Chapter 366: Acquaintances
found a porridge shop nearby, Xu Dong and Mu Siqing got out of the car, and warmly invited the female driver to drink a bowl of porridge with everyone.
The female driver shook her head with a smile, jokingly saying that now it is the two-person world of Xu Dong and Mu Siqing, and the female driver is very envious of this romance, but she is also embarrassed to make this light bulb.
Sending away the female driver, Mu Siqing still held Xu Dong and entered a porridge shop named "Sister-in-law Lin".
In a small porridge shop, it was very lively, seven or eight tables, all of which were sitting, Mu Siqing and Xu Dong, had no choice but to share a table with others.
Fortunately, it was two girls who drank porridge at this table, and they didn't mind sharing a table with them.
In this sister-in-law Lin's porridge shop, there are quite a lot of porridge styles, what kind of minced meat porridge, fragrant rice porridge, millet porridge...... Wait, there are more than a dozen in total, and Xu Dong has a great appetite.
Mu Siqing asked for a very light japonica rice porridge, Xu Dongke was not polite, and asked for two bowls of minced meat porridge in one go, and a few pickles.
Mu Siqing used a white porcelain spoon to scoop some clear porridge a little, tried it, and the temperature was quite suitable.
Xu Dong didn't pay so much attention to it, as soon as he saw that the temperature was not hot or cold, he picked up the porridge bowl and drank it with a snort, and in the blink of an eye, a bowl of minced meat porridge made Xu Dong drink it cleanly.
The two girls opposite, looking at Xu Dong's "rude" appearance, couldn't help but laugh.
Mu Siqing swallowed a mouthful of porridge slowly, and when she saw the two girls looking at Xu Dong and laughing, she glared at Xu Dong at the moment, and quietly kicked Xu Dong under her feet.
Although it's not a very high-end place here, most of the porridge at this time is not like breakfast, so I drink it in a hurry, and then rush to work.
Xu Dong smiled and ate two bites of pickles, but before he could swallow a mouthful of pickles, Xu ** froze.
Seeing Xu Dong's strange expression, Mu Siqing put down the spoon and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Xu Dong really passed for a while, then scratched his head and said, "Oh no, I promised to go home and have dinner with them, ...... at this time."
"That's it......" Mu Siqing blamed very coquettishly: "I thought it was a big deal, isn't it impossible to go back?" ”
Xu Dong shook his head, quickly picked up another bowl of minced meat porridge, drank it all in one go, then put down the porridge bowl, touched his mouth, and shouted: "Boss checkout......"
Mu Siqing looked at Xu Dong angrily, she finally came out to eat porridge, and now she is ......
Annoyed, Mu Siqing put down the spoon and stopped eating.
Xu Dong looked at Mu Siqing in disdain: "You eat slowly, eat slowly, I'll wait for you to ......"
Mu Siqing gritted her teeth, pushed away the porridge bowl in front of her, stood up, and walked out without looking back.
Xu Dong took out the money, settled the account, and hurriedly chased after him.
As soon as he got out of the porridge shop, Mu Siqing was looking for a taxi, Xu Dong stood beside Mu Siqing, and asked curtly, "Where are you going?" ”
Mu Siqing turned her head and said angrily: "Go home, otherwise, someone will break their promise." ”
Xu Dong laughed dryly a few times, and wanted to laugh a few words, but after thinking about it, he just scratched his head.
Unfortunately, at this time, although there are cars on this street, taxis are very rare, and it is not easy to see one, but it was taken first.
As a last resort, Xu Dong and Mu Siqing had to walk towards the street while looking for a taxi.
Unexpectedly, the two walked forward for a while, but saw one of the small alleys on this street, which was even more lively, and there were several rooms in it
There are shops with the word "dang" on them, and there are also some vendors with stalls.
However, these stalls have everything to buy, some sell vegetables, fruits and vegetables, some sell small tools, and some sell herbal supplements...... There are those who wander around and sell, and there are those who carry burdens and stop as they go, and there are mixed fish and dragons...... There are so many different kinds of tricks.
What attracted Xu Dong's attention was a grocery stall, which was placed on the edge of the alley, spread on the ground with a piece of oilcloth, pressed with a few stones on the side, and occupied a section of land five or six meters long. The same is a plum pattern thin neck vase, in addition, there is a piece of jade jade cut in half, and most of the bronze objects have mottled green rust, which looks ancient.
Now counterfeiting, only bronze is the most convenient, some imitators use salt, vinegar, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and other chemicals to corrode copper, or put the new imitation bronze in the damp ground to bury it for a few years, although the surface of the bronze will also produce patina under the violent chemical action, but these rusts are only a short period of young rust, and have not experienced a long and complex oxidation process, will not show that kind of coordination and nature, imitators will try all kinds of ways to make up for it, makes it look like it has gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes, and ordinary people can't see it, but Xu Dong is a hole in it.
The two pieces of porcelain, the plum pattern vase, the small mouth, the short neck, the plump shoulders, the thin bottom, and the circle feet, were originally a high imitation, whether it is the smooth lines of the painting, or the fleshy texture of the glaze, or the aged pulp, it is almost close to 80% similarity.
If you want to be bright and bright, the price is almost tens of thousands of yuan, but unfortunately, this high imitation bottle is good to fall into, and it actually fell into the "Tang Imperial System", so that people with a little vision can see it at a glance, and the high imitation has become a fake.
Not to mention the blue and white plates, the old mud and the new tires are purely soaked in potion.
- These are the "antiques" on this stall!
However, Xu Dong could see that these were fakes - because Xu Dong couldn't see a trace of treasure on these things.
There are a lot of jade pieces here, hundreds of pieces, but in addition to shoddy, some are fundamentally fake.
For example, if the small pendant sold for more than 100 yuan on this stall, the purchase price is only a few yuan, even if the cost of one qiē is included, in the past, in Xu Dong's Niu Ge pawnshop, the selling price will not exceed 20 or 30 yuan, but here, the lowest price has to be 100, of course, to buy this kind of people, of course, "Kaizi" is the majority.
In addition, there are many fakes, and in the auction field, the sky-high fakes are far away from ordinary people after all, and there are only a few people who suffer from them.
Because it looks white, the jade texture is delicate and soft to the touch, and the jade plate is very delicate and carefully studied, all of which are pressed into the mold with jade powder, so the jade plate made of this jade powder has almost reached the point of being fake, and even more, it has also made a series of textures such as "cotton" in the "jade" made of this jade powder, which makes it difficult for experts to distinguish between true and false, and some counterfeiters have mixed crystal and other powders into the jade powder, which has reached the standard of real jade in terms of hardness. Sometimes even the machine is difficult to detect, and even more so, some jade variegated materials with very poor quality and low price are used, or secondary materials with strict stone properties are forged, and then artificially strengthened and corroded after forming, resulting in the formation of a very thick oxide corrosion skin layer on the surface of the jade, which is a danger to the health of the human body.
Although Xu Dong doesn't know all kinds of details, with Xu Dong's almost bewishing eyes, he can see at a glance the truth and falsehood and value.
Xu Dong looked at this stall, he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore, almost dragged Mu Siqing, and walked to the edge of the stall, the owner of the stall was a middle-aged woman with a big wallet hanging on her fat waist, in her thirties, she was extremely shrewd at first glance, with sharp teeth and a particularly powerful mouth.
What piece of jade is an old pit jade, with absolute quality assurance, and one hundred will be paid for a fake...... What that piece of porcelain is also real, it was just imported back from the "soil crawler", because it is restricted from circulation, so it does not dare to be bought and sold in the market with great fanfare......
In short, the things on her stall are all "good things", genuine, and you won't be fooled if you don't go back no matter how much you spend!
What about these things, Xu Dong naturally has a bottom in his heart, just look at the breath of these things, he will know whether he will be fooled, but Xu Dong will not expose it - it's okay if you don't buy it, after all, the person who sells these things here is not a person, but an acquaintance of a whole street, if you expose one, you will offend the boss of the whole street, and you have nothing to offend the people of the whole street, and you won't do it if you are full.
Besides, I know it's fake, and I still waste expressions with people, it's just nothing to look for, no, it's to find a draw.
Xu Dong stopped here, naturally he didn't want to buy any jade antiques on this stall, there was nothing to buy these things, even the half-opened piece of jadeite half the size of a football was soaked in medicinal water, what else was there to buy.
Xu Dong stopped here because he saw an acquaintance, strictly speaking, only half an acquaintance, the guy who was smashed by Xu Dong last time, Zhang Juncheng!
At this time, Zhang Juncheng was holding a porcelain bottle in his hand, bargaining with her husband, who was about a female stall owner.
With Zhang Juncheng, it can be regarded as not knowing each other, now that I think about it, Xu Dong also feels a little funny, but Xu Dong's uncle Zhou Tianqi is now working under Zhang Juncheng, and when he sees Zhang Juncheng, Xu Dong wants to ask about his uncle's current situation.
Seeing Xu Dong and Mu Siqing, Zhang Juncheng raised a porcelain cup in his hand, and greeted Xu Dong and Mu Siqing very warmly: "I'll go, little brother Xu, why are you here?" ”
Xu Dong stepped forward, smiled, and said, "Brother Zhang, do you like this too?" ”
Zhang Juncheng said with a smile: "I'll take a look, there are no good devices, just take a look, mom pulls a bar, just this broken bottle, he still wants a thousand two, I'll take it, the money is too fast, by the way, you are doing this, you should be an expert, can you introduce how much this thing is worth...... I'll them, lest they take me as a coward to clean up! ”
Xu Dong smiled, everyone is a businessman, Zhang Juncheng is now bargaining with others, even if Zhang Juncheng and Xu Dong are acquaintances, how can Xu Dong help Zhang Juncheng bargain.
What's more, in the business of this antique business, there is originally a rule that you can't talk too much.
The husband of the female stall owner saw that although Xu Dong and Zhang Juncheng were acquaintances, they didn't play anymore as soon as they chatted, and it was estimated that this business would be yellow, and he was very unhappy.
"Little brother, let's talk about business here, can we talk about it after we finish talking?"
