Eyes open to the money in the city

Chapter 61
It's just that this snuff bottle is obviously not something from the Qing Dynasty, otherwise, the price Hu Yang saw could not be less than 1000 yuan.

Therefore, Zhong Wanming's operation is simply asking for a slap in the face.

However, since he was slapped in the face voluntarily, Hu Yang couldn't stop it.

"Mr. Zhong from the Qian Group has offered 50 yuan. Is there anyone who wants to increase the price?"

Just as the crowd was clamoring, Wang Dahai on the stage spoke again, but no one responded below.

"50 million once!"

"50 million times!"

Looking at the situation, Wang Dahai also knew that there was no point in procrastinating. No one raised the price when it was 50, let alone [-]!
"50 million three times!!"

"make a deal!!"

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhong, and thanks to the Qian Group for their support of charity!" Wang Dahai said with a smile.

"Next, please ask the donor of this auction item, Director Ma Dagang, to hand it over to Mr. Zhong..."

A beam of chasing light hit Zhong Wanming, and he stepped onto the stage with a smile on his face. Ma Dagang also stepped onto the stage from the other side. The two spoke separately. Of course, they were all clichés about supporting charity.

"Old Hu, the things you took were donated by Ma Dagang, can it really be fake? He is also a great director, he wouldn't even fool around with fakes when doing charity." Qian Xiaoer frowned, pinching Hu Yang sweat.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that he intentionally fooled it with fake products, maybe he himself didn't know there was something wrong with this snuff bottle." Hu Yang replied lightly.

"If it's true, do you really want to pay 50 yuan to buy it?" Qian Xiaoer pouted and complained, "Brother Zhong, this time is really too much!"

While the two were talking, Zhong Wanming also returned to his seat, and the snuff bottle he had just bought was packed in an exquisite wooden box.

"Hu Yang, if this is true, you will have to pay for it." Zhong Wanming put the wooden box on the table and snorted coldly.

Hearing this, Hu Yang smiled softly: "I would like to praise Mr. Zhong for his kindness. I will buy a handicraft from the Republic of China for 50 yuan, but the people in the mountainous area will thank Mr. Zhong!"

"Be quick with your tongue. I have just greeted President Xing of the Jiangcheng Antiques Association. He will come over in a while to verify the authenticity of this snuff bottle."

Zhong Wanming snorted coldly.

"That would be the best. I think you will believe President Xing's words." Hu Yang said.

"Naturally, Chairman Xing is a great expert in Jiangcheng's antique world!" Zhong Wanming nodded.

"Mr. Zhong, can you show me your snuff bottle first?" At this time, Qian Zonglai interjected, he was more fond of antiques, but now, this snuff bottle involves a bet between the two of them, he Naturally, I was even more curious about the authenticity of this thing.

"of course can."

Zhong Wanming pushed the wooden box directly in front of Qian Zonglai. The latter opened the wooden box, took out the snuff bottle, and tasted it carefully. However, after looking at it for a long time, he could not figure out why. He was interested in antiques. My love is true, but I am a second-hand person with limited discernment.

"Oh, I can't see through this thing."

Qian Zonglai shook his head in frustration, and at this moment, an old man wearing silver-rimmed glasses came over.

"President Xing, sit down."

Zhong Wanming stood up politely and gave up his seat.

"No need, I'll stand and watch [-]% of it."

Xing Ziliang waved his hand and picked up the snuff bottle that Qian Zonglai had just put in the box. He was invited to attend the charity dinner, and he also donated items himself. However, his items have not been photographed yet.

"President Xing, the things donated by Director Ma Dagang are not fake."

Zhong Wanming said with a smile, trying to guide Xing Ziliang's judgment. In fact, if this is what he thinks in his heart, in his opinion, Ma Dagang is also a well-known director after all. .

Xing Ziliang didn't respond right away, but took the snuff bottle and looked it up and down for a while, then said slowly: "This thing is wrong."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wanming was immediately dumbfounded.

No, it's the jargon of the antique world, because usually people don't speak too bluntly, but as long as they say "wrong" or "not sure", it is very likely that this thing is a fake .

"President Xing, please take a closer look, this, this can't be done?" Zhong Wanming said a little panicked, with a face of unwillingness.

"I've seen everything, it's just my humble opinion." Xing Ziliang waved his hand: "Everyone, please leave."

After saying that, Xing Ziliang turned his head and left. After all, the auction on the stage is still going on, it's not good for him to stand here all the time.

"This……"

Zhong Wanming was stunned immediately, and sat down on the chair in a slump.

But at this time, Qian Zonglai looked at Populus euphratica with surprise in his eyes. The latter never took a close look at the snuff bottle from the beginning, but only relied on the image displayed on the big screen to conclude that it was a snuff bottle. Fake, what kind of eyesight is this? !

Not only Zhong Wanming was surprised, but also the two actresses who sat by the side without saying a word. Naturally, they didn't pay attention to Hu Yang in this occasion where big shots gathered, especially after Zhong Wanming came, intentionally or unintentionally In order to expose Hu Yang's old background, let everyone know that Hu Yang has no background. In this way, the two despised Hu Yang even more.

However, the move just now had to make the two of them look at Populus euphratica with admiration. Although they didn't know anything about antiques, they knew that the identification of antiques is the most difficult, especially as technology is getting more and more advanced now, and the gangs that make counterfeit goods are also coming. It's getting worse and worse, even the experts can hardly distinguish the authenticity of an antique, but Hu Yang can judge the authenticity of the snuff bottle just by taking a casual look, obviously he has extraordinary skills.

"Mr. Zhong, thank you for your contribution to charity."

At this time, Hu Yang joked with a smile.

Zhong Wanming, on the other hand, looked livid. It was not that he felt sorry for the 50 yuan, but that he had lost face. Not only did he have Qian Xiaoer around him, but he also had big bosses such as Qian Zonglai and Zhang Jun. This time, he felt embarrassed. Got home.

"Mr. Zhong, please follow me to go through the payment procedures for the lot just now..."

At this time, the staff came over and said politely.

However, his words were tantamount to rubbing salt into Zhong Wanming's wounds, but the items had already been photographed, so he couldn't refuse to pay, so he could only bite the bullet and follow the staff member with a dark face.

"Brother Hu, you really have outstanding eyesight, I admire you!" Qian Zonglai said with a smile as soon as Zhong Wanming walked away.

"It's just a fluke." Hu Yang smiled modestly.

"Brother Hu, you don't need to be modest. There may be luck in the antique business, but the test is ultimately your eyesight." Qian Zonglai said, and handed his mobile phone to Hu Yang: "Brother Hu, if you want to add a WeChat message , I have a lot of old things in my house, if you have time someday, please help me to palm the eye."

"Okay, Mr. Qian's collection must be priceless treasures, I'll go and open my eyes..." Hu Yang smiled, took out his mobile phone and added Qian Zonglai's WeChat message.
