Chapter 195

One liang of yellow and three liang of gold

The woman hesitated for a moment, and she didn't understand Zhang Can's purpose and background. Generally speaking, as long as she figured out the customer's psychology and knew whether he wanted this thing, it would be easier to offer the price. If she believed that this thing was a good product from the bottom of her heart, it would be acceptable to be more expensive.

But if he was just a passing person who could offer a price, he would like to ask for it or not, then if she called it a high price, Zhang Can might turn around and leave, so what price should he call it, then he still has to figure out what Zhang Can mean.

However, Zhang Can's performance made her unable to guess and did not show her special expression, but she didn't seem to want it. The woman hesitated for a moment. The businessman's cunning nature made her call for a price: "Brother, if you really want it, I'll also say the real price, two thousand five!"

It was a fake, and it might only cost twenty yuan, but she still dared to bid 2,500 yuan and increased the price to a hundred times. After saying this price, the woman stared at Zhang Can at his expression.

Zhang Can smiled and immediately replied: "You'll have a piece of broken glass, and you'll have to pay 2,500 yuan? Forget it, I won't tell you more. Two hundred yuan, I'll give you some money for some stalls. How about it? Will it be sold?"

It was really a sky-high price. Zhang Can paid the money locally. The price was 2,500 yuan. Zhang Can suddenly reached a price of half that was less than a fraction. What’s more important is that Zhang Can also clearly states that the pendant was made of a piece of glass!

It was very accurate. The woman was stunned for a moment and couldn't figure out whether Zhang Can really see it or was talking nonsense. Usually what the businessman said was to deliberately say that the valuable ones were worthless. This is a convention.

Seeing that the woman was still estimating, Zhang Can immediately pushed her back: "Don't guess, I mean it's true. I didn't see any of your pendants that are valuable. I passed by and saw that the shape was pretty good. I bought one and gave it to someone. It doesn't matter if I like it or not. I mainly take it back and deal with it."

The woman suddenly understood that many tourists who came to travel had the same idea. They spent a little money to buy a fake product and pretended to be jade. The family members could not recognize it, and they would show off. It was better to be full of face. It seemed that this young man knew it seriously. Even if he didn't know the details of the stall in her store, he was still a person with some eyesight and experience. It was hard to kill a ruthless person. Like this young man, he probably wouldn't make any ruthless money.

However, Zhang Can paid 200 yuan for her own price, of course she wanted to sell it. In fact, the capital of this thing is only about ten yuan. Usually, some people pay for 40 or 50 yuan, and she also wants to sell it. For people like them, as long as there is profit, they have to do this business. They make more money when they make more money, and make less when they don’t make money. Anyway, one can make one.

"Then... add a little more, three hundred... how about it?" The woman's profit-seeking personality, although she knew that Zhang Can had a great possibility of knowing the bottom of her object, she still added a price of 100 yuan. She was looking at Zhang Can's expression and reaction. If Zhang Can insisted on not adding more, of course she would still sell it.

Zhang Can frowned deliberately and said, "It's okay to add 100 yuan, but I want to get one more thing, can I? If it's OK, the deal will be made. If it doesn't work, I'll leave!"

The woman smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, you really know how to do business. OK, what do you think you want to add? You can pick it out first."

Although Zhang Can wants to get another item if there is a valuable real thing in the stall in her store, she will definitely not answer it. However, there is no real valuable item in the store, so it doesn't matter that Zhang Can takes another item, just to get an extra worthless item. Most of these items are only priced at twelve yuan, and a little higher technology is made of fifteen, twenty, and fifty. If it is like the one Zhang Can has seen before, such as the pendant that Wang Qian recognized by him, that is a high imitation product, and it is also a fake item, and that one item is worth tens of thousands of yuan, because it can reach the level that even the appraisal masters cannot recognize, that is not something that anyone can do!

The woman agreed, and then waited for Zhang Can to choose an add-on by himself. He probably would choose a Guanyin statue or a decoration of the same color. However, Zhang Can looked at it and pointed to the stone pressed with adhesive paper and said, "You need a stone. If you want to find a stone in the capital, you can't find it!"

The woman was stunned and then said happily: "Hehehe, yes, yes, in the capital, you have to find a stone, you have to find some soil to come out, you have to buy it for money. You want to make a bonsai, so you can just pick one of these stones!"

Zhang Can smiled. This woman was really a businessman. Even if it was a stone, she couldn't bear to give her one more piece. She just said to him to pick one piece, smiled, and then took the piece he wanted.

The woman smiled and flattered, "This stone is pretty, blue and white, and it's yellow inside. These are the stones that my husband and I made when we came to Fuzhou to work a few years ago..."

Zhang Can smiled again, only to hear that the bottom of the box was good, but he didn't hear that the stone was used to press the box. He immediately took three hundred yuan out of his pocket and gave it to the boss's wife. Then he took the Guanyin statue pendant and the stone in his hand. After walking a few steps, he turned around and asked the woman: "Boss, are there any carvings here for stones or masters who carve seals?"

The proprietress pointed at the front: "Over there, there is a stall on the left at the intersection of the slanting road. The old man is a master who specializes in carving seals. He has good skills and is very famous in this street!"

"Thank you, boss lady!"

After Zhang Can thanked him, he immediately walked forward. While walking, he still looked around with his perspective. If there was something good, he still wanted to take it down, but he still refused to do something that he had money but didn't make money.

After going over, Zhang Can still find that some stalls still have a few genuine items, but they are not of good texture. Even a few pieces of jadeite are not worth too high, and they are only a few thousand yuan. But the stall owner probably knows these things themselves, and the locations are different, and the ones are placed in conspicuous and more important places.

From this point, Zhang Can understand that these things are like goods in supermarkets, and they are samples of the storefront with real prices. If you don’t spend money, you will no longer be able to pick them up. However, those things are not worth a lot of money anyway, and it doesn’t matter. Real good things will probably not be placed on the surface. Besides, they are dusty treasures, and most people cannot recognize them. Zhang Can is the most experienced one.

There is also Tianhuangshi. Zhang Can also find it a bit strange. The boss said that he was brought from his hometown just now. Her tone was of Minnan dialect. This may be true. However, Tianhuangshi is only unique to Shoushan Village, Fujian. The name of Tianhuangshi comes from the yellow stones found in the rice fields in Shoushan Township. Because this kind of stone is only found in the sand layer under the paddy fields that are miles long on both sides of the stream in Shoushan Township. Moreover, after hundreds of years of mining, the paddy fields in that area have been mined countless times, and basically have been completely mined. The excellent Tianhuangshi has long been priceless. In ancient times, there was a saying that "one tael of field yellow and three taels of gold". Now, I am afraid that this "one tael" Tianhuang is right for "one pound of gold"!

Zhang Can strangely said that the seed stones of Tianhuangshi are like jade wool materials. The jade wool materials have a layer of stone weathering layer on the surface. Because there is no instrument that can see through, gambling stones have such unique charm.

However, the seed stones of Tianhuangshi are different from jadeite. The stone shape, stone quality, stone color, stone skin, radish patterns, red tendons, etc. of Tianhuangshi can be seen from the appearance, and then carved by skilled craftsmen, its value can be maximized.

Although Zhang Can doesn’t know much about Tianhuangshi, he still knows a little bit. When he was in Jincheng a few years ago, he knew a lot about jade and also studied domestic jade, but he only studied Myanmar jade more deeply.

Logically speaking, Tianhuangshi can be seen directly. The outer layer is not like other jade. It needs to be cut open to know if it really has jade. However, this piece of Tianhuangshi is like jade, and there is a layer of stone leather on the surface, so Zhang Can is a little strange.

But the world is full of strange things. No matter how strange it is, it is just a secret in him, right?

While thinking, Zhang Can walked, he suddenly saw a three-way intersection on the left. In fact, this was not a road, but a small alley in a vanilla stall. At this intersection, there was a stall full of seals, including wood and stone, all of which were large and small. Behind the stall, there was a store. The shelves in the store were mostly filled with mixed wood and stones. It was probably used to carve seals. The back of the store was even more messy, with small tools for carving stones, not as large as the stone cutting machine for decomposing wool materials, and there were cooking utensils. Anyway, it was just two words: "Marble, messy!"

The old man was sitting in front of the stall and was carving a small wooden seal. He looked about sixty years old. He was very thin, but very focused. He was wearing a pair of glasses, but the glasses slid into the middle of the bridge of the nose, and the eyes seemed to leak out from outside the glasses, as if the glasses were just a match.
