Antique Dealer

Chapter 68
Su Qihu laughed when he heard the story: "Other people buy antiques and buy fakes at most. You buy antiques and buy real ones. You even help the police destroy a den for making and selling fakes. It makes me laugh so hard. .”

Wang Youzi laughed and said: "Speaking of which, I don't know what's the matter with my luck. I often encounter some strange things, and some things can really make people die."

Next, he told everyone a few interesting things he had experienced, which made everyone amused.

"Let me tell you another story about my leak. It happened last month. I was drinking tea in a friend's shop with a very good relationship. An old man came in. The old man didn't know what was going on. It’s too polite to say that he has a sea yellow bracelet in his hand. Just now someone identified it as fake. I heard that my friend has good eyesight. I want my friend to see if it is right.

If it were me, I would definitely not give the old man an appraisal, but my friend has a good temper, so I showed it to him at the time and said it was genuine.The old man was very happy to hear that, but he wanted to sell the bracelet to my friend. The old man asked a high price and his tone was bad.

I was so angry at the time that I lowered the price by [-]% and asked him if he would sell it.My friend was also booing at the side, and the old man was so angry that he changed hands and left. I don't know what happened. After a while, he came back again and sold me the bracelet.When the old man left, my friend told me that I picked up a small leak, and this bracelet is authentic sea yellow.No, it's the one I'm wearing. "

Wang Youzi showed the bracelet for everyone to see, and said with a smile: "Tell me, is the old man mentally ill? If he can speak well, he won't be missed by me."

At this time, Fang Hao stepped forward: "Brother Wang, can you show me this bracelet?"

"Here you are!" Wang Youzi generously handed the string to Fang Hao.

Fang Hao asked him to put it on the table first, and then took it in his hand. He looked carefully first, asked for a tissue, wiped the string carefully, and then put it in front of his nose to smell for a while.

Fang Hao's expression was always serious, which made Wang Youzi feel that something was wrong: "Why, is there something wrong?"

Fang Hao said: "Brother Wang, we hit it off right away, and we are both friends of Brother Hu. Let me tell the truth, this bracelet is definitely not Haihuang."

Wang Youzi obviously didn't believe Fang Hao's judgment: "Impossible, I have had several Tibetan friends appraise it, and they all said that there is nothing wrong with this bracelet!"

Fang Hao smiled: "The imitation wood is called Laotian rosewood. Some of the best products in it are used to pretend to be sea yellow, which can make the fake ones look like the real ones, and can make the experts go astray. But a fake is a fake, from three aspects , to distinguish the difference between them.

First, the brown eyes of Laotian huanghuali are larger than those of Hainan huanghuali. After polishing, it does not have the delicate feel of sea yellow.Second, Lao Huali also has grimaces, but it is still different from Haihuang's grimaces.The texture of Laotian pear is closer to yellower in color, while the texture of sea yellow is clearer and not as fuzzy as the texture of Laotian pear.

The last one is the fragrance. The Lao pear also has a falling fragrance. The taste is very fragrant, but it is slightly lighter than that of sea yellow.The falling fragrance of sea yellow will make people smell more and more delicious, while Lao pear will make people feel a little uncomfortable after smelling it for a long time.It can make people feel sick.It's a pity that I don't have sea yellow here, or I'll know it by smelling it. "

Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder Fang Hao wiped the bracelets carefully just now, it turned out to avoid odors.

Su Qihu asked: "You don't have anything else made by Haihuang?"

"Actually, I mainly play with jade and porcelain. I basically don't buy Wenwan." Wang Youzi shook his head, and after listening to Fang Hao's explanation, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his bracelet really didn't match what Fang Hao said. I don't know if it's a psychological effect after I smell it again, but it really has a disgusting feeling in the end.

Su Qihu said: "I have a sea yellow pen holder in the study at home. I'll call someone to bring it."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Wang Youzi's face was a little unsightly: "Tell me, did he do it on purpose?"

Fang Hao comforted him and said, "It's hard to say, maybe he was wrong too."

Wang Youzi shook his head: "As far as I know, he has been playing sea yellow for at least ten years, and he has handled a lot of sea yellow, so he shouldn't be mistaken easily!"

Su Qihu put away his phone and asked, "How did you meet him?"

Wang Youzi said: "I met him three years ago. At that time, I bought a batch of hailao porcelain from him. Some of them were researched for a long time at home, but I didn't figure it out. Then, I went to find them. A friend helped, and the friend said that something looked suspicious, so it was best to ask an expert to help identify it.

Because I had something to deal with during that time, and I didn't have time to find an expert. During the period, I received a call from him, saying that one of the porcelains was very good and asked me to keep it well. If I want to sell it someday, I can go to him. He You must give me a reasonable price. After hearing what he said, I feel that this person has a good character and is worthy of association. "

Since then, Wang Youzi has been in contact with this antique dealer more and more, and there is one thing that Wang Youzi remembers very deeply.

One day, the antique dealer received five pieces of jade, unearthed in the same batch, dating back to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods.When Wang Youzi saw those jade wares, he immediately fell in love with them and bought them immediately.

Within two days, the antique dealer called Wang Youzi, saying that there was a boss in Shanghai who had his eye on one of the jade wares, but he didn't express his opinion at the time, but now he wanted it again, and learned that he had already sold it to Wang Youzi. , just wanted to increase the price to buy, the boss of the magic city was still on the phone with Wang Youzi, and asked Wang Youzi to transfer the jade to him.

Wang Youzi liked that jade piece at first, after this incident, he felt that the jade piece must have a very good appreciation space, so he politely declined the other party's request.

After that, the other party called several times and raised the price a few times to ask for the purchase, but Wang Youzi never agreed, and now the five pieces of jade are still in his safe.

Later, one time, when the antique dealer was drinking with Wang Youzi, he learned that the five jade pieces were still in Wang Youzi's hands.

After hearing this, Fang Hao felt that Wang Youzi might have been cheated.

Encounters like Wang Youzi's are not uncommon in the antique market. Some profiteers are very good at understanding people's psychology. Even after selling the fakes, they will perform fake plays and use tricks to keep people in the dark.Then, according to individual conditions, use various means to prove the preciousness of that commodity, so that buyers can be complacent.

Some people may wonder, why do this?The reason is very simple, this will make buyers subconsciously think that they can pick up leaks from this person, and naturally they can sell more fakes.
