Chapter 687

Because shovels like to sell things to Meng Yixian, his business became more and more prosperous. In the early 1990s, he opened a shop, and no longer had to go through the storm like other vendors.

One day, Meng Yi went to the market for a walk to see what he wanted.

Just as he turned around and didn't find anything he liked, he was about to go back disappointed when he saw a stall owner in the corner taking a Su Zhong which looked more exquisite out of his box, and immediately became interested.

Feng mengsu asked, "can you show me the bell first?"

The stall owner was the one who sold the purple clay pot to Meng Yixian today. That day, he went late, so he didn't occupy a good position. Seeing that Meng Yixian fell in love with Su Zhong, who just came out, he quickly handed it over with a smile.

Su Zhong, also known as the "insert screen clock", is named because its appearance is similar to the insert screen in ancient China. After the end of the Qing Dynasty, Jiangsu, Huaiyang, Shanghai and other areas along the lower reaches of the Yangtze River were all made. In order to distinguish them from imported foreign clocks, Chinese people also called them "Ben clocks".

This clock is made of mahogany and carved with copper gilt flower pattern. It has a pleasant time telling sound, good appearance, fine workmanship and fine workmanship. Equipped with double movable base. Meng Yi looked at it carefully, and he was sure that it was a good thing.

"How much is it?" Met the thing that he likes, Meng Yi inquired about the price immediately first.

"One hundred and five!"

Because they are all old businesses, the stall owner gives the price he thinks in his heart.

At that time, it was in the mid-1990s, and there were not many things on the street. The reason why the price was set was that the stall owner also wanted to make use of Meng Yi's cheerfulness.

Meng Yixian thought to himself. At that time, as far as the appearance of the Su bell was concerned, seven hundred and eight hundred were still very easy to sell. When he met the right one, one thousand could be sold. So he said that the price of one hundred and five was really not expensive, so he immediately agreed and paid for it directly.

In the antique market, Meng Yixian is certainly not the only one who will pay attention to a good thing. When Meng Yixian observed the Su bell, some sharp eyed antique dealers had gathered around curiously. Some of them specialized in the clock business, when they saw such a thing missing, they felt like beating their chests and feet.

When Meng Yi paid in advance, the antique dealers were envious and envious. They came forward one after another to ask if they wanted to make a move.

Meng Yixian refused one by one, and then went out with the things in his heart. However, one of the antique dealers didn't give up. He followed Meng Yixian and still pestered to buy them.

This antique dealer is also a regular customer in Meng Yixian's shop. Besides doing business, he sometimes goes to his shop to have tea and chat. Therefore, although Meng Yixian felt impatient, he could not go too far.

"Shopkeeper Meng, you know that I like this kind of thing best. Please give it to me! Don't worry, let's talk about the price! "

Meng Yixian was bothered by him and thought, who is not selling anyway? If the price is right, sell it to him: "sell it to you, but at least 700!"

"Oh, shopkeeper Meng, we're old friends. You'll get five hundred and five more as soon as you change hands. It's easy to make some money! You see, it's not easy for me. Just add a little more! "

Meng Yi shook his head first and said, "no, if this thing sells well, it can be sold for 1000. I'll give you 700. It's because of our friendship for many years."

"Manager Meng, less. I think 300 is almost enough..."

After that, the antique dealer was entangled for a while, but Meng Yixian also held on to the price. At last, each of them stepped back, and Meng Yixian gave him 50.

In less than 15 minutes, Meng Yixian earned 500 yuan. He was very proud and happy. At the same time, he was very grateful to the stall owner.

One day later, it happened to be ghost market. When Meng Yi went to Taobao, he met the stall owner again. With gratitude, he spent 300 yuan to buy a penholder in the middle of Qing Dynasty.

At that time, it was dark, and he had friends around him. With the attitude of trusting the stall owner, he didn't see much, so he took the things back.

Back in his shop, when Meng Yi checked the pencil case first, he found that it was a fake. It was not worth money at all! This immediately made him angry. Oh! I made 500 yuan from you and bought 300 yuan from you with good intentions. How can you fool me with a fake? What do you think I am!

So, a few days later, when Meng Yixian met the stall owner again, he wanted to find out from him. He didn't want to return the goods at that time. He just wanted to tell the stall owner that I'm not a club!

However, when Meng Yi first came to the stall owner, the stall owner said in a strange tone:

"I heard that you made a lot of money on that Suzhong and sold it for 1000?"

Meng Yi first heard what the stall owner said, and immediately knew what was going on. He hated the antique dealer's nonsense. At the same time, he was also angry that the stall owner's friendship for so many years didn't believe him, so he regarded him as a club.So, he also impolitely said: "you listen to their nonsense! That thing was sold to the guy named Quan. It was only sold for 650 yuan. Later, I spent 300 yuan on buying a pen holder at your stall. It turned out to be a fake! "

Hearing Meng Yixian say so, the stall owner was also stunned at that time.

Because of this, there was no more trust between them. After that, Meng Yi didn't buy any goods from that stall. Of course, he didn't do any business with the nonsense antique dealer.

Meng Yi said with a bitter smile: "I really have some responsibilities for this matter. However, before this, I had done business with that guy many times. The money he made from me was not 10000, but thousands. Unexpectedly, because of some unreliable rumors, he even ignored the friendship!"

After listening to the cause and effect of the incident, Chu Chen secretly shook his head, saying that Meng Yixian did something wrong. Generally speaking, in the antique market, if something is found missing, it's better not to resell it immediately. In case of reselling, the seller will probably hear about it, or even hear the rumor that it has changed shape. He is not happy, and it's difficult to buy his things later.

But as Meng Yixian said, the stall owner's practice is too much. After all, both of them have been dealing with each other for several years, and Meng Yixian is quite straightforward. If there's anything, just explain it face to face or suggest it. Why sell a fake to him on purpose? It's very unkind to do so.

Zhu Dafu said with a smile: "Xiaomeng, you always like to go straight. A person with a small stomach like this will definitely take advantage of your character. I think the price of the things he sells to you is not low. So I think it's a good thing for you. "

Meng Yi thought about it first, and found that it was true. In the past, the things that the man sold to him were almost more expensive than those sold to him by other shovels. However, he didn't think much about it because the things made money. Now look back, that guy didn't treat him as a friend. No wonder he turned against him for hundreds of yuan.

"I don't want to talk about this. Lao Zhu, you're going to visit the three treasures hall this time, aren't you?"

"Can't I come and see you?" Zhu Dafu said with a smile.

Meng Yi waved his hand first and said, "come on, when you came to Jinling in January, I called you and wanted to invite you to dinner, but you didn't agree!"

Zhu Dafu spread out his hand: "at that time, there was something really happened in my shop. Otherwise, I'll treat you to dinner today. It's too late!"

Meng Yi turned his lips: "it's not easy for you to come to Jinling. I don't want to be a landlord. If you let others listen to my hospitality, you can't call me an Iron Rooster! If you say that again, be careful that I'm in a hurry with you! "

"Yes, yes! Let's invite the head office! "

Zhu Dafu shook his head with a smile, and then said, "but to be honest, I've come to you today, and I really have something to trouble you!"

"Look, it's coming!" Meng Yi first smiles and orders Zhu Dafu several times and asks, "what's the matter? I'll help if I can! "

"That's what happened..." Zhu Dafu made the matter simple.

After listening to Zhu Dafu's words, Meng Yixian was very envious: "ah, I also want to go to the old gentleman's place to pay homage to his birthday, but I didn't have that chance!"

Zhu Dafu said: "I really can't help you with this. Otherwise, I'll talk to the old man's son tomorrow. As for what the other party says, it depends on your luck."

"Thank you! Thank you

Meng Yi expressed his thanks to Zhu Dafu with a happy face.

Zhu Dafu waved his hand and said, "well, I'll do the same for you. If you really want to thank me, please help us find a suitable gift as soon as possible."

"Yes! I will try my best Speaking of this, Meng Yi first asked: "Mr. Qiao, I don't know how much price you want to prepare?"

"Two or three hundred thousand. It's better to be special." Qiao Qingtai said.

Meng Yi pondered for a while, and then said, "this is it! I really don't have this real thing at the same price, but I still have two things that I can't estimate. If I can be sure it's genuine, it's quite appropriate to use it as a gift. "

When Zhu Dafu heard the speech, he joked: "good boy, you are making us free palm masters!"

Meng Yi laughed and said, "I can give you three red envelopes then."

Zhu Dafu waved his hand with a smile: "come on, can I really ask for your red envelope? If you really want to, you can give Joe a discount later! "

"OK, it's not a matter of one sentence..."

With that, Meng Yi went to the inner room to get things. After a while, he came out with two brocade boxes. The brocade box is big and small. The small one is almost as big as a volleyball, while the big one is a painting and calligraphy box
