The person Zhang Yilong wanted to find for Gu Qing was Liu Mazi, who lived on Temple Street. Zhang Yilong had known Liu Mazi a long time ago and knew that Liu Mazi had a lot of antiques in his collection. In the past, Liu Mazi often showed off in front of them. It made them all kinds of envious and jealous, but they were helpless. After all, they were from the second generation of wealth and had enough funds to collect things. However, Zhang Yilong and the others started from scratch and were novices, so how could they compare with him.
But at this moment, Zhang Yilong transformed into a "rich generation." Not only did he have the ability to collect various antiques, but his eyesight also improved greatly, not to mention that he had the magical "Sky Eye." Seeing through, discovering aura, these But they are all beyond the imagination of ordinary people with naked eyes.
So soon Zhang Yilong contacted Liu Mazi on the phone and asked about the situation. Liu Mazi told them to go directly to his home to find him.
"Bu Qing, Xiao Bin, let's go." After making the call, Zhang Yilong greeted Gu Qing and the others, and then the group happily walked towards the old house where Liu Mazi's family was located.
In less than five minutes, Zhang Yilong took Lu Qing and the others to Liu Mazi's house, and immediately met Liu Mazi.
"Hey, Xiaolong, is this your girlfriend?! Are you so lucky? You found such a beautiful girlfriend after not seeing each other for a few days. I'm so happy for you!"
When meeting Zhang Yilong and the others, Liu Mazi was attracted by Gu Qing who was beside Zhang Yilong. Seeing that he was so close to Zhang Yilong and their relationship was very close, he subconsciously thought that Gu Qing was Zhang Yilong's girlfriend.
"Oh!" Zhang Yilong was caught off guard when he heard Liu Mazi's sudden conversation. The other party also misunderstood the relationship between him and Lu Qing, but he didn't explain it. After all, he and Lu Qing also had a warm relationship. In an ambiguous scene, the two had to pretend to be a couple in order to comfort her seriously ill grandfather, for fear that the revelation would embarrass Lu Qing.
At the same time, Gu Qingqing, who was standing close to Zhang Yilong, blushed slightly. She didn't say a word. To outsiders, it was obviously acquiescence.
But at this moment, the two outsiders Zhang Zhibin and San Lin, who were watching this scene, looked at each other with inexplicable expressions on their faces.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Zhibin thought to himself, "Isn't Brother Long's girlfriend Luo Yanni?! Why is this beautiful girl also his girlfriend?! Could it be" He ate the food in his mouth and thought about what was in the bowl. Two boats with one foot?!"
Although he was full of doubts, Zhang Zhibin's biggest reaction was envy. He never expected that Zhang Yilong, who had difficulty finding even ordinary girlfriends in the past, now found two girlfriends, and They are all as beautiful as flowers, and they are all of the best quality!
This is simply incredible!
It¡¯s different when people have money!
"Old Liu, let's take out the things and take a look first." To avoid embarrassment, Zhang Yilong immediately changed the subject.
"You're talking about the bronze mirror, right?" Liu Mazi asked back with a smile.
Zhang Yilong nodded and said: "Yes, I want an old mirror, preferably a more beautiful one. Price is not an issue. Don't worry, you won't suffer a loss."
The mirrors that Gu Qing wanted to collect were naturally more beautiful. "Oh, okay then." Liu Mazi agreed, "You guys came at the right time. I happen to have a few beautiful bronze mirrors here. Xiaolong, just wait. , I¡¯ll get it.¡±
"Well, let's go." Zhang Yilong nodded, and then watched Liu Mazi hurriedly turn around and ran into an inner room.
Not long after, Mazi Liu came out with a bag in his hand. The nylon bag was heavy, and there must be a lot of things stored in it.
"Crash!" Then Liu Mazi poured out the contents of the bag and put them on the table to show Zhang Yilong and others for them to choose.
The things Liu Mazi poured out were all mirrors. In fact, Zhang Yilong had admired them a long time ago. Liu Mazi's batch of bronze mirrors did have exquisite ones, but most of them were junk. They were either incomplete or had too thick patina. , almost all the key parts of the mirror are covered, or the shape and decoration of the bronze mirror are poor, which belongs to the kind of ancient mirror that is inherently cheap.
When he looked at it again, Zhang Yilong couldn't help but frown slightly when he took the first look. He saw that among the large number of bronze mirrors, there were a few pieces that were shining brightly. There was no doubt that they were of high quality, so he couldn't help but He thought to himself: "This Liu Mazi is becoming more and more unkind! He also wants to play this trick, but don't try to deceive my eyes, I can still see this little trick!"
"Wow, so many ancient mirrors!" Gu Qing said in surprise, "Some of them are quite beautiful. Hello, boss, can I?Take a look? "
"Of course!" Liu Mazi pointed at the pile of bronze mirrors enthusiastically and said, "You can just take a look at it."
"Thank you." Gu Qing happily picked up one of the bronze mirrors. The mirror had a handle and no obvious patina. It looked very neat and beautiful. It seemed to be much newer than his mirror.
"Xiaolong, what do you think of this mirror? It's carved." Gu Qing said to Zhang Yilong with a smile on his face.
"That's fake." Zhang Yilong leaned over and explained in a low voice in Lu Qing's ear, "Antiques are not works of art. Don't just look at the completeness and exquisiteness. Nowadays, the level of craftsmanship is so high that anything can be done. It¡¯s very delicately done!¡±
"This is a fake?! How did you spot it?! Tell me quickly." Lu Qing looked at Zhang Yilong curiously, wanting to get the answer from the other person's mouth.
Zhang Yilong said: "There are some things that you can tell at a glance that something is wrong. This thing has no skin, only light."
"Pi Ke?" Gu Qing asked doubtfully, "What is Thieving Light?"
Zhang Yilong said patiently: "The leather shell is the patina, which is the trace left by the years on antiques. It is generally difficult to imitate, so it is easy for a discerning person to see it. The thief's light is the new light, which is opposite to the patina, indicating that the thing is a new imitation. It's brand new and not very old. You can see how new some parts of this mirror are, and it emits a very unnatural light. It's obviously a new imitation, but the craftsmanship is pretty good."
Lu Qing didn't even know this, so you can imagine how confused the other party was. You will definitely suffer in this industry, but if you think about it, it's normal. Zhang Yilong and Zhang Zhibin were not the same when they first joined the antique shop. , others can easily deceive them into not knowing how much ¡°tuition¡± they have paid.
"That's it!" After listening to Zhang Yilong's explanation, Lu Qing nodded with enlightenment and said with a smile, "Well, I understand. Then you can choose some mirrors for me."
After saying that, she put the bronze mirror that was suspected to be an eagle product back to its original position and asked Zhang Yilong to choose it for her.
"Okay." Zhang Yilong responded, so he turned his head and looked at the pile of bronze mirrors with all his concentration. He looked at them for about a few minutes. Suddenly, he picked up a mirror.
"Xiao Qing, this lotus mirror is good." Zhang Yilong greeted Gu Qing softly and said, "Take a look for yourself."
As he said that, he handed the mirror to Gu Qing and let her play with it. Gu Qing took it and watched it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She said with joy, "What is this mirror with the hibiscus flower decoration on the back?" From the Dynasty? It looks really beautiful and antique, I like it very much!"
"As long as you like it." Zhang Yilong replied with a smile, "If my estimate is correct, this mirror is from the Tang Dynasty and it does have some collection value. Just buy this mirror. The others are more ordinary. .¡±
"Well, if you say you can get it, it must be no problem!" Gu Qing nodded solemnly and said happily, "Then buy this piece. Xiaolong, help me negotiate the price with the boss. I don't know how much he wants. "
Zhang Yilong said: "I'm an acquaintance, easy to talk to, and shouldn't ask for a lot of money."
After Gu Qing handed the hibiscus flower mirror back to Zhang Yilong, Zhang Yilong directly asked about Liu Mazi and said, "Old Liu, how do you calculate the price of this mirror?"
Liu Mazi said with a smile: "Xiaolong, this is not the first time you and I have done business. We are old friends, so of course we have to give you the best price. Let's see, you guys went all the way here just for this mirror. , then I¡¯ll give you the lowest price, you can take it for 20,000 yuan!¡±
"Twenty thousand?" Zhang Yilong seemed a little surprised and said quickly, "Old Liu, haha, you are dishonest. You shouldn't have spent much money on this mirror when you took it back, right?"
He and Liu Mazi are used to joking, so Zhang Yilong is not afraid of "hurting" people, and just say whatever he wants. The other party likes to take advantage of small things, and those things definitely don't cost that much money. Although Gu Qing doesn't lack the money, but Less is better, and buyers strive for high quality and low prices.
"No!" Liu Mazi shook his head seriously and said, "It cost a lot! That thing is quite expensive, but the hibiscus flower mirror from the Tang Dynasty is worth collecting!"
Zhang Yilong said: "The one from the Tang Dynasty? It's not that old, right? The one from the Republic of China seems to be an imitation of the Qing Dynasty at most. I like it better because it's done better."
¡°Then you say it yourself.
How much is the most you can pay? "Liu Mazi seemed to believe Zhang Yilong when he saw what he said seriously, so he gave in and let Zhang Yilong pay for it himself.
Zhang Yilong hesitated for a moment and said: "Twenty thousand is indeed too much, this thing can be up to eight thousand."
"Ouch!" Liu ?The wife immediately made a look of pain, and said with an exaggerated expression, "Xiaolong, you are not kind! You cut me off so hard every time I discuss business, so I don't want to do business with you anymore." When you do business, there are only two words, and that is 'frustrated!'"
Zhang Yilong smiled and said: "Don't pretend to be aggrieved. You and I have a tacit understanding. I won't say this if I don't let you make money. Lao Liu, tell me, will eight thousand be enough?"
"Twelve thousand?! At least twelve thousand, if you think you can take it, then take it!" Liu Mazi frowned and said.
"Then you mean there's nothing to talk about?" Zhang Yilong smiled meaningfully, "Old Liu, to tell you the truth, if we have time, we can definitely find something like this in a larger antique store. Bronze mirror, the price is unbelievable! Do you believe it?"
"I believe it, why don't I believe it! You just love to bleed me! Come on, I'm scared of you!" Liu Mazi said helplessly.
Zhang Yilong knew everything about him, which gave him a headache.
So Zhang Yilong soon helped Gu Qing negotiate the deal. Later, Gu Qing took out 8,000 yuan and paid and delivered the goods to Liu Mazi.
After making the deal, Zhang Yilong and the others said goodbye and left the old house of Liu Mazi's family. Zhang Yilong was about to invite Zhang Zhibin and Lu Qing to dinner when someone called him. ! ~!
