Chapter 911: What's in the Box
At this time, the man who had a bad temper suddenly asked with a shocked face, "Wait, the person you are talking about is called Chu Chen?" ”
"It's called Chu Chen, what's the problem with this?" The clerk glanced at the man and felt that there was something strange about his watch.
At this time, the man's companion also reacted, glanced at the man, and muttered, "Could it be the famous Jade King?" ”
"It seems to be the same name, the same age, and I heard that he also opened an antique shop, and the level of antique identification is also very high...... Right! It must be him! ”
The man slapped his thigh violently, and his face showed a look of annoyance, which was not only regretful of passing by Chu Chen, but also the depression of missing one or a few pieces that was likely to solve the high-grade jade wool, but things had come to this point, and he had already regretted it too late.
"You say Chu Chen is the 'Jade King'? No kidding, okay?! ”
The conversation between the two made the old man feel that he had heard the funniest thing in the world, if Chu Chen was more proficient in gambling stones, he could at least believe it, but to say that Chu Chen was the "Jade King" was really bragging!
The man glanced at the old man and sneered: "You think it's impossible, it doesn't mean that others really can't do it, Chu Chen is a character who can win the Jade King in the bet, can't he still deserve the title of 'Jade King'?!" ”
"Which Emerald King?" The old man was stunned.
"In addition to the Burmese one, which other gambling stone master is called the Jade King?" The man said as a matter of course.
"Ahh Really? The old man exclaimed, looking incredulous.
"Is it necessary for me to lie to you about this kind of thing? I don't believe you can go to the gambling stone circle and ask! ”
The man pursed his lips, and then hurriedly ran out: "Lao Yu." Let's go, the Jade King must have gone in another direction just now. Now hurry up, maybe you can catch up......"
"Hey! Wait for me ......"
The two of them flew away, leaving the old man and the clerk looking at each other. After half a ring, the old man gave the clerk a brain melon seed, and said angrily: "Where is your usual cleverness?" I didn't know if I would have told me about such an important matter! ”
The clerk covered his head and said with a look of injustice: "I thought you knew, besides, I don't know what kind of 'Jade King' Mr. Chu is!" ”
"You...... I'm so! The old man also knew that it was no wonder to the clerk about this, and he was suddenly a little depressed, thinking that there might be tens of millions of jadeite slipping out of his hands. His heart began to bleed. Fortunately, he didn't know that he had missed something more important, otherwise he would have to vomit blood because of the heartache.
At the same time, Qi Baofu and Fang Jinbo also sat in their seats, and both of them also showed a rather shocked look on their faces.
Zhao Xueyi said with a smile: "I said that you two don't be so surprised, anyway, as long as you remember, anything abnormal will become normal when it comes to Xiaochen." For example, Xiao Chen is still a doctor with very good medical skills, how about it. Think it's incredible, right? ”
At this time, Qi Baofu and Fang Jinbo were already shocked and numb, and they no longer knew what words to use to express their feelings.
Chu Chen sat there and smiled and didn't speak, and in interpersonal communication, Chinese people pay attention to subtlety and tactfulness. He can't say too thoroughly, and in this situation, he doesn't need to say anything.
At this time. Zhu Dafu relieved Chu Chen, smiled and waved his hand, "Okay." Let's not talk about it, but ask everyone something. What are we going to do in the afternoon? ”
Wu Keyan opened his mouth and asked, "Ah Chen, will you go to that vendor in the afternoon?" ”
Before Chu Chen could answer, Zhao Xueyi asked with some curiosity, "What hawker?" ”
"That's the case...... Chu Chen smiled and recounted the morning's events to everyone.
After listening to what happened, Uncle Wu and the others realized that Chu Chen was usually quite punctual, so how could he be late.
Zhao Xueyi sighed: "Today's people, for some money, they can think of all kinds of crooked ways, and if it goes on like this, our market will be made by these people sooner or later." ”
"Not to mention the future, how much better can it be now?"
Zhu Dafu shook his head, the antique market was already rampant, and now the materialism is rampant, and all kinds of deception can be said to be endless.
But this kind of thing, if you want to put an end to it, there is no way to think about it, after all, there are always some people in this world who like crooked ways, and there are other people who come out after catching this, and they want not to be deceived, in addition to increasing their own identification level, the important thing is to restrain their greed, and don't believe that pies will fall from the sky.
Zhu Dafu continued: "Xiao Fang, newcomers like you really need to pay attention, your usual habits can't be put on the antique industry." Like you newcomers, you like to blindly listen the most, and this is especially important. ”
"Thank you Zhu Lao, I'll pay attention."
Fang Jinbo nodded again and again to express his gratitude, and then he asked a little embarrassedly: "Then if I take a fancy to something, I can't be sure whether it is true or not, except for not buying it, is there any good way?" ”
Zhao Xueyi said with a smile: "You can use the method of 'returning such as a fake package' to test the seller, if the seller knows that it is a fake, he will usually shirk it." However, this method generally only works in antique shops, like a small stall vendor, and it is unlikely that he will agree to you. ”
Qi Baofu heard this and said: "This method is good, but there shouldn't be many antique shops that can agree to this kind of condition, right?" ”
"Not necessarily."
Chu Chen said: "In our folk antique and art transactions, many times we do not need a contract written in black and white, and reputation plays a key role. Those antique operators who pay attention to personal reputation do not focus on immediate interests, but hope to establish their own image of integrity in the circle. For example, if you go to my place or Uncle Zhao or Uncle Fu to buy antiques, if you want to 'return it as a fake', you can do it." ”
Zhao Xueyi took over and said, "Yes, yes!" But if you want to 'return it as a fake', that thing has to be more expensive, after all, we also have to make money to support our family." ”
Qi Baofu said with a smile: "Of course, otherwise it would be too greedy." ”
Fang Jinbo nodded in agreement, playing antiques and wanting real things, in addition to spending more money on himself, he only had to rely on his own eyesight, fantasizing about pies falling from the sky would definitely not work.
At this time, the waiter began to serve the food, and everyone put down what they were doing and had a beautiful meal.
After being full of wine and food, Zhu Dafu asked again: "Xiaochen, you didn't say it just now, do you want to go to that vendor in the afternoon?" ”
"This ......" Chu Chen looked a little hesitant.
"What's wrong, you have other things to do? Or do you want to cut the wool first? Uncle Wu asked.
"It's not!" Chu Chen shook his head and explained, "I just want to open the box to see if there are other things in it." ”
"What?! Something else? When everyone heard what Chu Chen said, they were all stunned.
After a while, Uncle Wu asked curiously, "Xiaochen, how do you know what's in that box?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the others also looked at Chu Chen with curiosity.
"Wait a minute......
Chu Chen stood up, went to take the rattan box first, opened the box, and then explained: "You see this box, the edge of the mouth is very thin, but the more you go to the side, the thicker it gets, this is very unreasonable, generally speaking, the box should always be made as large as possible, but this rattan box is specially made into a small one, which is very unreasonable." ”
"In addition to this, the weight of the rattan box is also different from the reality, from the surface, this rattan box has a history of at least a hundred years, then it should be very dry, and the weight should become lighter, I don't know if you have found Zuoshan, this rattan box is heavier than the actual situation."
Zuo Shan looked at the wool in the box, pondered for a moment, and then nodded: "Chu Shao, when you say this, I really think that this box seems to be heavier." ”
Speaking of this, everyone's faces were sudden, and Wu Ke said with some excitement: "In other words, it is indeed very likely that there are things hidden in this box?" ”
"It should be, but the specifics will only be known if you have opened it and seen it." Chu Chen smiled slightly.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go buy a saw now, and just cut the box!" Zhu Dafu couldn't wait to say.
Zhao Xueyi shook his head when he heard this: "You don't know, Lao Yi looks like he is quite bold, but he is actually very cautious, although it is no problem for us to open the box here, but in case this matter reaches his ears, it is not good after all, let's wait until we go back!" ”
"What's this, if the thing was sent by him, then there may be some tongue at that time, but this box was bought by Xiao Chen for money, what else can he talk nonsense!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Dafu said to Chu Chen with a smile: "Xiaochen, you did a good job in this matter, but what if he didn't say to give you this box at that time?" ”
Chu Chen said with a smile: "We didn't have anything to put these wool materials at that time, so it's no problem to buy him a box, besides, this box is not a good thing." ”
Zhao Xueyi said: "Don't say it, fortunately he personally said this, otherwise he would have to think about it more." ”
At this time, Uncle Wu waved his hand and said, "Okay, anyway, the things have already arrived, more things are better than less things, let's go back and open the box first!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! It's important to get down to business......" After speaking, Zhao Xueyi and Zhu Dafu stood up one after another, a little eager to see what was hidden in the box.
Seeing everyone walking out, Qi Baofu and Fang Jinbo seemed a little hesitant, after all, they were not too familiar with Chu Chen and the others, and they were really embarrassed to go back with them, but they also very much wanted to see what treasures were hidden in the box, and they were a little in a dilemma for a while.
