As a result, several people started bidding out of opportunism or gambling.
"I'll pay five hundred."
"I'll give you a thousand."
"I'll pay you a thousand and a half!"
…
Because they all adhere to the principle that if it is not an antique, it does not matter, but it is an antique and can be resold for a profit, so the price is not high. The forty-year-old farmer seller kept shaking his head in dissatisfaction.
This kind of coiled dragon jade carving was impossible for Lan Feiyang to pick up under the circumstances, so he obediently watched the show.
When the price reached 10,000 and the farmer seller shook his head, the scene temporarily cooled down.
The farmer seller couldn't help but look around at the crowd with some disappointment: "Is there no one who sincerely wants to buy?"
"Otherwise, if you offer a minimum price, we can take it as a reference. If we feel it's not worth it, we'll leave." A voice suddenly said.
Lan Feiyang followed the sound and saw that it was Boss Zhang who would also be famous in the antique industry in the future.
"Five, fifty-eight thousand ()." The farmer seller thought for a while and finally said tentatively.
"fifty thousand?"
"Fifty-eight thousand?" The onlookers discussed or asked each other.
"The most I can offer is 20,000." Boss Zhang made a counter-offer. The others looked at each other, unable to make up their minds for a moment.
"Twenty thousand is too little. Boss, can you add some more?" the farmer seller asked with a troubled face.
"No." Boss Zhang shook his head and said slowly. "I think the quality of this jade is not very good, and it doesn't look like an old antique. If I buy it back, it will just be a decoration. I won't make any money at all."
"..." the seller said, seeming to be persuaded, "but 20,000 is really too little, please add more."
"We really can't add more." Boss Zhang shook his head, "Look, I don't look like a rich man, do I? How can I waste money? If you are willing to buy, we will make a deal; if you don't want to buy, I will turn around and leave.
.”
"Well, then..." The seller glanced at the crowd again. It seemed that no one would offer a higher price, and he was hesitating to agree.
"Wait a minute, I'll give you 30,000 yuan." Suddenly someone walked out of the crowd and shouted.
Lan Feiyang saw that it was Fan Ren. After seeing him for a few days, the bridge of his nose was completely healed, but the two front teeth were still missing, so he still spoke with a loose voice.
When the seller saw it, he greeted him happily: "Little brother, do you really want to pay 30,000 yuan?"
Fan Ren raised his head: "Of course!"
"Okay, just buy it for 30,000 yuan..."
"Wait!" Before the seller could finish speaking, Boss Zhang interrupted again, "I'll give you 31,000 yuan."
"Hey, weren't you unwilling to increase the price just now? Why are you willing to increase the price now?" Fan Ren said sarcastically, "Are you trying to deliberately fool people? I'll pay 32,000!"
Boss Zhang gritted his teeth in anger: "I'll pay thirty-five thousand!"
"Thirty-eight thousand!" Fan Ren rolled his eyes and shouted again. In fact, he had no intention of buying any jade carvings, he just wanted to cause trouble.
When he was in high school, he fell in love with Boss Zhang's niece. Since the old guy was nosy, he refused to let her go. Now he also wanted to make things difficult for him and vent his anger.
But Boss Zhang didn't recognize Fan Ren for a while.
His face turned purple with anger. Did he really want to give it up? He glanced at the Panlong Jade Zun and it looked a little more imposing. It didn't seem like a fake. He had to stamp his feet: "I'll pay 40,000!"
"I'll give four..." Fan Ren suddenly stopped, then shook his feet and whistled, and said weakly in a low voice, "Forget it, I'll leave it to you."
"Okay, I'll sell it to you for only 40,000 yuan." The farmer seller quickly pushed the Panlong jade carving into Boss Zhang's hand, "You pay quickly, I have to rush to the hospital."
Holding the Panlong Jade Sculpture in his arms, Boss Zhang suddenly realized that he had been fooled by Fan Ren. The deal that was supposed to be completed for 20,000 yuan now immediately increased to 40,000 yuan, doubling the price.
But you can't go back on your word, there are so many people watching.
"Um, um...I really don't have so much cash with me. How about you come with me to my house to get it?" Boss Zhang asked the seller awkwardly. In fact, he didn't have much money at home, but he could ask the neighbors for help.
Borrow some.
"Tch! Why are you shouting if you don't bring any cash?" Fan Ren was very disdainful, "Why are you pretending to be wealthy when you have nothing to do?"
"That's right, that's right." A group of Fan Ren's friends also started shouting, "You didn't bring any money, and you kept yelling about it. What trouble are you making?"
"Who said I didn't bring any money?" Boss Zhang couldn't help but say, "I brought 25,000 yuan. Otherwise, I wouldn't have offered 20,000 yuan in the first place."
In fact, if the seller insists on adding more money just now, he can also pay more. But in this business, isn't it more sophisticated than anyone else and can he keep his composure?
Who would have thought that when this kid Fan Ren came out, he would mess up his own routine. Who told him that he liked these antiques, porcelain, sculptures and the like? Sometimes he would be obsessed with getting them if he was interested.
"How dare you call for 40,000 when you only brought 25,000?" Fan Ren sneered, "You are really a different kind." There were boos all around.
Boss Zhang's face couldn't help but turn red and green: "Well, then I don't want it anymore." With that, he returned the Panlong jade sculpture to the seller.
For this hobby of collecting antiques and sculptures, he spent all the money at home and still lives in a dilapidated bungalow. He still has 25,000 yuan in his pocket and is still working as a street vendor today, and he just bought a few gadgets in exchange for it.
. If he borrows more money, his wife and mother-in-law will probably have to fight him tooth and nail.
"That's not possible!" The seller shook his head resolutely, "How can you go back on what you promised? Otherwise, if you don't have enough money, I'll go with you and get it from home."
At this time, Lan Feiyang felt a movement around him, and when he looked sideways, it was Zhang Yong who had squeezed in beside him.
"Yang..." Seeing Zhang Yong excitedly calling him, Lan Feiyang quickly raised his index finger on his hand and said "shhh".
"Brother farmer, if you really can't do it, you can sell it to me for 30,000 yuan." Fan Ren took the opportunity to shout, "I have enough money with me."
"No, you ended up shouting thirty-eight thousand." The seller shook his head and said, "If you offer thirty-eight thousand, maybe I can consider it."
"Go! He was the one yelling nonsense behind that. He didn't even bring that much money, so it doesn't count!" Fan Ren said domineeringly.
"Uncle?" At this time, Zhang Yong suddenly called out in a low voice.
"Who is your uncle?" Lan Feiyang asked curiously.
Zhang Yong couldn't help but blush: "It's not my uncle. It's my former girlfriend's uncle. Just the boss Zhang who wants to buy jade carvings."
"Oh." Lan Feiyang nodded, "Then why are you so excited?"
Zhang Yong touched his head in embarrassment and said, "I, I just want to know how my girlfriend is doing now. Is she, is she married?"
"Still thinking about me?" Lan Feiyang asked with a smile.
Zhang Yong lowered his head in embarrassment: "In the past few years in the army, I have never forgotten her."
