Chapter 1021 Pedicure Knife

Qin Qinlei narrowed his eyes and took a closer look at the handwriting on the note, not to mention that these words were indeed very similar to Zuo Xiaoqing's handwriting.

As for the few photos of the master, they were quite blurry, but you can still see the corresponding outlines. It is most likely that the master, Shen Qiu, was right.

But Qin Qinlei would not easily draw conclusions based on just a few photos and handwriting on the note.

He carefully pulled the knives out of the black leather, and vaguely saw that they were several pedicure knives of different shapes and styles, and two of them had the same patterns engraved on the handles.

In about 5 minutes, Qin Qinlei came to a conclusion, but he still tried to ask: "Boss Tao? Can you tell me the origin of this knife first? Then tell me how much you want to sell it for?" "

"Master Qin, as I said just now, this set of knives was left by my ancestors. My ancestors used to work in the palace, and they were imperial workers! What is imperial worker? You probably don't know, Young Master Qin. ? Yugong is the craftsman who shaves the emperor's head and pedicures the emperor in the palace back then, and they are collectively called Yugong! My grandfather even gave Emperor Puyi a pedicure back then!"

"It's just that because of what Puyi did, my grandfather was kicked out of the palace because he usually gave the emperor and empress pedicures. Later, when he came out of the Forbidden City, he faced those poor people. How can your feet be compared with the emperor's dragon feet and the queen's phoenix claws! My grandfather couldn't let go of that figure, so he didn't continue to do this job, and passed down such a set of pedicure tools to our Tao family!"

"Master Qin, as I said just now, these knives are specially made for the emperor's pedicure, so the quality of these knives is absolutely impeccable. They are all selected from the highest and most expensive materials in the palace. The masters who polish them are also craftsmen in the palace. The best! So my set of treasures is definitely a representative of the manufacturing process of the Qing Dynasty, and has extremely high historical research value and craft reference value!"

"It's over!" Qin Qinlei couldn't help but interrupted: "Boss Tao, you don't need to spread the history knowledge of the Qing Dynasty to me here, just tell me straight! How much do you want to sell such a set of knives? "

"Then good young master Qin, I won't go around with you anymore, you know Shen Qiu from Xuanbaozhai, right? The great master of the national teacher list! He gave me this number yesterday!" Tao Dashan raised a finger The head said: "100 million! Me! This person buys and sells things based on popularity. If there is fate, it's okay to give it to you for nothing. If there is no fate, I will not sell it even if I give it 100 million or 200 million! That's it! Master Qin ! If you think this treasure is good, I will give you a 85% discount, how about you give me [-]?"

"Okay, okay! Needless to say! Boss Tao! You should find another place! Your Buddha is too big, and our Changyang Xuan Temple is too small to enshrine it! We really can't accept this price, you go elsewhere Let's take a look at the place!"

"Don't! Master Qin! We haven't known each other for a day or two, and I'm not fooling around with you! If you like this set of knives, I'll give you a 80% discount! Get rid of the odds! [-]! You You should be satisfied, right?"

Qin Qinlei still shook his head: "Boss Tao, first of all, I would like to remind you that Shen Qiu and I have a master-student relationship. He is my Qin Qinlei's master. It stands to reason that our master-student eyes should not differ much. But this time the gap is still very obvious. If you say that he has taken a fancy to your knife, I believe it, but if you insist that he will spend 100 million to buy it, unless my master is out of his mind! Hehe!"

"Also, I want to correct a few points with you. You said that your grandfather was a errand in the palace back then, and even repaired Emperor Puyi's feet. I am deeply skeptical about this. Why? As far as I know, during the Qing Dynasty , whether it is Huang Taiji who opened the dynasty or the last emperor Puyi, all people who do pedicures and shave their heads are eunuchs without exception! jump out to settle accounts with you?"

"Forehead……"

Boss Tao was immediately stunned speechless. This set of stories was designed by himself at home. Who knew there was such a flaw in it.

yes!If my grandfather is a eunuch, where did my father and I come from?

"There is one more thing I need to remind you!" Qin Qinlei pointed to the handles of several pedicure knives and said: "From the handles of these knives, we can see their material and carving texture. Five pedicure knives can be summarized into three different types. In other words, your set of pedicure knives is not a complete set at all, it is also a temporary knives! So Boss Tao, your story is almost over here! After careful analysis, there are loopholes everywhere! I don’t know Sorry to find fault with you!"

Boss Tao was stunned speechless again. The Qin Qinlei in front of him was no longer the rich second generation who ate and waited to die. Everything he said and did was the style of a master.

"Master Qin! All right! What you say is reasonable, so you can make a price! I will give you the price! Let me explain in advance! Your master Shen Qiu gave a price of 30! If I lie to you There are five thunders and bangs!"

"30? Then you should go to my master! This set of knives is from the Qing Dynasty, but it is just an ordinary old object, not an antique! The slightly more valuable one is the crescent moon knife, which is a black spirit. The material of steel, the other few knives are basically not worth mentioning! I will give you a price of 3000 yuan at most! So you go find my master!"

Only three thousand?Boss Tao groaned, not only Changyangxuan of the Qin family, but also a few boutique antique shops outside, all of which did not exceed 1 yuan, and the most outrageous one was only [-] yuan. .

This immediately chilled his heart, and he couldn't understand why it was worth 30 yuan in Shen Qiu's hands, but turned into a few thousand yuan in the hands of other shop owners?

After thinking about it, it is better to sell this treasure to Shen Qiu. None of the bosses who have visited Panjiayuan knows the goods. The biggest doubt is the real value of this knife, what is it worth? ?Where is the preciousness?

Boss Tao left Changyang Xuan resentfully, and was stopped by a little old man with a cyst just after he went out a few steps.

"Stay here! This brother! Please wait!"

Boss Tao stopped and glanced at the little old man, and saw that the little old man was short and fat, wearing a checkered suit with a printed handkerchief tucked into his chest.Putonghua sounded a bit crappy, and the tone didn't sound like a Yanjing person, but rather a Japanese islander's tone, because Yanjing people never called Xiongtai when they greeted each other.

"What's the matter with you? What's the matter?"

"Hi brother, I just passed by Changyang Xuan, and I heard that you are going to sell a treasure! Is it a set of knives? What about me? I have a lot of research on ancient knives, can I take a chance to take a look at your treasure! "

"Oh... I know you! I know you! A few days ago, a photo of you was posted on the Mao family's ultimate gambling game! Your name is Hetian, right! You are the Ridao master who was defeated by Shen Qiu, right!"

Hetian frowned slightly, he didn't expect Yanjing's antique market to be so small, and he could still be recognized by people after walking around on the road, but his inner world was extremely dissatisfied with Shen Qiu, which caused real ripples in his heart.

Originally, he also wanted to fly back to Ridao, but in the end Su Xiang arranged for him to stay in Yanjing for a very clear purpose, only one, to help keep an eye on the unstable factors in Yanjing City.

Coincidentally, he was planning to go to Changyang Pavilion for a stroll, when he heard the conversation between Boss Tao and Qin Qinlei. The special set of knives in Tao Dashan's hand aroused his curiosity.

When Boss Tao walked out the door, he couldn't wait to stop him.

"Brother, I want to see the set of knives in your hand! If the quality and appearance are acceptable, I can pay for it!"

"How much can you pay!" Tao Dashan asked warily.

"If everything is fine, I must offer a higher price than Shen Qiu!"
