When Lao Liu heard Xu Qing's offer, he shook his head without thinking: "What are you fooling around, you want such a good thing for eight hundred yuan?" If you want to do good things, no, 100,000 is 100,000. ”

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and said: "That is, if you come, I will show you, otherwise, I will sell it in the store after a while, if the store can't give me a satisfactory price, I will send it to auction, anyway, I am not in a hurry to use the money, good things, I can't just sell at a loss." ”

Xu Qing smiled: "Lao Liu, are you so sure that this brand is a good thing?" ”

"Of course, although my eyesight is not as good as a genius like you, but I have also worked hard in the antique market for more than 20 years, and I still have experience, I was picked up by your kid a few days ago, I must be very interested, I have carefully studied this brand, and the one that sold you a few days ago is almost exactly the same, that can be sold for two million, this one for 100,000, is it too much? You say, is it excessive? ”

Xu Qing was speechless.

It sounds like there is a little bit of truth, eat a trench and grow a wisdom.

The problem is, this old Liu doesn't know where the trench was eaten a few days ago, and he still takes it out as an analogy, can this be the same? Oh, it's all Hetian jade, the carvings are all fairy themes, and the shapes are the same, it does look a little similar.

However, it is similar, antiques, even if there is 99% similarity, it is useless, as long as there is a difference of 1%, it may be the difference between true and fake, and the price is naturally very different.

No wonder Lao Liu has been in the circle for so many years and still sets up a stall, and he really hasn't made much progress, and the so-called experience accumulated over the years is just sitting on the ground and starting the price.

However, he still said patiently: "Lao Liu, this is just similar, the jade carving industry has to produce I don't know how many tens of thousands of brands of this shape and theme every year, this can't explain the problem at all, you look at this carving, the nicks are so clear and smooth, at first glance, it is carved out of electric knives, which is completely different from the manual knife carving......

"I see, this can only show that the skills of the ancients are clever, I tell you, don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancestors, the ancestors may be almost meaningful in science and technology, but in the handicraft is first-class, many skills can not even be done with modern technology, this carving is the same......"

Yes, it's really this set.

Xu Qing has heard similar words a long time ago, I don't know how many times.

There is always such a group of people in the circle, and at every turn it is how the ancestors were wise, how the ancients mastered more advanced skills than modern science and technology, etc., blowing the traditional handicrafts to the gods, and interpreting the face of worshiping the past and degrading the present to the fullest.

Yes, the ancients were clever and created many amazing achievements of civilization, but that was a horizontal comparison, measured from the perspective of hundreds or even thousands of years.

Compared with modern technology, which one can compare?

Even if it is an antique, most of the antiques are not as good as modern handicrafts in terms of quality, workmanship and quality.

The reason why antiques are more valuable is because these things have traces of history and years, and many high-quality antiques are made at any cost with a lot of material resources and manpower, which are unique and cannot be copied and replaced, are unique products, and are non-renewable rare resources, so antiques are valuable, not because the level of ancient craftsmanship is really stronger than the level of modern craftsmanship.

To give the simplest example, let's say porcelain, if you remove the history, age and other factors, only than the level of craftsmanship, Jingdezhen at any slightly level of the studio fired porcelain, in ancient times that are all national treasure-level things, size, enamel, fetal quality and even painting can crush the ancient craftsmen, the output is not to compare, the modern process is the crushing level, an old and a new two pieces of porcelain in front of the emperor, the emperor absolutely chooses the new, because the new porcelain can really make the quality of the complete no shortcomings.

It is only in today's social environment that antiques are non-renewable and limited in rare resources, which has become a hot spot sought after by people.

However, there are many people who know this truth, but few people dare to say it.

This is especially true in the antique shop, some people know but pretend to be confused, because it is profitable, and they eat this mouthful.

Some people are really confused, and they don't know what to collect after tossing around in the antique shop for half their lives.

Lao Liu is obviously the one who is really confused, and he really moved the things in the literature of the stall to the stall to sell it.

However, Xu Qing was not interested in correcting Lao Liu's opinion, but shook his head and said: "I know what you said better than you, so I'll ask you, where is the value of your brand?" Is toning real? The carver is excellent? Or is the jade quality high-grade? ”

"Hey, hey, I'm sure I don't understand what you're talking about, but I know one thing, what you're looking for is definitely a good thing."

“……”

This completely made Xu Qing dumb.

How else to bargain?

If he does it like Lao Liu in the future, he won't want to pick up any more leaks in his life.

That's the negative effect of being too high-profile.

He had expected it.

It's just that I didn't expect it to work so quickly, and it's only been one night.

It is said that there are no secrets in the antique shop, and it is true.

In the first few years, it was better, but over the years, the news in the circle has spread faster and faster, and if there is a slight stir, it can spread all over the country in a few minutes.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing waved his hand: "Forget it, I don't want this brand, you can sell it." ”

Then move on to the others.

It's just that the result is obvious, no matter which price he asks, Lao Liu will quote a very outrageous price, less than one or two thousand, more than seventy or eighty thousand, and even more than ten or two hundred thousand.

In this regard, he didn't even think about being angry, he just felt funny.

Of course, I didn't buy any of them.

Turn around and leave without looking, even if there are really good things in Lao Liu's stall.

After walking for more than ten meters, he turned back, but was stunned to find that Lao Liu's side had been tightly surrounded, and almost every piece was carefully studied in his hands, and some people even almost fought in order to grab a position.

What's going on?

Celebrity?

It must be!

A few days ago, Lao Liu's business boomed because of his wave of high-profile publicity.

Yesterday, his fame went up a notch, and Lao Liu's side will naturally be more prosperous, coupled with what he just said, it will naturally help Lao Liu attract more buyers.

Invisibly, he has become Lao Liu's spokesperson, and it is still free.

Xu Qing stood for a moment and raised a middle finger towards Lao Liu.

After all, he was a little tender, underestimating Lao Liu's old qualifications, and being able to mix in this industry for more than 20 years without starving to death or changing careers is indeed unique.

But it can't just be calculated.

Moreover, his master asked him to come to the market to go around, and he definitely didn't ask him to help Lao Liu attract business.

Therefore, I have to talk to Lao Liu later.
