In fact, the porcelain chosen by middle-aged men is fake.
If sold, it would be only fifteen thousand at most.
Therefore, he neither lost nor gained.
However, Lin Chen did not feel that the middle-aged man had made a mistake.
He definitely has an ulterior motive.
Sure enough, the middle-aged man drove the three of them to a polishing shop half an hour later.
The location of this polishing shop is extremely remote. It is located at the junction of Yunhai City and Yunling City. It is a two-way zone, and the surrounding buildings are also very backward.
The store was dark and dull, and there was a smell that made Fang Wan's nose wrinkle.
"Is old shopkeeper Zheng here?"
The middle-aged man shouted loudly after entering the store.
Soon.
A man in his early 30s walked out of the inner door of the store. He had a greasy head and a dirty face, and was quite slovenly.
Moreover, the stench in the store came from him.
Fang Wan couldn't help but take a half step back.
nausea.
"My father died three years ago."
The sloppy man said indifferently with an expressionless face.
"Old shopkeeper Zheng is dead?
That’s it.”
The middle-aged man's face was covered with sadness.
The next moment, his expression returned to normal and he asked: "Then you should have inherited your father's skills, right?"
"the student surpasses the master."
The sloppy man replied.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man grinned: "Well, take a look at this piece of porcelain."
He handed the porcelain in his hand to the sloppy man.
The latter touched the porcelain and observed it carefully.
Three or four minutes later, the sloppy man said: "Although it is a fake, the material is very good and it can be passed off as the real thing."
"Which dynasty do you want it to be?"
The sloppy man looked up at the middle-aged man.
"It can be used in Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and in the Five Dynasties."
The middle-aged man replied.
"I never make decisions for customers."
The sloppy man shook his head.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment: "Then let's go to the Song Dynasty."
"It seems you are an expert."
The sloppy man glanced at the middle-aged man.
Imitation of Song Dynasty porcelain is the best choice.
"Haha, I'm not even an expert. Your father taught me this."
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head.
"I see."
The sloppy man nodded.
"how long it takes?"
the middle-aged man asked.
"Bring 10,000 yuan and come pick up the goods at six o'clock tomorrow morning."
The sloppy man said without thinking.
"Six o'clock?"
The middle-aged man was obviously shocked, and then said: "You are indeed better than your father."
But the slovenly man waved his hand and said, "Go slowly without seeing me off."
Expulsion! The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "Then I will look forward to your masterpiece."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Lin Chen did not leave.
Instead, he focused on a bronze sword and asked, "Is this sword for sale?"
"Not for sale."
The sloppy man shook his head.
"If you don't want to sell it, you can hang it on the wall?"
Lin Chen asked with a smile.
"If I want to hang up, I'll hang up."
The sloppy man replied while wiping the porcelain.
Then he waved his hand: "Go slowly and don't see me off."
"One hundred thousand dollars will buy you this sword."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
The sloppy man paused for a moment while wiping the porcelain.
But the next moment, he continued to move, while shaking his head and saying: "I won't sell it."
"Two hundred thousand."
Lin Chen said calmly.
"Even if you increase it to five hundred thousand, I won't sell it."
The sloppy man replied without raising his head.
"Then 510,000."
Lin Chen grinned.
To be honest, the sloppy man was a little moved.
Before his father died, he had set a rule for him.
Although it is a craft job, its essence is speculation and harming the natural world.
Therefore, we can accept up to three jobs per month, and each job is worth 10,000 yuan.
Over the past year, he has earned an average of more than 20,000 yuan per month.
More than 500,000 yuan, support him for two years! How can he not be tempted?
However, he doesn't want to do anything hurtful.
Therefore, he reminded: "I would like to advise you..." He stopped wiping the porcelain, raised his head, looked at Lin Chen and said, "This sword is not a good thing. You spent more than 500,000 yuan to buy it.
Loss, no profit.”
"I just like losing money."
Lin Chen grinned.
The sloppy man stared at Lin Chen's eyes.
Lin Chen was calm and composed, smiling and looking at him.
More than ten seconds later.
The sloppy man looked away.
He felt Lin Chen's determination.
He could tell that Lin Chen was neither angry nor joking.
Therefore, he nodded and said: "Three hundred thousand, no bargaining."
Lin Chen turned to look at Fang Wan.
"Do you think of me as your ATM?"
Fang Wan gave Lin Chen a hard twist.
Having said that.
However, Fang Wan still paid the money honestly.
Lin Chen and the other three walked to the door.
The sloppy man suddenly said: "This sword must not be placed in the bedroom, nor in the living room. If you insist on placing it in the living room, then it should be facing the door or balcony, and it is best to place it in the toilet."
Lin Chen heard this and said "thank you".
Then walked out of the store.
The sloppy man watched the three people leave.
"The sword is a good sword, but the soul is not a good soul."
He sighed leisurely.
... The middle-aged man was waiting in the car.
"What are you doing in there?"
he asked.
When he found out that Lin Chen spent 300,000 yuan to buy a sword, he was shocked.
He immediately grabbed the sword, rubbed it and looked at it.
After a while.
"Boy, you've been tricked!"
The middle-aged man shouted: "This is just a modern sword, it's not worth 300,000 yuan! You are about to retreat!"
Lin Chen smiled and shook his head: "What you sell is just water thrown out, how can there be any reason to take it back?
Regardless of whether it’s worth it or not, if you buy it, you just buy it.”
The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Boy, your 300,000 is wasted.
It doesn’t matter, you’re not short of money anyway, so you just pawned 300,000.”
The middle-aged man drove the three people back to the city.
"You guys can get off the bus right here."
The middle-aged man stopped in front of a shopping mall and said, "I have something to take care of, so you don't have to follow me."
The three of them got out of the car.
The middle-aged man looked at Mu Lianqing again and reminded: "Lianqing, don't forget to ask your master to come out and have dinner together tonight."
When Mu Lianqing heard this, she first glanced at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen nodded slightly.
Mu Lianqing then nodded: "Okay, please pay attention to your safety."
The middle-aged man drove away.
He just left.
Fang Wan and Mu Lianqing spoke almost at the same time.
"Lin Chen, what exactly do you want to do?"
"Lin Chen, my uncle is a bit greedy and likes to pretend, but he is not a bad person, so don't argue with him."
Fang Wan's first sentence.
Mulianqing's second sentence.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to him, I'm just playing with him."
Lin Chen gently patted Mu Lianqing's little hand and comforted her.
"Actually, I, I quite hate him."
Mu Lianqing said suddenly.
She looked a little lonely: "When my family was suffering, he ran away and ignored us.
Now my family has gone through all the hardships, but he is back and wants to inherit my father's underground boxing gym."
Fang Wan asked: "Since you hate him, why do you have anything to do with him?
Wouldn't it be enough to just deny him as uncle?
Anyway, his strength is almost the same as yours, so you are not afraid of him."
Mu Lianqing shook her head gently: "He is stronger than me. In the ring, he deliberately suppressed his strength."
Fang Wan said: "Then you don't need to be afraid, Lin Chen will help you anyway..." However, before she could finish her words, Lin Chen hit her.
"Snapped!"
A slap, a crisp sound.
There was a "wave".
As for which part was hit?
All veteran drivers know this.
"Why are you hitting me?"
Fang Wan pouted and asked.
Lin Chen taught him a lesson: "It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs.
"If you don't know the specific affairs of her family, don't make random decisions for her."
"Otherwise, your good intentions may be of no help."
"Moreover, I believe Lian Qing can make the most correct decision."
