Jianbao life

Chapter 874 What happened to Fang Jinbo
Early the next morning, Fang Jinbo went to Bingzhou by car with Tian Sheng with a pair of panda eyes and 5000 yuan in savings.The distance between the two places is not far. After more than two hours, they got off the car at the gate of the largest antique market in Bingzhou.

Due to the rush in the morning, they didn't even eat breakfast, and the two of them were already hungry when they got off the car.Just seeing a small restaurant at the entrance of the ancient market, they went in and ordered two snacks, ate a bowl of authentic hand-rolled braised noodles, filled their stomachs first, and then went to the market to check for leaks.

Thinking about entering the market soon, Fang Jinbo's heart became excited. He felt that once entering the market, there must be a lot of leaks waiting for him to pick up. In his heart, that is really beautiful!

However, there is an old saying that the ideal is full and full, but the reality is very skinny. After visiting several stalls, the two of them were still empty-handed.

Tian Sheng was very annoyed by this, so he stopped visiting these small stalls and led Fang Jinbo directly into a small antique shop.

There is a 50-centimeter-high Han Dynasty green-glazed hunting statue in the antique shop. Not to mention the beautiful glaze color, the decoration is also quite exquisite. Tian Sheng fell in love with it at a glance. When he asked the price, the shop owner said [-] yuan.

Tian Sheng looked at it for a long time and said, "It's not bad!"

Fang Jinbo also felt that the item was really good, it was considered a fine piece of pottery from the Han Dynasty, if the price was not expensive, it would be a good buy.

But Tian Sheng put the things back again, and then asked Fang Jinbo: "Did you see anything?"

Fang Jinbo happened to be reading books on bronze wares at that time, and he was very interested in bronze wares. He looked around and said hesitantly: "I really like bronze wares, but it's a pity that they don't exist here."

The shopkeeper of the antique shop smiled and said, "I have bronze wares here, but they are all just handicrafts."

Fang Jinbo was taken aback for a moment, and thought, "Since it's a handicraft, why do you say it? Would I still spend money to buy some handicraft from you?"

However, he immediately realized that buying and selling bronze wares is illegal now, and the shopkeeper of this shop had to say so in order to clear himself of responsibility.

After thinking about this, Fang Jinbo asked the shopkeeper to take out the things to have a look.

There are quite a lot of bronze wares in this store, but most of them are just like what the shopkeeper said just now, the surface is full of rust, and the internal situation cannot be seen clearly.

After picking it for a long time, Fang Jinbo finally picked out a bronze mirror with slightly visible patterns.

In fact, at that time, his appraisal of bronze wares was basically a noob. It was nothing more than to see if there was any green rust, blue rust, or red spots.Fortunately, Tian Sheng happened to introduce to him how to identify bronze wares in the car before, and let him know that as long as there are green rust, blue rust, and red spots on the bronze wares, there is probably no problem in nine out of ten.

The reason why he chose this bronze mirror was mainly because of the erythema and patina on the surface. Another reason was that some surface decorations could be seen on this bronze ware, and the bronze mirror was large enough, with a diameter of thirty to forty. centimeter.

When Fang Jinbo thought that there was nothing wrong with reading it, he handed it to Tian Sheng and asked Tian Sheng to help him read it again.

Tian Sheng took the things in his hand and asked, "Is this the only thing you like?"

Fang Jinbo nodded, then he looked left and right, and finally said: "There is nothing wrong with the thing, it is an old thing that has been opened for generations, and this thing is quite big, you have good eyesight now!"

Hearing Tian Sheng's praise, Fang Jinbo was overjoyed.

Maybe many of my friends have this kind of experience. When they just entered the industry to study, they decided to buy something and asked their trusted teacher to help them see it. When the teacher affirmed their grades, don’t be too happy at that time.Fang Jinbo entered that very excited state at that time.

So he quickly asked the boss for the price, and the boss looked at him and quoted [-].Fang Jinbo frowned when he heard that, he only brought five thousand in total, how could he afford eight thousand?
But before Fang Jinbo could bargain, Tian Sheng helped and said, "No way, it's so expensive. This young man is just learning, and he's still so young. How can he have so much money?"

The shopkeeper said: "My things are very good, and they are open to the door. Eight thousand is cheaper for me!"
"Even if the things are good, your price is too high. We just came back from the capital a while ago, and your price is higher than that in the capital."

"Impossible, this is the first-hand price, and if you look at the appearance of this product, although the rust color is a bit heavier, there is no damage on the surface, and ordinary rust can be removed. And such a big bronze mirror is really not good. It’s easy to find, and the price is not cheap when I get it, if it’s lower, I won’t lose money.”

"That's not so high. If you're like this, I'll tell you a price. It's fine if you think it's okay, and it's fine if it's not."

So Tian Sheng opened four thousand eight directly.The shopkeeper did not agree.So Tian Sheng took Fang Jinbo's hand and walked out directly, saying as he walked, "You still don't agree with this price, this price is already good enough!"

When they reached the door, the shopkeeper quickly stopped them and said he agreed.

At that time, Fang Jinbo had great trust in Tian Sheng, not only his eyesight, but also his character.So without further ado, I paid the shopkeeper and bought the things.

After Fang Jinbo finished shopping, Tian Sheng took him to other stores. After visiting several stores, Tian Sheng still didn't buy a single item. He said that if he wanted to buy something, he had to buy high-quality goods. However, Fang Jinbo felt that Tian Sheng was reluctant. spend money.

Just like that, when they were about to eat, they came to an antique shop specializing in jade wares. Tian Sheng first fell in love with a piece of sapphire wall, held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and then asked the shopkeeper for other things to look at. He took out another yellow jade vessel.

Fang Jinbo didn't know what it was at the time, but he didn't know it was a sword, it was a jade sword at the end of the scabbard until he got home and read related books.

Fang Jinbo can't understand jade, but he also thinks that jade bi and Jianzhu look weird.

But Tian Sheng looked left and right, looked carefully for a long time, and asked the shopkeeper, "How do you sell this thing?"

"The price of both items is [-]. If you want them all, I can give you [-] less."

"It's too expensive. There's another strand of this jade bi, so it costs less than [-] yuan, and this piece of sword seems to be faulty."

"Then how much did you come up with?"

"I'll give you three thousand in total."

"No! No..."

After the two bargained together, they finally settled the deal at [-] yuan.

Walking out of the antique shop, Fang Jinbo asked, "When did this jade disc come from? Isn't it?"

"Of course it's right, but can I buy it? This piece of jade is simple in craftsmanship, exquisite in decoration, neatly arranged, and very beautiful. It is not a problem to sell 50 yuan. If it sells well, it can be sold for 100 million yuan." Tian Shengyue said The more excited, as if I picked up a treasure.

But Fang Jinbo always felt something was wrong, so he persuaded Tian Sheng that there is a shop owner here who is his friend anyway, so it's better to take it and let his friend show it to him. It's safer to have one more person to see it.

Tian Sheng was right after thinking about it, so he took the two pieces of jade and went to his friend's shop.

However, Tian Sheng's friend laughed and said that Tian Sheng's eyesight was getting worse and worse, and he couldn't even see the fake jade with sulfuric acid.

Hearing Tian Sheng's friend's words, Fang Jinbo was surprised, but at the same time, he began to doubt Tian Sheng's eyesight, and his expression when he saw Tian Sheng also changed.

After leaving the store, Fang Jinbo asked Tian Sheng what to do, Tian Sheng generously said that it was fine, and he would definitely solve it by going to that store again.

So they didn't even eat, and went back to the shop just now.When the shopkeeper saw them coming back, he cheerfully asked them if there was anything else they wanted to buy.

Tian Sheng said with a smile: "I plan to give these two pieces of jade to my friend. I showed it to my friend just now, and he said he didn't like it. There is no other way. You can return it for me!"

Fang Jinbo didn't expect Tian Sheng to solve it like this. Even if he is a newcomer, he knows that the rule in the business is that once the money is paid for, it has nothing to do with the seller and cannot be settled later.

When the shopkeeper heard this, his face immediately turned dark: "I said, you are so old, don't you know the rules?"

"Hehe, I haven't left the market yet. It's not a violation of the rules. Please give me a refund."

"Stop joking, just tell me, why do you want to retire?"

Since Tian Sheng wanted to withdraw, he had to come up with a suitable reason, for example, something happened suddenly at home, and the cash flow couldn't be opened. You can't say that I made a hole in the bank, so you can refund me.

But Tian Sheng couldn't say too much, so he repeated what he said before, but how could the store return the product for this reason, after all, it has nothing to do with him.

After spending nearly an hour with the shopkeeper, Fang Jinbo's chest stuck to his back from hunger. Tian Sheng saw that there was no hope of returning the product, so he had to compromise, but he didn't want to lose [-] in vain. A piece of jade pendant, I just want the store to give him the jade pendant.

The shopkeeper directly shook his head: "This incense burner costs 4000 yuan, how can I give it to you!"

For this jade pendant, Tian Sheng talked about it for an hour, but in the end the store had no choice but to agree to give Tian Sheng the jade pendant because he also knew what it was sold to Tian Sheng.

After Tian Sheng left the door, Fang Jinbo said complacently: "Although the result is not very satisfactory this time, it is not considered a loss. This jade pendant works well, and it can be sold for thousands of dollars!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care what Fang Jinbo's expression was, and led Fang Jinbo to the antique shop they went to for the first time, and pointed directly at the Han Dynasty green glazed hunting statue, asking the boss to give him a cheaper price.

What Fang Jinbo didn't expect was that without saying a few words, the store actually sold the item to Tian Sheng for less than three thousand.

Fang Jinbo didn't know what was going on at the time, and he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, so he didn't think much about it. After he went back, his friend said that he had lost money on the bronze mirror, so he realized what it was. what happened.

First of all, although Fang Jinbo's bronze mirror is genuine, it certainly won't cost that much in terms of its appearance.But Tian Shengming knew the price of the bronze mirror, and asked Fang Jinbo to pay a high price on purpose, so that when he bought the Han Dynasty green glazed hunting statue, it would be easier to counter-offer, that is to say, he subsidized himself with Fang Jinbo's money.
