Lao Yang told what happened, and said to the store with a stern face: "Did I fabricate the facts just now? Just tell me, whether you will return it to me or not!"
The storekeeper raised one corner of his mouth slightly, revealing an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile. The answer was self-evident.
The store owner's attitude made Lao Yang half-dead angry, and he was about to raise his voice to show off. Meng Zitao pulled him aside and persuaded him softly: "Old Yang, the other party's current attitude is nothing more than talking more. I think we can still retreat." How much is what?"
"But he wants eight thousand, how can there be such a reason?" Lao Yang said angrily.
Meng Zitao asked back: "Then let me ask you, have you known him before? Have you ever heard of his character?"
"Uh" Lao Yang was speechless. In the final analysis, he was really too gullible.
Speaking of which, the antiques industry really values ??credibility. Is it a one-time deal? Of course there are, but most of them happen in places with high liquidity like street stalls.
As for the antique shops that are open to welcome customers, even if the store owners want to play tricks, they will not make fun of their own credibility. Ruining their own reputation is equivalent to cutting off their own financial resources.
In the past, Meng Zitao had heard of such a true story. It was said that a certain shopkeeper went to the countryside to get goods and got an early Qing Dynasty huanghuali official hat chair. Due to disrepair, one of the legs of the chair was broken. , so the shopkeeper asked someone to repair it, and it became a mountain-climbing product. He temporarily left it at home.
The shopkeeper¡¯s nephew was also traveling with him. One day he went to his house to play and saw this chair. He fell in love with it at first sight and asked the shopkeeper to give him the chair.
The shopkeeper agreed without saying a word, and the price was actually based on the price of the complete device.
The nephew happily took the chair back. When he was about to take action, he discovered the problem after being pointed out by an expert. The other party was his own uncle. Although he was angry, he could only hold his nose and admit it.
Finally, this matter spread, and everyone behind the scenes felt that the shopkeeper was so unreasonable. He could do this to his own nephew, but how could he do it to other customers? Gradually, no one did business with the shopkeeper, and eventually the good antique shop closed its doors.
From this story, we can also see the importance of credibility when making antiques. You can be clever, but when you suffer a loss in the future, don¡¯t blame others.
This truth is actually obvious, but some people just don¡¯t understand it, or they don¡¯t take it seriously because money is more important in their eyes. For such people, they can only stay away from it.
Meng Zitao can imagine what the business of this store will be like from today.
Lao Yang was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, I won't do it for eight thousand. If it doesn't work, I'll make a fuss. I can afford the compensation for forty-eight thousand."
Meng Zitao said: "Don't be so excited first, let's talk about it later."
The two of them walked back, and Meng Zitao said: "Shopkeeper, we don't want a full refund. How about we all give in and leave you one thousand?"
The store owner shook his head: "No, if my friend doesn't want to return, wouldn't I lose money?"
"The two thousand?"
"No way."
"Then how much do you want?" Lao Yang asked a little uncontrollably.
The store owner was silent for a while: "I can decide whether to pay a thousand less or find another solution."
Old Yang was about to make a sarcastic comment, but when he heard the twist, he asked, "What can we do?"
The store owner smiled and said: "This method is also simple. You just need to buy goods worth no less than 48,000 yuan in my store."
Old Yang smiled and said, "You are so thoughtful. Are the things you have here worth 48,000 yuan?"
Meng Zitao looked around. All the porcelain displayed in this store was dazzling. There were plum vases, general jars, pen holders, incense burners, vases, blue and white, multicolored, pastel, monochromatic glazes, etc. Wait, you can find them all here.
But as Lao Yang said, the things here can only fool the layman. Meng Zitao can see at a glance that most of the porcelain is modern handicrafts and fakes. As for the remaining part, there are a few old ones. Goods, but they all seem to be of little value.
"The other part is just because the distance is far and the light is dark and it is difficult to see clearly. But just because the store placed them in a corner, he knew they would not be good things.
The store owner chuckled and said, "Anyway, I'll leave it here. Either you keep seven thousand, or you take forty-eight thousand."?, there are only these two options, you can do whatever you want. "
At the end of the sentence, the store owner saw Meng Zitao looking at him with a smile. Those two eyes seemed to see through him inside and out, making him dare not look at Meng Zitao.
After hearing the store's suggestion, Lao Yang sneered: "You have a good idea. Do you want Shopkeeper Meng to help you check for free to see if there is anything leaking in the store?"
The store owner was not angry when his background was exposed, and said calmly: "You guys decide quickly, it's getting late, I have to go back to eat."
Lao Yang gritted his teeth: "Okay, seven thousand, seven thousand, give me the money!"
When the store owner heard this, he felt a little disappointed, but now he definitely couldn't go back on his word anymore, so he could only give Lao Yang the remaining 41,000 yuan.
Lao Yang counted the money, and when he saw that there was no problem, he was ready to leave with Meng Zitao.
"Do we accept used goods here?" At this time, a young man suddenly walked in from the door with a can in his arms.
Meng Zitao's eyes lit up slightly when he saw the jar in the young man's hand. He knew at the first glance that this piece of porcelain must be a second-hand item.
So, Meng Zitao said first, "Sir, are you planning to sell this thing?"
"Nonsense, I didn't say all that just now." The young man said angrily.
Meng Zitao chuckled: "Can you show it to me?"
"this¡¡"
The store owner immediately interrupted the young man: "Wait a minute, Shopkeeper Meng, please pay attention to where this place is. I hope you won't turn your back on us."
Meng Zitao shrugged his shoulders: "Sir, can we go out and look at it again? As long as the goods are good and the price is negotiable."
The store owner said angrily: "Shopkeeper Meng, do you understand the rules?!"
Lao Yang suddenly laughed: "Someone is actually asking for rules now. I know how thick-skinned he is."
"You" The store owner pointed at Lao Yang, but he did not keep his promise before, how can he defend himself now.
Seeing the tense situation between the two sides, the young man rolled his eyes and said, "Let's take a look at the things here. You guys should be quick, I'm in a hurry."
The young man put the jar he was holding on a shelf aside. He also took out a jade pendant from his pocket and placed it next to the jar.
Meng Zitao has quick eyes and quick hands. He walked up quickly and picked up the jar to admire it. Although the store owner was angry, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't grab it. If the jar accidentally dropped, it would be in trouble.
This is a strong jar. The strong jar is a popular jar style in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It has a straight mouth, folded shoulders, a tube belly, an inward fold under the belly, a lid, and a mouth and foot of the same diameter.
This kind of strong jar was first created during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and was copied until the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, from the Xuande period to the Qianlong period, this kind of strong pot was basically produced by official kilns. It was a standard utensil of official kilns, and it did not have a mark. It was often called "official kiln utensil without a mark".
The specific characteristics are that the glaze of the products made during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty was fat and moist, while the glaze layer of the imitations made during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty was even and thin.
This kind of porcelain often appeared in auctions organized by several major domestic auction companies in the late 1990s, and the transaction prices ranged from 10,000 to 20,000 at the beginning to 70,000 to 80,000 in the early 2000s. The price is getting higher and higher, and it is very popular in the market.
However, in all auctions, many of these strong jars are from the Qianlong period, while those from the Yongxuan and Chenghua periods are quite rare.
As soon as Meng Zitao got his hands on the strong pot in front of him, he knew that it should be from an official kiln in Chenghua. The number handed down from generation to generation is quite rare, and there are only a handful of similar collections in museums around the world.
This strong jar has a short and stocky body. The neck is painted with a Ruyi cloud pattern, the outside of the feet is painted with a curly grass pattern, and the main pattern on the abdomen is a lotus pattern. The main pattern has symmetrical zigzag and wavy patterns on the upper and lower parts, from the mouth to the feet. There are seven layers of decorations, which are similar to those in the Yongle period of the Forbidden City, but different (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
