Chapter 84: Mu Ruyi

"It's just a little bit ......"

Fang Yuan's fingers brushed over the jade gourd's body, and after carefully looking at it, he was also a little regretful. Because in his senses, the jade gourd already had the fluctuation of aura, but this fluctuation was as uncertain as smoke, and it did not condense and form at all, so that it could not become a magic weapon.

"If you can pass 60 points, now it's only 59 points. Even if it's only a point difference, it's two completely different treatments. Fang Yuan sighed in his heart, and was about to put the jade gourd back.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Fang Yuan's gaze was certain, and he was a little surprised. In an instant, he reacted, and his fingertips rubbed over the gourd, but he made a relatively novel discovery.

“…… Give it a try! ”

After thinking for a moment, Fang Yuan raised his head and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this thing?" ”

"It's not expensive, a thousand!"

At this time, the stall owner smiled wickedly, this is the rhythm of slaughtering fat sheep. Who told Fang Yuan to focus on it just now, he was clearly telling the stall owner that he had taken a fancy to this thing, and when would he stay if he didn't kill it at this time?

"Twenty!"

Fang Yuan calmly bargained, he often went to the antique street with Bao Longtu, and he had long known the urine nature of these stall owners. One thousand is a relatively generous price, and some people even dare to call it one hundred thousand million.

In fact, everyone knows that this kind of sky-high price is all nonsense, and whoever takes it seriously is a fool. The stall owner offers a high price, just to wait for the bargaining time to occupy some advantages.

"Nine hundred!"

Hearing Fang Yuan's counteroffer, the stall owner also lowered the price appropriately, and then praised: "Little brother, don't look at the gourd is small, it's not very eye-catching, in fact, this is a ...... made of Hetian jade."

"Don't blow it blindly, if this is Hetian jade, I'll eat it directly." Fang Yuan said angrily: "Thirty yuan, do you want to sell it or not?" ”

"Definitely not." The stall owner shook his head again and again, and said slyly: "Seeing that the little brother is so sincere, then I won't play falsely, seven hundred yuan, if you want it, you can take it directly." ”

"Why don't you say seventy?" Fang Yuan said disdainfully: "Seventy, do you want to do it?" ”

"Less, too little." The stall owner definitely disagreed, and then began a tirade, praising the jade gourd from beginning to end. I don't know how he saw many advantages from the little gourd.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense." Fang Yuan was a little impatient, put down the jade gourd, and then took out a red ticket: "One hundred yuan, it's okay, it's okay, it's not okay to pull it down!" ”

The stall owner's eyes flickered, and he began to wonder if this was Fang Yuan's bottom line, or was he making a false shot?

"Don't think about it." Fang Yuan shook his head and said: "This thing is really not very good, I bought it back to give it to someone as a gift, polish the thing brighter, and then match it with a high-grade brocade box, it looks like it should be worth thousands of yuan, right?" ”

"Little brother is clever." The stall owner gave a thumbs up, and then smiled shyly: "Since it can be worth thousands of yuan, then do you want to add more money?" ”

"You're really good at hitting snakes with sticks." Fang Yuan squinted and said, "Add fifty, one hundred and fifteen, this is the reserve price, if you don't agree, forget it." It's a big deal, I'll look at other stalls, I don't believe I can't find the same ......"

"No, I didn't say I disagreed." The stall owner hurriedly stretched out his hand to block: "One hundred and fifty yuan, deal!" ”

"That's pretty much it."

Fang Yuan took out another fifty yuan and handed it to the stall owner, then picked up the jade gourd and walked away quite satisfied. The stall owner is also very satisfied, because he has also seen things, it is indeed not very good, the cost price is at most ten or twenty yuan, and now he has made more than 100 yuan, which is equivalent to hundreds of percent of the profit, and he is even happier.

Since everyone is happy, there is no question of who suffers, and it can be called a win-win situation.

"I feel a little lost, but forget it, a loss is a blessing."

Taking the jade gourd and looking at it, Fang Yuan frowned slightly, stuffed the things directly into his pocket, and then started a new round of treasure hunting. Sometimes, however, luck really can't be stopped, and he only walked a few steps, and after a casual glance, he immediately found something that looked unusual in a small stall.

"It's ......"

After making a discovery, Fang Yuan's footsteps naturally stopped, and after a little hesitation, he immediately walked towards the small stall.

"Little brother, come and see." Seeing the business coming to the door, the stall owner naturally smiled: "Although I don't have many of these things, I am 100% guaranteed that all of them are genuine and licensed." ”

"I see." Fang Yuan nodded and said, "People sell antiques and antiques, but what you sell here is handicrafts." ”

Fang Yuan's words are true, the things on this stall are mostly all kinds of new and bright, small and exquisite handicrafts, which are completely different from the mottled vicissitudes of life and dull and clumsy antiques nearby. That's why he was drawn to it at first glance, and immediately noticed something special.

"Eat with a mouthful, eat with a mouthful." The stall owner smiled and said: "The popularity here is booming, the business is good, I just come to join in the fun." If you are tired of picking out antiques, you can also take a look at my things by the way to relieve your fatigue. ”

"Makes sense." Fang Yuan praised: "The boss has ideas, presumably the business must be very good." ”

"General, general, it's just everyone's care and cheering." The stall owner smiled and said, "Little brother, just like you said, I have these handicrafts, and the price is not expensive." If you like it, you might as well buy two and I'll give you a discount! ”

"Oh, thank you boss, then." Fang Yuan smiled, he really picked it up. First of all, a string of wooden beads, playing with it for a while and feeling dissatisfied, put the wooden beads down and picked up a bamboo pipe.

Fang Yuan doesn't smoke, but the bamboo pipe is really textured, about thirty centimeters long, and the bamboo joints are the same as the finger joints, extending one section at a time. The mouthpiece is small and the pipe is thick, and there is a gradual process in it, which is carefully reground and then coated with a layer of wax and light lacquer, which naturally gives the pipe a delicate charm.

Such a thing, even if you don't use it yourself, it seems to be a good choice to take it back as a collector's item.

"This is a Hunan bamboo product."

The stall owner was very discerning, and immediately said cleverly beside him: "Don't look at this as just a pipe, but the process is not simple, it needs to go through a series of procedures such as cooking, roasting, drying, and drying to make this pipe." This kind of thing is best given to the elders who smoke at home, or just for viewing and playing......"

"Yes, how much?" Fang Yuan asked with a smile.

"It's not expensive, it's only two hundred." The stall owner has unblinking eyes and a lovely smile, but when it is time to go under the knife, he will definitely not be soft.

"How much?" Fang Yuan's voice was high, full of expressing his dissatisfaction.

"If you can get a discount, you can get a nine-percent discount." The stall owner hurriedly added: "One hundred and eighty is enough." ”

"It's too expensive, eighty is about the same." Fang Yuan emphasized: "Boss, I plan to buy two pieces, if your price is too high, then I won't buy any of them." ”

"Uh......" the stall owner hesitated, "what else do you like?" ”

"That's it......" Fang Yuan smiled, and directly reached out and picked up an item.

"Ruyi." When the stall owner saw it, his eyes rolled slightly: "Little brother, although the price of this thing is not expensive, it is slightly higher than a pipe." After all, it is auspicious, and you can please a good mouthpiece. ”

That's right, the other thing Fang Yuan picked up was indeed a Ruyi, a wooden Ruyi. With a little measurement, you can know that this Ruyi is not long, and it can barely be level with his fingers.

At first glance, Ruyi's appearance is not very good, gray-black-brown, and there are some scars, which affect the degree of beauty. But the carving process seems to be good, especially the two heads of Ruyi, one large and one small, including the middle node, are carved more carefully, giving people a delicate feeling.

"Boss, I'm not going to bargain with you anymore."

Just when the stall owner was pondering what price should be set for Ruyi, Fang Yuan did not play his cards according to common sense, and simply said neatly: "Two things for two hundred yuan, okay?" ”

"Of course not." The stall owner instinctively refused.

"No, forget it." Fang Yuan immediately put down his things, and then stood up directly.

"Little brother, don't worry, the price is negotiable." Of course, the stall owner retained: "Look at two hundred and five...... No, my mouth, I mean to say two hundred and forty...... Well, two hundred and thirty, would you add another thirty? ”

“…… Well, too lazy to cut down with you again. ”

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders, paid directly, and then took the things and left. The moment he turned around, he had a happy smile on his face when he had picked up the treasure, just like the happy mood of the stall owner who had found a fat sheep.

"Cool ......"

At this time, Fang Yuan slowly walked back humming an out-of-tune tune, and happened to see Bao Longtu walking happily with something tightly wrapped in newspaper.

"Haha, it looks like everyone has gained something." Bao Longtu walked up to him, his eyes lit up: "You bought a gift?" ”

"Luckily, I happened to meet it." Fang Yuan smiled brightly, and the bamboo pipe in his hand turned and pointed: "Let's go, go to Boss Xiong's side and sit down, and ask him for a box to put things by the way." ”

Bao Longtu had no opinion, and while walking towards Feng Shui Street, he asked curiously: "The gift you gave to Mr. Peng, could it be this pipe?" Although Mr. Peng usually smokes, but now that he is sick, it is time to quit smoking, how can you send such a thing to lure him. ”

"Who said he was given a pipe?" Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "I bought this thing for myself, just enough to beat my back......"

As he spoke, Fang Yuan turned his backhand, shaking the head of an egg-sized cigarette stick and slowly beating it on his back, using a very uniform and regular force, making him feel refreshed.

"I'm convinced of you, like an old man in his seventies and eighties, I really will enjoy it." Bao Longtu couldn't help but be sarcastic, and then asked: "What about the gift, what is it?" ”

"This is it." Fang Yuan handed over the wooden Ruyi: "Peace and happiness, meaning auspicious, it is the best fit to give to Mr. Peng......"
