Chapter 47: A Chance Encounter
When waiting for the elevator, everyone happened to meet Zhu Dachang and his party passing by.
Zhu Dachang sneered: "Mr. Zhang, today's harvest is a little inconsistent with your identity, people who don't know, still think that something is wrong with you Mr. Zhang." ”
Zhang Jingqiang snorted: "Mr. Zhu can buy a 'baby' for such a big price, of course I sigh to myself!"
When he said the word "baby", he also accentuated his tone, and anyone who was smart could hear the meaning.
Zhu Dachang's heart suddenly burst when he heard this, and then he thought of Zhang Jingqiang's strange performance just now, and couldn't help but think in his heart, there would be no real problem with the Wen Wangding he had just bought, right?
Thinking of this, Zhu Dachang hurriedly gave Xue Wenguang beside him an inquiring look.
Xue Wenguang's heart was also in a mess, and he hurriedly recalled it carefully, and gradually settled down in his heart, and then gave Zhu Dachang a positive look.
Since the Wen Wang Ding was still waiting for him to receive it, after Zhu Dachang got the answer, he sneered a few words, and then left in a hurry with the others.
This short confrontation happened to be seen by Ding Zhiguo not far away, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, so he walked to Meng Zitao and the others with a smile.
After a few pleasantries, Ding Zhiguo asked: "Mr. Zhang, take the liberty of asking, I don't know what you think of the Wen Wang Ding just now?"
At this time, the elevator arrived, and when he got on the elevator, Zhang Jingqiang said with a smile: "I don't have such good eyesight." ”
Ding Zhiguo immediately understood, and when his gaze turned to Meng Zitao's face, he suddenly had a number in his heart.
Meng Zitao smiled: "Elder Ding, why don't we find a place to drink tea?"
Everyone understands people, and they know that when Meng Zitao said this, he just felt that it was not convenient here, and he was just looking for an excuse.
Ding Zhiguo immediately agreed with a smile.
Considering that the time was not early, everyone discussed it and simply found a place to have dinner, there are not many such opportunities, and everyone just took the opportunity to contact the feelings.
I found a restaurant with a good reputation nearby, and everyone asked for a private room, and they talked after ordering.
Just as he was about to talk about the problem of Wen Wang Ding, there was a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was Wang Zhixuan, and there were two people next to him, one of whom was no stranger to everyone, it was Ma Xingwei, who specialized in collecting furniture.
Everyone quickly stood up and said hello.
After the two of them took their seats, Cheng Qiheng asked, "Uncle Wang, why did you and Teacher Ma come here?"
Wang Zhixuan said helplessly: "Oh, I helped Lao Ma go to someone's house to see the furniture, but he encountered a mine and almost fell into it." ”
Laying a mine is a term for an antique dealer, which is not really a mine, but refers to a fraud in which an antique businessman sets a trap to cover up fake and fake goods in disguise in advance, creating all kinds of illusions to confuse people, and finally makes people deceived.
This kind of behavior is like planting a mine, waiting for the enemy to step on it, and as soon as you step on it, it will blow you up on your back. As a result, people with good deeds called this behavior the image of "planting mines", and over time, everyone called it the same.
It should be said that those who planted the mines were very skillful, and they put those specious "antiques" either in the homes of the landlords who had been beaten, or in the hands of poor middle peasants who had received benefits, and some of them in the homes of the children of the family.
At this time, the people who planted the mines will make an appointment with them, and if someone comes to ask how they should tell the story, how much it costs, and how to divide it, those mine households will of course be happy to sit back and enjoy it.
After the mines are laid, someone has to step on them, and only those who plant the mines will be profitable. So those people do everything they can to guide collectors or real antique dealers.
At this time, these people will, intentionally or unintentionally, reveal information, for example, there are good things in a certain place, but unfortunately the price cannot be lowered, and the other party's bid is too high. The high price they are talking about is often within the range that collectors can accept.
So the collector got excited and asked the man who buried the mine to lead the way. The person who planted the mine would often find a few reasons to excuse himself, and then listened to the collector's request, and seemed determined to stick a knife in his friend's ribs, "For my friend's sake, I'll accompany you." ”
So the person who planted the mine showed you the way, helped you identify, and helped you reduce the price, in this process, some people who buried the mine may also receive a call, and the phone has to let you hear a rough idea, the content is nothing more than missing the opportunity to buy and sell, or other buyers also take a fancy to the things here, because you are the first to get there, offending the other party.
When the collector saw it, he praised him as a friend in his heart, and in addition to thanking the person who buried the mine for leading the way, he also apologized in his heart, not to mention delaying his time, but also delaying his business, I'm really sorry, then give more hard money, or buy a few more things from him next time.
As everyone knows, the other party not only got a lot of benefits because you stepped on the landmine, but also got the money to lead the way. As for the collector, after being bombed, I still feel quite comfortable. It's really the rhythm of selling you and counting the money for the seller.
And Wang Zhixuan and Ma Xingwei encountered this matter today, the reason why they were almost fooled, firstly, the "landmine" is indeed realistic enough, and secondly, it is too familiar with the fiber, and the two did not expect that the other party would cooperate to lay mines to deceive them. Moreover, the other party actually planned to use strong means, and everyone felt thrilling when they heard it.
Wang Zhixuan recounted the previous encounter, and sighed: "Hey, if I hadn't seen that the guy in the room had something wrong with his eyes, and the evil aura on his body was too heavy, and he had a heart and let Xiao Zhao stand at the door, otherwise we might not be able to get out of the way today." ”
Xiao Zhao is the young man standing next to Ma Xingwei at this time, he is Ma Xingwei's bodyguard and driver, because Wang Zhixuan asked Xiao Zhao to stand at the door, the other party felt that it was likely to be impossible to stop Xiao Zhao, so he gave up the plan to force it and let the two escape.
After listening to Wang Zhixuan's story, everyone sighed, it seems that the next time I go back to dig out the house, or go to someone else's house to find a treasure, I have to have a long mind, otherwise I may accidentally fall into bad luck one day.
You know, over the years, many collectors' wallets have been blown away, and their confidence in collecting has been blown away, and they have even quit the antique industry since then.
After sighing with emotion, Wang Zhixuan asked: "By the way, didn't you go to the auction of foxes, why did you come here......?"
Wang Menghan said with a smile: "Dad, you really guessed right, that auction was held at the XX Hotel not far away." ”
Wang Zhixuan shook his head: "This fox is really powerful now. ”
At this time, Ma Xingwei sighed: "I was also invited before, and I knew that this would have happened, so I would have participated in the auction honestly." By the way, are there any treasures at this auction?"
Ding Zhiguo said: "There are still a lot of treasures, but there are basically few that can interest you." ”
Wang Zhixuan asked, "What is the finale?"
Ding Zhiguo said: "The cloisonne Wenwang Ding in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty has a height of more than 70 centimeters. ”
"Isn't it, a fox can actually take such a heavy weapon?" Ding Zhiguo's answer surprised both Wang Zhixuan and Ma Xingwei.
Zhang Jingqiang said with a smile: "If that thing is real, it is indeed a rare heavy weapon." ”
"According to what you mean, there's something wrong with that thing? This fox guy is inevitably going back more and more, and the finale lot actually dares to use fakes, and the reputation doesn't stink when it spreads?"
"Who knows?" Zhang Jingqiang shrugged his shoulders: "However, I don't see if there is a problem with that thing." ”
Seeing Zhang Jingqiang looking at Meng Zitao with a smile, Wang Zhixuan asked with some surprise: "Xiao Meng, did you see it?"
Meng Zitao laughed: "I was just lucky, and I happened to see a few suspicious places." ”
"I said Zitao, you are too modest, can your eyesight still rely on luck?" Cheng Qiheng smiled and pointed his finger at him, and then said: "You don't know, Zitao also picked up a big leak this time......"
Hearing Cheng Qiheng talk about the previous matter, Wang Zhixuan and the others were a little surprised, and hurriedly asked Meng Zitao to appreciate the pen holder.
"Okay, it's not easy to pick up a big leak at this kind of auction, and it's really impressive. ”
After looking at the pen holder, Wang Zhixuan smiled, seeing that the young people he admired could make such progress, he was very happy, and even the unhappiness he encountered just now diluted a lot.
On the other side, Ma Xingwei couldn't put it down and played with the pen holder, so he asked Meng Zitao if he had any plans to transfer it, and of course Meng Zitao politely refused.
Then, everyone began to discuss the matter of Wen Wangding again.
After listening to Wang Menghan's description of Wen Wangding's appearance, Wang Zhixuan said: "It's a pity, we didn't see the real thing, if there was a comparison of the real thing, it would be good." ”
Ding Zhiguo said: "There is no physical object, but I have a video here." ”
Ding Zhiguo's words made everyone stunned, and they really couldn't understand why Ding Zhiguo thought of recording this auction. Besides, the inspection of the auction is actually very strict, but everyone didn't pay attention to it, and if someone was found to be videotaped, with Huli's character, it would not be so easy to let go.
Seeing the doubt in everyone's eyes, Ding Zhiguo said lightly: "Hu Li was still more cautious at the beginning, and he was also playing side balls before, so it was nothing. It's just that in the past two years, this guy's ambition has been a little big, and what he has done is a little out of line. ”
After listening to Ding Zhiguo's words, everyone immediately reacted that it should be that what Hu Li is doing now is out of line and has attracted the attention of some people, so Ding Zhiguo was asked to go out and look for evidence.
