Chapter 201: Trick Shop (1)
The young man was stunned for a moment, and explained with a confused expression: "Miss, we are an honest pawnshop, not an honest shop." ”
Ning Yun's face sank, and he shouted in a loud voice: "Is this really the case? Little brother, I'll give you a science popularization now, what is mutton fat white jade, bring me a basin of water to the girl. ”
There is no shortage of people who like to join in the fun, even in remote ancient towns, as soon as the momentum of Ning Yun came up, the people who did good things outside the store gradually gathered around one circle after another, watching the plot with great interest, and some of the brave ones also stepped into the doorrail to enjoy it up close.
The young man honestly brought a basin of clean water and placed it in front of the counter.
He is still in the state of half a bucket of water for the identification of many jade materials, there are many types of jade, and there are not many opportunities for rare ancient jade in this kind of place, and he also wants to see what this girl wants to do.
Ning Yun picked up the mutton fat white jade, shone it on the well-lit side, and said to the young man: "You can see, the color of a piece of mutton fat white jade is translucent in the light. On the contrary, the higher the transparency, or the opaque, is a sign of insufficient head. Now you open your dog's eyes wide and see, there is not enough water? ”
Under natural light, the jade halo is oily white, slightly yellowish, and translucent.
The young man's face turned pale in an instant, and a stream of bitter water surged in his abdomen, and he secretly sighed that he was unlucky, did he meet an expert today.
He hurriedly nodded in approval, and said, "This, enough, this jade water is full, but I didn't see it just now." ”
Ning Yun didn't continue to pay attention to him, his cuffs went up, and he soaked the whole palm of his jade pendant in the clear water, and continued to popularize science: "The best mutton fat white jade is very oily, and it is picked up after falling into the water, but it doesn't stick to the water." ”
Sure enough, when Ning Yun lifted the jade body again, the surface of the mutton fat white jade was not condensed, and it was clean as usual.
The crowd of onlookers pointed and pointed, as if they understood what was going on.
It's nothing more than that the young man wants to sit on the ground and lower the price, and wantonly belittles the quality of the jade pendant in order to pawn it at a low price.
The young man was in a state of embarrassment, and he didn't know where to put his hands down.
I thought that Ning Yun would not understand jade at all at a young age, but I didn't expect that he was an expert.
Cold sweat flowed down his forehead, and he said embarrassedly, "Indeed...... It is indeed a good piece of jade with excellent color. ”
"Hehe......" Ning Yun snorted coldly, looking at the posture and still didn't seem to want to stop, he continued to explain: "If you distinguish it carefully, the dragon and phoenix carvings on the jade pendant, the carving techniques of the dragon and the phoenix and the void, and the blending of the virtual and the real, this alone is a very high artistic treasure." ”
There seemed to be something wrong, Zhu Beichen listened to Ning Yun tease the young man, and at the same time paid attention to the actions of the onlookers.
There was a whispered discussion inside and outside, and there was something indescribably strange in everyone's voices and expressions, and for a while, I couldn't understand what was wrong with these people.
The young man was almost collapsed by Ning Yun, scratching his scalp, and shouting in his heart: Grandma, just spare me, I'm just a part-time worker, is it really okay for me to embarrass me like this?
Still July couldn't bear to continue the torture of Ning Yun, interrupted in time, and said kindly: "Little brother, don't worry too much, the fineness of the jade is good, you can see how much money you can be, we are not greedy, the price is right for you, are you optimistic?" ”
In this situation, where would he dare to confront Ning Yun again, nodding and thanking July with a grateful gaze, this fairy-like girl knows how to be considerate.
As soon as he wanted to speak, Ning Yun's cold gaze condensed again, and the young man wanted to die, so he had to say aggrievedly: "Miss, this jade is too valuable, and the small one is really not easy to value, can you wait for me to invite the shopkeeper to receive you?" ”
The value of high-grade mutton fat white jade in the eyes of knowledgeable people is immeasurable, and it is not possible to accept this jade pendant The price is mostly low.
July nodded in understanding, and the young man disappeared in front of the counter with a cigarette, and hurriedly climbed up to the second floor in a blink of an eye.
Zhu Beichen whispered in July's ear and said, "Didn't you notice that the onlookers outside were looking at us differently?" You'll have to be careful for a while. ”
Qiyue's eyes blinked slightly, indicating that he was also aware of this problem.
A moment later, the old staircase creaked, and an old man staggered down, followed by a young man.
The old man had a pair of heavy round-framed reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, his temples were gray, and he looked honest and heavy.
The young man blinked his eyes, and he couldn't wait to open his mouth and say, these are the three people, and they have to make the little brother and me miserable.
After the old man confirmed, he picked up the mutton fat white jade placed in front of the counter, and when he touched the jade body and the smooth carving on the jade with his hand, his eyes suddenly bloomed with a trace of brilliance.
He couldn't suppress his excitement, hurriedly held his reading glasses, skillfully held a magnifying glass in his left hand, and carefully looked at the glossy lines and carvings of the jade body.
After confirming the doubt again, he asked in a condensed voice: "A few distinguished guests, dare to ask what price do you want to make this jade pendant?" ”
Generally, the pawnshop rules are that the shopkeeper quotes, and the pawn decides whether to accept it or not. But now the old people asked, and they didn't know how to raise the price.
Zhu Beichen just thought about opening his mouth to test a few words, but he didn't think that July, who was ignorant of the world, was one step faster: "Old man, businessmen pay attention to the word integrity, what we ask for is not high, and the value of jade will naturally not be low, you just need to give us a satisfactory price." ”
Most of the shrewd apprentice's kung fu was learned from Mr., and this old man was naturally not confused, and he was experienced in society, so he naturally saw that the July party did not understand the market price, so he stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of the eyes of the three people.
Ning Yun first asked with a heavy face: "Fifty thousand?" The two of them had a much vagueer concept of money, and compared to Ning Yun's familiarity with jade knowledge, they were obviously laymen in this regard.
The old man didn't take over the conversation, but still repeatedly gestured with his palms, hinting slyly, refusing to say a word more.
July frowned slightly, and pinched Zhu Beichen's palm with a slender jade hand, prompting that it was up to you to decide.
"That's it, a million, we won't be able to do it if we don't have a penny."
He finally has a sense of superiority in being the master of the house, he was originally a poor boy, let alone 50,000, even 5,000 is enough to make himself stunned. Now I am afraid that the old man will not agree to mention one million, so I will simply bite the price.
