Chapter 1103 Test each other
After entering the villa, after a few more chats, Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi went to appraise the antiques, and Yingde chatted with Xie Zhongcheng.

"This...Mr. Xie, why don't we change to another place? Although this place is good, after all, Mr. Fang still has to appraise antiques. I don't think there will be a way to end it for a while. We can't stay here forever, right? "

Xie Zhongzhong didn't come yesterday, so when Yingde came here today, he wanted to have a chat with Fang Ming, but now that he saw Xie Zhongzhong coming, he put his mind on Xie Zhongzhong. He would definitely be able to get more information from Xie Zhongzhong, and... In his opinion, Xie Zhongzhong was much easier to deal with than Fang Ming, so he immediately invited Xie Zhongzhong to find another place to sit.

As for Yingde's thoughts, Xie Zhongzhong guessed it fairly well, nodded and said, "Okay, let's find another place."

Yingde is a villa here, naturally there is no place to sit, the two of them asked the butler to set up a table and set up a parasol on the grass not far away, and then served coffee, with the breeze blowing, it felt very good.

"Mr. Xie, Mr. Fang has been appraising our antiques for several days. I think he already knows the quality of our batch of antiques. I wonder if he has communicated with you?"

Yingde was most concerned about this issue, so after sitting down, he spoke directly without any hesitation.

"Oh, Mr. Yingde, your coffee here is really authentic, I like it very much."

Xie Zhongzhong put down the coffee cup slowly, and then returned to the topic, nodded, and said: "Yes, that's right, what I just said was not polite, although you have a lot of antiques here It’s very ordinary or fake, but overall the quality is very good. I think you can see this from Fang Ming’s packed boxes—the packed boxes are all what we want. stuff, we won't deny that."

This point cannot be hidden from Yingde, after all, it will be bought from the other party in the end, so Xie Zhongcheng answered this question directly.

Yingde was overjoyed, nodded heavily, and said, "It seems that we have a chance to cooperate this time."

"Of course! I also firmly believe in this point! Although I can't tell you how much I will pay you to buy this batch of antiques in your hand - because I still have to wait for Fang Ming to collect all the antiques. I won’t know until after the appraisal, but what I can say is that our bid will definitely not be lower than Tony’s batch, which I can say right now.”

Yingde nodded lightly. Although Xie Zhongzhong's words sounded very beautiful, he actually didn't say anything, because the quantity and quality of the batch of antiques in his hand were better than Tony's, and the value was higher than that of Tony's. It is certain that Tony's offer is higher, and Xie Zhongzhong must have understood this, so he said this - in fact, if Xie Zhongzhong's offer is lower than Tony's batch, he will definitely not agree.

So Xie Zhongzhong just quoted a reserve price.

"I wonder when Fang Ming will be able to complete the appraisal?"

Apart from the price of this batch of antiques, what Yingde is most concerned about now is when Fang Ming will be able to complete the appraisal.

Because once Fang Ming completes the appraisal, the time for the transaction will come. This will directly affect whether Green's plan can be made in time. Before, he hoped that Fang Ming would complete the appraisal earlier so that the transaction could be completed, but now he is I hope it can be a little later, for example, a few days later. That would be a better thing for Green. Even if it can't be late, it's a good thing for him to know in advance.

Xie Zhongzhong's heart moved, and Yingde's intentional inquiring about the time made him a little suspicious.

When Yingde heard Fang Ming say that it only takes seven days, Yingde was still worried that this was too short. At that time, the other party was worried that Fang Ming would not have enough time for the appraisal, which would make the next speed and marriage get into trouble. For example, when talking about the price, there will be disputes. After Fang Ming said that this problem will not exist, he has been relieved.

Now, I deliberately raise this question again. What does it mean?What is the purpose?
Although already suspicious, how could an old Jianghu like Xie Zhongcheng show an expression on his face?

"Oh, the original plan was to take seven days, and the number of completed appraisals has already been quite a lot, but Fang Ming said last night that the next appraisal may not be as fast, because he found that the remaining antiques need to be appraised It is becoming more and more difficult, so it is hard to say whether the appraisal can be completed within the time of Qizai."

Not knowing what Yingde's purpose is, Xie Zhongzhong simply procrastinated the necessary time, which is the safest way:
If Yingde hoped that he and Fang Ming would delay this time a little longer, then this would just reassure the other party—even though they were talking about seven days or more, he could advance it at any time.

If the other party wanted him and Fang Ming to advance the time, then it would be in his own interest to say so.

"Mr. Yingde, do you want us to hurry up?"

Yingde is also an old bird. He didn't deny or admit it, but said: "A little more time or a little less time is the same for us. The most important thing is to identify the real value of those antiques. , This is a good thing, especially for me."

Don't hold back!

Xie Zhongzhong glanced at Yingde, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and said: "Yes, we also think the same way, you must know that our transaction this time is not one or two antiques, but thousands of antiques. The amount is also in the unit of [-] million, which requires both sides to have considerable integrity, if you just want to take advantage, then this transaction will not go ahead."

Yingde's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but look at Xie Zhongzhong.

Is this intentional or unintentional?

If it was intentional, did the other party discover something?
With a ghost in his heart, Yingde naturally couldn't figure out what was going on at once.He wanted to see some clues from Xie Zhongzhong's face, but he found that there was nothing strange on Xie Zhongzhong's face, and he became even more puzzled.

The problem is, even if he is really puzzled in his heart, it is impossible for him to ask this matter, so he just keeps it in his heart, and on the surface he has to agree with Xie Zhongzhong's words.

"Yes, there is nothing wrong. Mr. Xie, what you said is not wrong at all. It is indeed like this."

Xie Zhongzhong also took it as far as he could, and would not say anything more on this issue, as long as it aroused the other party's doubts. In this way, Yingde would definitely be suspicious, which was very beneficial to himself and Fang Ming.

"By the way, Fang Ming also said that if you are in a hurry, you can trade now, which means that we can trade those antiques that are already packaged."

Yingde was taken aback when he heard this, he didn't want to do this right now, because Green was not ready at all, so he immediately said: "This is unnecessary, we still have the original plan, wait for Fang Ming Let's trade after the appraisal is completed."

"Okay, I have no problem here."

Xie Zhongzhong left, but Yingde sat motionless. After a while, he suddenly smiled wryly. The reason why he invited Xie Zhongzhong to come here was of course to hope to hear some news from Xie Zhongzhong, but Now it seems that I have failed, and more importantly, it seems that Xie Zhongzhong got the information from me instead!
"Damn it! It's really the old fox!"

After a while, Yingde cursed severely.

Xie Zhongzhong didn't know that Yingde was very depressed at this time. After leaving Yingde, he walked back to the villa and found Fang Ming.

"Fang Ming, slow down the pace."

The two security guards left by Yingde were relatively far away, so Xie Zhongzhong was not worried that the other party could hear him.

He didn't know why Xie Zhongcheng did this, but he believed that since Xie Zhongzhong said so, it must be reasonable, so he began to slow down the pace of appraisal—of course, he didn't slow down all at once, but It comes slowly and rhythmically, so that people can't see that it's done intentionally.Among them, when identifying some antiques, I even recalled some rhythms, but overall it was much slower than yesterday.

The easiest thing is that when we left Yingde's villa in the evening, there were only more than 600 antiques that had been appraised, which was much less than before.

After getting into the car, Xie Zhongzhong's face immediately sank, and he said, "Yingde definitely teamed up with Green. He was just asking when we could finally complete the appraisal."

Before this news, Zhao Zhuzi had already obtained some evidence from Green, and now that Xie Zhongcheng said the same, Fang Ming knew that he would definitely not be able to escape.

"That is to say, Green wants to deal with us, but he needs time?"

Xie Zhongzhong nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, that's right, that's what it means! Damn, this Yingde, I think he doesn't want to live anymore."

Shaking his head, Fang Ming said: "Mr. Xie, don't be angry. This matter is not worth it. He has his way and we have ours. Now it seems that the other party's plan will take time. If this is the case, then we must hurry up gone."

"How about we start tomorrow morning?"

After Xie Zhongcheng scolded, he quickly calmed down. At his age, what kind of things haven't he seen?It was just a moment of anger.

"Catch him off guard?"
