Chapter Seventy-Six: A Fight Between Ghosts
The boss of Yaxuan Pavilion didn't seem to be a good talker, and after I passed, he directly made a gesture of inviting inside, and then turned around and walked in first, I followed him in after I was stunned, and closed the glass door in the back. is worthy of being a person who is not good at talking, and even taking the initiative to entertain me seems so cold, it really makes people speechless.
He made a gesture of invitation and asked me to sit down, and I sat down suspiciously and wondered: "What is the boss looking for me?" β
"I see that you are quite interested in antiques, and there are a few things in the store recently, and the treasures are naturally sold to discerning people. The last time you bought a ruler from me, it wasn't a good thing, but at least it was a ruler with a history of nearly 100 years. In our antique world, the definition of antiques is the change of dynasties rather than the length of years, so it is not too much to charge you thousands of dollars for that refurbished ruler, and you will not lose money. I just saw that you really intend to buy something, and standing on the side of the road smoking and looking at all kinds of shops proves that you are at a loss, and the most important thing is that you are still in a hurry, so in order to save your time and let you buy the right thing, I will recommend yourself to let you see the latest things received by my shop, if you need it, I will show it to you now. The boss was a little polite, but the tone of his voice was still unhurried, and he poured me a cup of hot tea, and he added a cup of his own.
β......β
I'm not stupid...... This boss is a shrewd person, no wonder, "hurting people", but he said that the definition of antiques is indeed a fact, only the things of the past dynasties will be cherished, even the things of ordinary people in that dynasty are the same, they are all antiques, and they are gimmicks to ordinary people, as long as someone wants them, they can be sold. The ruler is indeed worth it, but if he really knew the value of the ruler, he would not have sold it to me for thousands of dollars, and there were signs of cheating me. Especially when he said I was smoking on the side of the road with a blank face...... Said that he seems to be a master of watching people, but these are just his mistakes, I am seriously watching the ghosts fight, watching those ghosts have said something that makes me feel valuable, so I am serious and not at a loss, and it is precisely in this way that I think he is a big fool, and it is estimated that what will be shown to me later is defective, otherwise if it was really an antique, he would have put it high altogether, and put a big price on the faΓ§ade of the town.
Buying and selling is like this, the merchant will always say that the customer is cheap, and the customer will always earn them, but they will always be the customer, and we have to have a lot of money, but which big boss is not in business? The richest people are in business.
But now I had something to ask him, so I smiled and nodded, and asked him to show me something.
The so-called watching people do business, the identity of things. I don't look like a rich person, so the things that the boss took out were all put in a carton of mineral water, and there was a star named Wang Moumou who sold mineral water, he was very handsome, and I was jealous. I can't help but secretly say that this boss is too vague, and he doesn't know how to package a little better and then come out to deceive people, a cardboard box with antiques, if it is really an antique, I don't know how many people who love antiques can't stand it, and they must scold this boss. He's also a person who does antiques, antiques need to be cared for, it's impossible for him not to understand, he won't really fool me as a big fool, right? Do I really look that stupid? Boss has a kind of you name it! I will never flatten you!
"The boss is really a real person, I heard that two days ago there was an antique from Shuzhong came to our Tai'an County, last time I bought a magic ruler from you and sold it to my boss for 20,000 yuan, he said that the magic ruler was polished with sandalwood sawdust, in fact, it was peach wood, and in the past, those Taoist priests in Wudang Mountain and what big places used peach wood to make rulers, and the saying in the Tao is called canopy ruler, and there are a lot of things carved on the ruler. Damn, after I sold it to him for 20,000 yuan, he told me that the magic ruler was worth at least 100,000 yuan, and he earned 80,000 yuan when he worked as a cow and a horse. So I came here after knowing about the batch of antiques in Shu this time, and I hope to pick up another leak here. By the way, boss, are all the treasures in this box from Shuzhong? "However, I can only think that I am a big fool, fiddling with the contents of the cardboard box, talking about the magic ruler, seeing his face black and blue, I really feel comfortable, let him play with me again.
The most fearful thing about doing antique business is that you don't know how to do it, and it's easy to get the wrong thing at a high price and sell the things in your hand cheaply, just like the boss in front of me who pretends to be cold is not very knowledgeable, and the heat is not enough, so everything in his hands is sold at a price higher than the price when he bought it, just don't want to lose. If they lose a lot of money once, they will prove that they are not capable, they will not be able to raise their heads in their peers, and customers will no longer believe their words about the antique sales in the store. The corner of the boss's mouth twitched, and the teacup in his hand shook out a little tea juice, obviously hearing the price of the magic ruler, his heart ached, and he said embarrassedly after a while: "I can't imagine that the magic ruler is so valuable, so I am especially suitable for you to come here to pick up the leak, haha......"
After all, he is a shrewd businessman, no matter how disliked he is, he still has to be happy in front of me, but he broke his disguised coldness this time, and he is still quite approachable. Damn, this kind of person is a profiteer who looks down on people and looks down on people!
After laughing, he continued: "My batch of goods came from Shuzhong, a large truck, so many merchants on one street, I just grabbed a box. I can't imagine that the little brother really understands something, and he also knows the news of our purchase, you see if there are any good things in these things. β
I understand something? I know a...... Recently, I have read more than two books and can say something, how can I verify the treachery of this boss without talking about it. Looking at his current appearance, he just wants to slaughter me fiercely, praising me when I really know a little, and then he will boast about the things I pick, and finally sell them to me at a big price, this kind of trick is very low-end.
", Sailor Moon...... Damn, Astro Boy...... Damn, the bottom of the bowl is engraved with a broken bowl with the word 'hanging'......"
Looking at the contents of the box, I have long cursed my mother in my heart, and I can't help but occasionally show some signs of cramps when I hold these tied hands. Tai'an County is a small place, the so-called antique street is like a place to sell rags, I really suspect that these things are bought wholesale in a treasure's second-hand Tao market, and it is estimated that such a box of things is at most a hundred yuan. It could have been very low, but there were a few pieces of metal and a few pieces of wood, some small carvings, and a hundred pieces of gold, counting the rough manual costs, a hundred pieces were considered to be heavenly.
I really can't help but complain about this box of things, I took out all those modern things, and what was left inside was a wrist thick dark red board, a palm-high yellow iron Guanyin, a pen holder made of ancient bamboo and a few ceramics, I shook my head, "Boss, did your child put the toy room inside, this Sailor Moon was only available on the market when I was ten years old, a handful of plastic products, machine manufacturing, inferior textures, five cents to buy are too expensive, if it is carved by a master, it is worth a little money, It's a pity that the base doesn't have the master's mark, and even if there is, I don't know if the master is dead, and it's worthless to not die...... None of these things are what I want, and there are other things that can't be sold for a few bucks. β
In the face of low-end profiteers, it is best to directly say that his goods are not good, but the premise is that you don't like the things in his store, and now I really don't like his "rags". I'm not an antique person, but I'm just picking a fault with the modern ones. To tell the truth, that Guanyin statue is really good, yellow iron, and a little rusty, it is estimated that it is really a bit old, that pen holder seems to be too, and those ceramics seem to be ...... The only thing that is not worth it is the dark red board, which is a piece of wood with a little arc on the four sides of the cuboid, it smells like sandalwood, but the taste is not big, it is estimated that it is polished with sandalwood chips and then forged with dark colors, even the carving is not carved, and the carving of two kittens is estimated to be worth a lot of money, and I can't help but scold those who do fake antiques for being too immoral.
The boss didn't know that I was going to say that suddenly, obviously a little caught off guard. He is very good at reading people, I am not trying to bargain with him now, but I don't mean to buy it at all, he probably saw it, gritted his teeth and patted his thigh and said: "Little brother, you and I are also fated to buy and sell, five hundred yuan, I will give you all this box of things, just when I Zhao Zhishan made you a friend!" β
β......β
Your friend is also worthless, worth five hundred dollars...... I didn't mean to buy it, but after thinking about it, I don't know how to read the quality of antiques anyway, so naturally I don't know what the thing that exudes yin energy for ghosts to like is, maybe it's not bad to use the elimination method, at least it excludes Zhao Zhishan's Yaxuan Pavilion. A "friend" worth five hundred yuan should also be able to ask him a few questions, so it is still worth it, so he gritted his teeth and said uncomfortably: "Five hundred is five hundred, just when I make Boss Zhao, a friend, I have to tell my friend if there are any good things in the future." β
In this way, I spent five hundred yuan to take away the contents of the cardboard box, and when I went out, I saw the bright smile of Boss Zhao behind me from the faint reflection of the glass door, but when I turned around, he dispersed the smile before me. Sure enough, this profiteer still earned it in the end, otherwise how could he have laughed so happily.
After going out, I saw that the ghosts on the street had finished fighting, and they each pulled to the side, and the ghosts were a little weaker than before, and now they were scolding each other, looking like children scolding the street.
"Hurry back!"
Just as I was about to enter the next store to take a look, Chi Tingyuan's slight voice came from my chest, and the voice was deliberately lowered, but the tone of the voice was right, not a joke.
I don't know what it is, the only arm is holding the cardboard box that is about to rot and turn around, just when I got out of the street, I saw a black sedan drive past me, the car did not stop by my side, but I saw the license plate number of this car - Thai B three eight, the car that Wen Shuixun is sitting in today!
"Goo-dong!"
I swallowed vigorously, and before I could think about it, the car braked, but now it was five meters away from me, and as the window opened, a head with a ponytail stretched out of it, looking in my direction, and I looked at this person with a gaze that was difficult to look at, this kind of light I had only seen in those ruthless people, such as those who guarded us in the pyramid scheme den.
