Chapter 34 Chunming Antique City

The Chunming Antique City in the morning was already full of people, including old men and women, young men and women, Chinese and foreigners.Compared with the antique street in Zhangwei County, the scale here is much larger, and the stalls are filled with various styles of porcelain, jade, pottery, sculptures and other objects.

Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei's first stop was Chunming Antique City. Liu Mei was no stranger to Chunming. In the past, she often came to Chunming to sell goods, and often shopped for second-hand goods in the Antique City. This time, she was naturally full of hope. Come.As for Fu Qingyang, because he discovered the ability of Lingtong to appraise treasures, he is naturally full of confidence.

Compared with Liu Mei, Fu Qingyang's method of detecting old things is much simpler. He only needs to glance at the booth, and he can judge whether there is any good stuff on the booth according to the color of Baoguang, while Liu Mei It is necessary to distinguish these things carefully with real talents and real learning.

Fu Qingyang found that the things in Chunming Antique City were of a higher grade than those on the antique stalls in Zhangwei County, and many of the stalls could be seen objects showing yellow precious light, and these things were worth tens of thousands.

"Meizi, what do you think of this brush washer?" Fu Qingyang picked up a brush washer from the booth and asked.

This brush wash looks natural, the enamel is warm and moist, and more importantly, the Baoguang on the brush wash is dark yellow.According to Fu Qingyang's judgment on Baoguang, this washing can be worth at least 9 to [-] yuan. If it can be bought at a low price, it can make a small profit.

Liu Mei was standing next to Fu Qingyang looking at things, and seeing him handing over a brush washer, she took it and started appreciating it carefully.At the beginning, Liu Mei was a little disapproving of the brush that Fu Qingyang liked, but soon she frowned.

"Mr. Fu, although this item is not very good, it is still passable." Liu Mei said calmly.

"Is it just barely enough to see?" Fu Qingyang also frowned, he felt that he could not mistakenly read it, and something with a deep yellow light should be worth eighty to ninety thousand.

"If Mr. Fu likes it, it's good to play around with this brush at ordinary times, and practice your eyesight." Liu Mei smiled slightly, but reached out her hand to Fu Qingyang's back and pinched it lightly.

"That's it!" Fu Qingyang immediately understood Liu Mei's meaning, and his eyes cooperated with sadness.

After hesitating for a while, Fu Qingyang looked up at the stall owner, and found that the stall owner was a little old man in his 60s, looking at him and Liu Mei with a smile, the smile on the corner of his mouth was very interesting.

"Boss, I like this thing very much. Please quote me a price. If the price is right, I'll buy it." Fu Qingyang couldn't understand the little old man's expression, but he didn't want to know, so he asked the price directly.

"Not for sale!" The little old man was still smiling.

"Don't sell? Aren't you setting up a stall to sell things? Why don't you sell them?" Fu Qingyang was taken aback by the little old man's words, and asked incomprehensibly.

"Other things in my stall, you fancy that one, feel free to buy it, but this brush can't be washed." The little old man replied very simply.

"But we've taken a fancy to your brush washer. Are you afraid that we won't be able to afford it?" Liu Mei raised her eyebrows, her temper was not very good, and her tone was full of gunpowder.

"I have a habit of doing business, that is, good things are only sold to people who know the goods, so I won't sell them to you." The little old man didn't even look at Liu Mei.

"So, do you think your pen wash is very valuable?" Liu Mei calmed down after hearing what the little old man said. She knew that it was impossible for her to find out if she met an expert today.

"Of course, purple mouth and iron feet, stable shape, simple and generous, isn't it a good thing? If it weren't for the disability, I'm afraid I wouldn't show it." The little old man looked at Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei disdainfully, That meaning seems to say that if you want to find a leak in my place, there is no way.

"Even if you are an old thing, there should be a price?" Liu Mei asked coldly.

"If you admit that this is an old thing, I will take it away for 12 yuan." The little old man was very arrogant, as if whoever bought his thing could take advantage of it.

"12? Although yours is an old item, 12 is an exaggeration. How about we give you [-]?" Fu Qingyang also frowned and counter-offered.

"I'm sorry, it's 12 yuan, and I won't sell it for a cent less!" The little old man's character is obviously very stubborn, and he will not let go of the death price.

"Forget it then!" Fu Qingyang stood up, pulled Liu Mei and left.

The little old man did not expect Fu Qingyang to be so decisive, so he glanced at him in surprise.But then he regained his calm, and he didn't stop the two of them, allowing them to leave.

"Mr. Fu, why don't you talk about it again? I think that thing can be worth more than a hundred thousand. If you talk about it again, you might be able to make a small fortune." Liu Mei felt a little regretful about giving up the brush washer just like that. .

"I think the stall owner is a master of goods, so I'm afraid he won't let go easily. Besides, the price of that thing is not that exaggerated. It's worth [-] to [-] yuan at most. It's not a big profit, and I don't bother to argue with him." Judging from the glaze color, Fu Qingyang actually doesn't like that brush washer, so if he buys it as an antique, he won't be interested at all.

"That's true. Anyway, this antique city is very big, so I'm not afraid that I won't be able to buy good things." Liu Mei couldn't help but look at him in surprise when she heard Fu Qingyang say with certainty that the brush wash was only worth [-] to [-] yuan at most. , she herself was a little uncertain about the value of that brush.

Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei walked around the stall for a while, but they were still empty-handed, and they didn't find a single good thing.Speaking of which, there are still some real things in the antique city, but these things are regarded as treasures by the stall owners, and the prices are very expensive, so Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei will naturally not buy such things.

"In the current antique market, there are indeed many things to pick up!" Fu Qingyang sighed. Originally, he thought that with the skill of Lingtong appraising treasures, he would be able to flourish, but he didn't expect that the antique market would be so unsatisfactory. boom.

"Mr. Fu, as long as you have eyesight, you still have a chance. As the saying goes, looking for a place through iron shoes is easy. As long as you maintain a peaceful mind, you may be able to meet a real treasure by coincidence." Liu Mei saw Fu Qingyang was a little disappointed, so he couldn't help but cheer him up.

"Well said, I've been taught!" Fu Qingyang felt enlightened after hearing Liu Mei's words.

Here, Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei were talking, when they suddenly heard exclamations from an antique shop in the antique city.

"It's going up, it's going up!" Someone kept shouting loudly, and the antique shop became a mess, and they crowded in to watch.

"Let's go and have a look too!" Fu Qingyang said to Liu Mei beside him, not knowing what was so lively.

"Okay!" Liu Mei was naturally obedient to Fu Qingyang, besides, after wandering around in the antique market for so long, she couldn't buy any good things, so she was just thinking about it.

Fu Qingyang and Liu Mei came to the quaint shop, and saw a plaque hanging on the shop, which said: "Looking at flowers in the fog".When Liu Mei saw the name, she immediately said, "It's quite interesting!"

"Meizi, do you know what this store does?" Fu Qingyang asked.

"This should be a jade shop. In addition to selling finished jade, the main activity is probably the sale of rough jadeite. The name of looking at flowers in the fog is quite appropriate for such a jade shop that bets on stones." Liu Mei's knowledge of antiques is much richer than that of Fu Qingyang, and she explained it clearly and logically.

"Stone gambling?" Fu Qingyang couldn't help getting a little excited when he heard this word. Although he had never played stone gambling, he had heard some reports about getting rich overnight through stone gambling.

"That's right, Chunming's rough jadeite is very famous, but betting on stones is too risky. There is a saying that one can be rich and one can be poor, and it is difficult for a god to break an inch of jade, so I never touch betting stones." Liu Mei saw Fu Qingyang The excited look in his eyes felt the need to remind him.

"I see, don't worry, I'll just go in and see the excitement." The excitement in Fu Qingyang's eyes didn't diminish at all, even stronger than before.

Seeing the look in Fu Qingyang's eyes, Liu Mei couldn't help but secretly sighed. In her opinion, the reminder just now was for nothing.

There is a circle of glass counters in the center of the jade shop, inside which are various jadeite products, the big ones are like sitting sculptures, and the small ones have bracelets and rings.On both sides of the jade shop, there are two rows of wooden antique racks, on which pieces of rough jadeite are neatly placed.On the right near the door, there is a stone cutter.At this time, a large group of people were surrounding the stone cutter, discussing a piece of cut stone enthusiastically.

Fu Qingyang also went up to take a look curiously, and found that the section of the rough jadeite cut from the middle revealed a light green color, very elegant, although not transparent, but very moist, full of water, with a refined beauty.

"The hibiscus species has good water head, and what's more valuable is that it is big enough, and you should be able to buy hundreds of thousands of them!" Someone next to it was discussing.

The buyer of this rough emerald stone has already laughed. The performance of the rough jade he bought is not particularly good. The reason why he bought it was just to try his luck. It was that good, and the bet went up all at once.

"Dude, I'll offer 20, and I'll sell it to you!" Someone began to bid.

"I'll pay 25 million!"

"I'll pay 30 million!"

.

What followed was a fierce scramble.Seeing these people keep bidding, Fu Qingyang shook his head secretly, because the precious light he saw on this raw jadeite of the hibiscus species was only pale yellow. If the principle of rough jadeite and antiques is the same, then this rough jadeite is at most It's worth [-] to [-] yuan, and everyone's quotation is obviously too high.
