Chapter Seventy-Four: You've Been Cheated
It's like a jade tripod the size of a pen holder.
With the traces of dusty history, the volume is not large, but the texture pattern appears very exquisite, Ding Shang has two ears, and Dingyuan is engraved with 32 inscriptions a week.
Chen Luoping's heart was a little burning and apprehensive.
To be honest, he was impulsive this time, but if this thing wasn't a blow, I'm afraid he really didn't have the guts.
Now calm down and think about it carefully, it is indeed expensive to buy, but there is no turning back when opening the bow.
I can only say that I will find some friends to help me see how this thing is doing.
He soon thought of Li Botong, who was a good friend and had a little study of Yuding.

β¦β¦
At the moment, I just drove back to my home parking lot.
The more Li Botong thought about it, the more he felt, "Hey, you said that fortune teller, why is he so arrogant!"
Park your car and pull on the handbrake.
He unbuckled his seat belt and said angrily: "I can't stand it, those people really have bubbles in their brains, and they actually explained it to him!"
Chen Yehua, a friend next to him, said with a smile: "These days, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, it's like this!"
"Besides, the old man trusts this thing a lot, and the key is that people are clever!"
"Think about it, the bigger the shelf, the more awesome it looks like!"
"I won't charge the money when I turn around, just wait for you to come to the door yourself, and I'll carry it up if I don't want to. β
"If this happens to be right for him, then the guest will definitely think that he is a thief. β
Li Botong shook his head with a mocking smile, "It's the same, that's the reason!"
So the two got out of the car, and at this time, his mobile phone suddenly rang, and the remark was [Chen Luoping].
He didn't hesitate either, because both of them lived in this neighborhood.
I met by chance in the antique street, and when I came back to the parking lot, I became acquainted with each other.
"Hello?"
Chen Luoping's voice came out from inside: "Hey Brother Li, don't you be at home, bring you something to see!"
Li Botong said with a smile: "What good things?"
"A jade tripod!" Chen Luoping replied.
Li Botong: "Okay, I just arrived home!"
Chen Luoping: "Okay, I'll see you later!"
Hung up with a beep.
"What's the matter, Lao Luo is looking for you?" asked Chen Ye Huaxiao with interest.
"That's right, he's addicted enough, and he got another jade tripod and said let me see it!" Li Botong took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket.
Crack and light a cigarette!
Li Botong suddenly laughed jokingly: "Let's go, go to my house and wait, see what jade tripod you bought." β
In this way, the two of them took the elevator directly from the negative floor.
It's about twenty minutes.
Ding-dong.
The doorbell rings.
They knew that Lao Luo must have come, so they walked over and opened the door.
Sure enough, Chen Luoping was holding a box, "Brother Li, you really have to check for me, this thing smashed all my pocket money this year." β
"What a jade tripod, it's worth the risk you take!"
In this way, they also came to the balcony, which was a flowerbed balcony built by Li Botong at his expense, with a coffee table specially designed to entertain friends.
They opened the box with great interest, and were finally able to see the legendary jade tripod.
Chen Luoping's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, although the other party was not an expert, but how to say that he had been mixing longer than himself, and he would definitely be able to say something if he was well-informed.
Whewββ
Li Botong gasped and took out a set of his tools from the study.
Includes a glove magnifying glass, and a notebook of your own.
"This rust is very thick and deep, some years old, and the whole body is relatively even, if it is an old imitation, then this is also a high-end product. β
"Yuding is more famous in the Han Dynasty, a few days ago experts firmed up a few, like this so small, genuine is also hundreds of thousands of millions. β
"But I'll be honest, Lao Luo, you shouldn't make such a mistake!"
Hearing this, Chen Luoping's heart suddenly stabbed and was broken.
"During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Han Dynasty, and the jade tripod of the Warring States period were relatively common, and I will give you an analysis and analysis, and you will know. β
Li Botong is very professional and said slowly: "Every dynasty has obvious characteristics, the Shang and Zhou Dynasty Ding, the ornamentation is hideous, the shape of the vessel is dignified, the craftsmanship is exquisite, it represents power and rituals, it is profound." β
"The waist and legs are a characteristic of Chu Ding!"
ββ¦β¦β
"You see, none of these characteristics are there, and your Ding is obviously not from these two dynasties. β
"How much did you spend?"
He raised his head and looked at Chen Luoping, wondering how much money the other party spent on this jade tripod.
Chen Luoping swallowed a mouthful of water, and said with some trepidation: "Eight, eighty thousand!"
All of a sudden.
Li Botong and Chen Yehua glanced at each other, and they both had a feeling of being a dog, and almost thought that they had heard it wrong.
"Oh my god, 80,000 yuan!"
Li Botong was shocked, and asked with a look of disbelief in his eyes: "Why? What do you like about this jade tripod?"
Chen Luoping gritted his teeth and said: "I've checked it all, it's true that the jade tripod is not from these periods, but if you look at his runes, it took me two months to find out the origin, which is an ancient civilization character from 2800 BC." β
"In other words, he is a product that is earlier than our Shang Dynasty, and even the Xia Dynasty, the first dynasty in our history!"
When he said this, Chen Luoping's eyes flashed with irrepressible excitement.
Chen Luoping said very boldly: "The main reason why I judge this way is because these runes are correct, and the only thing I am worried about is his fraud. β
"Because once it's fake, it doesn't really matter what age it is. β
"But I've studied it for a long time, and there are no traces of counterfeiting in this jade tripod, and the most important thing is that it gives me a very ancient atmosphere. β
"There are very few collections of ancient civilization relics, so there is also a lack of good comparisons. β
"I originally thought that I would take it for about 40,000 yuan, but then two more people came, and when they came in, they set their eyes on this jade tripod and grabbed it with me. β
"This back and forth, it was forced to rise to this price. β
Li Botong smelled a hint of something wrong, and he immediately blurted out: "You tell me carefully!"
In this way, Chen Luoping told his own experience, including his many visits to study Yuding, and when he was about to bargain to buy it, a competitor appeared.
After listening, Li Botong sighed and glanced at Chen Yehua again.
Both of them had a feeling of crying and laughing.
"Lao Luo, you have been deceived!"
"If I'm not mistaken, the owner of the store you went to saw that you wanted to buy, and you went to see the goods too many times, which is the most taboo in the industry!"
"The more nervous you behave, the more you care, the higher the price will be!"
"If you come to the door four or five times, people will know that you want it, so they deliberately collude to find someone to come and raise the price with you and force you to buy it. β
"And it can be sold at a good price, after all, only good goods are contested. β
"Don't believe it, you said that he wrote a 74,000 yuan in the end, which is a naked hoax. β
Li Botong rubbed his temples, took a sip of tea and said with a wry smile: "You have already raised the price by 5,000 every time you shouted before, haven't you noticed?"
"Since this is the case, how can it be possible to write seventy-four thousand, at least seventy-five thousand. β
"The only explanation is that people see that you want to offer 75,000 yuan, so they are 1,000 yuan less than you, so they will sell it to you properly. β
"You're good, and you reported 80,000. β
After Chen Luoping heard this, he was stunned.
His head was buzzing, and he collapsed on the chair.
He shook his head: "No, no, this Jade Ding is definitely not that simple, and it may not be a scam!"
"This jade tripod is different from the old methods in the current market!"
"I judge that he is genuine, but the age cannot be determined!"
Chen Luoping gritted his teeth and still didn't want to believe that he had been deceived like this, the reason why he bought this jade tripod was because he thought it was a very collectible antique.
Even if no one robs him, he will still buy it.
"I'll have to find an expert to test it out. β
looked at Chen Luoping talking to himself over there, nervous.
Li Botong and Chen Yehua were a little worried, this was obviously because they were in a bad mood after being deceived.
They can actually understand that being cheated of 80,000 yuan so alive is probably difficult for anyone to accept.
But the antiques market is already full of deceit.
Li Botong whispered to Chen Yehua: "What should I do, I feel that he is getting deeper and deeper!"
"Actually, it's okay to leave him in suspense, after all, he bought everything!" Chen Yehua sighed.
Li Botong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he had an idea: "Why don't you let him find that fortune teller." β
"It's good to divert his attention, otherwise he will be depressed if he keeps thinking about it!"
So he opened his mouth and smiled: "That old Luo, I heard that there is a fortune teller on Changchangling West Street who is very awesome, and recently people are looking for this person who has the ability to appreciate ancient cultural relics and the talent of cultural relics restorer." β
"If you don't go back, let's go and calculate a hexagram, after all, when you eat this bowl of rice, sometimes you have to look at luck and fate!"
Chen Yehua also grinned and said, "Yes, yes, yes." β
Chen Yehua whispered in Li Botong's ear again: "When the time comes, he will be kicked out, let's just scold the fortune teller together, let him vent his emotions, it is best to put Yuding at home to ease up, and it will be fine in half a month." β
"Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't be able to accept this fact for a while. β
In this way, the two began to tout, fooling Chen Luoping to let the other party calculate a hexagram.
