big antique dealer

Chapter 229
Zhou Shui forgot, Mr. Zhou is a master of Tai Chi.

The rest of the thugs were also shocked, several of them were holding knives and axes to watch around.At this time, another strong man with a knife rushed towards Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou only moved a step, getting out of the way of the knife, and separated his right arm from that of the man with the knife. After pressing and pushing, the man with the knife fell down with a groan. go out.The knife in his hand was also thrown aside.

Four fell to the ground in less than five seconds.

The strong man who was knocked down by Mr. Zhou was also surprised. It seemed that he was just let go, but he couldn't get up. The four screamed, but they just couldn't get up.

Zhou Shui knew that these four people's meridians were closed by Zhou Lao's Tai Chi.

At this time, Zhou Shui laughed dumbfounded himself.Indeed, at the critical moment, he forgot that he still has an expert father. If Mr. Zhou hadn't brought Zhou Shui back just now, he probably would have fallen on the ground at this moment.

Elder Zhou was still standing in the courtyard with his hands down.At this moment Boss Tang was also stunned and forgot to stop him.Neither did the remaining strong men go up, nor did they retreat.Just looking at Elder Zhou without embarrassment.

The few remaining people suddenly shouted and rushed towards Elder Zhou, only to see Elder Zhou turned around, followed the approach of the thugs, and with only a few cloud hands, put everyone on the ground.

Zhou Laomao wiped the dirt from his trouser legs.Turning his head, with a gloomy face, he asked the stunned Boss Tang: "Old Tang, as the old saying goes, you are a guest at the door. You can't do this on the stage."

Boss Tang came to his senses at this moment, with a mournful face: "Grandpa, dear grandpa, I have been wronged, you have seen it all, did I arrange this? Yes, I have to call 120."

Elder Zhou waved his hand: "That's not necessary, they were not injured, they just blocked the meridian, and it will be relieved after two hours. What do you old Tang say about this?"

"What are you talking about? It's purely a misunderstanding. You wait a moment, these brothers have to go to the house, and the neighbors must call 110 when they see it."

Mr. Zhou said: "Don't touch them within two hours, otherwise it will cause the root cause of the disease. You can lock the gate of the courtyard and let's talk."

Boss Sun slammed the courtyard door tremblingly.

Zhou Shui walked over, pulled the strong man who fell on the ground with his feet, and said, "Don't struggle, you won't be able to get up if you struggle, and you will fall ill if you struggle. Lying for two hours is your punishment, that is, My dad, if it were me, I would beat you five tubers and seven wounds."

Old Tang let everyone into the room, made tea in a proper manner, invited Mr. Zhou to sit down, and said, "I have reflected on what happened last time. I offended the young master, so why don't I accompany you here..."

Mr. Zhou interrupted him: "Old Tang, we didn't come here to ask for guilt. This... Boss Sun knows the inside story. Boss Sun will explain to Old Tang."

In fact, this is the first time in Mr. Zhou's life that he has fought with someone.It is not comprehensive to say that it is in desperation.If it was explained at the time, it may not necessarily be the case.Mr. Zhou always had other ideas - this old Tang is a messy person, and his fist is the last word.Put those people down, at least for Old Tang, there will be a deterrent effect, and the rest of the matter will be easier to handle.At least Old Tang would not have other ideas.

Boss Sun said: "Boss Tang, I didn't know that you had a feud with Mr. Zhou before. The reason why I brought you here is purely for business, who knows what happened. Is the business still going on? If you do, talk about business. If you don't do it Let's go."

Boss Tang looked at Elder Zhou, waiting for Elder Zhou's words.

Mr. Zhou: "It's a misunderstanding, let's expose it. Of course, this business has to be done, that old Tang... If we don't fight or make a deal, we know each other this time. Do whatever you want to do business, okay?"

This is of course good, Old Tang wished that Mr. Zhou would have such a remark.

Boss Tang hurriedly said: "I got it, I got it, I've learned how small you are. Let's do business, do business. You guys have tea first, and wait for me to take out the things. You have a look."

Boss Tang turned around and went into the back room, and after a while, he brought out a red velvet tray with a bunch of miscellaneous things on it, Boss Tang said: "There are still more in the house, you choose these first, and put the ones you choose aside first." , let’s talk about the price later.”

Put the tray on the table.In the tray are some small antique miscellaneous items, including jade waist pendants, agate fan pendants, jade smoking bottles, ancient jade finger rings, and bamboo, wood, tooth, and horn products.

Without using his hands, Zhou Shui could tell that these things were all ancient relics.These days, it's rare to see a collection of such delicate things coming together.Unless it's an auction, no matter whether it's a store or a collector, it's really hard to come up with such a batch of small masterpieces. Come on, these things can be gathered together, either in the auction house, or in the hands of grave diggers.

Obviously, the old Tang family is not the former.

At this time, Zhou Shui was basically sure that Boss Tang was Professor Fan's agent.The antique in Boss Tang's hand is the result of Professor Fan's insidious activities.

From a business point of view, this batch of Zhou Shui is not all right.Zhou Shui seldom buys and sells bamboo, wood, ivory, and horn products, mainly because he is not sure about the price, and rhino horn and ivory are wild animal products and cannot be sold in auctions, so there is no price reference. Class goods.

Zhou Shui and the others looked at it casually.Boss Tang brought out two more plates from the back room, and said with a mean smile, "It's all here, please pay attention. If you like it, I'll discount it more."

There are nearly a hundred pieces in this batch, and the quality is also uneven.

Zhou Shui looked it over roughly, and most of them were unsure about the price.Jade, agate, and emerald are the ones that can get the right price.According to Zhou Shui's purchase standard, these are not all of sufficient quality, and Zhou Shui doesn't like a few of them.

But the situation is different today. Today, you can buy what you want, and you have to buy if you don’t want to.

Zhou Shui first made a preliminary estimate of the market value. According to today's market price, the value of those goods that Zhou Shui can pull out is between 100 and 100 million.There are about [-] pieces left, and Zhou Shui can't figure out the price.It’s not that he doesn’t have any opinions. After all, Zhou Shui has been making antiques for four or five years. He has never eaten pork and seen pigs walking. He can estimate how much. A relatively safe estimate should be between [-] and [-]. Between ten thousand.Such a large span is also due to Zhou Shui's unprofessionalism.

After inspecting the goods, Zhou Shui pretended to be helpless: "I'm not asking the price for a single piece. Tell me the total price. What's the total price for this batch of goods?"

Boss Tang looked surprised, he had never seen anyone buy like this.Even if you are an antique generalist, there must be a trade-off between good and bad, right?Damn, catch up with the street drinkers.

This account is really not easy to calculate.Boss Tang asked for all the ledgers. Boss Sun pressed the calculator, and Boss Tang reported the number. He calculated it three times, and it took an hour.

Boss Tang finished quoting the price, and then asked Boss Zhou weakly: "Boss, the quality of this batch of goods is high or low, are you sure you are right? I am also a consignment agent for this batch of goods. The bill is settled, but it cannot be refunded." Goods, you have to think about it."

Zhou Lao laughed: "Old Tang, do you know what business we do?"

Boss Tang shook his head like a drum: "I don't know." Then he added: "I really want to know, but I dare not ask."

Mr. Zhou said: "My father and I opened an auction house, and this is the first auction. The first auction is not well-known, and it is difficult to collect lots, so we have to come out and buy some. The finer ones go to the big auction, and the lesser ones go to the small auction. .We need to cooperate more in the future.”

Zhou Shui spoke calmly, but Zhou Shui secretly wanted to laugh. In his impression, this was the first time his father had lied, but the lie was reasonable.Zhou Shui didn't want to laugh at this set of lies, but wanted to laugh at his father - he had a talent for lying.

Boss Tang immediately believed it: "No problem, just talk to me when you need me, Old Tang. Don't dare to say anything else, we must have good antiques here. Let's go offline, and the supply is sufficient."

Boss Tang glanced at Zhou Shui again, and said tentatively, "Master Zhou, why don't you pay back the price? As long as it's not outrageous, I, Old Tang, have nothing to say."

Zhou Shui deliberately said: "The things are okay, but the quantity is too small. First there is a big auction, followed by a small auction. Let me tell you clearly, I am short of [-] items in these two auctions alone. You Where did this shipment go?"

Boss Tang puffed up his chest: "I dare not say anything else, we still have something to do with two or three hundred pieces of goods. You wait for two days, and within two days, I will definitely let you see another batch of goods."

Zhou Shui pursed his lips deliberately: "I heard your words sound like bragging. When you buy antiques, you think you're buying big radishes. Just go to any vegetable market, and you can have as much as you want. Damn it, don't try to fool me with fakes. Me?"

Boss Tang's face was flushed, and the muscles in his neck were sticking out: "Master Zhou, you are always an expert, which one of my batches is fake? You don't know the inside story, and I can't tell. Anyway, I have another way."

"What's the way? Water or dry road? Ha, you think I don't understand this in the industry? One of the characteristics of antiques is that they can't be found. Return two or three hundred pieces, brag!"

Boss Tang was really anxious: "It's okay to tell you. I know an old professor who has taught students all over the world. These students are overseas to help him find good antiques. I take these goods from him. Three days, If I can't produce the goods after three days, I will beat you or punish you. I will admit it."

This is catchy, but Professor Fan didn't tell Boss Tang the truth.There is no way to tell the truth, if it is said that it was a trick, Boss Tang must be scared out of his wits.

Mr. Zhou took over the words: "Okay, Old Tang, I believe you, and I will wait for you for three days. But I also have a request, and I can't tell anyone that we are doing business with you. Otherwise, our business will be over." .”

Boss Tang was a little surprised: "What are you asking? There's no need to sneak around?"

Mr. Zhou said seriously: "What are we doing? We work in an auction house. If the customers of the auction house know that all my items are bought by us and are all our own, how can we promote them and attract investment? Shooting your own things is a big taboo in auctions."

Boss Tang slapped his thigh: "Understood, Old Sun is also listening, let's not spread this matter to the outside world. If anyone gets out, don't blame me, Old Tang, for turning my face and denying people."

Boss Tang looked at Zhou Shui with a mean smile again: "Master Zhou, what are you doing with this batch of goods now, do you still want to pay?"

Mr. Tang called Zhou Shui always with an old character, which shows that he was really scared.

Zhou Shui frowned: "You set a new price, make it well, and stop talking nonsense. If it is reasonable, I will give you this face."

"90. Master Zhou, it can't be less, and I can't explain it any less."

"Okay, okay, now swipe the card, can you swipe the card?"

"Yes, yes, ready."

Strictly swiping the card, Boss Tang wrapped each item in a tissue, put it in a pocket and handed it to Zhou Shui.After the business was over, Mr. Zhou was about to leave, but Mr. Tang begged with a bitter face, "There are still a lot of people lying in the yard, so don't leave them alone. When the gate of the yard is opened, the neighbors must call the police if they see it." no."

Before Mr. Zhou could speak, Zhou Shui took the lead and said, "If you are in a hurry, you will have to suffer a little. Can you bear it?"

"Tolerance, I can bear it." Boss Tang said helplessly.

Zhou Shui walked into the courtyard.Those strong men didn't struggle any more, and lay down with sad faces.Zhou Shui walked up to a strong man, and suddenly gave a heartwarming kick.The strong man let out a groan, and shrank his body like a shrimp.

When he was able to move, the strong man got up by himself, glanced at Zhou Shui secretly, didn't dare to say anything, and hid aside to rub his chest.

Elder Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he didn't say anything, and let Zhou Shui kick those people up.In fact, Zhou Shui has many ways to solve the stasis of these strong men, the best way is massage, as long as the chest spasm is cleared, these people will naturally be fine.But using Zhou Shui's method is faster, which can be regarded as Zhou Shui's punishment for these gangsters.

After Mr. Tang went out, a group of people went back to Mr. Sun's shop.

Boss Sun brewed tea and brought out the items we talked about earlier.Now Zhou Shui and his son are big customers in the eyes of Boss Sun. With a small business like Boss Sun, getting acquainted with customers like Zhou's father and son who spend millions of dollars in goods is not far from making a fortune. This is an industry practice.

Boss Sun said: "As we talked about earlier, the commission is [-]% and half, so you won't slip up?"

Before Zhou Shui could speak, Ruyu suddenly overtook the words: "We were brought to your house by sister Zhou. According to the rules, you and sister Zhou have to share the [-]% equally."

Boss Sun looked nervous: "Grandma, keep your voice down. Xiao Zhou is a child's family, and it's over after a few hundred yuan. You don't care about her share, I will handle it myself."

Mr. Zhou smiled: "Old Sun, this is not possible. I agreed to the [-]%, but I also agreed to it because Xiao Zhou still needs to get a share. Otherwise, according to the rules in the industry, I will die." Ten percent. Why, want to steal a child's money? Are you guilty?"

Hearing what Mr. Zhou said, Ruyu jumped up: "I'll call Miss Zhou." She turned and ran away.

Xiao Zhou came, coyly silent.It seems that Ruyu has already told Xiao Zhou.

It was Mr. Zhou who spoke first: "90% of the 13 yuan business is [-] yuan. Here, Xiao Zhou gets [-] yuan, and the remaining [-] yuan belongs to Lao Sun. Do you think it is reasonable?"

Of course Xiao Zhou would not object, so Boss Sun could only nod with a smile on his face.

Zhou Shui said: "Old Sun's previous goods were worth 22 yuan. Even the commission is 30 yuan. If you can, you can swipe your card."

Boss Sun smiled wryly and nodded.Yan Yan swiped the card, and Miss Zhou got a fortune, smiling from ear to ear.
