Siheyuan: Don't call me a fool

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Old man, it's not that I don't know that this is your grandson. If I had known that he belonged to you, how could I ask for his things! In this way, I will send the things to your house intact later. Come on, I will apologize to you, what do you think?"

Mr. Guan originally wanted to avenge his apprentice Han Chunming and get back his position, but he didn't expect He Yuzhu to be so polite as soon as he came up, which made him feel embarrassed.

Hastily shook his head and said: "This is impossible. He was missed by you. It is because he has not learned his own skills and can only blame himself. How can you send the things back? That is not beating him. face? No need."

Master Niu also said at the same time: "Mr. Guan is right. What we pay attention to in this business is face-to-face transactions, not counting back accounts. How can someone else make up for it?"

Speaking of it, Han Chunming's face was ashen, and he said happily: "I will definitely not want to get back what you bought back, but I will not let you pick up on me again in the future."

After saying this, several people laughed.

At this time, someone came out from the middle courtyard and said: "Masters, Mr. Bei Zi said that the things are ready, please go in and look at the things."

Chapter 241 Enamel Bottle

As soon as I entered the middle courtyard, I saw an old man with whiter hair than Mr. Guan standing at the door of the main room on the north side. He looked about six or seventy years old. What was ridiculous was that his few gray hairs were still combed back. There is a thin braid at the back of the head.

He Yuzhu was a little surprised. You must know that in this day and age, this old man still wears a pigtail. Isn't he afraid of being caught?

He glanced at Master Niu, and Master Niu seemed to understand what he was thinking immediately, so he said in a low voice, "Master Bei Zi hasn't been out of the house for many years."

No wonder this is the case. These Manchu survivors, old and young, have been reluctant to accept the reality of the fall of the Qing Dynasty for a long time. They still live in their own dreams and refuse to contact the outside world. It is estimated that they don’t even know who Jiang Guangtou is, let alone now. .

This so-called Master Bei shut himself up in this yard, and did not have contact with the outside world, let alone work. He must be eating and waiting to die every day. Naturally, his source of income was to sell these old things he brought out from the palace.

But it is conceivable that a person who has no contact with the outside world can know the original value of these things.

These people called Master Bei Zi, but they actually didn't know how much the partnership had cheated him.

He Yuzhu remembered a TV series "Scent of Sophora Flowers in May", in which there was a second young lady from Ruifu who had been widowed for half her life, and finally escaped from Ruifu with a lot of good things in her house, thinking of letting her nephew My son helped sell some things to make ends meet.

But in the end?Those priceless treasures were tricked by her nephew into saying they were worthless broken pots, and almost all her things were emptied, and finally sold by her nephew.

But now it seems that this Bei Zi is far less miserable than that Rui Second Mistress, maybe because of the new society, at least now it seems that this Bei Zi can live until now.

When He Yuzhu was thinking wildly here, he saw that Mr. Pei cupped his hands towards the visitor as a salute.

And the people who came in from outside also saluted him respectfully, and shouted in unison: "Master Beizi is auspicious."

Just like the rules in the palace.

Master Bei Zi smiled, but didn't speak.

A man who looked like a housekeeper stood up next to him and said, "Everyone, you are blessed today. Mr. Bei is in a good mood today and wants to sell some treasures. There are not many things, only five or six, but they are all from back then. The good thing the emperor gave the prince last time. Everyone is optimistic about the bid, and the one with the highest bid will take the thing. It’s the same sentence, don’t make trouble if you don’t want it.”

As they stretched out their hands, several servants first brought out a large bottle and put it on a table.

The people who came here immediately surrounded him with a huff, but when they got to the table, they all consciously kept a distance of one meter.

No one touched the bottle rashly, everyone knew that porcelain was the most delicate, and if it was touched a little, it would be ruined.This is the treasure bestowed by the imperial court, and the specified value is not low.

He Yuzhu and Master Niu moved a little slower and could only stand behind the crowd.

And Han Chunming obviously often came here with Mr. Guan, so he was very clever. As soon as he saw the butler stretching out his hand, he immediately helped Mr. Guan go forward, and easily occupied a favorable position. He stood in the front row and could Take a closer look at the bottle.

He Yuzhu couldn't get to him, so he just watched from outside.

With just one glance, he knew that this thing was definitely real, just like what the butler said, the thing that came out of the authentic palace was an enamel bottle from the Qianlong period, and if it was put in later generations, it would definitely cost tens of millions.

After He Yuzhu glanced at it, he stared at Mr. Guan, wanting to see his reaction.

He noticed that Mr. Guan leaned in front of the bottle and looked up, down, left, right, and right for a while. His eyes were really bright at that moment, which was quite different from the image of the old man with dull eyes just now.

It seems that this old man also has something in his stomach, and he can see that this is a good thing.

But after watching for a while, old man Guan immediately hid his gaze, stood up straight again, and said to Han Chunming, "Chunming, let's sit back."

Han Chunming was taken aback: "Old man, what's the matter? Isn't this a good thing?"

Everyone around him also looked at him.

The old man Guan sighed: "As for the stuff, it's really a good thing, but we can't afford this good thing."

With that said, he turned around and slowly returned to the chair and sat down again.

This time, everyone in the yard was confused.

Everyone is in this line of business, so everyone knows what Mr. Guan is capable of, and he has never been mistaken.

If he said good things, it was designated to be good things.

But if it's a good thing, shouldn't it be upwards?

Why does this reaction seem to think that this thing is nothing special?

Is this true or false?

Big guys, you look at me and I look at you. They were almost confirmed at first, but because of Old Man Guan's actions, they all became a little hesitant.

He Yuzhu is also a little strange, what does this old man mean?

I have seen this thing myself, it is definitely an authentic Qianlong enamel bottle, it is definitely something from the imperial palace, and its value is definitely not low, and it will definitely take a lot of effort to buy it.

Is it...

A bold idea suddenly popped up in He Yuzhu's mind, could it be that the old man deliberately made a confused formation?

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, Master Niu who was beside him asked in a low voice: "How is it? Brother, is this thing sure?"

He Yuzhu nodded and said in a low voice, "It's a good thing."

Master Niu nodded and said: "I also think it should be a good thing. I wanted to spend some money to buy it, but what the old man did made me confused. , the loss is not a little money."

He Yuzhu said: "Master Niu, anyway, I think it's a good thing. If you don't want it, I'll take it. Anyway, this is the first one. Maybe it's just a guide, and there will be better ones later."

Master Niu nodded: "That's right, brother, you're right, this is just the beginning, so I'll see what's next."

The people in the yard chattered and whispered for a long time, but no one bid, while Mr. Guan sat there with his eyes drooping and smoking a cigarette, without even looking this way.

The person in charge is a little impatient. When buying things, he is most afraid of being left alone. If the first item cannot be sold, the subsequent items will not be easy to sell.

Master Bei is short of money recently, and he is still waiting to sell things today to spend money.

At this moment, He Yuzhu spoke. He looked around, and then said slowly: "I don't think the big guys are saying anything, why don't I make an offer first, and make a point?"

Chapter 242 500 Yuan Win

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, turned around and found that it was the young man brought by Master Niu who opened the mouth.

Everyone, look at me and I look at you, without saying a word, thinking that this kid is really bold, he wants to offer a price for something that even Mr. Guan dare not do it?

That's okay, let's see what price this kid can offer.

So, everyone stopped talking and looked at He Yuzhu.

And Bei Zi, who sat aside for a long time without saying a word, raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.

Some expectations.

After all, there are so many idlers in Beizi's mansion, and the daily expenses are so big, they all need money.

The butler also said in surprise, "Sir, tell me."

He Yuzhu glanced at Mr. Guan first, and saw that the old man didn't even look this way, as if he had nothing to do with him.

"500 yuan." He Yuzhu stretched out a hand and said.

"500 yuan?!"

Everyone hissed and gasped.

Is this guy an ignorant mallet, or a ruthless hacker?

If you decide that this thing is a counterfeit and an ordinary thing, then your price is a bit too high.

On Wenwan Street in Liulichang, such similar bottles cost dozens of yuan, and more than 100 yuan is the most expensive.

But if this is the real thing, something that really came out of the palace, then if you pay this price, you want to eat someone else's house.

Because, 500 yuan, this is an unbearable choking price.

Because 500 yuan can cover the wages of ordinary people and workers for several years, but in the hands of those who play with these antiques, it is not worth mentioning.

Not to mention that in the eyes of Master Beizi, who has a big family and a great career, it is simply not money!

Therefore, as soon as the price was announced, contempt appeared on everyone's faces.

Xin said, this guy is really a mallet, he doesn't understand the market in this industry at all!

And the face of Bei Zi, who was full of anticipation, suddenly darkened, with a look of anger.

If it weren't for the distressed thing, it would have picked it up and thrown it on He Yuzhu's face.

The butler's face twitched even more, and he forced a smile: "Sir, you are joking. The things that came out of Beizi's house were given by the emperor to the prince. Isn't 500 yuan a joke?"

The people next to him also let out a burst of laughter.

Han Chunming stuck in front of Mr. Guan and touched him, meaning to ask him if we should make a move. Mr. Guan didn't even raise his head, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk!"

Han Chunming didn't dare to speak anymore.

Amidst the laughter, Master Niu hurriedly tugged on He Yuzhu's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Brother, you don't understand the market, this price is not good, it makes people laugh."

As if he didn't hear it, He Yuzhu smiled and said to the butler: "Really? If you think I'm joking, just pretend I didn't say it. It just so happens that I also want to hear if anyone else has paid a higher price than me. "

The housekeeper looked around: "Everyone, is there any bid?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one said anything.

Everyone thought He Yuzhu's price was ridiculous, but no one had a certain idea in mind.

Because of Mr. Guan's previous actions, all of them felt a little confused.

It was easy to bid. Anyone of these people could beat He Yuzhu's 500 yuan at any price.

But the problem is, no one wants to lose face in front of everyone.

Mr. Guan's expression seemed to say that this thing is a fake. If you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a fake in front of so many people, will you still be laughed at tomorrow?

Therefore, everyone wants to calm down and see what others mean.

Besides, didn't the butler say that?Master Beizi is going to release several good things today, even if you miss this one, it’s okay, there are more to follow.

And Mr. Guan didn't say anything, he had other ideas.

He knew that many of these people were looking at his attitude, as long as he opened his mouth, they must be crazy to grab things.

As a result, the price of this enamel bottle today cannot be less than several thousand yuan.

After that, the prices of the next few things will be indispensable.

You must know that selling things depends on how well the first item sells. If the first item is high, the subsequent ones will follow suit.

And if the first one is in your hands, then the latter won't cost much.

So, he had to hold his breath.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and for a while, the scene turned cold.

At this moment, sweat broke out on the butler's head.

Involuntarily turned to look at Master Bei.

Master Bei's face is very ugly, when has he ever encountered such a situation!

In the past, when I sold things myself, as soon as I took them out, everyone would loot them, and the prices were higher and higher.

But today, no one bid!

The only brat, but he paid a price of 500 yuan to humiliate his ancestors!

Master Bei really wanted to jump out and shout: "I won't sell it anymore!"

But he can't.

After selling it for so many years, he still understands this rule, once it is taken out, it cannot be taken back.

Unless no one is interested and no one bids, otherwise, you have to sell it with tears in your eyes no matter how low the price is.

Otherwise, don't expect everyone to come and praise you in the future.

However, the 500 yuan is not enough to pay the salaries of these people in the hospital.And this is an imperial gift from the emperor to Ama!
