Chapter 182

After lunch, Zheng Yuan and Ren Yi come back to the antique street.

They had only 50 yuan, so they had to walk around in front of the stall.

After wandering for a while, Zheng Yuan stopped in front of a small stall.

"Handsome, what can I do for you? The things I have here are all bought from the captain. They are all real antiques, and the price is very reasonable. Many people have found a leak from me. "

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his forties. He looks a little obscene.

But it's very eloquent.

If it is the first time to pick up the leak rookie, it is estimated that he will be coaxed around.

Zheng Yuan carefully looked at the antiques on the stand, and finally picked up a humble stone mouse, which was a little rough and had broken its tail.

Generally, people with a little vision will not buy this.

For one thing, it's not pleasant.

Secondly, the manufacture is a little crude, so even if it is an antique, it has no collection value.

"Boss, how much is this stone mouse?" Zheng Yuan asked.

The stall owner praised: "this handsome guy, you are so insightful. It's a thing of the Ming Dynasty. It's a real antique..."

Zheng Yuan a little impatient way: "less nonsense, give a real price directly."

The stall owner held out five fingers.

Zheng Yuan said, "five yuan? OK, I'll take it."

Said, ready to pay.

The stall owner glared and said, "five yuan? Handsome guy, have you got it wrong? What can you buy for five yuan now? I said five hundred. "

Zheng Yuan put the stone mouse down and said with white eyes, "then you can keep it for yourself and enjoy it slowly. Will I buy this broken thing for 500 yuan? I can get good things at any time for 500 yuan. You really think of me as your father. If you want to pit me, you can pit me. "

Stall owner's face embarrassed color: "it seems that the handsome guy is also an expert."

Zheng Yuan said: "I don't want to waste too much time, buy it now, 30 yuan."

The stall owner was a little embarrassed and said, "30 yuan is too little. I spent more than 200 yuan to collect it. However, for your sake, I'll make you a friend. 200 yuan. I'll sell it to you at the current price."

Zheng Yuan sighed: "boss, I'm really not your father. I can only give 50 at most. If I don't sell it, I'll leave."

Then he stood up and prepared to leave.

Stall owner also quickly stood up, said: "wait a minute, handsome man, 50 on 50, when a city, make a friend."

The stone mouse came with him when he and a grave robber bought bronze coins.

You can earn 50 yuan, so how can you miss it for nothing.

So Zheng Yuan bought the stone mouse for 50 yuan.

When he came to a remote place, Ren Yi couldn't help asking, "Zheng Yuan, this stone mouse is so rough. Is it really worth 50 yuan?"

Zheng Yuan said with a mysterious smile: "don't worry, it's worth it."

Say, force a pinch, will stone mouse to crush.

There was an old gold coin in it.

Ren Yi was overjoyed: "is this gold?"

Zheng Yuan said: "yes, look at the quality and age, at least 3000 yuan can be sold, so we also picked up a good leak."

Ren Yi admired Zheng Yuan to the extreme and said, "Zheng Yuan, you are so powerful. How do you know there are gold coins in the stone mouse?"

Zheng Yuan said: "this involves professional issues. I have something to say. I'll talk to you later. Now let's go to an antique shop first

After a while, they came to an antique shop.

Finally, they sold it for 3500 yuan.

When he saw that his money had changed from 50 yuan to 35 yuan, Ren Yi was very happy.

He finally knew why so many people came to pick up the leak.

If you are lucky, you will make a profit.

Zheng Yuan said, "now let's go to Yipin antique shop to see if we can find a big leak."

Ren Yi said, "Zheng Yuan, that shop is too dark. Let's not buy it there."

Zheng Yuan insidious smile: "I always eat black, he pit you, we have no reason not to pit him."Ren Yi said with a smile, "OK."

Soon, the two of them came to an antique shop.

"What can I do for you, gentlemen?" The owner of the antique shop welcomed him.

Zheng Yuan said, "look around."

"Well, this gentleman looks familiar. Didn't you buy an ancient jade from me before? Have you made a lot of money? " Looking at Ren Yi, the owner of the antique shop said very friendly.

Ren Yi nodded and said solemnly, "yes, I've made 3000 yuan, so I'll pick up the big leak again."

The owner of the antique shop was very surprised: "it's just a fake. Did he really make money?"

However, he said quietly: "ha ha, congratulations. I'll tell you what I have here is very valuable. By the way, I just bought an authentic ancient painting by Tang Bohu. Do you want to have a look? "

Zheng Yuan nodded and said, "it's just that I'm interested in ancient paintings recently. Let's have a look at them. If the price is right, we'll buy them."

Not long after, the owner of the antique shop took an ancient painting.

Zheng Yuan saw that it was just a simulation.

However, the level of imitation is very high, almost to the extent that the fake is confused with the real.

Generally, only professionals can identify it.

Zheng Yuan took the ancient painting, looked at it, and then asked, "boss, how much is this painting?"

The owner of the antique shop held out a finger: "at least ten thousand, the price is absolutely fair."

Zheng Yuan disdains a way: "1000 I owe expensive, return 10000."

He really wants to blow the goods away.

Even if you look down on people, you can't look down on them.

If it's really Tang Bohu's real work, it will cost at least 100000 yuan. Will you sell it for 10000 yuan?

I really think of them as rookies who don't know anything.

The antique shop said: "little brother, it's not interesting for you to say that. What kind of ancient paintings can you buy for 1000 yuan now? This is the authentic work of Tang Bohu. In other places, it's at least 100000 yuan. I'll give you a discount because I'm looking at two old customers. If it's someone else, I don't charge him 80000 yuan or at least 50000 yuan. "

Zheng Yuan sighed: "boss, I don't mind if you want to pit others, but if you want to pit me, I'm afraid it's not so easy. It's not an authentic work at all, but a copy by a painter of the Republic of China. Although it's true enough, it has one or two defects."

As he spoke, he pointed out the defects in the painting.

The owner of the antique shop was very embarrassed.

He could see these two defects for a long time.

I cheated Zheng Yuan and Ren Yi that they were rookies and had a good pit, but I didn't expect to let them see it.

However, he was very cheeky. He immediately regained his cool and said, "it turns out that my little brother is an expert. I'm disrespectful."

Zheng Yuan hummed coldly: "just know, give me a real price."

The owner of the antique shop said: "although the painting is copied, it has a high degree of simulation and good painting skills, so it has a great collection value. At least 3000 yuan, not a cent less."

Zheng Yuan said: "I just want to buy it because I can copy it well, but I only give one thousand."

"A thousand is too little, at least two thousand." Said the owner of the antique shop.

"Two thousand is too expensive. Let's make it one step, one thousand five." Zheng Yuan took a step back.

The owner of the antique shop thought, "OK, one thousand five is one thousand five, just make a friend."

He bought this painting from a middle-aged woman who was in urgent need of money for more than 200 yuan in the morning, so he made a small profit by selling it for 1500 yuan.
