Chapter 112: Bought a fake
After driving for half an hour, Sun Li took Lin Chen and Xue Ying to DY's largest antique market, Taobao Street.
Taobao Street is divided into two parts, one part is ordinary merchants, and the things sold here are mixed, but most of them are imitations, and there are very few genuine products.
The other part is only accessible with a VIP card.
The antiques here are quite the opposite, most of them are authentic and genuine, but there are also fakes.
Lin Chen followed Sun Shao into the VIP hall, there were many fewer people here than outside, and there were a lot of antiques on both sides of the shop.
"Some of the antiques here are deserted goods collected by the store from all over the world, and some are ghost goods dug out of the geography, in short, the water here is very deep, if there is no connoisseur to follow, don't come here to collect things easily. Sun Li introduced as he walked.
"Oh, the doorway here is so deep. ”
After walking some distance forward, Sun Li stopped at a shop called the Treasure Pavilion.
"This is it, let's go up. Sun Li smiled and said.
Lin Chen followed Sun Li upstairs and came to an antique room.
There were already a lot of people sitting in the room, and as soon as Sun Li entered the room, these people greeted him warmly.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a Tang costume greeted him with a smile: "Sun Shao, you are here, just waiting for you, this time there are a few good things." ”
"Boss Li, where are the authentic ancient artifacts you mentioned, let me have long eyes. Sun Li couldn't wait.
"Please take a seat, and I'll bring you the real thing. Boss Li said with a smile.
A few people had just taken their seats, and a few more people walked in outside the door.
A big fat man in the lead swaggered beside Sun Li, and the fat man glanced at Lin Chen with triangular eyes and said, "Sun Shao, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you brought a master this time?"
"Cut, what is the matter with you Hu Fat Man or not?" Sun Li said coldly.
Hu Fatzi suddenly laughed: "This time I also brought a treasure connoisseur, see this no, Master Li Yuan, has been engaged in the treasure connoisseurship business for decades." I hired him at a high price, where did you get this little brother?"
"He's not in this business, come and see the excitement with me. Sun Li said coldly.
"Haha, it turned out to be a chick, Brother Sun can open his eyes wider this time, don't be the same as last time, buy an imitation and go back to make people laugh. Fat Hu laughed.
"You don't have to worry about that. Sun Li snorted coldly.
At this time, the lights in the hall were turned on, and the exhibits covered with red cloth were brought up and placed on the table by models wearing cheongsam.
Boss Li walked to the stage with a smile: "Everyone, there are a total of eighteen exhibits in our Treasure Pavilion today, all of which have just been received, and a few of them are ancient genuine, please palm, if you like it, give a price, or the old rule, the highest price gets." ”
Saying that, Boss Li waved his hand, and several waiters lifted the red cloth covering the exhibits, revealing the exhibits below.
Bosses can take a closer look and start bidding.
As soon as Boss Li's words fell, more than a dozen people sitting below got up one after another and gathered around the antique.
"Let's go, Xiao Chen, let's take a look. Sun Li said with a smile.
Lin Chen nodded and followed Sun Li to the table where the antiques were placed.
Sun Li picked up a piece of pottery, picked up a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully for a long time.
"This piece should be blue and white porcelain from the Song Dynasty, Xiao Chen, take a look. ”
Lin Chen nodded, carefully picked up the porcelain, and as soon as his hand touched the blue and white porcelain, he felt a faint aura fluctuation.
"Could it be that this aura fluctuation is brought about by this blue and white porcelain?" Lin Chen's heart moved.
"What do you think?" asked Sun Li with a smile.
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this, it should be good." ”
Saying that, Lin Chen picked up a stone Buddha next to him, and when the stone Buddha just arrived in Lin Chen's hand, he felt a thick aura fluctuation coming from his palm.
Compared to the blue and white porcelain just now, this aura fluctuation is much stronger.
Lin Chen looked at a few more antiques at random, and gradually determined his thoughts.
The greater the fluctuation of the aura, the older it proves that the object is old, but that blue and white porcelain is obviously from the Song Dynasty, how can the aura fluctuate so little? Is it a fake?
Lin Chen's gaze suddenly fell in front of a painting hanging on the wall, and then Sun Li walked over and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, this painting has been identified by the master, this is a modern imitation." ”
"Imitation?" Lin Chen was stunned in his heart.
On this painting, the aura is very strong, how can it be an imitation?
Lin Chen looked at the painting carefully, his eyes were fixed, and he finally discovered the universe in the painting.
"Is Boss Li's painting for sale?" Lin Chen asked.
Boss Li smiled awkwardly: "Hey, I've got an eye on this piece, it's a modern blind thing, if you like it, I'll sell it to you for 10,000." ”
"Okay, I want it. Lin Chen nodded.
Boss Li actually just casually offered a price, he originally wanted to throw away this blind goods, and he never vacated it, but he didn't expect to offer 10,000 yuan Lin Chen readily agreed.
When he heard that Lin Chen had bought a fake for 10,000 yuan, Lin Chen soon became the laughing stock of the entire auction house, and there were bursts of mocking voices in the room.
"Damn, isn't this stupid? ”
"People call money more capricious, and there is no place to spend money. ”
"Sun Shao, this friend of yours is really stupid and has a lot of money, knowing that he should go back, he is simply a stupid roe deer. Fat Hu laughed.
Sun Li's face was cloudy, he walked up to Lin Chen's side and whispered to blame: "This fake is a modern product, it is worthless at all, why don't you discuss it with me before buying it." ”
Lin Chen smiled proudly: "Who said it's worthless, this is the most valuable commodity in this room." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Sun Li was stunned for a moment.
"Well, keep this secret for the time being, and I'll tell you later. Lin Chen pretended to be mysterious.
The two were chatting, and the blue and white porcelain had begun to bid, and everyone's eyes were focused on the blue and white porcelain.
This blue and white porcelain was very popular, so the reserve price of 1.5 million was directly called to 3.6 million, and in the end, other buyers stopped bidding, only Sun Li and Hu Fatzi.
"I'm out of 3.7 million. Sun Li shouted.
"I'll give 3.8 million. Hu Fatzi did not show weakness.
"I'll give three million nine thousand. Sun Li gritted his teeth and said.
Both of them are the successors of the four major families of DY, and no one is convinced by anyone, so there are usually conflicts, the bidding for this blue and white porcelain has already far exceeded its own value, and now Sun Li and Hu Fatzi are competing at all.
"I'm out four million. Hu Fatzi hesitated for a moment and continued to increase the price.
Sun Li was just about to continue to increase the price, but Lin Chen suddenly pulled Sun Li and whispered beside him: "Brother Sun, there may be something wrong with this blue and white porcelain." ”
