Chapter 59: Harmony Makes Money
The nervousness of the stall maker made Shen Qiang realize that this longevity lock must be a good thing, otherwise this old guy would not be able to pretend not to understand, squeeze the people who watched the longevity lock before, and then buy it himself.
Looking at the longevity lock with some nervousness, Shen Qiang used the technique of microscopic observation, and when the longevity lock was enlarged in his eyes, Shen Qiang immediately stopped the exercises.
The picture flashed in my head.
Shen Qiang immediately knew that the ingredient of this longevity lock was Kunlun jade, which is often referred to as Hetian jade.
Exists for 223 years.
A simple reversal, 223 years ago, it was the end of the Qianlong period.
A piece of Hetian jade silver chain longevity lock at the end of Qianlong, logically speaking, should not be very expensive, although I know that the stall holder buys this thing, it will definitely be profitable, but it is difficult to say how much you earn.
So Shen Qiang didn't plan to interfere.
Then the stall set up a bite to say, this longevity lock must be Xiuyan jade, what moisturization, what cracks, luster, pulp, talk about the head, and finally he said that the stall owner was stunned, and sold the Hetian jade longevity lock at a price of 1,200 yuan.
Then he turned and walked away.
Seeing Shen Qiang following him with a smile, he frowned and said, "Why are you still following me? Do you want to buy a few jars? ”
Shen Qiang smiled: "No, I just want to learn your tricks, the longevity lock of Hetian jade at the end of Qianlong was forcibly fooled by you into Xiuyan jade in the Republic of China." ”
The stall setter was stunned, looked at Shen Qiang in surprise, and then frowned: "Are you sure?"
Shen Qiang smiled, recalled the picture that appeared in his mind at that time, and added: "This longevity lock, with a slight drum on the front, resembles a saddle, and a flat back, without ornamentation, implying peace and security, as big as a slap, is brought by the generals." ”
The stall keeper looked at Shen Qiang and was silent for a moment and said, "I suddenly thought that the last time you bought my jar, it might not just be because of good luck. ”
"But I'm really a newcomer, and I don't understand a lot of things, so I ask my seniors for more advice. ”
Looking at Shen Qiang, who looked indifferent, the stall setter smiled, and after being silent for a moment, he said: "My name is Sun Kaiping, and I have been doing business here for almost twenty years, and they all call me Sun Yanzi, because I always like to sell fakes." ”
Raising the longevity lock in his hand and putting it in his trouser pocket, Sun Kaiping said: "The antique market, the old goods market is like this, this is a place where knowledge crushes everything." ”
"For those who have the ability, this is a paradise for making money, and for those who are not, this is a hell of bankruptcy. ”
Shen Qiang smiled and said, "I won't go bankrupt here." ”
Sun Kaiping frowned, shook his head, walked away, and said, "I think so too, but it's not three hundred yuan, so I'll sell Nalan Xingde's wrench to you." ”
Shen Qiang smiled: "That's all in the past, I will come here often in the future, please take care of me." ”
Sun Kaiping's face immediately sank: "That is the best opportunity in my life, I didn't use any means against you, I am already very kind, so you don't have to expect, I will take care of you." ”
Shen Qiang smiled, and then said: "Don't talk too much, if you encounter an antique that can't judge the authenticity, maybe come to me for help, I can give you some guidance." ”
"You are pointing me out?" Sun Kaiping was a little angry.
At this time, Boss Ma, who happened to buy his Warring States Yuhuan last time, came over, and after hearing the conversation between the two, he said hello to Shen Qiang and said: "Nephew Sun, don't be unconvinced, if Xiao Shen can pick up a big leak from you, it already proves that people's eyesight." ”
Sun Kaiping said with a very cold face: "Boss Ma, you don't need to say cool words, how can you often stand by the river without getting your shoes wet, haven't you ever looked at it?"
Boss Ma smiled and ignored Sun Kaiping: "Xiao Shen, the antique market is a place where you eat people and don't spit out bones." Reversing black and white, lowering prices, and using fake chaos is really a basic compulsory course, believe me, but any antique dealer, catch one without trial, shoot directly, there is no unjust, false and wrongful case. ”
Shen Qiang was amused by these words, and said, "Then I will ask Boss Ma to take more care of me in the future." ”
Boss Ma smiled: "It's easy to say, our brothers hit it off at first sight, forget the New Year's friend, the wrench you got last time, the old brother really likes it, let's discuss it, you give it to me, let's make friends." ”
Hearing this, Shen Qiang smiled and bent his eyes: "My brother and I are also familiar at first sight, if others buy it, I will definitely not sell it, but since the old brother likes it, then take it for a friendship price of 30 million." ”
As soon as he heard this, Boss Ma couldn't be happy.
At this time, Sun Kaiping, who was standing on the side, suddenly said: "Shen Qiang, you just said that if I can't see something, I can ask you for guidance, then it's better like this." ”
"Let's compare our eyesight, you lose, Nalan Xingde's wrench, sell me for a million. If you win, I will admit that you have a place in this old goods market, but I will not fight with you for anything you like. ”
Seeing Shen Qiang looking at him in surprise.
Sun Kaiping raised his eyebrows and said: "You are a newcomer, and you may not know what it means to be harmonious and make money." There are about 300 professional antique dealers who are active in this antique market all year round. ”
Taking out the longevity lock he had bought earlier from his trouser pocket, Sun Kaiping said: "I can see that it is a piece of Hetian jade, you can also see it, and others can also see it." ”
"If everyone is rushing to buy and raise the price of each other, then the end result is that no one can buy it, and even if it does, there is no profit at all. ”
"So you might find that in this market, there are more than a dozen merchants who have their eye on a product, but no one is going to bid until the person holding the item lets it go. ”
The reason is that because he has been recognized, other merchants, even if they like it, will only wait for him to buy it, and then trade with him privately. ”
"But if they don't approve of you, then they don't care about that, raising prices, grabbing, fighting, anything can happen. ”
Looking at Shen Qiang, Sun Kaiping continued: "Assuming that you really come here every day in the future and can be a person again, then after almost half a year to a year, the businessmen who have been active in this market all year round may recognize you." ”
"But if you are willing to bet this game with me, I will ask the respected old man Meng and his peers in the market to be notaries, and if you win, you will be recognized by them. ”
"You don't have to compete for bids, and you can often see some good goods in the hands of merchants. ”
Shen Qiang smiled and turned his head to look at Boss Ma: "Is this true?"
Boss Ma smiled: "Almost, gambling with him can indeed make the merchants in the market know you." But the premise is that you can't lose too badly, if you don't have good eyesight and they think you're a fool, then you'll be here in the future, and countless fakes will appear in front of your eyes. ”
Hearing this, Shen Qiang looked at Sun Kaiping and said with a smile: "Okay, I accept this gamble." ”
