City: Develop Skills And Make Money By Setting Up A Stall With Qingmei
Chapter 48: I’M Not Afraid That You’Ll Figure It Out, But I’M Afraid That You Won’T Dare To Buy It!
After having a meal at a restaurant at noon and taking a short rest, Xiao Ya and Lin Hao set out for Jiasheng Market.
Standing at the gate of Jiasheng Antique Market, several expert professors had serious expressions on their faces.
If Lin Hao hadn't spoken in the morning, they wouldn't have known that they had suffered a loss and been fooled. Now everyone was very excited. If they bought fakes again in the afternoon, their professor's reputation would be ruined. .
"lets go!"
Several professors nodded to each other and left separately.
Their goal is to find as many authentic products as possible, and it is much more efficient to act separately than to crowd together.
"Well, Lin Hao, Mr. Xiao, I will go shopping with you." Mr. Wang said with a smile without leaving.
Mr. Wang also knows that Lin Hao has such a strong eye for treasures, and you will never suffer any loss if you follow him.
The three people walked into the antique market. Looking around, they saw rows of shops lined with red bricks and blue tiles. The antique market itself revealed its antique flavor.
"Tongbao Pavilion?"
Lin Hao randomly chose an antique store and walked in.
"Welcome, welcome to the door. You can pick something you like before leaving." The owner of this antique shop is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a mustache and a mustache, and he looks like a big catfish.
However, although his appearance is not very good, the boss still has quite a temperament. He wears a golden mandarin jacket and has a hand full of accessories. He has an aura of wealth. This kind of temperament is very popular among customers who come to the antique store to hunt for treasures. The eyes looked happy.
Lin Hao looked around. Lao Han's kind of street stall antiques just put a piece of red cloth randomly, piled things on the ground, and started selling them. But in this kind of high-end antique shop, every antique is placed in a glass cover. It can be said that the care is extremely careful.
I’m not afraid that you’ll see how it works, but I’m afraid that you won’t dare to buy it!
An antique store like this is essentially a game between the boss and the customers. If the boss misjudges the antique, but the customer sees it correctly, he will pick it up. The boss knows it is a fake, but the customer thinks it is genuine, so it is inevitable that he will be cheated.
However, these antique shop owners will never take the initiative to deceive customers, nor will they tell whether their items are genuine or fake. Anyone who wishes will take the bait.
Lin Hao looked at the rows of antiques carefully, but had no intention of buying them.
Mr. Wang stood in front of a glass bottle and looked at it for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Boss, can you take out this enamelware and take a look?"
What Mr. Wang was interested in was a Western enamel vessel about thirteen inches high, with a rose pattern painted on it, which looked very exquisite.
The owner of the antique shop smiled and said nothing. He put on his gloves and carefully took out the enamelware and placed it on the table.
After the owner of the antique shop placed the enamelware firmly, Mr. Wang reached out and took the enamelware in his hand and observed it carefully.
This is an unwritten rule in the antique world. For fragile items such as enamelware, sellers and buyers cannot hand each other directly. It is difficult to define the liability if it is dropped midway.
Therefore, the seller usually takes it out and puts it firmly before the buyer picks it up. In this way, even if it accidentally breaks, it will be clear who is responsible.
Mr. Wang looked at the enamelware for a long time, took a deep breath, made up his mind and was about to speak, but Lin Hao patted him on the shoulder and shook his head slightly at Mr. Wang.
Mr. Wang was stunned, and then he carefully observed the enamelware. With the false idea of finding trouble, Mr. Wang quickly discovered several flaws in the enamelware.
One is that there is slight color bleeding at the mouth of the bottle, and there are a few small scratches on the enamel.
You must know that the texture of real enamelware is very hard and will hardly leave such scratches on the bottle. In other words, the enamelware that Mr. Wang is interested in is probably fake.
Mr. Wang secretly felt ashamed and hurriedly took back Boss Rang's enamelware.
"Boss, how can I sell this thing?"
After a while, Lin Hao also saw something right.
"Lin Hao is going to take action?"
Hearing that Lin Hao was interested in buying, Xiao Ya and Mr. Wang both approached.
What Lin Hao is interested in is a wooden Arhat statue, the size of a fist, placed in the center of the Tongbao Pavilion, supported by a golden base, and illuminated by a large glass bottle outside, with a circle surrounding it. Guardrail.
The boss moved his fat body, walked slowly to Lin Hao's side, patted the glass bottle, "This thing costs 35 million!"
Hearing the price, Mr. Wang opened his eyelids and squinted his eyes to carefully observe the Arhat statue. It was beautifully carved, with a thick layer of patina on the outside, and there were slight signs of weathering on the corners.
"This is definitely an old object, probably three to four hundred years old!"
"This should be the treasure of the store. The price is just a false price. In fact, it is not for takeout." Xiao Ya said.
"This beauty knows her stuff." The antique shop owner smiled.
In every shop in Jiasheng Market, there is almost such a treasure, which is an antique that has been identified as genuine and placed in the antique shop. It can be regarded as the golden signboard of every antique shop.
Displaying such a treasure in the store actually tells buyers that there may be other genuine products in the store, which is an excellent marketing tool.
"This Arhat seems to have been handed down from the Song Dynasty. It is indeed the calming treasure of our Tongbao Pavilion." The owner of the antique shop said.
"It is indeed a good thing." Mr. Wang pushed his eyes and sighed.
"Amitabha!" Xiao Ya clasped her hands together and gave a slight salute to the Arhat statue. Such old objects might have spirituality.
This Arhat looks like a genuine product, so it is impossible to buy it as a pick-up. Lin Hao, Wang Lao, Xiao Ya and others walked around again and walked out of Tongbao Pavilion.
Picking out leaks cannot be achieved by visiting the store once or twice. Even if you have a pair of sharp eyes that can tell the authenticity, you still have to be lucky enough to come across the genuine product.
After visiting three more stores, Lin Hao still found nothing. However, as soon as he came out of a store, there was a commotion in front of him.
I saw people crowding around the door of an antique shop, and there were constant quarrels coming from inside the shop.
"What's going on?" Xiao Ya was a little curious.
"I heard that someone threw this Jiubao Pavilion's treasure, and there was a noise inside!"
"I'll go, this is a big deal, go take a look!"
Several passers-by came from behind Lin Hao and others, and the sound of conversation reached the ears of Lin Hao, Xiao Ya and others.
The treasure of the store was dropped?
This is a big deal!
In this Jiasheng antique market, which treasure is not worth tens of millions?
"Let's go take a look!"
Xiao Ya was also a little curious about what was going on and said.
