Chapter 438: Firewood Kiln (I)

After making an appointment with Ning Shizhen to trade tomorrow, Chu Chen continued to pick up the other items and look at them.

The remaining objects include bronze mirrors, jade plates, snuff bottles, bronze gilt Buddha statues, etc., although there are a few objects that Chu Chen still likes, but in addition to the objects that Ning Shizhen said about wanting to barter things, the other few are favored by others.

Now Chu Chen has obtained the Xuande blue and white flower bowl and Jiulong walnuts, and he is embarrassed to eat alone, so he can only give it to others with a little regret.

Opened today, although Ning Shizhen has not done a small business here, but a lot of big business has been done, if you count Chu Chen's pair of Kowloon walnuts in barter, the total amount has exceeded two million, and it can be regarded as a good start.

Seeing that it was already noon, Ning Shizhen invited everyone to have a meal, and then everyone went their separate ways. ……

After the meal, Zhu Dafu invited Chu Chen and Wang Xiangong to sit with him for a while, anyway, it was nothing serious, and the two readily agreed.

Talking and laughing, Zhu Dafu asked strangely: "Xiaochen, I remember that you like to buy fine products now, why do you want that blue and white bowl so badly?" And the quality determines the market value, and the appreciation of that bowl in the future will not be large, right? ”

Wang Xiangong is also more curious about this, from the last auction, he knew that Chu Chen was not short of money, and he would not buy such a thing to collect, if he wanted to sell it, it would not be higher than the price he bought just now, the bowl just now was like a chicken rib that was tasteless and discarded, could it be that Chu Chen could still bring this thing back to life?

But what Wang Xiangong didn't expect was that the facts really gave him the right guess.

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Fu, Elder Wang." You may have forgotten that there are already advanced technologies such as ultrasonic and microwave vibrations. When I go back, I just need to spend some money to clean up the dirt in the ice chips. Then seal the mouth of the ice chips, and send this bowl to the auction at that time, it should be worth eight or nine hundred thousand. ”

Zhu Dafu and Wang Xiangong listened to Chu Chen's explanation, their faces were stunned, and after half a sound, they came back to their senses, and they shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

Zhu Dafu sighed and said: "Xiaochen, when you say this, I feel that I can't keep up with the times, and it seems that I am going to retire!" ”

Chu Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Uncle Fu." What you said, our antique business is based on experience, and old people like you and Wang Lao are treasures! This time I was just a little clever. ”

"Sometimes a little cleverness is not a great wisdom!" Wang Xiangong laughed and said.

Zhu Dafu smiled, there is a saying that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the older generation will one day pass the baton in their hands to the next generation, and Chu Chen, who is just like his own nephew, can now express his youth, why should he be so emotional!

The three of them walked to the door of an antique shop, only to find that there were many people watching in front of the store, and the sound of quarrels could be heard from time to time. This made the three of them a little curious, and at the same time, they were all speculating whether something like Niu Dabao would happen again.

Among the onlookers, there happened to be someone Zhu Dafu knew, so he hurriedly inquired. After the man's brief explanation, the three of them understood what was going on.

It turned out that the young man who was arguing in the store liked to collect. The day before yesterday, he heard from a friend. There is a good collection in this store, and the young man listened to the introduction of a friend. I was very impressed by this collection, and it happened that one of his friends was a connoisseur of antiques, so the young man brought the connoisseur friend to this antique shop.

When the young man saw this collection, he felt that it was what he had been thinking about for a long time, but he felt a little strange, but his friend insisted that this collection was a fine product in the imitation of Ru kiln, which could be worth 300,000 yuan, and now as long as 180,000 yuan, it can be said that he has picked up a big leak, if the young man does not want it, he will buy it.

Seeing what his friend said, the young man made up his mind to buy the collection.

People are like this sometimes, once they have doubts, they will never forget, and when they get home, the more they look at it, the more they feel that the thing is wrong, so they let others look at it, but no one says that the thing is real, so the young man comes here to return it.

It's just that what the young man didn't expect was that the shopkeeper said that the collection was deposited in the store by the friend brought by the young man, and he could only find the owner of the collection to solve it. At this time, the young man knew that the collection belonged to his expert friend, and the connoisseur he found when he bought it was actually his friend, so it was strange not to be deceived.

When the young man reacted, it was impossible to find his friend again, so he was unwilling, and came to the store to settle the account, his reason was also very simple, if it wasn't for the fact that he felt that the monk couldn't run away from the temple, he wouldn't have come here to buy things.

However, the shopkeeper disagreed, he said that he was also a victim, and the liar was also an acquaintance with him, and because of this, he would agree to the other party to put things here to sell on his behalf, and now this happened to have an impact on his reputation, and he didn't know where to cry out, how could he impose the loss on his head.

The young man felt that there must be collusion between the store and the scammer, otherwise why did he draw the card here when he checked out the bill, and the store still said with a wrongful face that this was also for the convenience of friends.

In this way, the two of them quarreled back and forth.

Knowing what happened, the three of them all shook their heads, there are really a lot of "mines" in the antique industry, and the ways are even more varied, strange, if you are not careful, you may get on the road, quite a bit of an unguardable taste.

"But this antique is eye-catching, I don't seem to have heard that it can be returned, could it be that this young man has also signed a contract with the store?" Chu Chen asked curiously.

The person who explained just now laughed: "If the store really colludes with the scammer, how can the store sign the contract, and if the store is also kept in the bones, then the scammer will not let the store sign the contract." ”

When I heard that there was no contract, everyone knew that the young man would definitely not be able to get the money back in the end, and even if there was no contract, the young man would not win the lawsuit.

The reality reflected everyone's speculation, and after a while, the young man walked out of the antique shop angrily but gloomily, and walked a few steps, perhaps unable to hold back the anger in his heart, he took out the collection he bought, and was ready to smash it directly to the ground.

"Wait!" Before the young man could press any further, he heard a shout from behind him.

The young man stopped what he was doing, looked back, and saw a young man walking briskly up to him.

Chu Chen opened his mouth and said, "Sir, it's a pity that you smashed this thing, I don't know if you can give it to me?" ”

At first, the young people thought that Chu Chen was joking, but Chu Chen's knowing expression told him that the other party really wanted to buy the fake in his hand, which made him strange, and he hurriedly asked with some hope: "Little brother, I don't know how much money you are going to pay?" ”

"A thousand!" Chu Chen pulled out his index finger and said.

The price given by Chu Chen immediately dashed the hopes of young people, but thinking about it, how could something that many connoisseurs think is a fake, come back to life?

The young man took a deep breath and said, "I have lost 180,000 yuan, and it is not less than this 1,000 yuan, if you really want it, I will give you 10,000 yuan!" ”

"Hehe, then you should keep it for yourself!" Chu Chen smiled and shook his head, didn't say anything, turned around and prepared to walk back.

The young man was also a little confused when he saw Chu Chen's reaction, under normal circumstances, shouldn't he bargain before making a deal, could it be that the other party really wanted to pay for it because he felt that it was a pity?

A thousand yuan is also money, and the young man didn't want to see the boiled duck suddenly fly, so he hurriedly said loudly: "Five thousand, do you want five thousand?" ”

However, Chu Chen was still unmoved, and walked straight to Zhu Dafu's side.

"Two thousand, if you still think it's expensive, then forget it!" The young man shouted.

Chu Chen paused when he heard this, and after a while, he turned around and walked back to the young man, took out two thousand yuan, and said to him: "If I didn't think that your three-legged wash is quite pleasing to the eye, I wouldn't have spent this unjust money!" ”

The young man didn't say much, he handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and after he was done, he walked away quickly, as if he was afraid that Chu Chen would regret it. However, Chu Chen will not regret it, on the contrary, he is afraid that young people will regret it!

Holding the three-legged wash he had just bought, Chu Chen walked back to Zhu Dafu's side.

"I said Xiao Chu, how did you think of buying a fake, there must be something in it, right?" Wang Xiangong asked impatiently.

Chu Chen said with an honest expression: "What can I say, I really just think that this three-legged wash looks pleasing to the eye, and it's really a pity to smash it, so I bought it." ”

Hearing Chu Chen say this, Wang Xiangong immediately showed an expression of believing in you, and Zhu Dafu next to him said with a smile: "Okay, let's talk about this matter when it comes to me!" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "You go first, I'll go get some honey locust fruit now." ”

With that, he turned back and walked towards a place, and he remembered that there was a soaphorn tree not far from here.

Seeing Chu Chen's behavior, Wang Xiangong muttered with a firm face: "There must be something strange about that three-legged wash!" ”

"Okay, let's go first, anyway, Xiao Chen will reveal the secret to us in a while." After speaking, Zhu Dafu took the lead and walked towards his shop.

After Zhu Dafu and the others walked for a while, the shopkeeper said with a wry smile at the door: "This time my face is lost, I think I have been in business for so many years, and I actually encountered this kind of thing, even if I jumped into the Yellow River, I couldn't wash it." ”

"I said Lao Zhang, I remember that you never brought anything for sale to others, right?"

"Hey! This time I was also soft-hearted, and my friend who had been dating for four or five years begged for it, and I was embarrassed to refuse, and only Xiao Tang was in the store that day, and I didn't look at anything, and the next day he came with the young man just now. Ay! It can be regarded as eating a trench and raising a wisdom! (To be continued......)
