Chapter 8 Antique Buyers
Zhao Zhuo stood up and looked out, only to see two more people in the yard, the older one was in his 30s, with a beard on his long face, as soon as he walked in, he squinted his eyes and looked around, as if he was looking for something, the other was only 21 or 2 years old, with a shaved head on his face, looking like a thief with eyebrows and rat eyes, and a sack in his hand, which seemed to contain something.
The bearded man smiled and said, "Big brother, we sincerely want to accept your pair of jade bracelets, do you think you want to consider selling?" ”
"No, no, that's what my mom left behind." Lin Dashan refused.
The bearded man smiled, stretched out three fingers and said, "Then I'll make this number, big brother, you think about it?" ”
"Three thousand? Don't sell! Lin Dashan shook his head and said.
The bearded man smiled: "It's not three thousand, it's thirty thousand." ”
"Thirty thousand?" Lin Dashan's eyes lit up, and the hand holding the watering can forgot to move.
When Zhao Zhuo saw this, his heart moved, could these two people be here to buy antiques? At this time, Uncle Lin also stood up and walked out, and Zhao Zhuo followed.
Seeing Uncle Lin come out, the bearded man greeted him with a smile and said, "Big brother, 30,000 yuan is a lot." There are fewer people who know the goods these days, you see how real I am, if I meet a black-hearted person, I can say 3,000 yuan at most. ”
"The pair of bracelets in my house were left over from the Qing Dynasty and passed down from my grandmother." Uncle Lin said.
"Uncle, the jade bracelet is indeed an antique, but the water color is not good, this 30,000 yuan is already the highest price, I don't know if I will lose money if I buy it back." The bearded man said.
The man next to him echoed: "We know that Uncle Lin is a family with a good heart, and he treats the neighbors around him for free, and he charges very little for the consultation, so he pays such a high price." You see it's not easy for us, all year round in the wind and rain, collecting an antique takes a lot of money, and sometimes it loses when you buy it. ”
Hearing what the two said, Lin Dashan was a little tempted, and said to his father: "Dad, look ......."
"Whatever you want, anyway, the bracelet is reserved for your daughter-in-law according to the rules." Uncle Lin felt a little sorry, "Young people nowadays, what do you only like about diamond rings, and when you encounter a jade bracelet, it's not a stall." ”
Lin Dashan smiled bitterly: "I don't want to sell it to my daughter-in-law, Dad, your house should actually be renovated, it will leak when it rains, and you are giving people free medical treatment, and my money really can't be drawn, if this jade bracelet can be sold for 30,000 yuan, I think it will be done." ”
When the bearded man saw that Lin Dashan intended to sell, he immediately said: "Pepsi filial piety comes first, Brother Lin is really a filial son." In fact, I worked so hard in this city, that is, in order to earn a few dollars, I went back to my hometown to repair my old father's house. ”
"Yes, yes, our Brother Qi is also a filial person, as the saying goes, filial piety people are kind-hearted people, so don't worry, we will never deceive you in price, this 30,000 yuan is definitely worth it." The inch head also chimed in.
Zhao Zhuo saw the two of them talking, and felt that something was wrong, although it was the first time he had seen someone buy antiques, but this was definitely a profitable thing, and there was absolutely no such thing as losing money.
Since Uncle Lin's family saved themselves, they had to help them check it, so he said, "Uncle Lin, can I take a look at this jade bracelet?" ”
"Absolutely." Uncle Lin smiled, and after Lin Dashan took out the pair of jade bracelets from inside, he handed them to Zhao Zhuo.
Seeing a strange young man who wanted to see the jade bracelet, Brother Qi and the others didn't think much about it, they just thought it was the neighbor's child.
Zhao Zhuo looked at this jade jade bracelet, there is a feeling of emerald ** flow, both the weight and the texture are full of a thick and atmospheric charm, jadeite is a large number of things imported into China during the Ming and Qing dynasties, there are countless jade bracelets made of jadeite, to modern times, tens of thousands of can be bought, but like the hand of such a color of the upper layer of the jade bracelet with extraordinary workmanship is rare, Zhao Zhuo's mind flashed the auction house page after page of auction information, and soon the price of this jade bracelet was counted.
He said to Lin Dashan: "Brother Lin, I think it's better to take this pair of bracelets to the auction house [***]." ”
Hearing Zhao Zhuo say this, Brother Qi's face changed slightly, and then he laughed loudly: "This little brother is too relaxed, then the auction house can sell anything?" The price is not tens or millions, and people won't even let you in. ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly, and said leisurely: "Who said that this jade bracelet is not worth tens of millions?" ”
He stared at Zhao Zhuo and sneered: "Friend, you have to be careful to flash your tongue when you speak, there is no such shop in this village." I, Bai Xiaoou, dare to guarantee that we are the only ones who dare to spend 30,000 yuan on the jade bracelet. ”
Brother Qi's face sank even more, and he said with the attitude of an old connoisseur: "Young man, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand the price, it doesn't matter if you disturb our business, let this big brother suffer, it's not something you can afford." ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled lightly: "Even if I don't know the exact price of this pair of bracelets, but with this quality, it is definitely more than 30,000." ”
Lin Dashan saw that he didn't seem to be joking, and said in surprise: "Really? ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled and said, "Then Brother Lin, you ask them, do you accept 100,000?" ”
"One hundred thousand?" Lin Dashan was taken aback, and Uncle Lin was also a little surprised.
Brother Qi frowned even more when he heard this, and his head jumped up suddenly, and he said like thunder: "One hundred thousand, you might as well go and grab it!" ”
Brother Qi stared at Zhao Zhuo coldly, his eyes fell on Lin Dashan, and said, "Brother Lin, I will give another thousand yuan at most, thirty-one thousand, which is the highest price." It's up to you to believe in me or the young man around you. ”
Facing Brother Qi's cold eyes, Zhao Zhuo seemed calm and calm, and he knew very well in his heart that this Brother Qi still seemed to be very sophisticated, if he immediately added tens of thousands now, it would definitely make Lin Dashan doubt the purchase price of the jade bracelet, so he only added a thousand yuan.
However, seeing that he was so calm on the surface, Zhao Zhuo could hear the irregular beating of his heart, and he was also desperate.
Bai Xiaoou waved his fist threateningly on the side, as if Zhao Zhuo was going to talk nonsense again, he would be polite.
Zhao Zhuo smiled faintly and whispered in Lin Dashan's ear, Lin Dashan's eyes were as big as copper bells when he heard it, his nostrils gasped violently, he turned his head mechanically, and said in a trembling voice: "Little Brother Zhao...... You...... Not kidding, right? ”
"Brother Lin, your family saved my life, how could I lie to you?" Zhao Zhuo said seriously.
Lin Dashan saw that Zhao Zhuo didn't seem to be lying, so he said to Brother Qi and the others: "I'm sorry, I don't sell bracelets anymore." ”
Brother Qi's face became even more gloomy when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Lin, I bought this bracelet sincerely, even if I lose a little, I will pay the price of 100,000 yuan, cash!" ”
Although 100,000 yuan in cash is indeed tempting, Lin Dashan is not a stupid person, hearing the price Zhao Zhuo said in his ear, he still cares about 100,000, and waved his hand very resolutely.
Brother Qi still refused to give up, and said with a suppressed anger: "Then let me take the liberty of asking, how much does this young man cost?" ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly, raised a finger and said, "I'll make this number." ”
Brother Qi's pupils dilated suddenly, this number is obviously not ten thousand, then it can only be one million! The corners of his mouth hooked up a sly smile: "You can also take out a million?" ”
Zhao Zhuo said with a smile: "Even if I can't take it out, it shouldn't be difficult to sell this pair of jade bracelets to Duke Auction House." ”
Hearing Zhao Zhuo say the words Duke Auction House, Brother Qi knew that the young man in front of him was a bit of a doorway, and when he saw that the acquisition was hopeless, he glared at Zhao Zhuo fiercely: "Good boy, count yourself as a kind!" ”
Bai Xiaoou turned his head from time to time as he walked out, staring at Zhao Zhuo viciously.
When the two of them went out, Uncle Lin asked, "Dashan, what is going on, what kind of auction house?" ”
Lin Dashan hurriedly said: "Brother Zhao said that our pair of jade bracelets can be sold for one million." ”
"What, a million?" No matter how calm Uncle Lin was, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Young man, you're not joking, are you?" ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly and said, "Does Brother Lin know that there is an appraiser association over there in Lao Street?" ”
"I think I've heard it said." Brother Lin said.
Zhao Zhuo said: "Actually, I am a member of the appraiser association. ”
Uncle Lin couldn't help but nod and praised: "I didn't expect that you are really not a simple young man, you are actually an appraiser." ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled modestly and said, "Tomorrow, Brother Lin can take this pair of jade bracelets to the association, and I will find a friend to help me do the appraisal, so that Brother Lin, you will never doubt my words." After the appraisal is issued, I will help you contact the people of the auction house, and at that time, this pair of jade bracelets will be auctioned for at least one million, and at that time, you will not need to repair the house for Uncle Lin, and you can buy one directly. ”
Lin Dashan gratefully shook Zhao Zhuo's hand and said, "It's really thanks to Brother Zhao, otherwise I would have suffered a loss, one million, I wouldn't be able to make so much money in my life." Those two people really dare to say that they are honest people, and they want to collect one million things for 30,000 yuan? ”
Zhao Zhuo smiled, the purchase and sale of antiques has been there since ancient times, although it is hard, but it has always been a profitable business.
The antique industry has a specific ethics and morality, is the buyer and seller in the field of knowledge, so many antique dealers are not bound by ordinary morality, it is completely based on the price of people, can keep the price as low as possible, with 50,000 to buy at least millions of antiques is not uncommon, and some people may even offer a price of several thousand yuan.
It's just that people nowadays have a wide range of knowledge and are smart enough, so antique buyers have also become very skilled in acquisition. However, even if the Lin family is not his savior, he can't help but intervene when he sees this kind of scene, and he can buy it, but at least at a reasonable price.
