Chapter 245: Tang Sancai

Seeing the sneaky appearance of the man, Li Jian was a little vigilant. Although he didn't play much with the collection himself, he had seen his father being deceived a lot, and Li Jian's vigilance was much higher than that of ordinary people.

However, being called an "expert", Li Jian is still secretly happy. Especially in front of Jiang Lili, Li Jian's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he even had a good impression of the short man who came over. Subconsciously asked, "What good things do you have?" ”

The man heard Li Jian ask himself, looked up and looked around again, and then approached Li Jian, and said in a low voice: "Ghosts, they are all pits." ”

Li Jian frowned, the words "ghost goods" and "shengpit", Li Jian had heard his father talk about them, but in fact, he didn't really remember it, but he vaguely felt that it should be related to tomb robbing.

At the thought of robbing the tomb, Li Jian's eyes suddenly lit up.

The so-called antiques are naturally things that need to be old to be called antiques. However, there are too few artifacts that have been preserved intact to the present day, and many antiques have been unearthed from ancient tombs. The state protects the excavation, and the things that are dug up are naturally in the museum, and most of the things circulating in the market are from tomb robbing.

But tomb robbing is illegal, so even if these tomb robbers have good things in their hands, they don't dare to buy and sell in a fair and bright way, and most of them are in a hurry to sell, and the price can't be too expensive, which makes it possible for people to pick up leaks.

Since it is a tomb robber, it is easier to understand the sneaky appearance of this person in front of him, after all, he is doing illegal things, who dares to be upright?

Thinking about it like this, Li Jian relaxed a little in his heart, and had the heart to see what good things he had.

"Friend, I'll tell you the truth, I just dug a hole and got some good things, but a brother was injured and was in a hurry to exchange money for treatment. We have old things in our hands, and we don't want to find those who don't understand to delay our efforts, I think you are an expert, and you can understand whether the things are good or not, and it will save us more words. ”

As soon as the man said this, Li Jian moved his mind: "Where are your things?" ”

The man pointed casually: "It's not far ahead, walk for a few minutes." ”

"Okay, go check it out!"

Seeing that Li Jian was going to go with that person, Jiang Lili was vigilant, grabbed Li Jian and said, "Why don't you bring good things to the market?" ”

The man stopped, as if he didn't know how to explain it. But I heard Li Jian whisper: "Their things can't see the light, so naturally they don't dare to take them to the market to set up stalls." ”

When the man heard this, he said, "My friend is really an expert, and I can't hide anything from you. Things are nearby, not far away, you go to see, talk about what you see, leave if you don't see it, don't delay your efforts. ”

Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Li Jian became a little proud, pulled Jiang Lili and said, "Let's go, go with him to have a look, maybe you will miss it!" ”

"Then do you want to call Xu Tao?" Jiang Lili was obviously still a little worried about the man's sneaky behavior.

"No, let's go and see it first, if you can't see it, you don't need to call them, if you think it's good, just call them!"

Although Li Jian believes in Xu Tao, but men always have their own pride, and he doesn't want to rely on Xu Tao, if the things that are missed are discovered by themselves, doesn't that also mean that he has vision?

So, the two followed the little man out of the market, walked for a while down the winding path, and came to a small inn.

Along the way, the little man kept looking around, as if to make sure that no one was following.

Li Jian felt that his sneaky behavior was in line with the identity of a "tomb robber", but he had some expectations for picking up leaks.

The little man led the two into a room in the basement of the small hotel, where a bald man was waiting inside.

The little man went in and gestured to the bald head. The bald head glanced at Li Jian, nodded, and walked out without saying a word.

Seeing the bald head go out, the little man beckoned Li Jian and said, "Sit, he'll be here in a while." ”

The small hotel was in poor condition, with small rooms, no windows, dim lighting, and a damp musty smell in the air.

The only two wooden benches were also black and dirty, which made people not have the courage to sit up.

Li Jian frowned slightly: "Why aren't things here?" ”

"We're afraid of accidents!" The little man said with a smiling face: "Of course, those who do our business of touching gold must pay attention to safety, and we can't put everything together." But it's nearby, don't worry, he'll be here in a moment! ”

The air in this room was really turbid enough, and the air mixed with the smell of smoke, sweat and mold made Li Jian and Jiang Lili a little uncomfortable, and they couldn't help frowning.

However, this environment made Li Jian believe that these two guys were tomb robbers, and the environment of this room was not like an ancient tomb, if it wasn't for tomb robbers, who would be able to adapt to this environment?

Fortunately, the bald head came back soon, and he still had a big bag in his hand.

The bald head came in with a bag, placed it on the ground, and without saying a word, opened the zipper, and took out an object wrapped in cloth and placed it on the ground.

Li Jian asked the bald head: "What kind of object are you wrapping here?" ”

The bald head didn't answer, took a step back and stood aside, looking at Li Jian.

The little man said, "He's a mute." As he spoke, he walked over and opened the cloth in which the object was wrapped.

"Hey, this is, Tang Sancai?" Seeing that the man opened the wrapped cloth to reveal a pottery horse, Li Jian couldn't help but call out.

"Is this Tang Sancai? How is it blue? Jiang Lili was a little puzzled, although she had never seen Tang Sancai's genuine products, she had always seen the pictures. The impression is all yellow and green, but why is this horse blue, is this Tang Sancai?

"You don't understand this!" Li Jian began to show his professional knowledge again: "Although Tang Sancai is mainly yellow, brown and green, there are actually many other colors, especially blue glaze. There is a saying called Sancai hanging blue, which is worth a lot, and it is Tang Sancai with blue glaze. ”

When the little man heard him say this, he gave a thumbs up and said: "My friend is really a connoisseur, this blue-glazed Tang Sancai is the best product in Tang Sancai. ”

Li Jian was proud, and squatted down to take a closer look at the horse, which was almost covered with blue glaze, with only a mane, saddle, tail, and some yellow, brown, and green glaze in the four hooves. It looks mottled and does look like an old object.

Li Jian looked at it for a while, felt that this thing was eighty percent real, thought about it and asked, "You are such an object?" ”

"Not really!" The little man said: "There are still a few good things, but the rules are the same, if you don't like this one, we will change it for you, and we will talk about it if you like it." This rule is also for everyone's safety. ”

Li Jian can understand this little man's words, doing this kind of thing, of course you have to pay attention to safety. He liked the horses so much that he asked, "How much do you want to sell this horse for?" ”

The man didn't speak, but stretched out two fingers and shook them.

"Two thousand?" Jiang Lili didn't understand the value of this thing, but thinking that this was an antique after all, she was embarrassed to guess two hundred.

The little man shook his head: "The girl told a joke, how can you buy such a good Tang Sancai for two thousand?" It's 20,000! ”

"It's expensive!" Old God Li Jian shook his head on the ground. Although he doesn't know much about Tang Sancai's market. But bargaining is an instinct, besides, he has heard some Tang Sancai's knowledge, so he naturally wants to show off in front of Jiang Lili.

"Although your Tang Sancai is blue glazed, the shape is average, not vivid, and there are no people, the price of 20,000 yuan is a bit expensive. Besides, the glaze is mottled and has fallen off in many places, and this kind of quality is not good enough. ”

The little man said: "You are an expert, I can't lie to you, this object has been in the tomb for so many years, and it is normal for the glaze to fall off a little, otherwise how can it be an old object?" As for not bringing people, the three-color horse with people is not at this price. ”

Li Jian still shook his head, pointed to the horse's upturned front legs and said, "Look at this horse's legs, they were obviously glued later." That's a big discount! ”

The little man coughed, and said a little embarrassedly: "This foot was like this when we dug it out, but there is nothing missing, and it does not prevent the complete surname of this horse from being put back." Otherwise, I'll give you a cheaper price, and you can take it for 15,000, how about it? ”

Li Jian shook his head: "Eight thousand at most"

"This ......" The little man's face was hard to look at: "You are too ruthless in bargaining!" ”

Li Jian put down the horse, stood up and said, "If it doesn't work, forget it, we'll go!" ”

Although Li Jian didn't know much about the price of antiques, he was very good at bargaining, and he cut down on the basis of the price that the little man had made concessions. And he is well versed in the principle of bargaining, and never shows the expression of hope to get the object, but pretends to be indifferent, stands up, clapps his hands, and looks like if you don't agree, I'll leave.

When the little man saw that Li Jian was leaving, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, eight thousand is eight thousand!" ”

As he spoke, he sighed, as if he had lost a lot. If you don't wait for the money yourself, you will never agree to this price.

At the end, the little man handed the horse a bag and handed it to Li Jiandao: "Forget it, eight thousand yuan, it's yours!" ”

Li Jian took a step back: "You just put it on the ground!" ”

The little man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "My friend is really an expert, but I was careless, I think this price is a loss, and I am negligent for a while, don't care." ”

The reason why the little man said this is because of the rules of the antique industry, things cannot be directly handed over to the other party, but one party has stabilized after reading it, and let the other party take it for himself. Because most of the antiques are fragile and easy to damage, in case one accidentally breaks it, the responsibility is not clear. This is also the meaning of preventing people from touching porcelain.

He didn't know that the reason why Li Jian didn't take this thing was because he wasn't sure if he wanted to buy it. He doesn't have 8,000 yuan on him now, and before he buys something, he has to let Xu Tao palm his palm, which he has already thought about.
