"Sister, who deceived you with these words?"

Zhang Yang looked at Sister Gao who looked a little arrogant and couldn't laugh or cry.

She spoke loudly, as if she had not been defrauded of 1,600 yuan, but had made 160,000 yuan.

"This is common sense, don't you know?"

Sister Gao immediately showed Zhang Yang her theoretical basis:

"Buying antiques at original prices will not beat inflation."

“A large number of national treasures have been lost to the public”

"Knowing the past is endless"...

She also asked Zhang Yang: "Do you know what the myth of the Big Willow Tree is? For three hundred yuan, I bought a wooden Buddha statue, and later sold it for three hundred thousand."

Zhang Yang asked angrily: "Even if there is a myth, it is still a ghost market in Yanjing. What are you picking up in Linhai Antique City?"

This question really revealed something.

Sister Gao immediately took out her phone, opened the Xiaopo Station and showed it to Zhang Yang:

"Look, Master Qiu picked up a leak in Linhai Antique City."

Xu Jie and Tang Qiyun also gathered around to understand with Zhang Yang why Sister Gao could be so stubborn even after losing a month's worth of food on an antique.

"There are many coins for treasure hunting, true and false Daqiu said. Hello everyone, I am Master Qiu..."

After listening to the opening remarks at the beginning of the video, Zhang Yang quickly paused the video.

Master Qiu?

Isn't this the UP owner he met when he first went to Linhai Antique City?

"Boss, what's wrong?" Xu Jie looked confused.

"Look at the tall and handsome figure behind him, does it look familiar?"

Zhang Yang pointed to the white figure next to the antique city sign and said.

"Boss, isn't this you?" Tang Qiyun asked.

"Good eyesight." Zhang Yang gave Xiao Tang a thumbs up.

"Let me see?"

Sister Gao also came over to join in the fun. After taking a look at the figure, she tilted her head and looked at Tang Qiyun.

"Xiao Tang, are you a little too deliberate in your flattery? Since you are a newcomer, I won't do it again."

"Ah? No, no, he really looks like the boss. And the schoolbag he is carrying was given to him during a volunteer activity in the History College." Tang Qiyun quickly explained.

"Xiao Tang is right. Master Qiu, he followed me into the antique city."

"But he didn't find anything valuable before I picked it up and left."

Zhang Yang was sure of this, because in the antique shop, he walked around completely and only picked up one leak.

"That's because you left early. Later, Master Qiu picked up a lot of good things."

Sister Gao swiped her phone and clicked on the time portal above the "saving money" comment pinned to the top of the comment area:

"The first piece is a small plate with lotus pattern from Ding kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty."

In the video, Master Qiu is smiling broadly, holding a palm-sized white porcelain plate in his hand to show to the audience.

There is a depressed-looking clerk behind her, as if to hint to the audience that the items are sold from her.

"Isn't this clerk Fang Tiantian?"

Zhang Yang immediately doubted the authenticity of the porcelain plate.

If it was really missed, wouldn't this woman catch up and buy it back for a few hundred yuan more?

Regardless of the viewing experience of the remaining three people, Zhang Yang played the video shown by Master Qiu over and over again.

More than a minute later, the item information showed that this was indeed something from the Ding Kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty.

There is only one explanation left: the items are genuine items from an antique store, and they are used to match the traffic-drawing video shot by Master Qiu. The purpose is to guide the audience to go shopping with the mentality of picking up missing items.

The evidence is: Fang Tiantian was still in the mood to pose for photos when she heard Master Qiu show off the origin of things.

"Boss, is this real?" Tang Qiyun asked in a low voice when she realized that Zhang Yang seemed to have finished reading.

"The stuff is right, but the price is hard to say. This UP owner said it's worth hundreds of thousands, but it's definitely not that high."

"It's a reference price, why are you so serious about it?" Sister Gao said nonchalantly.

"Let's look at the second piece, a hammer vase with Yunlong bead pattern from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty."

"Wait a minute, is there anyone who doesn't have a background in this antique shop?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Of course there is, it's in the back!"

"Then look from the back to the front." Zhang Yang directly clicked on the "portal" of the fifth antique.

"Early Ming Dynasty, wooden lacquered gold seated Guanyin statue."

Still the same as before, he watched the clips shown back and forth.

This time there was no shilling behind the scenes, and the quality of the stuff really dropped.

"This Guanyin statue is a new imitation. It is an antique handicraft from Shanjin Province." Zhang Yang quickly gave the identification result.

The three employees believed his words, and no one questioned them.

Soon, all five "leaks" picked up by Master Qiu were appraised.

Three items in the antique shop are genuine, while two items on the street stall are fake.

Obviously, the leak was staged.

Logically speaking, if a fake antique is discovered, the authenticity of Master Qiu’s video should arouse everyone’s suspicion.

But Sister Gao’s logic is still in a closed-loop state:

"It's normal for one or two things to be mistaken. Master Qiu himself said that the craftsmanship of counterfeiting is so advanced nowadays that even national treasure appraisal experts sometimes make mistakes."

"The three items bought in the antique store in front are all genuine. It means that it is better to go to a regular antique store to find out the missing items more easily."

"If I had watched this video with my boss earlier, I would definitely not have gone to the street stall to buy that Guan Gong statue."

Master Qiu had to say both truth and irony, and Zhang Yang couldn't find any good reason to convince Sister Gao for a while.

Should I go to an antique store to prove that the video is fake?

Who would smash their own sign to wake up a middle-aged woman? They wish there were more people like Sister Gao.

"Okay, let's disperse."

After the two young men left, Zhang Yang reluctantly reminded Sister Gao: "Next time before you pick something up, you can ask me for confirmation via video."

He can only help here, since it's all about identifying treasures anyway.

“What if the shop owner doesn’t let me?”

"Then let's find another one. According to you, there are so many private national treasures, are you worried that you won't be able to find the real thing?"

"That makes sense." Sister Gao nodded with conviction.

At this time, Xu Jie, who had just walked out of the door for half a minute, came around again.

"Boss, I just called the Wang Xuerong you mentioned."

"You are such a fast boy."

Zhang Yang gave Xu Jie a thumbs up and asked him, "What did the other party say?"

"After she heard that you introduced me, she told me to get out of here."

"Really? Did you enter the number correctly?" Zhang Yang couldn't believe it.

Wang Xuerong is Wang Jianye's distant cousin, who is responsible for monetizing the antiques that have been eliminated from the museum. To a certain extent, she holds the financial power of the Hailin Museum.

Zhang Yang has a good relationship with her. After all, during his previous trip to Yangcheng, he generated a lot of revenue for the museum, and all the money passed through Wang Xuerong's hands.

"If you don't believe it, just call her and find out. She said she wants you to call and get scolded."

"Is this sister so hot-tempered?"

Zhang Yangtou was a bit stubborn, so he called Wang Xuerong directly.

After the call was connected, he asked with a smile: "What's wrong, cousin, I heard that you are eager to scold me?"

"Scolding you? I still want to hit you!"

"Why?"

"Let me ask you, Fang Tiantian, was it you who introduced Jianye?"

Wang Xuerong suppressed anger in her words, as if she was speaking through clenched teeth:

"Now this woman is going to destroy Jianye!"

"So serious? I didn't introduce her to her. On the contrary, she introduced me to Wang Jianye and the old man." Zhang Yang quickly clarified the relationship.

The last time he saw Wang Jianye, Zhang Yang felt that he was abnormal and seemed to be PUA.

Seeing that Zhang Yang had moved Wang Guosheng out, Wang Xuerong knew that he had made a mistake, and immediately apologized, and then told all the bad things that happened to Wang Jianye in the past few days.
