Chapter 235 Rhino Horn Cup

After flying back to Bangkok from the Philippines, Li Zhuo called Zheng Kun after getting off the plane and asked him to meet him at his Mandarin Oriental apartment.

Nana knew that he was busy with something, so she said:

"Then I'll take you home first, and then I'll take Medina to the mall to buy some useful things."

Nana drove the Panamera when she came to the airport two days ago, and she is driving back now.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, I will transfer some money to you." Li Zhuo said.

He had spent a total of less than 1.4 million yuan in the Philippines before, and he still had more than 1.6 million yuan in his Standard Chartered Bank card.

The expenses for Medina's mother were also paid by Nana, and Li Zhuo conveniently transferred 2.5 million baht to her to facilitate her shopping expenses.

After the car drove to the downstairs of the Mandarin Oriental Apartment, Li Zhuo got out of the car and got in by himself.

Nana happily led Medina around Siam Square next door.

Everything Medina saw here was strange. It was her first time to see such a prosperous downtown area and commercial shopping area. A large number of luxury goods were displayed here. She had never even heard of them.

Nana took her into the Paragon Palace. Medina was only 12 years old, so many luxury goods were not suitable for her.

But Nana had her own ideas, and she told Medina:

"You will go to an aristocratic private school to study later, so you don't want too many luxuries, but you must have them."

She took Medina into the LV store and bought her the smallest Nano Noe handbag, priced at 60,000 baht.

And a Nanogram hairpin, the price is 13,000 baht.

Nana took her hand and went to the front desk to pay with her card and then left.

In Medina's eyes, her sister is really chic and has a good temperament.

With her limited knowledge, she knew that the Thai baht was 1.5 times more expensive than the Philippine peso, so these two small things cost a lot of money.

Spending tens of thousands in one go, a girl from a slum felt that these two things were a bit heavy.

But this was just the beginning. Nana took her to the Dior store again and fell in love with a beautiful ivory cotton blend fleece dress, so she bought her one for 22,000 baht.

And a pair of children's light gray calfskin and off-white diagonal jacquard canvas sandals, the price is 24,000 baht.

I bought her a pure cotton short-sleeved T-shirt at the Gucci store for 7,000 baht.

A liberty linen skirt costs 18,000 baht.

A knitted children's cotton sweatshirt costs 13,000 baht.

A pair of ace series children's sports shoes decorated with GG, the price is 15,000 baht.

This cost almost 100,000 baht.

Nana looked unfinished, but Medina tried to dissuade her:

"Sister, you have already bought me a lot of things. Don't spend any more money."

Nana nodded with a smile and said:

"That's okay. In the past, your brother brought me to buy things and he always spent a lot of money. This time, he actually only spent 170,000 baht (34,000 yuan) and bought a lot of things. I feel like I didn't spend enough.

, then let’s go to a Thai brand clothing store, and I’ll help you get underwear and everything.”

The prices of Thai brands are much lower than those of luxury goods. She spent a total of more than 7,000 baht and bought a lot for Medina.

After finishing shopping, I looked at the time and saw that more than an hour had passed. At this time, Nana smiled and said:

"Medina, let's go, let's go back to our home in Bangkok first, and then we'll go back to our home in Pattaya tomorrow."

She took a lot of things, and Medina also took some, and walked straight out of the square.

Although Medina is a girl with little experience, she was quite surprised to find her home just a few dozen meters away.

The family is located in such a prosperous and tall building. Even if she has no idea about money, she knows that her brother and sister are not ordinary rich.

There is an exclusive passage here that connects the apartment to Siam Square, so the owner cannot enter.

Nana walked in with Medina. The property staff saw that they had brought more things and took the initiative to come over to help.

The real estate agent followed them to the 42nd floor, where the 230-square-meter flat that Li Zhuo bought was located.

Medina looked around curiously. Although she was unfamiliar, she was not afraid because she felt that both her brother and sister were very good and caring to her.

With them around, she is not too worried even in a strange environment.

Finally arriving at the place, my sister bowed to the property manager to express her gratitude, and the property manager hurriedly returned the gift before turning around and leaving.

Medina asked:

"Sister, is brother in there?"

"Probably. You knock on the door and ask your brother to open the door for us."

"Okay." She happily went over and knocked on the door.

……

Push the time forward a little.

After Li Zhuo returned to the flat floor, he turned on the central air conditioner to adjust the temperature.

Then he went to the bedroom, summoned the wishing incense burner, took out the reddish-brown cup, and summoned the incense burner back again.

He took a towel from the bathroom, moistened it slightly, and carefully wiped the cup.

After wiping it clean, he touched the material. It looked like it was made of animal horns. The cup was not big overall, with a height of 12 centimeters, but the mouth of the cup was about 14 centimeters wide. The shape was round and flat, and it was quite heavy.

I feel like I should weigh a little over 1 pound.

It is relatively plain on the surface, with no patterns or carvings on it, but it is very smooth and slightly cool to the touch.

Li Zhuozheng was thinking about it, and Zheng Kun came over.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the reddish-brown cup on the long table in the living room and asked:

"Brother Zhuo, is this the thing?"

"Well, that's it."

Zheng Kun touched it and looked at it for a few times, distinguished it carefully, put it to his nose and smelled it, and then said:

"It's rare. This is an old item, the rhinoceros horn cup."

Li Zhuo estimated that it was a horn product, and it looks right now.

"Is this a rhino horn cup? Made of rhino horn?" Li Zhuo asked.

Zheng Kun nodded and said:

"Yes, Brother Zhuo, the cup you bought is made of Asian rhino horn. It is also made of typical Sumatran rhinoceros horn. Among all rhino horns, it has the highest medicinal value and the highest unit price.

The most expensive."

Li Zhuoen sighed and then continued to listen.

"Let's put it this way, if it is African rhino horn, of course it is no longer allowed to be sold, but it is still available in private circulation. Its price is about 500 yuan per gram, which is more expensive than gold."

"If it is an Asian rhino, such as an Indian rhino horn, its price can be more than eight times that of an African rhino horn, because the texture of the horn is much better than that of the African rhino."

"But if it is the rhino horn of the Sumatran rhinoceros, which is basically extinct, its value is at least 10 times that of the African rhinoceros, and it has great potential for appreciation, so I judge that the price of this thing is very high."

Li Zhuo nodded. Based on the urine properties of the incense burner, he estimated that the rhino horn cup he got this time should be more than 3 million.

He couldn't help but ask:

"Tell me, how can you tell what kind of rhino horn this is?"

Zheng Kun nodded and said:

"Okay, first of all, how can we tell that this is a rhinoceros horn and not made of other animals, such as buffalo or antelope horns?

First of all, Brother Zhuo, look carefully at the texture of his outer wall. Do you see the fine linear distribution? It is relatively long and very regular filaments. This is the caviar pattern. It will be very clear after magnifying it twenty times. If not,
