Chapter Twenty-Six: Picking Up the Leak
Early the next morning, Lin Qiufeng asked Xiaopang to help him ask for leave and came to Shang Tianli Mall again.
Yesterday I was looking for a fighting profession here, but I found nothing. Today, he is looking for a lucrative career, and this is the perfect place for him.
"Chef...... No wonder he has a big face and a thick neck, he turned out to be a chef, and he was still a B-level, well, the wife he married was very beautiful...... It's a pity that it's not for me, oh, it's a profession that doesn't suit me, it's not easy for a chef to get rich in a short period of time, let alone save money to save my father, I'm afraid I'll have to be kicked out of the luxury suite by the hotel in a few days. ”
"Merchant...... No way! No capital! ”
"Beautician...... Gee! When you have excess energy in the future, you can consider it, if you have something to do, you can beautify the little girls, we don't want money, we should learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds. ”
“……”
Lin Qiufeng drilled through the crowd, looking for a suitable career.
He told Li Wenjing that he wanted to save his father, but he didn't just talk about it, but he really had this plan. To save my father, the most basic point is to have money, not thousands, not tens of thousands, at least hundreds of thousands, or even more.
And that's just the cost of getting Daddy out of prison, and if you want Daddy to make a comeback, you'll need more money.
It is impossible for Lin Qiufeng to start a business and rise step by step. He needed to get the money quickly, and it took a lot of thought.
"Stock trading expert, D-grade. This can be had. However, it is not so easy to make money by speculating in stocks, there is no information channel, and experts are also standing aside! ”
Absorbing it easily, Lin Qiufeng sighed with emotion, knowing that ordinary people want to make money by speculating in stocks, it is simply a dream.
"E-class treasure expert? This can be there! Lin Qiufeng's eyes lit up and he copied without hesitation.
Immediately, a huge amount of knowledge rushed to the mind, and many things were instantly self-taught.
"Haha, this is good! Treasure Expert! Go to the antique city to pick up a leak, and it only takes seconds to develop! ”
Lin Qiufeng rubbed his hands together, excited.
The level of appreciation of the E-level is not high, however, Lin Qiufeng does not mind. As long as you go to the antique city, there are professionals everywhere, and it is not easy to find a C-level master?
With a few thousand units of energy, he will be able to advance quickly. At that time, with the appreciation level of the peak of the C-level, I believe it will not be so difficult to pick up the leak, right?
Just do what you say. Half an hour later, Lin Qiufeng had already appeared in Daci Pavilion, the most famous antique city in Shuncheng.
Looking at the dazzling array of antiques, Lin Qiufeng was not in a hurry to pick up the leaks, but was ready to improve his appreciation level first.
Although not all of the people who came to the antique city were connoisseurs, there were many people who really knew how to do it, and Lin Qiufeng did not have to make much effort, so he copied the C-level treasure appreciation profession from a shopkeeper in his sixties.
However, to his surprise, it was much more difficult to pick up the leak than he imagined.
C-level treasure appreciation profession, at a glance, can see that most of the cultural relics are fake, and the rest seem to be real, which needs to be carefully identified and it takes a lot of time to draw conclusions...... Fake!
Lin Qiufeng turned around for two or three hours, his eyes were sour, and finally he only looked at a round box of lacquerware. This round box is genuine, the shopkeeper has a price tag of 3,000 yuan, and it is put together with a bunch of imitations, there should be no value in it, Lin Qiufeng feels that it is an opportunity.
"How's it going, boy, have you taken a fancy to this round box?" The shopkeeper, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, came up and asked.
"I like things, but I don't like the price." Lin Qiufeng said.
The antique shop has always been deserted, and it has not been open for three years, and it has been open for three years. Most of the things sold in this shop are fake, so it is not like this, but there is not a single sincere customer to be seen for a long time. Now someone is bargaining, and the boss immediately comes to the spirit.
"Young man, this is a black lacquer inlaid luodian butterfly pattern round box in the middle of Kangxi! It was only used by the aristocratic prince's family back then, look at the workmanship, look at the quality...... I want you 3,000, which is definitely not expensive at all! "The shopkeeper's tongue is like a lotus.
"Hehe," Lin Qiufeng smiled faintly, "If it's really as you said, this is a black lacquer inlaid luodian butterfly pattern round box in the middle of the Kangxi period, then it's not just three thousand, I'm afraid it will have to be sold for thirty thousand, right?" ”
"You ......" The shopkeeper was choked up for a moment, opened his mouth, and asked rhetorically, "What is this not a black lacquer inlaid luodian flower butterfly pattern round box in the middle of the Kangxi period?" I'll hear you talk about it. ”
Obviously, this is the shopkeeper's eyesight in the school Lin Qiufeng. If Lin Qiufeng knows the goods, he will sell them at the price of the goods; If Lin Qiufeng doesn't know the goods, he will continue to change his tricks.
"This round box is an imitation." Lin Qiufeng didn't talk nonsense, and said directly.
As soon as the words came out, the shopkeeper's face immediately changed, "Young man, you can't talk nonsense!" How can I be an imitation? ”
Lin Qiufeng glanced at the shopkeeper lightly, and his tone was calm, "I said that, it naturally makes sense." You look at the hoop of this round box, carved with a hollow pattern, it is obviously the style of the Shanghai school during the Republic of China, how can the style of the Republic of China appear in the middle of the Kangxi period? ”
Lin Qiufeng asked rhetorically, staring at the shopkeeper.
"Hahaha, the afterlife is terrifying! A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy can have this vision, this insight, and sharp words, I can't do it at this age! At this time, there was a laugh, and a white-bearded old man looked at Lin Qiufeng with appreciation.
Lin Qiufeng turned his head and saw that the old man was dressed in a cloth shirt, with an extraordinary bearing, and he was followed by a middle-aged man and a young man in his twenties, who were respectful to him. Knowing that the old man was not an ordinary person, he smiled slightly and said modestly:
"The old man praised it falsely!"
"Hehe, you go on! The old man just sighed casually and didn't bother you to do business. The old man smiled and stretched out his hand to gesture.
"Hey, what a wise boy! Yes, this is indeed an imitation of the Republic of China period, but this can also be worth 3,000 yuan, right? It's been a hundred years anyway! "What people said was so clear and accurate, of course the shopkeeper couldn't insist that it was Kangxi's stuff, so he simply changed his rhetoric.
"If it weren't for a hundred years, it wouldn't even be worth a hundred. Now, I'll give you a thousand, will you sell it or not? Lin Qiufeng said.
"A thousand is too little! Two thousand dollars, two thousand dollars you take! ”
"One thousand and five! One person gives way. That's my bottom line. Lin Qiufeng finally added.
"Good! One thousand five is one thousand five! The boss had an expression of killing pigs and cutting meat, "I'll just open an auspicious business." To be honest, it hasn't opened until now! This thing also cost 1,400 when I entered! Sell it to you for 1,005 and I won't make any money! ”
The shopkeeper said this, of course Lin Qiufeng would not take it seriously. Maybe it's just a hundred and eighty purchase price! Of course, Lin Qiufeng didn't care about these, he only knew that he had really earned money by spending 1,005 to win this round box.
Because, this round box is not as simple as an imitation.
Fifteen hundred yuan, the money and goods are clear, Lin Qiufeng is holding the round box, happy.
"Huh? Wait a minute! The old man smiled and watched the transaction be completed, turned around and was about to leave, when he was suddenly stunned.
"Huh? Is there anything wrong with the old man? Lin Qiufeng turned around and asked.
"Young man, can you show me this round box?" The old man asked.
"Okay!" Lin Qiufeng nodded.
What he bought for more than 1,000 yuan, he didn't treat it as a treasure. What's more, looking at the old man's bearing, he doesn't look like an ordinary person.
The round box was placed on the counter and reopened, and the old man looked at it carefully, and later, he took out a magnifying glass and looked at it very carefully.
Finally, take a breath and put the magnifying glass away.
"Hehe, it seems that the old man has also seen the doorway!" Lin Qiufeng smiled.
"Huh? So, young man, you've already seen the doorway? The old man asked in surprise.
The shopkeeper has been watching from the side, seeing that this old and young man is extremely deed-worthy, he has long been itching, after all, this is what he just sold!
"I said two, you guys don't play dumb riddles, what kind of door is it?" The shopkeeper asked anxiously.
"This round box is Kangxi's thing." Lin Qiufeng didn't hide it either, and said directly.
He wasn't afraid that the shopkeeper would regret it. The rules of the antique world, no one can go back on the money after the money and goods are cleared. After all, the antique test is eyesight, and your real thing is sold as a fake, so that people can pick up the leak and regret it, which is definitely impossible.
In the same way, if you buy a fake thing at a high price, it is called an eye-catcher, and it is also deserved. Unless there is a real suspicion of fraud, it cannot be reversed.
"Oh? How can it be? What you said just now is right, the style of carving on this hoop is indeed Shanghai-style! "After buying this thing, it is obvious that the shopkeeper also took a good look at it.
"This round hoop belongs to the Republic of China, but it doesn't mean that this round box is also from the Republic of China!" Lin Qiufeng smiled.
The old man also touched his beard and nodded in admiration. Obviously, his views are the same as Lin Qiufeng's.
"Oh?"
The shopkeeper approached the round box, looked at it carefully, and after a few minutes, finally sighed, his face full of remorse.
"Hey! Sure enough! This round box is really Kangxi's, and this round hoop was added later. ”
Being able to open an antique shop, naturally has this good eyesight, I didn't see it before, but now after Lin Qiufeng's reminder, I intend to observe in this aspect, or rather, it is reverse reasoning, the difficulty is much lower, and I can see it immediately.
"Oops! A good thing from Kangxi made me sell it for 1,500, what a loser! The shopkeeper turned green in remorse and slapped himself lightly in the face.
However, there is no intention of repentance...... Of course, the money has been cleared, and it is useless to regret it.
"Haha, boss, you don't have to be sad, who hasn't been eyed in our business? Moreover, this goods are just in your hands for a while, I believe you will not lose money, right? The old man laughed and was relieved.
"That's right! However, the two hundred dollars I earned compared to the value of this box...... It's not worth mentioning! The shopkeeper looked at the round box and admired with remorse.
