055: Plum blossom pen holder
It turned out that Yang Linlin took a fancy to a plum blossom pen holder with a simple shape, and after asking, she found that the price was a bit expensive, but she really liked it, and she didn't want to hesitate to be preempted, which made her very dissatisfied.
When you look around, you find that the plum blossom pen holder is carved from ordinary mahogany. The barrel body is shallow carved plum blossoms, the delicate knife technique makes the poetry and painting on the utensils in the eyes, the simplicity is elegant, the plain is interesting, if there are poems to match, it is definitely a boutique.
Rao is so, the artistic value of this tube is also quite extraordinary. If the two of them don't want it, Zhou You is willing to buy it at a high price.
Even people like Zhou You, who don't have much research on pen holders, like it at first sight, let alone Yang Linlin.
At this time, the man in the suit who took the lead also replied politely: "If you hesitate, it proves that you can't see it accurately, and I don't even have to make a counteroffer to buy it directly, is there a problem with this? If you hesitate forever, then won't I be able to buy it?"
I have to say that this man's ability to refute is quite good.
Yang Linlin was not discouraged, and asked: "Do you understand the rules of the ghost market! If you don't even know the most basic unspoken rules, I think you should not come here, go home and study." ”
The man in the suit immediately shot back: "What era is it now, and I still pay attention to those old rules." I didn't expect you to be so young, and your mind is so old, it seems that you have learned to assimilate yourself from antiques. ”
The words of the man in the suit are really vicious, and every sentence hides needles.
"You!"
Yang Linlin was obviously the first time to meet such an unkind man as a man in a suit, and she was speechless for a while.
Xu Jie finally stood up and said coldly: "I can ignore other places, but this is a ghost market, and it must be carried out according to the unspoken rules of the ghost market." If you don't know each other yet, then I won't reason with you anymore. ”
Before Xu Jie's words were finished, his bodyguard walked over with cold eyes.
"Don't ......"
The stall owner didn't expect the matter to be so big, and hurriedly said: "We don't want to cause trouble when we do business." In this way, both of you have a point, why don't you pay the highest price?"
The stall owner will take the chance.
"Good!"
"No problem!"
Yang Linlin and the man in the suit agreed.
To be honest, the man in the suit couldn't have imagined that Yang Linlin, a girl, would have so many flower messengers, and someone would stand up for him as soon as something happened, and he looked very embarrassed, so he didn't flinch in his heart. But he is not a person who is afraid of things, and he wants to fight for himself.
Yang Linlin said: "The boss offered 800 just now, then I'll pay 1,000, you can give me the things." ”
The man in the suit also said: "The knife skills of this pen holder are very sophisticated, delicate and delicate, extremely exquisite, and the layering of plum blossoms is vividly carved out, it is a rare boutique, and it is definitely a masterpiece in modern art, so I can't let it go to you, I will give you a thousand eight, I hope you don't fight with me." ”
Yang Linlin didn't expect that the other party was also an elegant person, and if she said it so well, she just didn't have a good temper.
After thinking about it, Yang Linlin continued to increase the price and said: "Since you and I are optimistic about this tube, we can only see whose psychological limit price is lower, and I will pay two thousand yuan." ”
The man in the suit was obviously not interested in this kind of competition, and said bluntly: "Since the beauties and women have said so, I will simply order, 5,000 yuan is my highest estimate, if you are higher, I will choose other things to give away." ”
"Five thousand dollars, you won. ”
When Yang Linlin heard the other party's price, she immediately smiled bitterly. She is not a rich second generation, nor is she an urban gold collar, she is just a small employee of a jade shop in Guangzhou, and it is impossible to casually take out 5,000 yuan to buy what she likes.
Xu Jie wanted to say something, but he stopped talking.
"This gentleman, I've wrapped everything for you!"
The stall owner almost didn't laugh out loud. What was only 800 yuan just now rose to 5,000 yuan in a blink of an eye, and this thing was exchanged for 100 yuan and a bottle of old wine from an old drunkard in the same village.
The man in the suit didn't say anything, he directly ordered 5,000 yuan to pay the stall owner, and then left with his things, without giving Xu Jie and others a chance to perform.
Yang Linlin glanced at Xu Jie and greeted very reluctantly: "Xu Jie, I haven't seen you for a long time, why haven't you come to our store to buy jade and give it away?"
Xu Jie replied: "My grandfather is back, so you can't run around." ”
"Oh. ”
Yang Linlin didn't seem to see Xu Jie's expectant look on his face, so she replied slightly, and continued to check the other pen holders on the stall.
This stall does have a lot of root carving works, most of which are very new, but the workmanship is very exquisite, and they are all very good modern crafts.
Wang Hao's mind was flexible, and he asked very proudly: "Boss, your root carvings are doing well, I wonder if you are interested in doing some wholesale business?"
Indeed, the root carving works can be regarded as works of art, different places have different styles of root carving art, which is a very important cultural heritage in our China, and the workmanship to this extent can definitely be regarded as a work of art. This kind of artwork is a good choice for elegant people who like classical culture but don't have much money.
"Wholesale?"
When the stall owner heard the word "wholesale," he immediately shook his head and hurriedly replied: "Yes, how could there be none! Many people in our village have been doing this business for their ancestors, but now they are playing with assembly operations and scale effects, and the sales of our ancestors are not very good, so there are fewer and fewer people doing it, and only some old guys are left to support the scene." ”
In recent years, Fujian, Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangsu and other provinces of the root carving art manufacturers have been increasing, the production of root art has formed a certain scale effect, and the creative level of root art has reached a new peak. However, the root carving art pays attention to "three points of artificial, seven points of nature", and the negative effect of the flow operation and scale effect is to make the natural taste lost, and the artistic value is slightly reduced.
But now, what appeared in front of them was a group of old root carvers who didn't live well, which was a great blessing for them.
Wang Hao also said simply: "In order to show our sincerity, we will wrap up the root carving works on your stall." Of course, since it's wholesale, you have to give us the wholesale price, otherwise we won't admit it. ”
"Of course, of course!"
The stall owner should be again and again.
From a street vendor to an art supplier, this change of identity is the best news for a stall owner. The plum blossom pen holder just now is just an accidental luck, it is difficult to meet the second one, and it is far less stable and profitable than doing wholesale trading.
Subsequently, Wang Hao happily talked with the stall owner about the wholesale business.
Jiang Jun laughed and said: "It's really yours, Wang Hao, you actually went to the ghost market to do wholesale business." If it gets out, it will definitely be a good story. ”
I didn't want Yang Linlin to remind: "In the ghost market to do wholesale business, you are not the first, let alone the last. A few months ago, the owner of a porcelain shop in Taiwan took a fancy to a stall owner's high-imitation porcelain and signed a wholesale contract with him overnight. By now, the stall owner had gone to the city center to open a sizable porcelain company, so that he didn't have to do business here. ”
Jiang Jun sighed: "There are talents everywhere, and there are opportunities everywhere." ”
Yang Linlin's mood seemed to be much better, and she said to Xu Jie: "Xu Jie, your friends are very interesting, much better than the boys I met before with the corners of their eyes." ”
"Thanks for the compliment!"
Wang Hao can still interject when communicating with the stall owner, and at the same time give Xu Jie a clear look.
Zhou You is not stupid, where can you see Xu Jie's abnormality. But he didn't expect that Xu Jie, who was a little arrogant, would have such a cute side, and he didn't expect that there should be many money worshippers around Xu Jie, and the woman he liked would be a type like Yang Linlin.
But thinking of this, Zhou You looked at Yang Linlin seriously.
Yang Linlin's age is very young, she will definitely not be older than herself, and she is full of youthful atmosphere. A pair of eyes are as clear and moving as crystals soaked in water, the slightly raised corners of her mouth reveal her cunning wisdom, and her thin tender lips are as light as water, but they can embellish the face that is not very beautiful.
Yang Linlin's beauty is a kind of smart and intelligent beauty.
Xu Jie observed Yang Linlin after seeing Zhou You after looking at himself, he didn't know his ghost thoughts, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Yang Linlin, let me introduce you, this scholar is called Zhou You angrily, the one who is talking about business is called Wang Hao, and this guy who likes to play cool is called Jiang Jun, they are all highly talented students majoring in archaeology, and each of them has missed it tonight." ”
"It's amazing!"
Yang Linlin has been here for so long, that is, she has only picked two or three small leaks, which has made her very satisfied and confident. I don't want Xu Jie's three friends to be cross-Jianglong, and when they come, everyone picks up the leak, and they really regard this place as an antique everywhere.
Xu Jie saw that Yang Linlin had a meaning, and hurriedly told them all about the encounters between them, and even the explanations of their travels, but Yang Linlin's eyes flashed when he heard it.
When Yang Linlin heard the end, she actually heard the name of enamel porcelain, and finally couldn't help asking: "Mr. Zhou, I don't know if I can let the little girl take a look at the legendary enamel porcelain?"
Zhou You replied very unceremoniously: "Still not." Let's not say that the environment here is not very suitable, let's just say that it is not sure whether it is enamel porcelain. Why don't you go back with us to meet the teacher, and wait for the teacher to give an evaluation, so you can observe carefully. ”
"Oh......"
Yang Linlin replied in disappointment.
Xu Jie couldn't imagine that Zhou You, who had always been careful, would be so faceless, and he looked at him fiercely, and the anxiety of his expression made Zhou You laugh in his heart.
Yang Linlin then replied: "It's a pity that I have to go to work in two hours, I'm afraid it's too late in terms of time." ”
Zhou You asked very abruptly: "Yang Linlin, where does your family live? Where is your company? Also, why did you run out of the ghost market alone at this time, is it too dangerous?"
Yang Linlin glanced at Zhou You, probably thinking that Zhou You was not a bad person with bad intentions, or maybe she was looking at Xu Jie's face and replied cautiously: "My aunt is over there, it won't take five minutes to walk over, and besides, I'm not the kind of weak and bullying little woman, I know martial arts." ”
Zhou You only remembered the first sentence, and the latter sentence was directly ignored.
Xu Jie said with great feeling: "Your home is here, but your place of work is in Tianhe, and it will take at least an hour and a half to take the bus, and if you are congested, I am afraid you will be late." ”
Yang Linlin was touched by Xu Jie's words, and couldn't stop nodding and said: "Yes, I sit very hard in the car every day, and it's a miracle that I, a woman with motion sickness, won't get motion sickness." ”
Xu Jie finally reacted and asked weakly: "Yang Linlin, if it's convenient, why don't you let me send you to work." ”
Yang Linlin glanced at Zhou You and the others out of the corner of her eye, and asked, "What about them?"
Xu Jie didn't think about it, so he replied: "Take the bus!"
The corners of the mouths and eyes of the three of them cramped at the same time.
