Chapter 498: Carved Dragon Paperweight
Hearing that the stall was going to ask the organizer for arbitration, Chu Xiong's face also changed.
It was clear to him that the outcome of the arbitration would certainly not be in his favor.
Because he provoked the bid just now, no one forced him at all, and the organizer arbitrated to make him pay according to the final bid, and there may be a fine.
And it is very likely that he will be blacklisted and banned from participating in the trade fair in the future, and he must not lose his qualification to participate in the trade fair.
"No need, one and a half million!" Chu Xiong waved his hand.
Thinking of the possible serious consequences, he glared at Xu Qiang fiercely, in his opinion, it was all Xu Qiang's fault, and then he was ready to pay one and a half million.
As a result, in front of everyone's eyes, Chu Xiong paid viciously.
"Xu Qiang, the matter between us is not over!" Looking at the mocking smiles of the people around him, Chu Xiong put down a cruel sentence.
He and Xu Qiang didn't know each other before, and just asked Wang Fu to come over, just to teach Xu Qiang a small lesson and warn Xu Qiang to stay away from Deputy Director Song.
But now it's different, there is already hatred between him and Xu Qiang.
One and a half million will not make him break his muscles and bones, nor is it the main reason for hatred, the main reason why he has hatred for Xu Qiang is that Xu Qiang made him lose face.
Lose face in his group and lose face in front of the audience.
He is a very good-looking person, and whoever makes him lose face in front of everyone is more uncomfortable than killing him, so he completely hated the medal.
Deputy Curator Song is his number one enemy, and Xu Qiang is number two.
"I'll wait for you, but next time you provoke me, your fate will only be worse!" Regarding Chu Xiong's threat, Xu Qiang didn't pay attention to it at all.
If you are in a hurry, let him evaporate from the world.
As soon as the onlookers dispersed, Xu Qiang saw Deputy Curator Song coming over, and if he had come a minute earlier, he would have been able to see Chu Xiong.
"I saw a group of people gathered here just now, what happened?" Deputy Director Song came to Xu Qiang's side and looked at the people scattered around him.
"Chu Xiong is here!" Xu Qiang said.
"What is he here for, is he here to trouble you?" Deputy Curator Song knew Chu Xiong very well, and as soon as he heard Xu Qiang say that Chu Xiong was coming, he immediately guessed the purpose of Chu Xiong's coming.
In the past, many of the people around him had been threatened by Chu Xiong.
"He's here to spread wealth......" Xu Qiang smiled and said lightly what had just happened.
"You must be careful in the future, he is a very good-looking person, you have disgraced him, he will definitely retaliate back!" Deputy Director Song immediately solemnly warned Xu Qiang.
He also reminded Xu Qiang that Chu Xiong was not just a businessman.
Chu Xiong's black, blue, and gray forces, he suggested that Xu Qiang, if there is nothing very important, leave the magic capital immediately after the trade fair.
Avoid the limelight first, and you can't return to the magic capital for at least half a year.
Xu Qiang and Deputy Curator Song were together, and within a quarter of an hour, Deputy Curator Song was called away again, he was a celebrity in the magic capital, he had many friends, and he had many things to deal with.
Xu Qiang became a person again, hanging out at the trade fair.
Half an hour later, a sneaky man came up to me.
"Handsome guy, I have something good, do you want to see it?"
"What do you call it?" Xu Qiang asked with a smile.
The man's sneaky behavior reminded Xu Qiang of some people on the antique street, some people who sold shady antiques, they didn't have a shop, and they didn't dare to set up a stall, so they had to take things with them and look for targets on the antique street.
Once you have your eye on your target, you will act like the man in front of you, sneaking up on your target and selling antiques to them.
I just don't know what the man in front of me is peddled?
"You can call me a mountain ghost, come here!" the man pulled aside with Xu Qiang.
At a trade fair, it is impossible to find a place where no one is around.
They're just a little bit more out of the way, a little less crowded with people.
"Look, it's definitely a good thing!" the mountain ghost took out a long strip of object from his clothes, and the sun suddenly burst into starry light.
It's golden silk nan ebony!
Xu Qiang recognized it at a glance, it was the top-grade golden silk nan ebony.
A brilliant golden light can actually show the situation of water ripples, and with a little shaking, the water ripples can actually fluctuate.
Xu Qiang motioned for the mountain ghost to put it on the ground, and then he picked it up again.
"It's really a good thing!" Even if you don't have to look at the aura with ghost eyes, Xu Qiang can identify it, it is a good thing to open the door wide, a rare boutique.
Finally, the aura field was used to confirm Xu Qiang's identification results.
It is a golden silk nan ebony paperweight in the Tang Dynasty, and a dragon is carved on it, which is the palace article of the Tang Dynasty at a glance.
It has not been damaged at all until now, and the price is very high.
"What's the price?"
"Fifty million!" the mountain ghost offered.
"Fifty million?" Xu Qiang was slightly surprised.
Not too expensive, but slightly cheaper.
The paperweight in front of me is made of the finest golden silk nan ebony, and it is the craftsmanship of the top craftsmen, coupled with the dragon-shaped pattern on it, it must be for the royal court, it is not uncommon to ask for seventy or eighty million, but the mountain ghost is only fifty million.
The discount is a bit big!
Xu Qiang, who thought that the mountain ghost would open his mouth, was very surprised.
"Deal!" Xu Qiang agreed directly.
"Is this the deal now?" Xu Qiang then asked.
"Of course not now, let's go out and trade!" the mountain ghost whispered.
"Go out?" Xu Qiang asked suspiciously.
"You should know that according to the rules of the fair, once the item is sold, the trade fair will charge a fee of 10%, 50 million, they will charge 5 million, it is a bit too greedy, as long as we go out and complete the transaction outside the fair, we can save 5 million!"
The trade fair will take a cut, and Deputy Director Song has already told Xu Qiang.
If you do not close the transaction, you will not be charged any money, and once the transaction is closed, a transaction fee of 10% will be charged from the seller by default, unless otherwise agreed by the buyer and the seller.
That is to say, after the transaction is completed, the mountain ghost will pay five million to hand over to the organizer.
If you leave the scene of the trade fair and trade outside, it is difficult for the organizer to know, and even if you do, what can you do?
Xu Qiang guessed that there must be many people who think like mountain ghosts.
But there are pros and cons to the transaction, and the advantage is that of course it is to save a lot of money, and the five million does not have to be handed over to the organizer.
The downside is that there may be some problems.
For example, the mountain ghost may be a fisherman who deceived Xu Qiang in the name of trading, but after he went out, it was not a transaction, but a robbery.
Of course, this is only one possibility, there are other possibilities.
So the mountain ghost proposed to trade outside, and Xu Qiang became vigilant.
"Can't you trade here?" asked Xu Qiang tentatively.
"The organizer wants to charge 10 percent, are you willing to take it?" the mountain ghost asked Xu Qiang rhetorically, 10 percent is not a lot, not everyone is willing to go.
"Yes!" Xu Qiang nodded.
"Are you serious?" the mountain ghost looked at Xu Qiang with some surprise.
"Of course I'm serious, I'm out of the cost of the transaction!"
"No one's money is blown by the wind, since you can save it, why do you need to take it out, let's go outside to complete the transaction, it's just a few more steps!" Even if Xu Qiang has already promised, the fee charged by the organizer will be paid by him, and the mountain ghost still tries to persuade Xu Qiang.
The more the mountain ghost persuaded him, the more Xu Qiang felt that he was suspicious.
He had almost concluded that the mountain ghost must have another purpose.
It's just that he doesn't know the origin of the person who calls himself a mountain ghost, so he can't think of what the purpose of the mountain ghost is, and he lacks the necessary reference conditions for speculation.
"Anyway, the money is mine, you don't have to pay a penny, you don't have to think too much, complete the transaction as soon as possible!" Xu Qiang stopped the mountain ghost from continuing.
"Can't you really go out to trade?" the mountain ghost looked at Xu Qiang and asked.
"Why do you want to go out to trade so much, is there any purpose?" Xu Qiang asked jokingly, in fact, he had already decided.
The mountain ghost insists on trading outside, and there must be something greasy inside.
Xu Qiang carefully looked at the people around him, and he suspected that the mountain ghost had accomplices.
However, looking at the people around me, none of them behaved abnormally.
"I actually said that I had another purpose, it seems that you didn't have the sincerity to buy it, in that case, I won't sell it......" The mountain ghost looked as if he was angry, and turned around and left after speaking.
"Wait, why didn't I buy it sincerely? The price was from you, I didn't bargain, and even the organizer's fee was from me, isn't this sincere?" Xu Qiang called out to the mountain ghost.
"No, if you go out with me, it's counted!"
"Why don't I give you some more money?"
"Farewell!" the mountain ghost head did not look back and left.
Soon disappeared into the crowd, and Xu Qiang couldn't find it even if he wanted to find it.
Xu Qiang then followed and found that the mountain ghost had strong anti-tracking skills, but Xu Qiang's tracking skills were stronger, making it impossible for the mountain ghost to get rid of Xu Qiang.
A quarter of an hour later, the mountain ghost met with a man.
Xu Qiang recognized it at a glance, the man who met the mountain ghost was a man who was following Chu Xiong just now, the size of the big fat man was too obvious, too eye-catching, and the two of them were muttering.
It's just that the distance is too far for Xu Qiang to hear at all.
He tried to read the conversation between the two with lip reading, but he was often blocked by others, so that he could not see the lips of the two of them talking.
"I can only risk getting closer......" Xu Qiang quietly approached the two people under the cover of the flow of people, and the two people didn't notice it at all.
When the distance was close to ten meters, I could finally vaguely hear the conversation between the two.
"The surname Xu is too vigilant, he insists on trading in the trade fair, but once I trade at the trade fair, I will appear on the trading list......" said the mountain ghost.
"I don't care what you do, the ebony paperweight must be handed over to Xu Qiang!" said Xu Qiang, an unknown big fat man who had followed Chu Xiong.
"I've already seen the ebony paperweight, it's a genuine product with a wide opening, a treasure, the antique itself is absolutely fine, and it's not a recently unearthed cultural relic, why do they have to send it to me?"
Not only to deliver it to him, but also to deliver it to him at a low price.
If you get 50 million and send it to the auction house, you can earn at least 30 or 40 million, and if you are lucky, you can even earn half a billion.
Xu Qiang didn't believe that the other party had such good intentions, and deliberately sent him money.
Since it is not good intentions, it can only be malicious.
"There must be something wrong with the ebony paperweight, but what is the problem?" Xu Qiang thought about it, but couldn't think of what the problem was?
"I'm going to figure it out, but I want to change it to an antique, it can't be Jin Si Nan ebony anymore, he has already seen it just now, and if he sees it again, it will arouse suspicion, change it to something else!"
"Changing to another antique? Isn't there something wrong with the golden silk ebony itself?"
Hearing the mountain ghost say that he would change the antique and send it to him for another piece, Xu Qiang was even more confused and decided to continue listening.
