Chapter 235: Quarrels
Nanhu, Wenchang Temple Antique Market, this place Wang Chan has not been here for a long time, originally wanted to make a difference in the officialdom, but did not expect to die before the teacher, this thing finally got a director who no one wanted, but in less than a week, it was directly taken down.
Even SITC Agricultural Trade City was directly demolished, and such an end can be imagined. Wang Chan felt that his luck might not be very good, didn't he look at the yellow calendar when he took office?
Anyway, now Wang Chan is unofficial and light. It's like saying that Section Chief Qin does ideological work for him, young people don't have a burden, the leader will arrange your work, just give yourself a few days off and go back to have a good rest.
In fact, the matter of Haifeng Agricultural Trade City, Wang Chan solved it very beautifully, if Ye Ming could not suppress it, then the people of Donghai Village might not be able to make something like it at this time. This kind of problem, no matter how it is, Wang Chan's ability to do things is seen above.
Therefore, the leader was also afraid that Ye Ming would have any ideas, so he directly asked Section Chief Qin to do ideological work for him, and then there was nothing to do with Wang Chan. Anyway, in such a situation, Wang Chan just waited to assign himself another job.
Yue Dong and a few of them have already packed tickets, these jobs in Nanhu, Wang Chan can choose by himself, as long as it is a flat adjustment, there is basically no problem.
Now Wang Chan is waiting for the matter of Haifeng Agricultural Trade City to be completely over, so that he can find a job he likes. At this time, Wang Chan naturally slipped into the antique market.
In fact, walking around the antique market is not as interesting as everyone thinks, basically ten times. If you can have one or two gains, it is already very lucky.
Therefore, Wang Chan did not think that he would be able to pick up such a statement when he arrived in the antique market. Luck is quite important, if you don't encounter a good thing, even if you walk around again, it is not interesting.
But this time. It seems that there are some exceptions, because this time Wang Chan encountered a more interesting thing. If you want to talk about the antique market, it is not that there is a legend of leakage in any case, otherwise it is not a legend.
But in such a large antique market, there are always some unexpected things happening.
For example, whoever has hit the eye, for example, who has got a high-imitation antique, can be fake or something.
There is also the question of who fooled a big customer and made tens of thousands of dollars at once. These things happen a lot in the antiques market. Because these merchants in the antique market, street vendors, etc., are counting on these people to live.
And today, this incident in the antique market made Wang Chan feel very curious. The two sides of the dispute are relatively unfamiliar customers in the antique market, and one aspect is a young man from Shudi, who has a wife in her twenties. I should be a novice in the industry, such a person. In general, in the antique market, there is no special possibility of making money.
He will pay tuition fees for two or three years before he has the opportunity to make money. Therefore, this kind of novice is most likely to have disputes with customers.
And the person who had a dispute with this young man made Wang Chan's eyes shine, about fifty years old. But he looks like he's about 40 years old.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Chan had the art of looking at people, looking at a person's age was not just from their appearance, they would have almost been deceived at this time.
This person made Wang Chan feel very curious, peers, this is a peer. And it is a peer with more means, and the way of health preservation is also quite powerful.
Therefore, at this time, Wang Chan began to observe, one is a talisman and the other is a newcomer to the antique shop, why do these two completely different people have disputes.
The talisman has the pride of the talisman, and if it weren't for a specific reason, the talisman would definitely not have any disputes with an irrelevant antique stall owner. I can't afford to lose this person.
What's more, it was a dispute with a young man, and such a thing is even more unfavorable. Therefore, in such a situation, Wang Chan's own idea is to start paying attention to this matter.
It should be that this young man has something that the talisman has taken a fancy to, otherwise there would not be such a good show. At this moment, Wang Chan took a look at the young man's stall, and found nothing special, eight or nine times out of ten, this is a rule of antique vendors, not eight or nine out of ten, that is, on a stall, eight or nine out of ten is something of no value, and even the possibility of a fake is very large.
Generally old qualified stall owners, will not put the boutique on their own stall at all, if it is said to be boutique, it is generally the stall owner is more familiar with the old customers, everyone is acquaintances, and the old customers generally have a certain experience, holding the things on the stall to fool the old customers that one is to show that they have no ability, no good things to customers, and this is disrespectful to the old customers, which is a slap in the face.
Therefore, when old customers come, the general stall owners will come up with some kind of high-quality products. If the other party is interested, you can talk about the price, otherwise you can laugh and let a cigarette or something, even if you have said hello.
Therefore, nine times out of ten, the average stall is something that is not of high value, or simply a fake. can be regarded as collectible antiques, that is, there are two or three pieces in the stall, which is already the conscience of the industry.
And this young man is obviously a newcomer, and his skin is not so thick, so on the stall, it is said that more than thirty percent of the things are favoritable.
This can also be regarded as a way for newbies to attract popularity. Although it is not considered to be very valuable, but if you buy it back to play, it is not bought as an investment, some rare books on this stall, some porcelain from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, etc., are quite good gadgets. There are even two bronzes, which are actually works in the style of the Tang and Song dynasties, which is quite a rough stall.
And this time. Wang Chan didn't find anything worth paying attention to at all. Therefore, he began to pay attention to the two people who were arguing.
A focal point of the argument between the young man and this talisman was a piece of porcelain.
It was a pastel porcelain, but this pastel porcelain cup was broken. This is a point of contention between the two sides.
Wang Chan didn't need to ask in detail, he could hear the ins and outs of this matter by standing there and listening. It turned out that this talisman was looking at things at the stall and didn't know what attracted him. Anyway, I just squatted there and watched it for more than half an hour.
If you are familiar with the old customers, then the stall owner will usually take out a small horse or something to send over. Because the old customers are customers who often buy things, even if they don't buy this time, they will be able to have business next time.
Therefore, it is also a special treatment for old customers. But the people on this talisman market have never seen it at all, and it should be a tourist, or a newcomer, and it's not an acquaintance anyway.
Therefore. Squatting there for more than half an hour, I didn't ask the price, just looked. And the young man who is the stall owner, you don't ask the price, and I don't ask what you want.
If the stall owner is a veteran, then generally looking at the customers squatting there for so long, they will find topics to chat, such as what are you playing? I'm playing porcelain, okay. Then you see, how about the red vase in the blue and white glaze of the official kiln of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, it is very rare to be in pairs, and this is in good condition. The preservation is also quite good, and you can't find a second pair of this thing in the entire Wenchang Temple antique market.
If you're playing bronze, there's something to recommend to you.
Anyway, it's just small talk, don't talk about it if you can't make a business, if you can pull an old customer to make a friend. That's a good result, too. But the young man is a novice after all, so if the talisman master doesn't speak, the young man is also a little ignorant.
However, the master asked for a few prices, and the young man said very politely. But it seems that this talisman is not the kind of person who likes to bargain, he asked the price, which means that there is no meaning of bargaining.
Such people are not uncommon in the antique market, so there is nothing surprising about them.
If a customer asks the price of a thing, then in such a situation, he likes the thing more, and there are five points that he may take it, otherwise he will not ask the price.
However, if the price offered by the stall owner is relatively different from the price he expected, then the customer's original desire for such a thing will be extinguished, and he will not even have any interest in bargaining.
Therefore, at this time, under normal circumstances, the customer asked the price, did not bargain, just did not want to buy, and leaving directly is the majority of choices. And in the antique market, there is absolutely nothing to stop customers from leaving.
But this talisman is not like this, he asked the price, there was no bargaining, but there was no intention of leaving. As a result, in the end, I don't know why, I smashed a Kangxi pastel vase from the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China on the stall.
This is naturally a dispute, and the talisman must have to buy this porcelain at the market price. This is not touching porcelain, if it is a person who touches porcelain, it will definitely not be a young man alone, there must be a gang here.
Moreover, at this time, Wang Chan also heard that this young man's stall is also relatively clean, and in such a situation, no matter what it is, it can be regarded as the conscience of the industry. Nothing antique traps or anything like that.
It's like putting two antiques up, you touch one and the other one falls, and so on, there's no such thing as this young man's stall. Therefore, at this time, the surrounding stall owners are on the side of the young people.
After all, young people are stall owners, and they can be regarded as peers, although they are newcomers, but at least they are their own people, and they will stand on their own side no matter what.
Moreover, young people also make a lot of sense.
Okay, now the problem is here, the key is that on the Kangxi pastel vase in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the name is relatively awkward.
How can there be a Kangxi pastel vase in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China? The year of Kangxi is the year of Kangxi, and the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China is the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China.
But the people in the line are actually very clear that this is a pastel vase imitated in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, although it is not a particularly precious antique, but if it is only used as a home decoration, then this vase should be regarded as a pretty good thing.
At this time, the master of the talisman naturally wants to compensate, if you fall yourself, no matter where the lawsuit goes, this compensation is impossible to be less. But in such a situation, the two sides had a dispute over the price.
This talisman insisted that this was a piece of porcelain from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, and it could have 300 yuan, which was considered to be the top of the sky. But the young man thought that this was a fine product from the official kiln, although it was the porcelain of the Kangxi Year imitated by the official kiln, but after all, it was a fine product, so the price should be around three thousand. At this time, price is a rather sensitive topic.
The porcelain of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China does not mean that there are no high-quality products, it does not mean that there is no high-priced porcelain, and there are also porcelain worth tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands. But after all, it is a very small number of fine products that are eligible to be treasured in the museum, such as several pieces of imperial porcelain in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China in the Forbidden City, which are very valuable.
But under normal circumstances, the porcelain of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the value of the official kiln is hundreds of thousands, and the key is to see what kind of porcelain and what kind of condition it is, which are all very important factors.
Therefore, if it is said that in this reasonable price range, how much this porcelain is worth is basically up to everyone's assumptions.
If both the buyer and the seller agree, a few hundred dollars is not without such a price.
If it is like saying that the young man said, it is worth three or four thousand, and this price, if it is agreed by both parties, it is not uncommon in the antique market.
Therefore, the price problem in this range is the most difficult problem to determine.
The talisman master and the young man quarreled over the issue of this price. Both sides think that they are the right side, and it is almost a situation where they will not give up a single step. (To be continued......)
