Chapter 257

Confucius said: How to repay grievances with virtue.

Liu Huangshu also said: Don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil because they are small.

Li Ding'an felt that these two sentences were so correct.Just like now: the grievances have been repaid, good deeds have been done, and some benefits can be obtained conveniently, why not?
He didn't move: "Boss, show me your bowl again."

Anyone else want to see it?
The seller glared: Well... where are the people?
There was nothing in front of him. When he turned his head, the speaker was sitting next door.

You sit on someone else's stall, but your hands are stretched out so long... Is there anyone who can see things like this?

The clothes are loose and loose around the hips: a wide T-shirt, very fat jeans, a hat upside down on the head, and a pair of small sunglasses hanging on the bridge of the nose... Where did this second-rate guy come from?

The seller's mood at this time...well, I can only describe it in one word.Looking at Li Ding'an's attitude, being so young, and dressing like this... Anyway, the more I look at him, the more unpleasant he becomes.

He tilted his head and raised his eyes at a 45-degree angle. Although he didn't say a word, anyone with long eyes knew what he meant: Can you afford it?

ha?
Because of this attitude, I have to "help" you today.

Probably because he was so angry that he forgot about it, Li Ding'an didn't bother to mention that he had been here before, but he just turned his hat upside down, so he couldn't recognize it.

"Whether you want to sell it or not, you set the price!"

really buy?

The seller perked up, and as soon as he rolled his eyes, Li Ding'an smiled again: "Don't just talk nonsense, I heard it clearly when the expert was here!"

deceive me?

They just said "Eh", then "Oh", and then said nothing. Do you know what a hammer is?

To sell or not to sell?

There was no need to think about it. The seller raised his arm and almost stretched out his five fingers. He took back another one: "40!"

Yes, the price is falling gradually...

"It's high, half at most. If you don't sell it, I'll leave..."

Li Ding'an took out his mobile phone and said, "At least I am more kind than that expert's son: he only gives you half and half..."

"He's asking for a high price, but he's going to pay back the money on the spot. Let alone one hundred thousand. Even if he pays back ten yuan, he still wants to see if I sell it?"

Sneering, the seller gritted his teeth again: "Minimum 30!"

30, equal to half of the actual price?
He probably reached his psychological bottom line, and he was still so shocked by the performance performed by Professor Zhou and his son that he couldn't turn around for a while.

Looking at his expression, maybe the cost price is just this much. Even if it drops further, it will only be 3 to [-] yuan, which is of little significance. On the contrary, it will lead to long nights and many dreams.

Li Ding'an glanced at the young man who was getting closer and closer, and clicked on his phone: "Here, scan the code!"

Oh, it's so simple, don't you see?

If it were someone older, he might hesitate: Could it be a stolen treasure?

But with Li Ding'an's appearance and attire, the seller subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief: he was lucky, and the mallet came, so he didn't hit his hand.

Therefore, being young also has its advantages. Otherwise, how could the group put the youngest guy at the back?

Both of them were very fast. They scanned the code, packed the bowls, and the boxes were in Li Ding'an's hands. The young man was still two stalls away.

Li Ding'an stood up and smiled again: "Goodbye!"

Although the items were sold without compensation, the profit was still 30 yuan less. The seller was still not in a good mood. He waved his hand like a fly, meaning that you should run away.

With this kind of mind, what's wrong with playing with antiques?

When I cried, I was still behind...

Li Ding'an shook his head and left with the box in his arms. The seller also stood up. He was originally going to go home, but he always felt unhappy.

No, I have to earn back the 30!

He looked around, then walked around the exchange area with the maza in hand...

……

"What about people?"

The young man looked at the empty stall and was dumbfounded.

Two minutes ago, when he arrived at stall No. 2, he was still there, the people were there, and the bowls were there too.

He just asked about the price and pretended to say a few words, but it disappeared?
The uncle setting up a stall next to him raised his eyes and glanced at him: "Who is he?"

"Is this where you just sell things?"

"Oh, let's go!"

"Why did you just leave...where did you go?"

"We met by chance. I don't even know his name. How can I know where he went? Besides, all the things are sold. Why don't you just stay here to bask in the sun?"

No... just sold it in just one or two minutes?

The young man raised his head and thought hard, thought hard: After Professor Zhou and his father left, it seems that there was no one sitting on this stall again?
Little did he know that Li Ding'an deliberately guarded against them, so he didn't sit here, took off his glasses, and put his hat on backwards...

"Who did he sell that bowl to?"

The uncle instinctively thought of Li Ding'an: he is quite young and handsome. He smiles when he meets people and is very polite when he talks. You can tell he is well-educated at first glance.

The move was very straightforward, and he was quite rich. He paid 30 yuan as soon as he asked.Although the dress is a bit unconventional, he is definitely not a second-rate person.

"A kid, looks like he's dressed as a hip-hop dancer?"

What the hell?
You dance hip-hop and have children, but you come here to buy hundreds of thousands of antiques... you can't even hit the eight-hundred-dollar pole?
"How much did he spend?"

"30 million!"

I rely on?

In an instant, the young man's face turned dark and he turned away.

The uncle was stunned, then shook his head: This young man is quite neatly dressed, but he asks so many questions and doesn’t even say thank you?
so far...

……

The young man walked around the corner angrily, and as soon as he showed his head, five or six people surrounded him.But then he was stunned: Why do you have two empty hands?
"Where's the bowl?"

"Wan Ge Mao... By the time I get there, someone has already bought it... How much do you think he spent?"

The young man raised three fingers and said, "30!"

Damn it... several people were stunned!

Yesterday they studied it repeatedly: If nothing goes wrong, they should be able to get the bowl for 30 yuan, and then through Professor Zhou, they can easily sell it for 60 yuan.

The plan was implemented very smoothly, and it basically did not deviate from the preset track. In the end, it did sell for 30 yuan.

But the question is, did someone else buy it?
If not for everyone being here and not losing sight of each other, they would have thought there was a traitor.

But think about it again: from the time Professor Zhou and his son left to the time when the young man arrived at the stall, there was only about 3 minutes in between, and they were both nearby, so no one at the stall asked him.

"How did you buy it?"

"It was said that the man was looking at something at the stall next door. After Professor Zhou left, he didn't move. He directly asked the price. The seller quoted 30, and then the deal was completed."

"Damn it, it was intercepted... How could it be such a coincidence that it happened to be 30? When Professor Zhou and Director Zhou were standing there talking to the seller, he probably heard it and figured out something."

"Professor Zhou just said a few words, how did he think about it?"

"There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. There are many experts in this industry." "Who is the buyer?"

"A kid, or a hip-hop dancer?"

The men and women looked at each other: What is this?
Aren't you talking about being an expert? Why did you become a child?

"What should we do now?"

"Langzai, otherwise you can still catch up and get the things back?"

The elder one sighed sadly: "There is no need to chase after this one thing. If there is no light in the east, there will be light in the west. If this one is gone, there will be another one..."

It is!

Several others nodded in unison.

"There are two items that are due today. Once they are removed from the stall, they will have to look for them again tomorrow... Hurry!"

"Yep……"

"What about the two of you?"

"Still shopping!"

"Send message: Next item!"

After a few shouts, everyone split up.

This time it’s the Ge-glazed blue and white statue at stall 41.

This thing started in the Shang Dynasty. It is actually a smaller tripod, but it is made of pottery.Most of the time it is used to hold wine, and occasionally it is used for sacrifices. It is one of the more common pottery items in tombs.

After the Song Dynasty, they basically lost their practical functions and became pure decorations, with various names.Some are named after patterns, such as Guanyin Zun and Mudan Zun, and some are named after shapes, such as Fish Basket Zun and Carrot Zun.However, the shapes of the utensils are still mainly "bottle" and "can", but they are larger.

This one is, it is correct to say that it is a large blue and white vase, but it is cut into pieces after imitating the characteristics of Ge Kiln, and the glaze is "fragmented", so it is called Ge Glaze Blue and White Zun.

Before the woman came, Li Ding'an had already gotten his hands on it: something from the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty. The pattern was the Five Blessings picture that was more common in the Ming Dynasty, and the style was also a common chant in folk kilns in the Ming Dynasty: "Always protect Changchun."

So this is an object from a folk kiln in the late Ming Dynasty. The workmanship is good and the preservation is quite good. The surface does not have the "glaze chipping" phenomenon that is most likely to occur with open-piece porcelain. It is also a large piece, and the estimate of 160 million is not high.

The seller is relatively honest, and may be in a hurry for money, so he priced the property at 220 million yuan.The price is also not high. If Li Ding'an were to estimate it: around 200 million.

After taking a general look, I was planning to look at the next thing. When I saw those few coming around the corner, as if they were coming this way, Li Ding'an didn't go far.

This time it was replaced by the woman, it was still the same script, still the same routine.

"Brother, there's something wrong with you!"

"What's wrong?"

“I did it after the film started!”

"It's impossible...this was appraised by experts from the Cultural Expo..."

“What experts say may not always be right!”

"Then tell me, how did you do it?"

Professor Zhou did teach him, but if a woman doesn’t remember everything, she naturally can’t tell.

But she didn't panic at all: "Believe it or not, that's what I said!"

After the words fell, the person stood up and turned to the next stall with a thump.

The eldest brother was a little confused. He looked at the woman's back and then at the objects in front of him: he looked quite knowledgeable, but why were his words so unpleasant?

As soon as he saw this expression, Li Ding'an understood: This person is more amateur than the one who sold bowls before. You are suspicious of the first one. How can you resist the others after him?

Of course, it is also possible that it was influenced by the rumors: even the expert was arrested, and there was something wrong with the things he identified, which is normal...

Just as I was wondering, the second person also came. This time he was an older man, probably in his early fifties.

Likewise, his approach was very professional, and his style and posture were no worse than those of the experts at the venue.

After watching it for seven or eight minutes, he first shook his head and then sighed: "It's been frozen, and it's been fried."

He just said five words, then got up and left without even looking back.

The eldest brother was anxious and reached out to grab his sleeves, but he had already walked five or six steps away.

Li Ding'an saw it with tingling teeth: This group of people had obviously visited the sellers in advance and had done more in-depth research. They had chosen sellers that were relatively easy to deceive, and they knew a little bit about the personalities of these sellers.

If you are reckless, use provocation, like the bowl seller just now.If you are honest, be direct: concise and to the point, just like the person in front of you, who is so anxious that the corners of his eyes begin to tremble.

At first glance, the cracks on the glaze of this object are indeed a bit yellow, and there is an "oil halo" in the yellow, which is a bit like signs of being put in a frying pan when it was aged. However, it is well preserved and formed naturally. The secretion color is too light.

Li Ding'an can guarantee that if you find any piece of open-piece porcelain, you don't need to do it tomorrow night, just early in the morning. The color of the cracks will be either gray or black.

This group of people is quite good. They clearly have advantages, but are they calling them disadvantages?
Otherwise, how can we say that hooligans are not scary? The most fearful thing is that hooligans are educated?No matter what the original intention is, the experts who set up such traps should be pulled out and shot...

Sighing, he walked over directly: "Uncle, I'm here again..."

Well, that kid in those flashy clothes before?

He asked about the price, looked at the things and then left. The uncle just thought he was here to play.

But this time it's much more pleasing to the eye: the hat is on the right way, and the toad glasses are gone...

"Oh, you said..."

"Give me a base price!" Li Ding'an pointed at the blue and white statue, "If it suits me, I'll take it."

"This...this is something worth millions?"

Li Ding'an was speechless.

The uncle didn't look askance at him, he was simply surprised. From this, it can be seen that the expression on the bowl seller's face just now was not all about looking down on him.

It’s just that my face is too tender...

Li Ding'an patted the bottle: "Don't worry!"

"If you really want it..." The uncle thought for a moment, "One hundred and eighty...oh no, 160 million?"

Li Ding'an sighed again: At first thought, it's incredible. After being bluffed by someone, you directly lowered it to the estimated value?
But if you think about it carefully: the key is that this group of people are too professional, and they are doing one move after another. Even if they are doing this in succession, no matter how good the mentality is, people will panic, not to mention that this person is not very expert at first glance.

No need to guess, when Professor Zhou comes, he can lower it by half.

But it’s not necessary. A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. There is no need to catch honest people.

"Okay, collect the money!"

Seeing him take out his mobile phone, the uncle was confused: This is 160 million, not [-]?

Hearing the sound of "ding dong", he woke up as if from a dream and lowered his head...really paid 160 million?

The uncle was a little anxious: "No... young man, you just buy such expensive things. Have you asked your family?"

Look, just call him an honest man!
"Don't worry, I'm in charge of our family!"

Li Ding'an smiled, put the porcelain statue into the wooden box, and stuffed it with sponge and inflatable foam.

"See you!"

The uncle looked dull and waved his hand mechanically.

Not far away, the young man, the woman, and the one who had previously scolded Li Ding'an not to cause trouble, all looked confused: Got intercepted again?
