Lao Yang said what happened, and said to the store with a calm face: "Did I fabricate the facts just now?

The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth lifted slightly, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and the answer was self-evident. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The attitude of the shopkeeper made Lao Yang half angry, and he was about to raise his voice to fight the male, Meng Zitao pulled him aside and persuaded him softly: "Old Yang, the other party's current attitude, it is no different to say more, I think it is still possible to return as much as possible." ”

"But he wants eight thousand, how can there be such a reason?" said Lao Yang angrily.

Meng Zitao asked rhetorically: "Then let me ask you, did you know him before, and have you heard of what kind of character he is?"

"Uh......" Lao Yang was speechless, in the final analysis, he was indeed too gullible to trust others.

Of course, there is, but most of them happen in places with high liquidity, such as stalls.

As for the antique shops that are open to welcome customers, even if the store wants to play tricks, they will not joke with their reputation, and if they ruin their reputation, it is equivalent to cutting off their own financial routes.

In the past, Meng Zitao heard of such a real story, saying that a certain shopkeeper went to the countryside to get the goods, and got a Huanghuali official hat chair in the early Qing Dynasty, due to disrepair, one leg of the chair was broken, so the shopkeeper found someone to repair it, and became the goods for climbing the mountain, which was temporarily placed at home by him.

The shopkeeper's nephew was also a companion, and one day he went to his house to play, and when he saw this chair, he fell in love with it at a glance, and asked the shopkeeper to give him the chair.

The shopkeeper agreed without saying a word, and the price was actually given according to the price of the complete device.

The nephew happily took the chair back, and when he was about to make a move, after being instructed by the master, he found a problem, and the other party was his own uncle, although he was angry, he could only pinch his nose and admit it.

In the end, the matter spread, and everyone felt that the shopkeeper was too inauthentic, and that he could do such a thing to his nephew, and he could still get it to other customers.

It can also be seen from this story that the importance of making antique reputation, you can be smart, but when you suffer a loss in the future, then don't complain.

This truth is actually obvious, but some people just don't understand, or they don't take it seriously, because money is more important in their eyes, and for this kind of person, they can only hide away.

Meng Zitao can imagine what the business of this store will be like from today onwards.

Lao Yang was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "Anyway, if you want me to give 8,000, I won't do it, if it doesn't work, I'll make a fuss, and I will pay 48,000." ”

Meng Zitao said: "Don't be so excited, let's talk about it." ”

The two walked back, and Meng Zitao said: "Shopkeeper, we don't want a full refund, let's all make a step and leave you a thousand?"

The shopkeeper shook his head: "No, if my friend doesn't want to return, then won't I lose?"

"What about two thousand?"

"No, it doesn't. ”

"Then how much do you want?" Lao Yang was a little breathless and asked.

The shopkeeper was silent for a while: "I can make the decision to reduce the thousand, or change the solution." ”

Lao Yang originally wanted to sneer, but when he heard the turn in the back, he asked, "What's the solution?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "This method is also simple, you only need to take no less than 48,000 yuan of goods in my store." ”

Lao Yang smiled: "You think about the beauty, is your thing here worth forty-eight thousand yuan?"

Meng Zitao looked around, all the porcelain in this shop was placed, and when he looked at it, he saw a dazzling array of plum bottles, general jars, pen holders, incense burners, vases, blue and white, multicolored, pastel, monochrome glaze, etc., which can be found here.

But as Lao Yang said, the things here can only fool the layman, Mencius can see at a glance that most of the porcelain is modern handicrafts and fakes, as for the remaining part, there are a few old goods, but they all seem to be worthless.

The other part is just because of the distance and the light is not very clear, but just because the store puts them in the room, I know that it will not be a good thing.

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Anyway, my words will be placed here, either you leave 7,000, or you take 48,000 goods, there are only these two choices, you can do it." ”

In the end, the shopkeeper saw Meng Zitao looking at him with a smile, and those two eyes seemed to see through himself inside and out, so that he didn't dare to look at Meng Zitao.

Lao Yang listened to the store's proposal and sneered: "It's a good idea for you to come, do you want the shopkeeper Meng to help you see for free, what is missing in the store?"

The shopkeeper was exposed to his old background, and he was not angry, and said lightly: "You guys hurry up and decide, it's not too early, I have to go back to eat." ”

Lao Yang gritted his teeth: "Okay, seven thousand is seven thousand, give money!"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was still a little disappointed in his heart, but now he definitely can't go back on his word, so he can only give the remaining 40,000 to Lao Yang.

Lao Yang counted the money, and when he saw that there was no problem, he was ready to leave with Meng Zitao.

"Do you accept old goods here?" At this time, suddenly a young man holding a jar walked in briskly from outside the door.

Meng Zitao's eyes lit up slightly when he saw the jar in the young man's hand, and he knew at first glance that this porcelain should be an old item.

So, Meng Zitao preemptively said: "This gentleman, are you planning to sell this thing?"

"Nonsense, I didn't just say it all. The young man said angrily.

Meng Zitao smiled: "Then can you show me?"

"This ......"

The shopkeeper immediately interrupted the young man's words: "Slow, shopkeeper Meng, please pay attention to what kind of place this is, I hope you don't turn against customers." ”

Meng Zitao shrugged his shoulders: "Sir, can we go out and see again, as long as the things are good, the price is negotiable." ”

The shopkeeper said angrily: "Shopkeeper Meng, do you understand the rules?!"

Lao Yang suddenly smiled: "Someone actually mentions the rules now, I know how thick his skin is." ”

"You ......" the shopkeeper pointed at Lao Yang, but he really didn't keep his promise before, how can he justify it now.

Seeing the tension between the two sides, the young man rolled his eyes and said, "Let's look at things here, you guys are quick, I'm still in a hurry." ”

The young man put the jar he was holding on the side shelf, took out a jade pendant from his pocket, and put it next to the jar.

Meng Zitao's eyes were quick, he walked forward quickly, picked up the jar and admired it, although the store was angry, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't get his hands on it, if the jar accidentally fell, it would be troublesome.

This is a Zhuang jar, Zhuang jar is a popular jar type in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the shape is a straight mouth, folded shoulders, barrel abdomen, abdomen folded inward, with a lid, mouth and foot diameter are equal.

This kind of strong jar was created in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty and has been imitated in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, from Xuande to the Qianlong period, this kind of strong jar is basically produced by the official kiln, which is a standard vessel of the official kiln, and it does not carry a paragraph, which is often said to be a "non-money official kiln".

The specific characteristics are that the glaze of the products in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty is moist, and the glaze layer of the imitation products in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty is uniform.

Like this kind of porcelain, at the end of the nineties of the last century, in the auctions organized by several major auction companies in China, it often appeared, and the transaction price also increased from one or two hundred thousand yuan at the beginning to seventy or eighty thousand yuan at the beginning of the century, and then the price became higher and higher, which was very popular in the market.

However, in all the auctions, many of these strong jars are from the Qianlong period, Yongxuan and Chenghua periods, which are quite rare.

As soon as the Zhuang jar in front of him got his hands on it, Meng Zitao knew that it should be the official kiln of Chenghua, and the number of hand-me-downs was quite rare, and there were only a handful of similar collections in museums around the world.

This Zhuang jar is short and stout, the neck is painted with Ruyi cloud head pattern, the foot is painted with grass pattern, the main pattern of the abdomen is decorated with a tangled branch lotus pattern, the main pattern has symmetrical zigzag patterns and wave patterns above and below, and a total of seven layers of ornamentation from the mouth to the foot, which is similar to the collection of the Yongle period of the Forbidden City, but it is different......
