    Seeing that Meng Zitao was hesitant and didn¡¯t know what to say, Zheng Anzhi asked with a smile: "Then let¡¯s change the question. Some people say that picking up leaks is immoral. What do you think?"

    Meng Zitao thought for a while and said carefully: "I think if both the buyer and the seller agree on the price, it should not be considered an immoral behavior. I think the reason why they think so may be that they think that in this world,  There are only wrong purchases, not wrong sales. As long as there are no accidents, merchants should make money, and the risk can only fall on consumers."

    "Such a truth may be true in other industries, but it is not necessarily true in the antique market. As the old saying goes, art is priceless, and the value of a piece of art is in everyone's eyes.  It¡¯s different, as long as one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, there will be no problem.¡±

    "For example, a blue and white jar from the Kangxi period is worth 100,000 in the eyes of the seller, but is worth 300,000 or 400,000 in the eyes of the buyer. After negotiation between the two parties, it was finally sold for 400,000. However, some people were willing to pay 600,000.  Wan, if I bought this blue and white jar from the buyer, did the buyer miss it? Is this an unethical act?"

    "Besides, every real antique has its own characteristics. In the long run, its value will definitely show an upward trend. If the value is consistent with the market price, then I think everyone is actually buying an antique.  Every time, I am picking up leaks.¡±

    "So, I think the saying 'picking up leaks is an immoral act' is completely false. It doesn't necessarily mean that if an antique is offered for 50,000 yuan and I counter-offer 60,000 yuan, then it can be regarded as a moral act? If someone really thinks so  If so, I think he should go to the hospital to have his brain checked to see if it¡¯s broken.¡±

    Zheng Anzhi laughed: "Then do you think that the Arhat Bowl you got is a normal transaction?"

    Maybe he was afraid that there was something wrong with Meng Zitao's answer, Wang Zhixuan couldn't help but said: "Of course it is a normal transaction. If Xiao Meng hadn't wanted to help the grandfather and grandson, there would have been such a high price. And if there hadn't been this accident,  Xiao Meng must have suffered a loss."

    Meng Zitao was a little embarrassed after hearing this. He was not that great. If he had not discovered that there was something wrong with the Arhat Bowl in advance, he would not have given such a high price.

    Zheng Anzhi smiled and said: "Then let me ask another question. If the seller was not the couple, Xiao Meng, would you have hesitated just now?"

    Meng Zitao shook his head: "That will definitely not happen."

    Zheng Anzhi smiled and said, "Then can you talk about your views on picking up leaks?"

    Meng Zitao pondered for a moment and then said: "Now think about it, picking up leaks does have something to do with morality. If it is just an ordinary transaction, it has nothing to do with morality. As long as both parties are dealing fairly, there will be no problem at all. But if the seller  If you have difficulties, from a moral perspective, you can help.¡±

    Another thing Meng Zitao didn¡¯t say is that this gang must be appropriate. As the old saying goes, poor people must be hateful. Let¡¯s not talk about whether this statement is too absolute, but from some aspects, it does make sense.

    Even if you don¡¯t mention Qian Dexiang, Meng Zitao has experienced this kind of thing before.  At that time, he was still living in an old house. An old couple named Wu lived next door. Their children were working in other places, and their family was not well-off.

    Once, Uncle Wu fell ill and almost all his small savings were spent. It is said that he almost ran out of money to buy rice.

    It just so happened that Meng Shuliang bought a lot of steamed buns that day. Seeing how pitiful the couple was, he asked Meng Zitao to send some steamed buns over.

    Aunt Wu looked very happy when she took the steamed buns. However, when Meng Zitao turned around and was about to leave, he vaguely heard Aunt Wu muttering dissatisfiedly: "It's just a solid steamed bun!"

    After hearing this, Meng Zitao didn¡¯t know what to say. He really wanted to go back and get the steamed buns back.

    So, not all seemingly pitiful people are truly pitiful people. Some people are just cruel and cruel. Being kind to such people is just to make yourself miserable.

    Zheng Anzhi also knew this truth, but Meng Zitao did not say it out loud to avoid making people think it was verbose.

    Zheng Anzhi smiled and nodded, but then changed the topic to another topic. He didn't know whether he agreed with Meng Zitao's statement or not, which made Meng Zitao feel very uneasy.

    Usually Zheng Anzhi would take a nap, so the three of them sat for a while, looked at how late the time was, and then said goodbye.

    After getting in the car, Meng Zitao couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle Wang, what do Mr. Zheng think of what I just said?"

    Wang Zhixuan smiled and said: "You are really a fan of the authorities. If Mr. Zheng has an opinion about you, then he still"??It is not convenient for us to disclose the matter. If you want to know, ask Uncle Jin yourself.  "

    "Second uncle, how much did the things cost?" the middle-aged woman asked.

    The old man said excitedly and tremblingly: "Tenone hundred thousand!"

    Considering the situation at the old man's home, Meng Zitao and the others did not tell the old man the truth when the middle-aged woman came over. But even so, the old man was shocked because he originally thought that at most 40,000 to 50,000 would be good.  , it doubled directly without realizing it.

    The middle-aged woman was also shocked and asked: "Second uncle, did you really only sell a bowl and a bird feeder?"

    Old Yang corrected him: "That's called a bird food jar, not something to feed birds. It's a precious cultural relic that has been passed down for hundreds of years. It's normal to sell it for 100,000." (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
