Chapter 17 Calawe Antique Shop

It should be a time relationship, and there is only one middle-aged man in the antique shop sorting out the antiques in the store.

Hearing the wind chimes, the middle-aged man looked over, put down the feather duster in his hand and walked over.

"Savadica!"

"Is the guest here to buy something?"

Zheng Jing looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Are you the owner of this shop?"

"I'm the owner of this shop, and my name is Calaway." Calaaway said.

Since the man in front of him was the owner of the shop, Zheng Jing took off his backpack and said, "Do you collect antiques here?"

Calaaway looked curiously at the backpack in his hand, and when he heard this, he instantly understood.

"Are you going to sell something? I don't know what it is, can you take it out and take a look? ”

Zheng Jing opened his backpack and took out the gilded brass four-sided Buddha statue first.

"(⊙o⊙) Wow!"

The moment he saw this Buddha statue, Karawi was amazed.

"This Buddha statue is so exquisite."

Placing the Buddha statue on the table, Karawi looked around the Buddha statue and marveled.

As an antique shop owner, it stands to reason that Calawi has seen a lot of things, but it also depends on what it is, like this four-faced Buddha statue, he had only seen it once ten years ago, and he had not seen such a beautiful four-faced Buddha statue since.

That's why he was so surprised when he saw this four-faced Buddha statue, because this Buddha statue reminded him of the one he had seen ten years ago.

He missed that Buddha statue ten years ago, and this time he wasn't going to miss it again.

Seeing Calawi looking at the gilded brass four-sided Buddha statue with a surprised face, Zheng Jing originally wanted to take out the rest of the things, but now he still forgot about it at a glance.

Calaaway looked at it for a while, put down the magnifying glass in his hand and said, "Are you going to sell this Buddha statue?"

Zheng Jing pointed to his backpack and said, "Not only this Buddha statue, but also some things."

Well? And also.

Hearing that he still had something to sell, Calaway quickly cleaned up the table next to him.

"Get everything out."

Zheng Jing placed the rune dagger, two votive tridents, and the guardian ring on the table.

Seeing these four items, Calaway's eyes lit up and he said happily, "Is there anything else?"

After thinking about it, he took out the amulet again.

"This is the last one, no more."

Seeing the five items on the table, Karaway put on his glasses, took a magnifying glass and said, "I'll take a look first."

While he was inspecting the items, Zheng Jing also looked at the store with a curious expression.

The antique shop is about 80 square meters, and there are two red shelves on the left and right sides next to the wall.

These two shelves are large and filled with porcelain.

In addition to these two shelves, there are several smaller shelves, which are placed in the store.

There is a wide variety of items on these shelves.

In particular, the shelves closest to him were filled with gold jewelry.

In an antique shop, oil paintings are the most indispensable.

The same is true of this shop, where the walls are covered with oil paintings.

Calaaway quickly identified five items.

What I didn't say was a boutique.

In particular, rune daggers and votive tridents are even rarer.

In addition to the amulet, he had to buy the remaining five items.

He rubbed his eyes, and then said, "I want all six items, let's talk about the price."

Karawai picked up the Buddha statue and asked, "How much are you going to cost for this item?"

Zheng Jing thought of the price given by the system and said, "600,000."

After saying that, he regretted it, and he had to say that it was better to talk high, so that it would be a good bargain.

Calaaway gave him a deep look and shook his head, "This price is too high."

Anyway, he knew the highest price and the lowest price, and said directly: "You name a price, how much can you offer?"

Calawi thought for a moment, holding out three fingers.

"Three hundred thousand."

Good guy, this is a bargain, this is a hacking.

Seeing the price he offered, Zheng Jing didn't give him ink, and said, "Five hundred and eighty thousand, this Buddha."

If you take it, I'll take it back. ”

As he spoke, he opened his backpack and prepared to put the Buddha statue back.

Seeing that it didn't look like a lie, Calaway immediately pressed his hand and said, "Okay, that's the price."

Now that the Buddha statues have been discussed, the remaining five items are faster.

The rune dagger sold for 120,000.

Two votive tridents were sold for 260,000.

The guardian ring sold for fifty thousand.

The lowest price is the amulet, which was sold for a minimum price of 3,000 yuan.

Calawi didn't want this amulet, but in the end, he reluctantly accepted it after he said the lowest price.

In the end, the items sold for one hundred and thirteen thousand.

After waiting in the store for a while, when he received a text message from the bank and saw that there was no problem, Zheng Jing said hello to Karaway and left here.

Walking out of the antique shop, Zheng Jing looked at the pedestrians coming and going, and didn't know what to do for a while.

Just as he was thinking about whether to go back to the hotel, a pedestrian with a mobile phone walked past him.

Thinking of his phone, he remembered that he had been in Thailand for so long and had not shot a few videos.

Thinking of this, he instantly had a goal.

He took a look at the closest attraction to him.

Apart from Erawan Shrine, the nearest is Siam Square.

In the distance are the Grand Palace and Wat Arun.

Just as he was in the car to the Grand Palace, Roman, the head of Sotheby's auction house in Asia, called him.

After the phone was connected, Roman told him the time and address of the auction.

"You're in Thailand right now? That's great, are you in the hotel now? I asked the staff to send you the invitation. ”

"I'm outside now, you ask the staff to hand over the invitation to the hotel front desk, and I'm taking it when I go back."

Roman thought for a moment and agreed with his words.

"Okay, I'll have someone put the invitation at the front desk, don't forget to take it when you go back."

"Don't worry, I can't forget it."

"That's okay, you get busy first, don't forget the time, on the twentieth of this month, at six o'clock in the evening, Shangri-La Hotel, Hall 3."

Roman, afraid that he had forgotten, said it again.

Hanging up the phone, he looked at the time, today is the twelfth, and there are still eight days to go.

………………

After getting out of the car, Zheng Jing found that there were a lot of people here.

He glanced at it casually and saw no less than three tour groups.

Hearing that familiar language, I didn't run away, I came from China.

Because there are so many people who come to visit, there is a long queue to buy tickets.

While queuing, he took out his phone and took a picture of the palace walls in front of him.

The team moved quickly, and it was not long before he arrived.

He looked at the price, and the ticket cost five hundred baht.

Bought a ticket and gave him a piece of paper.

He looked at it, and there were a lot of precautions written on it.

First of all, there is the question of dress.

First: you can't show your shoulders and your knees down.

Second: no tights, no ripped pants;

Third: Many buildings in Omiya need to be entered barefoot, so be careful to take off your shoes.

In addition to clothing, there is also a place where you can enter with a ticket.

In addition to the fact that there are no restrictions on the outside of the palace, many palaces in the Grand Palace have restrictions.

Tourists can visit the three places: the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, the Grand Palace, and the Teak Palace.

After reading these precautions, he walked in with his ticket.

The Grand Palace, also known as the Grand Palace, is the palace of the Thai royal family.

Located next to the Chao Phraya River, the Grand Palace is a large-scale complex of ancient buildings in the heart of Bangkok.

If you look down from the top, you will find that the construction of the whole Bangkok is centered on the Grand Palace, with temples and official buildings in the first circle, commercial circles in the second circle, residential areas in the third circle, and slums in the outermost circle.

The Grand Palace was built in 1782 and has undergone continuous repairs and expansions by successive kings to complete this massive Grand Palace complex, which is still splendid over the years.

After Rama VIII was assassinated in the palace in 1946, Rama IX moved to the newly built Jiradha Palace to the east of the Grand Palace.

Now, the Grand Palace is open to the public on weekdays, except for ceremonies and events such as coronations and court celebrations.

The Grand Palace, built with the help of the whole country, is home to the best of Thai painting and sculpture as well as decorative arts.

Because Thailand is a country that believes in Buddhism, Buddhist elements can be seen everywhere in the architecture of the Grand Palace.
