Chapter 375 The Black-Hearted Innocent Wu Xie

"It's impossible to negotiate. I'm from the capital. How can I negotiate with your local merchants and come here specifically to buy your things?"

Gao Dongxu shook his head and smiled, "You are also a businessman, you should understand that when doing business, you must always calculate the profit clearly when purchasing goods. If there is no profit, no one will do it.

It’s precisely because everyone wants to make money that the prices we offer you are similar…”

"One million and one hundred thousand is too little. Please add a little more." The stall owner said with a wry smile.

Gao Dongxu just smiled at the other party, neither refusing nor raising the price.

"One million and a half, this is the price I can accept. It can't be any lower." Seeing Gao Dongxu didn't say anything, the stall owner said through gritted teeth.

"I'll give you another 200,000, making it 1.3 million. If you sell it, it's a deal. If not, I'll turn around and leave, and I won't look back."

Gao Dongxu also knew that 1.1 million was indeed a bit steep, but not too steep. Adding another 200,000, although it was still steep, he believed that the other party would feel much more comfortable.

"Transfer or credit card—" In the end, the stall owner compromised.
"Swipe the card--" Gao Dongxu handed over a card with a smile. After paying, he began to pack the jade pieces into boxes and put them into his backpack.

After saying goodbye to the boss who was closing up his stall, Gao Dongxu put on his backpack and continued to buy goods. Although there were no big leaks, there were quite a few small ones. He could still make a good profit by selling them in Zhenbao Pavilion.

At the same time, he also collected a lot of yellow five-yuan from the second-generation RMB to accumulate cash reserves for the Siheyuan World.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, Gao Dongxu walked out of the antique market. His backpack was full and he did not continue shopping. Collecting antiques is a long-term job. It is impossible to get all the antiques in the world at once. There is no need to worry about missing out on any rare treasures, because there will never be a shortage of treasures in the market.

Moreover, he really has no shortage of rare treasures. There are 127 national treasures unearthed from Mount Qi in his space.

To be honest, with 14 billion in cash lying around in his space, he is now really wealthy and doesn't have the same urgent desire to make money as before.

For him, the antique business has only three core uses: a way to launder money, to find a carrier of spiritual energy, and to provide a safety net for his life.

The Land Rover stopped at the gate of Xiling Society. Gao Dongxu got out of the car, closed the door and locked the car, then walked into Xiling Society.

"Welcome... eh?!" Meng Chao, who was flipping through an album of ancient coins at the counter, heard the noise and instinctively stood up to greet the customer. However, when he saw Gao Dongxu, who was smiling, he was suddenly startled. He quickly smiled and said, "Sir, what would you like to buy?"

"I came here just to have a look around—" Gao Dongxu raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly.

"Are you here because of your reputation? Friends from out of town? Please take a seat, Xiao Chao, make some tea—"

"Okay, okay, boss—" Meng Chao gave Gao Dongxu a wry smile, walked out of the counter and started to work.

At this time, a man walked out from the archway in the store. Gao Dongxu smiled and looked over, only to see Qin Hao, um, it was the naive Wu Xie.

Gao Dongxu immediately understood that this was the Sand Sea version of the Evil Emperor Wu Xie, but he was not the Evil Emperor yet. Just looking at his almost innocent and silly eyes, you could tell how innocent the original Wu Xie was.

When people said they came here because of its reputation, he took it seriously and even invited his out-of-town friends to sit down and serve tea. . . . .

"I'm Wu Xie, the owner of this antique shop—"

"Hello, Boss Wu, I'm from Beijing. I heard from a friend that the things at Xiling Society in Hangzhou are good. I came to Hangzhou on business this time and came to take a look." Gao Dongxu smiled and shook hands with the innocent Wu Xie.

"Welcome, welcome, please sit down--" Wu Xie smiled innocently and warmly welcomed Gao Dongxu. Of course, the reason for his enthusiasm was that when Wu Xie was in the inner room, he saw Gao Dongxu getting out of the Land Rover through the window.

Wu Xie is indeed very naive, but naivety does not mean stupidity. He drives a Land Rover with the license plate G11111 from Shanghai, so he is definitely a wealthy man.

"Hey, look at my brain, I forgot to ask, what's your last name?" Wu Xie asked Gao Dongxu, looking at his annoyed expression.

"Gao——" Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

"Mr. Gao, you can rest assured. We at Xiling Society may not be able to say anything else, but we can absolutely guarantee that the things are genuine." Wu Xie made the guarantee with a bright smile.

"That's great. To be honest, I've been collecting for a few years, and I've bought a lot of fakes and been cheated a lot, spending a lot of money. What I hate most are people who sell fakes. In my opinion, it's okay if things are a little more expensive, as long as they are authentic." Gao Dongxu took the teacup from Meng Chao, whose mouth twitched unnaturally for a few times, and said to Wu Xie with a smile.

"In my store, Mr. Gao, you can rest assured. There are absolutely no fakes or counterfeits. If you buy one, you can just take down my sign--" Wu Xie smiled with his eyes bright. He was so happy in his heart. As long as he could make this rich man's business today, he could lie down and relax for a year or two.

"Okay, since Boss Wu is so confident in his guarantee, I feel relieved. Then, I'll just take a look first--" Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

"Okay, take a look at whatever you like. If you tell me which one you like, I will definitely give you a discount." Wu Xie smiled happily and stood up with Gao Dongxu.

Gao Dongxu smiled and said, "Boss Wu, don't worry about me. I'll just take a look first—"

"Well, feel free to—"

Wu Xie said with a smile, looking at the back of Gao Dongxu who began to carefully look at the antiques in the store, then raised his eyebrows and signaled to Meng Chao with his eyes.

Meng Chao nodded imperceptibly to show that he understood, but he was speechless in his heart. Wu Xie signaled him to raise the price of everything, but Wu Xie had no idea what kind of existence he was facing.

You know, in Meng Chao's eyes, Gao Dongxu was a high-ranking figure who could change people's fates with a single word, looking down on everyone. He and Wu Xie were merely pawns on this figure's chessboard, manipulated at his will.

"Please take out this copybook and let me see it--" Gao Dongxu said with a smile, pointing to a copybook in the cabinet.

"Yes, sir—" Meng Chao hurried forward, unlocked the box, and took out the calligraphy copybook. He carefully unfolded it and introduced it, "This is 'Renri Tie', written by Ming Dynasty painter, calligrapher, writer, and poet Wen Huiming for another Ming Dynasty poet, Tang Zhen..."

Gao Dongxu looked up at Meng Chao and said with a smile, "Little brother, you know everything about this."

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you." Meng Chao smiled a little embarrassedly.

"How much?" Gao Dongxu asked lightly as he lowered his head and carefully appreciated the words on the copybook.

Meng Chao looked at Wu Xie at this time. Wu Xie nodded at him. Meng Chao smiled and said, "36——"

Where Wu Xie couldn't see, Meng Chao made the number 18 with his fingers on the counter.

18 million.

Gao Dongxu smiled slightly, and his little innocence was also quite dark.

"Not bad." Gao Dongxu gave an affirmative answer, and pointed to an inkstone and said, "This inkstone——"

"Okay, please wait a moment--" Meng Chao reached out to take it again.

Meng Chao placed the inkstone on the counter and introduced it, "Inscribed by Wu Changshuo, this is a clog inkstone from the reign of Emperor Duanzong of the Song Dynasty, collected by Wang Wenbo during the Qing Dynasty. It has been passed down through generations, and the price is 60..."

Gao Dongxu looked at Meng Chao's three fingers and smiled.

"Very good—bring out these seals so I can see them—"

"OK..."

"This one is a pair of dragon-shaped Shoushan hibiscus stone seals carved by Qi Baishi. It was used by Cao Kun, the President of the Republic of China, and it costs 80 yuan. These four pieces are a set of seals, and they cost 12 yuan..."

Just as Gao Dongxu was marveling at the Wu family's accumulation of three generations of good things, he picked up the seal that looked like pork belly among the four seals. A chill came over him, making Gao Dongxu's eyes light up. He tried it and found that the spiritual energy was rich and full.

He calmly turned over the seal and looked at the two words "Cong Yun" on the seal. His brain immediately started working, searching for the two words "Cong Yun" in his memory.

Finally, Gao Dongxu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, but he quickly suppressed it again and put down the Congyun seal of pork belly with a calm expression.

Gao Dongxu looked at a few more pieces and said to Wu Xie with a smile, "Boss Wu, these are all I have. Can you give me a discount on the price?"

"Of course, don't worry, I will definitely give you the biggest discount..." Wu Xie immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face and said to Gao Dongxu, "Well, for this copy of 'Ren Ri Tie', you can just give 30. As for the Song Dynasty Duanzong's sandal inkstone, since it has been passed down in an orderly manner, the price is a little higher. I will give you 55, so you can give me .

This seal is definitely worth the price. It's a masterpiece by Qi Baishi, and it's also by Cao Kun, a historical figure who served as president. The combined value makes 80 yuan really quite affordable."

"Haha, then these four seals can be cheaper, after all, they are not famous." Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

"Okay, if you're happy, I'm happy too. So, you can just give me 6 for these four seals." Wu Xie said as if he was really generous and happy.

Gao Dongxu smiled, looked at Wu Xie and said, "There are a few more items. Please give your price."

"good..."

After Wu Xie finished quoting his price, Gao Dongxu said with a smile, "How about this, all of these together for two million?"

"This..." Wu Xie looked entangled and embarrassed, and finally said with a pained look: "Mr. Gao, you really are good at bargaining. Okay, I'll get you a repeat customer, two million is two million."

"Okay, pack up everything and give me the invoice." Gao Dongxu said with a faint smile.

"If I don't have an invoice, is a receipt okay?" Wu Xie asked with a smile, his eyes rolling.

"Okay." Gao Dongxu said with a faint smile.

"Xiao Chao, quickly get the boxes and bags and pack them up for Mr. Gao—" Wu Xie quickly issued the invoice and said to Meng Chao.

"Okay, boss." Meng Chao did not hesitate and quickly packed the box and put it into the handbag.

After everything was packed, Wu Xie also issued the receipt. He looked at Gao Dongxu and asked with a smile, "Mr. Gao, are you paying by card or by bank transfer?"

"Cash, wait a moment--" Gao Dongxu then walked out of the store, opened the car door, took a bulging travel bag from the car, walked back into the store, put the travel bag on the counter, unzipped it, and took out the money.
