars and Stripes! Have you planted the flag? Are you not selling second-hand goods here!"
"Hey, my yellow-skinned brother, I not only sell phonographs here, but also give you so many records. Those are all memories of that era and part of history. When you buy my phonograph, you have witnessed history... ..." the young man continued.
Xiao Peng shook his head desperately after hearing this: "You said these'skull records'? These are not regular records. What's the value of the X-ray discs burned by themselves? Tsk tsk, the owner of this piece has a broken hand bone, is this?"
These ‘skull records’ are all made from scrap X-rays, so it’s not surprising that there is a mess on them. The record in Xiao Peng's hands is obviously an X-ray of a patient with a broken hand bone.
The young man made a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, tell me how much."
"Me? I don't want it anymore!" When Xiao Peng said this, he took the gramophone in his hand, but he heard a crash inside, as if something fell. "Damn, there are still parts lost in it? Can I just use it!"
The blond youth rolled his eyes: "You broke this! You have to buy it!"
"Damn, are you ruining me?" Xiao Peng stared at the young Russian man. "This is so bad for you!"
The blond young man shrugged: "I'm fine, you see that you have dropped parts with the touch. It must be your problem."
Button said, "Hey, kid, do you dare to ruin people in this market?"
Button also didn't wear a cycling uniform. He looked like an ordinary peasant uncle. The young man glanced at him: "How do you talk? What do you mean? I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense, just look at you. Those with old arms and legs are not good if they fall."
Button laughed angrily. Which one of the motorcycle players is not tempered? Button just wanted to smash the young Russian man, but he heard the roar of the engine. Looking back, a few people came over on a heavy plane: "Barton, why are you here? There are a lot of people here, looking for you everywhere. ."
Barton raised the watering can in his hand and said: "You didn't come just now. I bought two watering cans. Wait for me first, and I will clean up this wicked kid."
"Original?" When the several knights heard this, they turned their heads and stared at the young Russians. Only then did the young Russians realize that they seemed to be offending people. They raised their hands and said, "Calm! Calm! I’m not a bad person. I don’t understand the market price of this thing. It’s a bit expensive and the price can be cheaper, but it is true that the parts of this thing fall after he took it, so he has to buy it, and you guys too. I see, no matter what parts are dropped, it doesn't affect its use, right?"
"You even said that I broke it? You sell such a ragged thing for a thousand dollars, and the contents are still smashing. What is blackmail?" Xiao Peng said with air.
The Russian youth said: "One hundred meters of gold! I mean one hundred meters of gold! I also gave away these records. Anyway, these old skull records are worth a bit." The Russian youth asked for a thousand dollars at first, just looking at Xiao Peng is a Chinese. In the Stars and Stripes, the Chinese are not of Chinese descent. There may be people of Chinese descent who have not lived well, but the Chinese people who come here are obviously "walking wallets", almost all of them are not bad for money. .
After listening to Xiao Peng, he thought about it. This Russian youth was right. That stack of skull records was a bit interesting. They were many old songs from the 1940s and 1960s. They were of commemorative value, plus motorcycles. The buyers were all here, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, took out a "Franklin" and threw it to the young man, holding the phonograph and leaving.
It doesn't matter what parts he dropped, it just works. Isn't it good to take it back as a decoration? Thinking of this, Xiao Peng regretted it again, because this phonograph does not have a loudspeaker. If it is to be used as a display in the future, it will be better to use a loudspeaker.
Xiao Peng had also made up his mind. From now on, he must buy a large-speaker phonograph to put it at home, and match it with the classic furniture at home. . . . . .
The two of them rode motorcycles and followed the knights to a clearing in the back. The people came beyond Xiao Peng's imagination. At least thirty or forty people came? Isn't it just buying a motorcycle, is it so lively?
Barton explained to Xiao Peng: "Uh, the style of motorcycle riders is to act together. It seems that there are so many people. In fact, there should be only five or six buyers. Anyway, if you are idle, you should come out together to cruise. By the way Look at this car. Motorcyclists like motorcycles, don't they?"
Xiao Peng looked disappointed: "Damn, I thought there were three or four people bidding for my motorcycle, then I would definitely post it!"
Barton laughed: "You are a fan of money. If five or six people come to bid, your motorcycle should be able to sell for a good price."
Seeing the two of Xiao Peng riding over, someone greeted Barton directly: "Hey! Barton, you called us but you came so late. When you come back, you will have a beer!"
Button smiled and said, "Hey, Charles, what are you kidding? Where am I late? We made an appointment at ten o'clock, and it is not yet. I really can’t figure out how can you be so positive? I thought you could I was habitually late. I didn't expect to come so early today. This surprised me."
Charles smiled and did not speak, but walked up to the warchief and blew a whistle: "16 models of the best warchief, Barton, are you really willing to sell this car? I said, there is nothing wrong with this car, right? Or else you Why are you willing to sell him?"
Button shrugged: "It's really not my car, it's my friend's. I use my personality to guarantee that this car is absolutely fine. Believe me, this is really a good car."
Xiao Peng was even more straightforward and threw the car key directly to Charles: "Do you know if the car is good after a round of rides? Take a good round and see how it feels."
Charles took the key and held out his thumb at Xiao Peng: "I like to deal with a brave kid like you." After speaking, he started the warchief and went straight to sneak around. After returning, he stood aside and joined a few friends together.
Xiao Peng didn't say a word: "If you want to buy this car, please try it." There were five or six people who rode and tried, the number was about the same as Barton guessed. After testing the car, like Charles, he lowered his head and discussed with his friends.
Button coughed dryly: "Everyone has seen the car, and there must be more than one person who wants to buy it. Then the old rules, the higher the price. Everyone sees, this car hasn't traveled far at all. It is almost the same as a new car, and it is still best equipped Version. The bid you want."
"Ten thousand!" Charles quoted directly.
"Hey, Charles, you're more active. It's ten thousand, is there anything higher than this price?" Barton asked. "This is the Great Chief with the top 16 models. It costs at least US$23,000 to buy a new one. This car has all the original parts, no different from the new car!"
Only then did Xiao Peng know that motorcycles are also divided into low-end and top-end versions, and the price difference is not small. Own this car still belongs to the chieftain with the top luxury version.
"Charles, you are too stingy, so I will pay twelve thousand." A bald man wearing a motorcycle jacket shouted.
Let the bald man shout, everyone's enthusiasm for raising prices also increased. Several people took turns bidding, and in the end Charles really won. Seventeen thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars. The price is like this.
Despite the fierce bidding, everyone was very cautious. Later, it was fifty dollars and fifty dollars. After all, the economy of the Star-Stripe Nation is currently in a recession. Can you save a little?
Xiao Peng is very satisfied with the price. No matter how new this car is, it is also a second-hand car. This is not an antique car. The price of a new car will only depreciate and will not increase. This is a price that both buyers and sellers are satisfied with.
The cash that Charles gave to Xiao Peng, he took out two rolls of US dollars from his pocket and gave it to Xiao Peng. What makes Xiao Peng the most uncomfortable in Stars and Stripes is this cash. In China, you can travel the country with a mobile phone, but here, you can’t do without cash. Like Charles, you carry tens of thousands of cash with you. Buying motorcycles, in fact, this phenomenon is very common in the Stars and Stripes. They all receive food coupons with benefits. If the bank deposits more than two thousand meters of gold, they will not have the benefits. How dare they save?
When we watch American movies, the main reason we use cash for everything is also because of this.
Xiao Peng confirmed the amount and gave the car keys and the storage auction certificate to Charles. Like this warchief, there is no proof of identity. Although these motorcycle riders have their own way to wash the car white, the storage and auction certificate has saved him a lot of things.
Charles took a look at the warehouse auction certificate and was a little dumbfounded: "Hey, did you buy this car from the warehouse?"
Xiao Peng nodded: "Yes. At that time, I saw a warehouse auction, so I went curiously to join in the fun, but I found this thing from the warehouse."
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, the group whistled together: "Damn, doesn't God love us?" Charles exaggerated. "Hey, anyway, it's not easy for us to get together. Let's take a walk together?"
Button nodded when he heard: "It's been a long time since we cruised together. Why don't we go around on Route 66? If you go together, I will inform the rest of the Bear Hunter."
Charles looked at the others: "What do you think? If we are together, I will organize our ‘Manic Machine’ people. I can just try this new car."
"Okay, let's organize it too. See you in Williams in an hour!" Several people agreed. Take Route 66 and the nearest intersection is Williams.
Xiao Peng asked Button: "Can I cruise with you? It just so happens that we should leave Williams and move on."
Barton said: "Of course it can, even if it is to see you off."
Charles laughed and said, "Hey, Xiao, it’s not that we dislike you, but we Arizona Riders cruise. We never carry a man in the back seat of a motorcycle. Your car is now mine. I suggest you get a motorcycle first. Right."
Xiao Peng smiled: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, motorcycles, I also have a Harley-Davidson CVO, should it be enough to cruise with you?"
"Damn it! Have the rich people all over the world go to China?" After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Charles scolded angrily. "God really doesn't love the Stars and Stripes anymore..."
