Chapter 872: The Old Lady's Request
Li Quanxin was thinking about it, but he still had to deal with it on his face, he laughed dryly, he considered the wording, and said:
"You look a little like that gentleman, and I had a few words with him yesterday, and he said that his grandfather had just died, but his grandmother was still alive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Hearing Li Quan mention the death of his wife, the old lady didn't seem to be able to get rid of this sad thing completely, her eyes instantly dimmed a little, and she was silent for a moment before she let out a long sigh and said slowly:
"Then it should be right, that young man is my grandson, he ran outside yesterday, and after he came back, he rummaged through the cabinets at home, and wanted to find a few relics of his grandfather, and said that he took a few things and sold them for 90,000 yuan in the Treasure Pavilion of Liulichang. You're the one in this store, right?"
This is the first time Li Quan has been doing antique business seriously, he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing, his face suddenly became a little unpleasant, but no matter how the old lady said it, it can be regarded as polite, even if he is aggrieved, he can't say ugly things to the old lady.
The matter is here, lying will definitely not work, Li Quan secretly said in his heart, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, so he has to admit it head-on.
"That's the case, your grandson came to the store yesterday and said he wanted to sell something, and we told him that we haven't opened it yet, but he kept saying that he wanted to find the boss, and we couldn't do it, so we asked him to take it out and take a look. What he brought was three tortoiseshell products, the things were good, but a bit risky, we made the situation clear to him, and finally the deal was reached for 90,000 yuan, and the documents were made. I'll go get the contract and show it to you. ”
Saying that, Li Quan was going to go to the safe to get the contract signed yesterday, his original intention in doing this was naturally to show the old lady that their transaction was legal, and the things were risky, and the price of 90,000 yuan he offered was not low, and there was a contract as evidence.
However, the old lady stopped his next move, smiled, shook his head lightly and said: "You don't need to read the contract, if you don't make a document, if you sell something, you sell it." I don't know about antiques, and a few tortoiseshell things can be sold for 90,000 yuan, which is already a lot. ”
As soon as Li Quan heard this, his hanging heart suddenly fell to the ground, but he still felt a little strange in his heart, since this old lady was not here to find trouble, and she didn't plan to regret it, what did she want to do here?
"You drink tea first, what's the matter, you speak slowly. ”
Li Quan guessed that there must be something wrong with the old lady, but in view of the old lady's modest and polite attitude, they couldn't directly drive the guests out, poured a cup of tea for the old lady and put it in front of her.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Quan's words came out, the old lady sighed and said directly:
"I also have a bottom on these three things, a pen holder, an octagonal box and a folding fan. The pen holder doesn't matter with the Bafang box, but the folding fan is different, it is my wife's own handmade, and it is also his favorite thing when he was alive, and the fan used is also a painting given to him by an old friend of his, and he almost never leaves it. ”
"In the past few days, the family has been in turmoil, and I have no time to take care of housework, so a few grandchildren in the family have gone through a lot of things that my wife and children collected before their deaths. This fan, the octagonal box and the pen holder are made of a set of materials, and I deliberately gathered them together and put them in a box to hide. Unexpectedly, he was found by this little grandson, and he unknowingly took out the things and sold them. ”
When she said this, the old lady's eyes flashed with deep powerlessness and sadness, and the sparkle in her eyes was almost gone.
Speaking of this, how could a few people in the room still not understand, Li Quan saw the old lady's expression, and couldn't help but think of his own grandmother who was not much older with this old lady at home, and suddenly felt pity, and couldn't help asking:
"So you mean you want to take this folding fan back and keep it in mind?"
The old lady shook her head: "You open the door to do business, of course, you mean that one is one, although I am a layman, but I also know the rules of business that are true to my word, since this thing has been sold, of course I can't open my mouth to go back." ”
"Then you are ......"
This made Li Quan a little confused, if this old lady didn't want things, then she found the store in a daze, and said so much, what does it mean?
The old lady didn't beat around the bush, and said her thoughts bluntly: "I do want to take things back, but I won't let you suffer." The 90,000 yuan, I will give it to you, I just need that folding fan, the square box and the pen holder, and I will compensate you for the loss, do you think this is okay?"
Li Quan frowned when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Huo Sining, and the four people in the room looked at each other a few times, and they all looked at each other a little.
It stands to reason that although the old lady's request is not excessive, it is essentially similar to finding a back account, although she wants at least one of the things, but it is not much different from getting all the things back.
The store has not yet opened, Li Quan has just done his first business, and when he encounters such a thing, he is always a little unlucky, so his face is a little not good-looking, and he always feels as if he has committed some taboo, but if he really wants to refuse, he can't make up his mind to open this mouth.
In fact, although the antique industry said that there are rules of the antique shop, but it is not uncommon to find such unruly things as the account, many people who come to the antique street to trade are laymen, and laymen do not pay attention to these rules, so there are not a few people who sell things and regret it.
But such a person is either rude and rude, and finally tears his face, or he tries his best to set a trap, and it is indeed very rare to be as frank and straightforward as this old lady.
Huo Sining is not such a stubborn person, and the situation of this old lady does sound excusable, so she thought about it for a while, and felt that she should be accommodating, and was about to signal to Li Quan to let him agree, but she didn't expect that at this time, the old lady continued to speak:
"I know I'm asking for a bit too much, but I'm really reluctant to sell this folding fan. Although I don't know antiques, I often hear my wife talk about the rules of your trade. ”
At this point, the old lady sighed again, as if she had struggled a bit, and at last had to compromise:
"I think it's good, 90,000 yuan is still counted, if you promise to return the pen holder to me, my wife still has two old things, if you can see it, I can sell it to you." (To be continued.) )
