Chapter 239: Digging a Pit

It turns out that it is not only poplar who thinks that they can hunt for treasure here.

Usually, when an old house is to be demolished, it can cause a swarm of "bees". Not to mention dismantling a piece, it is definitely a big move, how can it not attract the attention of some people?

Unlike Qian Datong, Bi Xiushan is a person who doesn't understand appreciation at all. However, he can also be in the antique shop.

Ten years ago, he was just a garbage collector, a middleman, buying from waste pickers, and then pulling himself to a scrapyard farther away to earn a little difference in the middle.

Don't underestimate such a price difference, ten years ago, this industry was quite profitable, and a group of people who collected garbage became rich.

He also took the opportunity to make a pot of gold, an inadvertent opportunity to let him know that in this world, there are antiques in the garbage heap.

On that occasion, someone bought an old thing from the scrap he bought for 500 yuan.

Bi Xiushan understands that it seems to be more profitable to sell old things than to make a little intermediate profit. Especially as more and more people enter the garbage collection industry and the competition increases, it becomes more and more difficult for them to do it, and they make less money.

So, he changed his mind and opened a second-hand store. Specializes in recycling second-hand things, refurbishing them slightly, and reselling them. However, opening such a store, buying and selling second-hand goods is just a cover, and the most important thing is to buy some old things that are suspected of being antiques at the reserve price, and then sell them at a high price.

It was a good idea, and it made him a fortune.

However, he later discovered that there were too few antiques among the old items. He had other thoughts, such as cheating. Get some fakes and fool people who aren't particularly good.

He is self-aware and can't fool those professional antique appraisers.

However, with the advent of the collecting craze, eight out of ten people who play collecting are not skilled. Especially those who go to the lower levels, such as the antiquities dealers who shovel the land, they don't really know much.

So, it's not too difficult to fool that kind of person.

In the past two years, after he transformed, he successfully deceived many people. Many of them are those low-level cultural relics dealers, they are not strong, they all want to take advantage, want to start at a low price, and will not be too vigilant, anyway, their purchase price is not high, and they can't lose too much.

Bi Xiushan took advantage of the other party's situation and took advantage of the loophole. Sometimes, deliberately disguise yourself as a scavenger and then take something fake out to fish.

The place of demolition is a good place, and he knows that there will definitely be people to pick up the leaks, which is a good object for him to start.

"Brother, are you smoking again?"

When Bi Xiushan looked at it, he was surprised: It was the same person yesterday again? Yesterday, he successfully sold three things, all of which were given to the person in front of him, and he got about 2,000.

"Let's have one! Thank you!" Bi Xiushan grasped the measure of people's hearts very well, and did not immediately throw out the bait, waiting for the other party to take the initiative to ask.

Qian Datong took out a pack of cigarettes, pulled out one for the other party, then took out a lighter and lit it: "Brother, did you pick up any good goods today?"

That's what you're waiting for.

Bi Xiushan was surprised: "It's all here, you can see for yourself." However, brother, you are really fair, the price you give is high, unlike before, some people asked, but they all took dozens of dollars to fool people. ”

Qian Datong laughed: "That's for sure, when I do business, I pay attention to reputation, which is different from others." That's why I have repeat customers that others don't. Everyone makes money, and that's the long-term solution. ”

While talking, I couldn't wait to open people's garbage bags, which contained all kinds of garbage, waste paper, broken copper and iron, plastic bottles, etc.

He didn't feel dirty, flipped for a while, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, and his eyes were attracted by a bronze mirror.

Qian Datong took out the bronze mirror and blew it hard with his mouth to blow away some of the dust on the surface. This bronze mirror, the more I look at it, the more I like it. I didn't expect to encounter such a good thing today.

Although his identification ability is poor, he still has a little bit of knowledge.

The bronze mirror is not only an indispensable daily utensils in ancient China, but also a handicraft that inherits ancient civilization. In recent years, bronze mirrors have been favored by collectors for their excellent production, beautiful shape, gorgeous patterns and rich inscriptions.

Judging from the market of the copper mirror collection market in recent years and the cultural value of the copper mirror itself, the bronze mirror of the Warring States, the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty is the most worthy of collection, because the bronze mirror that appeared in these three historical periods, whether it is from the degree of popularity, casting technology, or from the artistic style, etc., all represent the highest level of the ancient bronze mirror.

For example, he heard that a Tang Dynasty Rui Beast Grape Mirror had been auctioned for more than 2 million.

And the market of bronze mirrors, he also understands.

For example, even if the bronze mirror is very ordinary, the price of a single mirror is between 6,000 and 20,000 yuan, the price of a single mirror is about 5,000 yuan, the price of a single mirror is less than 1,000 yuan in the figure mirror of the Song, Jin and Yuan dynasties, and the price of a single mirror is less than 1,000 yuan.

Bi Xiushan saw Qian Datong's expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull a smile: Have you taken the bait?

He likes this kind of person who has half a bucket of water, understands a little, and then has no strength, and can't identify the real from the fake.

"How's it going?, is there anything that my brother likes?" asked Bi Xiushan knowingly.

Qian Datong hurriedly concealed his appreciation for the bronze mirror, and smiled indifferently: "This bronze mirror looks a bit old, how about five hundred?"

"Brother, give me more! How about a thousand? It's not easy for us to pick up garbage. This mirror, which I turned out of an old cabinet, looks like a piece of copper with weight, how can I miss it?

Originally, there was a compass, but I thought it seemed to be broken, and there were more components of wood, and there were not a few taels of iron after dismantling, so I didn't take it. ”

"Oh, yes, take me around later, maybe it's worth some money. If it's a thousand yuan, I'm also a little risky, I'll add another 100 yuan to you, how about 600?" Qian Datong listened, and there was a compass, which was estimated to be worth some money, so he hurriedly stabilized this person and immediately added 100 yuan.

Bi Xiushan hesitated for a while, and said with difficulty: "Add two hundred!"

Qian Datong shook his head: "At most, give seven hundred, this bronze mirror looks a bit old, but I don't dare to bet." Even if it is true, if it is an object from the Song, Jin, and Yuan dynasties, the market price is less than 1,000 yuan, and I have almost no money. ”

"Okay, seven hundred, thank you, brother. ”

Qian Datong took the bronze mirror, counted seven hundred yuan for the other party, and then asked the other party to lead the way to see if the compass was still there.

Bi Xiushan couldn't help but snicker in his heart: How could he not be there? The compass was a little hidden in his possession, and other scavengers would not find it at all. Besides, how long has he only been out, and has been turned over so quickly?

He had already dug the pit and waited for others to jump in.

Yesterday, I pit this guy once, I didn't expect everyone to be so fateful, and I met again today, and I am destined to eat this guy again.

The bronze mirror, as well as the compass, he knew very well that the cost he got from the people who usually wholesale fakes to him was only a few tens of yuan.

He was quite satisfied with being able to turn dozens of dollars into hundreds, ten times the profit. It's a solid business, even if it's not crazy.

On the way, Qian Datong didn't have the heart to brag with Bi Xiushan, and his energy was focused on the bronze mirror.

He has a bad mentality, he can't get a thing, he will feel pity, regret, and regret, but when he is really taken by himself, there will be a lot of doubts.

Just like this bronze mirror, now I hold it in my hand, look at it carefully, and find that it is not as good as it was at the beginning, and I always feel that there are pits, gains and losses.

In fact, this kind of mentality is not only for him, but also for this industry. Other people in many industries will have similar experiences.

I always regret what I didn't get, and I always questioned what I got it!

He felt that he seemed to be a little impulsive, and he shouldn't give seven hundred, but about two hundred.

As everyone knows, if it is two hundred yuan, Bi Xiushan may not pay attention to him.

Although people are planning to make small profits and quick turnover, they don't really want to sell so cheaply. The purchase price of dozens of yuan, and the hard work fee of about 100 yuan in the middle, is obviously not enough.

Qian Da thought to himself, after a while, he found the compass, and he couldn't be so generous.

"How far is it?" he couldn't help but ask.

"It's not far away, it's the three-story house in front, I remember it's on the first floor, you don't have to climb up. Dude, be careful, there's a bit of sewage here. ”

In the alley, there is a shallow layer of sewage, and it also emits a foul smell.

Bi Xiushan frowned slightly, he was careful, and he found that something was wrong. There were also bricks in the alley, and there was a cushion every other step, but he deliberately threw them down so as not to stain his shoes.

However, when I counted it now, I found that there were more bricks.

So, it means that someone here is patronizing, hoping that the other party will not mess up their layout, and the rest of the garbage will be picked up, even if it is picked up, he doesn't care, he is not a person who really picks up garbage.

"Hmm, someone went in?" Qian Datong also frowned.

They had not gone far in, and before they had reached the door of the house, they heard a voice coming from inside, as if it were not alone. It's just, why does this sound a little familiar? I think I've heard it somewhere.

Bi Xiushan's brows furrowed even more, and he felt uneasy, feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Is it easy for him to make a few hundred yuan by himself? He deliberately stepped on the point in advance, and then planted "mines", etc., and made a lot of preparations, if this was sabotage, he really wanted to say MMP.

"Don't worry, brother, that compass looks like it's made of wood, and the person who picks up the garbage shouldn't want it. Bi Xiushan said.

It is not so much to comfort Qian Datong and reassure the other party, but to comfort himself.

"It's hard to say, let's go faster. Qian Datong urged.
