Qiao Qingtai felt a little strange when he heard what Han Yusong said, although he didn't come to Xiazhou much, but he still knew Han Yusong's reputation for doing business, under normal circumstances, even if it was a rare antique, the price offered by Han Yusong was still quite fair, which made him immediately think that the reason why Han Yusong did this was because of him.

"Xiao Han, you didn't do this because you wanted to take care of me, did you?"

Han Yusong smiled and said a little embarrassedly: "No, the main thing is that this couplet was actually paid to me by my friend, and the price is a bit expensive, so the price I gave is a little more expensive." ”

Qiao Qingtai was a little curious when he heard this, and asked, "Xiao Han, I see that you are usually very careful about money, how can anyone still owe you money and not pay it back?" ”

Han Yusong smiled bitterly: "I can be regarded as suffering from the disaster of innocence......"

It turned out that Han Yusong had a good friend named Xu Fan, who was also an antique dealer and ran a small antique shop in another antique market in Xiazhou.

Xu Fan's economy and channels are limited, so sometimes he will "take it alive" from Han Yusong.

"Live taking" refers to an antique dealer taking a piece of goods from another antique dealer and not paying at that time, which is called "live taking".

The rule of "taking live" is that if the price is negotiated, you can only sell more for money, not less, that is, you must guarantee the bottom. Words must be believed. The price is higher than the buyout, generally speaking, the person who does not pay the handling fee or the runway fee is not paid, but the person who takes the live can increase the price at the low price, which is called "wearing a hat", and more is sold to the person who takes the live. The original owner does not ask.

Han Yusong and Xu Fan are both good friends who know their roots, and the two have been working together for four or five years. And Xu Fan "takes it alive" here in Han Yusong, and usually only takes one piece every time. There have never been any problems during this period.

One day, Xu Fan suddenly came in a hurry, saying that there was a boss who was in urgent need of high-quality antiques, and asked Han Yusong to "live" two antiques worth nearly 600,000 yuan. Considering that everyone has cooperated for so long, and Xu Fan is more careful and generally will not be deceived, although Han Yusong was a little curious, he didn't ask much.

But the result was unexpected by Han Yusong, and this time Xu Fan was made a game. Not to mention making money, he was almost killed.

When Han Yusong said this, he stopped and took a few sips of tea, and at this time, everyone's curiosity was raised, and Qiao Qingtai hurriedly said: "Xiao Han, don't sell Guanzi, tell us what's going on!" ”

Han Yusong smiled, and when he was about to continue speaking, he saw a man who was nearly fifty years old. The man, whose hair was already half white, walked in briskly from the outside.

Han Yusong pointed at the man and said with a smile: "Cao Cao Cao will arrive, let's listen to him." ”

Xu Fan was a little confused by these words. He asked with a puzzled expression, "What do you want me to say?" ”

Han Yusong said: "It's just that you were done by someone some time ago." ”

Xu Fan scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Seriously, this is a nightmare for me. I really don't want to talk about it anymore. ”

Han Yusong poured Xu Fan a cup of tea and said, "Old Xu." I think you might as well open yourself up and be generous. Untie the knot, and the matter is over. Otherwise, the more afraid you are to mention it now, the greater the impact on yourself, and in the end, it is likely to become a snake bite once and a fear of the well rope for ten years. ”

Xu Fan pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "What you said does make sense, and now I really have such a trend." However, before I say that, can you introduce me to these friends? ”

"Of course......"

Han Yusong smiled and introduced the two sides, Xu Fan heard that the old and young in front of him were actually Qiao Qingtai and Chu Chen, he was surprised for a moment, and began to get excited, and he was a little unfavorable even to speak.

After greeting for a while, Xu Fan, who finally calmed down, told everyone about what he had been done by others.

One day in March this year, a man in his thirties came to Xu Fan's antique shop, with dark brown skin and a thin body like a bow, who looked like a farmer facing the loess all day. The man sold some antiques to Xu Fan every once in a while, and the price offered was always much lower than the actual value of the antiques.

Faced with the "wronged boss" who was sent to the door, Xu Fan couldn't help but secretly rejoice: pie fell from the sky, this man's money is too easy to make.

After a long time, Xu Fan became friends with the man, knowing that his name was Tian Dazhuang, a shovel in Jin Province, and knew a lot of bosses who liked to play antiques, because now the cultural relics of the Three Gorges are more popular, so they often come to Xiazhou to Taobao. And the reason why he sold things to Xu Fan was just to make a travel fee.

Xu Fan didn't have much doubt about this, because although the things Tian Dazhuang sold him were cheap, they were all relatively ordinary goods, and it was likely that they were indeed like Tian Dazhuang said, just to earn a travel fee.

One day, Tian Dazhuang enthusiastically set up a line for Xu Fan, and wanted to introduce him to a big boss who wanted to buy antiques, saying that the other party had a high vision and a generous shot, but this boss didn't want the Three Gorges cultural relics, otherwise he would have done this business himself.

As soon as Xu Fan heard that there was such a good thing, and Tian Dazhuang put the location of the transaction in a particularly famous local restaurant, he didn't think much about it, so he hurriedly agreed.

On the day of the transaction, Xu Fan came to the hotel with a portable safe containing antiques and had already booked a private room.

Soon, Tian Dazhuang brought a well-dressed man who was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old into the private room, and the young man told Xu Fan that the boss had something to do temporarily, so he would be the assistant with full authority.

At the dinner table, the young man patted his chest and said, "As long as the goods are good, the price is not a problem." ”

It didn't take long for the two conveniences to negotiate the price very happily.

When the business was negotiated, the young man said, "Let's wait until we eat." Xu Fan thought that he was not in a hurry to do this, so he did not refuse.

But as soon as he drank the wine, Xu Fan didn't take long to get drunk, and when he woke up, he found that he was already lying in the hospital.

Speaking of this, Xu Fan still looked a little afraid: "At that time, the doctor told me that the amount of anesthetic given by that group of people was very heavy, and if it wasn't for my physique, I probably wouldn't be able to wake up again." It can be regarded as my great fortune, I can earn it again if I lose my money, and if I lose my life, there will be nothing! Therefore, when meeting strangers, you really have to be careful, in case the other party is not right-minded, you will lose both people and money. ”

Everyone nodded yes, as the old saying goes, you can't hurt people, you can't have the heart to prevent people, although there are still many good people in society, but there is a way that money can make ghosts grind, and when you encounter things related to money, you can't treat them sloppily, otherwise you will suffer if you are not careful.

Qiao Qingtai opened his mouth and said: "Xiao Xu, to say something profound, not to mention whether you have a deep relationship with that Tian Dazhuang, when you go out to talk about business, especially if you bring valuables with you, it is best to bring a trustworthy friend." ”

"Old Qiao, you're right." Xu Fan said ashamedly: "I was too big and careless, but in the end, I was still stunned by the pie that Tian Dazhuang threw at me before." ”

"Therefore, if we are in the antique business, we must not be greedy for small profits."

Chu Chen sighed with emotion, and then asked, "Then have these people been found now?" ”

"I went to inquire the day before yesterday and said that there was no clue at all."

Xu Fan sighed, it's been almost a month, and there has been no progress in the case, and it is estimated that even if the case is finally solved, his things will not be able to be recovered.

Han Yusong comforted him and said: "Old Xu, Sai Weng knows if he is blessed, maybe you will come and make a fortune?" ”

Xu Fan said listlessly: "Just make a fortune, I can pay off your money, and then earn some pension money." ”

Han Yusong said: "Lao Xu, don't I tell you, what you owe me before has been paid off." ”

"That's what you think, I don't admit it."

Xu Fan refused very simply, and then took out a small box from his clothes, put it on the table and opened it.

I saw that there was a jade bear with a height of only six or seven centimeters in the box, which was vivid and cute. The bear kneels on one hind paw and bends on the other, squatting as a whole. The bear's head leans forward, its ears are raised, its small round eyes are looking straight ahead, its mouth is open, its teeth are bared, and its front paws are on its knees. The mane of the face is clearly delineated, and the fur is expressed in short curves throughout the body.

At this time, Xu Fan said: "Let's look at this bear-shaped jade paperweight, I think it should be from the Han Dynasty, I don't know if it's right." ”

After saying that, he made a plea to everyone.

Everyone was not polite, and they took a closer look one by one.

When it was Chu Chen's turn, he found that the shape of this vessel was clumsy, the carving was exquisite, the image was freehand, chatting about several knives, the knife was successful, the portrayal was vivid and full of aura, and it can be seen that the craftsmanship was extraordinary.

Judging from the knife technique and jade quality, Chu Chen believes that this is indeed a jade paperweight of the Han Dynasty, and further, it should be the style of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The Han Dynasty paperweight itself has been handed down so far has been very little, and most of it is copper, and the jade paperweight has survived very little because of its lack of resources, mining is not easy, vulnerable and other reasons. Therefore, this jade bear paperweight is really rare and very precious.

Everyone discussed for a moment and agreed that this should be a jade bear paperweight from the Eastern Han Dynasty, which made Xu Fan quite happy, and even said that he seemed to be really in time.

When Han Yusong heard him say this, he felt a little curious and asked, "Old Xu, where did you get this thing?" ”

Xu Fan smiled and said, "Someone came to my store yesterday afternoon to sell it, and the price is not expensive." ”

When Han Yusong heard this, he smiled and said, "Old Xu, you won't meet a liar again, right?" ”

Xu Fan said: "What you say, no matter how I do, I won't even learn a lesson, right?" Besides, didn't the man who sold me just leave you? ”

"Who are you talking about?" Everyone was surprised.

Xu Fan was a little surprised and said, "The middle-aged man in the white shirt just now, isn't he here to sell antiques?" (To be continued......)
