Chapter 276 Zhengzhou Antique City

Wang Haoming stretched out his hand, trying to take down the painting.But he found that the painting was hanging on the wall without moving at all. After trying to pull it down for a while, on the floor under the stairs, a two-meter-square iron door suddenly and quietly appeared.

However, the door is tightly closed. There are three rows of Arabic numerals on the door, which should be a security door with a combination lock.

Wang Haoming remembered that among the documents that Luo Feng handed over to him, there seemed to be one that was locked, so he quickly opened the bag he was carrying and searched for it.

Sure enough, there is a password for the basement security door in the document. This door is not simple. It was made by a professional security company. It is difficult for ordinary people to open without a password.

Wang Haoming carefully read the introduction about this security door, and after figuring it out, he first opened the door according to the password on the document.Then reset it again, from now on, only Wang Haoming can open this door.

With the opening of the security door, the lights inside immediately turned on, which should be voice-activated. Wang Haoming could see that there was a section of wooden stairs extending down from the door.

"Fuck, is this the basement or the collection room?"

Just looking at the concealment of this basement, Wang Haoming decided that his piece of red jadeite wool and the imperial green jadeite obtained from Yang Hao's booth should be transferred to this basement.

As for the place where the stones can be unloaded, Wang Haoming is also optimistic. He can put a small stone unloading machine in the garage, and when the garage door is closed, no one will know what is going on inside.

The basement is not big, only more than ten square meters.There are two inlet and outlet holes, and the cold air can also reach the inside, which will not make people feel stuffy.

And there is a row of ledges inside, like the kind of antiques placed in an antique shop. It may be of little value, and the personnel who came to investigate the case did not remove it.

This is convenient for Wang Haoming. The whole is a ready-made collection room. It seems that the former owner not only has made achievements in architecture, but is also a collector. The only pity is that those shelves are empty. No paper was left.

After leaving the villa, in the next few days, Wang Haoming was so busy that he didn't have time to touch the bench.

Luo Yuwei, who is far away in the UK, expressed her wishes very euphemistically. Well, the newly released water bed seems to be very good.

Just finished working on the villa, Wang Haoming received a call from Chen Manfei, asking him to accompany him to Zhengzhou, and it was quite urgent.

Driving directly out of the urban area and onto the highway, Wang Haoming smiled wryly: "Why are you in such a hurry, you always have to go back to get some change of clothes, this time going out is not a day or two!"

"What kind of clothes should I get for a change of clothes? If I need a change, I can buy it in Zhengzhou!" Chen Manfei waved his hand indifferently, and Wang Haoming was quite speechless.

The car drove very fast all the way. I don't know if it was because of the fast car. Now Chen Manfei would drive more than 120 yards whenever he got on the highway.

Wang Haoming looked at the excited Chen Manfei and was very worried about her. He didn't know what expression she would have when facing the pile of fines when the car was inspected in the future.

The two entered the urban area of ​​Zhengzhou, "Let's go somewhere to eat first, I invite you!" Wang Haoming lowered the car window to get some air, and said to Chen Manfei.

"Don't say it's your request, let me tell you, I'm picky about what to eat, be careful I'll make you poor!" Chen Manfei replied without turning her head while looking at the front.

Wang Haoming couldn't help shaking his head, even if Chen Manfei ate the best delicacies from mountains and seas, it would be difficult to eat him poorly. Chen Manfei didn't know that Wang Haoming's net worth exceeded [-] million.

Chen Manfei said it very fiercely, but when she really ate, she chose a small restaurant, and said that Wang Haoming would be spared for this meal, because she hadn't eaten the side dishes here for a long time, so she came here to savor it.

"I haven't been to Zhengzhou for a long time, let's go shopping in a while!"

Chen Manfei stretched her waist, which attracted the eyes of countless men who were eating in the restaurant. Some of them even stared at Wang Haoming fiercely, cursing why it was not him who was sitting opposite the beautiful woman, and the cow dung took over the flowers first.

After eating, Chen Manfei didn't care whether Wang Haoming finished eating or not, grabbed his bag and dragged Wang Haoming out of the restaurant, leaving a bunch of disappointed eyes.

Chen Manfei drove in the direction of Zhengzhou University, and stopped in the parking lot in front of an antique building in less than 10 minutes.

"Here, it's here, you haven't been here before." Chen Manfei looked excitedly at the big building in front of him. There were five large characters on the door: Zhengzhou Antique City.

"Let me tell you, I haven't shopped here for a long time, this time I must take a good look, don't disturb my interest, if I don't say leave, I won't leave!"

Chen Manfei took Wang Haoming and walked inside, warning Wang Haoming while walking, Wang Haoming shook his head with a wry smile, Chen Manfei was always very excited when he mentioned antiques.

Since it was lunch time, there were not many customers in the lobby on the first floor of the Antique City. Many scattered sellers were either reading books there, or were eating with boxed lunches, all looking lazy.

"There are a lot of things here." Wang Haoming glanced around, and there were dozens of porcelain sellers in the hall on this floor.

All kinds of porcelain are placed on the walls and in the counters, and then there are countless bronzes, and there are a lot of ancient coins and books.

"There are a lot of things, but they are all handicrafts. Let me tell you, this is called the handicraft market. I am looking for antiques in the handicraft market!"

Wang Haoming, who was walking, almost fell down. Chen Manfei called the Antique City a handicraft market. This was the first time he had heard such a statement.

Chen Manfei ignored Wang Haoming, and walked past the stalls in the hall one by one. There were many things in front of him, but there were not many real things, and some of them were worthless. It's not easy, and the requirements for eyesight are quite high.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Chen Manfei suddenly stopped in front of a carving booth and carefully observed a jade carving in the shape of a few green bamboos.

"Ma'am, you have really good eyesight. Let me tell you, this is an emerald fairy bamboo from the Qing Dynasty. Lafayette Cixi loved it as much as the emerald cabbage!" the stall owner immediately introduced to Chen Manfei.

Wang Haoming just followed, and the things looked okay at first glance, with a simple charm. Of course, he didn't believe it at all when it was said that it was used by Cixi.

"You said it was used by Cixi, what evidence do you have?" Chen Manfei asked.

"Of course there is evidence. Look here, there is Lafayette's name. Do you see it? It's not something used by Cixi. Who dares to engrave this name on it!"

When Chen Manfei asked, the stall owner immediately got excited, pointing to the wooden tray of the bamboo and jade carvings and said, there are a few traditional characters engraved on it, but it is impossible to see what is engraved on it.

"Okay, stop making up stories. This is not real jade, but Nanyang jade. Tell me, how much is it?"

Chen Manfei raised his head and glanced at the stall owner. The stall owner was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled embarrassingly: "So you are an expert, since you are an expert, just tell me, how much can you give?"

Wang Haoming also took the bamboo and emerald carving and looked at it carefully.Nanyang Cui, also known as Dushan Jade, is a product of Dushan in Nanyang. It is also jadeite. It is very similar to jadeite, but the price is far worse.

"Someone deliberately made it look like jadeite. Nanyang Jade itself is very similar to jadeite. If you process it a little, ordinary people can't tell it!" Chen Manfei said slowly as he flipped through the emerald bamboo and jade ornaments.

When she first saw it, she also thought it was jadeite, but when the stall owner told the nonsensical story, she immediately aroused her suspicion. After careful identification, she found that it was actually a fake made by Nanyang Cui.

Nanyang Cui is also jadeite, which is about the same hardness as jadeite, and its color is very similar to jadeite. Some unscrupulous merchants use these characteristics to make fakes to make huge profits.

Wang Haoming looked at Nanyang Cui carefully, and activated his spiritual power, and then Chen Manfei who was next to him was also shrouded in the spiritual power.

Wang Haoming saw those nosebleed scenes clearly, and he didn't even have the mood to analyze Nanyang Cui.

Wang Haoming could smell the faint fragrance from Chen Manfei's body, coupled with the blood-spitting picture, a man in this situation would probably have other ideas, and Wang Haoming was no exception.

"Look at something, look at something!"

Wang Haoming forced himself to ignore Chen Manfei, and focused all his attention on the Nanyang Cui ornament. As soon as he turned his attention, Wang Haoming immediately realized that something was wrong. The ornament in front of him was indeed not made of jadeite. It was not the same on the inside except for the appearance. .

"Huh? What is that?"

Wang Haoming was stunned for a moment. The stall owner in front of him had many carvings, including jade carvings, stone carvings and wood carvings. What he found was a large painted stone carving of Maitreya Buddha. There was a blood red in the stone carving's belly.

"300!"

Chen Manfei didn't know Wang Haoming's careful thinking, and after taking a look at him, he ignored him, and after thinking about it for a while, he offered a price to the stall owner.

"Grandma, even if it's Nanyang Cui, it's a good Cui. Three hundred is a bit low. What do you think of one thousand?"

The stall owner immediately made an application like cutting flesh, but his eyes rolled, and he took a sneak look at Chen Manfei.

"One thousand? You, a second-level Nanyang Cui, have the nerve to open one thousand. In this way, the maximum is 400 yuan, and it will not be sold!" Chen Manfei stood up while talking.

The carving of this piece of Nanyang jadeite is not bad, after all, it is intended to fool people to sell it as jadeite. If you say that you can buy real good jadeite here, I am afraid no one will believe it, even if you can’t see it. buy here.

"Don't, don't, sister, it's because we can't negotiate a deal. See if this works. Five hundred. This is my purchase price. It really can't be lower. If you want it, I'll give it to you!"

The stall owner hastily called Chen Manfei to stop. He has had this piece of Nanyang Cui ornament for almost a month. He originally wanted to bluff a ignorant person into selling it for a high price, but now people are so smart that they don’t believe that it is still in his place. Can pick up leaks.

If it hasn't been sold for such a long time, he can only dispose of it quickly, otherwise the longer it is left, the worse it will be for him. At that time, people will think that he is selling fake products here, and they will not buy things from him in the future.

"five hundred!"

Chen Manfei stopped, thought for a while, took out the wallet from the bag, and handed the stall owner five red notes.At least the carving of this Nanyang Cui ornament is not bad, and the price of five hundred is not high.

Besides, Chen Manfei knew very well that the Dushan Jade Mine had already been shut down, and that Nanyang Cui would only go up and not down in the future, and it would definitely not lose money if it was bought at a price of [-].

The only regret is that it is too emerald-like, giving people a sense of dishonesty.

After taking the things, Chen Manfei wanted to go out. This Nanyang Cui ornament was not something she was satisfied with, and she still wanted to continue shopping.

"Wait, Sister Chen!" Wang Haoming hurriedly stopped her, pointed to the stone sculpture with something in his stomach just now and asked, "How much do you sell this for?"

"This is a stone statue of Maitreya Buddha from the Southern and Northern Dynasties. If I want it, I only need [-]!"

The stall owner immediately smiled and said to Wang Haoming, this stone carving is really an old object, but it is far from as old as the stall owner said.

"Ten thousand? You grab it!" Before Wang Haoming could say anything, Chen Manfei had already rushed over.

"Miss, don't break the rules!" The stall owner's face changed faster than turning the pages of a book, and he immediately looked dissatisfied.

Antique stores do have their own rules. When others are looking at something, you can’t talk nonsense, and you can’t bid for it. You can only look at it and talk after others have finished watching it.

Although Wang Haoming didn't pick up the stone carving, he had already asked for the price, which meant that the business had started. That's why the stall owner said that to Chen Manfei.

"Rules? He's my younger brother, so I don't need you to tell me the rules!" Chen Manfei snorted immediately.

The stall owner rolled his eyes again, and his face suddenly turned into a bright smile: "So that's the case, I'm sorry, your brother has taken a fancy to this thing, and I'm not telling lies, this is a stone carving from the Republic of China period. The minimum is 1000 yuan!"

The rules are true, but they don't apply to anyone, not to a family, a family is equivalent to one person, so Chen Manfei has the right to speak here.

"Five hundred!" Chen Manfei directly counter-offered.

"Little aunt, don't be so cruel. I really don't want to lie. If you and your brother really want it, I'll give you [-]. The price can't be lower!"

The stall owner smiled wryly and spread his hands. His price was really reasonable. Chen Manfei hesitated for a moment and looked at Wang Haoming.
