"Tang Fei, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Yating saw that Young Master Tang was holding a bronze mirror in his hand and started to feel dazed again, so she couldn't help but poke him on the shoulder.
"Hehe, it's okay, something good has happened, Ah Hu and Ah Bao, you may be troubled in a while..." Young Master Tang chuckled.
"Troubled? Haha, Mr. Tang, if you have anything to do, just ask me." Ahu said with a smile.
"That's right, Mr. Tang, you're still telling us how to be burdened. Of course we're not here just to enjoy ourselves..." Abao also said.
Seeing what Ah Hu and Ah Bao said, Tang Da smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Zheng Yating and said, "Tingting, how much cash did you bring?"
"Well, it's not much. It's more than ten thousand pounds, which is enough for us." Zheng Yating replied.
"More than 10,000 pounds? It seems not enough. Is there an ATM near here? I can get some first." Tang Dashao said.
"More than ten thousand pounds is not enough? What on earth are you going to do?" Zheng Yating was a little confused. According to the exchange rate, ten thousand pounds is equivalent to nearly one hundred thousand Chinese dollars. So much cash is not enough?
"Not enough, I want to buy something..." Tang Dashao said.
"Buying something? These?" Zheng Yating pointed to the stalls on the ground.
"Well, I need to buy a lot..." Mr. Tang said.
"Then there's no need to withdraw cash. Many people here have POS machines and you can swipe credit cards directly..." Zheng Yating said.
pos machine?
Young Master Tang was in a daze after hearing this...
Some street vendors also use POS machines?
Is it too luxurious?
How many things here are worth paying with a credit card?
soon……
Young Master Tang knew that he was wrong...
Things are not cheap here...
When Young Master Tang brought Zheng Yating to a place selling stone statues, he did not ask for anything else, but pointed at one of the Buddha heads for Zheng Yating to buy. Zheng Yating exchanged a few words with the stall owner...
Then Zheng Yating turned to look at Young Master Tang and said, "What on earth is such a Buddha head? He asked for a very high price, and said that this thing is the most valuable thing he has here..."
Young Master Tang was stunned when he heard this. The most valuable thing?
This sentence is true, but how does he know that this is the most valuable thing?
Seeing that Young Master Tang was shocked after hearing this, he couldn't help but said: "He said this thing is the Buddha head from the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang, China. It has high artistic value, so the price is relatively expensive, costing 10,000 pounds. He has some other ones on his stall.
Stone carvings, these are cheaper..."
Young Master Tang felt depressed after hearing this...
I thought I was going to miss it again at the street vendor. Who knows what this thing is? Mr. Tang has never visited the Longmen Grottoes in person, but he can still know from the photos circulated on the Internet.
Many Buddha statues have no heads. Most of them were cut up and eradicated during the war and then sold...
The Buddha head I see now is not that big, just a little bigger than an adult's fist. The carving has been polished by wind and sand, and the face is not clearly visible, but such a Buddha head actually costs 10,000 pounds...
…
Ten thousand pounds? It’s almost one hundred thousand Chinese coins. To be honest, this thing has almost the same psychological value as Young Master Tang. If you buy it like this, it is definitely not a missing piece, but a normal transaction...
However, although this Buddha head was not considered a miss, Young Master Tang had no intention of giving up. He directly asked Zheng Yating to swipe his card, then repackage it and take it away...
Then he ran to another place non-stop...
This vendor sells jewelry. There are many jewelry in his stall, including modern handicrafts and cultural relics. Some of them are in Western style, and some of them have a distinct oriental style...
Young Master Tang didn't say anything. He squatted down and took one of the pearl hairpins in his hand and looked at Zheng Yating...
After Zheng Yating had a discussion with the boss, she looked at Young Master Tang and said, "She said this thing came from the Chinese palace and is an antique. The hairpin is very beautiful, so he wants six thousand pounds..."
Young Master Tang nodded lightly when he heard this. This woman knew that this pearl hairpin came from the palace, but she would never know more detailed information. This pearl hairpin belonged to a famous empress dowager in the Qing Dynasty of China.
I've ever worn it...
If it is impossible to verify the origin, the price of this pearl hairpin will be similar to the price offered by the boss, but after verifying the origin, it can be at least ten times higher...
It can be regarded as a small leak...
Immediately afterwards, Young Master Tang ran non-stop to another place...
After going around like this, Mr. Tang found that it was not easy to find something missing here...
The reason is very simple. It’s not that the vendors here are cunning, or that there are no real things, but that there are real things, but the vendors know the prices...
Although they didn't raise prices randomly, if you just want to pick up the slack, forget it...
There are only a few people who don't know the true value of their things, such as the one who first sold bronze mirrors. There are also some people who don't know enough about their things, such as those who sell beads and flowers, but the most common ones are like those who sell Buddha heads.
Same, have enough knowledge about these things...
If you want real things, ok, bring money. The empty-handed approach simply won't work here...
Of course, as long as they are businessmen, there are all kinds of people, and some of them opened their mouths after seeing Young Master Tang and Zheng Yating. However, Young Master Tang ignored them and just turned around and left...
Just kidding, when has Tang Fei ever bought something at a price higher than the original price of the product?
According to Young Master Tang's principles, you can only pick up the slack yourself or deal with each other on an equal footing. There is absolutely no such thing as letting others regard you as someone who has been taken advantage of...
After a round, hundreds of thousands of pounds were gone, and what came back were the things A Hu and A Bao carried on their shoulders...
If it weren't for the fact that Ah Hu and Ah Bao really couldn't carry any more things, Young Master Tang still wouldn't want to leave...
Not for anything else, just for these genuine things!
If you were in China, even if you had so much money, you wouldn't be able to find so many real things...
Fortunately, the ones he bought were all small items, and there were many large items that he didn't buy. It wasn't that he didn't want them, but that he couldn't carry them with him...
For example, a marble screen was used on a Taoist platform in the Qing Dynasty. The patterns and carvings are very gorgeous. If it were auctioned in China, it would be worth millions...
For example, some huanghuali wood furniture, beds, etc. are very valuable for collection, but unfortunately, Mr. Tang can't take them with him...
"Tang Fei, there are enough things. Come and buy them next time..." Zheng Yating said with a smile.
"Well, let's go... wait, I will buy the last one, I guarantee it will be the last one..."
Young Master Tang's voice was a little excited when he spoke...
