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

Chapter 50 I want this!three hundred!

The domineering voice came from behind, the voice was loud and harsh, even in the noisy market.

Hearing this sound, the customers and stall owners who were selecting goods at nearby stalls all stopped.

The market, which was extremely noisy just now, suddenly became quiet.

Lin Ran also stopped taking out money and turned around to see who it was that dared to blatantly violate industry rules.

After all, this industry can be passed down for thousands of years because of the rules!

Looking back, I saw a bald man with a fat head and big ears, about thirty years old, with a sinewy face and a ferocious appearance.

This man was dressed fashionably, wearing a blue dragon-patterned coat, with a jade tied to a gold chain around his neck, and a dzi bead hanging on his chest.

There is an agar jade ring on the fat middle finger, and there is also a string of dzi beads hanging on the left hand.

The full mix and match style is really eye-catching.

Listening to the whispers of the people around him, Lin Ran also had a preliminary understanding of the man in front of him.

It is said that this person is also quite famous in the neighborhood. His name is Yang Jianlong. He is a native of the capital and one of the first wealthy young men in the capital.

My family belongs to the Paoge family, with both black and white and a wide network of contacts.

A few years ago, he married into a family of antiques. He didn't know anything about antiques, and he started a vigorous road to arty style.

Lin Ran could completely imagine that a few years ago, what he wore around his neck was definitely a big gold chain.

He looks like a typical rich man, both rich and rich!

Unexpectedly, when the vendor saw it was Yang Jianlong, he was overjoyed as if he were seeing a boy who was throwing away money!

He even bent down and said with a smile on his face, "Oh, isn't this Boss Yang? Long time no see!"

"Well, I recently went out to buy some things."

As he spoke, Yang Jianlong also deliberately showed off his accessories.

The stall owner smiled playfully and complimented: "Yes, what Brother Yang brought is really good!"

The man snorted "Yeah" coldly, and then stared at the Buddha statue with a disdainful expression with his small, bulging eyes.

"Bring it here and show it to me."

The man stretched out his hand and motioned to the vendor to hand him the bronze statue.

"If it's appropriate, I'll take the 300 yuan!"

While Yang Jianlong was speaking, he glanced at Lin Ran with some hostility, looking arrogant as if he had a lot of money.

The stall owner also immediately said flatteringly: "Boss Yang, this is..."

He suddenly remembered the identity of the man in front of him and did not dare to fool him. He could only answer obediently: "This is the Buddha statue I bought from Li Xiazi's family in Xiahekou. His family once worked as tailors in the homes of officials in the Qing Dynasty, so this Buddha statue Possibly a product of the palace.”

"Boss Yang, you are an expert, please show me what it is."

"Okay! Then let me help you take a look."

Yang Jianlong obviously enjoys the feeling of being called an expert and feels a little elated.

He even ignored Lin Ran, came to the stall, grabbed the bronze statue in his hand, and pretended to look at it.

"Wang Xiaosi, yours is a bronze Maitreya Buddha statue from the Qing Dynasty."

"The characteristics are very obvious. Look at this big belly, which represents an open mind."

"Looking at this face again, it looks festive and gives people a sense of intimacy."

"It's just that the material is a little different. It's made of bronze. It should be something hidden in the home of a low-ranking official."

"After all, the former imperial court had a strong Buddhist culture, and officials basically enshrined Buddha statues in their homes."

"Identified as true."

Listening to Yang Jianlong's seemingly "sophisticated" appraisal results, the vendors kept nodding and bowing in agreement.

But in my heart I was filled with contempt!

This guy likes to pretend to understand when he doesn’t understand!

But as long as you make him happy by licking him, he is definitely a fat sheep!

Lin Ran rolled his eyes after hearing this. What kind of treasure appraiser is he?

How is it different from the random reason that the vendor made up just now? He still made it up out of nowhere. You are pretending to make it up to the same level as others, but it is really too bad.

What's even more ironic is that after hearing this, some people around him nodded in confusion.

But Yang Jianlong then changed the subject: "It's just that this kind of low-end Buddha statue is really nothing unusual. It is not the work of a master, and it is not very old."

"In the late period, the production of Buddha statues has become an assembly line industry. The Buddha statues produced are powerful and exquisite in craftsmanship, but their postures are rigid, overly stylized, and their artistic level is low."

"The collection value is not high, but if I pay 300 yuan, it can be regarded as a request to go back and pray for the safety of mother and child."

"Wrap it up for me!"

300 yuan is ten times the price given by Lin Ran!

"Okay! Master, please put it away!" The stall owner was full of smiles, rubbing his hands and waiting to collect the money.

When Yang Jianlong was about to pay for the Buddha statue, Lin Ran waved his hand and stopped him with an expression that was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Wait a minute!" Lin Ran said to the stall owner: "It doesn't look like it's your first day doing business in the market. Don't you understand the rules on the road?"

There are several tacit unspoken rules for doing business in this industry.

For example, pick up the slack, be willing to admit defeat, and keep the door clear. These are the default trading rules of the market.

The most important thing is first-come-first-served. No matter whether it is a powerful person or a commoner, whoever can find the genuine product among the goods first will not be able to make quotations on the goods as long as he does not put down the goods.

Otherwise there will be chaos.

Everyone must abide by the rules of the world. This is also the foundation of the treasure appraisal industry!

This is true for both vendors and customers.

There are no exceptions!

Especially for traders, if they have already negotiated a price with the buyer and are ready to make a transaction.

But suddenly a rich man appeared and offered a high price to buy goods. As a result, the buyer was robbed by others during the purchase process.

Then this stall owner will never want to do business in the market again.

After all, no one would do business with a treacherous person, especially in the treasure appraisal industry.

When Lin Ran mentioned the business rules, the vendor blinked his eyes and said, "Nonsense, I haven't negotiated a deal with you yet."

"We have agreed on the price. I will buy your Buddha statue for 30 yuan."

Lin Ran deliberately spoke loudly so that everyone around could hear.

As a human being in two lifetimes, Lin Ran has a naturally sophisticated mind.

He knew very well that only by attracting greater attention could he keep the goods he got.

The stall owner held the Buddha statue in his hand and looked troubled.

He said with some embarrassment: "Brother, don't you think this has not been sold yet? This is what I picked up from picking up rags, how about you give it to Boss Yang?"

Just now I refused to admit that it was a collection of junk goods, but now I readily admit it.

He also provided the source address of the goods, which shows that this person is not very smart and is a fool.

But Lin Ran remembered that the canopy-covered gilt bronze Buddha statue was priceless.

Now that I am short of money, how can I give it to others?

What's more, it's still left to a short-sighted layman!

As a giant of the National Museum, any concession would be disrespectful to the historical accumulation of antiques!

He carefully observed Yang Jianlong's accessories, which looked elegant and luxurious, but Wenwan's temperament seemed incompatible with him.

At this glance, I can see the trickiness of the accessories.

He is indeed an arty person who pretends to understand!

It's a pity that in Yang Jianlong's eyes, it is a certainty that he will get this Buddha statue.

Anyway, this isn’t the first time I’ve done this!

In the past, when I returned home, I would be lectured by my father-in-law, but this time I came to pray for my wife’s safety, so no one could stop me!

He yawned and glanced at the jade Buddha in the next stall.

His pupils shrank, and a look of greed appeared on his face.

Before anyone could react, Yang Jianlong shouted again: "Wait a minute, I want that Jade Buddha too, 500!"
