Yu Yao has a lot of things on hand now, but the matter of the Ghost Eye Gate is obviously the top priority.

Yu Yao thought as he extinguished the cigarette, and inadvertently glanced towards the door, only to see someone looking at the door.

After seeing Yu Yao, the two looked at each other, Yu Yao smiled, walked to the door, and the person who came also pushed the door open.

It was a man in his mid-forties, wearing an old-fashioned gray tweed coat with a plaid scarf, a square face, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a large black bag. The whole has an old-school and old-fashioned feel.

"It's cold outside, please come in. Yu Yao greeted.

After the man entered the house, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the fog from his glasses. After putting his glasses back on, he said, "Boss, is this the new store?"

"It's been a long time, and it seems like you've not been here very often, but I reloaded it the other day. ”

"Oh, I really didn't pay attention to it before. I remember that there was a treasure hall at the west end of the old street, isn't this open?"

When Yu Yao heard this, he couldn't help but look at his bag. As soon as he heard this, he knew that he was not buying things, but selling things, and he had sold them in Jibaoxuan before.

"It didn't open half a year ago, and now it's a hardware store, if you come from the west, you should be able to see it, right?"

"Yes, I've come all the way from the west. There are also two antique shops that are not open. The man smiled, "The boss is so young, he opened an antique shop, it's amazing!"

"Eat with a mouthful. Yu Yao turned to ask directly, "I think you mean this, there is something to cut love?"

"I'm smiling, it's almost the New Year, and I'm a little tight on hand. It's going to make two old things at home. Don't you know what to do here?"

"Take it when it suits. Yu Yao beckoned, "Sit down and have a sip of tea first?"

"No, no, in that case, let's just take a look, right?"

"That's fine. Yu Yao said, letting the man to the edge of the counter, and went to the counter himself, and then took a cushion cloth and spread it out.

The man lowered his head and opened the bag, "There are two pieces, let's take a look at the jade pieces first, right?"

"Whatever you want. ”

The man took out a brocade box, opened it, took it out, and put it down.

Small pieces, Hetian jade carving. The raw material of this piece of Hetian jade should be the part where green and white meet, one white and half white. Using the two color differences, each carved a badger, head and tail together, hugging together.

Take its homonym, this is called "Shuanghuan", and Fushou (bat longevity peach), immediately Fenghou (monkey on the horse), all the way Lianke (heron bird lotus) and so on, is a common auspicious theme on jade carving.

Jade pieces from the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China.

"This one does. I don't know how you want to get out?"

"How much is it worth, boss?"

As soon as he said this, he knew that he was a layman. Of course, a layman may not understand what he has in hand, but he must not understand the way in the industry.

If you are an old oiler in the industry, you may also ask for a price, but you will often say, "You can watch it." ”

Supposedly, these two sentences actually mean the same thing, but the man's way of asking is timid, and it is also blunt.

Yu Yao smiled, this is the first new customer after the new renovation, and he doesn't want to be bullied, so he said quite honestly, "I have to change hands if I accept it, and I must set aside the market." Your Shuanghuan, a thing in the late Qing Dynasty, Yangzhou work, small pieces, and the knife technique is not very delicate. The regular receipt of five or six thousand will reach the top, and I will bring you eight thousand with the color head. ”

"That's not the price, is it?" the man frowned.

Yu Yao smiled and didn't speak.

I can't answer that. It has been made clear just now that the receipt should be set aside in the market.

Of course, this is not the case, and the market price must be more than 10,000. But this is an antique shop to receive goods, and the average shopkeeper will never go out to eight thousand.

Seeing that Yu Yao didn't speak, the man actually put away the Shuanghuan jade piece, "Forget it! ”

"Okay. Yu Yao can't raise the price again, he can't help it if he doesn't sell it, "Then another thing, do you need to see it too?"

"No, you're busy!" the man said, and took his leave.

This kind of thing is very common, and the man is considered polite.

Pu Jie didn't come in the morning. He has the key to the store, and with Yu Yao, he has an extra "stronghold", and Yu Yao also needs a trustworthy person to take care of the store when he is away.

Yu Yao didn't go home at noon, so he ordered takeout in the store.

After eating, he sat in the store for a while, and seeing that there were no customers, Yu Yao was ready to go home directly.

As soon as I got up, I saw someone looking in at the door.

Or the man in the gray tweed coat and black-rimmed glasses.

Yu Yao smiled and went over to open the door, "Have you changed your mind?"

The man smiled awkwardly, "After I left, I thought about it again, boss, you have a certain truth in identifying jade pieces." ”

"Come in and say!" Yu Yao made a "please" gesture, and the man hesitated for a moment, but still went in.

"Another thing, someone else has seen it, right?" Yu Yao handed over a cigarette.

When the man heard the word "also", his face became even more embarrassed, and he responded vaguely.

Yu Yao's heart was like a mirror, the man must have been to other places, not on this street, most of them went to the largest Qixingqiao antique market. And in the market, not only is no one bidding for Shuanghuan Jade higher than Yu Yao, but his other thing is probably not favored.

"Please sit down, it's cold outside today, you take it slowly. Yu Yao continued, "Your jade piece, if you don't worry, you can keep it." Alternatively, you can also try it online, and some platforms can also set a fixed price or something. ”

The man shook his head and said, "Online transactions are too troublesome, I don't know how much time will be delayed for a return, and it is not clear what happened to the bump." ”

"Well, I'm just making a suggestion. Yu Yao saw that the man was not sitting, so he put out the cigarette with his hand, "Then look at another one?"

The man didn't expect that Yu Yao only talked about the jade piece itself, and never mentioned the matter of being able to collect eight thousand, so he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

In the industry, the original price of the returning goods will be invalidated, and if you talk about it again, the person who returns will often have to cut the meat.

If the seller thinks that the buyer's bid is low, leaves, and goes back to find the buyer, the original price will not be counted, and the buyer is very likely to offer a lower price. Conversely, if the buyer thinks the seller is bidding too high, leaves, and goes back to the seller, the seller will also increase the size.

What's more, Yu Yao originally had the intention to take care of him, but he didn't appreciate it and left; when he completely figured it out, he came back and wanted Yu Yao to collect 8,000, so wouldn't he treat Yu Yao as a second fool?

So, don't say eight thousand, this jade piece will not be accepted.

As for the other thing, Yu Yao was not optimistic about it, because he didn't sell it either. However, the Shuanghuan jade piece is an old thing, and Yu Yao has a little expectation for the other one, and now he is a little confident of his high eyesight, so he also brings the luck psychology that people who have seen it may be distracted.

After the man was stunned, he couldn't help mentioning it for a while, and took out another thing first.

This thing was originally placed in a cylinder calligraphy and painting box, but what was taken out was not a calligraphy or painting.
