Chapter 88 Trading

Ning Xiaofan was naturally skeptical about Fatty's bragging.

In his impression, Fatty was an ignorant master since he was a child. Whether it is tomb robbery or appraising ancient relics, these all require very high professional knowledge. How did he learn it?How did you get involved in the business of tomb robbery?Ning Xiaofan asked curiously, but the fat man was vague, he only said that the family who adopted him opened an antique shop, and refused to say anything else.

Ask him if the antique shop is still there, the fat man said that the antique shop has been transferred and he just prevaricates it.

After the fat man introduced the basic situation of the team, he turned to Ning Xiaofan, "Xiaofan, what do you know? Do you have any specialties?"

Ning Xiaofan thought for a while and said, "I know how to blast. I used to be an engineer in the army, so I am familiar with blasting."

"Uh, that's it?" There was a trace of disappointment in the fat man's small eyes. When doing underground work, almost everyone can explode. He himself, the monkey, Zhang Chun, and Chen Biao can all explode. This is not unusual, and naturally it is not a specialty. up.

"Also, it's okay to fight."

"Damn, it's okay to fight. When you fight with me, you don't have a full head." The fat man was even more disappointed. Let alone Chen Biao is a good fighter. I didn't lose to him when I was young, but I was not as ruthless as this guy. That's all.

Seeing the disdain on his face, Ning Xiaofan touched his nose and said, "I can do both, oh, and I can also drive."

The fat man couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Your sister, you know how to drive, so you are ashamed to take it out, come on, we'd better treat you as a Buddha. You don't have to do anything with us. At most, if you find something, you can drive it." precious."

"Kaibao?"

"Uh, jargon." The fat man smiled mischievously: "We're not in the business of robbing tombs now, and it's probably not your turn to open treasures. However, as long as we can make it this time, if we are lucky enough to find some ore containing treasures, Before opening it, let your gold-touching hand touch it first, to increase your luck."

Ning Xiaofan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, can touching it increase luck?Why don't you just buy some lottery tickets yourself, and win millions if you touch the lottery twice, and get out of the ranks of the proletariat as soon as possible.

While talking, at this moment, I saw a few people going up to the second floor. Ning Xiaofan didn't see it with his back to the stairs, but the fat man could see clearly when he was facing the stairs. Seeing those people going upstairs, he whispered to Ning Xiaofan: "The owner of the goods is here, and the shoppers will probably be here soon, please sit down first, and I will go over to say hello to the monkey."

After the fat man finished speaking, he left the private room with the monkey.

Ning Xiaofan was a little curious when he heard the fat man said that the owner of the goods had come, and turned his head to look over. There were three people on the second floor, two middle-aged men and a fat woman.

At this moment, Fatty and Hou San went up to greet them. Both of them seemed to be familiar with each other. They greeted and exchanged greetings, and all the people went straight to a private room at the back. After entering the private room, the door was closed behind them.

The scene in the private room could not be seen, Ning Xiaofan was bored alone, and saw some old porcelain, copper stove and other decorations on the wooden shelf beside him, so he took a porcelain vase casually.

The porcelain vase in his hand is a plum vase with a white background of blue and white, and the words "Made in Yongzheng Year" on the bottom of the vase.Ning Xiaofan was taken aback, almost lost his grip, it's not that exaggerated, just take a porcelain vase from the Yongzheng period.

Take a closer look, your sister, this vase is an imitation, it is still relatively old, and it is a folk kiln product from the Republic of China.Today, each bottle of this bottle is worth about one or two thousand, which is considered an old product.

Put it back into the plum vase, and took out a small copper stove, this one is more mysterious, with green patina, simple and simple shape, it looks a bit like a bronze vessel at a glance.However, with the lessons learned from the past, Ning Xiaofan would not believe that it could be a real bronze ware. Sure enough, this small copper furnace is a miscellaneous copper piece. The copper rust on it is purely artificial, and it probably dates back to the Republic of China period.

The Republic of China was rich in fakes, especially the imitation porcelains of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is common for fakes to be regarded as treasures.

Ning Xiaofan's level is half-baked. When he cooperated with the archaeological team, he mixed with some high-level archaeological experts for a period of time and learned some identification techniques. The general fakes still couldn't hide from his eyes.

There are many objects placed on the wooden shelves, most of them are porcelain, big and small, and different shapes, but there are almost no real old ones, almost all of them are imitations from the Republic of China period, and there are only a few genuine ones from the late Qing Dynasty, but they are as good as The famous kiln has nothing to do with it, it has appreciation value, but it has little collection value.

Of course, there are tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of valuable collections, and it is impossible to place them in this hall as decorations in a grandiose way.

Just when Ning Xiaofan was looking at the decorations there boredly, some people came one after another, most of these people entered the private room where the fat man and others were, only two of them seemed to come to drink tea, casually He took a seat in the hall and sat down.

At this time, another person came up. This person was about 35 or 6 years old. He was wearing a brocade Tang suit, his hair was neatly combed, and he was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

Maybe it was because the man in the Tang suit looked more outstanding, so Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

The middle-aged man in the Tang suit walked slowly, Shi Shiran, and seemed to be very leisurely. Similarly, he went straight to the private room inside. After he entered, the private room was not closed, and Hou San came out .

Hou San arrived at the cubicle, poured a small cup of tea from the teapot, drank it in one gulp, and said, "Brother Fan, Brother Fat told you to go to the private room."

Ning Xiaofan was also very curious about the business in the private room, so without further ado, he followed Hou San to the private room.

After entering the private room, Ning Xiaofan realized that the private room was quite spacious. There were two rooms inside and outside. There was a long mahogany table in the outside room. There was a row of mahogany chairs beside the table.The furnishings inside are about the same.Compared with the outer room, the area is slightly smaller, the table is a square table, and a few round stools, but the material is very high-grade, it is actually pineapple wood, the layout is compact, and it feels much more elegant.

At this moment, many people were already sitting around the long mahogany table, at a glance, there were about ten people, except for the first few seats that were vacant, there were still a few vacancies left.The few people sitting in the room were two men and a woman who entered the private room first, and the fat man and the man in Tang suit were also there.

Hou San led Ning Xiaofan to an empty seat beside the mahogany table and sat down, and he himself sat down nearby, and finally, he leaned into Ning Xiaofan's ear and said, "Brother Fan, when we trade later, you Just open your eyes and don't talk casually."

Ning Xiaofan nodded to show that he understood, and glanced at the people present, and saw that the people present did not seem to notice his new face, those who were familiar with each other sat there whispering and whispering, and those who came alone would also Keep silent, either close your eyes and rest your mind, or play WeChat with your mobile phone.Among them is an old man with gray hair holding a tablet and pulling something there?The expression is very focused.

The old man played a tablet, very fashionable, Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but glanced at the tablet, he was surprised at once, the old man was indeed very fashionable, playing "Plants vs. Zombies".

After sitting for a long time, the people inside came out, and the fat woman was in the front, holding a wooden box in her hand, and sat down at the first place.Two middle-aged men, fat men and men in Tang suits sat down nearby.

The fat woman seemed to be a frequent visitor here, and she didn't feel a bit cramped. After greeting a few acquaintances present, she cleared her throat and said, "Thank you very much for coming to join me, so I won't talk nonsense here. Once a friend of mine came back from overseas and brought some small objects, and entrusted me to bring them here so that everyone can help you drill eyes. If you are satisfied, you can trade them on the spot, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t like them.”

After the fat woman finished speaking, everyone present laughed. Overseas friends and commissions are just superficial talk, and no one believes it.

At this time, the fat woman pushed the wooden box on the table forward. This wooden box was one and a half feet long and nearly one foot wide, and it was made of red sandalwood. It won't be that bad.When the wooden box was opened, everyone's eyes lit up, and they saw that the wooden box was covered with velvet, and on the velvet, gems were inlaid, red, green, blue, purple, white, or round, or square, or in the shape of a rhombus. Different sizes, colorful and shining.

In addition to gemstones, there are also several pieces of jade, a bracelet, a hand piece, and two pendants, three of which are emerald green, and the hand piece is white and yellowish, it looks like Hetian jade at a glance.

As for jade, Ning Xiaofan generally knows a little bit. For example, jadeite has the saying of "concentrated yang and positive harmony", among which the Laokeng glass variety is the best.Hetian jade depends on skin color and water head.To identify jade, two pieces of equipment are essential, a scale and a bright flashlight.Among them, the strong light flashlight is particularly important. Through the strong light flashlight, you can check the internal texture of the jade, whether there are dark wounds, cracks, jade flowers, textures, ink spots, etc...

Ning Xiaofan didn't have any appraisal equipment, so he could only get a rough idea with his naked eyes, but the collectors present all came prepared, and brought out miscellaneous appraisal equipment such as bright flashlights, magnifying glasses, and scales.

Some of the collectors present were interested in jade wares, and some were interested in gemstones. There were many people, but they were not chaotic. The ones who were close to each other appreciated it first, and passed it to the next person after the appreciation.

Since Ning Xiaofan knew about Ditoubao, he became more interested in gemstones, and his eyes were fixed on the gemstones in the wooden box.

The so-called insider looks at the doorway, and the layman watches the fun. He really knows too little about gems. The gems in the wooden box are bright in color and shiny, and they look bright and beautiful, but they are worth nothing. don't know.Seeing the collectors here enjoying themselves with the identification equipment in their hands, he could only watch the excitement from the sidelines.
