Chapter 971 The Young Man Stepping on Thunder (Continued)

At this time, the young man seemed to be blessed, and suddenly realized that there might be some problems, so he frowned, and quickly inspected the pen holder in his hand again, but found nothing wrong.

Afterwards, he struggled for a while, and finally he still didn't want to give up the pen holder, so he said to Hammer, "Boss, I want this pen holder, please wrap it up for me!"

"Okay!" Hammer took the pen holder with a smile on his face, then looked at the young man and said, "Little brother, do you want to order something?"

As Hammer asked, the movements of his hands were also very nimble. In the blink of an eye, he wrapped the pen holder.

"Look and talk!"

The young man made a perfunctory sentence, then took out a stack of money from the handbag, handed over the hammer, and took the pen holder over.

Seeing that the young man had completed the transaction, Chu Chen asked, "Boss Fang, how much is this pair of pigeon whistles?"

Hammer looked at the things in Chu Chen's hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chu, we are all friends. Since you like it, this pair of pigeon whistles will be worth two thousand for you."

Since the item was what Chu Chen liked, based on his reputation, Hammer said nicely, but the price was not ambiguous. Fortunately, although the price he said was not cheap, it was not too expensive, and Chu Chen knew that even if he The counter-offer was not much, so he simply agreed.

The young man next to him felt a little strange when Hammer called Chu Chen a teacher. Then he looked at Chu Chen carefully, but the more he looked at him, the more he felt familiar. When Chu Chen gave the money to Hammer, he remembered what Chu Chen was. Who is it? He immediately asked excitedly: "Excuse me, are you Teacher Chu from "Collection of the World", right?"

Chu Chen nodded with a smile: "I am Chu Chen."

The young man got an affirmative answer, and hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with Chu Chen excitedly: "Mr. Chu, among the many experts, you are the one I admire the most. I think you can be said to be a role model for our young collectors." !"

Chu Chen hurriedly and modestly expressed that he did not dare to do so.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the young man introduced himself, saying that his name was Xia Zhicheng and he was from Yunyun, Jincheng.

At the end, Xia Zhicheng saw the pen holder in his hand, rolled his eyes, and said to Chu Chen with a smile: "Mr. Chu, can you comment on this pen holder of mine?"

After speaking, he didn't seem to think that Chu Chen would object at all, so he opened the package just now.

Chu Chen was a little speechless about this. If you want to say that looking at a pen holder is a trivial matter for him, but Xia Zhicheng doesn't look at the occasion now. You just bought something and ask someone to help you in front of someone else's booth. Appraisal, it’s fine if it’s genuine, but if it’s a fake, if Chu Chen tells the truth, wouldn’t that embarrass Hammer?Because of this, Hammer will definitely bear a grudge against Chu Chen.

But if you want Chu Chen to refuse, Xia Zhicheng was so polite to him just now, if he refuses this matter, he is somewhat suspected of playing big cards.

So, don't look at it as a small request, but because of the wrong occasion, it will cause some bad consequences.Just like now, both Chu Chen and Hammer have a bad impression of Xia Zhicheng in their hearts.

Of course, considering that Xia Zhicheng is a young man in his twenties, he may not understand the world and the rules of the antique industry, so Chu Chen didn't care too much. Anyway, the other party is from Jincheng. There is an opportunity for contact.

Since it was inconvenient to refuse, Chu Chen planned to make a big mistake with vague words and let it go. Unexpectedly, when he got the item in his hand, he took a closer look and found that it was a genuine item.

This is a cylindrical pen holder, with the bottom of the mouth slightly outward and the bottom center slightly concave. The surface is painted with blue and white dragons and tigers. The image is lifelike, the expression is vivid, and the layers are distinct.

The carcass of this vessel is loose, gray-white in color, hard and thick, and the inner wall is covered with a bright green glaze.

The blue and white color material is made of Shiziqing, and the hair color is delicate and emerald, which is a relatively good color rendering. The rocks are vigorous and imposing, the waves are rolling, the dragon roars from the clouds, and the tiger looks up and glares. The artistic appeal of the picture is strong.

All the characteristics of the pen holder show that it is a real piece of Chongzhen blue-and-white porcelain in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also a fine work. It is basically more appropriate to buy it for 5000 yuan.

When he found out that it was a genuine product, Chu Chen couldn't be more curious. He knew Hammer's greedy character, and Xia Zhicheng, who looked like a novice, was already doing well. A genuine product, is this the sun coming out from the west?

Unable to figure out what was going on, Chu Chen stopped thinking about it. Since it was genuine, he had nothing to worry about, and simply told Xia Zhicheng the conclusion.

When Xia Zhicheng heard that it was the real thing, he immediately dispelled his worries. He thought to himself, it seems that he was overthinking just now. Thinking about it, it was the first time he came to Panjiayuan. What about sets?If this is the case, how chaotic the environment here is!

However, he broke the pen holder in the middle of the Ming Dynasty before, so the price of the thing would definitely be affected, so did he buy it expensive?
Thinking of this, Xia Zhicheng didn't know the taboo, and asked directly: "Mr. Chu, how much is this pair of pen holders worth now?"

Chu Chen was speechless when he heard that. Xia Zhicheng didn't know the rules of the antique business when he asked such a question. It's too bad to be so sophisticated. Even if you go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, you ask him in front of the boss. What do you think the boss thinks about how much the things other people buy are worth?
However, Xia Zhicheng didn't pay too much for this pen holder, so Chu Chen said, "The price is quite suitable", and then he took his leave and prepared to leave. He was afraid that Xia Zhicheng would ask some weird questions if he stayed here.

Hearing that he didn't pay too much, Xia Zhicheng thought that he was very lucky. Seeing that Chu Chen was leaving, he quickly asked him for a business card, saying that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely listen to Chu Chen's teachings.

After Chu Chen gave Xia Zhicheng his business card and left, Xia Zhicheng began to look at the things on the Hammer booth again.

At this time, I saw the man from the innermost position of the booth, picking up a porcelain inkstone to look at it, and said: "Boss, this inkstone is not ordinary, where did you get it?"

Hammer replied: "A pen holder and a pen washer are collected together with the pen container."

Speaking of the hammer, he took out a blue and white pen holder and a blue and white brush washer from behind. They were also very exquisite, very similar in style to that pen holder.

The man looked at it for a while and said: "It seems that this is a blue and white porcelain study, it is really rare."

Hearing this, Xia Zhicheng also went to watch it. The craftsmanship of the items was indeed very similar, and they were placed together very harmoniously. This made him subconsciously think that these must be genuine products after he had repaid the sweetness just now.

Seeing this situation, Xia Zhicheng decided to take away all the study rooms, but this time it was the man who fell in love with him first, so he couldn't open his mouth.

The man seemed to see what I was thinking, and said with a smile: "Little brother, since you have taken away the pen holder, I will ask you to take away the rest first. If you don't want it, I will take it all away." .”

When Xia Zhicheng heard this, he was very pleasantly surprised. You must know that the value of this set of things is not just one plus one. The value will often increase by a few percent according to the quality of the things.Now that there is such a good thing, there is no reason for him not to agree, and he quickly expressed his admiration for the man's courage.

While Xia Zhicheng was trading there, Chu Chen was looking at a bronze mirror away from their two booths. Although it was a little far away, he could still hear the movement there clearly.

When Chu Chen saw the time of the scene just now, he was immediately happy. It seemed that the sun would definitely not come out from the west. The hammer just now was simply reluctant to let the "child" not catch the wolf!What's more, he didn't suffer much from the "child" he gave up.

However, in the final analysis of all this, Xia Zhicheng suffered from his own greed. In addition, there were also reasons for his lack of experience.Not to mention anything else, just now the man actually violated a rule of the antique shop, forbidding to inquire about the origin of the seller's items.

Generally speaking, in the antique business, where a seller’s items come from has nothing to do with the buyer. It is the seller’s vision and ingenuity. It has nothing to do with him.

Moreover, the source of some sellers' things may not be very glamorous, and the buyer's inquiry will definitely violate the taboo of the seller.Therefore, under normal circumstances, if the buyer asks this question, it will often be boring.

Just like when Chu Chen was a hawker in the past, he hated this kind of inquisitive customers the most. If he was in a bad mood, he would never know the kind of customers who would ask "where did you get this baby?" take care of
If he is in a good mood, Chu Chen will often tease him: "Do you like to listen to stories? Okay, then I will make up a few for you, and you can judge which one is more interesting and which one is more credible."

At this time, customers are embarrassed to go any further.

Of course, because the source of things can provide some basis for identification, it is still okay for experts to ask this question during identification.

Closer to home, if Xia Zhicheng knew this rule just now, then when the man asked that question just now, he would have been vigilant in his heart, not to mention that the hammer didn't care about this question at all, and actually took out a blue and white pen as if waiting. Isn't it a bit of a coincidence to wash with a blue and white brush?
Maybe some friends will say, maybe this is really a coincidence?
But this is obviously impossible, just like Xia Zhicheng thought, the value of a complete set is obviously higher, how could Hammer not know this reason, in this case, why didn't he put things together, but separated them for a while For sale piece by piece, isn't this 300 taels of silver here?
