"There are too many liars in the world, and I'm afraid there aren't enough fools. 」

This sentence is said in a chic manner, but it is condescending. Standing at the top of the pyramid of the field, he looked down at the people who were crawling begging for a little change in their quality of life.

Lin Yu is the founder of the Chaumet Group, a well-known figure in the entire antiques industry. When he came out to play with the collection, most of the vendors in this incense street didn't know where to play with mud. Can he be deceived by a fake of a Qianlong bottle with poor painting skills, only a burner can still use it a little?

I don't know how many famous Qing Dynasty artifacts he has in his hands, and there are still several in the study. There are two pieces of the four big characters of "Qianlong Imperial System" on the base, which may be the treasure that Emperor Qianlong also played with back then. He'd seen the really good stuff, the kind of shoddy stuff that made it to the point of being able to make a difference.

"Who wants to be a big boss, and provoke the jokes of those white-eyed wolves for nothing?" Lin Qiu said very dissatisfied. "Those people who have made your money will not be grateful to you, they will just say, "I met another stupid hat today." ”

Lin Yu pulled the grocery cart and walked in front, Lin Qiu held the bottle of the old man Panasonic and followed him to his right side slowly, and the father and son walked in the direction of home. From time to time, when you meet familiar people, you have to say hello to Lin Yu.

"Did you pick up another leak today?"

"Ouch, this is your boy? It's so big? This bottle is a good thing, and you can tell at a glance that it's not a bargain......

"Your eyes are getting more and more poisonous, I'll invite you to tea when you're free, and you can also tell us the trick of how to not hit your eyes......"

--------

"Lao Li, why are you going to buy groceries? It's a little late today. ”

"This kid only has a tall head, not a brain, and he can't use it. ”

"It's okay to drink tea, but if you want to invite me to a cup of tea, take out all the contents in my stomach, and then you have to take care of the food......"

-------

Lin Yu coped with the greetings and greetings of acquaintances while answering Lin Qiu's complaints.

"Do you think it's expensive to buy a bottle from the Qianlong period for one thousand and five?" Lin Yu asked aloud.

"Of course it's expensive. Lin Qiu squinted his eyes, and the evening sunset reflected on his tall and beautiful face, making his skin almost transparent and pale, as if he was a vampire who came out of the night. "This is not a real bottle from the Qianlong period, and I don't know which pheasant processing factory imitated the fake, and the cost is not even fifty yuan...... It takes up space to take it back and arrange flowers, and there are enough vases at home. Why don't I drop it now?"

"I think it's cheaper. Lin Yu said loudly: "I thought that when the counteroffer was 1,000 and 5, he would bargain with me for at least two more rounds, and the price would be about 3,000 yuan." Unexpectedly, he didn't even have the confidence to raise the price in a round, and when he saw that I was about to leave, he hurriedly sold the goods. What does it mean?"

"Does it mean that guy is content and happy?

"No, it means that the entertainment market has been very sluggish recently. Lin Yu glanced at his son, sighed softly, and said, "You can't just look at a corner of things, you have to look at the overall situation." It is best to make a small business to have a more in-depth and comprehensive understanding of our industry. ”

"There is no separation between cultural toys and antiques. The big collectors collect antiques, and the small collectors collect cultural toys. There is an old Chinese saying that it is called gold in the prosperous era of antiques and troubled times. What does the current slump in the cultural toy market mean? It shows that at this stage, the common people have no spare money to invest in antiques. The common people have no money in their hands, and the business of the big bosses above will definitely have problems. When the roots of the tree wither, the trunk naturally loses nutrients. It's closely related, don't you understand?"

"So, my father bought this bottle just to understand the market?"

"That's just one aspect. Lin Yu said with a smile, and patiently told his son about the principles of dealing with people: "I spent 1,500 yuan to buy a fake, what will these businessmen in the antique market think?"

"They'll think the guy who sold you the bottle today was so lucky that he had a fat sheep to slaughter. ”

"Not bad. Lin Yu nodded, and then asked, "And then?"

"And then?"

"And then they'll think, that guy can meet the sheep, and I have a chance to meet the sheep. So, are they more motivated to work? Can they hold on longer even if business is bad----- and if there are always other opportunities for wealth in front of them, how can they control their greed without waiting or pursuing?"

"For example, the advertising slogan of the lottery ticket, two dollars to buy a dream. They knew that hope was illusory, but they were still willing to smash it for two dollars and two dollars. They wanted to get that dream for two dollars, and the lottery company ...... It was enough to earn them a steady stream of two bucks. ”

Lin Qiu suddenly realized, nodded, and said, "Father, I understand." ”

"Got what?"

"These small traders and peddlers are like those fighting cocks in the cockfighting ring, and if they want to make their fights more ferocious and more cruel, they throw two small bugs into them from time to time. ”

Lin Qiu looked down at the Qianlong bottle of the old man Panasonic in his arms, and said, "This thousand five hundred yuan is that 'worm'. ”

"Well, drink pigeon soup at night. Lin Yu said with a smile: "Stew with wolfberries and red dates, and add a handful of saffron, which is fresh and sweet." By the way, you call Chu Yi and ask her to come back for soup in the evening. ”

"It's really eccentric. Lin Qiu said dissatisfiedly. When there is something delicious to eat at home, my father is always the first to think of my sister.

"My daughter is a little padded jacket, what are you?"

"Down jacket?"

"No, you're just a torn jacket that gets wind all over the place. ”

“……”

When Lin Chuyi opened his eyes, it was dark all around, and needles could be heard in the space.

"Xiaohe?" Lin Chuyi called out.

No one answered.

She slammed herself to her feet and lit the lamp next to the couch, and the room was lit again. She opened the electric curtains, and it was already bright outside, and the traffic on the long street was like an endless silver dragon.

Raising her wrist and looking at her watch, it was already more than six o'clock, and she had slept for more than four hours.

"Oh my God------ Lin Chuyi patted his forehead, thinking to himself, how could he sleep for so long? In the past, it was already a luxury to be able to sleep for half an hour at noon.

"It's all to blame on that damn dream. Lin Chuyi complained in his heart.

Even more bizarrely, she hadn't received a single phone call all afternoon, something that would not have happened before.

"Where's the phone?"

After searching around, I finally found my phone in the corner of the sofa. I pressed it, and the phone still shows a black screen.

The phone will automatically turn off when it is out of battery.

"Damn it. Lin Chuyi went to the bathroom to wash his face, tidied up his makeup, and then grabbed his mobile phone and walked outside.

Xiaohe, the secretary who was dozing off in the cubicle, hurriedly greeted him and said, "Boss, are you awake?"

"Hmm. There's nothing going on in the afternoon, right?" Lin Chuyi asked out loud.

"Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li have been here, and I knew that the boss was resting in the room, so I stopped them. Xiaohe reported loudly. "I asked, and they said it didn't matter. ”

"Where is Jiang Lai?" asked Lin Chuyi.

"Teacher Jiang------" and Xiaohe thought to themselves, they really have a close relationship, and they just woke up and urgently wanted to meet again. "Mr. Jiang works at the restoration center. ”

"Huh?" Lin Chuyi was taken aback and said, "He hasn't gone back yet?"
