Antique Dealer

Chapter 295 The Truth
After listening to Fang Hao's explanation, Zhang Qingfan became interested: "The bracelet I gave to my wife back then was accidentally broken into five pieces. How far can it be repaired?"

Fang Hao replied: "It depends on the level of the restoration master. If the level is high, it will be difficult to see if you don't look carefully after the restoration. If you are sure you want to repair it, I will go back to Beijing to help you find out."

Zhang Qingfan replied with a smile: "I'm sorry to trouble you, after I celebrate the New Year, I should go to the capital, and then I will look for you again."

Everyone chatted casually, and the carriage became quiet again.

Li Mingchao couldn't bear Ma Hongfei's silence, so he couldn't help but said: "Brother Fei, since the incident has already happened, you should face it bravely and say it. As a brother, I can also give you advice. Like you, everyone wants to help you. There is no way!"

Fang Hao also said: "When everyone makes mistakes, don't be afraid of what to do if you make a mistake. As long as you face your mistakes, learn from them, and don't make the same mistakes next time, you will be fine."

Ma Hongfei was silent for a while, and finally said: "I just feel so ashamed!"

It turned out that after Ma Hongfei came to Xingzhou, he called Duan Haier. Duan Haier didn't expect that Ma Hongfei would come, so he asked Ma Hongfei to go to a coffee shop near the hospital where her father was being treated.

After Ma Hongfei arrived, he saw Duan Haier and felt a little distressed seeing her haggard a lot, so he didn't want to talk about Duan Haier thoroughly at this time.

The two of them hadn't chatted a few words, Duan Haier received a call from the hospital, saying that they had to pay the fee, and Duan Haier left in a hurry.

Ma Hongfei was about to drink coffee and leave when suddenly a middle-aged man came in, the one Fang Hao and the others had seen.

The middle-aged man introduced himself as Duan Haier's third uncle, and asked Ma Hongfei if he was Duan Haier's boyfriend.Ma Hongfei originally wanted to say we broke up, but when the words came to his lips, he nodded and said yes.

The middle-aged man sat down and chatted with Ma Hongfei, thus learning about Ma Hongfei's situation.Ma Hongfei also judged from what the middle-aged man said about Duan Haier that the middle-aged man and Duan Haier should indeed be related.

Immediately, the middle-aged man said that Duan Haier's father had spent a lot of money in the hospital this time, and the family had some difficulties.

Ma Hongfei originally thought that the middle-aged man wanted him to lend some money to Duan Haier, but unexpectedly the middle-aged man changed the subject and asked Ma Hongfei if he understood antique jade.

At that time Ma Hongfei boasted that he knew a thing or two, and even brought out Fang Hao, saying that even if he didn't understand, he could call Fang Hao over.

Afterwards, the middle-aged man said that he wanted to sell a bracelet from his ancestors in an antique shop, but after going to several shops, the most expensive person was willing to give [-] yuan, and the brothers did not sell it.

This time, because Duan Haier's father spent a lot of money on treatment, he wanted to sell the bracelet for money. If Ma Hongfei wanted to, he could go back with him to have a look. If he liked it, he could sell it to him for [-] yuan.

Influenced by Fang Hao and Li Mingchao, Ma Hongfei knew that in the antique business, if he was not an acquaintance, the channel would be wrong, and the price reduction must be serious. After all, the bosses wanted to make money, otherwise they wouldn't be able to open their doors every three years.

Therefore, if the middle-aged man says that he is only willing to give [-] at most, it is normal for the actual value to double.

When Ma Hongfei thought of this, his heart began to move, but he was also worried that he would not be able to tell the truth from the fake, and he would miss it at that time.

The middle-aged man saw Ma Hongfei's entanglement, and told him that the things must be fine, and there is a certificate issued by an authoritative organization, which guarantees that it is genuine Hetian jade, and he can check the certificate at that time.

Hearing this, Ma Hongfei felt a little relieved, and the idea of ​​picking up leaks rose again.

Speaking of which, Fang Hao often picks up leaks, and now he has an antique shop before he officially graduated, and now he has become a winner in life, which makes him somewhat jealous. Now that there is an opportunity to pick up leaks in front of him, it makes no sense not to go take a look.

As for the jade, if the jade is very expensive, it is better to compensate Duan Haier some money afterwards, it is better than others.

So Ma Hongfei agreed and went back with the middle-aged man.

What happened afterwards is basically understood by everyone.

In fact, not long after the incident happened, Ma Hongfei realized that he was on the right track. At the same time, he learned through the conversation that the reason why he was treated like this was mainly because of Duan Haier. Yes, this is something he never thought of. He feels that life is so magical, and this kind of thing still happens to him in these years.

It's just that since the matter has already happened, he has nothing to complain about, and he has to blame for everything.

As for the reason why he didn't dare to face Fang Hao directly, on the one hand, the reason why he stepped into this situation was not unrelated to his jealousy of Fang Hao; on the other hand, when eating and chatting with Fang Hao, Fang Hao often mentioned The antique market is complicated and scams are emerging one after another. It is best not to believe that there is nothing like a pie in the sky.And what he is doing now is actually a negative example of what Fang Hao said.

Ma Hongfei was actually proud in his heart. After this happened, he felt that it was difficult for him to face Fang Hao, and he had to rely on Fang Hao to save him, and he couldn't turn the corner for a while.

Knowing the whole story, Fang Hao laughed: "Brother Fei, what did you tell me to say about you, I thought something happened. Ask my friends, they are more jealous of me, this is human normal emotions, what's the big deal?
As for the cases of failure to control greed, which resulted in eyeballs, there are many cases. For example, Tang Mingshan in my shop just opened an eyeball and lost tens of thousands. "

Li Mingchao asked in surprise, "When did it happen?"

"It happened the day before yesterday." Fang Hao briefly talked about Tang Mingshan's experience, and then said to Ma Hongfei: "Look, the liars are very powerful now. So, your matter is nothing at all, so relax, next time you will be really serious." If you want to buy antiques, it’s best to let Brother Chao and I hold the eye.”

Li Mingchao smiled: "I'll forget it, I still have to find Brother Hao when I buy antiques. Besides, for people like you, don't come to this kind of place when you buy antiques."

If it was Fang Hao and Li Mingchao, when they arrived in this village, they would be vigilant. The reason is very simple. This village is so poor that they might not have enough food and clothing in the past. How many valuable things will the common people pass down?
After everyone's persuasion, Ma Hongfei's mood finally improved.

When the car drove down the mountain road, it was almost past lunch time. Everyone found a small restaurant on the side of the road and ordered a few dishes for lunch. In addition, Fang Hao ordered another bottle of white wine to drink with Ma Hongfei. , Let him relieve the pressure.

After everyone sat down for a while, the restaurant began to serve food. Not to mention, although the restaurant is small, the food tastes pretty good.

Fang Hao poured wine for Ma Hongfei and Li Mingchao, Zhang Qingfan didn't drink, said with a smile, he drove them back to the hotel.

Fang Hao picked up the wine glass: "Brother Fei, the past is the past, let's look forward to everything, if you encounter any problems, you can come to us."

Li Mingchao also said: "Yes, since this is the case, don't get entangled, just take it easy, don't hold it in your heart, and it will ruin you."

Ma Hongfei was very warm in his heart: "I will say more if I thank you, I have done it, you can do whatever you want!"

After speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Fang Hao and Li Mingchao followed closely behind.

After drinking a glass of wine, the atmosphere became obviously better, and everyone talked more. Ma Hongfei also slowly opened up, thinking that he was too stupid, why did he find Duan Haier as his girlfriend, and he had unrealistic thoughts in his heart , but now he has stumbled, and he owes Fang Hao so much money before he graduates.

At the end, Ma Hongfei's eyes were moist.

Fang Hao comforted Ma Hongfei, and said that he should not pay too much attention to the money, and he could pay it back slowly after Ma Hongfei graduated.

Zhang Qingfan also said that if it can be proved that the bracelet was indeed dug from the tomb, the money may be recovered.

Under general persuasion, Ma Hongfei also felt better, and with the effect of alcohol, his mood gradually brightened.

When the meal was coming to an end, three women came in suddenly. Fang Hao looked up and saw that they were the few people he met on the mountain.

The middle-aged woman still had exhaustion and loss on her face, and it was obvious that the result was not very good.

When the middle-aged woman saw Fang Hao and the others, she nodded and greeted them, and the female bodyguard next to her said to the restaurant owner, "Boss, is there any food left?"

The boss said: "On the signboard, there are everything except rabbit meat. Just order whatever you want."

The female bodyguard looked at the dishes on Fang Hao's table and ordered similar dishes. Afterwards, she helped the middle-aged woman wash the tableware and poured a glass of water from the kettle she carried with her.

"Boss Ding, please drink some water."

Ding Huifen picked up the cup and took a few sips, then sighed softly.

The female bodyguard quickly comforted: "Mr. Ding, don't worry, we will find someone at the party."

Ding Huifen frowned slightly: "What I'm worried about now is that he avoids seeing me."

"I don't think so."

"Xiao Wen, you don't understand."

Speaking of this, Ding Huifen felt a little melancholy again. At this time, she heard Ma Hongfei say: "Brother Hao, I didn't go to your antique shop opening ceremony on New Year's Day. I apologize to you and punish myself with a cup."

Seeing Ding Huifen looking there, the female bodyguard quickly said, "Mr. Ding, do you think it's too noisy over there? I'll go and tell them."

"No need." Ding Huifen waved her hand, and then she heard that Ma Hongfei and the others were all praising Fang Hao's eyesight, and she was a little surprised. Could it be that this young man is still a master? Could this be flattery among friends?

Thinking of this, her heart moved, it was fate to meet her twice today, if so, then please ask that young man to take a look, maybe he will find something?

Thinking of this, she stood up, and the female bodyguard quickly asked: "Mr. Ding, just tell me what you want to do."

"I'm going to ask them about something."

Ding Huifen walked to Fang Hao and the others at the table.

Seeing Ding Huifen approaching, Zhang Qingfan thought she still wanted to ask them about Ding Dahong, so he took the initiative to say: "Madam, we really don't know the Ding Dahong you mentioned earlier."

Ding Huifen smiled slightly: "Sir, you misunderstood. I want to ask this teacher to help me look at something. Is it convenient? Don't worry, I will definitely pay the fee."

"Ma'am, I'm really sorry, but I usually don't identify others outside."

As I said before, Fang Hao generally does not appraise strangers now. If something is really good, if it is a fake, it may go wrong after the appraisal. Although the probability of this is not high, if it happens, it will He caused trouble, it might as well be blocked directly.

Ding Huifen didn't expect Fang Hao to refuse so quickly, but it aroused her rebellious psychology. She took out a photo from her bag and put it on the table: "Teacher, I actually want to ask you to help find the photo in the photo. the same thing."

Fang Hao looked at the photo curiously, and found that it was a black-and-white photo of some years ago. On it was a dzi bead, and it was also a dzi bead.

As mentioned above, the earliest Tianzhu was polished from conch fossils, called "Faluo Tianzhu", which is the first generation of Tianzhu; the other is polished from nine-eye stone shale containing jade and agate. The formed dzi is called "nine-eye shale dzi", also known as "tianyan dzi", which is the second generation of dzi.

Faluo Dzi Beads are formed by the fusion of countless complete plankton and snail fossils in the ancient Mediterranean, and crystallized jade after hundreds of millions of years of natural and geographical environment changes.Each shape is different, the color is vivid and beautiful, crystal clear.

The original stone of Faluo Dzi is rare, irreproducible, and has a strong magnetic field. It is regarded as a "treasure worn by gods" by Tibetan compatriots, and it is even known as "the treasure of treasures" in Buddhism.

Seeing that Ding Huifen actually wanted to find the Faluo Dzi in the photo, Fang Hao felt a little speechless. You must know that Faluo Dzi was very rare in ancient times.Nowadays, it is not only not seen in the market, but even in Tibetan Buddhism, it is a top-level sacred object, and the price is simply incalculable.In other words, it is definitely not available.

Fang Hao raised his head: "Madam, do you know the value of the object in the photo?"

Ding Huifen saw that Fang Hao recognized the dzi bead in the photo at a glance, she cheered up, and quickly said: "I know its value is immeasurable, but what I want is it..."

Fang Hao waved his hand and interrupted her: "Ma'am, forgive me for not being able to agree."

The Faluo Dzi Bead in the photo can be said to be priceless, such a treasure, why does this woman let him, a stranger, look for it? Isn't this a joke!
Ding Huifen said: "You misunderstood, what I want is not the Faluo Dzi, but the thing on the table behind the photo."

Because the photo was too old, Fang Hao ignored the scene behind just now. He looked at the photo again, and there was indeed a special object on the table.

After careful identification, Fang Hao recognized the thing. The porcelain was made up of two lotus flowers. Therefore, this kind of porcelain has a very professional name called "Lianhua Zun".Those who study Buddhism should know that lotus has a great relationship with Buddha, so this kind of porcelain is basically related to Buddhism.

Fang Hao was somewhat embarrassed, and he himself had made a preconceived mistake, so his tone was more polite: "Sorry, I didn't pay attention just now, are you looking for the Lotus Venerable?"
