Road to Urban Heroes

Chapter 228 Too coincidental

Tang Ya was planning to talk to Lin Xiao, but she didn't see this plainly dressed old man coming over.

The two bumped into each other, Tang Ya exclaimed, and only with Lin Xiao's support did she stabilize her body.

The old man staggered and almost fell, but he still held the cloth bag tightly in his hands.

"I'm sorry, old man. I didn't see you just now. Are you okay?" After Tang Ya stabilized her figure, she hurried forward to apologize.

The old man didn't care about it, Tang Ya hurriedly lowered her head to look at her cloth bag, and quietly opened a corner, and he was relieved that the contents inside were intact.

It's just that Tang Ya's eyes also saw something inside the cloth bag, which was a blue and white porcelain vase.

She just glanced at it, and her eyes immediately lit up, and she couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

But she can't confirm it yet.

"Little girl, you should watch when you walk. How could you be so reckless? Fortunately, my things are fine, otherwise my old life would be gone!" the old man scolded Tang Ya.

Facing the old man's accusation, Tang Ya didn't look angry at all. First of all, he bumped into someone wrongly.

Secondly, he was still thinking about the contents of the old man's cloth bag.

"Old man, I'm really sorry. I was careless just now. I apologize to you." Tang Ya said with a smile.

The old man saw that Tang Ya's attitude was very sincere, and he hadn't suffered any harm, so he didn't plan to pursue it any further and wanted to leave.

Tang Ya hurriedly stopped the old man.

"Grandpa, please wait a moment. I think the direction you are going to is Antique Street. Do you want to go there and sell the antiques in your hand?" Tang Ya asked with a smile.

Listening to Tang Ya's words, the old man subconsciously hugged the cloth bag in his hand, and asked cautiously, "Did you see it just now?"

Lin Xiao watched the conversation between Tang Ya and the old man here, and knew that Tang Ya had met something of interest.

But what exactly was wrapped in the old man's cloth bag, he hadn't seen it just now.

So at this time, he didn't intend to interrupt, but watched what Tang Ya would do next.

"Grandpa, I did see it just now, but I just passed it at a glance. I feel like blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty." Tang Ya said with some uncertainty.

As soon as his words came out, the old man suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face, and looked around.

Seeing that no one was looking towards them, he quietly gave Tang Ya a thumbs up.

"You are a young girl, and you never thought you would have such good eyesight. This is indeed a blue and white porcelain vase from the Ming Dynasty." The old man said approvingly.

When Tang Ya heard the old man's praise, she felt flattered in her heart.

"Old man, are you planning to take action? My grandfather likes the blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty very much. If the price is right, I can buy it." Tang Ya expressed her thoughts.

There was a trace of hesitation on the old man's face, he glanced at Tang Ya, and then looked at Lin Xiao quietly.

"My family needs money, so I want to sell the antiques that I have collected for many years. I wonder how much you plan to pay?" the old man asked tentatively.

There was nothing wrong with the conversation between the old man and Tang Ya, but Lin Xiao seemed to feel that something was wrong when he watched from the side.

All of these things seem too coincidental.

Tang Ya said with a smile, "The old man is not a place to negotiate prices on the street now, let's open a box inside, sit down and have a cup of tea, and have a good talk."

There was a look of vigilance on the old man's face.

At this time, Lin Xiao said: "You don't have to worry, old man. Now is a society ruled by law, and it is impossible for us to steal your things."

"My friend just took a look at it just now, so I can't be sure whether your porcelain vase is real or not. You need to look at it carefully."

Tang Ya also added beside him: "That's right, old man, you see that there are people coming and going on this street, the two of us almost bumped into each other just now, and I'll touch your antiques by someone else, what should we do? "

The old man heard that both Lin Xiao and Tang Ya had already said this, and after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that this was the case.

These two people can't snatch his things in broad daylight.

And he always felt unsafe to take out his antiques on the street.

"Okay, then I'll go in with you now." The old man nodded and agreed.

Lin Xiao and Tang Ya had just finished eating at the Hunan restaurant, so it was meaningless to go back.

He saw a teahouse next to him, so he took Tang Ya and the old man into the teahouse, asked for a private room, and ordered a pot of tea.

The old man carefully sat on the chair, put his cloth bag on the table, and circled his hands.

Tang Ya poured the old man a cup of tea, and then said, "Grandpa, drink the tea first, can you open the package and let me take a closer look?"

The old man was not in the mood to drink tea, so he slowly opened the cloth bag after thinking about it.

There are three floors inside and three floors outside. In the middle there is a blue and white porcelain vase with a height of several centimeters.

Even Lin Xiao couldn't help admiring the blue and white porcelain vase showing its true face.

Although he doesn't know much about the antique industry, he still has a little appreciation for really good works of art.

This blue and white porcelain vase looks like something that opens the door, even a layman can feel a sense of elegance and grandeur.

Tang Ya looked at the blue and white porcelain vase, and couldn't help but love it in her eyes, and she began to look at it carefully.

After a few minutes, Tang Yacai slowly put down the porcelain bottle.

The old man hurriedly asked, "Little girl, what do you think of my bottle? How much price can you give?"

Tang Ya didn't answer directly, but turned to look at Lin Xiao.

Obviously after what happened to Xu Youlan just now, Tang Ya became cautious.

Lin Xiao didn't fully trust the old man, and reminded him, "You have to make up your mind carefully, and remember the lessons learned just now!"

Tang Ya heard the hint in Lin Xiao's words, nodded slightly, and then turned around.

"Grandpa, to be honest, this blue and white porcelain vase of yours looks really good, how much do you plan to sell it for?" Tang Ya asked.

Without any hesitation, the old man said directly, "I want to sell this blue and white porcelain vase for 1000 million!"

After hearing the old man's quotation, Lin Xiao shook his head slightly in his heart.

This old man doesn't look like an insider.

Before that, Lin Xiao learned a little knowledge about antiques from Zhou Tianlu.

When making a transaction, the person who makes the first price is often the one who suffers the most.

Because it is easy for the other party to figure out their own details.

It's just another matter to open a store and clearly mark the price.

Sure enough, Tang Ya shook her head slightly after listening to the old man's quotation.

"Grandpa, your asking price is too high!"
