    After coming out of Zheng Anzhi¡¯s house, Meng Zitao arranged things, told his family, and drove to Jinling.

    As he happened to be on the road, Meng Zitao drove off the highway and went directly to Yue Shouzheng's home. However, unfortunately, Yue Shouzheng was not at home. He went to attend a seminar out of town and would not come back until tomorrow.

    After leaving the message, Meng Zitao went out. Seeing that it was not time to get off work, he contacted Song Xiuping.

    Meng Zitao had communicated with Song Xiuping before. Song Xiuping was willing to put his collection on display after Meng Zitao's museum opened. Now that the construction of the museum is nearing completion, it is time to discuss it again.

    Song Xiuping was in the antique city's shop. Meng Zitao went directly there. When he arrived at Song Xiuping's shop, he saw that he was a little depressed.

    Meng Zitao said hello and asked him what was wrong.

    Song Xiuping shook his head and said with emotion and anger: "People nowadays are becoming more and more careless in doing business. They can make money in any way."

    Afterwards, Song Xiuping told the reason.

    Some time ago, one of his friends wanted a Qing Dynasty beads box to store his collection of beads.

    The Chaozhu box is a special device used by senior officials in the Qing Dynasty to store Chaozhu.  According to historical records, only emperors, clans, princes, princes with different surnames, fifth-grade civil servants, and fourth-grade military officers and above can wear court beads. The court beads box in which the court beads are stored is a special item for these dignitaries.

    Because it was used by officials, it is very rare to have it handed down. Song Xiuping didn¡¯t have any in his hands, so he told his friend that if he encountered it in the future, he would keep it for him.

    Yesterday, Song Xiuping passed by a newly opened antique shop and saw a pastel flower bead box. He turned it over and over and came to the preliminary conclusion that it should be an object from the late Qing Dynasty that was imitated from the early Qing Dynasty, but the imitation  Very good, very level.

    Seeing that Song Xiuping was very interested in the Chaozhu box but undecided, the store owner took the initiative to say that this item was an authentic item from the early Qing Dynasty. It was in good shape and complete, but it was hard to find it now.

    Song Xiuping insisted on his own opinion and felt that the things should be from the late Qing Dynasty, so he was a little hesitant.

    Seeing that Song Xiuping was still hesitant, the store owner told Song Xiuping that as long as there was a problem within half a month, he could return it, even if Song Xiuping felt that the purchase was too expensive.

    Song Xiuping saw that the store owner had reached this point and thought he was a good person, so it was okay to buy this chaozhu box.

    So, the two bargained for a while, and Song Xiuping spent 15,000 to buy the Chaozhu box and informed his friends.

    My friend was very happy to see the Chaozhu box and took it back without looking at it carefully. But just now he came over and said that there was something wrong with the Chaozhu box.

    After Song Xiuping saw it, he realized that he had indeed caught his eye. This Chaotian bead was not an imitation of the early Qing Dynasty in the late Qing Dynasty, but was imitated during the Republic of China. The value was of course discounted.

    Since it was a counterfeit made during the Republic of China, he couldn¡¯t take it. In addition, the store had said that it could be returned within half a month, so he went there just now.

    Unexpectedly, the store owner changed his tone and said that he sold the items on behalf of a friend and that the money had already been given to the friend and that he would have to discuss the return with the friend.

    Song Xiuping is also a veteran. When he heard the store's words, he knew that what he said before was made up by the store. In short, he didn't want to return the product.

    In order to return the goods, Song Xiuping was willing to suffer some losses and agreed to give the store one thousand, which was regarded as an eye-catching fee. Unexpectedly, the store was so evil that he actually asked for half of it. After that, they couldn't reach an agreement. He got angry and came back with the things.

    While Song Xiuping was telling the story, Meng Zitao saw the court bead box, which was indeed a replica made during the Republic of China period. The workmanship was very good and could be mistaken for the real thing.

    Meng Zitao shook his head: "These people just like to do one-time deals and play tricks. Little do they know that this will cut off their own financial path."

    Song Xiuping said: "Yes, the ancients said, stay away from villains and stay close to gentlemen. Such people should indeed stay away, but I always feel a little uncomfortable."

    Meng Zitao said: "Actually, if you want to get money, it's very simple. Just call a few strong friends and go shopping there. I'll see if they dare not to withdraw."

    In fact, Meng Zitao also wanted to say that this matter could be spread out so that everyone would know what the store owner had done, so that he would have no business.  But in this way, the news about Song Xiuping's eye-catching incident will spread, which will definitely have an impact on his reputation.

    Antiques is different from other circles. Eye piercing is a normal thing, and it is normal for experts to have pierced eyes. But even if they are pierced, they are not willing to say it, but swallow the bitter pill in their own stomachs. The reason is very simple, because it will make people feel uncomfortable.  Others question your appraisal level.

    ? ?Therefore, on the surface, it is rare to hear about the recent criticism of a certain expert, so ordinary people will think that the expert is the authority, and his judgments are correct and will not criticize.

    "Forget it, you will fall into the lower class."

    Song Xiuping waved his hand: "A liar will always deceive others, and he will always pay the price for what he has done. As for the loss I suffered, it was because of my own greed. If I didn't have the mentality of picking up the slack at the time, this wouldn't have happened.  ¡±

    Since Song Xiuping said this, Meng Zitao changed the topic and talked about cooperation.

    For Song Xiuping, this was an opportunity to increase the value of his collection. There were only advantages and no disadvantages, and there was no need to worry about mistakes, so he readily agreed.

    Afterwards, Song Xiuping planned to take Meng Zitao to his home to select collections. The museum's booths were limited and it was impossible to move all his collections. It would not be Song Xiuping's solo exhibition.  Of course, Song Xiuping would like this, but it is certainly unrealistic.

    Song Xiuping closed the door and went downstairs with Meng Zitao.

    Because of the treasure appraisal competition, Meng Zitao is also a celebrity in Jinling. When they see him, people say hello to him from time to time. Some people also want an autograph or something. It can be said that Meng Zitao is treated like a superstar here.

    Fortunately, Meng Zitao arrived late, and there were not many customers in the antique city. Otherwise, it would definitely attract onlookers. Even so, Meng Zitao also spent a lot of effort to get out of the antique city.

    Meng Zitao smiled bitterly and said: "I finally know why celebrities wear glasses and hats when they come out of the airport. Most people really can't stand such enthusiasm."

    Song Xiuping laughed and said: "To be honest, I also want to enjoy such treatment, but I just don't have the life"

    "Sir, please wait a moment."

    The two people were walking and chatting when suddenly a shout came from behind.

    Song Xiuping looked back and his expression changed. The owner of the voice was none other than the store owner who had deceived him.

    "Boss Chang, what do you want me to do?" Song Xiuping looked unhappy.

    The store owner smiled all over his face: "Old sir, I'm really sorry for what happened just now. I discussed it with my friend later and he agreed to refund the money. You can return the items to me." (Remember the website address: www.  hlnovel.com
