Chapter 11 Porcelain Plates
Chu Ning was amused.

Unexpectedly, Qian Beibei looked like a daughter who didn't care about worries, and she even knew the saying of picking up leaks.

She looked at Qian Beibei helplessly: "There are so many things on the stall, I only have a few to look at. How do I know if there is anything you'd like?"

Qian Beibei was immediately disappointed.

But she also knew that she was being impulsive.

Thinking about it, Qian Beibei said in a ghostly way: "Well, let's look at it separately. If I see something I like later, how about I use it for you to appraise?"

This method is not bad.

but……

Chu Ning said with some hesitation: "I haven't identified anything for others, and I don't have much experience in this area. And my eyesight is actually not as high as you think, maybe I will misread something and let you Waste of money..."

Qian Beibei waved her hand arrogantly, and said indifferently: "It's okay! Anyway, I believe you are right. Besides, it's okay even if you read it wrong, I can still afford it for the things on the stall! "

Chu Ning and Zou Yuling couldn't laugh or cry.

But Qian Beibei's words are really true.

Although the possibility of buying the real thing is very low at the stalls in the antique street, the price is indeed not much higher.There are also asking prices of hundreds of thousands, but that must be deceiving.Usually, tens of thousands of dollars is the best, but more common items are thousands, hundreds, or even tens of dollars. It just depends on whether the street stalls will bargain.

Before Chu Ning could answer, Qian Beibei was already browsing the stalls with great interest.

The stall owner over there had already negotiated a deal in the morning, and when he was happy, he was also in the mood to talk to the young girls like Chu Ning, and he came over and said, "How about you guys? What do you fancy?"

Qian Beibei looked over at a glance. Although most of the stalls were filled with old-looking things, there were also those with particularly beautiful appearances.She picked and picked among them, and she picked out a porcelain plate, and asked the stall owner, "Boss, how do you sell this thing?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the boss knew that she was an outsider and didn't even know the name of the thing in her hand.

I don't know why such a little girl came to their antique street.

But it's easier to be fooled by laymen.

"The girl has a good eye, and she picked the most valuable thing in my stall right away!" The stall owner praised Qian Beibei without blushing, "This is an authentic blue and white porcelain plate from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Seeing how talented you are!" Eyes, I will give you a [-]% discount today, and you can take it away at [-]!"

Qian Beibei was originally very happy to be praised by the stall owner, but when she heard the quotation from the boss later, her expression changed immediately.

She is rich, but she is not a fool, and she is not so easy to be tricked.

"So expensive?" Qian Beibei looked at the stall owner contemptuously, "You said it was a blue and white porcelain plate from Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, so it must be? Is there any evidence?"

This is even more layman's terms.

The stall owner skillfully picked up the porcelain plate, turned it over and said in a dignified manner: "Girl, look, there is a name of 'Made in the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty' under my porcelain plate. Look again at the middle of this porcelain plate." Decorative pattern, how well this peony blooming and rich is painted! Absolutely master handwriting! You can go to the antique shop to see such a porcelain plate, if you don’t have 30 to [-], you will definitely not be able to get it. I will charge you [-] Eight, this is the price of vomiting blood!"

Chu Ning's stomach hurts from laughing.

This stall owner is considered a character, and the ability to talk nonsense when meeting people is not something that ordinary people can learn.

Chu Ning believed that if another person stood in front of the stall owner, the stall owner would definitely come up with something completely different from the present.

Porcelain plates, popular since the Tang Dynasty, belonged to daily-use utensils in ancient times. Most of the common utensils are open, shallow-bellied, flat-bottomed, tall or ring-footed.Porcelain plates are usually used as fruit plates, soup plates, trays, etc., and their shapes also vary in many ways.

The one chosen by Qian Beibei is the most common round shape.

Of course, the shape of the porcelain plate is not important, nor does it affect the overall value of the porcelain plate.However, round porcelain plates are the easiest to counterfeit.

Seeing the stall owner's swearing, Qian Beibei felt a little hesitant, pulled Chu Ning over and asked quietly: "Chu Chu, can I buy that plate?"

The stall owner watched them discuss privately with a smile.

Chu Ning showed no expression, but reached out and stroked Qian Beibei's lower back where the stall owner could not see.

This is shaking your head.

Qian Beibei understood, knowing that it was Chu Ning telling her not to buy it.

Unexpectedly, the first time I picked antiques, I picked fake ones.

She suddenly felt a little slumped, and said to the stall owner sullenly: "Forget it, your thing is too expensive, I can't afford it."

The stall owner didn't expect Qian Beibei's decision to be made so quickly, he was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Girl, my porcelain plate is really not expensive! If you don't believe me, you can inquire about it on the street. Absolutely the lowest price!"

His last sentence was obviously a lie. It was purely to support him and persuade Qian Beibei.

But Qian Beibei has Chu Ning behind him as a military adviser, so naturally he won't accept the trick of the stall owner.

She shook her head firmly and said: "Forget it, if you say you don't buy it, you don't buy it. Boss, you don't have to say any more!"

The more Qian Beibei said that, the more aggrieved and panicked the stall owner felt.

He is a person who has been playing around in the antique street all year round. When it comes to looking at antiques, he doesn't have much eyesight.But when it comes to judging people, he really has a bit of a sharp eye.

Just like the three young girls in front of me, the one who asked the price before is definitely the richest of the three. You can tell at a glance just by looking at her dress and behavior.Such a young girl has never been stingy when it comes to spending money.

And the long-haired girl who was pulled by the rich girl looked gentle, she was a very quiet girl, she didn't show any emotion, on the contrary, people couldn't see her innocence.

As for the remaining one, it seems that he came from an ordinary background.Although she can't tell her character from this glance, it can be seen that she is definitely more fussy when it comes to shopping.

So when he saw that the person who asked for the price was Qian Beibei, a rich girl, the stall owner was already sure in his heart that he could make the deal.

But who knew, the rich girl just asked a few words, then turned around and decided not to buy it. How could this not surprise the stall owner?

"This morning's business is not easy to do, girl, I see that you sincerely want to buy it, and if it's a big deal, I'll give you another price..." The stall owner gritted his teeth, looking pained, "Sixty thousand, really There can be no less!"
