Chapter 53: The Paper Bag in the Flower Goblet

Yu Yao smiled slightly, "Because I can't afford it!"

Hong Kong Fat stared at Yu Yao's eyes, "What else?"

"If you have money, you won't lose money. Yu Yao added ambiguously.

Hong Kong Fat smiled, "It's just a loss." But after shopping for so long, there are so few real things. ”

Yu Yao didn't answer anymore, and lowered his head and continued to look at the alum red flower. However, he took a high look at Hong Kong Fat, and Hong Kong Fat's eyesight is really good.

Hong Kong Fat then said to Lao K, "60,000 yuan is the highest I can bear." ”

Old K hesitated. Because he saw that Hong Kong Fat said this price, if he didn't agree, Hong Kong Fat would really let go.

This water chestnut bottle, he came at a high price, thirty-five thousand. The reason why I quoted 70,000 yuan is to have a 100% profit. However, from the dawn of the stall to the present, I have not gone out. This Guangxu official kiln, not up or down, old players may not be able to see it, novices may not be able to understand it, and this glaze, this type of ware, is a niche.

"Okay, take it!" Old K finally nodded.

If it is another business, the cost of a piece of goods is only 35,000, and you can make 25,000, which is really a huge profit. But the antique shop is different, it will not open for three years, and it will be open for three years, although this statement is a bit exaggerated, but it is not nonsense.

First of all, Lao K may not be able to encounter such a thing in the short term, and he may only make such a profitable business in a few months. Because of some small profits, the little money earned may not be enough for the interest on the capital he pressed on all the inventory.

Before leaving, Hong Kong Fat took a business card, quietly put it in Yu Yao's coat pocket, and then patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "If I guessed correctly, you are an antique dealer, right? ”

Yu Yao said "um" and didn't say much, but he thought in his heart that this Hong Kong fat not only has the ability to see things, but also has a set of people.

Hong Kong Fat left, and Lao K nodded at Yu Yao, "Thank you for helping me speak." I came here for 3,000 flowers, if you want it, look at it and take it. ”

In fact, Yu Yao didn't help him speak just now, and it was indeed not a loss to win the water chestnut bottle for 60,000, but it just didn't make much money.

But this stall owner, Lao K, is quite particular.

At this time, Lao Zhou came up, "Okay, boss, how about three thousand six, six or six Shun?"

"Okay, take it. ”

Since Lao K said so just now, it means that you can take it with an additional three or five hundred, and Lao Zhou also took advantage of the situation to come up with an auspicious number, so he naturally agreed.

But at this time, Yu Yao still didn't see anything special about this flower goose, and said in his heart that although three thousand six is a small amount of money for Lao Zhou, what can he do with an ordinary high imitation?

However, looking at Lao Zhou's determined appearance, there should be some reason why it is worth buying. You can't ask at this time, so Yu Yao didn't say much.

When leaving, Yu Yao and Lao Zhou both carried heavy things in their hands, and Yu Yao wanted to ask Lao Zhou why he wanted to buy it, so he proposed to find a place to rest.

The four of them found a small shop, bought a few bottles of drinks, bought a newspaper, and then came to the door of an unopened shop not far away, and simply spread the newspaper on the steps and sat down.

Yu Yao spoke directly, "Old Zhou, what are you doing when you buy a big new job?"

Lao Huang was watching from the sidelines at the time, and he didn't speak, but he couldn't hold back for a long time, "I asked." ”

Pu Jie lit a cigarette, "I see that Lao Zhou is actually absent-minded when he looks at the surface, and he is very attentive when he stares at the inside of the flowers." ”

Lao Zhou took a sip of his drink, "Pu Jie is right, there must be something, I think there seems to be something in it, but this flower is too deep to see clearly." ”

"Hey, didn't you shine a flashlight?"

"Of course, if I hadn't taken it, would I have bought it for three thousand six? ”

Yu Yao asked, "Listen to what you mean, I didn't see anything clearly at first, and I read it with a flashlight, but I still don't know what it is?"

"That's the case. Lao Zhou explained, "At the beginning, when I looked at a ball of things, my first reaction was that someone might have inadvertently stuffed a ball of waste paper. But when I thought about it, no! This flower goose is big at both ends and thin in the middle, and if someone inadvertently stuffs it, it will be stuck in the middle and can't reach the bottom. It's going to have to be patiently poked a little bit. That's why I shone it with a flashlight. ”

"Even if you poke it, it has to be a soft thing, otherwise it will ring as long as you have time, and the stall owner will not pay attention to it. Yu Yao pointed to the bag, "Come on, come on, let's take a look." ”

Lao Zhou took down the bag and continued while unpacking the wrapped newspaper, "I used a flashlight to shine like this, and there was indeed a ball of paper underneath. However, it is not waste paper, it looks like good rice paper, and it is not a mess, like a paper bag. Because of this situation, I only spent 3,006 on a gamble. ”

After speaking, Lao Zhou also peeled off the newspaper and put the flower goblet on the ground, Yu Yao took a flashlight and shone it in, which is what Lao Zhou said, the surface of the paper bag is still a little fluffy.

However, the paper bag is indeed tightly stuffed, and it is very likely that the space under the paper bag has been stuffed with something like paper first. Otherwise, the bottom of the flower goose is relatively large, and even if you barely poke the paper bag down from the thin place in the middle, you can still move it when it is dangling.

"It looks like a raw xuan, it absorbs a lot of water, and if it gets wet, it's even more difficult to take it out. Lao Huang also looked at it with a flashlight. He is engaged in calligraphy and painting, and he is relatively good at rice paper, "It's easy to poke it in, but it's hard to take it out." ”

"No, take it back and soak it in water, soak the paper and rot it, if there is something in it, won't it be poured out?" Lao Zhou replied casually.

"This won't work!" Lao Huang immediately objected, "What if there is nothing in the paper bag, but a calligraphy and painting is stuffed underneath?" Although the paper should not be too old, even if it is a work of a modern master, it is not cheap!"

Yu Yao took a deep puff of cigarette, "This is a big new job, not an old product, it's really strange to stuff it into a paper bag like this!"

If this is an old object, there is something hidden in it, and it is not difficult to understand that it has been forgotten and omission after a long time, and it is more likely to be a good thing. But a new imitation that won't last too long, who would stuff something like this?

At this time, Pu Jie suddenly let out a "hey", and the three of them looked at him together, "What have you figured out?"

"I thought of the worst-case scenario. Pu Jie then sighed, "If it was to absorb water or something, and you forgot to take it out of the paper, it would be too boring." ”
