Seeing the people around him looking at himself and others like crazy people, Liu Sizhe said speechlessly: "I said Kunzai, didn't you just pick up a leak of more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, as for laughing like this!" ”

Duan Kun smiled and said: "Of course I can't compare with you, you know, this is the first leak I picked up, and I earned nearly 200,000 yuan the first time, do you think I can be unhappy?" ”

Liu Sizhe pouted and said, "If it weren't for Brother Chen, you would be able to pick up the leak of the fart!" ”

Duan Kun didn't care, and said with a smug smile: "I really have to thank Brother Chen for this, but in the end, it's me who picked up the leak!" ”

"Cut!" Liu Sizhe sneered, then turned his head and asked Chu Chen, "Brother Chen, that string of hands just now shouldn't be simple, right?" ”

Chu Chen took out the bracelet and said with a smile: "Of course there is something else, you can see it by looking at it." ”

Liu Sizhe took the bracelet and looked at it carefully, and found that there were many uniform small cracks on the surface of the beads, which looked like crawling marks similar to small insects, because glass objects never cracked, and stone materials would not appear in this phenomenon either.

In addition, there is obvious wear and tear in the eyelets of the beads, which is obviously not as hard as glass, and the beads are relatively light, so it is certain that this thing is not a feeder.

Since it is not a material vessel, nor is it a stone thing, then these beads are likely to be organic matter, what is the bead-like organic matter, the result is about to come out, Liu Sizhe said with a shocked face: "Could these be ......?"

Chu Chen smiled: "Indeed, judging from the fineness and pulp, this should be a trick from the Qing Dynasty." Although its luster is already a little rounded, it is indeed a pearl luster. So, I think these should be gold pearls. ”

Listened to Chu Chen's answer. Liu Sizhe's eyes glared at the boss: "Such a big golden pearl, this ...... This is also ......"

As the old saying goes, "seven are pearls, eight are treasures", generally pearls below 6 mm are not included in the category of jewelry-grade pearls, 7-9 mm are generally loved by consumers, 10 mm pearls are rare, and more than 11 mm are only South Sea pearls and black pearls. The higher you go, the rarer the number becomes. And the price tends to increase exponentially.

The gold pearl is a kind of South Sea pearl, because of its huge size, it can be cultivated 9~16mm white or golden South Sea pearl, of which the production of gold pearl is very small, so the price is more expensive.

The problem is that gold pearls are cultured now, and even so, gold pearls above 15mm are quite rare, especially in the Qing Dynasty. However, there is no sea pearl culture, that is to say, this string of 18 gold pearls of at least 15mm is all natural, which can be said to be quite hard-won. At the same time, it can also be seen that the dignity of its original owner's identity can be seen.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Sizhe is so shocked and unbelievable.

Duan Kun muttered: "Isn't it just a string of relatively large pearls, it's a little more expensive." But if you want to buy it, it's not that you can't buy it, right? ”

Liu Sizhe said angrily: "Of course I bought the breeding one." The key is that these pearls are natural, you can go and take a look! ”

"Heavenly ...... Natural? Duan Kun also looked incredible.

Liu Sizhe glanced at him and said, "Otherwise, what do you think." In the Qing Dynasty, there was nothing to say about cultivating sea pearls. ”

"Shhh Duan Kun gasped: "Then this string of bracelets is worth a lot of money!" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "This still needs to be measured, but if all of them are more than 15mm, it is indeed worth a lot." ”

Liu Sizhe couldn't wait to say: "Then what are you waiting for, I remember Brother Chen, you have a vernier caliper in your bag, let's measure it now!" ”

Chu Chen smiled, and then took out the vernier caliper in the bag, only to find out that these pearls were not completely round, but they could not be visually distinguished, after all, they were natural pearls, which was normal.

However, when he saw the maximum diameter of the pearls, even Chu Chen was quite surprised, the maximum diameter of these pearls was almost 16.2mm, of which the error did not exceed 0.2mm, which can be said to be quite amazing.

Duan Kun was a little dumbfounded and said, "This ...... How much does this string of bracelets cost? ”

Chu Chen shook his head: "It's really hard to say!" But I don't plan to sell it anyway! ”

Before 1993, the price of golden pearls in the Xiangjiang market was relatively stable and low, and the relatively high-quality small golden pearls were 9~14mm, each about 300~800 US dollars, and 130~200 US dollars per gram.

But in 1994 printed. In the four years from 1993 to 1996, the price of golden pearls soared by 300%.

And this is still the price of 9~14mm golden pearls before 2000, as for the high-quality golden pearls above 15mm round because they are too rare, it is difficult to put forward a standard market price.

What's more, the gold pearls mentioned here all refer to cultured pearls, and Chu Chen's string of 18 pearls are all natural pearls, and their prices are even more difficult to estimate.

However, with such a natural pearl hand, Chu Chen can be sure that it is difficult to get a string in the world, such a precious thing, even if someone gives more money, he will not be able to sell it, after all, in his eyes, money is just a string of numbers.

Liu Sizhe said with envy: "No, both of you have picked up the leak, I won't talk about the leak today, you have to gain something, right?" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "Anyway, it's still early, let's go shopping......"

It is said that it is still early, but for the antique industry, it is basically early rather than late, when Chu Chen and the others re-entered the antique market, many people had already found treasures, carrying large bags and small wraps, ready to retreat. This also means that there are not many good things left on the market.

Speaking of which, there are also benefits of coming late, those leftover things, indicating that everyone is not optimistic, the price must be cheaper, in case you see it, it is easy to bargain. Of course, this is only a consolation word.

Walking and stopping all the way, with Chu Chen present, even if there were not many good things left on the stall, everyone still bought a few good things at low prices, but the things were not too good, and the value was not even comparable to Duan Kun's pair of incense balls.

Liu Sizhe is quite satisfied with this, after all, there are few good things in the antique industry, and it is not bad to be able to pick up a few leaks a few times, and he is not an insatiable person, so he does not force such a thing as picking up big leaks at all.

With the harvest and seeing that the time was almost up, the group was ready to find a place to eat, and then visit the city's attractions in the afternoon.

However, just as everyone was walking back, they saw a lot of people surrounding the door of an antique shop, and the sound of quarrels came from the store from time to time. Curious, Chu Chen and the others stepped forward to join in the fun.

The four of them walked to the door of the antique shop and found that the two sides of the quarrel, one was a man in his fifties and the other was a young man in his twenties.

Duan Kun rolled his eyes, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, handed it to a middle-aged man next to him, and asked with a smile in the local dialect, "Uncle, do you smoke?" ”

"Yo, soft, it's a smoke!" The middle-aged man was slightly stunned and took the cigarette.

Duan Kun smiled, and while lighting a cigarette for him, he asked, "Uncle, what's going on!" ”

The middle-aged man took a sip beautifully, and then said, "It's not because of the return." ”

Hearing him say this, Liu Sizhe felt a little strange: "In our business, unless it is an acquaintance, we generally buy and sell with our eyesight, the payment is not refunded, and the exit is not guaranteed, I don't seem to have heard of a few stores that can return goods, right?" ”

"It seems that the little brother is also a man in the industry!"

The middle-aged man smiled: "Strictly speaking, our industry is really not interested in returning goods, but now, it's not that everyone's legal concept is getting stronger and stronger, and our industry is somewhat influential, but you can return it, in this area, only the yellow shopkeeper of this store can be regarded as eating the first crab ......"

However, listening to the middle-aged man's introduction, not everything sold in the shopkeeper of Huang can be refunded, and there are many conditions for returning the goods.

First of all, before selling, it is stated that it will not be refunded if it is sold. The second is not to return if the authenticity of the thing is not guaranteed. The third is that the thing is real, because it is expensive to buy and return it will not be returned. Fourth, whether the thing is true or false, it cannot be kept as it is after being processed. Fifth, things sold for more than half a month will not be returned.

In addition, if the customer really has an eye, even if he wants to return the goods, he still has to pay a certain percentage of the "eye-catching fee", specifically, the value of the thing, ranging from 10% to 30%, the cost of eye-catching for cheap things is more, and the cost of eye-catching for expensive things is less.

But even so, compared to other stores, buying things here at the Huang shopkeeper will undoubtedly reduce the loss of many eye-catching customers.

Therefore, as soon as this regulation came out, the business of this antique shop was much better, which also made the school cabinets of the surrounding antique shops all think about whether they also have this regulation.

After listening to the middle-aged man's introduction, Duan Kun asked a little strangely: "Since there is such a rule, it can't be done according to it, why are the two of them still quarreling?" Could it be that this young man is deliberately trying to cause trouble? ”

"No, this young man is still eligible for return." The middle-aged man shook his head.

"In that case, let's retreat, doesn't the owner of this store even care about his reputation?" Liu Sizhe couldn't figure this out.

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "It's not that the shopkeeper Huang deliberately made things difficult, it's really that this young man doesn't pay attention to things and commits the taboo ...... of our industry" (to be continued......
