My Side Job is a Trader

Zhang Xin asked: "Then why don't you let me continue to choose? You have so many copper coins here, it doesn't affect it at all?"

The stall owner went on to explain: "The reason why five emperors' coins can become five emperors' coins is because these five emperors belonged to prosperous times when they were in power. Apart from Fengshui factors, from the perspective of raw materials and craftsmanship, these five kinds of copper coins must be Better than other copper coins, so the condition looks very good.

I need to use these good-looking copper coins to be mixed in as a facade to attract customers. If you pick them up, where can I get enough five emperor coins in a short time? Brother, do you think this is the truth? ? "

Zhang Xin nodded to express his understanding, then glanced at the copper coins in his hand, and asked, "Boss, how many can I change? Now that I know the five emperors' coins, I want to make a set."

"You please!"

Zhang Xin replaced the spare Qianlong Tongbao with the missing Shunzhi Tongbao and Yongzheng Tongbao, so that he had a total of 20 copper coins in his hand, just enough to make up four sets of Five Emperors coins.

The stall owner watched Zhang Xin take out a few of the best copper coins from the pile of copper coins with great precision, and he was even more sure that the young man in front of him was not a ignorant person at all, and must have studied ancient coins.

According to the negotiated price of 50 yuan for a copper coin, Zhang Xin simply paid 1,000 yuan with his mobile phone, without haggling at all.

"Brother, if you want to collect money from the Great Five Emperors, then I suggest you go to the antique city next door, there are some serious antique businesses over there, unlike our small business here. "

Just as Zhang Xin collected the copper coins, he heard the stall owner talk about the Great Five Emperors’ coins. It happened that it was still early, so Zhang Xin thanked the stall owner and went directly to the antique city instead of rushing, but wandered around in the shed. stand up.

There were only a few stalls selling ancient coins, and there were two or three of them. Zhang Xin didn't feel the slightest coolness at all. After a closer look, these copper coins were also the year names of several emperors such as Kangxi Tongbao. , Zhang Xin couldn't help showing strange feelings, but he didn't expose the truth that these copper coins are all modern handicrafts.

Every business has its own rules, and the antique business does not guarantee its authenticity. Buying antiques is all about eyesight. The goods are paid for and delivered. After the transaction is completed, even if it is found to be a fake, you can only admit that you are unlucky. Can't accuse people of fraud.

Of course, some powerful antique shops will sell some real antiques that have been appraised by experts. If these antiques are found to be fake, you can bring the evidence and directly go to the shop to claim compensation.

Zhang Xin calmly put down the handicraft copper coins in his hand, then went to several other ancient coin stalls, and bought some genuine Five Emperor coins, including a few Song and Yuan Tongbao, of course, the price was slightly more expensive.

After seeing several ancient coin booths, Zhang Xin looked at other kinds of objects with great interest, such as porcelain.

Some porcelain is very beautiful, although it looks a little old, but when Zhang Xin passed it, he felt something was wrong.

Zhang Xin is also not sure why porcelain does not have a cool air in his hand. He guessed that as long as it is an antique or something, there will be a cool air. Although the conjecture was verified by ancient coins, it was changed to a different type. After that, I didn't feel it, so Zhang Xin was a little suspicious. Could it be that only ancient coins have a cool air?

Zhang Xin closed his eyes, trying to clear his mind. At this moment, his celestial eyes activated inadvertently. Through the celestial eyes, seeing these things was slightly different from the naked eyes.

In addition to being able to see each item carefully, the sky eye can also observe a layer of halo attached to the surface of the object.

There are almost no halos on the surface of many things, but there are also a few things on the booth with a halo several centimeters thick on the surface.

Of course, the blue and white porcelain desk vase Zhang Xin held didn't have any halos either.

Opening his eyes and putting down the vase gently, Zhang Xin picked up the objects with halos and inspected them. One was a snuff bottle, and it could be seen that the pattern of sending happiness from the five blessings painted inside was very exquisite.

A bluish-white jade wrench with some scratches on the surface.

Another thing turned out to be a cricket jar for crickets.

What Zhang Xin didn't notice was that when he picked up these items, the stall owner's eyes trembled. lay down.

The boss knew in his heart that his booth was basically handicrafts, and there were only a few genuine ones, which were the ones that Zhang Xin took to observe, and these were the ones he used to support the facade.

Of course, if Zhang Xin really gives the corresponding price, he can only sell it, but then he needs to find a few more old items to put in. After all, it is claimed to be selling antiques. If there is really no genuine item, then I can't justify it.

When Zhang Xin looked at these items, he actually saw the expression on the boss's face, and he naturally understood that these items were real antiques.

After Zhang Xin put down his things, he said, "These things are good."

The boss smiled and said: "Come on, you are a real player, you invited me."

What the boss meant was that the temple here is small, and there are only a few real things here. If Zhang Xin still wants to broaden his horizons, he should go elsewhere.

Zhang Xin left the booth without saying anything.

Now Zhang Xin knows the serious use of the sky eye, instead of using the sky eye to see through women's clothes like before. The key is that he can only see the part, not the whole through the clothes.

Every time Zhang Xin came to a booth, Zhang Xin would close his eyes and observe with his heavenly eyes. After observing several booths in a row, Zhang Xin found that most of the booths were similar, only a few real antiques supported the scene, and the rest were basically handicrafts .

Zhang Xin just felt a little boring, so he simply walked to the antique city next door.

But just as he was about to leave the shed where the stall was set up, Zhang Xin saw an object exuding an aura of two or three meters from the edge with his sky eyes.

Zhang Xin looked towards the center of the aura, and found that it was a dark inkstone, inconspicuous among a pile of objects.

Zhang Xin inspected it with the eyes of the sky. Except for this inkstone, several other genuine antiques with halos were placed in the most conspicuous places intentionally or unintentionally by the stall owner, so Zhang Xin can be sure that the boss did not notice this piece. The real value of the inkstone.

Like everyone else, Zhang Xin squatted in front of the booth and pretended to pick one by one, and then pretended to be interested in a certain object, and then picked it up to observe.

Of course, Zhang Xin didn't let go of those genuine antiques, but they were all put back in place soon.

After looking at it for a while, Zhang Xin showed a look of surprise when he saw the inkstone, took out the inkstone from a pile of items, and asked the stall owner, "Boss, how do you sell this inkstone?"

The stall owner drew the character "eight" with his hand, and Zhang Xin said deliberately, "Eighty?"

Seeing this, the stall owner had no choice but to say: "This inkstone sells for eight thousand!"

After hearing this, Zhang Xin put the inkstone back directly, stood up without saying a word, and was about to leave.

Zhang Xin knew that the stall owner would definitely stop him. Zhang Xin learned this by observing the behavior of some buyers in the market, which made it easier to bargain.

Although Zhang Xin is not short of this amount of money, being able to buy something of high value with relatively low money gives people a different sense of accomplishment.

"Boss, you can bargain if you think it's too much. There's no need to turn around and leave."

Zhang Xin stopped and said, "Boss, your price is too outrageous. You can only see this, this, this, and this at your booth. Are you sure you are not kidding me?"

The stall owner found out that Zhang Xin had ordered all the genuine products, and knew that Zhang Xin was not a rookie who knew nothing, and his level was not low.

So he compromised and said: "In business, I ask for a price, and you pay back the money on the spot. I made an offer, so you have to say a price, right? You say one, as long as it is suitable, I will sell it."

Zhang Xin said uncertainly, "Then one hundred yuan?"

"Deal! You take the things, please pay the money."
