The next morning, Meng Zitao was about to leave for the hotel where the fair was held, when he received a call from investigators, which turned out to be both unexpected and reasonable. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After investigation, the person Zhao Jia knew was not actually Cao Jin, but someone pretended to be him, and this person was the son of Liang Youhai, a collector in the copper capital.

Liang Youhai was still Cao Jin's good friend at the beginning, but later Cao Jin deceived him, and they broke off contact and formed a feud.

And the reason why Liang Youhai's son will pretend to be Cao Jin is because Liang Youhai died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage at the beginning of this year. So he wanted to find Cao Jin for revenge.

It's just that at this time, Cao Jin has already started his plan to deceive the whole country, how could Liang Youhai's son find him.

Liang Youhai's son was unwilling, and while asking his friends to look for Cao Jin, he tried to find a way by himself, and finally came up with a bad idea, to make Cao Jin's name stink as much as possible, and it was best to be able to do it to the point where everyone shouted and beat him, and it was likely that Cao Jin could be forced out.

When Meng Zitao heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, Liang Youhai's son has watched too many brain-dead TV series, he actually came up with such an idea, he didn't want to think about it, he didn't look like Cao Jin, what's the point of pretending to be Cao Jin?

As for the reason why Liang Youhai's son brought out Meng Zitao again this time, it was not intentional, but Zhao Jia asked him if he knew an expert, and he bragged that he knew Meng Zitao.

Knowing that this was the case, Mencius didn't bother to pay attention to him, and of course warned him not to say that it was necessary to know himself in the future.

Meng Zitao went to pick up He Wanyi, drove to the hotel, the two came to the door of the hotel, and happened to meet Wang Zhixuan and Cheng Qiheng, Wang Menghan did not come because of pregnancy.

Everyone said hello, Wang Zhixuan saw the lively scene of the hotel, and couldn't help but sigh:

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a lively scene in our Ling City. ”

Meng Zitao said: "This is also a helpless thing, although our Ling City is also considered to have a long history, but in the antique market is still weak, has not formed a good antique cultural atmosphere." ”

"yes, so it's going to take part in our efforts. ”

Wang Zhixuan nodded, and then said: "Fortunately, we now have your auction company to support the scene, and gradually make some fame in China, otherwise, who knows where our Ling City is when we leave this province." ”

Meng Zitao shook his head: "It is far from enough to rely on our family, if you want to make our Lingshi antique world famous, the key is to start with hard power." ”

Wang Zhixuan scratched his head a little about this, hard power is not said to be improved, especially in the well-known domestic antique market, which is not formed after a long period of baptism? If you want to rush it, there is definitely no way.

As for increasing popularity through activities, it is a solution, but it is impossible to do activities every day, like this trade fair is almost two or three times a year, and it is not appropriate to do more. So what do you usually do?

At this time, Cheng Qiheng said: "If you cooperate with a travel agency, do you think it will work?"

"I don't think so. He Wanyi objected: "There are a lot of messy things in travel agencies now, what kind of black tour guides, forced buying and selling, etc., will it cause resentment among tourists, but will it cause losses in the antique market?"

Cheng Qiheng nodded and said: "You are right, so, before this, we must reach a unified consensus within the antique community in Ling City, not allowing illegal things to happen, not allowing consumers to be harmed, and our antique association can also issue guidelines to travelers, reminding them that once they find a problem, they can report it." Once the problem is verified, severe punishment will be imposed on the victim. ”

Wang Zhixuan said: "It's a good idea for you to do this, but the key question is, does our Ling City have tourism resources related to the antique market?

Cheng Qiheng sighed: "Hey, what you said is also true, in the final analysis, our hardware is not good." ”

"If you don't have the hardware, then create one. Meng Zitao laughed.

"Oh, what do you think?" Wang Zhixuan hurriedly asked.

Meng Zitao said: "I have just had a prototype of this matter, and I will discuss it with you after I have thought about it carefully." ”

Wang Zhixuan smiled: "Okay, then I'll wait." ”

Everyone walked into the hotel and met friends who exchanged a few words of greetings, but everyone was in a hurry to go to Taobao, so they didn't talk much.

After discussing it, everyone still chose to separate Taobao, so Meng Zitao and He Wanyi simply came to the top guest room.

Walking in the corridor of the hotel, the two saw that most of the rooms on both sides were open like this, and the beds or tables were full of antiques.

Here, there are endless varieties of porcelain, jewelry, miscellaneous bronzes, calligraphy and paintings, and walking through a door is like crossing into another world, which is absolutely refreshing.

In fact, such a trade fair is also artificially bed in the industry, of course, don't think crookedly, just because of the unique way of trading, everyone jokingly called.

Meng Zitao walked into a room with He Wanyi, only to see that the table and bed in the room were full of exquisite jewelry. At this time, there are already a few guests who are picking up with great interest.

Girls often have a very low immunity to jewelry and other objects, so they are immediately attracted by these exquisite jewelry in the room and immediately join the ranks of Taobao.

The owner of these objects was a young man in his thirties, and when he saw Meng Zitao enter, he took a few more looks, and immediately his eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao shook hands with the other party with a smile and whispered a few polite words.

The young man also knew the interest, so he didn't say much, but just invited Meng Zitao to choose.

Meng Zitao smiled and took a closer look at the things in the room.

The main business here is old beeswax jewelry, everything is very beautiful, and the authenticity rate is also very high, at least 90% are genuine, it is difficult to see in the antique market.

Meng Zitao was selecting, and at the same time explaining to He Wanyi. Soon, He Wanyi selected three jewelry, and Meng Zitao also chose a bracelet.

Just as he was about to check out, a customer also recognized Meng Zitao, and the other party shook hands with Meng Zitao excitedly, probably because he was too excited, and his speech was a little incoherent.

At this time, one of the people next to him asked, "Teacher Meng, I don't know what you think of the things here?"

The somewhat excited customer was stunned when he heard this, and quickly pulled his clothes, apologized to Meng Zitao: "Teacher Meng, I'm really sorry, my friend is still a newcomer and doesn't know the rules very well." ”

Meng Zitao smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, besides, this boss's things are really good." ”

When the boss heard this, he gave Meng Zitao a grateful look, and he said with a smile: "Most of the people who come here to trade are people who understand the goods, so we basically won't bring fakes over, and the price is cheaper than the market. ”

Everyone should know that in the industry, the mixed antique market pays attention to eyesight, which is also the charm of Taobao. Finding a treasure at a low price is called "picking up leaks", and buying a fake at a high price is called "punching eyes", although many people enjoy it, but now the level of counterfeiting is high, which makes some antique lovers very headaches, let alone newcomers.

Therefore, in this exchange meeting, the association has asked the seller to take the genuine product as much as possible to attend the meeting, if there will be a certain penalty because of too many fake complaints, so the probability of genuine products is of course very high.

In addition, the association has also made great efforts to invite more than 20 cultural relics stores in China, and the cultural relics they bring are genuine. These cultural relics are state-owned, and the word "cultural relics" is not allowed to be used in private operations, and cultural relics shops are also places where cultural relics are formally bought and sold.

There is no problem with buying it in an artifact shop, but the price will be a little more expensive, but it also attracts many antique lovers who are not very eye-catching.

"Is it really as good as you say?" the man was visibly unconvinced.

Seeing him like this, the boss asked, "Is there any misunderstanding between this friend?" ”

"Brother Cheng, don't speak. The man waved his hand at his friend, and then said, "You said you didn't bring any fakes, but I bought them just now." ”

As he spoke, he took out a beeswax pendant: "Teacher Meng, take a look, you bought old beeswax, but is this old beeswax!"

may feel that his words are ambiguous, and he added: "I did buy the thing, but I was just a new enthusiast and just believed in the publicity, so I didn't read much before I bought it." ”

Meng Zitao asked the other party to ask for something, and said: "Sir, maybe you have misunderstood, although we have advertised that this trade fair will provide everyone with a better trading experience, but we cannot guarantee that each exhibit brought by the participants is genuine, in addition to some profiteers deliberately bringing fakes over, there are also some merchants who may make a mistake for a while, and it is possible to see the mistake." ”

"Of course, I'm not shirking responsibility, I'll help you see this pendant first, if there is indeed a problem, I'll take you to the merchant to negotiate, and strive to recover your losses, do you think this is good?"

With Meng Zitao's statement, of course this person is no problem, nodding and saying, "Teacher Meng, I believe in you." ”

Meng Zitao smiled, then observed the beeswax pendant in his hand, and after a while, he spoke: "This gentleman, I don't know your surname?"

"Don't give your surname Wu. ”

"Okay, Mr. Wu, that's right, this beeswax pendant is indeed using old beeswax. ”

Seeing the surprised look on the other party's face, Meng Zitao continued: "However, it uses old Middle Eastern beeswax, so there is a question, what variety and what price do you buy it at?" ”

With the heating up of Tibetan collection in China, the price of old beeswax has also soared, especially the price of old Tibetan wax, which is even more unbeatable. In the Tibetan region, the perfect quality of old Tibetan wax is now even more difficult to find.

Among the strings of beeswax hanging around the necks of local merchants, it is difficult to choose a perfect piece, which is basically wounded or tattered. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that the price of large old Tibetan wax is rising rapidly.

As a result, as the price of old Tibetan wax rises, the price of old beeswax in the Middle East also rises. In order to make profits, some merchants sell old Middle Eastern beeswax as Tibetan wax, and this Mr. Wu should have encountered this problem.

Mr. Wu said: "Of course, I bought it according to Tibetan wax and spent 3,000 yuan. ”

"Then when you traded, did the merchant say that it was Tibetan wax?"

"This one doesn't. ”

"Mr. Wu, I'm really a little difficult to deal with this matter, after all, this is the real old beeswax, and your price is not too outrageous, now I can only say that he is suspicious, and we can only warn him, no more. ”

Meng Zitao shook his head secretly, this is the cunning of the merchant, he didn't know it, he just put the price a little higher than the Middle Eastern beeswax, if the buyer was greedy, he would be fooled.

Listening to Meng Zitao's words, Mr. Wu didn't know what to say, in the final analysis, the reason why he bought this pendant, cheap does account for a big factor.

It's just that he was deceived like this, and he felt a little unhappy, so he asked: "Mr. Meng, I don't doubt your judgment, it's just that my friend said that this beeswax is synthetic, what's going on?"

Meng Zitao explained: "There are almost no old synthetic waxes in Tibetan wax, but there are a lot of old synthetic beeswaxes in the old waxes of the Middle East. This kind of old synthetic beeswax is different from the current pressed beeswax synthetic beeswax, it just melts the beeswax and casts it, without adding anything else, and its physical and chemical properties are almost no different from the original wax. ”

In addition, Middle Eastern beeswax is also mixed with a lot of various colors of beeswax, green, blue, red, these are basically plastic products, or other substances mixed with beeswax pressed together, that is, the so-called noble beeswax, snow mountain beeswax, this kind of beeswax must not be bought. ”

At this time, Mr. Wu's friend spoke: "Okay, old Wu, forget about this matter, and give yourself multiple lessons." ”

Mr. Wu was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Hey, then forget it, eat a trench and increase wisdom." Mr. Meng, I'm sorry for your trouble. ”

Meng Zitao waved his hand to say that he was not troublesome, and then asked Mr. Wu for the address of the business, and he felt that he still had to warn him about this kind of loophole.

Coming out of the room, Meng Zitao handed the bracelet he chose to He Wanyi: "I think this bracelet should be quite suitable for you." ”

He Wanyi admired it: "This should be the old Tibetan wax, right? What is the difference between it and Middle Eastern beeswax?"

"Very simply, Tibetan wax is used as a jewelry in Tibet, and it is generally worn on the head, and the old beeswax in the Middle East was once used as currency, and after the monetary function was lost, it was stored as wealth. So, the old Tibetan wax looks better, the pulp is better, the oil is shiny, and the old Middle Eastern beeswax looks dry......"

Meng Zitao explained as he walked, and soon the two of them walked into a room of interest.
