Hunter: Witness From Imprint

"That wouldn't be..."

The manager of the auction house said: "The specifics depend on the object."

"Many times, the selling price in the dealer's market is higher than selling it to an unfamiliar antique store..."

"But the participants are all treacherous and insidious veterans, the competition will be fierce, and sometimes even the first-class products may not be able to sell at the expected price..."

"And this is the scary part of the auction world, unless you meet a good and conscientious businessman..."

03...

"Almost got it."

Huang Yan got up and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your explanation. If there is any need in the future, we will come to ask for advice."

"no problem."

The manager smiled and said, "I'm glad to be of help to you, and welcome to come more often in the future!"

Huang Yan smiled slightly, nodded, greeted Gon and the two of them walked out of the auction house.

Come to the outside of the bidding market.

"y"

Holding the packing box, Gon said: "If the industry market and the participants are all experts, then can we sell these at a good price?"

"Hard to say."

After thinking for a while, Huang Yan said: "It is better to believe more liars than trusting experts.

"The water in the auction world is too muddy. Sometimes we will be deceived by scammers even though we know the real price. At this time, it would be nice to have professionals."

"That's it." Gon said curiously, "I really want to know how much these things are worth, why don't we go to the antique shop first?"

 …

"also."

Although Huang Yan has a general understanding of the value of these prices, there are expensive ones and low-value ones, the specific market price depends on how the market evaluates it.

Thinking of this, Huang Yan nodded and said: "I remember there are a few antique shops not far in front, let's go there and have a look."

"Um"

After a while.

The three walked into an antique shop located in the middle of the auction market.

The store of the antique store is not big, the left and right sides of the entrance are full of antique goods of different shapes, and the inside is a half-person-high joint.

The shop owner was standing behind the counter, looking at the three of them with a smile on his side.

"Welcome, what service do you need?"

"I want to ask the boss to see the value of the antique." Huang Yan said with a smile: "If the price is right, you can sell it to the boss..."

Um

Seeing that the three people's belongings were placed on the table, the shop owner checked them carefully.

quite a while.

"Ah......" the boss said: "Most of these items are good things, such as this painting..."

Seeing Huang Yan and the three of them looking over, the boss pointed to the painting calmly and said: "This is an engraving of Mucadorini, there are 50 pieces in existence, you see, there is the author's signature on it.

"You know, Mucadorini will only (aidc) sign his favorite photos, and this painting is numbered first and has a long history..."

"I have read it, and the signature is real. If you sell it, I am willing to pay 150,000 quit beans. 11

"One hundred and fifty thousand?"

Huang Yan glanced at the shop owner with a half-smile, and said, "I'll talk about this later, and I'll talk about other things.

"This is..." Opening the box, the store owner took out a magnifying glass and said, "A very well-made handmade antique doll..."

"From the outside, it is well preserved, even the box and accessories are intact, so it is more valuable. I can bid 300,000 ring nuns for this one..."

"As for the third one..." The store owner looked carefully with a magnifying glass, and immediately shook his head at the mysterious black statue in front of him, saying:

"It's a pity that this thing is worthless."

Here we come!

Seeing the indifferent expression of the boss, Huang Yan secretly sneered.

From the moment the three of them came in and put down their items, the shop owner set his sights on the black statue.

Although he closed his eyes very quickly, it was okay to deceive Gon and the others, but it was a bit of a dream to deceive himself.

However, the previous two items were not bad at all, the price was lowered by a third at most, and the black statue, judging by the boss's behavior, must be trying to trick them into selling it at the lowest price.

If it weren't for Huang Yan's transparent characters not responding to this thing, he would turn around and leave without looking back.

"I'm looking into the details of the statue, to see if the boss will reveal anything..."

Thinking of this, Huang Yan smiled and said: "It's impossible, judging from his box, it's worth a lot of money."

"Is such that."

The store owner was overjoyed, knowing that the other party had fallen through the trap, he explained with an expert look on his face:

"First of all, the age of the box and the statue obviously does not match. The box should have been made recently, maybe the owner made it specially for the statue..."

"The sculpture itself is rough and lacks unity, and the most important thing is that there is no author's signature on it..."

"I think this statue may have been carved by someone for hundreds of years. It is purely worthless. If you don't want it, I can buy it for 1500 nuns."

"?"

Huang Yan had a half-smile, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "One thousand five hundred nuns, the boss is really generous?"

"Where, where."

The shop owner smiled and said, "But this is only the value of the statue. Only those who know the value of this piece of wood can understand its value..."

"A good ancient wood is a treasure for the contemporary carving world."

"I see."

Gon and Killua kept nodding, expressing that they had learned, which made Huang Yan next to him pat his forehead.

Almost ready to hook up!

Looking at the three of them, the shop owner coughed and said with a smile, "I know someone from the antique dealer will buy this wood for one hundred thousand..."

"If you take it to the market and sell it, very few people in the industry understand its value. Even experts, if they don't know the sculpture industry that will buy it, they will generally not be able to sell it..."

"Usually they would buy it as a bargain, so if you are willing to sell me the painting and doll for 420,000..."

"Then I'm willing to pay 80,000 nuns to buy this statue, how about it? Think about it carefully."

"The boss is very aggressive."

Huang Yan said with a smile: "It's just that, boss, you are at a disadvantage, or else forget it."

"Anyway, it's only a few hundred thousand items, and it's not worth much. It's not bad for us to take it back and carve some small items ourselves.

"etc."

Seeing that Huang Yan was about to take back the items, the boss was anxious, pretending to be calm and said: "I can be sure, if you sell these items in other stores or markets, no one will give back half a million rings..."

"Because there is no profit beyond 450,000 yuan. By the way, can I check the age of this piece of wood?"

With that said, the shop owner picked up the black statue, and was about to turn around and go to the inner room.

"Wait! Put down that statue!"

"Shop owner, do you want to die?"

In an instant, two voices stunned everyone in the store.

Seeing that the boss wanted to take away the statue, Huang Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and then he said that sentence.

But unexpectedly, someone shouted with him at the same time, which made Huang Yan a little surprised.

He turned his head to look at the entrance of the antique shop, where a man with fierce eyes and short hair was standing, holding a package in his hand.

Looking at each other, the coldness in Huang Yan's eyes disappeared, and he smiled and said, "I don't know why this friend suddenly shouted."

Cough cough cough!

"You've all been deceived by him." Immortal Pai, who had been observing outside for a long time, said seriously, "Although he knows that the price for that painting and the antique doll is very fair..."

"However, the asking price of this statue is far from it."

When everyone heard this, they turned to look at the shop owner.

The shop owner, who had just recovered from the inexplicable chill, suddenly panicked.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't talk nonsense, I'm not lying!"

"Yeah?"

Xianpai said calmly: "According to where I am, there is no antique and fine art chamber of commerce that would offer 80,000 ring nuns to buy this piece of wood. What you fancy is..."

"Something in the statue!"

Well!

The owner of the shop who was dismantled was stunned in place.

blah blah!

Xianpai walked quickly to the counter, took the black statue from the shop owner, and sneered, "Do you think I don't know what this is?".
