The girl stopped immediately and said anxiously, "boss, this is our family heirloom. How can you sell 500? Too few! "
The young man also said, "yes, boss, 500 yuan is too little. Look at this bottle, although it's not very beautiful, it's definitely antique. Why How can it be worth tens of thousands? "
"Tens of thousands?" The boss immediately seemed to have been trampled on the tail, and called out in a sharp voice: "then you can take this thing to someone else's house as soon as possible. You still want to sell it for tens of thousands of dollars. Are you crazy about money? I'll show you five hundred. You two are so pitiful. Otherwise, I don't want a cent of it. "
The two children are not very old. They look like they are in the fourteenth five year plan. They are pure in mind. What are the opponents of these profiteers? Scared by the boss, my mind is on my face.
"Brother, what should I do? Mom is still waiting for money to do the operation." The girl was worried and asked the boy around her.
As soon as the young man gritted his teeth, he begged to the boss: "boss, we really need money urgently. Please, can you give us more?"
"Well..." The boss sighed a long time and said in great embarrassment, "your broken bottle is really worthless, but I have a good heart. Look at your two children. I'll give you fifteen. First of all, it's not the money for the bottle. It's only given to you because of your pity. If you say this bottle, it's not worth 500 yuan! "
"Fifteen?" Two people look at each other, obviously not satisfied with the price.
This bottle was handed down from their ancestors. My grandmother had told them that when the Republic of China was in force, people paid 1000 yuan to buy the bottle. At that time, a thousand dollars was equivalent to 30000 to 50000 yuan now. But now the boss only gives them 1500 yuan, which is too little.
"Brother, why don't we go to someone else's house?" The girl hesitated to say.
The boy thought it was too. They didn't know what was going on, but it was not a bad thing to see a few more houses. So he said to the boss, "excuse me, boss, let's go to someone else's house first."
The boss said with a smile, "OK, it's good for you to see more."
Brother and sister are very happy to see that the boss is not hard for them. They think the boss is a good man.
But as soon as they were about to leave, the boss added, "but I can tell you, I'll give you fifteen. That's to take care of you. This bottle is not worth the price at all. Now that you're gone, go to someone else's house. No matter how much money other people give you, it doesn't matter to me. When you come back again, I can't give you fifteen, not even five hundred. At most, it's the value of the bottle itself, 200 yuan. "
"Ah?" The two brothers and sisters were very anxious when they heard this. They were going to see what other people's prices were. If they were not as high as his, of course they would come back. But now the boss said that they would not give $1500 if they came back?
"How can you do this, boss?" The girl said angrily.
The boss disdained to smile: "I said, your bottle is not worth this price, the opportunity is not always available, do not grasp can be lost."
Brother and sister were biting their teeth and lips for half a day. At last, the boy decided to say, "well, I'll sell it to you. Fifteen."
"OK, I'll give you the money." The boss turned around with a sly smile on his face and handed them two fifteen. And the two children also left the porcelain bottle, some reluctant to leave.
Zhou Zhong has been quietly looking at the side, that porcelain vase is indeed an antique, a long time old, but The workmanship is really poor. It doesn't look like it's fired in a proper kiln. It's really worthless. At most, it's 10000 or 20000 yuan.
But what attracted Zhou's interest was that there was an extra layer in the porcelain! What's hidden in it!
Zhou Zhong didn't see through the scam of the boss. The main reason was that Zhou Zhong would make a big purchase in the store next week. He didn't want to arouse the boss's disgust so soon.
After the two children left, the boss noticed Zhou Zhong and asked with a smile, "what can I do for you, young man?"
Zhou took a look at the porcelain vase and said, "boss, this bottle is good. Sell it to me."
As soon as the boss's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that there would be a buyer for the bottle he had just collected. Happily, he stretched out a palm and said, "50000."
Shit! TM is really a unscrupulous businessman. He just collected it for fifteen thousand yuan, and then he will sell it for fifty thousand yuan?
Zhou Zhong sneered at the boss and said, "boss, I just saw that you spent 15 yuan to collect it from the two children's hands. Are you too fierce?"
The boss immediately said impolitely: "if you want to buy it, you can buy it. If you don't sell it, you can leave quickly. You care about the money I collect. If I like to sell it, I can sell it for more money!"
Zhou Zhong was not angry. He took a look at the pile of "junk" goods on the floor at the entrance of the antique shop and asked the boss, "boss, what are those?"
The boss turned his eyes and said, "those are all good things. Yesterday, a friend of mine just got it. It's absolutely fresh. If you want to buy it, I'll give you a good price."
It can be seen from the week that the boss sold those things as rags. He was completely fooling himself. But the boss got a word right. There's a lot of fun in it.Zhou Zhong thought about it for a while and asked the boss, "boss, look, if I don't know how much this porcelain vase is, then you can sell as much as you like. But I know that your porcelain bottle is 1500 yuan, and you sell it to me for 50000 yuan. If I buy it, won't I be wronged? Well, fifty thousand yuan for this porcelain vase, how about you give me some other trinkets? "
"For what?" The boss is very alert to ask, more than ten yuan of things he can not bring.
Zhou Zhongyi pointed to the pile of rags and said, "among those, can you let me choose five at random? I'll treat it as a small plaything. I'll give it to others. I know you don't want those things. "
The boss made a total. Yesterday, his friend had just unearthed some good things. He identified them and put all the valuable ones on the cupboard. Those rags were not very valuable, or they were simply "fakes". They were sold outside the store during the day, and they could not be sure that they would be able to get some wrong people who didn't understand anything.
Now that you want it in the middle of the week, you might as well give him a few. It's not worth it anyway. So the boss went over and picked out a few things that he thought could be worth hundreds of yuan. He left a pile of "fakes" and said to Zhou Zhong, "OK, you can choose the rest."
Zhou Zhong pretended to be unhappy and said: "boss, you are too chicken thief. I took all the fun away. Alas, you are really a profiteer."
Said Zhou Zhong seemingly at will in those "rags" picked up five kinds! These five are really good things, but the boss is more than two, even as rags to sell.
The boss is very happy at the moment. The broken bottle bought by 15 yuan was sold to 50 thousand yuan in Zhou Zhong, so he was not angry. Seeing Zhou Zhong picking up some "rags", he said with a smile, "OK, little brother, pay for it. Fifty thousand yuan. That five kinds of bottles will be yours."
"Deal." In the middle of the week, he paid 50000 yuan by credit card. Then he took the bottle and five "gifts" and went out of the antique shop with joy. Outside the shop, Zhou Zhong smashed the vase by the garbage can on the roadside.
