Goddess of Art Transformation Project

Chapter 159
The middle-aged uncle waved his fan and looked at Chu Ci and Gu Lang for a long while before speaking.

"All the items in this store are priced, you can't shop for treasures here, and you can't bargain."

The boss looked at Chu Ci and Gu Lang and felt that these two people really did not come to buy antiques, but the boss has been running an antique shop for many years, so he has extraordinary eyesight. From the clothes of Chu Ci and Gu Lang, it can be seen that the two of them can spend here So the boss didn't drive people out, but just reminded him.In fact, I don’t blame the owner of the antique shop. Most of the objects here are quite precious. Even some high-quality imitations are actually worth tens of thousands of yuan. Naturally, the owner can’t allow people to come in and watch casually.

Chu Ci pointed to the clear blue and white gallbladder bottle with dragon pattern standing on the top of the cabinet and asked the boss, "How much is this?"

The boss frowned slightly when he heard Chu Ci's question. Chu Ci couldn't help but feel a little helpless when he saw the boss frowning. Chu Ci found that all the stalls with signs issued by the Antique Association along the way treated him and Gu Lang very badly. Be familiar with those who hold a magnifying glass.

"Boss, you won't let us in, and you said that everything here is priced, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to ask the price!"

Boss Wei has opened this antique store for more than 20 years. He used to set up a stall outside with his father, and later made a lot of money by setting up a stall. In addition, Boss Wei’s father also collects some antiques, so every time he buys goods, he himself They will make eye-opening first, and they will accumulate a little wealth after coming and going, and they will sell the storefront.

But not long after the store opened, Boss Wei’s father died just in time for a flash flood when he went to buy goods. Boss Wei and his father used to depend on each other for life. Now Boss Wei is the only one left to support the store. I have also learned a lot of knowledge in the antique channel for many years, and this has supported the operation of the small shop.

Decades of accumulation have also allowed Boss Wei to accumulate tens of millions of wealth. However, due to the influx of a large number of fakes and old handicrafts into the antique market, the atmosphere of the antique market is not as good as before. Sell ​​the fakes on hand in a deceitful way.Although it is said that the antique industry is all based on a pair of eyes, and you can’t blame others for its good or bad, but there is always a risk of being deceived. You have deceived others by millions, and some buyers who don’t understand the rules of the trade will inevitably come back to make trouble for you.

In the past, Boss Wei was also engaged in eye-catching business, but due to a big incident in the antique circle, an antique shop owner cheated a middle-aged wealthy businessman into a fake calligraphy and painting of a famous artist for 1000 million yuan, and was directly caught by the dealer in the end. One person was wounded and admitted to the hospital, and both legs were discounted, so he could only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.And I knew in my heart who was behind it, but there was no evidence and I could only suffer from being dumb.

As soon as this incident happened, many antique dealers, especially those who opened shops, stopped doing eye-catching business. All the items in the shop were clearly marked with prices, but all the items that did not do eye-catching business became clearly priced. In the end, the profit will be much less, and there must always be a few genuine goods in the store, and they must be good ones to come to the town, and each purchase must pledge a large amount of cash on hand.

Boss Wei has followed his father since he was a child and has several fixed purchase points, and most of the purchases from these purchase points are items dug out from the ground, but it is hard to say whether the items are true or not.
The values ​​also vary.Boss Wei almost put all the cash on hand into the purchase this time, and some time ago, Boss Wei bought a Jiuwenlong incense burner from a friend, and spent 960 million yuan to persuade his friend to cut it off. It's cheap, but after buying it, I found a friend in the street after repeated confirmation, and finally confirmed that this Jiuwenlong incense burner turned out to be an old and high-quality imitation. Let alone 960 million, it is considered a profit if it is sold for 5.

When this happened, Boss Wei lost all his savings for several years, which is equivalent to not earning a penny for 5 or 6 years. Boss Wei has been in a depressed mood recently, and his mood is not very good. He gave way without saying anything, and walked into the counter by himself.

Chu Ci and Gu Lang looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. The owner of this antique shop is really bad.

Chu Ci walked into the shop and saw that the price on the blue and white draconian bile bottle on the top of the cabinet was 120 million, which was 40 higher than the price given by the system. Chu Ci didn't even look at the boss and turned his head to ask about Gu Lang.

"Gu Lang, if an antique is auctioned in an auction house, what is the maximum price premium?" Chu Ci felt that a 50.00% premium for an antique is really a bit expensive.Although Chu Ci wanted to buy some antiques, but if the price was not right, Chu Ci would not buy them.After all, Chu Ci is not a fool with a lot of money.

"For the auction house, if it's porcelain, there will be a 150% premium for many. If you meet a favorite, it's not impossible to have a [-]% premium. But the premise is that you can be sure that the porcelain is real."

As soon as Gu Lang finished speaking, he heard Boss Wei snort in displeasure: "Of course this blue and white draconian bile bottle is real! This is one of the treasures of our store, and it was not intended to be sold. "

Boss Wei has also been in the antique business for decades, and he has deceived countless people, but this time he sold the real thing, and this clear blue and white gallbladder bottle with dragon pattern was not bought by anyone before, and Boss Wei was not willing to buy it. However, due to the current economic crisis, Boss Wei had no choice but to sell this clear blue and white draconian bile bottle.

Boss Wei still felt aggrieved this time, as if he had been a bad person all his life, and it was unbearable for someone to call him a bad person when he suddenly became a good person once.

Chu Ci smiled and looked at Boss Wei, who seemed to have been greatly wronged, and said softly: "I believe in the character of the boss, help me directly wrap this blue and white draconian bile bottle, I bought this one."

Chu Ci stood in the shop with a smile, his eyes that seemed to hide the scenery of the four seasons were bent into a crescent shape, and the playful curvature of the corners of the eyes made people feel like a spring breeze.

Boss Wei couldn't help but stared blankly for a while before he came back to his senses, his face turned a little red, but Boss Wei is a rough guy with dark skin, so the redness can't be seen at all.

Gu Lang gently tugged at Chu Ci's cuff to remind Chu Ci not to be impulsive, how can you trust the words of the antique shop owner!
I saw Chu Ci turned his head sideways and blinked at Gu Lang, like an elf with some tricks to succeed, bright and lively, gentle and charming.

Gu Lang looked at Chu Ci's appearance and didn't say anything else. Thinking of Chu Ci's manor, he couldn't help but sighed. Anyway, there is a mine at home, so it's not bad at all. Being happy is the most important thing.
