Chapter 233 The fiber puller
Rebirth in the 1980s Chapter 233: The fiber-stretcher
There were not many things in the stall, just about a dozen items, including bowls, plates, cups, jewelry boxes, jade pendants and the like.
There's even a candlestick!
The candlestick looks like it was used before.
Chen Huaiqing reached out and picked up each piece and looked at it, but the others seemed meaningless.
On the contrary, this cup is a bit interesting, it should be a wine glass.
Chen Huaiqing doesn't understand antiques, but he understands one thing, human nature.
When I picked up the cup, the person next to me had an obviously abnormal reaction.
Interestingly, he has been lingering here for so long, and it turns out he has taken a liking to this cup.
In order to prevent the stall owner from seeing what they are interested in, these people will cover up their purpose.
To put it bluntly, it’s just a performance.
In the antique world, this price is not fixed.
Some people think this thing is worth a million, others think it's only a few thousand dollars.
The huge price difference depends on personal appreciation and preference.
If you meet someone who likes something that costs 1,000 yuan on the market, they might buy it for 10,000 yuan.
Money can't buy it, I'm happy!
No matter how much money you spend on something you like, you are not willing to spend it.
For example, when it comes to figurines, everyone’s attitudes are very different.
"This cup is quite interesting. Brother, how much do you plan to sell it for?"
The middle-aged man next to him looked unmoved. He glanced sideways at Chen Huaiqing and saw that he had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was handsome and handsome. He couldn't help but be curious. He had never seen such a figure in the antique circle in the capital.
Judging from his accent, it sounds a bit like Sichuan.
Shuchuan is so young again.
The middle-aged man turned slightly and looked at the man and woman waiting at the side. The woman didn't look like she was from the mainland.
The stall owner raised a finger and didn't say the specific price.
One thousand, ten thousand or one million!
Are transactions in this market accomplished by playing riddles like this?
Chen Huaiqing held the cup and hesitated for a moment. There was a rooster crowing on the cup, and a hen with three chicks pecking at it.
What immediately came to mind was the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup.
The wine cup used by Zhu Jianshen, the Chenghua Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was called the imperial wine cup according to some culture and respect.
However, there are many imitations of this kind of thing.
Moreover, this thing seems to be well preserved, which is a bit confusing.
Chen Huaiqing looked at the person beside him: "Brother, do you think this thing is worth ten thousand?"
In this era when people with ten thousand yuan are still rare people, it is really shocking to people to say ten thousand yuan.
Luo Yongyuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this person would actually ask him.
"Ten thousand is too high, I'll give you a thousand yuan at most."
Chen Huaiqing turned the small bowl casually and said with a smile: "Brother, will you sell it for one thousand?"
For Chen Huaiqing, there is really no need to speak here for a thousand or two thousand people.
Previously, Chen Huaiqing suddenly thought of a question.
If you want to buy some antiques or something, you don't have to do it yourself.
Instead, you can go directly to those cultural relic experts.
Those who have studied various cultural relics all their lives cannot say that they are 100% accurate when it comes to antiques, but they can still be 90% sure.
"Sell!"
Chen Huaiqing smiled and said: "You hesitated for a moment. This makes me feel like I have been cheated. Secretary Tao, please give me the money."
Tao Caiqing: "Can US dollars be used?"
There were no hundred-dollar bills at this time, and the largest denomination was only 10 yuan.
What was Tao Caiqing doing with so much ten dollars in his bag?
The stall owner obviously hesitated. In his understanding, money is rb, what is a dollar?
Luo Yongyuan smiled: "I have rb here, I will trade with you."
In his hand, he took out a wad of money from his bag.
Tao Caiqing gave Luo Yongyuan three hundred dollars, which was calculated directly according to the official exchange rate.
If Luo Yongyuan trades on the black market, he can earn at least thousands of dollars.
After buying it, Chen Huaiqing didn't feel too excited. He didn't play with it and handed it to Tao Caiqing: "I'll give it to you. Maybe in ten or twenty years, it will be worth millions."
Tao Caiqing took a look at it and gave it back millions. She didn't believe it anyway: "Boss, if it's not worth it, why don't you post it?"
Chen Huaiqing: "It's quite a beautiful thought."
Chen Huaiqing looked at Luo Yongyuan and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, brother, I'm just taking advantage of others today."
Luo Yongyuan didn't care about this. In this market, picking up leaks has always been a matter of skill.
If I didn't take the item in my hands and someone else bought it first, I can't blame others.
"Sir, you are joking. You only rely on your own skills when playing antiques. If you buy it first, it will be yours."
Chen Huaiqing stretched out his hand: "Let me meet you. My name is Chen Huaiqing. I do some small business."
Just doing some small business, Luo Yongyuan naturally didn't believe it. Now he took a look and saw that there was a large stack of US dollars in this woman's bag.
Moreover, the Mandarin spoken by this woman was exactly the same as that of a person from Xiangjiang whom Luo Yongyuan contacted before.
With a Sichuan accent and a secretary from Xiangjiang, this combination really made Luo Yongyuan a little confused.
However, Luo Yongyuan naturally wouldn't say much, and it seemed that he didn't need to comment on what he did specifically.
"My name is Luo Yongyuan. I am engaged in the antique business. I usually do things like buy low and buy high to make a living."
Chen Huaiqing smiled and said: "I see, I'm in the capital and want to buy some antiques. Are brothers Luo interested in doing stretch work?"
Drawing is a special word in the antique world, which means acting as an intermediary.
Since it is an intermediary, there will naturally be intermediary fees, and the commission is between seller 3 and buyer 2.
Chen Huaiqing wanted to buy antiques, but supply was a big problem.
Good things are never presented directly.
In this antique market, although there are many kinds of things on the stalls, 99% of them are handicrafts.
It's not that easy to find faults in this market.
You want to pick up leaks, but people who walk in the market every day also want to pick up leaks.
Therefore, Chen Huaiqing must find an intermediary to find good things for himself.
As for whether the found items were genuine or not, Chen Huaiqing would have to find someone to identify them.
Chen Huaiqing will specially find experts to handle this matter.
Chen Huaiqing doesn't have to worry about finding experts. Many of these cultural relic experts are public officials.
Since you are a public official, you must obey the delegation of the organization.
And Chen Huaiqing is not worried that they are not careful.
First of all, Chen Huaiqing will give adequate treatment and will definitely not treat him badly.
Another thing is that this matter is not done for Chen Huaiqing alone, but for the pension fund company.
Chen Huaishi has now also discovered that for people with relatively high cultural quality, the temptation of money is there. After all, people have to eat, drink, have sex, and support their wives and children. Without money, it is absolutely impossible.
However, money alone is not reliable.
You still have to have ideals!
We need to make them feel that what they do is a career and a meaningful career.
