Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 534 Calling him "Old Fool" Behind His Back

Without continuing to listen to their discussion, nor going to the "iron counter and box stalls" under the shed, Wu Yuansheng walked towards the large venue.

The place where he was just now was just a passage about 10 meters long and 5 meters wide after entering the gate of the antique city.

The venue is large, with an area of ​​about 1500 square meters. Except for some parking spaces near the inside where vehicles are parked, almost 60% of the area is filled with stalls.

Not far inside, in front of a stall selling fake goods, he saw a man who had a lot of money and liked to buy "fake high-end items."

This man is about 60 years old. He doesn’t know his name. He just hears people call him Lao Qin and call him "old idiot" behind his back.

In his previous life, when he was strolling around the antique city or setting up stalls here, Wu Yuansheng often saw him buying things, and he would spend seven or eight thousand yuan at a time, or as little as two or three thousand yuan.

Except for rainy and snowy weather, he basically comes every weekend.

At this time, Lao Qin should have just been in this business for a short time, because he had never seen him in the antique city before.

Now he is holding a "synthetic material incense burner" that imitates antique jade in his hand, and studying the incense burner with a high-power magnifying glass he carries with him.

If you look at it from the perspective of a frontline treasure hunter or someone who runs an antique shop, all of these high-end jade wares sold on the street are handicrafts.

There is no way there are any really good things in such street stalls. Even if there are good things, people would not just throw them on the ground and sell them like ordinary objects.

(This is an "axiom" understood by all insiders.

Anyone who has an item that is truly worth more than $10,000 will keep it very well, for fear that someone might accidentally damage it.

No one would just throw garbage on the stall.)

Lao Qin used a magnifying glass to change the angle and kept looking at the "Jade Incense Burner".

But no matter how much he studied, none of this could be true.

Wu Yuansheng found it ridiculous that he was studying a fake product and seemed to be very serious about it.

In his previous life, he heard from several colleagues who opened shops that some people advised him not to research or buy things at stalls selling fakes, and also recommended authentic products to him.

But he always bit back, saying that what others recommended were fake and rubbish.

After that, no one who really knew the business paid any attention to him anymore.

This kind of person is the kind who has studied fakes so much that he says everything he sees is fake.

To put it bluntly - you deserve to be cheated!

Wu Yuansheng heard from some people who knew him a little that he bought a house full of things, but none of them were real.

This is the tragedy! The tragedy of self-righteousness!

Privately, people call him an "old fool", and there's nothing wrong with that.

Wu Yuansheng had personally seen him buy a lot of things from people who sold fake goods, but he would not buy things from people who sold genuine goods.

These days, some things are hard to say. He has money, so maybe it's destined for him to reveal some of his wealth.

"How much is this jade incense burner?"

While watching, Lao Qin pointed at the incense burner in his hand that he had been studying for a while and asked the stall owner.

"Master, you have a good eye! This is a Hetian jade incense burner from the Han Dynasty. If you really want it, you can give me a lucky number of 18800 yuan."

The stall owner was a man in his fifties. After hearing his question, he smiled and said.

"It's too expensive! I'll give you 8000 yuan, can you see if you can sell it?"

Lao Qin bargained.

"8000 is a bit too little, please give me a round number of 10000!"

The stall owner was very good at observing people's expressions and thought that he was attracted by the incense burner.

"Not long ago, I went to someone's house and bought a Han Dynasty imperial seal for only 9000 yuan. I'll give you another price. I'll give you yuan. See if you can sell it. If not, I won't take it."

After hearing this, the stall owner, who was about 50 years old, deliberately thought for a few seconds, looked reluctant, and agreed reluctantly.

Lao Qin scanned the payment code on the stall and transferred the money to him.

He asked the stall owner to wrap it in newspaper and put it away, then he left with the "Jade Incense Burner".

Seeing him walk away, a smile appeared on the stall owner's face.

Even if I go back and find out it's a fake and come to him, he will no longer admit that the item is his.

Buying and selling are voluntary. People who sell fake goods just hope that more wealthy idiots will come so that they can do better business.

Wu Yuansheng himself would certainly not follow him to remind him that people who have money are willing to make some contributions to those who sell counterfeit goods and support other people's lives. That is their freedom.

After hearing Lao Qin say that he spent 2 to buy the imperial seal of the Han Dynasty, he just wanted to laugh.

Things of that level cannot be bought even with 2, 2000 million, or 2 million, let alone million.

There are several stalls connected here selling "handicrafts", in addition to jade, there are also porcelain, coins, antique bronzes, etc.

Without stopping at these stalls, he continued walking forward.

He stopped in front of a stall selling second-hand goods from demolished areas. There were several people gathered in front of the stall, picking out some more practical items.

The stall displays clothes, second-hand bags, suitcases, fishing gear, collectibles, vases, flower pots, old cameras, tapes, discs, etc.

There are also some folk items and a large box of unopened tea.

Among the used clothes on the stall, there are two pieces that look quite high-end.

One is a men's fur coat and the other is a mink coat for women.

Wu Yuansheng picked up the men's leather coat and tried it on. It weighed about 20 kilograms.

This made him feel quite strange, as if it was something that pilots wore, and he had encountered it before.

He asked the woman selling the clothes, and it was similar to what he thought, that they were indeed worn by pilots of a certain era.

The clothes are of good quality and well preserved.

The price is not cheap, it costs 1500 yuan.

Needless to say, such clothes are definitely very warm to wear.

The mink coat is also not cheap, costing 1200.

He just looked at the two pieces of clothing and didn't plan to buy them as he had a lot of clothes at home.

In addition to clothes, there are also some brands that look better among second-hand bags.

While he was watching, there were others watching as well.

Not long after, a person with an accent from another place came over. He sounded like he was from the provincial capital and asked the female boss about the prices of the two better pieces of clothing.

I paid back 300 yuan, and the two pieces of clothing together cost 2400 yuan, and he bought them.

The man is almost 70 years old. He said he is a tailor and knows a lot about clothes. He can make new ones by simply processing the clothes he buys.

After buying clothes, he chose three bags.

Those tea leaves have not expired yet. They are cheap for people who like to drink tea, and since the New Year is approaching, some people will buy them.

However, in the past two years, except for the older generation who are still drinking traditional tea, young people no longer drink tea water. They prefer to go to milk tea shops to buy milk tea.

Business in shops selling tea is not as good as before.

At this stall, Wu Yuansheng saw a very nice telescope made of metal from a special era and bought it.

"Welcome to Brother Hui's live broadcast room. Please be careful, tap the screen and click like.

Follow us, we will love you forever! Follow us, we will be happy forever!

The stall in front is my stall. I buy and sell antiques. I just started broadcasting. I will show my collections one by one in a while. If you like any of them, you can send me a private message. The price is negotiable!

In addition, capable big brothers can send some gifts, and I will help you to call for attention... "

After buying a telescope, when I went to visit other stalls, a foreigner who looked to be around 30 years old and often set up a stall in the antique city and sold miscellaneous items started a live broadcast not far away.

Seeing him like this, many people around him looked at him.

Nowadays, live broadcasting is not a rare thing. Live broadcasting may be everywhere. Some people are on the overpass, some are in the square, some are under the bridge, some are in the park, some are in some tourist attractions, some are fishing, and some are going to the beach...

"Oh my! Thank you to my brother Long for the Porsche! I didn't expect it! I didn't expect someone would give me such a big gift right after the show started!

Brother Long, let me sing a song for you - "Blessings to Brother Long".

I wish you, brother, never have to worry about food and clothing, live in a high-rise building instead of a square meter, be free and easy every day and gentle every night, have business as abundant as the Yangtze River, live like the flowers in the well, make big and small fortunes every day, and be prosperous.

I wish you, big brother, to sail at a rapid pace, to be a high official with clean hands, to create a great career with three or five leaps, to make fortunes all year round, to make friends from all corners of the world, to make a lot of money with good luck, to have good fortune with seven stars, to have treasures piled up from all directions, to have nine sons pass the imperial examinations and pass on to your descendants, and to be perfect in the world."

Not long after, Brother Hui's voice was heard again, with a hint of surprise.

"What, the best thing I have here? Fine, I'll take out the best for everyone to see!"

After he finished speaking, he felt around in the box he brought, and soon a small wooden box was taken out.

Open the wooden box and you will find a cylindrical jade object about 5 cm long and 3 cm in diameter.

(Just now, the guy in the live broadcast room probably asked him what his best collection was.)

"This is a Hetian white jade pendant with the inscription 'Buddha in the Heart'. It is divided into two parts. The outer part is cylindrical and engraved with lotus flowers, and the inner part is engraved with the Buddha of Infinite Life. I'll open it for you to see."

After Brother Hui finished speaking, he pulled the rope under the cylinder, and a small Buddha statue appeared, which looked very delicate.

The Buddha statue sits cross-legged on a lotus pedestal, with his hands clasped on his abdomen, his demeanor calm and his face peaceful.

"How much? I paid a lot for this. It's from the Qing Dynasty. If I sell it, it will cost at least 30 yuan."

He continued to talk with the people in the live broadcast room on his mobile phone.

After hearing the price of 30 yuan, many people who wanted to go and see the product and inquire about the "Buddha in Heart" pendant gave up. Some people even privately said that he was crazy for money. With that money, couldn't people just buy a house?

In some towns, this amount of money is enough to buy two houses. Everyone will do the math to decide whether to choose a house or this jade.

Of course, anyone who says he is crazy about money is definitely not someone who likes collecting. After all, many people who visit the antique market are just there to watch the excitement.

They don't buy expensive things. If they do buy something, they will buy something that is cheap and practical.

At a price of 30, it is estimated that no one in the live broadcast room would buy it. No one would be stupid enough to spend a high price to buy an item just by watching a video.
