After wandering for about half an hour, Qiao Meng finally found Chen Shicheng and his party. He was very happy when he saw that Jin Long seemed to have bought something, so he went up and asked: "Brother Jin Long, did you find anything good?"
It’s my baby, I’m so happy.”
"Why did you find it here? Hehe, this baby is really good-looking. Shicheng also said it was pretty good, so I bought it." Jin Long said with a satisfied look on his face.
"Oh? Really? Let me see what kind of treasure it is." Qiao Meng was a little curious about this. After all, Chen Shicheng was not an antique novice, so he should have some skills to make him think of something good.
"No, it's this jade plaque. How about it? Isn't it beautiful?" Jin Long said proudly.
Qiao Meng took a crystal clear jade plaque from his hand, with a dragon character engraved on it. No wonder Jinlong liked it so much. It must be for this reason. Moreover, the natural lines on the jade plaque are also golden.
It looks more noble and the overall look is quite aristocratic.
However, the result of the treasure appraisal ability made Qiao Meng not as happy as Jinlong, because there was something wrong with this jade tablet.
This identification result shows that the weight of the jade plaque is not the normal proportion of jade. This is something Qiao Meng felt was abnormal when he got started. Secondly, this is not jade material, but shoddy water foam.
Either of these two points is enough to prove that the thing Jinlong bought is fake and worthless.
"Brother Jinlong, how much did you spend on this thing?" Qiao Meng asked after pondering for a while.
"What? Is there something wrong? I spent almost a million to buy it." Jin Long felt that the situation might be a little bad, but he still didn't want it to be true.
"Brother Jinlong, let me tell you this, if this sign is really made of jade, and the decorations on it, it will definitely be worth the nearly one million you spent on it." Qiao Meng said with a breath.
"Then what if it's not?" Jin Long had already guessed the result, but he still wanted to comfort himself.
"If not, you will lose even if you spend 10,000 yuan."
Although no one wanted to see such a result, Qiao Meng still had to tell the truth. After all, that was the truth. If he had to lie to himself, maybe Jin Long could do it, but Qiao Meng couldn't.
Jin Long had completely lost his smile at this time, and the others around him were even more silent, especially Chen Shicheng who felt deeply guilty for this.
Because everyone knows that he is a very emotional person. As long as something does not go well, he will definitely find a way to vent. At this time, no amount of persuasion is useless. He can only deal with it with silence, hoping that he can calm down.
Don't do anything extreme.
"Xiao Meng, tell me straight away, is this a jade medal of mine?" Jin Long said, already restraining his emotions.
"No, it's made from a material called water foam..." Qiao Meng said as he saw Jin Long turning around and running in a certain direction.
Chen Shicheng and others immediately rushed to pull him back.
"Ah Jin, don't be impulsive. This thing is all my fault. If I hadn't been so sure, you wouldn't have spent the unjust money to buy it." In order to stop the hot-tempered Jin Long, Chen Shicheng took all the responsibilities on himself.
On the body.
"I don't mean to blame you. It was that guy who lied to us. I want to go to him to settle the score. I can't just take it easy." Jin Long said through gritted teeth.
"Ah Jin! What do you want to do!" Wang Zhe saw that the situation was already a bit critical, so he ignored his feelings and shouted sternly to Jin Long.
"I..." In fact, the person Jin Long listened to the most here was Wang Zhe. As long as he was unhappy, he would not dare to be too presumptuous. When he was very young, he was able to survive because of Wang Zhe's favor, no matter in life.
The expenses are still academic help, and even the current business dealings would not be so easy to start without Wang Zhe's connection.
It can be said that without Wang Zhe, today's Golden Dragon would not be possible, so as long as he is scolded, he will calm down no matter how dissatisfied he is.
"I know you are angry now, but you can't act on impulse. This is a ghost market. It is not a free transaction. There is no contract and no guarantee. Buying and leaving is like gambling. Don't you know? Now that you have made this decision
I decided not to go back on my word now, are you still going to cause trouble on my territory?"
Wang Zhe was obviously very angry. Jin Long was so irrational. If no one stopped him, he would destroy the whole place.
"Brother Wang, I know I was wrong." Jin Long looked at Wang Zhe and his face turned red with anger. He dared not say anything to settle the score with that person, so he could only bow his head and admit his mistake with a correct attitude.
"You, you, you are in your thirties, why don't you have any brains? Don't blame Shicheng for this. We don't understand this business very well, just like others don't understand that they will lose money when betting on stones.
, be more open-minded and learn what you will not suffer losses from." Wang Zhe then calmed down.
"Yes, I understand." Jin Long nodded and said.
"Okay, hurry up and ask Xiaomeng what's going on. Moreover, this Shuimozi is obviously the basic knowledge that our jade industry should understand the difference. I just left for a while and you made such a mistake. It's too shameful." Wang Zhe shook.
He shook his head and was very disappointed with several people.
In fact, when they took a fancy to this jade plaque just now, they originally wanted Wang Zhe to analyze it, but before they could say anything, he rushed to the toilet to release his "soul".
Then several of them took a look at the texture of this thing. Chen Shicheng analyzed the texture decoration and process design. As a result, everyone forgot the simplest material issue, and the dragon character on it was even larger than the golden dragon.
The love for it has led to the development to the current situation.
When Wang Zhe returned to the crowd, they had already paid and walked elsewhere. Jin Long was so happy with the jade plaque in his hand that he didn't notice that he was back, while he continued to look around to see.
Can you find something you like?
At this time, Qiao Meng and Ge Yuling followed, and what happened just now happened.
The people around them felt a little scared and confused when they heard the commotion here. They thought a fight was about to start, so they hurriedly hid aside. Even some stall owners nearby used large pieces to sell their things.
Covered with fabric.
It's not that they're afraid of being robbed or stolen, but that they're afraid that when they fight, those things will attack each other, and then everything gets messed up, and there's no way to recover and lose money, and there's nowhere to talk about it.
Jin Long's inner emotions gradually calmed down. The reason why he was so angry was because it was his first time to make a move in an unfamiliar industry and he suffered such a big hidden loss.
If he had bought a piece of completely broken wool today while gambling on stones, he wouldn't be so angry, but he was too unwilling to do so.
Several people came to Qiao Meng together, and Jin Long said with shame: "Xiao Meng, please tell us how to tell that this thing is fake."
Seeing their sincere looks, Qiao Meng and Ge Yuling looked at each other and then motioned for them to come around and said: "Actually, this is not a difficult thing, but if you don't pay attention, you will be fooled."
"Oh, Xiao Meng, please stop being so pretentious and just say it directly." Chen Shicheng quickly urged Qiao Meng when he heard that he was still talking in circles.
"Okay, here's the thing, Shuimozi, I think even if you didn't pay attention to it for a while, you would at least remember that it is something that has the same origin as jade, but its texture is just like glass and is not valuable at all." Qiao Meng said.
He took a breath and continued.
"The difference between this water foam and its heavy weight is that its specific gravity is lighter than that of jade or jade. Anyone with some experience should be able to feel the difference when holding it in their hands."
After hearing this, several people were so ashamed that they wanted to find a hole in the ground to bury themselves. They actually made such low-level mistakes. It really shouldn't be done, even if they don't know how to distinguish the authenticity of antiques.
However, this thing also contained jade-related knowledge that they could use, but they still ignored it. Who could blame them for this situation, they could only blame themselves for being too careless.
"Well, Xiaomeng, apart from the jade identification accident, what difference can there be if this jade plaque is identified using the antique shop's identification method?"
Chen Shicheng knew that he was the main key to this major mistake, so he naturally wanted to learn more identification methods to make up for his mistakes.
"Brother Chen is really smart. There are indeed other ways to tell whether this thing is a real antique." Qiao Meng said with a slight smile.
"How can I say that I am smart? I have been deceived. Please tell me your method so that we can learn more." Chen Shicheng said very humbly.
In fact, Qiao Meng felt very confused at this point. He looked up and down at Chen Shicheng, trying to see something on his face, but found nothing.
Judging from his previous understanding of Chen Shicheng, such a low-level mistake should not be made. If he is really so good, how could he have been in the black market for so long, and he has good relations with the insiders of many of them.
, could it be that you approached Chen Shicheng because you knew that he didn’t know much about antiques, so it was easy to get money out of him?
This is obviously not the case, because on the surface, Chen Shicheng is not a very rich man. It can only mean that he is probably acting.
But why should he perform this show here? He lost 800,000 gold dragons in vain, so what good would it do to him? Everything is unknown, and things are getting more and more confusing.
The only thing that can be determined at present is that Chen Shicheng's identity must not be simple. Today's intentional mistake is probably just to deceive others. As for whether it was done to Qiao Meng, only he knows in his heart.
"Xiao Meng, what's wrong with you?" Chen Shicheng asked, seeing Qiao Meng staring at him without speaking, wagging five fingers in front of his eyes.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just thought about how to identify the authenticity of this thing and I didn't come back to it for a while." Qiao Meng smiled slightly awkwardly.
