MTL - Treasure Hunt Tycoon-Chapter 1610 Small brick

Looking at the painting and smiling Li Du, Sandler's hearts sank.

They now realized that they had fallen into the trap.

South Americans also had a fluke mind, asking, "How much is this painting?"

Li Du raised a forefinger, still smiling with a kind smile on his face.

The South American asked expectantly, "Ten thousand yuan?"

Li Du shook his head.

Sandler's face gloomed: "Do you really want to buy 100,000 for a painting?"

Li Du continued to shake his head and said: "It seems that your vision is limited by your imagination. I mean, one hundred million dollars!"

The three took a breath, and almost shouted in unison: "WTF ?! Are you crazy?"

Li Du said seriously: "Of course I'm not crazy, but your vision has limited your imagination. As far as I know, you haven't even entered the million clubs, have you? If I were you, I wouldn't be in a hurry Come out and take risks, but first think of ways to raise your horizons. "

Sandler stubbornly said, "Less here is crooked, as if you knew everything."

Li Dudao: "I know more than you, I'm not convinced? Okay, don't say this picture, say these things, what is this?"

Talking, he raised a small fuchsia brick in front of him.

The three Sandlers wanted to prove that their vision was good enough, but no matter how they looked, they couldn't see what these bricks looked like.

Batlon, who was scorned, was unwilling to fail, let alone fail in the face of a rival like Li Du. He decided to take a gamble and coughed: "This is a gem, no, it should be said that they are naturally occurring. Spar, a type of feldspar. "

Li Du looked at him in surprise and said, "How do you know?"

His expression made Barthon happy, but he guessed it blindly. He couldn't tell the specific information, so he said mysteriously, "I know ..."

"You know a hammer." Li Du didn't give him the chance to continue the comparison. He opened the other boxes, and piles of small fuchsia bricks were revealed. "So many gems together? Do you think you're in Pa Dare the Emerald Mining Area? "

"What do you say is this?" Batlon asked unconvinced.

Li Dudao: "This is antique!"

A lively curiosity asked, "What kind of antique is this? Do you Chinese porcelain?"

Pieces of fuchsia bricks exuded a crystal sheen in the sun, and indeed looked like finely-fired porcelain.

Li Du shook his head and said, "No, don't you recognize them? But this thing hasn't appeared for a long time. This is a grape brick. It is estimated that there must be 70 to 80 years of antique grape bricks!"

"Grape bricks?" Playboy asked subconsciously.

The magic hand showed a startled expression, saying: "I just wanted to say the answer here. This should be a wine cellar, right? Most of the things made from dehydrated grape juice are used for wines in the period of the US Prohibition produce."

Effective January 16, 1920, the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution, the Prohibition Act, came into effect.

According to this law, it is illegal to manufacture, sell, or even transport beverages with an alcohol content of more than 0.5%. It is not illegal to drink at home, but it is against the law to drink with friends or hold a banquet. You can be fined up to $ 1,000 and imprisoned for half a year.

The Prohibition Act has left a strong mark in the recent history of the United States, so many stories have been born.

Li Du had previously come into contact with items created by the Prohibition Act, such as a private brewer. This time, the wine brick functions as a private brewing tool and is also used for private brewing.

Because wine production is banned, many winemakers continue to produce grapes or cut down vines to grow another crop, while others have begun researching grape bricks in order to continue to profit from wine.

As a result, a large amount of dehydrated grape juice became popular, because under the banned condition, bricks can be formally dissolved in water to make grape juice or make wine without official fermentation, which has made winemakers who own vineyards become Especially profitable.

Under the Prohibition Ordinance, grapes can be grown, but only in crops that do not make alcohol. In addition, if winemakers sell grapes to others, they may be sentenced to jail themselves once they know they are going to make wine from these grape bricks.

This means that winemakers must deny that their grapes can be made as wine.

To address this, winemakers will warn those who buy grape bricks: Do not leave grape bricks in the water for too long, otherwise it will start to ferment and turn into wine.

However, because grape juice will greatly affect its texture and taste after it is made into wine bricks, it is an immature substitute for wine. It has not existed in history for a long time, and was subsequently eliminated by the market.

None of the people present have experienced that crazy era. Grape bricks are not a famous role in that era, so few people know them. If it is not Li Du who reversed the time and saw the process of making them ~ www.novelbuddy. com ~ he doesn't know what it is.

These wine bricks were born in South America. When they were made, they found that the market effect was not good, so they were stored. Because they were made by dehydration, they had a long shelf life.

Of course, the shelf life is long and long, these grape bricks have not broken, but the taste is already very bad.

Li Du took a piece and put it into a cup. After pouring hot water into it, the grape bricks melted into purple grape juice. After licking with his tongue, he could taste the sweet and sour taste.

Grape bricks were not very valuable at the time, but now, almost a century has passed. This thing has become a rarity in modern times. Li Du thinks that putting them in the market should attract the interest of many nostalgic people. .

After confirming the identity of Grape Bricks, **** stared at Li Du and said, "I admit, man, your vision is better than ours, but what's the matter with this painting?"

Li Du shrugged: "Just what you saw, I also bought a painting, and my vision told me that this painting is worth hundreds of millions. It is not a painter's work with those paintings you bought. But In this way, this painting doesn't really mean much to you. You bought it to mourn your friends, right? "

Looking at Li Du's smile and the paintings in his hands, **** was cold all over. He was not a fool, instead he was very smart.

At this point he had realized that they had fallen into a trap. The painting in Li Du's hand was their goal. They spent more than 100,000 for a bunch of garbage!

Bell also guessed what was going on, and sighed: "I said, don't mess with him, I'm doing it for you!"
