285 Second antique
Zhou Qiang didn't want to expose his knowledge of treasure appreciation, after all, it would be reminiscent of the existence of "Relic Technique".
However, you can't choke on food.
He urgently needed to earn enough money now to maintain his ancient martial arts cultivation, as well as the strength enhancement of the two special physique people he focused on cultivating, Zhao Rouge and Chu Tangtang.
What's more, his arsenal film and television group also needs start-up capital to maintain daily operations, so as to become a hen that lays golden eggs in the future. This is the early stage of entrepreneurship, and many places have to spend money. And when the company is operating normally and begins to make profits, Zhou Qiang will be able to obtain abundant capital replenishment every year, and he will no longer need to come out and work hard, so he can devote his main energy to cultivation.
Therefore, the act of earning start-up capital for the arsenal group can be described as "sharpening the knife without cutting firewood".
In addition, Zhou Qiang already had a vague idea in his heart, and he felt that it didn't matter whether it would attract the suspicion of the mastermind behind the scenes. What matters most now is undoubtedly the improvement of one's own strength, and everything else can be put aside for the time being.
The antique dealer was triumphant, constantly sneering, venting his anger at Zhou Qiang, who was "hugging left and right", and venting his dissatisfaction with people who were richer than himself, as if earning 600 was a big victory.
"Don't be angry, that kind of person is really sick in the brain and is neurotic. Zhao Rouge was worried that Zhou Qiang's mentality would be unbalanced, so he smiled and comforted, "The hatred of the rich mentality is nothing, many people have it, but 99% of it is very slight, just a little envy and jealousy, and this mentality can also evolve into the motivation for struggle, so it is not an evil emotion." But this antique dealer is obviously psychologically distorted. His hatred of the rich evolved into deceiving the rich, but he forgot that he was also breaking the law and committing crimes. It's a pity that the rule of the antique circle is that the baby will bear the consequences if he leaves, so we can't call the police. ”
Chu Tangtang pouted: "We are not local tyrants, Wei Liang and Wei Ji are rich and unkind bastards, but he went up to the pole to stammer." This kind of person is really wonderful!"
"It's just a matter of bullying the weak and fearing the hard. Zhou Qiang smiled faintly, his expression was as usual, "Besides, the Wei family is also a second-rate family in Yanjing, and the two brothers often come to the City God Temple, and the antique dealers with a little eyesight should all know each other." In order to cling, this antique dealer naturally does everything to disgust us. This kind of worship is commonplace anywhere in the world. ”
"Alright. Zhou Qiang said, "Let's not fall for it, look for antiques." Next, we have to win beautifully! Fang Senyan took Wei Liang and Wei Ji to find fault, and proposed this 10 million gamble, just to find my bad luck, push me into the abyss little by little, and avenge his aunt. Since this is the case, then I will do what I do, and I will beat them upside down, so that they will bleed profusely, and lose money and lose face!"
"Okay, come on!" Chu Tangtang clenched his fists tightly, cheering Zhou Qiang up with vitality.
"But ......" Zhao Rouge swallowed his saliva and said depressedly, "Fang Senyan's bastard seized the loopholes in the rules, and as soon as he came up, he gave our first antique to the ground." It was an 18 yuan plastic imitation craft, and nothing could compare to it. ”
The corners of Zhou Qiang's lips curled up in a playful arc, but he didn't say much.
18 bucks???
Scold...... The truth will be revealed soon, and when the time comes, it will be sure to surprise Fang Senyan and the antique dealer's eyes.
"It doesn't matter. Chu Tangtang said confidently, "As long as you can really find an antique, it is enough to win the Wei brothers." The value of a good antique is better than too many inferior goods. Therefore, as long as Brother Zhou Qiang can identify one, he can win steadily. ”
"He?" Zhao Rouge pursed his lips in annoyance, "You have also seen his ability, and he spent 600 yuan to buy an 18 yuan plastic thing." You can't tell the difference between plastic and jadeite, what can you expect? Tangtang, you have been born in a wealthy Chu family since you were a child, and your eyesight is very strong, in my opinion, this matter has to fall on you! We all rely on you!"
"Me?" Chu Tangtang shook his little head into a rattle, "I only know a little bit about the appraisal of antiques, because I was quite interested in jewelry when I was a child. If you really let me go to the treasure appraisal, I'm afraid I'll be tricked around. ”
Zhao Rouge was dumbfounded, the two guys in front of him were both guys with a bottle of less than half a bottle, but Zhou Qiang spent a lot of money and directly shouted out a big gamble of 10 million!
"Who said I can't come?" Zhou Qiang touched his nose and smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, that antique dealer has bad eyesight, he smugly feels that he will sell a fake for 600 yuan, haha, there will be a time when he regrets his green intestines in the future." ”
Zhao Rouge suddenly turned his anger into joy, and grabbed the jade paperweight in the palm of his hand: "Really? This thing is not plastic?"
Zhou Qiang smiled and said nothing, didn't distinguish with her anymore, and then walked directly to the inside of an ancient sword shop, and looked at a Japanese *** with exquisite workmanship.
"Welcome, we have a collection of weapons from all over the world, including bronze swords from the Warring States period of our country, *** from Japan, as well as ***** from the Persian Empire, other guns, swords, halberds, etc., are also available. "The owner came up to sell it quite enthusiastically. After all, the man who is accompanied by a beautiful woman is naturally a gentleman, which is the general understanding of the whole society.
Zhao Rouge and Chu Tangtang were very uncomfortable, because the shopkeeper looked at them as if he was looking at Xiao San.
"OK, I won't sell it anymore, how much does this thing cost?" Zhou Qiang pointed bluntly to a more rusted *** placed at the entrance position.
It had broken and was temporarily glued together.
"Ouch, buddy has such a good eye!" The shopkeeper in the spirit of slaughtering fat sheep, immediately began to run the train with his mouth full, showing a look of embarrassment, "This thing is the treasure of my town store, it is a real thing with a big door opening! I'm sorry it can't be sold, because you know that for an antique shop that is open for business, there must be a few good things at the level of the treasure of the town store to attract customers and let customers see the ability of our store." However, these treasures are often just exhibitions, not for sale. ”
"I see. Zhao Rouge suddenly realized.
Zhou Qiang sneered and shook his head: "I said buddy, although I don't know much about the rules of your antique shop, you also fool me." Because I know basic logic, what you said is too unusual!"
The store manager was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to speak, but was directly interrupted by Zhou Qiang.
"First of all, if it's really the treasure of the town, it must not be placed so close to the door! If there is a slight mistake, you are bumped into it, or there is a thief who wants to take the sheep by the hand, and you will run away after taking this ***, and you will not have time to chase it! This is completely illogical. ”
"Secondly, if it is the treasure of the town, and now it is so corroded, why don't you find a master to clean it up, because the rust will continue to evolve, constantly damaging the essence of the ancient sword, and it must be eradicated as soon as possible. But you don't care, it can be seen that it is not worth anything at all. ”
"Third, the glue you used to stick it turned out to be the cheapest kind of wood glue for decoration, and I could smell the pungent formaldehyde smell from dozens of meters away. It's damaging to metal, so why would you abandon it?"
The store manager was immediately speechless, all smiles froze on his face, and he could only numbly pinch the small red clay stove for warming his hands to relieve the embarrassment a little.
"Hey, you're really a profiteer, just open your mouth, let's leave, I've already dealt with a profiteer, and I'm not interested in provoking a second one!" Zhao Rouge glared at the store manager in disgust, tugging at the corner of Zhou Qiang's clothes, and was about to leave.
Chu Tangtang also turned his head immediately, and he was not interested in saying more.
The store manager hurriedly laughed: "Dude, just kidding." You speak so professionally, of course I will give you a sincere price, please rest assured!"
Although he was very unhappy about being exposed by Zhou Qiang, but, when he opened the door to do business, of course he had to smile and welcome people, not to mention that the broken *** was too bad, and no one cared about it all the time, no, it was rusty. If no one wants it anymore, he'll have to wholesale it to the garbage pickers.
"My son wants it purely because I want to hang a dragon-killing sword on my villa. So, as long as it's an ancient sword, whether it's good or bad, the cheaper the better. Zhou Qiang pouted, "So, I fell in love with it in the worst condition in your store at a glance." ”
"I see. The store manager suddenly showed a bitter gourd face, and he also realized that there was nothing to make in this business.
"What is the Dragon Killing Sword?" Zhao Rouge asked curiously.
The store manager sighed and explained for Zhou Qiang: "Generally speaking, the decoration of your house should be some small pendants such as Pixiu, Qilin, and Golden Dragon that attract good luck or wealth. However, if the sword is suspended, it is to see where the sword is headed. Obviously, this gentleman is trying to rob a neighbor of his good fortune and make them unlucky. It seems that your neighborhood is not very good. ”
"We have a ghost neighbor!" Zhou Qiang is obviously talking nonsense and bluffing people. Zhao Rouge rolled his eyes in his heart.
Zhou Qiang cocked his thumb: "Your Excellency the store manager is very knowledgeable." ”
"However, if the quality of the dragon killing sword is better, even if it has been on the ancient battlefield and opened with human blood, the effect will be even more powerful! The neighbor it points at will not only be unlucky, but also more likely to have a bloody disaster! Don't you choose a few good ones?" The store manager rolled his eyes and began to try to sell again.
Zhou Qiang smiled faintly, shook his head and politely declined: "There is some disharmony and friction between neighbors, and it is just a matter of killing their arrogance." Why do you have to make a fuss to the point of not dying, and you must use the best ancient sword to completely cut off people's fortunes?"
"It turns out that our ancestors also have this kind of dark side. Chu Tangtang looked suddenly awake, as if he had met antiques and ancestors for the first time in his life.
"Okay, I'll pay 5,000 yuan, and you can find me another 112 yuan, and you will be considered to have bought it for 4888, how about it?"
“…… It's okay!" As soon as he heard that it could be sold for 5,000, the store manager couldn't help but be overjoyed, and felt that it was quite fair, so he directly took out a box and asked Zhou Qiang to put it in it.
"Do you really want to buy it?" Zhao Rouge pushed Zhou Qiang for a moment, his face full of vigilance.
After all, according to the rules, this means that Zhou Qiang bought the second antique than the trial.
Zhao Rouge was very worried that Zhou Qiang would lose in the hands of Wei Liang and Wei Ji. Because he's just tossing around, and he's not picking a good thing in a proper way.
Zhou Qiang smiled slightly, and said to the boss: "Check out!"
