Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

"Not bad!" Lin Ran was overjoyed. Yang Jianlong was indeed making progress.

At least he has learned to think accordingly.

Tian Zhenliang was a little unhappy. Lin Ran had been negotiating the price with him well, so why did he suddenly ask Yang Jianlong.

Seeing Tian Zhenliang's confusion, Lin Ran explained: "There were five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. In order, they were Ru kiln, Guan kiln, Ge kiln, Jun kiln and Ding kiln. Only the products of these five famous kilns were valuable. In addition, they are all private cellars, and although the celadon they produce looks exquisite, they are actually of inferior quality."

"Yes." Tian Zhenliang listened patiently. He felt that Lin Ran was different from other masters.

Other masters would often give results directly, but Lin Ran would guide them to think.

"Then which kiln produced the celadon you identified?" Tian Zhenliang had unknowingly changed his honorific title.

"A private kiln, I don't know which kiln it is, but it's only worth 1000 yuan at most."

When these words were spoken, the quotation of "1500" was already floating in my ears.

Many people immediately became interested when they heard that this was a celadon bottle from the Song Dynasty.

Some of them want to keep them for their own collection, while others plan to resell them.

Gray and Yin Fei whispered to each other.

Gray asked: "Master Yin, is this celadon bottle worth the price?"

He doesn't care about money, but if he buys cultural relics that exceed the actual price, he will be disliked.

Yin Fei was also helpless, as there was no stage for appraisal just now.

He had no way of telling which kiln the product was from.

"I don't know if he did it on purpose or something." Yin Fei glanced at Lin Ran.

Tian Zhenying, who was beside Lin Ran, held up a sign: "1600."

This gave Yin Fei great confidence.

"It's valuable. It's okay to get it within 3000 yuan." Yin Fei said.

He had been paying attention to Lin Ran's actions just now. This boy was no amateur and had a certain level of treasure appraisal.

"Okay." Gray was also very generous and directly increased the price to two thousand.

His unreasonable price increase directly scared off other customers who wanted to buy celadon bottles.

But there are still people who are not afraid of death and bid with him.

After some bidding, Gray finally won the celadon plum vase for [-] yuan.

Tian Zhenying was a little confused: "Master Lin, you just said this thing is not valuable, why do you ask me to bid?"

"Don't you see?" Lin Ran explained, "Sun Xingming is an old fox. He knew that this celadon plum vase was not valuable, so he asked me to come on stage to help appraise it."

"In order to restore the credibility of the auction house, what he gave me must be genuine, and he hoped to be of high quality, so as to restore their reputation. In fact, I saw on the stage that it was celadon from the Southern Song Dynasty, but I The purpose of deliberately blurring the era is to make Sun Xingming lower his guard against us."

Lin Ran said that if he ruined Sun Xingming's business, the other party would definitely cause trouble for him.

Now that he had too many troubles in his hands, Lin Ran didn't want to face another opponent.

Therefore, he adopted an ambiguous approach, implying to the auctioneer that the cultural relic was valuable.

Sun Xingming was indeed very satisfied with Lin Ran's answer. If the other party said it was a fake, he would be able to reveal that Lin Ran just relied on luck to guess that it was a fake, thus confirming that there was nothing wrong with the goods in their auction house and they could only rely on guessing. Find fakes.

If he identifies it as genuine and can tell the price, he can use it as an excuse.

However, Lin Ran was not fooled, and used the method of hinting to the guests that the cultural relic was valuable, but actually did not tell them the value.

This means that the guests have been fooled by him.

As long as you buy cultural relics, you will have to swallow it yourself if you lose money.

Downplay the impact Luo Yang’s selling of fake goods had on them.

Tian Zhenying and Yang Jianlong were both businessmen, so they naturally understood what Lin Ran meant.

While they admired him, they also felt a little puzzled.

"Since you have performed so well on stage, why do you still need me to hold up the sign?" Tian Zhenying asked.

"That's not easy. You came on stage with me. If it's really worth something, you don't follow the bidding. Isn't it strange?" Lin Ran said.

He noticed that when he returned to his seat just now, there were many people staring at him.

Now it has been reduced by at least half. Sun Xingming treated him much less, which made Lin Ran breathe a sigh of relief.

But Lin Ran was not targeting Gray, but he didn't expect Gray to be looking at him from behind.

Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw Gray coming on stage to collect cultural relics.

Gray is so wealthy that he paid such a high price for the celadon engraved plum vase.

It’s not that you can’t make a lot of money, but if you want to make money, it will take at least ten years.

This artifact has little research value.

If you donate it to a museum, the museum may not accept it because there are so many products from folk kilns.

On the surface it looks ordinary, but in fact it is ordinary and not as transformed as people imagine.

But it was obvious that Gray was still a little complacent.

He waved his hands to Lin Ran and Yang Jianlong in mockery.

Lin Ran nodded and looked at Yin Fei next to him.

I saw that Yin Fei's face was pale, and he had no joy at all in picking up the leak.

He had already seen that he was completely tricked by Lin Ran.

It's just that if you want to get Gray's money, you have to force a smile and pretend that nothing is wrong.

Anyway, he is the best master Gray can hire, and no one else can see the problem for the time being.

Tian Zhenying noticed their actions.

I felt puzzled in my heart, what could be the difference between an old man like Gray and these two middle-aged and young people who are not from the same generation at all?

It seemed that Gray was extremely unconvinced by them, like mortal enemies.

Then he asked out of curiosity: "Did any of you offend him?"

"No, we have a good relationship with Gray." Lin Ran joked.

The subsequent auction work seemed uneventful.

A total of 12 items were sold at the auction, and Gray ended up with a celadon carved plum vase, a purple clay pot and a bronze brush washer, all of which were not very valuable.

After the auction ended, he brought Yin Fei to Lin Ran to show off.

Yin Fei felt a little embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

Gray spends money like water and thinks he is very stylish.

"How come you guys are still empty-handed?" Gray said with a smile, "Would you like me to give you one? The spittoon at home is also left over from the Qing Dynasty, as a souvenir for you. Although it has been used, it is still very clean after washing."

"You'd better go to bed." Lin Ran said in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be polite on the outside.

"Uncle Ge has a unique vision, and Lin admires it." Lin Ran said to him with clasped fists.

Originally, Gray came to laugh at them, but he didn't expect Lin Ran to take the initiative to give in. He was also caught off guard.

As for reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, he patted Lin Ran on the shoulder and said: "Actually, you have good taste. Alas, it's a pity that you are too young. If you want to set up a street stall in Liuyunbao City in the future, just tell me and I will save you three Monthly stall fee.”
