At noon the next day, I bought a mobile phone card at a roadside newsstand, and then went to the Panjiayuan Flea Market.
"Boss, you can look at me as you please. I'm a serious old guy."
At a Western stall, a middle-aged man with a beer belly and a southern accent held a box lunch in his hand, looked at me and smiled.
The man in front of me is the old bear Liangzi mentioned. He doesn't even know who I am.
"This plate is good. How much does it cost?"
"What do you mean? It seems that you know your stuff, boss. This is a genuine Huying Qingguan kiln from the Southern Song Dynasty. I got it from a farmer. Look at this pedicure, the glaze color, and the big opening.
Something to open the door! Business has been slow these two days. If you really like it, give me a fixed price of 80,000."
"Are you going to protect me? It looks so good to me that I don't dare to recognize it." I said.
"Boss, you are right. I have been running a stall here for more than ten years. I have never sold fake goods. I promise you that the goods will not be old! Full refund! The reason why my plate is expensive is that it is in good condition. As the old saying goes.
Speaking of which, if you make an old thing look like new, it must be a treasure! To tell you the truth, when the market for the first two items was good, my colleagues offered me 100,000 yuan and I was not willing to sell them!"
After hearing this, I took out a magnifying glass from my pocket and studied the plate carefully.
I just bought a magnifying glass for five yuan. In Panjiayuan, nine out of ten people who use a magnifying glass to look at things (except jade) are sticks. Now I just want to pretend that I am a stick.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind me and said: "Don't buy it, this plate is not like Yingqing, it is like Hutian Kiln, which used to be foreign trade porcelain."
I turned back out of curiosity.
The person speaking was a short-haired woman in her forties, holding a rag bag in her hand.
Old Xiong panicked for a moment and said with a dark face: "If you can't speak, then stop talking! This is clearly a Southern Song Dynasty Yingqing plate!"
The short-haired lady immediately raised her eyebrows and said: "Yingqing is green with white, and the glaze is uniform in thickness and crystal clear. The glaze on your plate is obviously gray. In addition, the pedicure technique is not up to standard. There are obviously no traces of penis, even though it is old."
, but it’s worth a thousand yuan at most, so you’re fooling people by selling things from a remote kiln as shadows.”
Old Xiong couldn't sit still anymore and immediately stood up and pushed the person away. Then he came back and said to me with a smile: "Don't listen to her nonsense. This woman is always like this. Everyone in the market annoys her because she thinks she
I only know how to identify treasures after reading a few shabby books. In fact, I am poorer than the previous one. I can’t afford anything, and I still love to give pointers. I guess I’m mentally a little abnormal.”
I was a little surprised as I watched this woman leave, not because I thought she was very professional, but because there were not many people here who dared to blatantly demolish me.
Of course I knew something was wrong with the plate. I could see it just now from a distance of 300 meters. She meant well, but she was a little bit arrogant.
Not only did I know that this plate was not Yingqing, I also knew that this plate should have been fished out of the water in Zhangzhou, Fujian, within half a year.
"Well, I want this plate of yours. It's cheaper. How about 30,000?"
"Ouch! Boss, you must be an expert. I really can't make any money! The minimum is sixty-six thousand and sixty-six thousand! Let's get lucky. If you go with it, so will I!"
I directly took out three bundles of money from my bag and handed them over and said, "Just take a look. If you can sell it, I'll sell it. If you can't, I won't force you."
"this....."
He thought for a few seconds, took the money, and said with a pained look on his face: "Hey... It really looks like you are a big connoisseur, boss. Plus, I'm short of money recently, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to sell it."
"Pooh!"
At this time, the stall owners around looked at him counting money, with envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes.
I sneered in my heart: "Just wait. It won't be long before I ask you to spit out your capital and profits."
As soon as I stood up after the transaction, I was immediately surrounded by about a dozen vendors from all directions. They held up identical celadon plates and shouted: "Boss, look at mine! Good stuff! Cheap! Only 800."
!”
I took a casual look and paid for it directly.
Then it just exploded.
Not only the stalls in the west, but also the people setting up stalls in the greenhouses in the north came here!
They all held similar plates for me to buy, and I accepted them all, but the ones I bought only cost several hundred yuan each.
People who behave like me are called "God of Wealth" by the stall owners. Usually someone will shout in the QQ group: "Today there is a God of Wealth from so and so, you are so lucky."
At that time, the function of Panjiayuan’s internal QQ group was to rent stalls and exchange goods back and forth. Now they use WeChat groups. I still have five groups on my mobile phone, with 500 people in each group. They are all full, but I usually
It was folded and hidden, and I never spoke in the group. My avatar still used the photo of the ruins of the Xiwu'er Kingdom. The turrets were discovered in that area, and it was also where I met Ma Zhen.
When I came out of the market, I happened to bump into the short-haired lady from before. Seeing me carrying a big bag full of trophies, she sighed and said, "Hey, did your money come from the wind or was it picked up on the road? You don't know what to buy here."
Just watch more and buy less.”
I ignored it, smiled and left directly.
This is a kind reminder, and I'm not scolding anyone. I just feel like she is mentally a little out of sorts.
The next day, I went to the market and bought a lot of junk. After two days of this, I became completely famous, and the old bear asked for my phone number.
If you don't want to let go of your children and you can't trap the wolf, you have to spend the necessary bait money.
He was more anxious than I expected. He called me that night and asked me some indirect questions.
I claim to be an engineering boss. I buy antiques purely as gifts for my friends. This time I came to Beijing for two days and left in two or three days.
He immediately smiled and said: "So that's it... Boss, do you want to play a little bit? This is a serious place."
"Oh? Play two games? Do you have a game over there?"
"Haha, yes, to be honest with you boss, no one is allowed in if you don't know anyone there, so I can be considered a regular customer there."
I immediately agreed readily. He seemed to be afraid that I would run away. He picked me up and drove me straight to Shunyi that night. On the way, he kept telling me how good the place was, how regular and safe it was, and how much I could win if I was lucky.
.
I arrived in Shunyi at around 8 o'clock in the evening. The casino was in a bungalow in Houshayu. From the outside, it looked ordinary. After entering, I found that the lights were brightly lit and there was something special about it.
There are more than twenty slot machines on the mahjong table, and at least thirty or forty people are gambling. There are also several hot-bodied women wearing miniskirts who go back and forth to each table serving tea and water.
"Hey, Brother Xiong, who is this brother? Why do you look so unfamiliar?" asked a thin monkey walking towards him.
"Hi, let me introduce you. This is my friend Boss Xiang, who does big projects. I'm bringing him here for fun today. Do you have time to join us?"
"Yes, then I'm asking two people to share a table."
I immediately said: "No, you seem to know each other, so how can we play with each other? What if you get together to deceive me?"
The old bear immediately laughed and said: "How can you do that? Boss, you are too worried. It is very fair here. Our winning or losing depends on luck. If you don't believe me, then go find a table to play by yourself."
I nodded and went straight to the table.
Although the sparrow here is small and well-equipped, you can use the POS machine to exchange for chips. I exchanged tens of thousands of dollars. There were three people betting with me, including the thin monkey who just greeted the old bear. The other two people were bald and the other with long hair.
I can feel that there is at least one crook among these three people, but I can't be sure who it is in a short time.
I'm not very good at playing cards, but I do know some tricks and sayings on the Blue Road.
In the past, we talked about the Eight Generals of Qianmen, and the top eight generals were Zheng, Ti, Fan, Tuo, Feng, Huo, Chu, and Yao.
The next eight generals are Chong, Liu, Tian, Feng, Zhong, Ma, Zhen and Kun.
Thirty-six heaven bureaus, seventy-two land bureaus, and one hundred and eight water bureaus. The more powerful ones are the Jinshan bureau with water overflowing, the apricot forest rejuvenation bureau, the road-breaking Shura bureau, the sky-stealing and moon-changing bureau, the dripping water rolling ball bureau, and the Taigong fishing bureau.
, Seven Star Gathering Bureau, Shun Juding Flower Bureau, Subu Xingguan Bureau, Drumming and Flower Passing Bureau, etc.
The upper eight generals rely on technology, while the lower eight generals use crooked ways, such as using see-through glasses, micro cameras, marker pokers, lead-filled sieves, etc. These lower eight generals can also be understood as the wild ways of tomb robbing.
I know some ways to prevent cheating, such as the sandwich shuffle method, which will not be effective against the top eight generals.
When we played blackjack, I won thousands of dollars one after another at the beginning, and then started losing one after another. In about two hours, I lost all my tens of thousands of chips.
I looked a little panicked on the surface, but in fact, I was as stable as an old dog. From the moment I came into contact with the old bear yesterday to now, every step was within my plan.
What should I do if I have no money?
Borrow now.
Those who open casinos are not afraid of gamblers borrowing money, especially big bosses like me who are led by acquaintances and come from other places to play. They don’t need to do any formalities. They just look at their ID cards and issue IOUs.
I said that my bank card limit was exceeded today, and then someone took me to the office to find the boss, "Brother Chicken," and this Brother Chicken was the one who gave Ryoko a loan shark.
The conversation went very smoothly, and after I finished writing the 50,000 yuan IOU, the chicken guy even smiled and handed me a huazi.
What he didn't notice was that the moment I stood up to take a cigarette, I kicked a Nokia phone that was on a call under the sofa.
