Siheyuan: a hole in the sky

Chapter 451 Intervention (Second update, please subscribe!)

After the gossip, Zhou Jianguo put the set of bronze figurines away, looked at the stall owner, and the stall owner also looked at Zhou Jianguo, both of them knew that the next 'battle' was about to begin.

Zhou Jianguo opened the mouth first and said: "Boss, this set of bronze figurines is really great. Just tell me what the lowest price is. As for the price of [-], don't mention it. We all know that this is not the reserve price. You offer a reserve price. If the price is right, I'd like to buy them."

The smiling face of the stall owner turned a little serious at this moment, but the smiles in his eyes couldn't be concealed. From Zhou Jianguo's words, he could tell that Zhou Jianguo really wanted to buy this set of bronze figures, so he said , I am going to open today.

As the saying goes, if you don't open for three years, you can't open for three years. This time, he will take a bite on Zhou Jianguo no matter what.

"Young man, you are really discerning. Let me tell you, my set of Arhat bronze figurines is not ordinary. It was made by an eminent monk in our Shaolin Temple [-] years ago. It not only contains a set of Arhat training secrets , Moreover, the eminent monk has consecrated it. This is a very rare treasure. You can not only use it to practice Arhat boxing, but you can also be trained by the eminent monk’s Dharma. Such a good treasure, young man , don't miss it!"

The stall owner did not negotiate the price, but first popularized the origin of these bronze figures to Zhou Jianguo.

have to!The current warriors who co-authored have also learned to be silly and tell stories from those people outside. No, this stall owner started telling stories, ready to fool himself!

"Eight hundred years ago, during the Song Dynasty, Shaolin Temple had already hidden the fine gold, so there was no threat of monsters at that time, that is to say, the outbreak of monsters was before that." Zhou Jianguo said secretly nod.

The threat of the World of Monster Beasts is imminent, Zhou Jianguo wants to investigate how the previous ancestors blocked the World of Monster Beasts, if they have the experience of resisting the World of Monster Beasts, Zhou Jianguo can save a lot of trouble.

Therefore, Zhou Jianguo has been investigating the corresponding matters in the library recently, but basically returned empty-handed.

One is that Zhou Jianguo didn't know when the monster crisis occurred at that time, and there was no specific time point. It was quite difficult for Zhou Jianguo to investigate it in the vast history of thousands of years.

In addition, the ancestors destroyed the experience of that period in too much detail, and Zhou Jianguo couldn't find much useful information.

Now that he has this information, Zhou Jianguo can narrow down the scope. Since Shaolin Temple hid the fine gold at that time, it is obvious that the monsters no longer existed at that time. Otherwise, Shaolin Temple would never have hidden the fine gold.

As for why Shaolin Temple hid the fine gold, Zhou Jianguo didn't know about it, and he didn't want to know. Anyway, the fine gold was his own now, and no one could take it away.

Zhou Jianguo just looked at the stall owner with a smile on his face, his face was completely like, you continue to talk, I will listen to you like an ancient tree, which immediately made the stall owner lose the interest to continue talking.

Even Zhou Jianguo, who was an audience member, showed such an expression. If he continued to speak, he would be asking for trouble.

Zhou Jianguo really wanted the stall owner to talk more about what happened at that time, but unfortunately, the stall owner was obviously not a good student. The things he knew were only written down for the needs of the story. Other things, He doesn't know much.

No, the stall owner will soon be unable to continue telling the story. Don't look at the stall owner who told the story very slickly just now, but in fact he was able to tell the story so slickly because he told a lot of stories. He has been familiar with it for a long time. In fact, he doesn't know much about other things, otherwise he wouldn't sell such a precious set of bronze figures in the warrior market. If he really knew eight hundred Years ago, he had already taken out the pure gold inside.

Among the nine bronze figures, there is a full one hundred and eighty catties of fine gold. Even if the stall owner has set up a stall for thousands of years, he will not be able to earn one percent of the value of this fine gold.

Seeing Zhou Jianguo's expression that the story sounds good, the stall owner was completely speechless.

Originally, seeing how young Zhou Jianguo was, he thought that he must be a little Mengxin who had just come out to see the world, so he had to teach this little Mengxin a good lesson and let him know the evil in the world.

However, after seeing Zhou Jianguo's sophisticated response, the stall owner knew that he had met his opponent.

Although the other party was very young, the stall owner felt that Zhou Jianguo was extremely difficult to deal with.

"Young man, seeing that the two of us get along well, I think this set of Luohan bronze figurines is worth 9000 yuan. What do you think? If you think the price is right, you can pay for it now and take it away. "

Hearing the offer from the stall owner, Zhou Jianguo almost burst out laughing.

Nine thousand yuan, this price can't even buy the skin of this set of Arhat bronze figurines, and the stall owner, with the look of cheap you, Zhou Jianguo almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

If the stall owner knew that his set of Arhat bronze figures was worth at least several billion, I believe he would be absolutely dumbfounded.

Boss, you picked up sesame seeds and lost a whole big gold nugget!

Boss, you definitely did a lot of bad things in your previous life, otherwise, how could such bad luck find you.

Even though he was so happy that he almost jumped up, Zhou Jianguo didn't immediately agree to the price, but started haggling with Yanzhu.

This is another point that needs attention in the antique industry. When you decide to buy, you must negotiate the price and make it clear what currency it is.

Every one of the stall owners who set up a stall in the antique market is a genius. Once they see you, they are eager to make a deal, unless it is something he knows is absolutely fake. The Lord will repent.

As for the excuse of repentance, it is very simple. The stall owner can say that the price unit we are talking about is rice gold, not red.

If you even agree to such a price, then the stall owner will not sell this antique to you, and he will find countless reasons to perfuse you.

For example, he will say that he just forgot that someone ordered this antique before, and he didn’t make up his mind just now, and he didn’t put it away. Then, a “guest” he called came back to the booth soon, and what happened after that I believe that I don't need to say more, everyone can guess it.

So, when buying and selling antiques in the antique market, you must be careful, careful, and careful.

The water in here is so deep you'll 100% drown if you're not careful
"Nine thousand yuan? No, this price is still expensive. The most precious thing about your set of Arhat bronze figures is the Arhat boxing above. Without this Arhat boxing, this pushing bronze figure is worth two hundred yuan." No. You have said before that Luohan Boxing is the most low-level foundation-building boxing method in your Shaolin Temple. Such a low-level foundation-building boxing method is only worth one or two thousand yuan in the market. Now you are asking for nine thousand yuan, boss. You earn too much!
Besides, I'm still not sure whether the Arhat Fist above is real or not. After buying it back, I still need to practice and test it. If it's true, I don't mind spending the money, but if it's fake, the boss will you Will you pay?"

"Compensation?! I'll accompany you!" The stall owner shouted from the bottom of his heart.

However, these words of Zhou Jianguo are indeed very reasonable, especially the above sentence 'In the cultivation world, the cultivation secret method of the same level is at most one or two thousand', which made the stall owner's face a little red. He understood that there was indeed a lot of moisture in his price, but when Zhou Jianguo exposed him directly, his face became a little ugly.

Ugly is ugly, business still needs to be done, so the stall owner asked directly: "Then tell me how much you can pay."

Zhou Jianguo thought for a while, and said: "Although Luohanquan is a low-level foundation-building boxing technique, it is quite famous in the cultivation circle, and it can be regarded as the top-level foundation-building boxing technique, so Luohanquan alone For the secret method, I can pay four thousand yuan."

"Then there are these nine Arhat bronze figurines. Although their maker is only an eminent monk in the Shaolin Temple and has no reputation at all, they have a history of more than [-] years, and the technique of the eminent monk who made them is really exquisite. , In this way, I can add another thousand yuan, a total of five thousand yuan!"

"Five thousand?" The stall owner frowned, not wanting to agree in his heart.

There is no way, the price Zhou Jianguo said was too accurate, and he was very uncomfortable. If he really wanted to sell it for [-] yuan, then why did he have to spend so much effort to get these several hundred catties of bronze figures from Shaolin Temple, They traveled all the way to Huajing.

Not to mention other things, just transporting him down from Shaoshi Mountain almost exhausted him, and then he had to be brought on the train and brought here. Selling it for [-] yuan is better than sending it directly to the home of some lay disciples in Shaolin Temple. You can still get this price, no, it is even higher.

I spent so much effort to bring these nine Arhat bronze figures from Shaolin Temple here to sell, don't I just want to sell them for a little more money, if the price is so low, who would be willing to sell them.

Compared with the stall owners in the antique market outside, the stall owners in the martial arts market are still much worse in terms of price negotiation. If it is replaced by the stall owners outside, when the first quotation is made, it will not be [-] or [-] And so on, for such a precious and rare practice secret method, he would at least offer [-] to [-] yuan.

Later, when Zhou Jianguo looked for excuses to bargain, he would also find many reasons to raise the price.

For example, take consecration as an example.

An antique, if it is unlocked by an eminent monk, it is no longer an antique, but a magic weapon.

An antique is the price of an antique, and a magic weapon is the price of a magic weapon. Moreover, the price of a magic weapon is many times higher than that of an antique.

At this time, the stall owner would use the reason that these bronze figurines are magical artifacts to greatly increase the price, and Zhou Jianguo, who knew the details of these bronze figurines, finally had to stick his head out and slash the stall owner severely.

Therefore, the stall owner in the martial artist trading market is far worse than the stall owners in the antique market outside. How can he know the huge difference between consecration and non-consecration? If he knew, the price of these bronze figurines, At least one more zero had to be added, and Zhou Jianguo had no choice but to agree to it because of the pure gold inside.

It can be seen that there is nothing wrong with saying that professional things should be left to professional people.

The stall owner looks like a professional, but in fact he is not professional, resulting in a big loss of a lot of money.

"I will never sell it for five thousand yuan. In this way, for eight thousand yuan, if I give another one thousand yuan, eight thousand yuan, you can take these bronze Arhats."

The stall owner said firmly, and offered a new price.

Zhou Jianguo felt amused in his heart. In fact, he could agree to [-] yuan, but since he came to pick up the leak, of course, the lower the price, the better, so he started bargaining again.

"How about [-] U.S. dollars? To be honest, this price has already exceeded the actual price of these Arhat bronze figurines. It is really a good deal at this price!"

A gleam of joy flashed in the eyes of the stall owner. Zhou Jianguo took the initiative to raise the price. It was still [-] yuan to make his expectations higher. Therefore, he basically didn't think much about it, and just shook his head and refused.

"Six thousand yuan is not enough. This price is too low. I brought these nine bronze figures weighing several hundred catties here from Shaolin Temple all the way. If they only sell for six thousand yuan, it is really too low. In this way, I'll also lower some prices, how about 7800 yuan, this is my bottom line, if it works, you can pay to take away these Luohan bronze figures, if not, forget it!"

The owner of the stall gave the ultimatum. Judging by his current expression, it seemed to be true, but Zhou Jianguo didn't believe the nonsense that the stall owner said that this was the last price bottom line in his heart.

In the antique market, as long as they come out to set up street stalls, how can they have any bottom line for the lowest price? This is all to fool people. For them, as long as they can make money, they can't say anything, and they can't break through the bottom line.

"6500 yuan, this is my final offer. If it doesn't work, then I can only express my regret. I will buy Arhat Boxing directly from other Shaolin lay disciples. Maybe three or four thousand at most will be enough." For 6500 yuan, I can not only buy the secret method of Luohanquan practice, but also a considerable amount of secret medicine.

Boss, don’t treat me like a sheep just because I’m young. The reason why I just offered the price of 6500 yuan is because I like this set of Arhat bronze figurines. Its workmanship is quite good, and I put it in the study Inside, it can be regarded as a landscape. How can I say that these Arhat bronze figures have a history of [-] years, which is rare! "

After saying these "sincere" words, Zhou Jianguo stood up with a regretful expression on his face. He just looked at the stall owner like this, and waited for him to make a final decision. If he disagreed, he seemed really ready to leave. people.

At this time, the expression on the stall owner's face was changing rapidly, and his brows were furrowed from time to time. It was obvious that he was sitting and weighing in his heart.

"This kid is really difficult to deal with. It seems that threatening him with the Arhat Fist mental method is impossible. He really wants to spend [-] yuan to buy the cultivation secret method of Arhat Fist. Hehe, it will take less than a day. Someone is at the door.

Grass (a kind of plant), there should be regulations in the temple. After the lay disciples leave the temple, they can’t teach Shaolin Kung Fu indiscriminately.

Hey, now it seems that it's okay not to agree to this kid. "

Thinking of this, the stall owner finally made a decision and agreed to Zhou Jianguo's price.

However, I don't know if God didn't want Zhou Jianguo to get these fine gold so easily, or because of Zhou Jianguo's good luck, he offended too many seniors, so an unexpected situation happened.

Just as the stall owner showed a smiling face and was about to shake hands with Zhou Jianguo to close the deal, someone beside him suddenly came up and interjected.

"Boss, how much is your set of Arhat bronze figurines?"

Hearing these words, both Zhou Jianguo and the stall owner turned their heads to look in surprise.

This is a young man in his early twenties. From his clothes and the long sword beside him, Zhou Jianguo is sure that this man should be from Tiejianmen.

The members of the Iron Sword Sect are easy to identify. There is an iron sword printed on their clothes, and they also carry the unique iron sword of the Iron Sword Sect.

The identity of this young man should be very unusual in Tiejianmen, not only because of the clothes on his body and the long sword beside him, but also because he is accompanied by six younger brothers. The pull was as big as two to five to eighty thousand, and one could tell at a glance that the identities of these people must be unusual in Tiejianmen, otherwise, how could they be pulled like this.

At this time, the leading young man's eyes lit up, pointing at this set of Arhat bronze figurines, completely ignoring the existence of Zhou Jianguo, and directly inquiring about the price from the stall owner.

His behavior obviously does not conform to the trading rules in the antique business. In the antique business, there is such an unspoken rule. If someone is trading, no matter how much you like this antique, you can't intervene unless the last person doesn't want it. Only then can you intervene.

Therefore, when this young man intervened, Zhou Jianguo couldn't help but frown directly, even the stall owner and Zhou Ai's other stall owners also frowned.

"My friend, I'm really sorry. I saw this set of Luohan bronze figurines first, and we have already negotiated the price here. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to ask the price at this time?"

Zhou Jianguo said very directly, he didn't save this young man any face.

As long as everyone understands the rules of this kind of transaction, it is impossible for the young man from the Tiejianmen not to be ignorant. However, he still came up to ask for the price. Therefore, Zhou Jianguo guessed that the young man from the Tiejiamen did it on purpose.

It's like you go on a blind date. The blind date on your side is almost done, and the woman is very satisfied with you. The two parties will soon enter the next stage. Show affection to the woman.
Obviously, this Cheng Yaojin was deliberately trying to make trouble.

Hearing what Zhou Jianguo said, the rest of the people around him nodded in agreement, and at the same time gave the young man from Tiejianmen a look of contempt. unpopular.

"Yuan Jie, forget it, everyone is watching, don't lose face of Tie Jianmen." There was a young man who recognized this Ge Tie Jianmen at the scene. His name was Yuan Jie. The status in Jianmen is not low.

"Cracking!" Yuan Jie looked around indifferently, then looked at Zhou Jianguo, and said provocatively: "I know the rules here, but haven't you two still made a deal? I haven't given it yet, so I am asking the price now, which is not considered a violation of the rules here, and I really like this set of Arhat bronze figures, and I really want to buy it. Why, can't you? Or, have you already bought it? Download it? Hmph!"

Yuan Jie looked at Zhou Jianguo smugly, and uttered a series of excuses in his mouth. After hearing this, any fool would know that he was making excuses without any convincing power at all.

Zhou Jianguo narrowed his eyes slightly, which was a sign of anger.

Originally, the fine gold was about to be obtained, but Yuan Jie from the Iron Sword Sect came out to intervene, which caused an unexpected situation in this matter. For the first time, Zhou Jianguo felt in his heart that he hated this person so much.

"Master, I'll kill this Yuan Jie!" Zhang Ming's voice came from next to his ear.

Zhang Ming is now secretly following Zhou Jianguo. Once Zhou Jianguo needs help carrying antiques, Zhang Ming will show up.

"No, I want to see why this Yuan Jie came to me." Zhou Jianguo said lightly.

"Besides, aren't we short of manpower? No, manpower seems to come to our door automatically."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Jianguo's mouth. He knew very well what kind of surname a second generation like Yuan Jie was.

Once their faces are trampled under their feet, they will definitely go crazy, and then call a large number of people to find something to settle accounts, and this is Zhou Jianguo's opportunity.

People like Yuan Jie can know what kind of people they are usually just by looking at their current behavior. It can be said that it is easy for these people to be thrown directly into prison. Harmful.

(Gentlemen: You are looking for an excuse, you are short of manpower, that's why you want to anger people like Yuan Jie, and say that you want to eliminate harm for the people, this is a very bad excuse.

Zhou Jianguo: What about my Gatling Bodhisattva, there are people here who want to go to the Western Paradise to meet the Buddha.

Big old men: You can't afford it! ! )
"Young master is wise!" When Zhang Ming in the dark looked at Yuan Jie and the others, his eyes became extremely hot.

"Huh..." Yuan Jie and the others trembled all over, feeling chills in their hearts, as if they were being targeted by something.

Yuan Jie looked around and found nothing unusual. Although he still felt strange in his heart, he didn't care much about the chill just now when he thought that he was the son of the head of the Tie family.

He is the young master of Iron Sword Sect, who dares to provoke him!
