Chapter 455 Being a Guest (Du Hou's Experience. Part [-])
Hearing the word "report", the middle-aged man's eyes immediately showed a trace of panic, and he sucked the cigarette out of his mouth in a few puffs.

Then, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and said, "I still have a jade horse this big!" As he spoke, he gestured for the size of the thing.

When Du Hou heard that it was a jade horse, he felt a little disappointed, but he knew that this matter could only be taken slowly. road:

"Okay, if it's really a good thing, I'll definitely give you a satisfactory price. It's more cost-effective to keep it than to sell it to those profiteers..."

Speaking of this, Du Hou actually chatted with the middle-aged man, and it was all about sweat. At noon, he even treated the middle-aged man to a bowl of beef noodles, and the two finally said goodbye. At that time, they were already called brothers.

"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely call you in a few days and bring the things to you..."

Du Houbei returned home full of excitement and joy, and those few porcelain pieces were treasured by him, and the reason is very simple, these few porcelain pieces are the famous Yuan blue and white flowers!This kind of thing, even if it's just a few tiles, can't be bought for 500 yuan.

Moreover, Du Hou felt that even if the middle-aged man was not a Tu Fuzi, he should have done this job once. As for why he thought the middle-aged man had good things, there was also a reason for this.

Du Hou did work in Yu Khan for a while back then, and he still keeps in touch with his friends there.

Three years ago, he heard a news from a friend that a group of Tu Fuzi robbed a tomb of the Yuan Dynasty there. Because the buyer did not agree on the price, the buyer reported it, but the group I got wind of it in advance, and in the end only three were caught, and the others absconded.

To say that the Tufuzi in Yuhan’s place is really rampant. When Du Hou went to a friend’s place to play last year, he went to see it. The remnants of the ancient tomb, the entire hill was almost bulldozed by Tu Fuzi.

Moreover, the Tu Fuzi on Yu Khan's side like to use force, and it is common to use explosives to deal with hard tombs, and it is even more common to smash ceramic burial objects with a shovel.

Because of this, Du Hou immediately remembered this matter when he heard the middle-aged man's accent was Yu Han, and what he took out were all pieces of Yuan blue and white flowers.

So in the next few days, Du Hou stayed at home and did not go out, just waiting for that person's call.

Anyone who plays antiques has a feeling that when they hear news about something they like, they will feel like a cat scratching their hearts, and Du Hou is no exception. When the middle-aged man would not contact him, he happily received his call.

So Du Hou hurriedly drove to a teahouse they had made an appointment with before, and met the middle-aged man who made him "dream".

After arriving at the teahouse, Du Hou was not in a hurry. He asked the waiter to serve good tea and some delicious snacks. He was so moved that he wanted to treat Du Hou like his own relatives.

After drinking tea and eating some snacks, the middle-aged man took out the jade horse mentioned earlier from the cloth bag.

Du Hou was attracted by this jade horse ornament at a glance. The horse is about [-] centimeters long, with a vivid expression, a square mouth, a protruding nose, a flat forehead, the horse's head protruding backwards, and a fine mane. , scattered on both sides of the horse's neck, with a strong body and a long tail swinging back. The whole body is carved in the round. The face and mane are finely carved with incised lines, and the shape is thick.

Based on Du Hou's cognition, he immediately felt that it was a Yuan Dynasty jade, and he felt that the carving was very exquisite, and it was really a rare masterpiece among Yuan Dynasty jades.

Although he thought the jade horse ornament was very good at first glance, but Du Hou also knew about his own affairs, and then carefully looked at every part of the jade horse, and finally he still felt that it was a rare and genuine product .

In fact, the identification of antiques is like this. If a thing is genuine in its heart, even if it is actually a fake, the wrong place will justify itself.The opposite is also true, if you think it is a fake, even if the thing is genuine, you will regard some parts of the genuine product as intentional by the counterfeiter.

Therefore, when appraising antiques, you must be objective and careful, otherwise it is easy to make a wrong judgment. Of course, the premise of all this is that you have to have a corresponding level.

Du Hou put down the jade horse from his hands calmly, then raised his head and asked, "Brother, how much do you plan to sell this thing for?"

"Hi! They are all from the folks in the village, brother, just look at them!" The middle-aged man said casually.

Du Hou waved his hand and said, "That's not okay, my brother has to settle the account clearly, as much as it should be! Just say how much you want to sell!"

The middle-aged man bowed his head in thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth, and said with some embarrassment on his face: "Brother, it's only 1 yuan, what do you think?"

Hearing the quotation from the middle-aged man, Du Hou was very happy. Although he is not very proficient in jade wares, he still knows the value. In the bag he was carrying, he took out 30 yuan and handed it over.

"Brother, are you counting right?"

"Hey! I still don't trust you, bro!"

But having said that, the middle-aged man still dipped his hands in some saliva and counted the money in a hurry. At the same time, Du Hou also carefully put the things into the brocade box he had prepared in advance.

After a while, the middle-aged man showed his big yellow teeth with a smile, and said, "Just right!"

"Brother, thank you for bringing me a good thing, I invite you to drink!" After finishing speaking, Du Hou directly took the middle-aged man's hand and walked out...

As the saying goes, if you don’t have anything to show courtesy, you can either rape or steal. Du Hou didn’t find any good restaurants, so he asked for a private room at a small restaurant next to it that looked relatively clean, and then ordered a large table of dishes. The two started eating and drinking.

Of course, Du Hou is already an old man in his 80s and [-]s, and he is unlikely to eat and drink. The only one who didn't stop talking during the banquet was the middle-aged man, and Du Hou kept drinking him. , The middle-aged man quickly drank in a daze.

But even so, he still seemed to have not had enough food for a long time, and he kept eating with vegetables, which made Du Hou shake his head.

Du Hou invited the middle-aged man to eat this meal, not just to get him drunk, the key is to listen to the mantra of the middle-aged man after drinking.However, the middle-aged man's mouth was very tight. Next, Du Hou tried his best to pry his mouth open. He learned the middle-aged man's secret and confirmed his previous guess.

The middle-aged man said that he was indeed involved in the tomb robbery three years ago. Not only did he participate, but he was also one of the main members. The next three pieces of blue and white porcelain.

Hearing this news, Du Hou was so excited that he was ecstatic, wishing he could put the three pieces of blue and white porcelain in his pocket immediately.

At the end of the meal, the middle-aged man said with his tongue out, "Old...brother, you are the best urbanite I have ever met, and my things... are only sold to you!"

The words of the middle-aged man were like a sleepy pillow to Du Hou. He quickly followed the words and said, "Brother, as long as the things are good, I will definitely give you a good price! I will make you a townsman!"

When the middle-aged man heard the words "become a city resident", he immediately trembled, pulled Du Hou up with some fanaticism, and walked directly to the place, saying as he walked, "Go...brother, I will take you there See what a real good thing is!"

Du Hou was overjoyed, but he didn't drink much just now, so he wasn't drunk enough to bring a huge sum of money to Tu Fuzi's house.

So he immediately called a friend and asked him to provide him with a car, and the driver had also been trained and could act as a bodyguard. Finally, he temporarily asked his friend to borrow 50 in cash.

In this way, under the command of the middle-aged man who was not sober, the driver took the two of them straight to the middle-aged man's home.

The middle-aged man drank a lot at noon, ate a lot, fell asleep for a while, and got up again for convenience. In the end, it was because of the bumpy road. It was already dark at the young man's house, and Du Hou was exhausted from torment. ...

The middle-aged man's wife opened the door, and she was very enthusiastic at first, but after inviting Du Hou and the driver in, she heard that they were here for shopping, so she yelled at the middle-aged man, and told Du Hou Said that there was nothing they wanted to buy at home.

The middle-aged man saw that his wife was showing his face in front of everyone, and drank some wine. He immediately became furious and punched her. Seeing this, the middle-aged man's wife was not to be outdone, and she was ready to fight back with all her teeth and claws. Du Hou and the driver talked and persuaded the couple for a while and ensured that they were safe before they persuaded the couple to come down.

Next, the middle-aged man took out the three pieces of blue and white porcelain he mentioned from the back room, and Du Hou quickly turned his attention to these three pieces of porcelain.

At noon, Du Hou was exhausted in order to take out the words of the middle-aged man. After that, the road was bumpy again, and coupled with the persuasion just now, Du Hou was physically and mentally exhausted at this time. He just wanted to buy things early Go back and get a good night's sleep.

Du Hou tried his best to read all three pieces of porcelain carefully. With his previous preconceived ideas and the fact that there was no problem with these pieces of porcelain, he immediately asked about the price, and the middle-aged man directly quoted 50 yuan. .

Although the price was higher than Du Hou's expectation, he really didn't have the energy to toss with the middle-aged man now, and even one piece of porcelain was worth more than 50, so he directly sold it as quickly as possible, and finally After a brief exchange with the middle-aged man, he hurried back.
