Chapter 127 Isn’t that what we do?
The shopkeeper's attitude changed so much that he almost missed Lin Yi and Wang Qiang.

However, this also reflects from the side that this guy is really discerning.

"The two of you, please!"

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and let them sit on the Arhat bed in the inner hall, and he himself served tea and water.

"I'm sorry for my blindness, but I can't see Mount Tai. If you two can appreciate it, my little shop will shine brightly. Drink tea, drink tea!"

Wang Qiang looked at Lin Yi confused.

Lin Yi took the tea bowl calmly and took a sip.

"Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Qian and my name is Sheng. I have been in this business since my great-grandfather's generation.

I have been interested in this since I was a child. Later, I got admitted to Western University and studied cultural relic appraisal. I inherited my father's career, so I continued to work in this field.

When I was in school, I looked at a lot of things from the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties. When you two brought these things with you, I could tell at a glance that they were things with big doors. They were unmistakable.

Since you want to take action, let’s make a price! "

Qian Sheng stood aside very respectfully, rubbing his hands back and forth, his previous high-spirited look had long since disappeared.

"No busy shopkeeper Qian! We also have to introduce ourselves. My name is Lin Yi, Shuang Mu Lin, Elegant Yi, this is my good brother, Wang Qiang, we are intermediaries."

Upon hearing the two of them introduce themselves, Qian Sheng's mouth was so long that he could fit an egg into it.

"Hey! Forgive me, are you two the ones who led the archaeological team to the desert to find the ancient city in the desert a few days ago? Are you Lin Yi, Consultant Lin, Wang Qiang, and Master Wang?"

Hearing this, Wang Qiang was delighted.

"Hey, I didn't expect us to be quite famous."

Qian Sheng slapped his hands.

"Hey, it's not just famous, it's a big name! Mainly, I've never played social media very much, I don't remember your looks, I only heard of your names.

If I had known it was you two, what kind of spectacle did I make, really!Okay, don't say anything, I want all these three things, you just ask the price and I will never counter-offer, let's Nan Lai Shun, I will be the host, how about we sit together? "

Lin Yi felt that something was wrong, after all, he had just met him not long ago, and when he was about to refuse, Wang Qiang opened his mouth and immediately agreed.

"That's great. Shopkeeper Qian is so cheerful, so we brothers should be respectful rather than obey orders."

"Okay! Mr. Wang is quick to talk, so let's make a price!"

Lin Yi sighed softly and said: "I'll agree on a price. If shopkeeper Qian thinks it's suitable, he can take it. If it's not suitable, let's discuss it again. Both of us are laymen in the art of antiques."

When Qian Sheng heard this, he immediately replied with a smile:

"Master Lin, you are too humble. I, Qian Sheng, really want to make friends with you two. There is nothing more than admiration from the bottom of my heart for people who are capable, courageous and loyal.

Therefore, I will not hide some words.

These three items are definitely not the ones in the market. As for the origin, if you don’t tell me, I won’t ask.

According to the market price, two thousand five thousand a jar is already a friendly price, and there can be no more.

However, this thing is not only a container, but also a sacrificial vessel. Two are short and one is tall. A set of three is exactly the same. The price can be doubled directly. I won’t bother you. I will give you this amount for these three jars!How about it? "

As he spoke, Qian Sheng gestured with three fingers.

"Thirty thousand?" Wang Qiang called out in disbelief.

According to his knowledge, they took the three jars for 1 yuan, and the bid was higher than [-] yuan, so it was considered a copy.

This money shopkeeper is [-] per mouth.

"Old Lin, this business is good, we can do it!" Wang Qiang whispered from the side.

Lin Yi was speechless.

Qian Sheng's vision was really poisonous, he could tell the origin of this thing at a glance, and he didn't hide the value of this thing in the slightest.

The price offered was not only not low, but even a bit high.

The quality of these three jars was indeed not very good, with obvious cracks and bumps. Lin Yi's psychological price was [-] yuan, and he gave [-] yuan more.

Seeing that Lin Yi was silent for a long time, Qian Sheng said again:

"If the two of you think this price is inappropriate, I have a solution. You two will keep the 3 yuan first. As for this thing, I will temporarily store it on consignment. I will not take a cent of the final transaction price. , and hand it back to the two of you, do you think this method will work?"

When Lin Yi heard this, Qian Sheng showed enough sincerity.

There is indeed a saying of "consignment" in antique shops.

However, it has to be a trustworthy person among regular customers, or among colleagues.

Moreover, in consignment, there is no precedent for giving money to the owner first, and there will be no practice of returning the money in full after the goods are sold.

As a middleman, if you work hard, you lose money, but you don’t earn a penny?No agency fee?
What is this business?

It's purely for charity!
"This is not suitable for Shopkeeper Qian. There is no business like this."

"Don't tell me, I, Qian Sheng, really want to make two friends, so let's do it this way. You two will refill the water later, son six."

After finishing speaking, Qian Sheng got up and went to the inner hall.

The waiter brought a kettle over and filled Lin Yi and the others with water.

"Old Lin, what's the matter with you? You don't even want the money you got? We took [-], sold it for [-], and made a net profit of [-]. You don't earn this money? What do you want to earn?"

Lin Yi picked up the gaiwan, took a sip, and said in a low voice:

"I have nothing against money, why not?

I don’t want to owe the shopkeeper Qian a favor, and we’ve never met before, but we feel like old friends at first sight?This thing is worth some money, but it's not worth so much, and there are consignment rules, so how can anyone give money first? "

"Whatever, let's talk about the money once you get it. I think the shopkeeper Qian is very sincere. He will give you 3 yuan if you say it, and it's not ambiguous at all."

"To be able to work in the antique shop for four generations and still be able to establish a foothold in Panjiayuan is not something ordinary people can do! Business is unprofitable and can't be done early. I have to know that he wants to get something from us. What."

"Hey, aren't you talking? You admire our abilities and want to make friends with us. Don't forget, we still have a few things in the house waiting to be sold. How about we get along with him first? Let's see Let's see if this person is reliable.

No matter how bad it is, we have to eat this Nan Lai Shun before leaving. "

"I guess he saw this thing you were wearing and thought we were the ones."

Lin Yi put down the tea bowl in his hand, and pointed at Wang Qiang's neck helplessly.

"Which? This?"

Wang Qiang took out the gold-touching charm, looked down at it for a few times, and then stuffed it back.

"Isn't that what we do!"

"What are we doing? Remember, our identity is a cemetery intermediary, mainly to show customers the yin house, and pick up some 'soil' specialties."

"Isn't that still the same thing? Do you think this shopkeeper Qian is so easy to fool?"

Lin Yi thought about it and realized that what he said made sense.

Qian Sheng's eyesight is indeed very good. He can tell the quality of the gold talisman at a glance, and he can also see the true value of the jar.

It's really rare to see people with this ability at such a young age.

They now need someone who understands the market and is reliable to join the industry and help them ship goods.

Instead of wandering around the market, it would be better to have more contact with this young and promising money shopkeeper.

At least from the current point of view, this person is not annoying except for his old-fashioned demeanor and quack habits.
