Meng Zitao put away his phone and returned to his seat.

Li Wei asked, "Teacher Meng, do you have a job?"

Meng Zitao smiled: "A friend invited me to participate in a treasure appreciation activity tomorrow. ”

Li Wei was very interested in this: "I don't know where the treasure appreciation activity is held, can I go and see it?"

Meng Zitao replied: "It is a small treasure appreciation activity held by Shudu TV Station, and the authentic products participating in the appraisal have the opportunity to be on the TV program and receive a certificate of merit through the competition." It's okay to go if you want, but don't go on to buy antiques. ”

"Oh. Li Wei nodded, and thought of a question: "Teacher Meng, what's the matter with the fakes in those treasure appreciation programs? If it were me, I would definitely not let myself be embarrassed by the fakes." ”

Meng Zitao said: "I only know that there are two kinds, one is to shoot the show directly at the time of identification, if you want to participate in the appraisal, you must agree to broadcast it in the show, and the other is to invite extras." ”

Li Wei suddenly said: "This is what people often say." ”

"Actually, it's not a trust. Meng Zitao smiled and said in his heart, the real Tuo Ke is much more powerful than this.

For example, in the auction, they can see the mood of the buyer, know which lot still has room to rise, so they will raise the price. Maybe they will miss, but it will only be a left-handed upside down to a right-handed, and there is basically not much loss.

This kind of trick basically exists in every auction, and the auction organized by Meng Zitao is no exception, which is a marketing method in the market, for Meng Zitao, as long as he can ensure that there is no problem with the auctioned lots, he has a clear conscience.

Full of wine and food, Meng Zitao saw that Li Lunqiao wanted to speak and stopped, and asked with a smile: "Master Li, if there is anything, you can just say it." ”

Li Lunqiao said with some embarrassment: "When the fourth master left just now, let me ask you if you can help identify antiques." If you can, when he's eaten, bring the stuff. ”

Meng Zitao still thought it was something, and said with a smile: "This is just a trivial matter, you just let him bring it." ”

Li Lunqiao hurriedly expressed his gratitude, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was not thick-skinned, and he was most afraid of begging others, let alone a great expert like Meng Zitao.

Li Lunqiao hurriedly went to call the old man over, and about ten minutes later, in addition to him and the old man, there were five or six villagers, two of whom brought old objects, and the rest came to see the excitement.

Li Lunqiao was actually quite apprehensive in his heart, for fear that Meng Zitao would be unhappy, but let him refuse the villagers, he was not very easy to open his mouth, after all, in a village, everyone looked down and didn't look up.

Meng Zitao didn't care about this, and this is also a normal thing, when he was a child, there was an acrobatic performance in the village, three layers inside and three layers outside, if a star came, it is estimated that as long as the village knows, most of them will go to join in the fun.

Meng Zitao asked everyone to identify in order, it was still early, there was time, and everyone nodded yes.

The first to identify was of course the fourth chef, who put all the things he brought on the table, and then explained the origin of these things.

"These things are handed down by my ancestors, my grandfather was also a cook at the beginning, but he is much more powerful than me, he often cooks for some dignitaries, and there are rewards for doing well, most of these things were rewarded to my grandfather, and I don't know how much they are worth. There is a chance today, please ask Mr. Meng to help take a look, so as not to spoil the baby. ”

"It's not easy for old objects to be passed down to the present, and they really should be preserved, so I'll show you now. ”

Meng Zitao nodded with a smile, and then checked.

Generally speaking, unless it is a relative of the emperor, even if you want to reward the cook, it is unlikely to be a good thing, and these few things that the old man brought over are this kind of performance, except for one, they are basically gadgets of a little bit of value, some collection value, and the market value is not too high.

There is no surplus of the next one but it is a good thing, the exquisite ball made of ivory, the surface of the outer ball is embossed with various floral ornaments, and the inner ring of the ball is carved with large and small beads, and each ball can move in order. Its carving is exquisite, the technique is special, not ordinary people can do, it belongs to the fine art of ivory carving.

Meng Zitao explained the value of several things to the old man in detail, and the old man suddenly said: "This ball was actually given by a traveler rescued by my grandfather, and it is really the most valuable! Mr. Meng, I don't know how much these things are worth?"

Meng Zitao thoughtfully wrote the price on a piece of paper and handed it to the old man, after all, Chinese people like to be rich and not exposed.

The old man took the blank paper that recorded the quotation and looked at it, his face immediately bloomed, and the villagers next to him saw this situation and wanted to come over and peek, but the old man quickly hid the paper and scolded with a smile.

A villager in his thirties next to him, whose hair was almost covering his eyes, said with a smile: "Fourth master, it's useless for you to hide, look at your happy appearance, you must have made a lot of money, I watch an antique on TV cost tens of millions at every turn, and your few things should not be much less." ”

The old man scolded with a smile: "Fang Zong, you kid is talking nonsense, if it is really worth tens of millions, I will not cook from today on." ”

Fang Zong hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't, if those bosses know, they will have to pick my skin!"

"I wish those bosses could come and pick your skin, and make the village one less scourge!" the old man laughed again, and ignored him.

Meng Zitao opened his mouth and said: "Uncle, I have to remind you, because of the law, this ivory product cannot be auctioned, and can only be communicated privately. ”

"That's it!" the old man frowned, the meaning of the private communication was nothing more than to lower the price, but this was also a helpless thing, even if he was not happy, he could only accept it.

Meng Zitao smiled and said: "But if you want to deal with it, you can leave it to me to deal with, although I can't guarantee you, but the price will definitely not be low." ”

When the old man heard this, he became happy again, and said, "If I want to sell it in the future, I will definitely look for you." ”

Originally, the old man wanted to give Meng Zitao an appraisal fee, but he was pushed away by Meng Zitao, and he ate people softly.

After briefly talking to the old man about a few maintenance points to pay attention to, Meng Zitao began to identify the next thing, and the old man hurriedly took the things back, after all, it added up to hundreds of thousands of things, and it was much more reassuring to take them home. And the young man named Fang Zong also followed a little sneakily.

The next two villagers brought things were worthless things, in fact, this is the situation in the countryside now, there are really good things, they have long been scraped by the shovels, and the probability of leaving good things is very small.

After everything was appraised, Meng Zitao prepared to go back to the city and said goodbye to Li Lunqiao and his son.

After getting into the car, Meng Zitao thought about it, and always felt that there was something wrong with Fang Fuxin's family, so he called his colleagues and asked them to investigate the father and son, maybe there would be some unexpected discoveries.

PS: Today's stomach is a little more comfortable, but the spirit is worse than yesterday, and the code is a little bit hard, so let's do it first. If it's more comfortable tomorrow, I'll try to resume normal updates first, and everyone thinks that the update is slow during this time, so you can raise it first, and wait for a while to see it.
