Chapter 9: Bluffing
It's already noon, and there are not many stalls on Huiji Road, but the basic ones that are put out are genuine, and the huge "antique counterfeiting group army" in the future is basically still exploring counterfeiting technology to play by itself!
It's just that there is nothing good to put out, Zhang Nan doesn't have many eyes, and it's not worth shooting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I've been here a few times and met an acquaintance, and the man mysteriously took out a bronze knight from his bag.
"The old family just sent it, two hundred yuan. "This trafficker is a native of Yu Province, surnamed Shen. This bronze jue has not been unearthed for a long time from the surface, and it is obvious that Tufuzi has just dug it up, but it is something that has been opened widely. Generally, the bronze country prohibits trading, but this lord can be sold for twenty or thirty thousand in private after twenty years.
"I said Lao Shen, don't take out this kind of goods, it's still two hundred? hehe, eighty is about the same. "Zhang Nan doesn't like to touch bronzes very much, it's too risky.
"Although this lord has a good ornamentation, but there is not a single inscription, eighty is not bad. But even if there is an inscription, I won't be able to do it this time, and I have to go to errands, and it's inconvenient to carry an explosive-bomb. ā
The cultural relics dealer didn't force it, hid Jue again, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Zhang, to be honest, do you want something good?"
"What is it?" "If you don't like to touch it, it doesn't mean you don't touch it, if it's really good, you can buy it yourself." These first batch of Central Plains cultural relics dealers who can take root in Shanghai, don't look at the stalls now, but all of them have great powers, and national treasures can give you the whole country!
Rather than the exodus of national treasures, it is better to collect them yourself.
"A bronze plate of this size, with a diameter of 58 centimeters and a weight of 48 pounds! Several of my brothers from my own family dug it out of a big tomb, and the hole was more than ten meters deep! The whole body has a dragon pattern, and the inscriptions are four hundred and six! To tell you the truth, there are also a few dings, beans and some small pieces that came out together, all of which were shot at us. No one can eat that plate, so they asked me to come here. ā
"Do you have a picture?"
"Yes. ā
You said that this antiquities dealer was so thief that he didn't even put a photo on him, but pulled it out of a crack in the wall behind the stall.
"Look, that's it. Hand Zhang Nan two five-inch enlarged black and white photos, "This photo was washed by a relative, and it was just sent two days ago." You also know that this will be strictly investigated in Shanghai, it's not that acquaintances dare not take it out, but also rich people. Those gringos have money, but it's hard to take it out, and they don't know the rules, so it's light to sit in prison if they are caught. ā
Listening to the nagging of the peddlers, Zhang Nan has already focused his attention on the photos. Although this photo is not very clear, I can still feel that this thing should be reliable: it is a huge copper plate similar to the "Sanshi Plate", with high feet, two ears, and more than 20 lines of inscriptions cast on the inner bottom of the plate, and there are about 400 words at a rough look!
This photograph taken from the side shows the belly and high feet decorated with dragon or animal face patterns, which is very exquisite! The black and white photograph does not show the rust color, but the counterfeiters of this society have not been able to make such a beautiful imitation, and it will not be until at least ten years later.
returned the photo to the dealer, "Lao Shen, they are all people in the industry, to be honest, this grade of local goods, you must look at the real thing to finally price." How much money do you want over there to sell?"
This old Shen has been paying attention to the pedestrians on both sides, and only whispered when there was no one: "Don't say it, my cousin said in the letter, the things are very well preserved, the patina is only a little bit, it is all black oxide, and the rust is also very thin." The minimum is 20,000 yuan, and there will be no counteroffer! If you want it, don't mention it if you don't want it!"
20,000 yuan, this is a sky-high price! The tomb robber seems to have knowledge and knows that this is a good treasure, so it is no wonder that no one in the local area can afford to eat it: This will be a worker in Henan Province with a monthly salary of 60 or 70 yuan, which is the sum of the salary of 20 or 30 years! Moreover, it will be more difficult to take out 20,000 yuan privately than to take out 5 million yuan in one go 30 years later! Not to mention that the cultural relics market has just begun in big cities.
However, this tomb robber is by no means clear: there is a "scattered plate" in the Treasure Island Palace Museum, otherwise it may open several times the price!
Zhang Nan was really tempted! This is very likely to be a treasure who has not appeared in public again in the future, and it is estimated that in the end, these cultural relics dealers will be in the hands of a foreign private collector!
I can still get 20,000 yuan in cash, but I have to look at the goods first.
"Okay, you ask your old family to send it over, but you have to keep it for me for at least a month, and I'll come back in a month. ā
"That's fine, but you have to put a deposit, at least 200 yuan. ā
Zhang Nan didn't talk nonsense, and pointed out 20 pieces of unity from his pocket. He also gave him a 5 yuan "steelworker", pointed to a pair of walnuts that are rare in Shanghai and common in Beijing, and asked, "How much is this?"
"This thing belongs to the Republic of China, it's worthless, you have to give it to you. Although this old Shen didn't understand why he pulled it to the walnuts all of a sudden, he was also generous.
Putting away the five yuan, he had already seen that the two walnuts were not good at age and pairing, so he picked up the walnuts with his right hand and played with them for a few laps.
said to Lao Shen: "Let's all play this, we understand how deep the water is." After dealing with me a few times, you only know that my name is Xiao Zhang, and I also know that your name is Lao Shen, so this is the best, very good! When the time comes, I will look for you, and there will be up to three people per party to inspect the goods. Let's talk ugly ahead, the business is not lovely, if there is something demonic, some small actions, don't blame me for being ruthless. ā
"In China, it should be about the rules. ā
Lao Shen also understood the stakes, but when he heard some strange sounds, he lowered his head and gasped: this little Zhang opened his right hand and put a bunch of crumbs on the canvas of the stall.
Playing with walnuts is not a walnut to eat, the shell is very tough, but it was completely crushed by Zhang Nan!
This is definitely practiced, if you grab your arms and legs, then don't you tear off the meat?!
"Alright, let's go, see you then. ā
After speaking, Zhang Nan turned his head and left, just now he didn't know how many people he had bluffed in his life, and he thought he was a martial arts master.
In fact, it's not so mysterious, a few years ago, "Shaolin Temple" was a big hit, and he pisted his cousin-in-law to learn martial arts in the army intermittently for two years.
And this hand kung fu is just a small trick to practice since childhood, a small play in the countryside style that has been passed down since ancient times in the hometown: "100 days of vigorous work", that is, when you are idle, your hand pinched a small wooden board according to a certain way of force to play.
Anyone can practice, and the effect is obvious. If you persist for three or four months, the grip strength of this hand will be greatly increased, and the strength of your fingers will be enhanced.
And Zhang Nan has been playing with the wooden board for more than ten years, don't look at his arms are not thick, two walnuts are crushed as if they are playing;
Seeing that the time was about the same, I walked back to the snack bar, and as soon as I entered the door, the boss said that the ticket seller Lao Wang and the coin seller had arrived.
