Chapter 636

Professor Zhu then asked, "do beginners really have no chance to pick up the leak?"

"Yes, there must be!" Chu Chen said: "but for old players, the chance of picking up leaks is not high, and the chance for beginners to pick up leaks is very slim. Basically, those who step into this industry with such an idea will lose money. Just like the old saying goes, you can't walk even when you walk. You just want to run. Can you keep from falling

Professor Zhu Gang nodded when he got to the porcelain. However, a friend of mine has just retired. Listening to people saying that antiques can make money, he stepped into this business. A few days ago, he told me that he spent 20000 yuan on a blue and white VAT, which was appraised to be worth 100000. "

"At that time, he was very excited to tell me that it was easy to make money from antiques. He also wanted to persuade me to buy antiques, saying that I would make a lot of money. At that time, I felt a little suspicious. I'll talk about it in two days. Doctor Chu, is this possible? "

After listening to Professor Zhu's story, Chu Chen's first reaction was that Professor Zhu's friend might have been cheated by others. He shook his head and said, "it's true that it's possible for a new entrant to pick up a leak, but as I said just now, if it's really easy to pick up an antique and make a lot of money, there's no peddler with a stall! So I think your friend is very likely to be cheated by others. "

"Cheated?" Professor Zhu was surprised.

Chu Chen nodded: "yes, in the field of antiques, it's all up to him to buy things. Even if things are fake, after you buy them, the seller can not return them."

"Ah! Is there no one in charge? " Professor Zhu's expression seems a little inconceivable.

"What's the matter?" Chuchen said with a smile: "for example, let's take this statue as an example. When it was sold, I didn't say what year it was, just that it was an old thing, right? When you buy it, you feel that you have not achieved your wish. If you want to return it to me, you can't find any suitable reason. "

"In addition, many sellers in our business like to tell stories. Or take this statue as an example, I said it was handed down by my family. Who used it before, and it was hard to save it during the Anti Japanese war. Anyway, as vivid as it is, how vivid it is. But who knows whether the story is true or false?"

"If someone believes it, buys it and goes home to see if it's a fake, what's the reason for you to return it? It's influenced by my story. All I have to say is that I didn't force you to buy it. You want to buy it yourself. What's the matter with me and what else can you say? "

"This..." Hearing this, Professor Zhu did not know what to say.

Chuchen chuckled and said, "so if you want to enter our business, you must learn first. Only when you shine your eyes with knowledge, you won't be cheated. I think you'd better advise your friend not to fall too deep. If he needs anything, he can come to my shop. We can help him identify the authenticity of things. "

With that, he took out his own business card and handed it to Professor Zhu.

"Well!" Professor Zhu nodded and took Chu Chen's business card: "I will persuade him about this."

"Professor Zhu, how do you plan to deal with this bamboo statue?" Chu Chen asked.

"Of course, it should be returned to the patient's family." Professor Zhu naturally said: "why, do you have any idea?"

"Yes Chu Chen nodded and said, "to tell you the truth, I'm going to Jinling in a few days to celebrate an old man's birthday. I'm about to lack a birthday present. I think this statue is quite suitable, so I want to buy it."

"Oh! That's it

Professor Zhu thought about it and said, "the most important thing is to see the other party's opinions. I'll call the patient's family members later, and then you can discuss with them. Of course, I'll also help you to beat the drum."

"Thank you first!" Hearing this, chuchen immediately expressed his thanks with a smile.

Professor Zhu waved his hand with a smile: "what's the matter? I also want to thank you for helping me identify it! By the way, I remember it costs to identify antiques... "

"What you said, I'm just raising a finger. How can I ask for your money?" Chu Chen quickly shook his head.

Professor Zhu said with a smile: "in this case, it's time for lunch. I'll invite you to the canteen for a meal and wait for the patient's family. Do you mind?"

Chuchen smiles and shakes his head: "how can I mind..."

After dinner, tea and chatting, the family member of the patient mentioned by Professor Zhu came.

This man's surname is Niu. In fact, he didn't want to come. It's not that he can't see it for 300000 or 400000. The main reason is that it's too fake. How could the statue he used to play with when he was a child be worth so much money? So, when he received the call, the first thought he had was not to believe it.

However, Professor Zhu vowed to come, and he had to come. When he came, he kept muttering that Professor Zhu was too rigid, but it was a statue of hundreds and thousands at most. Why not take it away?Of course, this kind of words, Mr. Niu only dared to mutter in his heart. When he saw Professor Zhu himself, he was not so enthusiastic.

After the two sides introduced each other, Chu Chen went directly to the main topic: "Mr. Niu, is this statue yours?"

"It was originally mine. I gave it to Professor Zhu a few days ago." Mr. Niu said with a smile.

Professor Zhu waved his hand and said, "if I accept such a valuable thing, it will not make me make a mistake. I dare not accept it!"

Mr. Niu shook his head: "Hey! Although it was handed down by my ancestors, it's made of bamboo. What's its value? "

"Mr. Niu, you are really wrong. This bamboo statue is really valuable."

Chu Chen said, "now I just want to ask you, do you want to sell this bamboo statue?"

"Ah, do you really want to buy it?" Mr. Niu was surprised when he heard what Chu Chen said. Even though he was so suspicious before, he didn't seem to be joking when he saw Chu Chen. He also knew that what Professor Zhu said on the phone might be true, which made his brain confused immediately.

"Mr. Niu, how could I lie to you about this?" Chu Chen's tone was very positive.

Mr. Niu came back and asked with an incredible look: "it's really like what Professor Zhu said on the phone. Can it be worth three or four hundred thousand?"

Chu Chen said, "yes! To be exact, the market value should be between 350000 and 400000. I wonder if you'll sell it or not? "

"This..." Mr. Niu hesitated immediately. Now that he knew that this unimportant thing was really valuable, as a citizen, he also had a small calculation in his heart. First of all, he thought, is the value of this thing really like what Chu Chen said? Will it be more expensive?

Seeing Mr. Niu's hesitation, Professor Zhu reminded him: "Mr. Niu, Dr. Chu is not only good at medicine, but also a disciple of Liu Zhi and Liu Lao. This statue was identified by him before."

After listening to Professor Zhu's remarks, Mr. Niu immediately realized that he had been able to reap so much money, which was an unexpected joy. If it wasn't for Professor Zhu's high moral integrity, he would not have this unexpected income. In this way, how could he be greedy again?

Thinking of this, Mr. Niu quickly said: "I sold this thing! As for the price, Dr. Chu, you can give me as much as you like! "

"Four hundred thousand, then!" Chu Chen said directly that after all, he wanted to buy the statue. If he bought it, it would be less.

"Don't you hit me in the face? If it wasn't for Dr. Chu, I wouldn't have this unexpected income. Let's count it as three hundred and fifty thousand! "

Mr. Niu is not a fool. If he really gets 400000 yuan, it will certainly give people the impression of loving money. If he is in front of other people, it doesn't matter. But the key is that Professor Zhu is also present. Professor Zhu is a famous pediatrician in China. If he leaves a bad impression, if he has something to ask for in the future, will others help you?

"No, I'll take advantage of you. Well, I'm going to give it away when I buy it. Even if it's 390000, I'll take advantage of you. What do you think?"

In fact, in this case, Chu Chen really wants to buy it for 400000 yuan. If it's cheap, it's also a favor.

Mr. Niu was also relieved to hear Chu Chen say so. You know, forty thousand is a lot of money for him, but he did a lot of work, and finally agreed.

There are many banks in front of the hospital. After they signed an agreement with Professor Zhu, they went to the bank to transfer money and complete the transaction. Then Chu Chen handed his business card to Mr. Niu and told him that if there was anything about antiques, they could go to the shop to find him. Then they separated.

Coming out of the bank, Chu Chen drives home. As soon as he opens the door, he receives a call from Duan Kun.

"Brother Chen, Zhenzhen and I are already in XX hotel. If you have time, come here!"

"When did you come here?" Chu Chen asked.

"At noon, we didn't call to tell you because we were afraid of delaying your meal." Duan Kun said with a smile.

"You guys, what's the convenience? You call me earlier and tell me that I won't pick you up at the airport! Well, you can wait for me in the hotel. It happens that I have my silver needle with me. By the way, I'll do acupuncture for Zhenzhen. "

"Hey hey, OK, brother Chen, we'll give you our itinerary in these days..."

After hanging up, chuchen smiles and shakes his head, then drives to the hotel that Duan Kun said.

Speaking of all, Duan Kun and Zhenzhen had already come to the capital the year before last, but it was just the time for the Chinese new year, and Chu Chen had to carve jadeite again, so after a treatment, they didn't have time to accompany them. This time, they just made up for it.
