Chapter 125: Professor Kim's Strength
"Yes, I don't know what the old gentleman is called?"
I looked at the old man in front of me, and I could tell from his expression that this old man definitely had studied bronzes.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to see Shang Dynasty bronzes in such good condition in my lifetime."
The old man didn't pay attention to it, but directly took the bronze on the table in his hand and observed it carefully.
"I wonder how much you can produce of this thing?"
After a long time, the old gentleman finally spoke.
I held out five fingers, and the expression on my face was not in the slightest way to refuse.
The old gentleman shook his head with a smile and placed the bronze on the table.
Then he pulled me to sit down.
"Young man, you can't be too greedy, don't look at my age, I'm very good at studying these things."
The old man looked confident, and he looked like he was about to discount the price with me.
"Sir, I bought this thing at a great price, I just added a point to the price I received, I can't make a loss-making deal, right?"
Hearing what I said, the old gentleman smiled.
"How did you get here, I guess I don't need to say more."
Hearing the old gentleman's words, I smiled awkwardly.
"It seems that you always know everything, so you can make an offer."
After all, this bronze was also snatched from Wang Tiezhu's hand, and it was not worth a lot of money in exchange for that blue and white porcelain.
But I think this old gentleman is also a knowledgeable person, and the price is not too outrageous.
After I finished speaking, the old gentleman actually held up two fingers.
"Twenty thousand?"
I'm a little shocked, even if it's a bargain, you can't cut it like this, this bronze is worth forty or fifty thousand, and he actually gave me twenty thousand?
"It's not 20,000, it's 200."
it!
I was stunned,
This is even more ruthless than robbery, two hundred yuan can I fight with Wang Tiezhu and them?
"Old man, you are also deceiving people too much, your price is simply my life."
The old gentleman did not refute after hearing this, but shook his head slightly.
"Young man, I think you should also specialize in this business, you must know that these are all cultural relics belonging to the state, and it stands to reason that they should be handed over to the state free of charge."
Listening to the old man's words, I was a little speechless, no matter how much this old man said, he was an upside-down cultural relic, since he still said such righteous and awe-inspiring words to me.
I didn't reply, but put the bronze in my pocket and got up to leave.
"Hey, young man, what are you doing here, can't you still explain the rules of the road? Sit down and we'll have a good talk. ”
When the old gentleman saw that I was getting up to leave, he was instantly anxious.
But I have made up my mind, and this old guy is not here to talk sincerely, but to smash the field.
In that case, why should I waste time with him?
I turned around and smiled at the old gentleman.
"Sir, I'm sorry, what you just said moved me very much, this thing is indeed a national treasure, and I also hope to be able to send it to the country and contribute more to the inheritance of Chinese culture, but I also want to eat, I can't starve myself to death for this kind of righteousness."
I smiled and went out through the door.
Manager Liang stopped me.
"Brother, there are still things we can discuss, even if the deal is not lovely."
Manager Liang persuaded me to sit down while accompanying the smiling face.
"Haha, Manager Liang, I'll ask you now, do you think this bronze is only worth two hundred?"
"Of course not......"
"Manager Liang, although I am in this business, I also have a bottom line, it is impossible to sell the cultural relics that come out of my hands to foreigners, but I also have to support my family, right?"
After hearing my words, Manager Liang smiled awkwardly.
The old gentleman also stood up, "Hey, little brother, come here, what's the big deal, I'll just add money to you." ”
Hearing that the old gentleman was relenting, I was also very satisfied, nodded and sat down again.
"You make a price, and if you are satisfied, you will make a deal directly."
The old gentleman looked at me, showed a sly smile, and then slowly spit out three words: "Twenty thousand." ”
"Twenty thousand? Old man, are you calling Hanako? ”
I almost jumped when I heard his offer.
I really can't accept this price.
"Hey, I've been doing this for a long time, if you still have this kind of thing in the future, you can sell it all to me, and I can collect it at a high price."
Now that the old gentleman had begun to draw me cakes again, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
How could you possibly come to him with something next time?
He only gave me a fracture price for something worth forty or fifty thousand, so I might as well go to the antique market and find someone who knows how to sell it, which is higher than this.
"Little brother, you may not know that the old gentleman in front of you is Professor Jin of the National Archaeological Bureau, and he paid 20,000 yuan out of his own pocket, and he can't afford it more."
At this time, Manager Liang spoke.
After hearing Manager Liang's words, I glanced at this old gentleman with some surprise.
National Archaeological Agency?
Doesn't that mean that the old man in front of him is an expert in the archaeological field, no wonder what he just said is so profound.
"Hahaha, I see, it looks like I'm offended."
I clenched my fist at the old gentleman.
"Don't dare, little brother, let's continue talking."
"Since Professor Jin you said 20,000, let's make a deal for 20,000."
I waved my hand, anyway, even if I sell it for 20,000 yuan, I won't lose money.
"I think you are also capable, and you must be doing the things of the Thief Empire."
Professor Kim looked at me suspiciously, and I was a little shocked when I heard this.
Professor Kim saw through my identity at a glance.
"Professor Jin is really a professor, and this ability is admired."
I slapped a sycophant, and the old guy actually liked to listen to it.
"Haha, little brother, I won't lie to you, our archaeological team lacks talents like you, if you have an idea, I can let you work in my archaeological team."
Professor Jin made it clear that he was going to take me in, but I am not stupid, as long as I join this archaeological team, even if there are any good discoveries in the future, I can only hand them over to the state.
If it's like me, it's not going to work.
What's more, I still have Xu Jinxiu and a large group of them, my palm is not white-eyed, I can't eat enough, I am hungry for them.
"Professor Jin, I appreciate your kindness, but I'm not the material for this business, if you need help, I can help, but forget about it."
Hearing my refusal, Professor Kim's eyes narrowed, he didn't expect such a tempting offer to be rejected.
"If you don't think about it anymore, it's impossible for ordinary people to want to go in."
Professor Kim obviously didn't give up easily, but I shook my head anyway.
"It's better that I'm not involved in this kind of thing,"
I smiled slightly, and Professor Jin sighed helplessly.
"Well, in that case, I won't force it."
As he spoke, Professor Kim picked up the bronze and looked at it again and again in his hand.
"It's really good, but I don't have much money in my pocket right now."
Suddenly, Professor Kim spoke.
I half-squinted my eyes, could it be that this guy wants to prostitute for nothing?
"Hahaha, Professor Jin laughed, I can keep it for the professor for the time being, and if I wait for Teacher Jin to have money in the future, it's not too late to buy it."
I was about to bring the bronzes, but Professor Kim took them down.
"I didn't say I wouldn't buy it, you have to let me observe it again and determine if this is the Shang Dynasty?"
Hearing his words, I was also a little speechless, isn't this obviously from the Shang Dynasty?
"Well, after a quick look, from some traces left on it, it can be judged that it is the Shang Dynasty."
After a while, Professor Jin nodded, called Manager Liang over, and whispered a few words in his ear.
"Professor Kim, can you tell the age by the remnants of this?"
After Manager Liang left, I approached Professor Jin with some curiosity and asked.
When Professor Jin heard my question, he immediately took on the appearance of a scholar.
"Saying that, give me any antique, and I can see where he came from."
Looking at Professor Kim's sworn appearance, I suddenly felt a little excited.
"Really?"
I said with some skepticism.
After all, the antique industry is too deep, and I'm afraid that I will be deceived.
When Professor Jin heard my questioning voice, he immediately became a little angry, "Hmph, little friend, you are doubting my ability." ”
Seeing Professor Kim's appearance, I could only smile bitterly.
"Naturally I don't dare, I have a favor I want to ask you to help, if you can help me with this bronze I will sell it to you for 10,000 yuan, and then give you an incense burner."
After listening to my words, Professor Jin pondered for a moment.
"What do you want me to do?"
"It's easy, you can help me see this thing."
As I spoke, I hurriedly took out the severed hand from the backpack, and now that Chen Wei is in a coma, I will bring this severed hand back.
The moment he saw me take out my severed hand, a hint of nervousness flashed across Professor Kim's face.
"Whose hand did you chop off?"
Professor Kim stared at me for a long time before suddenly asking me.
I was stunned for a moment, but then I thought it was funny, so I quickly explained.
"I didn't cut off this severed hand, but I got it by accident, and I heard that there is a very big secret hidden behind it."
Hearing me say this, Professor Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly took the severed hand over.
I took my reading glasses with me, took out a magnifying glass, and looked at the severed finger for a long time.
I watched from the sidelines, and although I didn't know if Professor Kim could see anything, I felt that I could.
