Looking at the fineness of the jewelry box and the peeling off of the lacquer, this catalpa jewelry box has a history of at least hundreds of years. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the corners of the jewelry box, there are traces of being eaten by mice, which makes Chu Ning feel distressed for a while.

It's so outrageous!

If this jewelry box is preserved, it will definitely not be a problem to sell it for tens or even millions.

But now, after this jewelry box is brought back, it has to be repaired first. And this repaired thing, although it looks no different from the whole, has greatly reduced its value.

Chu Ning didn't feel sorry for the price difference, but that such a good jewelry box was ruined like this. If you change to anyone who learns antiques, you will feel a pain in the flesh.

Looking at the shape of the jewelry box, it is a typical old-fashioned jewelry box, which is divided into three layers, upper, middle and lower, and it is quite weighty.

The surface of the box is carved with a blooming lotus flower, and there are lotus leaves under the lotus flower as a lining.

Although the carved patterns on the surface of this box are simple, the carving is extremely exquisite, and the lotus flowers are carved to life. Even in such a gloomy environment, Chu Ning almost had the feeling that he had seen a real lotus flower with a wrong eye.

It's a pity that such a beautiful lotus flower has gaps in many places, as if it was accidentally scratched by something, adding wounds one after another to this moving lotus.

These wounds are accumulated in life, and they are by no means an overnight achievement.

Chu Ning did not reveal her opinion on the jewelry box, and opened the compartment in the jewelry box, revealing a few pieces of silver jewelry inside.

There are bracelets, there are silver hairpins, and silver earrings or something.

It's all silver.

Not a single piece of gold jewelry, let alone a jewel.

Chu Ning immediately understood why Uncle Li's children couldn't look down on these jewelry.

These things are indeed not worth much, the craftsmanship is ordinary, the style is old-fashioned, and the silver has faded a lot. Except for the melt and the beating, no one will wear these silver jewelry out of the house anymore.

Chu Ning looked at those silver jewelry and didn't speak for a long time.

Uncle Li also seemed a little embarrassed, knowing that this little girl in front of him, who was not an ordinary family at first glance, would definitely not look down on these old jewelry of his own, so he hurriedly said: "Girl, if you are willing to accept these jewelry from my family, I will give you this box of jewelry! Don't underestimate this box, it is broken, but it is handed down from my wife's mother's family, and it is an old thing! Now the jewelry box sold outside is good-looking, but it is not as durable as my family!"

If Chu Ning hadn't known that this jewelry box was indeed not simple, she would have almost burst out laughing.

This Uncle Li looks quite simple, but he didn't expect this to start a business, but it is also a set.

"Uncle, it's rare for us to go to the countryside, and we really don't want to run in vain. Chu Ning smiled, "It's not difficult for us to accept your old jewelry." However, I don't know how much you ...... offered."

As soon as Uncle Li saw that there was a door, he immediately said, "I know that these old jewelry are not valuable, but they are also silver." I don't want much, you give me 2,000 yuan, and then take this box of jewelry, how about it?"

Two thousand?!

If it weren't for the sake of the catalpa jewelry box in his hand, Chu Ning almost didn't return the entire jewelry box to Uncle Li immediately!

Just these old silver ornaments that have turned black, if they are recycled, people will give one or two hundred yuan to the sky, and they will still be given higher!

This Uncle Li is too dark-hearted, and he even asks for 2,000 yuan when he opens his mouth!

Chu Ning glanced at Meng Dongyue.

Meng Dongyue understood and glanced at Tao Fei.

Tao Fei understood.

It seems that the two were planning to buy the jewelry.

But these jewelry are really worthless!

Tao Fei muttered in his heart.

He has been a middleman for more than ten years, and he has more or less some eyesight, and he can basically see some signs of ordinary antiques. However, catalpa wood jewelry is relatively rare, and many people don't even know about it at all. Coupled with the lighting problem in this room, Tao Fei naturally didn't notice anything special about the jewelry box containing the old jewelry.

Tao Fei felt that the reason why Meng Dongyue and Chu Ning were willing to buy these jewelry must be out of sympathy for Uncle Li, who lived alone in the countryside.

But this sympathy is often limited, if Uncle Li doesn't know how to restrain himself, I'm afraid these two are not so easy to be soft-hearted.

Tao Fei had a plan in his heart, so he took the initiative to talk to Uncle Li about the price: "Uncle, don't look at us young, just bully us for not understanding the market! This kind of thing is thrown away casually in the city, and we are willing to take it, purely because we don't want to run in vain. Uncle, if you sell sincerely, just tell me the real price, let's not come to those false ones, okay?"

Uncle Li smiled: "Boy Tao, what you said is not right." It was you who said before, it doesn't matter if something is worth it or not, the most important thing is that it is rare. These old jewelry of mine are not valuable, but if you go to the city to look for them, where can you find old jewelry like mine? Based on this, Uncle I want you 2,000 yuan, isn't it too much?"

Tao Fei was speechless for a while.

Is there such a fallacy?

"Uncle, you can't say that. Tao Fei argued, "We are looking for rare things, not things that cannot be used! If you want to say that, then we can't talk about this business!"

Seeing that the group of young people in front of him was indeed not so easy to fool, Uncle Li rolled his eyes, knocked down the cigarette gun in his hand and said, "Forget it, it's rare that we can come from the countryside, so I'll suffer a little loss." If you really want to accept these old jewelry from me, even the jewelry with a box, it is not too much to give 1,800 pieces, right? Not to mention those jewelry, just my box, which is also made of old wood, can be used for repair, and it is much better than the ones sold outside!"

Tao Fei laughed happily.

This Uncle Li is really an expert at bargaining, and when it comes to this, he can still ask for a price of 1,080, and he looks like he is at a loss!

However, he Tao Fei has been running around all these years, and he has not eaten so much food in this industry for nothing!

The two of you went back and forth, and finally pressed the price at 800 yuan, and Uncle Li refused to take a step back.

Tao Fei didn't have a problem with him, so he had to look at Meng Dongyue.

Obviously, these 800 yuan is already the lowest price that Tao Fei can talk about.

As for whether to make this deal, it depends on the meaning of Meng Dongyue and Chu Ning.

Meng Dongyue nodded quietly at Chu Ning.

The corners of Chu Ning's mouth lifted slightly.

In fact, if she hadn't been afraid of leaking a flaw and spent 2,000 yuan to buy this box of jewelry, she would have given the money a long time ago.

Now that Tao Fei has done his best, she naturally won't drag things out anymore, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
