Chapter 144: A Connoisseur

The owner of the shop was in his forties, and the one in his fifties was his friend.

Both of them stood up, and the shopkeeper carefully took down the ivory Guanyin and placed it on the table.

"Look, young man, but don't touch it!"

The shopkeeper said with a smile, and Zhang Yang nodded.

He didn't have any objection to the shopkeeper's words, the carvings themselves were fragile, and if you took them directly with your hands, if you didn't pay attention, they could cause harm.

Mi Xue and Hu Xin also gathered around Zhang Yang, looking curiously at the ivory Guanyin in front of them.

Speaking of which, this Guanyin is really good, the carving is exquisite and lifelike, even if it is Mi Xue and other laymen who don't understand, this will look very beautiful and noble.

Zhang Yang looked carefully, and his eyes slowly became brighter and brighter.

Looking closely, he can be more sure that this ivory Guanyin is the one that belonged to him in his previous life, not only the appearance, but the appearance is exactly the same, and the two Guanyin have a small flaw on their bodies.

This defect is still exactly the same.

"Boss, how much does this ivory carving cost?"

After watching it for a while, Zhang Yang suddenly raised his head and asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was looking at them with a smile, and he was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Zhang Yang to ask anything, so he asked directly.

"Thirty thousand!"

After looking at Zhang Yang carefully for a while, the shopkeeper gently spit out a few words.

Zhang Yang also gave him an unusual feeling, he couldn't tell him what it was, otherwise he wouldn't tell Zhang Yang the price directly, for many students, this is definitely a sky-high price, an unimaginable sky-high price.

"Thirty thousand?"

Zhang Yang replied softly and nodded silently.

This ivory carving was worth at least 300,000 yuan in the previous life, and now this era is not as crazy as in the previous life, but tens of thousands of dollars are still needed.

The price of 30,000 yuan is not expensive strictly speaking, and Zhang Yang can accept it.

"Yes, if you are less than 30,000 yuan, you will not be sold, young man, I saw that you were young, so I gave you a fixed price!"

The shopkeeper mistook what Zhang Yang said softly for a counteroffer, and added with a smile.

The friend next to him nodded his head.

This ivory carving, someone used to ask for the price, at least 40,000 yuan, just now his friend was still a little confused.

Now that he heard the explanation of the shopkeeper, he also understood that the shopkeeper saw that these people were students, so he didn't say the high price, but he also didn't think that the students in front of him would buy his things.

At this time, Zhang Yang and Mi Xue were still carrying various bags in their hands, and the shopkeeper could see at a glance just now that these were all things sold in nearby stores.

However, this also made him notice Zhang Yang, and he silently observed Zhang Yang on the side, and slowly, his face also had a little surprised look.

"Thirty thousand, deal!"

Zhang Yang nodded, he was not dissatisfied with this price, he was just thinking about something else just now.

What he thought was that since the ivory Guanyin could appear, some of the other things he had in his previous life should still exist, not to mention that there were a few of his favorite things that should be able to be retrieved.

It's also fun to have something you liked in your last life, and it's fun to have it again in this life.

After speaking, Zhang Yang opened the canvas bag and took out the money inside.

Watching Zhang Yang take out a thick stack of hundred-yuan bills from a very ordinary bag, the shopkeeper and his friend both widened their eyes and looked a little incredulous.

This ordinary bag, which many students had a few years ago, was for some books, paper and pencils.

They never thought that someone would use such a bag to hold tens of thousands of dollars in cash.

Although it is not a rare era for 10,000 yuan households, there are not many tens of thousands of people who come up at a time, especially Zhang Yang looks so young and obviously a student.

Zhang Yang didn't pay attention to their expressions, the money was still retrieved by him from the police station, and the people who fought last time had been treated as robbers.

Zhang Yang nodded the money there, and then shook his head again.

The cash on him is less than 30,000.

Originally, he had more than 30,000 yuan in cash, last time Nan Nan's mother was hospitalized, he helped pay some in advance, and yesterday he had a meal in the Triumph Tower, although it was less than usual, but there were more than 1,000 yuan, and he only had 20,000 yuan in cash now.

"Boss, do you think this will work, I have two thousand less, I will press your mobile phone to you first, and I will give you the money later!"

Zhang Yang counted out 28,000 in cash, put his mobile phone on the table, and then said a word to the shopkeeper.

Mi Xue and Hu Xin all looked at each other, and finally shook their heads together.

They were thinking about whether they could help Zhang Yang advance the money first, but then they all thought that each of them didn't have much money on them, and even if they made it together, they couldn't make up two thousand.

"Cell phone?"

The shopkeeper subconsciously looked at Zhang Yang's mobile phone, their business people have good eyesight, and at a glance they know that this mobile phone is very good, it is still the latest, and the value is definitely higher than two thousand.

However, the owner of the store regretted it in his heart.

He thought that Zhang Yang and the others were just students, and it was impossible for them to afford such a valuable thing, so he said a real price, but he didn't expect that this time he would be gone, and the person in front of him turned out to be a gold owner.

A businessman always thinks about maximizing profits, and now he feels that he sells things cheaply, and it is no problem to sell them for an extra 5,000 or even 10,000 yuan.

And now Zhang Yang happened to not bring enough money, which made the shopkeeper have the idea of regretting it, the thing was going to be sold, and it was not uncommon in the antique circle to suddenly change his mind.

"Lao Wang, the young man is very sincere, since there is such a good mobile phone pressing, I think you will agree!"

The shopkeeper was thinking of a reason when the friend next to him suddenly said something.

After his friend finished speaking, he also smiled at Zhang Yang.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, then nodded, and said to Zhang Yang: "Okay, the mobile phone is pressed here, and it will be worth two thousand yuan first, young man, you are really lucky!" ”

After speaking, he put away the cash on the table and counted it carefully.

After receiving Zhang Yang's money, it means that the business is also done, even if the owner wants to regret it, he can't regret it, and regretting it at this time is tantamount to breaking the rules.

That's why he said that Zhang Yang was lucky, and without the help of the person next to him to speak, he might change his mind and ask for this thing to 50,000.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Yang politely smiled at the person who spoke for him, and the shopkeeper's hesitant look just now, in fact, he also noticed.

Zhang Yang, who has two lifetimes of experience, naturally knows what the owner of this shop has in mind, and he has encountered such a thing in his previous life, which is very infuriating.

But he is helpless, things are people's, especially antiques, basically what people say is what the price is, you can not buy it, if you want to buy it, you can only suffer from this knife.

Zhang Yang was already planning to be stabbed just now, but he didn't expect that someone here would speak for him.

The person who spoke for him, named Guo Da, fifty-two years old, is the vice president of the Changjing Collection Association, and is very famous in the local collecting circle in Changjing, and many people who have just started to play collecting like to ask him for help in identification.

In addition, there are some wealthy businessmen who also believe in his identification, he is friends with the owner of this shop, and he usually gives the owner of the shop guidance, so after he spoke, the owner of the shop did not hesitate and agreed directly.

Guo Da's face, the owner of the store must give.

"Where did the young man go to school, there are not many people like you who are so young, who like antiques and are willing to spend a lot of money, you didn't ask anything just now, and you dare to say that you have so much money to buy, and you are not afraid of slapping your eyes?"

Guo Da looked at Zhang Yang and said with a smile, asking Zhang Yang several questions in one sentence.

Zhang Yang smiled and said directly: "What you like, no matter how much money you have, it's worth it, it's hard to buy and I like it, and I admit it if I really hit it!" ”

"It's hard to buy a thousand dollars, I like it, it's very good, but this mentality is unacceptable to play collecting, do you know when you bought something?"

Guo Da laughed a little louder, but he still shook his head and asked again......

"The ivory Guanyin ornaments in the middle of the Qing Dynasty are well carved, and they are from the hands of famous artists, which should be the work of Wang Qinian, a famous ivory carving artist in the Qing Dynasty!"

Zhang Yang smiled slightly and immediately replied.

This ivory carving, who had been in his hands for a lot of time in his previous life, naturally knew it clearly, and this person actually tested him with these questions.

"Yes, very good, it seems that I underestimated you, it turns out that you are sure!"

Guo Da nodded with satisfaction, Zhang Yang's answer surprised him a little, he didn't expect the young man in front of him to have such poisonous eyes.

At this time, the collection market was not as hot as in later generations, there were many, many instructional books, and at this time, there were still many ordinary enthusiasts, most of whom accumulated knowledge based on their own experience.

As old as Zhang Yang, there are not many people who can see the age at a glance, and Zhang Yang can even see who this is from, so it is even more difficult.

You must know that from the beginning to the present, Zhang Yang has only been watching, and has not even touched this ivory carving.

"It turns out that he is also an expert, and it is rare to see a young connoisseur like you1!"

The shopkeeper also ordered good money, put all the money together, held it in his hand, and said to Zhang Yang with a smile.

He also heard what Zhang Yang said just now, which made him understand that what he met today was not only a gold master, but also an expert.

When he meets an expert, then he doesn't need to say anything, and he doesn't make any money selling this thing at this price anyway, or he earns a little less.

However, this may also allow him to pull a customer, and Zhang Yang can come back to him to buy it if he needs it in the future, buy a few more pieces, and earn more money back in the future.

Those who do business are shrewd, and this time he has put away all his original thoughts, and concentrated on winning over Zhang Yang, a customer, so he naturally spoke much more politely.

"I'll take the things first, and I'll send you the money when I get it!"

Zhang Yang smiled lightly, and carefully picked up the ivory Guanyin, this time the owner did not have any opinion, this ivory carving was already Zhang Yang's thing, he received the money and mobile phone, which means that the transaction has been completed.
