    When Chu Chen heard the price offered by the old man, he was also happy. Originally, he wanted to pay a lower price, but thinking that Uncle Lu was kind-hearted, he was prepared to pay a little less.  Of course, if you really want to talk about it, Chu Chen also missed the 50,000 yuan.  It's just that people are so strange. If Chu Chen really agrees right away, the other party will probably feel that he has suffered a loss and may increase the price. He has encountered this kind of thing many times in his previous career as a hawker.  .  So he smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle, your price is too high. How can a cup alone cost five times more than just now? Let's see, I really want this pair of cups. I  I don¡¯t want you to suffer a loss, let¡¯s count it as a pair of 20,000 yuan, what do you think?¡± Uncle Lu shook his head directly and said: ¡°Twenty thousand yuan is too little. My father said that this pair of cups was a rare pair, if it hadn¡¯t been for my daughter.  Nephew, I¡¯m afraid that the children will be naughty and break the things, so I won¡¯t take them out, but you also bought three cups earlier, so I¡¯ll make it cheaper, 40,000 pairs!¡± Chu Chen  Hearing what he said, you couldn't help but shake your head and laugh. When I asked you just now, you thought about it for a while before you remembered these cups. It must be because the shape of these cups is inconvenient for entertaining guests, so you just put them on the other side.  The corners are very small, if we hadn¡¯t asked you today, you don¡¯t know when you would think of these cups again!  Therefore, generally speaking, people with some business acumen will always come up with various reasons to make the situation more advantageous to them whenever they encounter something related to their own interests.  Chu Chen said with a sad face: "Uncle, to be honest, we are just making a small fuss. You have to let us make some money. These pairs of cups are worth twenty-five thousand, okay?" Uncle Lu frowned.  When he was about to say something, Chu Chen's cell phone rang, so Chu Chen could only apologize to him.  Step aside and answer the phone.  The call was from the person Du Hou sent to pick them up. He said they had arrived at Qian Cheng's car and asked when they would be back.  After Chu Chen expressed his gratitude, Liandao and the others would go there immediately and asked the driver to wait there for a while.   After hanging up the phone, Chu Chen walked back to his original position and found that Uncle Wu had already agreed on the price with the old man.  The other party quoted a price of thirty-six thousand, and they refused to get any cheaper at all.  Thinking that he had picked up the big leak anyway, Chu Chen nodded in agreement.  After the transaction was completed, Chu Chen asked the old man for a box and some newspapers. After packing the things carefully, the three of them said goodbye to the old man.  Walking on the way back.  Uncle Wu said: "Xiao Chen, do you know you made a mistake just now?" "What mistake?" Chu Chen thought for a long time without thinking about what mistake he had made, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.  Uncle Wu shook his head and said: "You, you have been in business for nearly five years, and you still don't pay attention to details. Why did you slap the money on the table just now? Didn't you tell the other party clearly that you don't want to pay attention to details?"  I¡¯m short of money!¡± Hear what Uncle Wu said.  Chu Chen was stunned for a moment. He was really careless just now. This is not a big business and requires proof of property. Whether it is a hawker or a situation like renting out a house, the most important thing is not to show wealth. It is easy to do this.  It just gives people the impression that I am not short of money, so if others don¡¯t kill you, who will you kill?  It¡¯s no wonder the old man offered such a high price.  And he refused to take any less money.  Thinking of this, Chu Chen apologized to Uncle Wu sincerely: "Uncle Wu, I'm really sorry. I will definitely pay attention to this next time!" Uncle Wu waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't be so serious. Experience comes from experience.  , It¡¯s all gained bit by bit. As long as you remember what happened today, don¡¯t make such a mistake next time! ¡­¡± The three of them walked to the place where the car accident occurred, and sure enough, a commercial vehicle was already parked there.  , and there was an old man in his seventies or eighties standing next to the car.  At this time, I was chatting with Qian Cheng.  "You are Mr. Du, right? Why are you here too?" Chu Chen hurriedly walked over and shook hands with the other party.  Du Hou shook hands with the three of them and said, "I don't have anything to do over there. I just came over to take a look, otherwise I would be really worried." "You are so polite!" With that, Chu Chen asked Uncle Wu  I introduced him to Hu Yong.  At this time, Qian Cheng asked strangely: "Hey, Xiao Chu, I remember that when you passed by just now, your hands were empty, right? Why did you get something extra when you asked the old man for a glass of water?" Chu  Chen chuckled and said, "We really just wanted to drink some water, but unexpectedly we had an accident, and ended up with a few extra things!" "Accident? What accident?" Qian Cheng asked with a puzzled look on his face. ????????? Du Hou reacted quickly and said it directly.Reporter: "Isn't there a bowl or teacup in this?" "How did you know?" Chu Chen was a little dumbfounded now.  Du Hou laughed and said: "It's very simple. I usually go to the countryside to collect some antiques. Although this kind of situation is rare, I have encountered it several times. However, this kind of situation did not happen in the 1980s and 1990s.  It¡¯s relatively common, but it¡¯s really rare now, especially around the Porcelain Capital.¡± Because of the atmosphere of the Porcelain Capital, what people in the Porcelain Capital like most is porcelain, and antique collections are generally dominated by porcelain.  It is becoming more and more popular. If most people have better porcelain, they have almost all been taken away or collected by themselves.  The chance that Chu Chen could receive five treasures this time was just like winning five million in a lottery ticket, which made Chu Chen feel a little incredible when he thought about it now.  Du Hou smiled and said: "What good things have you encountered this time? From your point of view, Xiao Chu, the things you received should not be bad, right?" Chu Chen said modestly: "I am just a small person now.  "Hey, I have to collect even ordinary items, right? But I was lucky this time and I actually collected a few fine items." As he said that, he put the box on the car and opened it.  When Du Hou and Qian Cheng saw the six cups in the box, they were immediately dumbfounded. After a while, after obtaining Chu Chen's consent, Du Hou couldn't wait to take out the cups in the box carefully.  Observe carefully and appreciate it.   After a while, Du Hou reluctantly put the last Sanskrit cup from the Yongzheng period back into the box, and then looked at Chu Chen and sighed incredulously: "I picked it up and didn't say anything, and it was all still there.  Excellent products, those two blue and white justice cups from the Xuande period are rare treasures. Xiao Chu, I don¡¯t know how to explain your luck!¡± Chu Chen chuckled, scratched his head and said, ¡°As the old saying goes.  Well, if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later. This may be a blessing in disguise!" Du Hou nodded and agreed with Chu Chen's words. He had also encountered this kind of blessing in disguise, like in 1981.  , he came back from collecting things in the countryside for the first time. At that time, there were no cars or cars, and bicycles were already a very good means of travel.  Because I got home late that time, it was already getting dark halfway through the ride, but I don¡¯t know who dug a hole on the side of the road and piled dirt on the road. As a result, he didn¡¯t pay attention and hit the car.  He went up and fell headlong out. He was already over fifty years old at the time, and his old bones almost fell apart.  What¡¯s more dangerous is that there is a very sharp piece of porcelain in front of him. If he moves forward for another minute, his head will be broken and his head will bleed, or he may be dead.  But at the time, he didn¡¯t know whether it was Fuling¡¯s heart or something else. He suddenly felt that the piece of porcelain in front of him was a good thing. He took it out and removed the sludge on it. Finally, after careful identification, he found that it had the same characteristics as the Ru kiln porcelain of the Northern Song Dynasty.  Exactly the same.  This made him both surprised and excited, and he quickly started searching around the area. As a result, he found a few more porcelain pieces in the pile of soil. Taken together, they happened to be a three-legged washbasin with shadow celadon glaze from Ru kiln.  It really made him extremely happy. If it hadn't been so dark that he couldn't see clearly, he would definitely continue to look for it.  It is precisely because of this experience that Du Hou began to like going to the countryside to collect antiques. And because he started collecting early, his current collection is very rich.  Getting back to the subject, Du Hou was very envious of Chu Chen's harvest this time, especially the two fair cups, so he asked Chu Chen: "Xiao Chu, I don't know how many cups you have.  Do you have any plans to take action? " "This" From his own perspective, Chu Chen didn't want to sell these cups for the time being, but after all, Du Hou was introduced by the master, so it wouldn't be good if he refused.  He immediately hesitated.  Du Hou saw Chu Chen's thoughts at a glance, so he said: "Xiao Chu, what I mean is this. Let's exchange things for things. When everything is done in the past few days, I will invite you to my house. What do you think?  Let¡¯s talk about it then, what do you think?¡± This proposal is indeed more suitable. I like these things very much, but when I meet something I like more, it won¡¯t hurt to exchange it, so Chu Chen agreed immediately.  Come down.  Du Hou was very happy to see Chu Chen agree. Next, Qian Cheng had to stay here because he still had to deal with the car. After Chu Chen and the others greeted Qian Cheng, they got into the business car and headed to where Du Hou said  That kiln factory.  There, the two other masters Uncle Wu mentioned were already waiting for them. One was Qian Cheng¡¯s grandfather Qian Lao, and the other master¡¯s surname was Li.  Because Chu Chen and the others have three people, the money?? and Mr. Li came in another car, which happened to be the case, otherwise it would have been troublesome, because Mr. Qian had a heart disease. If he had been sitting in the car and was so frightened just now, even if he hadn't been hit by the truck.  If you hit it, you may be frightened and have a heart attack.  Next, after introducing each other, everyone walked into the kiln factory with the staff and started to visit.  ¡­
