treasure hunt god pupil

Chapter 247
The middle-aged man couldn't help looking back at the young man who was still playing games, and walked over to ask loudly, "Has anyone bought calligraphy and painting today?"

"Yes, I just left for a few minutes. I bought four paintings in total and made hundreds of dollars."

The young man didn't even look up.

The middle-aged man slapped the counter suddenly, almost kindly: "Is there a picture of words wrapped in plastic film?"

"Didn't look closely."

The young man is still playing mobile games with his head down.

"Bastard." The middle-aged man rushed inside and snatched his mobile phone, then slapped him hard on the face and shouted, "What does that man look like, tell me quickly."

The young man was stunned by the slap and said, "I didn't see it."

"What the hell have I done?"

The middle-aged man slapped himself hard again, and then rushed out of the shop, hoping to find the customer with the four paintings.

Li Mo put the wrapped painting in the creaking nest, and then handed over the other three paintings to Uncle Ah Qing to throw them into the trash can.

"Little Mo, this one costs hundreds of dollars, why would you buy it if you don't want it?"

"These three pieces are all printed by machines, and the cost of each calligraphy and painting is more than ten yuan."

"Ah, the cost is only a dozen yuan, and it sold for 170, ten times the profit. The boss is too cruel." Uncle Ah Qing muttered a few words, he was not willing to throw it away, and planned to take it home and hang it on the big white wall of the hotel as an ornament.

"Uncle Ah Qing, is there a shop here that sells porcelain?"

"There is really one in front, but the owner there has a nickname called Hang Dead Man. He not only cheats tourists from other places, but also cheats locals when they take the opportunity. It is said that there are real antiques in his store, but I have never seen anything like it. Sample."

Li Mo suddenly became interested. He is not afraid of being tricked, but he is afraid that there is no real thing.

"Let's go and see."

The two walked forward for more than 100 meters and saw a porcelain shop with an area of ​​more than 100 square meters.Such an area is not small. From the outside, through the floor-to-ceiling glass, you can see that the inside is full of various porcelains. Some porcelains are more than one meter high, and some porcelains are only the size of teacups placed on ancient shelves.

Li Mo walked into the shop, and there was only a woman in her 50s. She was dressed in keeping with the times, with heavy makeup on her face and long curly hair.At this time, she was writing something, pressing the calculator to make a crisp sound from time to time.

"Uncle Ah Qing, there are so many porcelains here. Look at the colorful porcelains, they are so beautiful. They must look good as decorations at home."

Li Mo pointed to several types of pastel-glazed porcelain, and he still stepped forward to stroke them lightly with his hands. Unfortunately, they were all modern handicrafts, and the production was a bit rough.

This is the boss looking up at him. The accent is from a foreign country.She quickly came out of the counter and said enthusiastically: "Young man, you have a good eye. These are all high-quality porcelain from JDZ, and they are all made by famous masters."

"Boss, he is a relative of mine, and he came here to play. It's not convenient to carry such a big thing back and forth, so I just look around."

Ah Qing spoke in a straightforward manner, and the boss turned his head to look at him and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if it's from other places, as long as you like any porcelain, I can help you ship it there for free."

She acted as if she didn't understand the meaning of Ah Qing's words.

Li Mo just smiled. He walked around the store, and they were all modern handicrafts.

"Young man, I have so many good things here, don't you like any of them?"

"I have dozens of porcelain decorations in my house, all of which are more exquisite and beautiful than yours in appearance. Boss, to tell you the truth, your porcelain craftsmanship is relatively rough, which is not what I want. If There are better ones in your store, why don't you show them to me?"

The boss looked Li Mo up and down a few times, and said in a slightly rude tone: "Of course there are good things, but those are real antiques, and each one is worth a lot of money. It's not impossible if you want to see it, but you have to let me know Can you afford it? Otherwise, if I take it out, you won’t be able to afford it, and if I accidentally touch it again, I’ll ask someone to pay for it.”

Li Mo wanted to see what genuine porcelain she ordered for collection, and was about to take out the black gold card from his wallet.

"Boss, do you collect porcelain here?"

At this time, there was a young man in his 20s standing at the door of the store, with dark skin and a tall, thin build.In both hands he carried four packed boxes, probably filled with china.

The boss glanced at Li Mo: "Why don't you take a look and call me if you need anything." After she finished speaking, she walked towards the cabinet and waved to the young man, "Come here, let me see what kind of porcelain it is."

The young man put the box on the counter and took out one china in turn.Li Mo didn't pay attention at first, but his eyes lit up when the fourth piece was taken out.

The boss didn't know whether she really understood or pretended to understand. She just looked at the bottle casually and asked, "I'm in a serious business, so I want to ask you, where did these four porcelains come from?"

"Boss, don't worry, I found these four in the old house. I feel that they are not simple, so I would like to ask how much money you can pay for them?"

The boss did not answer directly, but pointed to the porcelain in the store and said: "Look at the porcelain in my store, any few pieces you choose are more beautiful than your four pieces. If you want to sell, I will bid 300 yuan for each piece." Yuan."

"Only 300 yuan? Boss, if you take a closer look, it has been found in my old house for at least several decades. Maybe it is still an antique."

The boss was also straightforward. She took the calculator and pressed it several times and said: "Add another three hundred, and the four pieces will total [-]. If you agree to sell them, I will pay in cash. If you don't agree, you can take them to the county seat to buy them again." Find someone to ask."

Seeing her indifferent expression, the young man thought for a while and said, "Forget it, fifteen thousand is fifteen thousand."

"Okay then, I'll give you some money."

A few minutes later, the young man counted the money and walked out of the shop. Li Mo then picked up a vase in his hand and went to the counter and said, "Boss, I went around. This vase is not bad. How much is it?"

The boss smiled again and said: "This is called a weeping willow vase. The Guanyin Bodhisattva in Journey to the West is holding the same style. Young man, it was hard for you to pick out one you like. I don't want more. You give it to three vases." 500 yuan will do.”

The boss really dared to ask for a price. In Guyunxuan, the asking price for such porcelain was only 800 yuan, and the glaze on the surface was several times better than this one.

Uncle Ah Qing immediately stood up. He frowned and said in a low voice, "Boss, he is my relative. If you make such a price, we will leave immediately."

Li Mo also nodded and said: "Boss, my uncle is right, 500 yuan can completely buy all these four porcelains."

"Hehe, young man, if you also like these four porcelains, how about you can buy them together for an extra thousand and five? I don't earn money from you, and I earn a fair share. I really want to make you a friend." , I really didn’t make much money, just supporting my family.”

"Little Mo, don't listen to her fooling around." Uncle Ah Qing whispered hurriedly.

"Uncle Ah Qing, look at the shape and color of these four porcelains. They are really good. On average, one thousand each is not bad." Li Mo looked at the four porcelains carefully, "Boss, let's make it five hundred cheaper." , I will take all five of these away."

"Deal, I will issue you a receipt."

Seeing that Uncle Ah Qing was about to stop him again, the boss quickly agreed with a smile.

Uncle Ah Qing only sighed softly, thinking that he is still rich and self-willed. He spent more than 5000 yuan in less than an hour to visit the ancient city of Dangshan. .

Ten minutes later, Li Mo walked out of the shop carrying one of the porcelain wares. Uncle Ah Qing helped him carry the remaining four, and complained as he walked, "Xiao Mo, you can't spend it like this even if you have money. I reminded you that boss The nickname cheats people, she made at least 10 net profits from this order."

"If you see something you like, buy it. It doesn't matter if they make some money. After all, what's the point of doing business if you don't make money. Uncle Ah Qing, is there anything interesting or delicious here?"

"It's just an old town. Outsiders only come here for fun. We locals usually don't bother to come here. There really is a restaurant that makes stewed vegetables, and the taste is not bad."

"Okay, let's go buy a few things to eat at night. It's going to be dark this day, so we'll go back after we buy the braised vegetables."

The harvest of this trip was really beyond Li Mo's expectation. He wondered if he would go to the county again tomorrow. Even though this place is not prosperous enough, the folks may really hide some good things.
