Originally, after sending off the aunt, Li Siyan pulled Xu Dong and asked with a smile: "Xiao Xu, thanks to you being there today, otherwise, I would have planted it again, hehe, people are getting older, and these eyes are becoming more and more unproductive." ”

Xu Dong smiled and replied, "Where! Uncle Li, in fact, if I wasn't there, the price that Uncle Li could give, I don't think it would be higher than 300,000, right, you are the palm master of business, no matter what other people's circumstances, you will not let yourself suffer, let yourself be profitable, that's for sure! ”

Li Siyan nodded, touched his conscience and said, when he looked at the painting, whether it was genuine or not, Li Siyan also gave a reserve price in his heart, although he didn't say it, but the price was indeed only 300,000.

Moreover, Xu Dong also said very reasonably, if he was not present, Li Siyan would never consider whether the old man of the aunt had uremia, and whether the little boy had no parents.

In other words, if Xu Dong was not present, the aunt would indeed get 300,000 yuan for selling this painting, but there would be absolutely no more than a penny.

Li Siyan sighed, Xu Dong is kind-hearted, this is good, but people are a little difficult, Xu Dong will do everything to help, like this business just now, but it is a real loss of 500,000 yuan, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that how many families will be lost.

Xu Dong didn't say much about Li Siyan's thoughts, but just smiled faintly.

It's just that Li Siyan paused for a moment, and then asked: "Xiao Xu, I looked at the collage just now, but I couldn't see a way, if it wasn't for your reminder, I really didn't find anything strange, hehe, you can see it at a glance, how did you do it?" ”

Originally, Li Siyan knew that Xu Dong had some "research" on antiques, but he didn't have many days with Xu Dong, and Li Siyan was also very curious about the extent of Xu Dong's "research" in this regard.

Today, this aunt happened to take this painting and showed Xu Dong her hand, and, strictly speaking, Xu Dong's hand seems to be a little more clever than Li Siyan, which makes Li Siyan want to know how Xu Dong found out first.

Sang Qiuxia also looked at Xu Dong very curiously, Xu Dong's eyesight is good, at this time Sang Qiuxia already knew very clearly, but I think that this business just now contains a lot of useful things, Sang Qiuxia naturally hopes that Xu Dong can explain it and enrich her knowledge and experience in this area.

Therefore, Sang Qiuxia, like Li Siyan, looked at Xu Dong expectantly.

However, when the aunt came in with the painting just now, Xu Dong could see from the breath of the painting that the painting was not a particularly valuable thing, and its value could be judged by the breath he saw.

In addition, after the painting was opened by Li Siyan, Xu Dong looked at it with perspective for a while, and found the flaw disguised as a crease, which reminded Li Siyan that Xu Dong was not easy to talk about this matter.

However, when he found the biggest flaw, Xu Dong expected that after all, Li Siyan and others would definitely ask him this question, so in response to their rhetoric, Xu Dong had already prepared a draft.

"Uncle Li, in fact, I also thought of it when I saw that crease, I thought so, you see, this painting, that aunt took it out, isn't it a scroll rolled into a scroll, according to common sense, since it is a painting rolled by a scroll, there is no crease at all, right......"

......After a pause, Xu Dong said: "According to the aunt, her painting has been on the TV station's treasure appraisal conference, and the price given by the appraisal expert is only 500,000 yuan. ”

Li Siyan was stunned, Li Siyan had also heard what the aunt said, but Li Siyan didn't care about it at all.

For Li Siyan, he doesn't go back to pay attention to what others say, let alone participate in the appraisal conference of the TV station, even if he says that he has been appraised by the director of the Palace Museum, he can't be the slightest bit true, this is not a question of who to believe or who not to believe, but an attitude.

――I am the one who eats this bowl of rice, so naturally I can't say what others say, and if something is in my own hands, I can see what it is, and that is the most important attitude!

Xu Dong said that the reasons for these two aspects, although very simple, not only fundamentally answered the doubts of Li Siyan and Sang Qiuxia, but also cleverly avoided identifying deeper things in calligraphy and painting.

It's not that Xu Dong doesn't want to say it, but those more advanced things, Xu Dong doesn't know, and he can't say it if he wants to!

However, just these two reasons that Xu Dong said were enough to bluff Li Siyan and Sang Qiuxia into being stunned, but both of them forgot a detail at that time: Xu Dong took the calligraphy and painting from the aunt's hand, and without even opening it to look at it, he started to negotiate the price with the aunt! With Xu Dong's character, it is impossible to just listen to the aunt and say that after expert appraisal, he will do it!

Xu Dong picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, smiled, and was about to ask about the jade processing factory again, when the third customer entered the shop today.

The third customer, a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old man, looks like a fashionable hairstyle, but obviously hasn't been taken care of for a long time, a pair of triangular eyes are bloodshot, but the eye sockets are as black as a giant panda, a mouth, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, not to mention, you can still smell a smoky smell from afar, the "talent" suit on the body is very straight, but it is obvious that the stains on the cuffs are slightly glowing.

As soon as this young man entered the door, he found that there were two fairy-like girls in the shop, with blood-red eyes, staring at Sang Qiuxia and Qiao Yanxue, so he refused to look away, and the Adam's apple was also sliding up and down, which was secretly swallowing saliva!

It's just that no matter who came to the shop, Sang Qiuxia immediately stood up, greeted him with a smile, and asked in a very sweet voice: "This big brother, is there anything you need my help with?" ”

The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes slanted at Sang Qiuxia's chest, and then he said with a smile: "Sister, brother is in a good mood today, come to take care of the business of your shop, hehe......"

As soon as the man spoke, the smell of smoke immediately made Sang Qiuxia quickly twist her head slightly, and replied politely: "Big brother, if you come to make a move, please come to our palm master's side, if you fancy the products in our store, please come here to see." ”

The man's eyes were full of eagerness to see Sang Qiuxia in his arms, and he finally smacked his mouth, and then said, "Sister, brother is here to send an antique to your shop today...... Family heirloom, handed down from the Qing Dynasty......"

Xu Dong looked at the man, and after a while, he stood up and said, "Big brother, can you take it out and have a look?" ”

The man reluctantly moved his gaze from Sang Qiuxia to Xu Dong, glanced at the clothes on Xu Dong's body, and found that the clothes on Xu Dong's body were much more expensive than the set of "talents" on his body, and his eyes suddenly showed a sourness: "Yo, little brother, you are here to soak this beautiful girl." ”

Qiao Yanxue smiled slightly and said, "We don't have anything pretty, but I can't wait to let this guy come to soak." ”

The man's eyes suddenly widened larger than eggs, and he looked at Xu Dong with eyes that could kill people.

Xu Dong smiled faintly and said, "I'm the boss here, you can tell me what you want to sell." ”

As soon as this man entered the door, almost all the people in the shop didn't have a good impression of him, and as soon as Xu Dong said this, Li Siyan naturally understood in his heart that Xu Dong wanted to do this business himself.

The man turned his head to Li Siyan with disdain and said, "Shopkeeper, I am an antique, but the origin is not small, can this little boss see it?" ”

Li Siyan smiled "hehe": "Even if there is any origin, you have to show it to let us see what the origin is, right, if it is really a good thing, our boss is also here, and he will definitely give you a very fair price." ”

The man slowly took out a pocket watch from his pocket, approached it in front of Li Siyan, and said very arrogantly: "Swiss pocket watch made in 1840, enamel painted gold case......"

Xu Dong smiled faintly, interrupted the man's words, and asked, "How much do you want for this watch?" ”

The man was stunned, looked at Li Siyan, and said, "Five hundred thousand!" 500,000, let you earn 200,000! ”

Xu Dong smiled, took the pocket watch from the man's hand, glanced at it slightly, and said, "Fifteen thousand, I'll take it and put it on the shelf to make up a number." ”

"You ......" The man's originally black face was even darker: "I know that you don't know the goods, fifteen thousand, how many you have, if you sell it to me, I will ...... it"

"Hehe......" Xu Dong laughed, finished laughing, and said: "Big brother, you have a good gold shell enamel, first of all, your gold shell is gold-plated, and your watch will not move, that is, it is a bad watch, and secondly, your watch, the biggest problem is not that it can't move, but that the core inside is ......."

The man jumped up all of a sudden, and said angrily: "Nonsense, nonsense, an old-fashioned pocket watch of nearly two hundred years, you can still let it go, you let it go, I'll take a look......"

Xu Dong was unmoved, smiled faintly, and said: "Or, let's make a bet, I said that your pocket watch must be a plastic core, if it is, 10,000, I will buy your watch, if not, you take back the watch, I will lose you another 1 million, how about it?" ”

When the man heard Xu Dong say this, his eyes lit up, and he pondered slightly, his watch had just been turned out from home, and he didn't know whether it would be a plastic core or not.

However, if it is a plastic core, this watch is obviously not worth 10,000, and an empty shell with enamel color and gold plating cannot be worth 10,000.

Having said that, even if it is really plastic in it, the boss still buys it for 10,000 yuan, how to say, he still earns it.

But what really made this man very tempted was another condition that Xu Dong said, if it wasn't for the plastic core, he would lose a million to himself! A million!
