Jianbao life

Chapter 614

Seeing Chu Chen nodding, Chu Yulan was also very happy. She put the things next to the pottery dog ​​just now, and asked, "Boss, how much are these three things in total?"

The young man looked at the three things Chu Yulan had chosen, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile on his face, "This one is one thousand two, this one is one thousand, this one is the cheapest, only six hundred and two, a total of two thousand eight hundred and two , for those who celebrate Chinese New Year, just count you two thousand and eight."

Hearing the price, Chu Yulan said angrily, "Two thousand and eight? Why don't you just grab it!"

Because of Chu Chen's influence, now Chu Yulan usually likes to go online to look up knowledge about antiques. Although she is still a newcomer in terms of knowledge, she is still clear about the price. Therefore, she knows that the three ceramics she chose Figurines, now, no matter what, the price can't be two thousand and eight.

Chu Chen also said, "Boss, your price is a bit expensive."

After all, these three items are just pottery, which determines that their market value cannot be too high. Chu Chen estimates that these three items are only worth two thousand and two at most.

The young man asked with a smile: "Then how much are you going to give?"

Chu Yulan thought for a while and said, "I'll give you eight hundred at most!"
Hearing the price given by his sister, Chu Chen shook his head secretly, thinking, Xiaolan still lacks experience, and in the antique business, which one is not asking for a lot of money, and paying back the money on the ground, if it was him just now, he must have directly asked for two hundred .

When the young man heard the price given by Chu Yulan, a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile, "Eight hundred is too little, at least two thousand six!"

"No, up to nine hundred!" Chu Yulan shook her head again and again.

"Then two thousand and five!"

"At most one thousand, it's not that I don't know how to do it, if it's higher, I won't want it!"

"If you don't want it, forget it, hehe!"

Unexpectedly, what Chu Chen and his sister didn't expect was that the young man actually had to refuse, and directly took out the three pottery figurines and put them in a box next to him. Chu Chen saw that there were already many of them in the box. Terracotta figures and pottery too.

Chu Yulan had never encountered such a thing before, she was a little dazed for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she angrily scolded: "You...what's the matter with you!"
"What's wrong with me? Is there something wrong? You are not satisfied with the price I gave, so of course I don't want to sell it. Could it be that you plan to buy and sell by force?" The young man also replied very rudely.

At this moment, Chu Chen immediately understood what was going on.This young man chose to set up a stall in this remote corner, not because he wanted to sell things, but because he wanted others to help him pick out good things.

The young man doesn't know if these pottery are good or bad. If you ask an expert to appraise them, the appraisal fee for these dozens of hundreds of items is not a small sum. The goods are not even enough for the appraisal fee, so isn't he losing money?That's why he came up with the idea now.

You know, there are quite a lot of masters in Liulichang, and now it is during the temple fair, there should be more knowledgeable people who come to buy antiques. In addition, he is very good at reading people, and he really picked out a lot of good things in one day. .

It was precisely because the young man came up with the idea of ​​finding a free appraiser, so at the very beginning, he said something that didn't sound like a businessman's, and Chu Yulan's answer was equivalent to leaking a secret.

Chu Chen knew that even if the younger sister directly agreed to the price offered by the young man just now, the other party would definitely find other reasons to put away the things, and the more expensive the price offered, the faster the other party would probably accept it.

The young man violated the taboo of the antique industry. If he was in the antique industry, he would definitely be excluded by others. However, judging from this person's words and deeds, he is obviously not in the antique industry, so Even if you want to punish him, there is no good way.

Seeing that his sister was still arguing, Chu Chen interrupted, "Okay, that's the end of this matter."

Then, he picked up a pottery horse from the stall and said, "Boss, I also understand what you mean. It's okay to pick something for you, but it's Chinese New Year, you can't let us go home empty-handed." In this way, I will not choose good things, this year is the year of the horse, so I will sell this gray pottery horse to me, how about it?"

The young man looked at the pottery horse in Chu Chen's hand. It was gray and inconspicuous. If it didn't look like a horse, he would have thought it was a mule, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll give it to you, but at least five Hundred!"

Hearing this, Chu Chen frowned and said, "Boss, you are too unkind at this price, isn't it? With this quality, it's only a hundred at most!"

"This is a pottery horse from the Han Dynasty. One hundred is impossible, at least three hundred!" The young man shook his head and refused.

Chu Chen pondered for a while, and then said: "Three hundred is too expensive, if you add something else, it will be fine!"

"What?" After finishing speaking, the young man chuckled secretly, he already knew that your ulterior motives were not about drinking.

"Just this one, how about it?" Chu Chen chose a white porcelain bowl among the dozen or so pieces of porcelain.

"How is this possible? My bowl can be worth the price of this pottery horse. At most, you can choose one of these pieces of porcelain!" The young man directly took the bowl that Chu Chen chose, and then he was a little satisfied Pointing to the few pieces of porcelain covered with dirt.

What is drowsiness comes with a pillow, this is the situation in front of me!
Just now Chu Chen thought that if he directly chose that treasure, the other party might be suspicious, so he chose the white porcelain bowl first. He felt that with this young man's greedy character, he would definitely make a mistake. It was indeed the same as what he thought, and even gave him the next reason.

"What a lovely person!"

Chu Chen chuckled in his heart, but he showed a look of surprise on the surface. Chu Yulan next to him was also furious, and the young man felt even more proud when he saw the appearance of the two of them.

After a while, the young man said, "Hey, do you still want to buy this thing? You agreed just now, you can't go back on your word!"

Chu Chen glanced at the other party with deep meaning, and then said: "Don't worry, since I agreed, I will definitely not go back on my word!"

As he said that, Chu Chen took out 300 yuan and paid it to the other party, then picked up the pottery horse and a piece of pottery, and said, "Is that okay?"

The young man saw that Chu Chen took a small black porcelain bowl, which looked dirty and unaesthetic, so he agreed with a smile.

Chu Yulan was very surprised when she saw that Chu Chen really had to take a very bad piece of porcelain, but she also knew that Chu Chen would not be aimless, so she didn't ask her doubts.

"Chu Chen!"

However, when Chu Chen stood up and hadn't taken a few steps, he heard someone calling him not far behind him. When he looked back, it turned out that the person calling him was Guan Guokang. The 27-year-old man, judging by his hulking appearance and spirit, should be the bodyguard hired by Guan Guokang.

"Hey, Mr. Guan, are you here to visit the temple fair too?" Chu Chen quickly greeted Guan Guokang with a smile.

Guan Guokang shook his head with a smile: "I have old arms and legs, why would I come to the temple fair? It's just that I have an appointment today, and the other party's hands and feet are not convenient, so I have no choice but to come by myself But I was afraid that there would be too many people on the road, so I asked for a helper." As he spoke, he pointed to the man next to him.

Chu Chen smiled and nodded.

The two sides exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Guan Guokang saw what Chu Chen was holding in his hand. He passed the pottery horse after a glance, and the other gray-looking teacup made his eyes twitch. Liang, he felt that with Chu Chen's ability, if this tea cup had no special features, he would definitely not buy it.

"Xiao Chu, did you buy something good? Show me quickly!"

Chu Chen chuckled, and then handed the black porcelain teacup to Guan Guokang.

The young man not far away stared at Chu Chen. He didn't know Chu Chen, but he still knew Guan Guokang, an old man in the antique industry in the capital and even the whole country. He knew that Guan Guokang had written many books. He recently I have also read one, and I admire Guan Guokang very much.

Now not only did he see that Chu Chen actually knew Guan Guokang, but also that the little bowl that he thought was worthless just now was actually considered a leak, which made him feel annoyed.

Because the surface of the teacup was full of dirt, Guan Guokang seemed to be struggling a bit. After a while, he frowned and said, "Xiao Chu, this teacup looks like a kiln-changing Tianmu cup!"

Chu Chen smiled and shook his head: "It should not be Yaobian Tianmu Zhan!"

"Isn't it?" Guan Guokang frowned when he heard the words, then looked at the teacup to the sunset for a while, and then said in shock: "Xiao Chu, you wouldn't say that this is Yaobian Tianmuzhan, right? "

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Yes and no!"

"What do you mean?" Guan Guokang was a little confused by Chu Chen.

"Specifically, let's talk as we go!" Chu Chen chuckled, he was really afraid that the young man with red eyes would go mad with depression.

However, before Guan Guokang could respond, the young man rushed over, but he was grabbed by the bodyguards beside Guan Guokang within a few steps.

The young man struggled a few times without breaking free, so he shouted, "Old Guan, please tell me, how much is this thing worth?"

"Who is this?" Guan Guokang glanced at the young man and asked in confusion.

"Old Guan, that's what happened..." Before Chu Chen could speak, Chu Yulan who was beside him chattered about what happened just now.

Guan Guokang knew what was going on halfway through hearing it. He is an old-timer in the antique world, and he attaches great importance to character and rules. Hearing that the young man in front of him has such a bad character, he immediately showed disgust in his eyes. look.

And in order to let the young man learn a lesson, Guan Guokang said directly: "If this tea cup is a celestial eye cup, and if it is cleaned and in good condition, it will be worth at least tens of millions!"
