Chapter 402: In the Name of a "Friend".

"And if it's a magic weapon, how much is it worth?"

It's not that Boss Liu owes it, but he really wants to know how much money this copper furnace can sell when it is used as a magic weapon. Of course, there is also a comparison mentality in it, and Boss Liu doesn't believe that the price of magic weapons can be higher than antiques.

"This ...... It's not easy to say......" Tang Chen hesitated a little, "After all, the purpose of this magic weapon is a bit narrow, and those who don't worship God and worship Buddha at home won't want this kind of magic weapon." If you are a person who worships God and worships Buddha, you may not know that this copper furnace is also a kind of Dharma instrument. However, this ritual has another effect, which is to calm the mind and calm the mind, which is very effective in calming the mind......"

Boss Liu also nodded: "I understand, that is to say, 'each spends its own eyes', and different people will pay different prices?"

Tang Chen nodded and said, "That's right, but if it's my magic weapon, I won't sell it cheaply." Although it is only a low-level magic weapon, its aura formed over the years is extremely pure, less than 100,000, I will not sell it......"

"Well, the price of 100,000 is not too expensive...... What, 100,000 bucks?"

Boss Liu was halfway through speaking, and he suddenly came to his senses and was so shocked that he couldn't hold his tongue. "It's still an antique, then...... Selling both antiques and ritual utensils, wouldn't you have to sell them for 200,000 yuan?" "Boss Liu has already regretted selling it so cheaply, and this business is depressing!"

From the perspective of human nature, no one wants to be made money by others, after all, this means that they have suffered a loss, and Boss Liu is naturally no exception.

But Tang Chen seemed to understand his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Boss Liu, these are two different concepts at all. People who like antiques will naturally buy the historical value of this copper furnace, and people who trade in feng shui will not buy it because it is an antique, and they must buy it because this copper furnace has an aura and is a magic vessel. ”

Boss Liu thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was the case.

There are things that have two values at the same time, and most of the time they stack. But in the two fields that are not related, it is not necessarily. Just like this copper furnace, it is both an antique and a ritual weapon, and if you want to sell it for a high price, you have to see whether it has a high historical value or a high value as a ritual weapon.

But Boss Liu didn't have a choice, after all, he didn't know that this copper furnace was a magic weapon in advance, otherwise he might raise the price to the sky.

"Then this little master, you just said 'aura' many times, I don't know what this 'aura' refers to, are there any other magic weapons with 'aura' in my shop?" But unfortunately, Tang Chen is not a fool.

Boss Liu's thoughts, Tang Chen knew it clearly, it was nothing more than wanting to get acquainted with it a little bit, so he wanted to get something out of Tang Chen's mouth. In fact, many people have this idea of wanting to be served plainly, and they want to take advantage of it when they are just "friends". You know, Tang Chen casually pointed out, that honorarium is already thousands, you just know the name of the nodding friend, you want to get this kind of service? Do you think others are too stupid, or do you think you are too smart?

Tang Chen remembered that his psychology teacher in college said something: this teacher had published articles on psychology on the Internet before, and he had also opened psychology courses on some platforms. As a result, many readers followed his article to find his WeChat account. Tang Chen's teacher said that after adding a reader, the first thing that person said in the chat was: "I like your article very much, let's make friends." ”

This teacher is also very sincere and has a friendly expression. Then, the next day, the reader sent a message to the teacher, "How are you? Do you have any books on psychology that you recommend?" and the teacher didn't think much of it, and transferred it to the reader about his own list of books.

On the third day, the reader sent another message to this teacher: "Hello, I wrote an article, I don't know if it is well written, can you help me take a look?"

On the fourth day, the reader didn't send anything. On the fifth day, the reader's message came: "I have always felt that something is wrong recently, but I can't say it, can you enlighten me?" Then the reader sent one: "?"

Everyone understands the subtext, that is, where did you die, why didn't you come back. At that time, this teacher blew up, thinking that I would pay 300 yuan an hour for offline counseling by myself, why should I give you free counseling and enlighten you?!

In class, when this teacher said this, Tang Chen understood. The teacher's reader is basically trying to exchange the friend's service function for him with the phrase "I like your article very much, let's make friends". In just five days, that reader can be said to have earned it. He tried to exchange one sentence for the teacher's three free online services: book lists, one-on-one free online tutoring for essays, and free online psychological counseling. Of course, the third service was not implemented.

So everyone can see that this reader's so-called making friends is equivalent to exchanging for free services.

Tang Chen found that many people were doing things to take advantage of in the "name of friends". To put it nicely, it's consumer friendship, and to put it badly, it's to buy things without giving money. However, this is the root of human inferiority, and the more educated people are, the more they like to do it. People with high cultivation know that even if it is someone else's guidance, it is not free. After all, Chinese are not used to paying for knowledge now, but people's knowledge is not obtained out of thin air?

Tang Chen believes that real friends will not start because of the sentence "Let's make friends". Utilitarian and deliberate friends are all painting snakes and whitewashing emotions.

Tang Chen agrees with one sentence: friends themselves are useless and should not be used.

If you really want to use a friend, be sure to respect the friend and don't let the friend suffer. Friendship can't stand the disadvantage, let alone the consumption. I'm very cautious when I ask my friends for help. The more friends you are, the more you have to give money, or treat you to dinner. In particular, if you want to use your friend's professional ability or technology, you have to give money. Don't confuse sentiment with business, sentiment is affection, and business is business.

At first, those who like to take advantage of their friends have a lot of friends standing behind them. Occupy and occupy, there are still three or five left. Occupy and occupy, there are one or two left. Today, he suddenly looked back and found that there was no one behind him.
