    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry."

    After saying that, he picked up the blue and white vase and looked at it carefully. In addition, in addition to the blue and white vase, there were some bowls and plates in the box, and he also looked at them carefully one by one.

    During this process, the wife helped the employees move things, while the husband watched from the side, and then asked: "How is it? How much is it worth?"

    Meng Zitao looked around and said, "Look, there are too many people here. Do you want to find a quieter place to talk?"

    The husband said: "Little brother, I'm sorry, you have also seen that my family is moving today, and it is still very messy up there. How about we go over there to talk?"

    "OK¡­¡­"

    The group of people walked aside, and Meng Zitao asked, "What's your surname, eldest brother?"

    "My surname is Zhang, Zhang Zhengqi." Zhang Zhengqi said, "Okay, that's all that needs to be said. Can you tell me how much this thing is worth?"

    Meng Zitao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, we are in business. It is not appropriate for me to say how much something is worth. The key is to see what you want."

    Zhang Zhengqi said: "I don't understand. What price do you want me to offer? I want one hundred thousand, and you won't agree, right?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "One hundred thousand dollars is definitely impossible. How about this blue and white vase plus these dishes and bowls, even if it costs eight thousand dollars?"

    "Eight thousand." Zhang Zhengqi rolled his eyes and seemed a little moved, but he immediately said: "Wait a minute, I will discuss it with my wife."

    "no problem."

    After a while, Zhang Zhengqi called his wife over. His wife said bluntly: "If you want it, take it for 12,000 yuan."

    Meng Zitao shook his head: "The price is a bit high. I will lose money if I buy it."

    Zhang Zhengqi's wife said: "What are you losing? I am also a businessman. Which of you collects something that is not at least folded in half? Besides, we don't understand antiques or not. Who knows how much this thing is worth? I didn't turn it over directly.  Doubling it is enough.¡±

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Sister, what you said is too absolute. I am a gentleman who loves money and gets it in a proper way. Just like what I said to my eldest brother just now, we are in business, and I must lower the price.  Yes, but if you want to say it¡¯s folded in half or even lower, then it¡¯s definitely not there.¡±

    "In this case, I will add another thousand to you, let's call it nine thousand, what do you think? Of course, we met by chance today, and you don't know the market. If you think it is too little, you can take it to an acquaintance or an antique street first.  Just to ask."

    After hearing this, the couple discussed again, and Zhang Zhengqi said: "Little brother, just like you said, it's our first time to meet, so we can't say whether we believe it or not. Otherwise, you can put these few  Please introduce the item, and we will consider whether to sell it to you, but don¡¯t worry, even if we don¡¯t sell it, we will pay you a thousand yuan.¡±

    Meng Zitao said calmly: "Of course there is no problem with this. Let me tell you first that these pieces of porcelain are not from official kilns. Otherwise, they would not be worth just this money"

    Next, Meng Zitao introduced these pieces of porcelain one by one. During this period, a man in his thirties happened to be passing by, and he came up to him curiously. It was not a confidential matter anyway, and everyone did not let him know.  leave.

    Meng Zitao said: "The situation is like this. You can go to other places to ask. If it is not right, you can go to my store to find me and I will refund the money to you."

    The couple were somewhat dubious about Meng Zitao¡¯s vow: ¡°Really?¡±

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Of course, if you feel uneasy, I can write you a note."

    Zhang Zhengqi looked at the man who came up to him. He recognized his identity and immediately left with a smile. He then said: "Since the little brother said it so openly, we can sell these things to you, but can you add more?"  One thousand is a round number."

    Meng Zitao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "To be honest, this price is indeed a bit high, but I don't want to come here in vain, so let's take this price. Do you want cash or transfer?"

    "change¡­¡­"

    Zhang Zhengqi tugged on his wife's clothes: "It's better to pay in cash, just in time to pay the moving company's money."

    "Okay, let's pay in cash"

    After completing the transaction, Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Do you have a digital camera? You can take photos of these things. You can ask your friends to take a look in the future. If you think it is okay, if youLiving here, shouldn't we be dragged down by poverty?  "And told the tinsmith the whole story.

    The tinsmith replied: "It's easy."

    So, the eunuch and the tinsmith went to the palace to report the matter to the emperor.  The emperor also plans to watch it in person.  I went to the back garden in person for this purpose.  And he called all the previous craftsmen into the courtyard and asked them one by one.  The craftsmen answered the same questions as yesterday.

    The tinsmith stepped forward alone, took a piece of gold and forged it. The gold was forged into paper-thin form, and then he picked it up and wrapped it around the bottle.

    Everyone laughed and said: "Who can't do this? I know you are a low-level craftsman, how can you gild it inside?"

    The tinsmith didn't answer with a smile. After a while, he peeled off the gold foil wrapped on the bottle, fixed it on a silver chopstick and inserted it into the bottle. He slowly dripped mercury into the bottle, capped the bottle mouth, and shook it back and forth to fill the bottle with mercury.  .  Unexpectedly, the gold foil was all attached to the inner wall without any gaps. Later, it was slowly corrected and evened out.

    Seeing this, the craftsmen next to them stared at each other in shock.

    Then, the tinsmith introduced: "How can a utensil like glass withstand the shock of a hard object? Only mercury is soft and heavy, and pouring it in slowly will not cause damage to the bottle. Even though the properties of mercury will corrode gold,  But it doesn¡¯t matter if you can¡¯t see it with your eyes.¡±

    After Song Huizong heard this, he was very happy and rewarded the tinsmith heavily

    After listening to the story told by Meng Zitao, Yu Weigang said in surprise: "Zitao, you don't mean to say that these two bottles are the ones in the story, right?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Of course I can't be sure about this, but these two gall bottles have smooth inner walls, deliberately polished outer walls, and gilding. At that time, only the nobles of the royal palace could use them, and private ownership was not allowed.  It can be said to be very precious. Just like this, the price of two bile bottles is more than 600,000." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
