"Shopkeeper Zhang, don't you refuse to accept it?" Qin Yu stopped, but did not turn around and walk back to the store.
"It's like this. Although I won't accept it, those of us who open antique shops will inevitably deal with some bosses who are interested in collecting. If the items are good, I can help you contact these bosses." Shopkeeper Zhang said while rubbing his hands.
.
"That's right, that's fine." Qin Yu nodded, secretly winked at Cao Xuan where shopkeeper Zhang couldn't see him, and then followed shopkeeper Zhang into the shop with a smile.
"Boss Qin, can you take out the "Imperial Edict" for the old man to taste now?" Old Man Zhang asked with a smile while scanning Qin Yu and the others.
"Of course this is no problem."
Qin Yu nodded. Cao Xuan on the side opened a briefcase in his hand, took out a roll of something wrapped in red cloth, untied a red rope tied outside, and opened the red cloth.
, revealing a scroll of yellow satin inside.
Cao Xuan was about to open the yellow scroll, but was stopped by Qin Yu, "Put it on the table and let Shopkeeper Zhang taste it himself."
Cao Xuan doesn't understand the rules of the antique business, but Qin Yu understands that in this kind of antique appreciation process, the owner usually puts the antique down and then the appraiser opens it for viewing. This means that the object has been passed on. In this case,
If something goes wrong, it's the taster's responsibility.
In fact, this kind of rule was first introduced from porcelain and jade. Everyone knows that jade and porcelain are very fragile. If the owner holds it in his hand for guests to see, and if it accidentally breaks, who is responsible?
Therefore, there is a rule in the antique business. The owner puts the antiques on the coffee table or desk, and after confirming that they are safe, the latter takes over. In this way, if something goes wrong, it is obvious who will take responsibility.
Cao Xuan placed the imperial edict on the table. Shopkeeper Zhang naturally understood this rule. He waited until Cao Xuan's hands completely left before carefully opening the yellow silk satin.
After opening it just an inch, shopkeeper Zhang's eyes lit up. With his eyesight, he had already made a 70-80% judgment in his heart that this imperial edict should be true.
The imperial edict was created during the Qin Shihuang period, and the small seal font was used at that time. This meets the two most basic points. In addition, the yellow silk and satin used in this imperial edict also feels very consistent with the clothing-making technology of the Qin Dynasty.
With this preliminary judgment, shopkeeper Zhang's eyes flashed with joy, he picked up a magnifying glass from the side and began to read word by word.
To be honest, if it is just an imperial edict, even if it is from the Qin Dynasty, shopkeeper Zhang may not accept it. The risk is too great. If it is missed, he will lose a lot, but this is what Qin Shihuang gave him.
As long as the imperial edict promulgated by the ministers contains the words "Qin Shihuang", it is worth taking the risk.
Because shopkeeper Zhang knew very well that if this imperial edict was true, he would be able to earn a price difference of more than five times and a huge profit of more than seven figures if he took it back according to the market price and then transferred it to someone else. What could he do?
Don't be tempted.
Half an hour later, Shopkeeper Zhang finally put down the magnifying glass in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief. After his judgment, all the characteristics of this imperial edict were in line with the characteristics of the imperial edict of the Qin Dynasty at that time. Next, he only needed to take this edict with him.
Just do a carbon identification.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, it's okay if you want to take this imperial edict for carbon identification, but I have a request. Since you don't accept this imperial edict, but contact other bosses, then for the price of this imperial edict, I will have to negotiate with that boss myself."
Talk, of course, if the deal is concluded, shopkeeper Zhang will be given five points of intermediary contact fee." Qin Yu said with a smile.
"this……"
Shopkeeper Zhang was stunned. He originally planned to collect it himself after confirming the authenticity of the imperial edict and sell it to those people, but what Boss Qin said meant that he wanted to meet the people over there directly.
Thinking of this, shopkeeper Zhang regretted why he was so quick to talk before the other party took out the things. No one was a fool, and the other party also understood this. It seemed that he wanted to buy it himself this time.
This edict is very difficult.
"Boss Qin, you can refer to the market price for the price of this imperial edict from the Qin Dynasty. If I want to take it, old man, the price will definitely not be less than the market price. Don't worry." Shopkeeper Zhang didn't give up and wanted to give it one last try.
For a moment, Qin Yu just smiled and shook his head.
"Since Boss Qin must talk to his boss in person, that's fine. I'll call you and inquire." Shopkeeper Zhang was at his wits end, because this is an antique street with many shops. If these people go there with the imperial edict,
Other shops and the owners of those shops also knew the tricks, and by then he would not be able to take a sip of soup.
If he is just a middleman, he will also be given an intermediary fee there. In addition to the 5 points here, he will earn hundreds of thousands, and all he needs is to make a phone call. He will earn less than nothing.
You have to make good money.
After thinking about this, Shopkeeper Zhang got up and walked inside to make a phone call. When Shopkeeper Zhang turned around, Qin Yu and the four of them exchanged glances. The bait had been put out, and now they were waiting for the fish to take the bait.
.
This imperial edict was of course a real imperial edict from the Qin Dynasty, and it was indeed issued by Qin Shihuang to one of his ministers. However, this imperial edict existed in a certain museum and was temporarily recalled by Emperor Ling.
"Bosses, please wait a moment. The boss is coming over."
After hanging up the phone, Shopkeeper Zhang shouted at the clerk to serve tea and water to Qin Yu and the other four. This made Qin Yu sigh with emotion. Shopkeeper Zhang was really realistic. They had been sitting here for so long, and he alone
It took almost half an hour to taste the imperial edict. During this period, the four of them were not poured a cup of tea. Now that they knew they might have money, their service attitude suddenly changed.
After tea time, a voice sounded at the door of the store: "Shopkeeper Zhang, I'm here. Where is the holy edict?"
As soon as the voice came out, a middle-aged man led the two of them towards the store. Because Qin Yu and his party were facing the store, they did not see the middle-aged man's face immediately. Similarly,
The middle-aged man did not see the faces of Qin Yu and others at first glance.
However, when he heard this voice, Qin Yu paused while tapping his fingers casually on the table, because this voice made him feel like he had heard some book prefaces somewhere before.
But soon, Qin Yu remembered where he had heard this sound. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and then he slowly turned around.
"Boss Tong is here, come in and have tea. These bosses want to sell imperial edicts. I have tasted them and they should be genuine." Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly greeted him, but when the boss Tong was about to walk in,
But they happened to meet Qin Yu's eyes, who turned around.
Qin Yu looked at the copper boss with a half-smile but not a smile. However, the moment the copper boss saw Qin Yu, he was dumbfounded. His face suddenly turned pale, but his eyes were filled with laughter.
Showing fear.
"Boss Tong, what's wrong with you? Is it because the sun is shining outside and you have heat stroke?" Shopkeeper Zhang asked with concern when he saw Boss Tong's lips turned white and sweat on his face.
"I may have something to do today, so I'll leave first." The Tong boss turned around and was about to leave. Cao Xuan and Ling Di, who were sitting on the chairs, changed their expressions. Did the Tong boss recognize them?
"Boss Tong, since you're here, why bother leaving so quickly? It's so sunny, wouldn't it be better to sit down and have a cup of tea to cool off the heat?" Qin Yu spoke and said slowly.
However, Qin Yu's words seemed to have some kind of magic power. After hearing Qin Yu's words, the copper boss stopped immediately, and then showed a smile that was uglier than crying, "Yes, drink tea, drink tea."
good."
The behavior of this copper boss finally made Shopkeeper Zhang and Ling Di realize that something was wrong. This copper boss seemed to be very afraid of Qin Yu.
"Qin Yu, do you know this person?" Meng Yao whispered in Qin Yu's ear.
Qin Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied: "Of course I know him. He was the one who led people to dig my grave."
puff!
As soon as Qin Yu said these words, Meng Yao almost spat out a mouthful of saliva and quickly covered her mouth, then stared at the copper boss with a strange look.
By this time, everyone must have known the identity of the copper boss. It was the copper boss who led the people to rob Shun's tomb. However, Emperor Shun's body was not found, and Qin Yu was dug out instead.
.
Can Tong Laosi not be afraid when he sees Qin Yu? He saw the strength that Qin Yu showed with his own eyes. This is a terrifying and powerful man who has truly stepped out of the grave.
Even after that incident, Tong Laosi secretly swore in his heart that he would never go to Guangxi again in this life, just because he was afraid of meeting that person again, but he didn't expect that he would hide in Xi'an and not be able to get out.
, still met this person.
"Sit down." Qin Yu glanced at Tong Laosi. Tong Laosi quickly said "Hey", then sat down on the side of the table, his buttocks only dared to move a third of the way, and looked towards him tremblingly.
Qin Yu.
"Take me to meet the general behind you." Since he met Tong Laosi, Qin Yu decided to change his strategy and go straight to the point, instead of luring the general step by step as originally planned.
"This..." Tong Laosi showed a tangled look on his face. If anyone else had proposed this condition to him, he would have left long ago, but he didn't dare to face the person in front of him.
"Well... I..." Tong Laosi wanted to say that he didn't know any generals, but when Qin Yu glanced at him, Tong Laosi immediately changed his mind, "I... I want to call and ask.
Whether the general will agree to it or not, I can't decide on this matter." (To be continued)
