Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Rabble
The middle-aged woman standing on the side saw that Mu Linfeng looked professional, so she didn't say anything to stop her. The eyes of the onlookers were also focused on Mu Linfeng.
In fact, Mu Linfeng still needs to pick it up and see. He has followed Mu Xiangyang around this antique street since the second grade of primary school, and most of the vendors in this antique street are not as qualified as Mu Linfeng.
The "Jade Weng Zhong" taken out by the vendor is indeed made by Hetian Jade. Mu Linfeng only glanced at it and saw it.
"Yes, good stuff indeed. And this jade Weng Zhong adopts the Han Dynasty style "Han Eight Knife" carving method, its color is ancient, the face is only carved with eyes and mouth, only three to five knives short yin line carving, showing the shape of the inverted "product", plain face, even the eyes, mouth is not carved, the eyelid is oblong! The carving technique is also top-notch! Mu Linfeng commented on this jade Weng Zhong while watching.
The people next to them saw that Mu Linfeng was talking about the Tao, and some people had already begun to accuse the middle-aged couple.
"Maybe they're pretending to be pitiful here and trying to blackmail other people's bosses!"
"In these years, there is everyone!"
"Hey~, I look very particular about dressing, how do I do this? If you can't afford it, don't buy it! ”
Public opinion in the crowd has obviously changed after Mu Linfeng's comment. The middle-aged couple's faces were flushed, and the wife was even a little unbearable, unable to stand, squatting on the ground and crying. The middle-aged man wanted to resist, but he didn't know what to say.
The vendor looked at the couple with a smug look on his face, showing no mercy.
Mu Linfeng spoke at this time: "Boss, what is the price of your jade Wengzhong?" ”
"One hundred and eighty thousand! My supply is guaranteed, you get what you pay for! Well, they bought it at this price just now, but they're looking for trouble here! The vendor said with a frown on his face.
Mu Linfeng took the jade Weng Zhong and walked a few steps closer to the middle-aged couple. The middle-aged man's eyes were full of anger and he glared at Mu Linfeng.
"Big brother, the jade Weng Zhong sold by this boss is indeed made of Hetian jade, you see, this carving technique is also the style of the Han Dynasty. Have you been deceived by others? Mu Linfeng asked with a little concern in the face of the middle-aged man's anger.
The middle-aged man was even more annoyed when he heard Mu Linfeng's words. But he didn't know what to say, his face turned red, he pointed at Mu Linfeng, and he was panting vigorously.
The middle-aged woman squatted on the ground, holding her knees with her hands, her head raised from the crook of her arm, and said with a crying voice: "I was kind enough to persuade you before!" You and he turned out to be in the same group! I'm going to call the police! ”
When the vendor heard the middle-aged woman say that she was going to call the police, he was not nervous at all. This is when the police come, and there is nothing they can do about him. That's what the antique street has always done. He didn't break the law, and at best he was dishonest.
"Eldest sister, can you show me your jade Weng Zhong?" Mu Linfeng leaned down and asked softly.
"No! What if this kid does something! The middle-aged man immediately refused.
Mu Linfeng saw that these two people had a deep misunderstanding of him, thought for a moment, and glanced around at the lively crowd. Said loudly: "Everyone, this jade Weng Zhong in my hand is indeed made of Hetian jade, and I also said the carving technique just now, it is a fake Han Eight Knife." Although the price of 180,000 is not cheap, this boss did not deceive me. ”
Speaking of this, Mu Linfeng paused. Seeing that the onlookers listened carefully, the vendor also looked at the onlookers quite proudly.
"This eldest brother doesn't want to show me the jade Weng Zhong in his hand, don't worry. Now I'll talk about how to distinguish this Han Badao Jade Weng Zhong in detail, you can refer to the Weng Zhong in the hands of this big brother to see if it matches. ”
The vendor's face changed, and he reacted that this young man was going to tear down the stage. Immediately said: "You know a fart!" Is Yu Weng Zhong only called Yu Weng Zhong if he is carved with eight swords? Don't fool around here, don't buy it for me! ”
Before Mu Linfeng could speak, the people around him began to coax, all of them were not big enough to watch the excitement.
"Show him what's wrong!"
"If your stuff is real, what are you afraid of?"
"Damn, I have long seen this boss with a sinister face, and he must have done something to let him see it!"
Mu Linfeng saw that the population of the onlookers was changing so quickly, and his heart suddenly became disdainful. They are all a rabble, and everyone is the lord.
Without waiting for the vendor to speak again, Mu Linfeng raised the jade Weng Zhong in his hand and said, "Han Badao, the face is only cut into the eyes and mouth!" Let's see if Weng Zhong in the hands of the eldest brother is like this? ”
The middle-aged man showed gratitude on his face at this time, looked at the jade Weng Zhong in his hand, and then raised it.
Everyone saw that this jade Weng Zhong's face was very finely carved, and even the eyebrows were extremely exquisitely carved.
"No, this face is different from what the young man said!" The closer people in the onlookers said.
Mu Linfeng cleared his throat and motioned for everyone to continue. The surroundings suddenly fell silent again.
"The neck and waist of Yu Weng Zhong in the Han Dynasty are used to withdraw the knife, so that the neck and the lower part of the waist appear flat, in a triangular oblique plane, so that the head is more obvious, the waist has a sense of contour, and the hem of the clothing is in the shape of a chicken coop, which is the style characteristics of Weng Zhong in the Han Dynasty! Let's see if the carving technique below is in line? Mu Linfeng explained loudly.
Seeing that Mu Linfeng spoke so carefully, everyone had more trust in him.
"That's not right! The body of Jade Weng Zhong in the hands of this big brother is in the shape of a straight bucket! Another sharp-eyed person next to him saw the difference and said loudly.
Mu Linfeng was still harmless to humans and animals, looking at the vendor with a smiling expression. It seemed to be telling the vendor, "I want to play with the master, you're still early!" ”
"Fart! Even if my jade Weng Zhong is not carved by the Han Eight Knife technique, isn't it Yu Weng Zhong? There are so many jade carving techniques, it is difficult to carve according to the techniques of the Han Eight Knife, so it is called Jade Weng Zhong! The vendor's brain also turned quickly, and he immediately organized the language and began to fight back.
The onlookers listened to what the vendor said, and it did make sense. looked at Mu Linfeng with a puzzled look on his face.
Indeed, as the vendors said, there are thousands of jade carving techniques, such as the calligraphy and painting, each family has a different style. It is indeed a bit far-fetched to judge the authenticity of this thing just by the carving technique.
"Good! Then let's talk about this jade quality! Mu Linfeng said with a smile.
"Did you say just now that it was Hetian Yu Weng Zhong who sold it to this eldest brother?" Mu Linfeng pointed to Weng Zhong in the middle-aged man's hand, and then asked.
"That's right! We just want to buy Hetian jade, and we heard from friends that this jade Weng Zhong can drive away evil spirits, so we came to this antique street to find this object! To put it clearly, it must be Hetian Yu. The middle-aged man heard Mu Linfeng's words and said with some excitement.
The vendor didn't answer, looking a little nervous, looking around and not knowing what he was looking at.
"Hey! People ask you! Someone in the crowd shouted.
"You care about me, this antique street has always been bought and left! After the money has been paid, the money and goods are cleared, and they have nothing to do with each other! The vendor didn't answer directly, and began to quibble.
Everyone heard the meaning of these words, wasn't it just to deceive the middle-aged couple.
Mu Linfeng ignored it and continued: "Hetian Yu feels the pressure on the hand, it can't be glass light, it must be oily, and it has a very moist feel when you push it, and it can't slip or be astringent, this is the most basic identification method." But the Weng Zhong that this eldest brother took was dry, translucent, and had many impurities, which was clearly a Zhunger jade. ”
When the people heard this, they surrounded the vendor and made accusations. The middle-aged couple looked grateful and a little ashamed at the same time, ashamed that they had wrongly blamed Mu Linfeng before.
Some people in the crowd began to applaud Mu Linfeng, impressed by what he had done and his rich knowledge of antiques.
"Refund the money!"
"Yes, return the money!"
The crowd of onlookers was agitated and shouted at the vendor.
"Fuck, I'm getting impatient! It's all open to Lao Tzu! There was an angry shout from outside the crowd.
I saw a few guys with cigarettes in their mouths, dressed like serious people, standing there, carrying sticks in their hands. The leader is a fat man, with a belly like a pregnant October, wearing a vest, and a belly like a huge basketball in front.
"Fat brother! This kid is making trouble here and messing with my business! The vendor shouted at the man in charge, pointing at Mu Linfeng.
"What's the matter, you can't slander people, and you still want to beat people?" Mu Linfeng said with a sneer.
The fat man called Fat Brother walked towards Mu Linfeng with a big belly, his arms open on both sides of his body like a crab, and he looked arrogant.
", you're pretty awesome! Today, Lao Tzu, your mother doesn't know you! The fat brother pointed at Mu Linfeng and said, the foaming stars were about to spray on Mu Linfeng's face.
What Mu Linfeng hates most is these ruffians who gather a group of people on weekdays and run rampant.
I'm going to teach them a lesson!
A voice came from the crowd: "Old Fatty, are you doing well now?" ”
Mu Linfeng was a little familiar when he heard this voice, and saw the person who spoke walk out.
The person who spoke was Han Qingwen.
Seeing Han Qingwen, the fat man was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, and his arms, which were open like crabs just now, were also put away, put them on his chest, and shouted respectfully: "Han Shao! ”
Han Qingwen didn't reply, he went up and slapped him a few times, and the fat man who hit him stood unsteadily, and sat on the ground with his ass. But as soon as he fell, he immediately stood up, ran to Han Qingwen, and stood straight.
"Bang!" Han Qingwen kicked over, and the fat man turned over a few times directly.
"Big brother, is this so evil that it must be eliminated!" Han Qingwen asked Mu Linfeng with a smile.
Mu Linfeng shook his head, and sighed in his heart how this kid was like a child, as if he had done a good thing, as if his parents were asking for praise.
"Hehe, count! Why are you here! Mu Linfeng asked with a smile.
"Big brother, let's talk about it later, I saw what happened just now, I'll eliminate evil and promote good first, and then I'll tell you!" Han Qingwen replied.
Just now, Han Qingwen followed Mu Linfeng to the antique street, and he had been watching what was happening. He originally thought that Mu Linfeng was just like the previous masters of the Hefeng Martial Dao, with the ability to defy the sky. I didn't expect that this pair of antique jade also has a lot of understanding, and I admire it even more.
Han Qingwen shouted to the fat man: "Old fat, I have handled this matter beautifully, I will spare you." If I'm not satisfied, you know me. ”
After speaking, he pulled Mu Linfeng and prepared to leave.
"Well, how do you sell this piece of jade?" Mu Linfeng walked to the front of the stall, picked up Puyu who had just felt the fluctuation of spiritual power and asked.
The vendor looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer, so he turned his head to look at the fat man and said, "Fat brother, how can this be sold?" ”
"Your own business, you ask me?" Lao Fei was miserable by him today, and he had no place to spill his anger, so he replied angrily.
"As much as it should be, as much as it should be!" Mu Linfeng then asked.
"One!" The vendor raised a finger against his guts.
"Ten thousand? Quite an appetite! Han Qingwen saw that this piece of jade was also average, although the volume was not small, but it was not carved, this kid actually asked for 10,000, so he scolded.
"No, no! A! The vendor hurriedly said.
Mu Linfeng couldn't cry or laugh, these people usually bully some vulnerable groups, and they really met ruthless characters, all of them were cowards.
So he took out 10,000 yuan from his wallet and threw it to the vendor. In his eyes, this rough stone is far more than this price, and 10,000 yuan to buy it is considered a leak.
After paying the money, he put the rough stone in his bag, and left the antique street with Han Qingwen.
