Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

"Brother is indeed an expert!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling a bit like close friends.

After some conversation, the origin of the lattice door was finally explained.What Lin Ran said was well-founded, but Fang Dahai was also an old antique dealer, and he also had the ability to analyze and judge.

Now that the origin of the object is clear, the next step is to negotiate the price. Both of them know it well. Lin Ran definitely did not bring the lattice door to discuss with Fang Dahai, but was prepared to take action.

"It's such a good thing! I just don't know how much money Brother Xiaolin is prepared to pay for it!"

Fang Dahai still wanted to test Lin Ran's psychological price. After all, he was an old man, and Fang Dahai knew all about the business.

"I've been doing business for so long. Do you want me to give you a price?"

It's not that Lin Ran doesn't have his own ideas, nor does he want to test Fang Dahai's psychological evaluation, but he wants to see what kind of person Fang Dahai is. Since the origin of this thing has been made clear, then it depends on how Fang Dahai bids. .

The two of them walked back to the tea table from the grid door to drink tea. After all, neither of them were newbies in the industry, so there was no need to double-check what they were already sure of.

"Bring out some more good tea!"

Fang Dahai shouted to the waiter, and the waiter brought some more tea.

Get tea, washing utensils, tea...

Fang Dahai was making tea slowly, while Lin Ran was sitting aside and was unhurried.

This is what this industry is like. Most of the time, we just drink tea and shake our fans while chatting like this. Even if we say something good or not, we will always have some extravagant words, and we won’t lose any sense of proportion.

After all, in the early days, most things like antiques were controlled by literati and dignitaries. When doing business with these people, it was not just a matter of money and goods valuation, but more scenes were inevitable.

"Brother Xiaolin has so many good things. Where did they come from, or are they handed down from ancestors?"

Fang Dahai still had many questions about Lin Ran. He asked Lin Ran where he got the things. He was both curious about Lin Ran and wanted to estimate the value of the things.

The provenance of this item does not have a 01:30 impact on the price. If it is passed down from ancestors, generally such people have been in the antique shop for a short time and are easy to fool, so the price will be lower.

If it was obtained through tomb robbing or other abnormal means, the price will be lower, because once this kind of thing is seen, it is difficult to sell it.

"Brother also saw that I came here on a three-wheeler. I am just a businessman. I have only been in the business for a short time. I hope that I will give you more support in the future."

In the antique shop, there are professional names for many professions and the origins of objects. Lin Ran said that he was a land collector, which meant that he received the goods in the countryside and then bought them.

This is to tell Fang Dahai that his things come from a clean source and can be collected with confidence. Secondly, it is to show that he is also a businessman and the price cannot be set too low.

"Brother Xiaolin is joking. This small shop of mine hopes that capable people like you will send more good items. Do you think this number is appropriate for this door?"

As he spoke, Fang Dahai raised three fingers to show his bid.

Lin Ran and Fang Dahai knew the value of this door, so the three was not three yuan or thirty, but three hundred yuan.

You must know that at that time, the monthly salary of urban workers was only 40 yuan, which was equivalent to more than half a year's salary. This asking price was not low.

But the price was still far from Lin Ran's heart. Lin Ran thought it would cost at least four to five hundred to sell this lattice door.

But things in the business world do not mean that you can close the deal as much as you want, but require negotiation between both parties, so how to make Fang Dahai accept the price depends on negotiation skills. Of course, Lin Ran still knows more about antiques.

"The price I offered is fair, but this item is really rare, so the price may have to go up a bit."

Fang Dahai was not alarmed. After all, Lin Ran was not a rookie. He had already expected that Lin Ran would raise the price.

"So how much does Brother Xiaolin think is appropriate?"

Lin Ran took a sip of tea, then put down the cup and pretended to look at the lattice door.

"In this way, it seems that I am also a happy person. For five hundred, this master Kong Mou's work belongs to me."

There was going on in the business world, and Lin Ran was waiting for Fang Dahai to speak.

"Brother Xiaolin, I won't talk in circles. This is the rule in the business world. Each person takes a step back. For four hundred, this deal is settled!"

In fact, Fang Dahai didn't bully Lin Ran at all. In that era when antiques had not been hyped to sky-high prices, such a lattice door had a lot of damage. If it weren't for the fact that it was made by everyone, it would not be worth the price. .

"Okay, let's just make friends with my brother!"

After some polite words, the deal was settled.

400 yuan was not low considering the market conditions at that time, and the family was currently waiting for money to save their lives.

After counting, the money and goods are cleared.

Fang Dahai personally sent Lin Ran out of the door, which could be said to have given him enough face and attention.

After exchanging a few words, Lin Ran suppressed the excitement in his heart, took the money and happily rode away on a tricycle.

This is also the reason why so many people are obsessed with antiques. Lin Ran easily earned a year's salary of others in just one day.

To say that it is easy is actually not easy. When it comes to vision, luck, and knowledge, there is a lot of stress involved.

After Lin Ran left, Fang Dahai took a closer look at the lattice door. After confirming that it was the work of Master Kong Mou in the Ming Dynasty, he thought about Lin Ran carefully.

You must know that the antique shop relies on experience, whether it is experience with objects or people. That is why most antique dealers have the words of old gentlemen who are more authoritative, but few people are willing to listen to the words of young people.

However, Lin Ran looked young. To an ordinary person, he would have the qualifications of an apprentice, but his eyesight and experience were superior to his own.

Thinking of Fang Dahai, he couldn't help but wonder whether Lin Ran would have an expert to give him guidance in the future. Otherwise, how could Lin Ran have so many good things and know so much at such a young age.

Fang Dahai couldn't think of a second reason except that he came from a wealthy family or had an expert's guidance behind him!

If there is really advice from an expert, then the reason for coming to Shaofouzhai twice is to give yourself something?

Thinking of this, Fang Dahai couldn't help but be shocked.

In terms of money, Fang Dahai accepted that these items were at market prices, and even if they were a little higher, they were still worth the money.In terms of fame, I am not at the point where I want any big shot to test me.

Fang Dahai suddenly remembered that the things Lin Ran brought twice were very different. The first time was porcelain, and this time it was wood.The first time was the Song Dynasty, and this time it was the Ming Dynasty.The first time it was an official kiln, but this time it was made by a famous artist.

Could it be that this expert specially sent Lin Ran to test him?

Lin Ran said that there may be more cooperation in the future, indicating that there may be tests in the future, and it may be a big gap from this time. Thinking of Fang Dahai, he couldn't help but put down his teacup and go to look up the information.

In an industry that relies on qualifications like antique shops, if you are really chosen by that big boss, you will be lucky.

All in all, Brother Xiaolin, who is so clueless, must not neglect him!

This must be a noble person!
