When Gao Yang said Yelena was his girlfriend, the clerk who received Gao Yang shrugged and said, "Maybe I was wrong. You are the lucky ones with such a girlfriend."

Gao Yang smiled and said, "I am really lucky to be favored by the beauty, but can you tell me why this piano can't be sold to me?"

The clerk said apologetically: "Sir, we cannot sell you this piano, not for you. In fact, we are not for anyone. Let me first introduce this violin to you. This piano is the work of the Italian luthier Stradivari in 1724. As an outsider, you may not have heard of this name, but let's put it this way, Stradivari's piano is a dream for every violin master, and Stradivari's piano is not just a musical instrument, but also an antique with great collection value.

Stradivari's works are worth at least one million as long as they are well preserved. This piano was taken by violin master Isaac Stern in 1963. Since then, this piano has been played by Isaac Stern. When Mr. Isaac Stern died, he made a will to hand it over to our store to sell it, and it was sold at the original price when he bought the piano.

The amount of selling this piano will be donated as a charitable fund, but the condition for buying this piano is that the person who uses this piano must be a young artist, and his artistic accomplishment must be matched with this piano. Sir, if this piano is auctioned normally, the starting price should be more than 1.2 million US dollars. I personally expect the auction price to be at least more than 2 million US dollars. It only costs 620,000 US dollars to be purchased in our store. Famous masters cannot buy it, and young people cannot meet the qualifications or be judged by the master. Therefore, this piano has been here for a long time. Now unless you can prove that you are worthy of this piano, we cannot sell it."

After listening to the clerk's long speech, Gao Yang felt that there was indeed a reason why he couldn't sell it. After all, buying this piano was equivalent to picking up a big advantage or secondary. More importantly, those who could buy this piano were equivalent to being recognized by the music industry.

Although this store has reasons that it cannot be sold casually, Gao Yang still remembers Yelena's eager eyes when she looked at the piano. Gao Yang made up his mind in an instant that he must buy the piano. If he really can't sell it, he must get it.

"Sir. What if the purchaser is qualified? There must be an evaluation standard."

The clerk smiled and said, "It's very simple. Just get the two violin masters at the same time. The two gentlemen standing next to you are qualified. Which gentleman is a professor at the Juilliard School is definitely qualified to make an assessment, and the other one is definitely qualified. It's rare that the two of them can get together, but today you just happened to meet them."

When the clerk was talking, he pointed to the two old men who had been chatting. When he saw the two old men, Gao Yang felt speechless. No wonder Yelena greeted people with an excited look on her face. She said these two inconspicuous old men were still some masters.

However, what made Gao Yang depressed was that even the two people who were qualified to judge had no choice but to do so. If he had known that things were so coincidental, he would have to let Yelena try the piano no matter what he said. Although Yelena is not likely to be qualified to buy it, she must try it.

After sighing a long time, Gao Yang said with a depressed look: "I originally planned to give my girlfriend a surprise, but now it seems that I should have called her to stop her and let her try this piano."

The clerk shrugged and looked helpless and said, "It's true that your girlfriend should try it, but it's a pity that Mr. Jack Kangtou Houfu is leaving the United States today, and he just changed a string in our store, and the piano is about to be repaired. So I think if your girlfriend wants to have another chance to try that piano, she may have to apply to our boss in advance and wait for another chance. Fortunately, it's very close to the Lincoln Art Center and there should be a chance, but it depends on luck. You know, there are really few opportunities to get at least two violin masters together at the same time."

Gao Yang regretted it, and he immediately said anxiously: "It seems that it is impossible for me to give her a surprise, but can I give my girlfriend a chance to try it? I'll go and get her back immediately."

"I'm very sorry, sir, it depends on whether Jack? Kangtou Houfu agrees. I think you can ask him in person."

Just when Gao Yang was about to ask the old man named Jack Kangtou Houfu if he could wait for a while, Jack Kangtou Houfu suddenly said, "Young man, did you say that the girl was your girlfriend just now?"

Gao Yang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, sir, you may have heard our conversation. Can you give a very talented girl a chance and be willing to wait for a moment?"

The old man who was also a violin master standing next to Jack Kangtou Houfu suddenly said, "What is your girlfriend's name?"

"Yelina."

"Full name."

"Yelina Yura Ivanova."

"May I have your name?"

After hesitating for a while, Gao Yang said honestly: "My name is Gao Yang."

The old man nodded and said, "It seems that you are his boyfriend, a Chinese man named Gao Yang, that's right. Yelena has few classmates who know her full name because she doesn't want to tell her full name, but her classmates, especially male classmates, all know that her boyfriend is named Gao Yang. Are you engaged? "

Gao Yang opened his mouth wide in surprise and said in a daze: "Ah? Ah! Do you know me? How is this possible? What are you talking about?"

The old man shrugged and said with a smile: "I am Yelena's teacher. I have read her admission record specifically, so I know her full name. The reason why I know your existence is because you are a celebrity. Let's put it this way, Yelena has fought twice since she entered school, or she has sent two poor suitors into the hospital. The reason is because of you, because the people who pursue her mentioned you, haha, you are a public enemy that only exists in the legend, especially when Yelena officially announced that she has been engaged to you and will get married just after she graduates. I guess the person who wants to beat you will be able to line up a long line."

Gao Yang was completely stunned. He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't say a word. Looking at Gao Yang's dull look, the old man chuckled again: "Yelina is the most talented child I have ever seen, and the hardest child I have ever seen. One thing she often says is that her father and boyfriend earned her tuition fees based on life as capital, so she does not allow herself to relax. I don't know what job you do, and I didn't intend to inquire, but I think you must be engaged in a very dangerous job. Young man, you and Yelena are both lucky. You are really lucky to have each other."

Gao Yang nodded subconsciously, but he quickly reacted and said anxiously: "Sir, since you admire Yelena very much, can you give her a chance? I really want to buy this piano for her, because I know she is eager to get this piano, and I also think she is qualified to get it."

Yelena's teacher nodded and said, "I think so too. If I am qualified to choose, then it is Yelena. I am very sure of this and use my personality as a guarantee."

The clerk who hosted Gao Yang immediately said: "Of course you are qualified, but we need two masters to make a choice at the same time."

Yelena's teacher smiled and looked at Jack Kangtou Houfu beside him, but Jack Kangtou Houfu pointed to the violin and said to the clerk: "If you confirm that I am qualified to make a judgment, then sell the piano to him. In fact, I was going to say this just now."

Yelena's teacher looked for granted, as if he had known that Jack Kangtou Hou Fu would have made such a choice, but the clerk who received Gao Yang was stunned and said, "Sir, of course you are qualified to make a judgment, but have you heard of any girl's performance?"

Jack Kangtou Houfu nodded and shouted: "Of course, I have heard it twice, once in the Juilliard Student Band, and once in her solo. I am old, but I can remember the name of this girl, because I have a very deep impression of her. She is the biggest gain of my trip to the United States. Her piano sound has a soul. As long as it is tempered, she will be a master of a generation. Personally, I don't think anyone is more qualified to get this piano than her."

The two masters made a judgment at the same time, and the person being judged was not even present. The clerk who received Gao Yang immediately nodded and said, "I understand. Although the boss is not there, I am qualified to make a decision. If the two gentlemen can make a written statement, this piano belongs to the Miss Yelena. Of course, the premise is that the gentleman has to pay 620,000 US dollars."

Gao Yang was ecstatic and nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course I want to buy it."

After Gao Yang finished speaking, he remembered that he had not enough money now. He now has $360,000, which is still half the difference. However, there can be no Swiss bank branches there, but there will definitely be one in New York, and it must be on Wall Street.

"Sir, I don't have enough money now, but I can get it back soon. Can I pay half of it first as a deposit?"

The clerk smiled and said, "No need to be so troublesome. As long as your girlfriend doesn't give up on her own initiative, she can just pay within one month. After all, we have to leave time for young people to raise funds."

Gao Yang immediately said: "Waiting for me, I will bring the money back soon after in less than a month. By the way, can I pay in cash?"

"Sorry, because it is a large amount of payment, we can only accept checks or card swipes. Of course, transfers are fine. If necessary, we can provide you with an account."
