Listening to this set of rhetoric that clearly fooled the layman, He Manzhou frowned slightly.

Ma Yangkun has a very bad reputation in the antique circle, he sells things all by one mouth, the quality of the object depends on whether the story is good or not, most of the things in the store are fake, at most it is a handicraft with good workmanship. And the snuff box that was blown to the point of mystery was put in a fake, and it was considered a bad imitation.

She didn't need He Manzhou to look at the details carefully, and after looking at it from afar, she could tell the authenticity of the object.

He Manzhou's family has been intellectuals for three generations, her grandfather is an old scholar in the history department, and her father He Sheng has been a professor in the archaeology department of Z University for decades. Antiques are Lao He's life's career, and there are countless private collections of antiques at home, most of which are Lao He's "leaks" to take, and any one of them he is like a treasure.

To use an exaggerated analogy, when contemporary children are playing with Lego bricks, He Manzhou holds the enamel tea set and white marble seals, and crawls in the antique pile, taking his father's collection as enlightenment education. If you don't even have this bit of eyesight, you don't deserve to be Lao He's daughter.

And now the old man who has been fooled by Ma Yangkun is obviously not an expert, and he is not a local when he listens to the accent.

The antique market on Biyun Street often attracts tourists from other places, and there are also people from the surrounding small towns who come to sell some things urgently, after all, pawnshops and other places do not have a price, if there is really a treasure, there is no shortage of a way out of Biyun Street.

This Uncle Li is obviously the latter.

Listening to what Ma Yangkun said so mysteriously, the old man wanted to take it over and take a look at it, but when his hand touched the snuffbox, he couldn't help but shrink back.

It's not that Ma Yangkun didn't let him see it, but he didn't dare to touch it at all.

"How much is this snuffbox worth?" he asked.

"This is a snuff bottle in the Guangxu period, and there is also a handwritten payment and seal by Ma Shaoxuan, who ranked first in the "Four Families of Beijing" of the Beijing school snuff bottle, how much do you say it is worth?"

For the antiquities business, many people use their eyesight as a rice bowl to eat, the small ones are to distinguish the authenticity of the objects, and the large ones are to evaluate the antiques at the auction, and they are in the bag at the appropriate psychological price, and the test is the temptation before you come and go.

The onlookers were talking, and seeing that the old man was suspicious, Ma Yangkun couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

Although Ma Yangkun is not authentic, he is well-informed and very good at playing tricks with others. From the moment this Uncle Li came to his store with a porcelain vase to inquire about the market, he immediately saw that this was a very valuable treasure, and the old man was a layman, so he quickly stopped the person in a few words, calculating to deceive the things.

As for first saying that this is a fake deliberately belittled, and then raising the value, it is in a fog that I want to bluff the old man who has never seen the world and does not understand the market in the antique world, give him a dismount, and then slowly close the net.

"If you really want to sell this item in your hand, I can take it. Ma Yangkun wrapped the coat he was wearing, stretched out two fingers and shook it gently, he had done so much to lay out, the asking price was naturally not high.

The old man asked hopefully, "Two hundred thousand?"

Ma Yangkun shook his head and said unhurriedly: "Twenty thousand." ”

"Twenty thousand .....?" the old man trembled a little while holding his antiques, how could it be worth so much money?

Hearing this, he really felt anxious.

The antique industry is too deep, the slightest carelessness is to lose money to buy and sell, the old man does not understand antiques, and there is no way, can only take this porcelain vase as the last straw.

The people who joined in the excitement gathered in the store with great interest, listening to Ma Yangkun's mysterious words, and there was a lot of time to open their eyes today, and they saw really good things, which was worth the trip.

The follow-up is not much to look at, all walks of life have rules, laymen look at the excitement, and insiders are watching.

Somehow, He Manzhou remembered his father again.

She had also encountered such a thing in Biyun Street before, and whenever her father stopped her, she would still run to expose and make decisions for the bitter master, but Lao He did not agree with her approach.

He said that in the antique industry, as long as it is not illegal, he still has to be nosy. Take today's events as an example, if she and Lao He see each other, Lao He will definitely warn her that this old man was deceived, and he can only say that his eyesight is not qualified, and spending money to buy lessons is not a bad thing for people who have not set half their feet in the water.

What's more, Ma Yangkun is not a good type, and if he comes out casually, he will get into trouble for himself, so it's better to be alone.

He Manzhou lowered her head, she glanced at the front again, she was disobedient when Lao He was there, and she did things according to her own will, now that he is gone, she should be obedient once, don't make trouble again.

Thinking like this, He Manzhou turned around and prepared to leave.

"The owner...... I want to sell, it's just ...... Can you really only receive 20,000 yuan, even if you add more? Boss, my family is really in trouble, my granddaughter is still in the hospital, 20,000 yuan is not enough, can you add more...... Is it done?"

"Hey, what you're talking about, who doesn't have a little difficulty at home and would think of selling family heirlooms?"

Ma Yangkun sneered, seeing the old man's face wandering, he spoke more energetically.

"Don't hesitate, I'll just tell you, you met me, I told you so much, I didn't ask for an appraisal fee. If you take this object to the White Jade Building, this treasure will not be sold, and you will have to spend a lot of money. To put it mildly, if you walk a few hundred meters further and enter the antique city, you don't know what you will be pitted, think for yourself. ”

After these words fell, Li Lao's face turned completely pale.

20,000 is not a large amount, not even a fraction of his granddaughter's medical expenses, the old man really didn't expect that the porcelain vase that his ancestors regarded as a treasure was so worthless, obviously a little panicked, and his eyes were full of desperate despair.

This psychological war is not over yet, and Ma Yangkun continues to mend the knife mercilessly.

"If it weren't for my good heart, I might not be willing to accept this thing, and there would be no store in this village. If you don't believe me, you can go to the antique city, but when you come to me again, we won't be at this price. ”

"Boss, look again, my granddaughter has diabetes, and the family's money is really not enough...... Even if I sell the house in my hometown in the countryside, it will take time to turn around. The hospital said that if you don't pay the fee today, you can only stop the medicine, and if you stop insulin for diabetes, you will die......"

"Yo, I've told you everything, this porcelain vase is a fake, if it weren't for the good workmanship, I wouldn't be happy to accept it. ”

"Fifty thousand...... No, 30,000 ......," Li Lao said, "I told my granddaughter before I left, I will definitely come back, when I come back, her illness will be saved, the child is still waiting for me, I can't let her down......"

"You're really interesting, if it weren't for your pitifulness, why should I help you?" Ma Yangkun sneered, "It's not over taking advantage, or you might as well find another master..... Uncle, please go out and turn left, I won't do this business. ”

He Manzhou was already leaving, but after listening to the old man's words, she finally stopped.

At that moment, He Manzhou's heart was the figure of Lao He, remembering that before he left, he said that he would return safely and participate in her art exhibition, so that his daughter should not worry.

However, He Sheng never came back.

.......

"Your old man has said it, your granddaughter is waiting for life-saving money in the hospital, diabetes can't lack insulin, once that thing is broken, it will be fatal, are you sure you don't sell it to me, you have to go over there to touch the nail?"

Over there, Ma Yangkun said that his finger was pointing to the mouth of the alley, which was a few hundred meters away, the three-storey antique building at the mouth of the alley.

If you really have a good letter to go out and take a look, you can see the plaque with gold letters on a black background under the neon lights.

- White Jade Building.

Baiyulou is the most well-known antique city on this antique street, and it is quite well-known in Z City, and all the antiques sold to the outside world are fine products on the market. In addition to the gorgeously decorated antique city, the Bai family also has its own auction house, and its influence in the industry should not be underestimated.

In proportion to the popularity of Bai Yulou, it is their good reputation, everyone knows that the Bai family pays attention to honesty in doing business, Tong Su is not bullied, famous, and what he buys between them is authority and confidence.

When Ma Yangkun's words fell, there were so many people who were half-aware and half-understood among the people who watched the excitement, and they began to talk around.

"If you want me to say, such a good object, why don't you go to Baiyulou to identify it?"

"Yo, that's right, but Bai Yulou's long eyes are not cheap, if this thing is not valuable, wouldn't it be a waste of RMB, then it would be a loss." ”

After listening to the discussions, the old man glanced at the white jade building in front of him, just looking at the luxurious appearance of the building, he didn't have the courage to approach, he just sighed lowly.

Ma Yangkun's words were like nails in his heart, and the words of the onlookers kept adding fuel to the fire. The granddaughter is living in the ward, and every extra minute is an extra risk, and if the medicine is really stopped, the person will really not be saved.

Although 20,000 yuan is less, it is better than nothing, even if it can last one more day.

Even if it's a day...... That's good, too.

Thinking like this, Li Lao already had the heart to hand over the porcelain vase.

But his hand was halfway up when he was gently pressed down by a fair-skinned and beautiful hand. Under the sudden change, the old man's outstretched hand was withdrawn, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed, but the girl opened her mouth first.

"Boss Ma, you're a bit of a smear of your peers, I really can't listen to it. Whether the appraisal fee of Bai Yulou is expensive or not is a later story, at least people do not sell fakes, and they will not tell lies to deceive people. ”
