At first, everyone thought that the stone peel was genuine, but as soon as they saw the real thing, they were speechless for a while. Some well-meaning people told him that it was a fake, and he was not only not happy to hear it, but also said that others were jealous of his things.

Seeing that Shi Pai didn't listen to his good words, everyone stopped reminding him, it was all a joke.

It's just that no matter how good the things are, they can't be eaten as food, and the stone peel saw that the antique market was gradually rising, and the family had to use money, so he was ready to sell the things. So he contacted a few friends, saying that his treasure was going to be transferred, and asked if they wanted it.

However, the thing is so fake, it's strange that it can be sold, I asked a few friends in a row, and the other party either said that he didn't want it, or he didn't have enough money to buy it.

Seeing the unanimous attitude of these friends, Shi Paopi couldn't help muttering in his heart, but he didn't think that his things were fakes at this time, and thought that his friends thought that the price of his things was too expensive, so he simply took them to the auction company and prepared to auction them at the auction.

The person in charge of the auction company was immediately happy when he saw the things brought by the stone peel, and immediately said to the stone peel euphemistically that this thing was a fake.

When Shi Papi heard this, he was angry at the time, saying that I had asked so-and-so to identify it, and the other party said that if this thing was in ancient times, it was played by the emperor.

The person in charge smiled at the time: "Since it's if, doesn't that mean that this thing didn't exist at that time!" ”

Hearing this, Shi Peel was also stupid on the spot, and he only understood the meaning of the expert's words at this time, but after all, he bought this thing for 20,000 two, of course he couldn't be so desperate, so he went to several auction companies next.

among these companies. With the exception of one, everyone else said that the thing was a fake. The other one said that the thing was very good, and it was estimated at five million. It can be used as the main lot of their company's next auction, but they have to pay the catalogue fee upfront, which adds up to several thousand.

Shi Pap Pi is not good eyesight, he is not stupid, he heard that his things can be worth five million, and his heart is bubbling, but then when he heard what catalogue fee he had to pay, he immediately understood that he had encountered a scam company.

The kind of company that Stone Peel encountered is not unique. Companies like this. Generally, they use the trick of "false appraisal and overestimation of the collection" to deceive the seller into sending the auction in order to obtain a high catalogue fee.

How to deceive, in fact, is also very simple, these companies generally get the contact information of Tibetan friends through the industry, and then contact you, saying how good your things are, how good they are, how good they are, and how they can be auctioned, and then they advocate how strong their companies are and how many buyers there are. Trick the Tibetan friends into the past.

If you go, regardless of whether your collection is real or not, their "experts" will always give you an exaggerated estimate that you can't even think of. It's easy for you to fall into their trap, and the purpose of doing so is to make you happy, and then ask for a treasure fee. And it's much higher than the price on the market.

Then, they say your collection is ready to be auctioned. But for the sake of traveling exhibitions, or to highlight your collection. A catalogue fee or publicity fee of 12% is charged according to the starting price.

Compared with the evaluation of millions or tens of millions of lots, the catalogue fee of a few hundred or thousands of yuan is insignificant. As a result, some Tibetan friends fell for the trick because of greed for money.

As for the things that are received, what should I do? These companies will not lose your things, but wait for a while and then return them to you, saying that they are unsuccessful.

Of course, there are also companies that choose to preview and auction quickly for the sake of long-term planning. They will also follow the example of regular auction companies and choose star-rated hotels for preview and auction, but they generally go through the motions, and the buyers are all trusted, and there will be basically no turnover.

To say, if it was a few days ago, the stone peel might still be fooled, but because he has been going to the auction company for the past few days, some friends are worried that he will suffer this kind of loss, so they told him the doorway. Therefore, as soon as he heard that the other party wanted a catalogue fee, he immediately picked up his things and left.

Thinking that the thing he bought at a high price was actually a fake, Shi Paopi was immediately very depressed, and the family was still in a hurry to use the money at that time, and his heart was full of regret. Fortunately, within a few days, he bought a good thing by mistake and sold it for fifteen thousand, although it did not make up for the shortfall, but it could be regarded as a solution to the urgent need of the family.

Since then, he has been much more cautious in buying things, but with his eyesight, it is not uncommon for him to buy the wrong thing or sell something missing.

"Hey, what you said, how can such a good thing have such a price as yours? Look at it, such a good painting on this bottle, maybe it was painted by a famous artist at that time, can you do it at this price? Add a little more ......"

When Chu Chen came back to his senses, he saw Shi Paopi holding a blue and white character porcelain vase, looking like he might suffer a loss, and exaggerated with the guests.

Chu Chen stepped forward to take a look, the blue and white figure porcelain vase in Shi Papi's hand was simply an imitation of the Republic of China period, and the quality was not very good, as he said, what kind of famous painter painted it.

The guest was not very old, and when he saw the appearance of the stone peel, he frowned for a while, and finally shook his head: "I can't add more, and the money I bought for my father's mobile phone is not enough!" Besides, the price is quite reasonable, and if it is more, I might as well go to the store and buy it! ”

Seeing that it was in a stalemate, Shi Papi thought about it, and glanced at the guest again, this look suddenly made his eyes light up, and then said with a sad face: "This little brother, I am also a small business, and it is not easy to be exposed to the wind and sun, you will let me earn some money, otherwise, you can use the watch in your hand to offset it!" ”

Hearing Shi Pap Pi say this, Chu Chen and the vendor next to him almost burst out laughing, and the guest was also stunned, a little at a loss for a while, after a while, he shook his head and said, "No, I want a hundred when I buy this watch!" ”

Shi Pai said with a smile: "I bought it for a hundred, but I think your watch should have been worn for a long time, and it must be depreciated!" Besides, the old ones don't go, the new ones don't come, and you see that you are not bad at money, and you can also buy a new watch when you are done......"

Then, the stone peel was stunned for a while, and the guest was dizzy, and he really gave him the watch.

Shi Peel smiled and put the money in his pocket, put the watch to his ear, listened to the ring, and then put it on his hand, and said with a smile: "Now it's convenient to see the time!" ”

Seeing the appearance of the stone peel, Chu Chen really couldn't cry or laugh, to be able to make the appearance of the stone peel in business, it really has to be a certain level.

Shi Papi raised his head and saw Chu Chen standing in front of his stall, and hurriedly complimented with a smile on his face: "Boss Chu, I heard that you just solved another piece of glass, you really deserve to be the Jade King!" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "Come on, I'm just lucky, how can I be called the Jade King!" If you say that again, you are killing! ”

Shi Papi smiled, although he is not highly educated, but he has been in business for so long, and he also knows the truth that young people can't be raised too high, but he thinks that Chu Chen still has two brushes, otherwise why would Liu Lao accept him as a closed disciple?

However, what about Chu Chen, he felt that it had nothing to do with him, what he cared about was how to turn the banknotes in Chu Chen's pocket into his own, so he hurriedly said: "Boss Chu, I have a good thing, do you want to take a look?" ”

may also understand that his level is not high, he hurriedly said: "We are all in the industry, I will tell the truth, this thing was bought from an old man the day before yesterday, he said that it was his family's ancestral, I looked very old-fashioned, so I bought it." ”

As he spoke, he took the things out of the box beside him and put them in front of Chu Chen.

Chu Chen fixed his eyes and saw that it was a very small Arhat statue, with a height of less than eight centimeters, but when he took the Arhat statue in his hand, he found that this Arhat statue was quite heavy, and after a closer look, he was a little surprised to find that this Arhat statue was actually made of very fine smelted copper.

Copper is elemental copper, that is, pure copper, you may think it is strange, but it is something made of pure copper, what is so strange.

If you say it now, pure copper is certainly not a rare thing, but copper was a scarce material in ancient times, and copper was used to make coins in previous dynasties, and there are many copper castings, etc., which are in great demand, but the supply is limited.

In ancient times, each new dynasty was established, and many of the currencies and bronze artifacts of the previous dynasty were re-smelted and then made of coins of this dynasty, which was done because of the shortage of copper, and copper was pure copper, not mixed with other substances, of course, more copper was consumed, so copper handicrafts were made of copper.

Although the Arhat statue in front of him was small, Chu Chen observed that the thing was not only made of copper, but also the style of the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and it was the first time he had encountered something like this, which was the reason why he was surprised.

This Arhat has a handsome face, and the eyebrows are clear and moist, peaceful and quiet. Sit cross-legged with your left hand on the ground and your right hand on your knee. It seems to be leisurely and contented, and there is a state of seeing through the mortal dust and cutting off all the leaks, and getting a state of great ease.

The robe on his body is soft and close-fitting, the folds of his clothes are natural and smooth, hanging down to his side, and his legs are like flowing water, which is extremely realistic. The details of the robe are also very exquisite, and the Fukuda grid is faintly visible, and the hook and knot of the left shoulder strap are interspersed.

The craftsman abandons the stereotyped image of religious works and highlights the personality portrayal of the work. The godhead that transcends mortals has been appropriately expressed on the face of the Venerable, giving people a sense of kindness and amiability, and creating the ultimate in artistic expression.

Especially this Arhat statue is so small, and it can still be so good, the craftsmanship of the craftsman can be described as superb, quite extraordinary.

Chu Chen couldn't put down some admiration for this Arhat statue, although its style is simple, but it is very rare that the colorful copper actually reveals the brilliance of gilding, coupled with the temperament given to it by the craftsman, making this pocket statue less than eight centimeters high like the mountain that reaches into the clouds......
