"I want to hear about it!" Lin Feng sat opposite Chu Shuwan's father and said with a serious expression.

Chu Shuwan's father nodded and said, "Actually, using money to measure antiques is also a standard of measurement, which is not wrong! However, the standard of using money to measure an antique is mostly the standard of ordinary people. Among those who like to collect antiques, there are actually two categories.

In fact, this kind of people can't get rid of the psychology of ordinary people, and will use money to measure the value of antiques!

On the other hand, there is a kind of person who does not measure the value of antiques by money, and in my opinion, this kind of person is a real collector! ”

Hearing Chu Shuwan's father's words, Lin Feng nodded silently, the meaning of his words was very clear, most of the people who use money to measure the standard of antiques are ordinary people, and those who collect antiques in order to appreciate them also use money to measure antiques. Chu Shuwan's father is different, he is a person who really likes to collect, and he does not measure the value of antiques by money.

In other words, this jade pendant is actually priceless to him. It's just that he doesn't have the financial strength to bid for it.

However, the more this was the case, the heavier the suspicion of him became in Lin Feng's heart! Since he really liked antiques and was a real collector, how could he behave as if he had lost interest in this jade pendant after it was taken away?

Chu Shuwan's father continued: "Most collectors like me who don't measure the value of antiques by money have one thing in common, that is, they are interested in antiques from a certain period! I am interested in that jade pendant because I am interested in antiques from the Ming Dynasty, especially jade. ”

"Uncle mean, in your opinion, this jade pendant is a priceless treasure?" Lin Feng asked tentatively.

Chu Shuwan's father nodded and said, "It's okay for you to understand it like this!"

"However, I clearly remember that day at the auction, when the bidding price soared, you said that the bidding price at that time had far exceeded the value of the jade pendant, isn't this still using money to measure this jade pendant?" Lin Feng thought for a while and asked this question.

"Haha!" Chu Shuwan's father laughed heartily and said, "This is actually a paradox! In my eyes, this jade pendant can be said to be a priceless treasure, on the day of the auction, you also saw that I have bid several times, and the price is quite high, it is because I think this jade pendant is what I like, so I will do this."

Moreover, I can tell you with certainty that if this jade pendant is auctioned by me, I will not change hands no matter how high the price is offered by others!

When I say this, can I prove that this jade pendant is a priceless treasure for me?"

Hearing Chu Shuwan's father ask, Lin Feng nodded and said, "Yes!"

"However, there is also a market for antiques, and there will always be a market reference price. Chu Shuwan's father continued: "The ordinary people I said, as well as collectors who collect for the sake of appreciation, measure the value of antiques by money, and the price of this money is actually derived from the reference of the antique market.

When I say that the auction price at that time far exceeded the value of this jade pendant, I was referring to the reference price in this market, which was aimed at ordinary people and collectors for the purpose of appreciation.

For me, this was not the case, and even though I knew that the price at that time had far exceeded the market reference price, I still made a few high-priced bids. You also agreed with me just now, and from this point of view, this jade pendant is indeed priceless to me.

It's a pity, God doesn't fulfill people's wishes, the transaction price of this jade pendant is really sky-high, and the auction price soared all the way at that time, and soon it was beyond my ability to bear, and I could only cry out in vain. ”

When he said the last sentence, Chu Shuwan's father looked regretful, as if he was very sorry that he couldn't bid for this jade pendant.

Lin Feng said with a smile: "Since my uncle likes this jade pendant so much, why did he leave immediately after the jade pendant was successfully auctioned? Don't you want to know who got it? Also, as soon as you left, this jade pendant was transferred to me, which was a sensation at the time, because I didn't know the person who took the jade pendant at all." ”

"Since I don't get it, I don't pay too much attention to it. Chu Shuwan's father smiled helplessly and said, "People like us who really like to collect antiques from a certain period of time are most likely to come across something we like. If you can't get it, the best thing to do is to leave quickly and cut off your thoughts! Otherwise, if you keep thinking about this thing, it will make you feel very uncomfortable. ”

After a pause, Chu Shuwan's father showed a self-deprecating smile on his face and said, "This is the old saying, out of sight, out of mind!

"Hehe!" Lin Feng smiled and didn't say anything more. Chu Shuwan's father's explanation seems to explain why he no longer continues to pay attention to this jade pendant.

If he really is such a collector, it would be like that. He can't get it, and if he thinks about it again, it's just adding to his troubles. It's better to stop paying attention to it directly, out of sight and out of mind.

"Uncle, this jade pendant is sold at a price of 20 million, what do you think?" Lin Feng thought for a while and asked this question.

Again, it varies from person to person. Chu Shuwan's father said: "This jade pendant, according to the reference price of the antique market, it is difficult to reach even a million price! However, the result is actually very unexpected, the auction price has soared, and the final 20 million transactions are also a fact that you have seen with your own eyes." Perhaps, the person who took this jade pendant is also a real collector!"

Without waiting for Lin Feng to say anything, Chu Shuwan's father frowned and said, "But, this doesn't seem to be enough to say, if he is a true collector, it is not surprising that he spent such a sky-high price to auction this jade pendant, but in the end he deflected it and gave it to you, why is this? I can't figure it out, I don't know if you can explain it to me?"

"Afterwards, I met the auction winner, who was not really a collector. Lin Feng said: "As for why he gave me this jade pendant, I don't know the reason, I don't know him at all!"

Faced with Chu Shuwan's father's rhetorical question, Lin Feng would definitely not reveal a word.

"You, the client, have seen the auction winner who passed it on to you, and you can't figure out what's going on, so I can't figure it out. Chu Shuwan's father smiled and said this.

"Hey!" Lin Feng sighed and said, "What's going on! I bought this jade pendant at such a high price, and then gave it to me who I didn't know, but the market value of this jade pendant is not so high! I don't even know what to do now." ”

"Take it. Chu Shuwan's father didn't think about it, and immediately said: "If you take it out and sell it, or transfer it to collectors, it will definitely not reach the sky-high price of 20 million! Even if you take it out for auction again, it is unlikely that someone will spend 20 million to auction this jade pendant." ”

Lin Feng said what he said just now, completely to test Chu Shuwan's father. What Lin Feng said, the meaning is actually very clear, although this jade pendant was successfully auctioned for 20 million, it is not worth the money, and he doesn't know what to do, it is just a euphemism.

However, Chu Shuwan's father didn't say anything about wanting to buy this jade pendant from Lin Feng, or let Lin Feng transfer this jade pendant to him.

"Since my uncle said so, then I'll keep it for now. Lin Feng smiled and said, "I don't know if this guy who gave it to me will ask me to get this jade pendant back." Maybe one day he will think that he has done such a thing, and he will come back to me again!"

Hearing Lin Feng's joke, Chu Shuwan's father smiled and didn't say anything.

"Uncle, I don't know how long this jade pendant can stay in my hands, so let's play with it for you for a few days. As Lin Feng spoke, he took out the jade pendant and said, "If the auction winner asks me for this jade pendant one day, I will definitely return it to him, and it is good for my uncle to play with it for a few days first." ”

Hearing Lin Feng say this, Chu Shuwan's father was a little surprised, with a look of surprise on his face, and asked, "Are you really planning to lend me the jade pendant to play for a few days?"

"Of course. Lin Feng smiled and handed this jade pendant to Chu Shuwan's father.

Chu Shuwan's father stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant handed over by Lin Feng, and said, "Thank you so much! You don't know, people like us, once we see something we like, it must be a lie if we don't want to." If you can't get your hands on it, it's good to be able to stay in your hands and play for a few days. ”

However, as soon as the words were finished, Chu Shuwan's father frowned.

"What's wrong?" Lin Feng couldn't help but ask when he saw Chu Shuwan's father's appearance.

"Are you sure you got this jade pendant from the auction house?" Chu Shuwan's father played with this jade pendant, looked down at the jade pendant in his hand, and then raised his head, looked at Lin Feng and asked.

"That's right. Lin Feng immediately said: "This jade pendant is what I got from the auction house, and I went through the procedures at the auction house at that time, and this jade pendant has been carried by me since then." ”

"That's not right!" Chu Shuwan's father immediately shook his head, the look on his face was very affirmative, and said, "This jade pendant is fake!"

"Fake?" Lin Feng looked shocked and said, "It's impossible, right? This jade pendant was obtained from the auction house, how can it be fake?"

"I don't know. Chu Shuwan's father shook his head slowly, handed this jade pendant to Lin Feng, and said, "But this jade pendant is definitely fake!"
