Chapter 37: Rats Have Rats

Kong Si is looking at the general jar in front of him, a little unsure, this colorful Shoushan Fuhai pattern general jar, the shape is complete, the decoration is exquisite, the quality is good, a few turns, I didn't find anything to be picky, but he always felt that there was a lack of a delicate and elegant sense of agility.

Feeling that something was not right, Kong Si couldn't help but hesitate, he carefully put down the utensils in his hand, and glanced at the owner of the general's jar, a guy named Lin Zihao, who was not tall and thin, and knew that Lu Dao was a local at a glance.

Lin Zihao was squatting in the corner on the side, his face obviously showing signs of being beaten, and when he saw Kong Si looking at him, he quickly showed a flattering smile.

Such a lewd guy! Kong Si couldn't help frowning, and his suspicion of this thing increased a little more. After being in this business for a long time, he knows the essence of it is better to miss than to be greedy, and he must be skeptical of everything first.

As the old saying goes, snakes have snake paths, and rats have rat paths. Since Kong Si graduated, for some reason, he came to this southern metropolis from the capital, and started the business of small merchants and hawkers.

This Zhao Xiaowu is the person in charge of a local debt collection company, and he has a group of horses under him, specializing in collecting money for those private loans, and private loans in the southeast coastal area have existed since ancient times, and the resulting disputes must be cleaned up, which has given rise to a large number of debt collection companies like Zhao Xiaowu.

On weekdays, Zhao Xiaowu does not advocate force, according to him, debt collection is not only a physical work, but also a technical work, to learn more psychology, focusing on mental torture! Occasionally, though, when the theory fails, he doesn't mind using a little bit of force. The guy named Lin Zihao in front of him is a little too unreasonable, he is in debt and wants to run away, it is necessary to teach him a lesson, so that he can know the rules of the road.

When Kong Si arrived, he saw several fierce men standing behind Zhao Xiaowu, a porcelain on the table next to him, and a man with swollen eyes and a blue nose squatting on the side.

He has seen a lot of this situation, and he knows at a glance that this porcelain is the collateral of the debtor, if it is a fake, the debtor is afraid that he will have to suffer another meal. These debt collection companies are still very civilized at the beginning, but once they tear their faces, they will not be merciful, and they will be black!

After a few words of greeting, Zhao Xiaowu introduced the situation to Kong Si a little, it was not the first time he and Kong Si had cooperated, and they were acquaintances, Kong Si was too lazy to care about the stories behind them, and looked at things directly.

The Chongzhen general jar in front of him, if it is real, it is worth a lot of money! It's just that the antique industry, except for the life pit, pays attention to the orderly inheritance, no matter how Lin Zihao looks at it, he doesn't look like a person with this kind of thing.

I had three points of suspicion in my heart, Kong Si looked at this thing again, and always felt that something was wrong, and when he was hesitating, he received a call from Wu Chen, remembering the scene of the first time the two met last time, and felt that this buddy was also fun, so let him come over to meet him.

After Wu Chen rushed over, he was startled when he entered the door and saw this situation, this broad daylight is like opening a fragrant hall, and the current underworld has developed to this point? !

is not a person all the way, Kong Si did not introduce Wu Chen to Zhao Xiaowu and them, only explained the matter roughly, pointed to the general jar on the table, and asked him to help take a look, he didn't have any thoughts in his heart, in his eyes, Wu Chen was still a big stick and mallet swaying all over the street!

Anyway, I often visit museums, some basic knowledge, Wu Chen still knows the way, the general jar is a porcelain type, and it is not ancient, because the lid of the jar is hemispherical and protruding, and the top of the lid is towering, which is very similar to the helmet worn by the ancient general, so it is named the general jar.

This kind of vessel shape, roughly created in the Ming Dynasty Jiawan period, at the beginning of the Buddhist temple in order to decorate the ashes of the monks, nuns after the cremation, the ashes left behind, the special urn for burning.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, because this kind of vessel is tall and straight, rich and handsome, the outer wall of the utensil can be decorated with blue and white, colorful and other techniques, and it is gradually made into ornamental furnishings. From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, the general's jar was produced in large quantities, and its pastel, monochrome glaze and blue and white double happiness jar even became a must-have for wedding dowry at that time.

Now in the collection market, the general jar is used as a large furnishing vessel, and it is also the focus of the ancient porcelain collection.

The colorful Shoushan Fuhaiwen general jar in front of him is a standard vessel, he roughly estimated, the whole vessel with a lid is roughly thirty-five centimeters high, the diameter is fourteen centimeters, the abdominal diameter is twenty-seven and eight centimeters, and the bottom diameter is seventeen or eighteen centimeters.

"How? Is this thing worth anything? Zhao Xiaowu saw that Wu Chen was looking and touching, and after tinkering for a long time, he was quite presentable, thinking that it was an expert found by Kong Si, so he asked with a shy face.

Where can Wu Chen see the value, it is nothing more than thinking about getting started with more things, as for the situation, I have watched so many treasure appreciation programs and learned a little. Now that Zhao Xiaowu asked this, his face turned slightly red, and he only shook his head.

Zhao Xiaowu, as a debt collector, only thinks about getting the money back, what's the point of tossing people, and he also hopes that this thing can be worth some money. Seeing that Wu Chen shook his head, his heart sank, he was actually not very optimistic about Lin Zihao's "family heirloom", he had seen a lot of small ruffians like this, what could he have in his hometown.

"How much is it worth?" Zhao Xiaowu was a little anxious, this Lin Zihao was so poor that he was the master, did he really go to tear down the door panel of his house? Besides, a few broken door panels can't be sold for much money.

"I'll take another look." After Wu Chen finished speaking, he turned his posture slightly, looked over intently, and saw a dazzling light orange light wrapping the porcelain jar.

He hadn't formed a conditioned reflex yet, and he didn't react to what it meant for a while, so he closed his eyes and tried to recall it, and after sorting it out in the past few days, the map that was preliminarily determined. Comparing this light orange light with the color spectrum in my mind, it should be an artifact from the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

Even if this is not safe, there are too many means of counterfeiting, such as using old bottoms to close new cans, or repairing them. Wu Chen was afraid that this thing was passive, so he looked through it again, and carefully swept it along the wall of the tank, confirming that it was a complete device, and there was no internal damage.

Wu Chen was ecstatic in his heart, this really wanted to rain, and the wind would blow in the sky! This is the first practice since the ability was upgraded! That controllability makes him cool! No more erratic things like before! If this is the case, as long as you are lucky in the future, you can encounter it, and it is not a matter of time to miss the inspection?!

He pretended to be expressionless and walked back to Kong Si, discussed with Kong Si in a low voice, and suggested in a low voice that Kong Si could take it if the price was right.

Kong Si was a little surprised in his heart, he felt that Wu Chen was not the kind of person who opened his mouth, and there should be a basis for saying this, of course, on this occasion, he couldn't elaborate.

To believe or not to believe? He was a decisive person, although he was surprised in his heart, his face did not show any hint, he pondered for a while, thinking about how to bargain with Zhao Xiaowu.

Zhao Xiaowu felt a little cold in his heart when he saw them like this, if this was not worth much, it would be a real headache! He habitually looked at Kong Si and them with a smile, but all kinds of thoughts were turning in his heart.

"Mr. Zhao, if you don't do this, give me 10,000 yuan for this thing." Kong Si thought for a while and said slowly, although Zhao Xiaowu is a debt collector and is the general manager of the company, Kong Si has always been commensurate with Mr. Zhao, and he also needs to save face.

At this price, he is neither high nor low, even if it is folded, he will not lose too much, and a contemporary imitation with such good workmanship will cost thousands of yuan.

"This ......" Zhao Xiaowu pondered for a while, he has cooperated with Kong Si a few times, they are very happy, and they are a reliable sales channel, after all, they do this business, and there are mostly gray areas, and there are not many stable partners who can cooperate for a long time.

Besides, he can't tell whether these things are real or fake, good or bad, but the big guarantee companies have their own appraisers, and small debt collection companies like them can't afford to support any professionals, so they can only "outsource their business".

He doesn't care about that, as long as he can get the money back, "See if you can add more, this kid owes more than 100,000 yuan!" ”

"How can there be hundreds of thousands, only sixty thousand!" Lin Zihao, who was squatting in the corner, raised his head when he heard this, shouted dissatisfiedly, and immediately kicked twice, "Damn, no interest!" ”

"There must be no more than 100,000 yuan, don't say that I don't like this thing well, even if it's real, it can't reach that price." Kong Si frowned and said, if it is a regular channel, it will naturally be more than this price, but if you take this kind of Ruth, the price is indeed frighteningly low.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Wu Chen, and saw that his eyes were full of perseverance, so he gave up the price, "At most, fifteen thousand, we will bear half of the risk." ”

"That's too little, I don't know how much it's worth. It's too low, but it's not enough to pay off the debt. We're all rectum people, so I won't say much, you see, if you can, you can take 40,000. I can't get any lower. Zhao Xiaowu still looked sad, but his attitude was categorical.

"Done!" Kong Si thought about it, slapped his thigh, and agreed. Forty thousand is not much! Last time, he just got a pot of Feng Guilin and transferred it to Tian Lao, and he had solid funds in his hands. After negotiating, Kong Si paid the money happily, of course, he went outside to withdraw cash, this kind of transaction, cash exchange, and then did not recognize it.

After finishing it, Kong Si wrapped the jar with a piece of dyed cloth, held it in his arms, called Wu Chen and left. Since the transaction is done, don't participate in the last one. Wu Chen didn't know what the price of Lu Dao was, he just felt that Kong Si shouldn't be a hawker at all, and he didn't have the quality of a profiteer at all!

"Are you so sure what can you say?" Out of the alley, the two began to chat, Kong Si was holding more than 40,000 things in his hands, and he always felt unsure.

"I can't tell, I just think this jar should be real." Wu Chen said sullenly, he couldn't say why, Kong Si was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, this buddy relied on intuition, and his heart became more and more bottomless, he thought about it for a while, took out the phone and called Tian Lao, he happened to be at home, and when he heard Kong Siyi say, he asked them to take things over and take a look.
