Chapter 474: Real Gold Is Hard to Find
This palm-sized piece of gold silk money is so cherished that it is only used to attract wealth for an antique shop, which is really a bit too extravagant. So the feng shui master specially got a piece of wood of the same size, painted the front black, stuffed it back into the plaque, and made a small steal to change the beams.
Of course, this is not the end of the story, the feng shui master can't take other people's things for nothing, right? If he takes it like this, won't he become a thief?
So he spent another half a year to develop a set of wealth accumulation circles suitable for antique shops, although the effect is certainly not as obvious as the gold silk money wood, but it can also exist for a long time, helping the antique shop to flow for a long time.
The protagonist in the story, that is, the feng shui master who found the golden silk money wood, came to steal the beams and change the pillars, and is now the president of the Central South Provincial Metaphysics Association, Qian Musheng. And this story was also specially told to Lu Chen by Qian Musheng when he was chatting.
With the particularity of that piece of gold silk money wood, in the hands of Qian Musheng, it can be used to the best of its ability and play a real role. If it has been hidden in the plaque of the antique shop, it can only be said that the cannon fights mosquitoes, and it is overkill.
Therefore, when Qian Musheng told Lu Chen this story, not only did he not feel any guilt or shame, but he was also a little proud. After all, this success proved his vision, and at the same time allowed him to include a treasure, how not to let him be proud?
Lu Chen also understands Qian Musheng's mentality, in the southern city in the story, there are also many feng shui masters gathered, and that antique shop has been open for hundreds of years and has a long history, and almost half of the city knows it.
But except for Qian Musheng, other feng shui masters were unable to discover the peculiarities of this antique shop, and they were finally succeeded by Qian Musheng, doesn't it also prove that his level is higher?
At this moment, the little gourd in front of Lu Chen was exactly the same as the dilapidated plaque that Qian Musheng had encountered, and it was responsible for covering up the good things in it and using the blinding method to confuse others.
Qian Musheng discovered Jinsi Qianmu because of his carefulness and patience, and for Lu Chen, he purely relied on his own intuition.
"Sometimes, intuition can be very useful. ”
Lu Chen smiled slightly, the more he looked at the little gourd in front of him, the more pleasing it became.
After taking away the piece of gold silk money wood, Qian Musheng spent half a year to set up a set of feng shui wealth gathering magic circle for the antique shop, and the small gourd in front of Lu Chen was not taken for nothing.
When he bought the 500 catties of candles, the owner of the incense candle shop quoted a high price, and the other party thought that he didn't know the market of the candles, so he deliberately doubled the price, and then pretended to be in pain to deal with Chen Haoxuan's bargaining.
Take the final transaction price as an example, even if it is cut in half, the owner of the incense candle shop will still make a profit. What's more, before leaving, he also asked Chen Haoxuan to pay a deposit of 2,000 yuan.
He will definitely not ask for the 500 catties of candles next month, so the 2,000 yuan is actually equivalent to giving it to the owner of the incense candle shop for nothing.
Maybe this kind of practice will make some people think that Lu Chen is deliberately cheating people, if there is really a magic weapon hidden in the small gourd, with the current price of the magic weapon, wouldn't the owner of the incense candle shop have to lose to his grandmother's house?
But Lu Chen doesn't think so, because in the feng shui world, there has always been a saying, called "There are times in life that must be there, and there are times in life when you don't force it."
There are countless cases where you have eyes and don't know gold and jade, but you are picked up by others, which is an understandable thing.
The owner of the incense candle shop just regarded the small gourd as an ordinary thing, otherwise, it would not have been hung on the wall for so many years, so that the surface area of the gourd accumulated so much dust and stains.
Even if Lu Chen didn't buy this little gourd, it is estimated that in the next few years, when the dilapidated incense and candle street is about to be demolished, this inconspicuous little gourd will be discarded by the owner of the incense and candle shop along with other useless things in the store.
When it comes to this magic weapon, in fact, the general nature is not much different from the antiques that people like to collect, once you meet what you like, no matter how much you pay, you must also receive it in your own hands.
However, a careful comparison between the two shows that antiques are ornamental and research-oriented, and they are cultural treasures left by the ancients to future generations, on which countless historical, cultural and social information are deposited.
As for magic weapons, on top of these attributes, there will be a special practicality.
Normally, when you go to the antique street and see an inconspicuous antique, which is sold by the boss as a handicraft, will you be ready to pay for the leak, or will you tell the boss the truth about the antique?
This is just like the corner ornament that Lu Chen and his father-in-law Ye Jianwen bought on the antique street before, the corner ornament was obviously regarded as a modern handicraft by the stall owner, and he sold it at a casual price.
Could it be that at this time, you will take the initiative to tell the stall owner the actual situation of the ornament directly and calmly, or will you deliberately add tens of thousands of yuan to the other party in order to pity the other party for selling a good thing that you don't know the details?
Even if you do increase the price, I'm afraid the stall owner may not be able to sell it!
After all, no one is a fool, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and the stall owner will definitely be able to guess what secrets are hidden or greasy when things go wrong, and there will be no door for you to buy them.
Therefore, usually in the antique market, the seller will raise the price of what he sells to a certain high price, waiting for the buyer to take the bait. And buyers are optimistic about an antique, and they will also work hard to lower the price and bargain.
The same applies to the artifact market, but only if you can find a real artifact.
The owner of the incense candle shop didn't know the situation of the little gourd, but just regarded it as an ordinary thing, as long as he was happy, he said that he would give it away, and there was no nostalgia.
He has a treasure in his hand, but he doesn't know it......
Such a situation can't help but make Lu Chen have some guesses, it is very likely that the father of the owner of the incense candle shop did not tell anyone about the gourd in order to hide his eyes and ears and prevent people with ulterior motives from knowing the secret of the gourd.
But later, the old man died because of an emergency, and he didn't have time to inform the future generations about the gourd, so he let the owner of the incense candle shop treat the gourd as an ordinary thing, and he didn't know the secrets hidden in it.
Lu Chen got the gourd at a low price and was satisfied, and the owner of the incense candle shop also earned thousands of yuan from him, and happily took the initiative to give the gourd to him, so that neither side would lose.
Of course, he didn't tell the owner of the incense candle shop the truth, in fact, there was another layer of consideration.
Not all feng shui masters have the patience to bargain and negotiate, in case they meet someone like Wu Zihe, what will the incense and candle shop owner's family look like?
Sometimes, ignorance is a blessing!
