Chapter 196 Treasure Recognition

At this time, about thirty people entered this oddity shop where there was an event.

The store is twice as wide as what you see from the outside. After all, it is a virtual space, and it feels like Sumeru accepts Meson. In the middle of the store hall, there is a circle of display cabinets displaying a variety of items. Each item is blocked by a virtual energy shield.

According to the store manager, the items on the display cabinets in this circle are the newly arrived antiques he just mentioned.

Every time this shop purchases a large quantity of items from the adventure group, it will conduct a round of sales first after roughly appraising the items, and finally sell the remaining items before selecting items that are suspected to be of high value and entrusting an appraiser to appraise them, or by themselves. The subordinate appraisers appraised it, attached the conclusion, repriced it, and put it in other showcases for sale.

Of course, this is just the store's statement. Not many people believe this is true. People generally think: If I were the seller, I would appraise it first, and then put the low-value items on this display cabinet, lying about not appraising it.

At this time, someone raised this suspicion. Ling Qi looked around and saw the man holding the antique teapot.

The person in charge of the store smiled bitterly: "This is indeed the subconscious thought of many people, but in fact, if you are the seller, if you do it once or twice, you will not do it again."

"Blind selling is the only way to ensure that we don't lose money. Because the quantity is large, we usually price by pile when we buy it. You can't guarantee whether there are things mixed in by the adventure group later. And appraisers of different levels will do the appraisal. There is a minimum price, and we cannot afford to support a senior appraiser, and even if we appraise it ourselves, our ability is limited. If we entrust all appraisals and then sell them, the income from the sales may not even be enough to pay the appraisal fee."

"In this way, we don't know if you mixed some ordinary items into it?" the woman holding the compass fragment muttered.

The person in charge glanced at the compass in her arms and said with a smile: "So everyone in this business must have their own vision. In fact, there is a huge element of gambling here."

Ling Qi took the opportunity to come to the woman and asked her: "Sister, this compass looks heavy, does it weigh several kilograms?" As he spoke, without waiting for the other party to react, his right hand quickly touched the compass in front of her. .

However, there is no prompt from the captain system.

Not actively prompting it means that in its judgment, no matter how long the history of this thing is, it is of no use to Ling Qi.

Not actively prompting does not mean that Ling Qi cannot know the information of the item, otherwise he would not be able to conduct appraisal. The captain's system interacted very passively, which he had already experienced, so he directly asked the captain's system: "What is this?"

"The outer disk structure of the compass from 2,500 years ago, the inner disk is missing, and the pointer is missing... it has no practical value."

Ling Qi didn't feel disappointed either. If anything was a treasure, then it would be a waste.

But why does the surrounding area seem so quiet and weird? Ling Qi looked around and retracted his paws in embarrassment under the woman's murderous eyes.

Everyone stared at him with strange eyes. Someone glanced at the woman's chest and said with an ambiguous smile: "Little brother, you have good taste!"

Depend on! Ling Qi almost raised her middle finger to him.

He diverted everyone's attention, pointed at an object on the display cabinet with a strange style and a material that looked like iron but not iron, and said: "Shopkeeper, is this an antique knife? Take it out and let me take a look."

The store manager's forehead jumped and he said quietly: "Little brother, do you really not know the rules? This is a blind sale. You can only look at it. It tests your eyesight and cannot be used. Unless you really want to buy it."

Ling Qi was stunned, how could I know if it was useful if I didn't get started with it? How to carry out my Taobao missing plan?

Seeing that he really didn't know, the person in charge explained: "This is to prevent some appraisers from pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, taking away all the good things and causing unfairness to other customers."

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be deliberately trying to embarrass him, and that many people around him looked like they were too uneducated to be around him, Ling Qi gave up the idea of ​​finding treasures from these items.

However, the woman holding the compass kindly helped him out, interrupting and saying: "Children just like knives and guns like this, what use can it be? And even if it is really an antique knife, it is black and not sharp at all. You can’t just say both, but you’re even asking for 5 star coins!”

At this time, the man in the store was not happy, and his face darkened, and he said: "Madam, please be careful when speaking. Such words will affect our image and sales work. This is an energy weapon, and it is not what it looks like on the surface. Sharp or not.”

"No, I've seen energy knives before. There isn't even an activated energy switch on it. The handle is normal, but it also has a half-foot-long blade... Isn't it just a child's toy?" Someone else said Raise your concerns regardless of the repercussions.

The face of the person in charge of the store turned a little dark. He hated these unruly guys the most. He didn't care about offending people at all, but he couldn't do anything to them in the Star Network space.

Fortunately, he also had someone to help him. A middle-aged man with empty hands but a strong interest in viewing the items on the display cabinet said without raising his head:

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. The more advanced an energy weapon is, the less likely it is to have an energy switch, because there is no energy box on it at all. It uses the cultivator's own energy output, which is different from ordinary standard energy weapons."

Many people's expressions changed. So, this thing might really be a treasure. People usually can only see some ordinary standard energy swords on the Internet. Legendary high-end products like this rarely appear, and they are expensive but not marketable, so they have not imagined them in this aspect.

Ling Qi twitched the corner of his mouth, even more unconvinced that this was a real high-level energy knife.

The value of this thing is too high. If there is even a slight possibility, no matter how high the appraisal fee is, the seller will appraise it first. Even if the adventure group really found it, the adventure group themselves would find someone to identify it first.

The fact that it appears here itself shows that there is something wrong with it.

It can't even be a damaged genuine product, because the material of this energy weapon is above the legendary level. Even if it is damaged, it is still worth a lot of money. How can it be "living in the world".

However, Ling Qi's purpose of diverting attention was achieved. Seeing that everyone was looking at the items on the display cabinet through the energy shield, Ling Qi himself also strolled around the display cabinet, stopping to watch from time to time.

For those "antiques" such as utensils and obvious technological products, he basically passed them by without paying much attention. He mainly focuses on things like jade, jewelry and handicrafts.

"The quality looks good, but it's a pity that I can't get started with it. It would be great if I could directly see the attribute information of these items without touching them!" Ling Qi muttered in her heart.

He concentrated on his eyesight and tried to find something different through the skill of "seeing everything clearly". But after staring at dozens of items continuously until Ling Qi's eyes turned sour, he still found nothing.

He rubbed his eyes and turned around helplessly.

Just when Ling Qi thought the skill was ineffective, out of the corner of his eye he saw something different about the energy knife he was just talking about. He subconsciously looked at it and saw a layer of hazy light covering the energy knife. Although it was inconspicuous, it was real.

At the same time, the captain's system suddenly prompted: "The passive skill 'Knowing the Thing' has developed a new active effect 'Treasure Recognition'. When this skill effect is actively turned on, you can see the treasure light covering the treasure, thereby effectively identifying the treasure."

Damn it!

Ling Qi was a little disbelieving. He closed his eyes and relaxed for a while. Then he opened his eyes again and saw that the energy knife had become as ordinary as before. Concentrate again to activate the skill effect, and the layer of precious light appears again.

"Developed!"

Ling Qi quickly scanned the other display cabinets in the store, and then he knew that he was happy. In such a large store, there were countless items, but he only saw a few treasures.

This does not mean that other people’s things are not valuable. It depends on the perspective and values ​​​​from which to judge. The judgment standard of the captain system is obviously only valuable if it is useful to Ling Qi.

Just like the antique teapot in the man's hand, Ling Qi believed that it must be worthless when it was systematically appraised by the captain, but in the eyes of others it was extremely valuable.

"That's fine. Taobao is more efficient and targeted, but it just lacks a shortcut to get rich!"

Ling Qi took a closer look and found that several other items with treasure lights had been appraised and were placed in the treasure area. With his eyesight, he could see a series of zeros on the price on the light screen over there.

He decided to first take a look at the energy knife that he just thought was a fake. What was wrong with it? Are the adventure group and this store really so honest that they put it on the shelf for sale without authenticating it?
