After negotiating with the boss, He Qing took out the money from his bag to settle the bill. He had prepared more than 10,000 yuan in cash. For an antique dealer like him who often goes shopping for treasures, it would be convenient if he didn't bring some cash.
.
After the money was paid, the boss packed up the rhino horn wine glass and handed it to He Qing.
At this point, He Qing successfully got what he wanted.
Later, He Qing took Gu Qing and left the stall. After taking the things, the next thing He Qing had to do was to find someone to appraise them and then price them. Although he was not sure whether the things were valuable, he was sure that he
You won’t lose money. These are authentic rhino horns, not so-called bison horns. You can buy rhinoceros horns for 15,000 bison horns. They are still exquisite carvings. It’s weird that you don’t make money.
"He Qing, why did you buy this thing without thinking about it?" After walking away, Gu Qing asked in a low voice. At this moment, she frowned slightly, and there seemed to be some doubts in her eyes.
He Qing said with a smile: "I like this thing better, so I bought it without much thought. Gu Qing, do you think this thing is worth the money?"
Gu Qing shook his head gently and replied: "I don't know very well. But you are indeed a bit hasty. Don't you think the boss is lying? I'm afraid he is making up stories to deceive you? He said that this thing has been communicated to others.
After we have negotiated, the man has already withdrawn the money, and we will come and make a deal with him right away. Don’t you think it’s a bit fake? There are too many stories made up in this industry, and I generally don’t believe all kinds of excuses. So I think you really like it
We can actually negotiate with him for the price of this item, based on the twelve thousand he said at the beginning."
He Qing nodded and said: "Maybe, but everything has been sold, it's too late to regret that the price is too high! Forget it, it won't be much different anyway."
In fact, He Qing naturally thought of this just now, but in this case, he would rather believe it or not. If it is true, wouldn't it be possible to pass by good things and buy and sell them?
Antiques are inherently risky, it’s just a question of how big the risk is.
"That's true." Gu Qing smiled sweetly and said, "You have picked up so many leaks before, and they were all big leaks. This small amount of money is nothing, right?"
"Haha, yes." He Qing nodded with a smile, "Just think of it as just having fun and learning."
The two chatted and laughed. After a while, two people walked towards each other, one of whom was Lin Haiqing.
The man walking next to Lin Haitao, He Qing, had never seen him before. He was a young man of similar age to them. He was of medium build, with long hair and a mustache, and small eyes, but he was relatively handsome.
"Brother He, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." Lin Haitao walked up and said with a smile, "Let me introduce you first, this is my brother, Dewey, haha, you can tell by his appearance, he is engaged in art.
, but I studied sports before. Xiaowei, they are my friends from the antique shop, He Qing and Gu Qing. This friend is not simple, he has a very good eye and has found a lot of treasures!"
"Hello. It's an honor to meet you." Dewey extended his hand to He Qing and others politely, shaking hands and saying hello.
After everyone met and got to know each other, Gu Qing suddenly said casually: "Haitao, when you were not here, He Qing bought something. It is a sculpture of bamboo, wood, tooth horns, etc. It is in pretty good condition. I heard it is
It's made of bison horn, but I think it's a bit expensive, I don't know what you think."
"Oh, really?" After hearing what Gu Qing said, Lin Haitao immediately became interested, so he quickly asked He Qingdao: "Brother He, what good thing is it?"
"Oh, I don't know how it is yet. I feel pretty good about myself," He Qing replied.
"Can you take it out and show it to me?" Lin Haitao became curious and said, "Brother He, you always pick up good things without saying a word. You can even take out the large blue and white jars from the Ming Dynasty.
What else can’t you afford?”
"Of course, it's nothing." He Qing nodded and agreed without hesitation. Since Gu Qing mentioned it, let's take it out and show it to him as soon as possible, so that he can take care of it, so that he can feel at ease earlier.
Come down.
He Qing still trusted Lin Haitao's eyesight, and he was relieved to have him help with the appraisal.
However, He Qing did not show the things immediately, but said to Lin Haitao and the others: "Brother Lin, let's find a place to sit down and watch. Are you thirsty? How about we go get some drinks?"
This place is bustling with people, and as the saying goes, "wealth is not revealed," if the item is a treasure and is discovered by other people passing by, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
"Well, okay." Lin Haitao nodded and agreed.
Then the four of them found an ice bar near the exit of Temple Street and walked in.
"Brother Lin, this is it." After sitting down and ordering drinks, He Qing carefully took out the rhinoceros horn sculpture and placed it on the table for Lin Haitao and the others to admire.
"Hey, this is the ancient 'helpless wine glass'!"
When he saw it, Lin Haitao was surprised and said excitedly: "Brother He, yes! This thing is good, how much did you just buy it for?!"
"Fifteen thousand." He Qing replied, "Gu Qing said it's a bit expensive, what do you think?"
"It's not expensive!" Lin Haitao shook his head without thinking, and said, "What good things can you buy for fifteen thousand now? This thing is probably very old. It is a kind of drinking utensil from ancient times."
"Oh, that's it?" He Qing suddenly said, "Brother Lin, what's the meaning of the wine glass? What's the term? I don't know much about this kind of thing, and I've never seen it before."
Lin Haitao explained in detail: "Wei Nai He is also called 'Wei Nai He'. This is a form of wine glass. It is made from the front tip of an animal horn. The bottom is pointed and cannot be put down. The wine can only be drunk in one go."
It’s all gone, so it’s called ‘nothing can be done’. Do you understand now? What an image! Brother He, can you get your hands on it and take a closer look?”
He Qing hurriedly said: "Why not?! Brother Lin, why are you being polite to me? What kind of animal do you think this horn is made of? Is it from a bison?"
He tentatively asked about the situation, but Lin Haitao did not answer immediately. Instead, he carefully picked up the animal horn cup and inspected it in detail.
Lin Haitao's face changed more and more as he watched. Later, he turned slightly red and seemed to have become very excited.
I saw that in addition to looking, he also touched with his hands, smelled with his nose, and even tasted with his mouth.
In the end, his eyes were solemn and his face looked thoughtful.
"Brother Congratulations, it's a good thing, a great thing!" Finally, Lin Haitao spoke, and said in a very excited tone, "This is not an ordinary bison horn, but a rhino horn. Yes, it must be an Asian rhino horn! This mouthful
But the carvings on He cup are also exquisite and valuable! Brother He, congratulations, you missed it again. What you collected for less than 20,000 yuan turned out to be a very old rhino horn wine cup. This is not a small leak.
!!”
