Chapter 1: Invitation to Kai Yu
As for choosing gifts, there are some things to pay attention to. Those who can give gifts can do something that costs one dollar, which is called devoting what they like. Those who can't give gifts are equivalent to cutting chickens | Ba Jing Bodhisattva, who is in pain and is still ugly. This is called giving a fool's gift or a fool's gift.
After a free time, Zhou Dongfei took Sister Mei to the antique street. In Zhou Dongfei's words, there are very few opportunities to find real antiques in such places, 99% of them are fakes and imitations. Even among the one-percent of the genuine products, more than half are worthless things. Zhou Dongfei pointed to the counter of a store and said, "For example, the copper coins of Kaiyuan Tongbao are very likely to be real things. They are said to be things from the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago, but many of them are passed down. Even if it is a real object, you will suffer a loss if you spend 100 yuan to buy it."
"Then you still bring me here?" Although Sister Mei said this, she was still attracted by the dazzling array of things on the roadside. She was overwhelmed while walking and looking at it.
"Isn't this watching you be busy and come out to relax."
"You are still conscience, ha!" Sister Mei smiled.
This street is not very wide, with antique buildings on both sides. Most of the people who live here have a rustic atmosphere, as if even people have become antiques. Therefore, Sister Mei, who has a fashionable atmosphere, elegant temperament and young and beautiful appearance, becomes a landscape when she arrives here. Some business owners are straight-eyed, and a few are even kicked by the boss under the counter.
Of course, another main reason why Sister Mei is being paid attention to by these vendors: she looks like a rich man.
Rich people are already a rare object to be slaughtered, and what is even more exciting is that she still looks like an amateur!
So whenever Sister Mei goes to any shop, she will be greeted by a good person. Maybe she cheats her and earns the rent this month. Antiques are not worth the real price at all.
"Boss, how do you sell this Guanyin pendant?" Sister Mei asked.
Antique Street is not a jade shop. If you ask about money directly without asking about your origin, you will be an amateur among laymen. The thin and somewhat cunning boss said with a smile: "If it is an ordinary jade piece, it is worth a thousand or eight hundred yuan. But this thing has its origin, and it was sold by a friend of mine."
"There is still a source?" Sister Mei asked. Zhou Dongfei leaned against the counter with a smile and gave a charming look at the half-aged but slightly handsome boss inside. The boss didn't want to offend the big customer, so he could only give him a blank look and turn to the back of the store.
The boss didn't notice this and introduced his treasures wholeheartedly: "The older generation of my friend (7) family was a mansion in the Qing Dynasty and followed Li Hongzhang. It is said that this Jade Guanyin is something that Li Hongzhang reported, and it is also a good gadget."
Is it still something from Li Hongzhang's family? I can't tell that it has a real origin. This jade Guanyin's thumb size is very delicate, the light green jade is soft in touch, and it is easy to play. I heard that it is still the image of the elderly, so Sister Mei asked immediately: How much is it worth? I think that's the case.
If she asked her to bargain, it would be this level.
The boss smiled and said, "Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times, and things that are a little bit old now are not very low. According to the current market, you can't get this jade piece without 30,000 or 20,000 yuan. But I think the lady likes this thing, and I'll say another ugly saying: You are rich, and I want to pay a long-term customer. So, I won't lie anymore. Don't bargain 15,000 yuan, just take it if you like it."
A thumb-sized thing is worth 15,000 yuan, which is really not cheap, but Sister Mei likes it when she sees it. Moreover, she wants to buy it for Zhou Dongfei to wear it. The man wears Guanyin and the woman wears Buddha. After all, Zhou Dongfei is still a person who is in the underground world, and she is also considered a good fortune and safe.
