Chapter 162: Betting
Lu Changdai asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, what do you think of my thing?"
Meng Zitao smiled, didn't answer immediately, and said: "Mr. Lu, since it's an exchange, we should speak freely, right?"
"Of course. Lu Changdai nodded, and immediately he understood the meaning of Meng Zitao's words, which made his eyes flash an incredible look, and the first thought that rose in his mind was, did Meng Zitao have a problem with his brain, and he actually said that there was a problem with such an open door?
But thinking of Meng Zitao's previous experience, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, there would be no real problem with his own things, right?
But immediately, he thought that there would definitely be no problem with his things, you know, he not only asked Zhu Tianhua to appraise it, but also went to an authoritative institution to do the appraisal, with this double insurance, how could there be a problem?
Although Lu Changdai had several thoughts in his heart, he only paused in reality, and then said with a smile: "When you get here, how can there be a hidden reason? However, listening to the meaning of what Shopkeeper Meng meant, do you have different opinions on this thing?"
Lu Changdai's words caused an uproar around him, and many people showed disbelief on their faces, and some couldn't believe that the Tianqiu bottle on the table, which looked so open, was actually a "Gao Lao Ba". (New imitates old meaning)
Zhu Tianhua next to him couldn't sit still when he heard this, you know, this Tianqiu bottle was personally appraised by him, and he also issued an appraisal certificate.
Generally speaking, there are two kinds of appraisal certificates issued by him, one is to give money, only use his fame, this kind of certificate is low, even if there is a problem, it generally does not involve his head.
Another kind of appraisal certificate is that he has personally appraised it. This certificate is only issued if it is genuine, and it is also stamped with its own personal seal.
The appraisal fee of this certificate is calculated based on the valuation of the collection, which represents his true level, and there are basically no problems, and the reason why he can live so nourishingly in the antique industry is that it is this kind of certificate that he can live so well.
Now Meng Zitao said that there was something wrong with what he personally identified. Isn't that tearing down his platform? If this is going to get out, it will definitely deal a great blow to his reputation. Besides, on this occasion, if something really goes wrong, then his face will be lost.
So, without waiting for Meng Zitao to speak, Zhu Tianhua said: "Young man, antique appraisal is not something that can be distinguished by casual talk, I hope you don't make mistakes!"
Meng Zitao didn't like Zhu Tianhua's personality in the first place, and he couldn't wait to jump out when he saw him. I was even more disgusted in my heart, and said lightly: "Is it true or false, it's not you and me who have the final say, it's it itself that has the final say, besides, although you are erudite and talented, Mr. Zhu, haven't you been eye-catching before?"
Zhu Tianhua was choked by these words, no matter how conceited he was. Nor would he say that he had never beaten an eye, if he dared to say so. The people around him probably wanted to spit on him and scold him for being shameless.
Meng Zitao continued: "As I said just now, the purpose of our association to hold an exchange meeting is to speak freely, and there is one thing to say. So, Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhu. Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to target you. ”
Lu Changdaipi said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, you are too worried, we have not misunderstood, but since you have different opinions." Can you tell us about it?"
Meng Zitao said: "I think it is both true and false, and I believe that many seniors here can find this problem, so the long-term words are over." ”
Meng Zitao said this in order to take care of everyone's face, lest after he said the result, everyone felt disgraced because they didn't see it.
If he is an elder, or is already a leader in the industry, then even if he doesn't explain, even if everyone feels uncomfortable, it doesn't matter, but he is just a young man in his twenties, if he doesn't take this aspect into account, it will be a beautiful wood in the forest, and the wind will blow.
Sure enough, everyone was still talking about it, but after hearing Meng Zitao's words, they all shut up, so as not to express different opinions and end up being laughed at.
Zhu Tianhua laughed and said: "True is true, a fake is a fake, how can there be any true or false such a statement, if you don't say it today, I believe that all the seniors here should be able to uphold justice!"
Meng Zitao ignored the threat in his words, and said: "Very simply, I think this is a piece of spliced porcelain, and the upper and lower parts are spliced together with extremely clever techniques. ”
"What?!, splicing porcelain?"
Meng Zitao's words made everyone in an uproar again, because whether they had seen this porcelain or not, they couldn't see the traces of splicing.
When Lu Changdai heard Meng Zitao say this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, and he said in his heart: "Meng Zitao, Meng Zitao, I must let you go around without eating today!"
Zhu Tianhua sneered: "Do you say that spliced porcelain is spliced porcelain? Besides, many of the people here are masters here, why don't they see that this is spliced porcelain?"
Meng Zitao smiled: "I think Mr. Zhu, what you said is very funny, like President Wang, Ding Lao, and Mei Lao, they haven't started yet, so you help them tell the results, and you don't ask them if they agree?"
Now there are only a few people who have carefully looked at this Tianqiu bottle, and Zhu Tianhua said what he just said, which is indeed very inappropriate.
Seeing everyone looking at him with a smile, Zhu Tianhua was a little embarrassed, but he was also an old man, and he still had the ability to adapt, so he quickly diverted the conversation and said, "Since you said so, then take out the evidence!"
"Row ......"
As soon as Meng Zitao spoke, Lu Changdai interrupted him and said: "Shopkeeper Meng, you said that my Tianqiu bottle is a mountain climbing product, but I always think that this is a genuine product, otherwise it would be good, let's make a bet, what do you think?"
Meng Zitao was slightly stunned, and his heart was ecstatic, he didn't expect that Lu Changdai would actually dig a pit for him to jump by himself, how could he let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
However, he didn't agree to it in one bite: "I don't know what Mr. Lu wants to bet on?"
Lu Changdai smiled and said, "My requirements are not high, if I win, the shopkeeper Meng will transfer your plum bottle to me." ”
Seeing that Lu Changdai didn't say anything outrageous, the people around him didn't say much.
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "This requirement is indeed not high, but what about the price?"
Lu Changdai discussed with Zhu Tianhua and said, "If I win, I will buy this plum bottle for eight hundred square meters (eight million), how about it?"
Meng Zitao didn't say whether he agreed or not, and asked, "What if you lose?"
Lu Changdai said: "If you are willing to shopkeeper Meng, I am willing to buy it at half the price." ”
Meng Zitao laughed: "Mr. Lu, you are really calculating, whether you win or lose, you will make sure you don't lose money." ”
Lu Changdai frowned: "Shopkeeper Meng, what do you mean by this? This price is not cheap anymore, right?"
Meng Zitao said: "If you want to say the market reference price, 800 square meters is indeed okay, but if you put it up for auction, 1,200 square meters is also normal, right?"
Zhang Jingqiang took over and said: "That is, at your price, you will not suffer a loss at all, and even if the market is good, you still make a profit, what kind of bet is this?"
For a while, everyone felt that it made sense, and they all looked at Zhang Jingqiang with disdain.
However, Lu Changdai turned a blind eye, and he smiled and said, "Since Shopkeeper Meng doesn't agree with this plan, what do you think is appropriate?"
Meng Zitao said: "First of all, let me state that my plum vase is not authentic. ”
Lu Changdai was stunned when he heard this, and thoughtful looks flashed on the faces of some of the people around him
Lu Changdai and Zhu Tianhua glanced at each other, and said, "Shopkeeper Meng, since you are not authentic, then I will definitely lower this price." ”
Meng Zitao shook his head: "The price will definitely not drop, if I lose or the price you said will be given to you, if I win, then the price will be doubled, if you don't agree, then let's make a pendency." ”
"Wait a minute, let's discuss ......"
Lu Changdai thought about it, then pulled Zhu Tianhua to the corner and asked in a low voice, "Teacher Zhu, what do you think of that plum bottle?"
Zhu Tianhua said with some conceit: "I still have the same previous opinion, which is absolutely true. ”
"In that case, why does Meng Zitao still say that it is not true?" Lu Changdai was a little puzzled, and he still believed in Meng Zitao's judgment very much, since Meng Zitao was not true, he felt that there would be some problems with that plum bottle.
Zhu Tianhua sneered: "To be honest, I did not understand it at first, but think about it, what are you discussing with him now?"
"Gambling game......" Speaking of this, Lu Changdai also reacted, this can't be that Meng Zitao retreated in his heart because he wasn't sure that he would win, and deliberately said so, right?
The more Lu Changdai thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth, and said in his heart: "This kid actually scared me and wanted me to give up on my own initiative, no way!"
Zhu Tianhua continued: "If you have confidence, then bet with him." ”
Lu Changdai said with a smile: "I, Lu, will not be scared away by his young words......"
Back in place, Lu Changdai nodded and said, "Okay, just according to what you said." ”
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, I like to be a villain first and then a gentleman, there is no basis for words, should we sign an agreement first?"
Lu Changdai frowned slightly when he heard this, and then stretched out, and then agreed to Meng Zitao's request, and said in his heart: "Sample, I see that your heart is getting more and more bottomless!
Next, the two sides signed an agreement and let Ding Zhiguo and others be witnesses. (To be continued.) )
