    Anyway, the jadeite in the woolen material was not big, so it was nothing to Chu Chen, and there were better items waiting for him in the afternoon, so he was happy to be a favor and agreed with a smile.  Seeing that Chu Chen agreed, Lu Changshun quickly expressed his gratitude with a smile on his face.  Chu Chen¡¯s piece of wool was not big. Although the stone jade master was very careful when cutting it because it was glass jade, it didn¡¯t take long to roughly take out the jade.  "This piece of glass is not big!" "You are a typical person who says grapes are sour when you can't eat grapes. This is glass, and it is still full of green. Don't look at it, it is worth at least two million!"  Someone sneered.  "Hiss!" Some newcomers to the industry gasped when they saw that a piece of glass jade smaller than a palm was worth two million.  "Fifteen thousand can be turned into two million in the blink of an eye. This money is quite profitable!" "If you think it's a good deal, go buy it too!" Someone next to him laughed.  "What you said, even if I want to buy it, I have to be as capable as the Jade King! Hey, I just came a little too late and didn't see where this piece of wool was picked, otherwise I would have gone too  Let¡¯s try our luck.¡± ¡°I know that. Let¡¯s go and take a look!¡± ¡°Come on! If you¡¯re quick, you can¡¯t do it with slow hands¡­¡± After that, the two of them quickly headed towards the woolen place.  Run.  Seeing this, some people also ran up.  Of course, people with a clear head will definitely not follow the trend like this, but people are easily affected by the atmosphere.  In particular, some people were worried that others would pick out all the good wool, so almost all the onlookers ran away after a while.  I saw it was because of Chu Chen.  The business in the store was so good, Lu Changshun was very happy.  He directly gave Chu Chen 2.4 million.  At this price, Lu Changshun basically had no profit, but because of Chu Chen, the income brought to him was far more than 400,000, so he would not be unhappy at all with this money.  The auction time in the afternoon was set at two o'clock. Although you could go to the place to look at the auction materials after eating, after lunch, Chu Chen saw that the time had not yet reached twelve o'clock, so he felt that it was too early to go.  I was bored, so I decided to go to the market to have a look.  Because today is Friday.  It was noon again, and there were not many people in the market. Chu Chen greeted some familiar vendors while shopping, stopped and bought only a few small things, and the prices were not expensive.  Generally speaking, although antiques may have a reference price, the antiques sold at small stalls generally do not have exact prices. They are based on the cost of the purchase by the stall owner.  And judge the quality of the goods, come up with an estimate, and then shout out an asking price based on the profit you want to make.     so.  Although Chu Chen's reputation has become bigger now, he still started out as a hawker after all. Although the price of the things he likes may be higher than others.  But at least the prices given by the vendors are not outrageous, compared with the market reference price.  Still very cheap.  This is also because Chu Chen knows his stuff. If he meets someone who doesn¡¯t know his stuff.  I'm sorry, if you don't kill people, where will the hawkers' living expenses come from?  Of course, the knife can be either light or heavy. If you are kinder, you can use a lighter knife, and if you are a sinister person, use a heavier knife. For example, the person next to Chu Chen, Shi "Papi", is a particularly sinister person.  Chu Chen didn¡¯t know what Shi Papi was called, because the other party had been in the antique business much earlier than him. When Chu Chen came here to set up a stall a few years ago, others had already called him Shi Papi.  As for why he is called Shi Papi, as the name suggests, it means that he likes to squeeze out the profits from selling things, so the same thing bought from him will be at least 10% more than at other stalls.  In this regard, he and Ma Laocai are almost as good as each other.  However, the difference between Shi Papi and Ma Laocai is that he is kinder to sellers and colleagues, because he knows that when selling things, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Even if he sells things more expensively, as long as he does not deliberately deceive people,  Customers won't bother him either.  But if the seller and peers are dissatisfied, how can he get good goods?  Although Shi Papi¡¯s goods are expensive, he has a very honest and honest face, and he is eloquent. Some players who don¡¯t know the inside story like to buy from him.  Therefore, he has made a lot of money over the years, and at least he has no problem opening a store here.  As for why Shi Papi is still a hawker now, it¡¯s because this guy only has an elementary school education and only has a superficial understanding of antiques. Although he has a good mind and usually only collects cheaper items, if he sees him, he thinks they are good.  No matter how much it costs, as long as he can afford it, he will buy it.    Actually, he couldn¡¯t explain why he bought these things that he thought were good. The reason why he bought them was because he bought them based on the introductions on TV, illustrations in books, or things similar to those in museums.  of.  ??Things bought like this show how high the probability of authenticity is. Basically, nine out of ten items are fake.  On one occasion, he even made a joke that made his colleagues dumbfounded.  That was the year before last.  That day was Saturday, and there happened to be a ghost market. Shi Papi didn't have any good stuff at that time, and he didn't take anything, so he went to the market early to hunt for goods.  ??Wandering around, it¡¯s almost dawn, but I haven¡¯t found anything I like yet.  Shi Papi was unwilling to give in and continued to search in the noisy crowd. Suddenly, a piece of porcelain came into his eyes, which immediately made him excited.  It was a three-legged washbasin with sky blue glaze on the surface. It looked thick and thick, but a closer look gave people a rough feeling, not to mention earthworm mud patterns. In addition, the shape of the vessel was also very irregular. It was obviously  A low-grade imitation.  But Shi Papi thought it was an authentic Jun kiln from the Song Dynasty, so he immediately stopped and motioned to the stall owner to see the goods.  The stall owner is an old man who specializes in selling goods. When he saw Shi Papi, his eyes were shining. He was holding his dirty and old goods and looking at them for a while. He looked like he was not ready to let go. He didn't know that he was in trouble.  When I arrived at Bang Chui, I felt a burst of joy in my heart.  Shi Papi stared greedily at the thing in his hand, while also guarding against being stared at by others.  It's just that in the antique business, many people like to watch the excitement, including Shi Papi himself. Seeing Shi Papi's nervous look, everyone thought there was some excitement, and soon several people gathered around.  Seeing this, Shi Papi was really nervous, thinking that others were interested in the treasure in his hand, so he tried his best to hide the three-legged wash to his side so that others could not see it, and then quickly asked the stall owner for a price.  Finally, he met a stick. The stall owner was secretly happy at the same time, so he opened his mouth and asked for thirty thousand yuan for something worth dozens of yuan.  ¡°These days, even in the capital, thirty thousand yuan is a relatively large amount for ordinary people. But when Shi Papi heard this price, he almost fainted out of joy. Why?  Because he thinks this Jun kiln is an authentic product from the Song Dynasty. Since it is authentic, 30,000 yuan is nothing!  Although Shi Papi¡¯s mouth was twisted with joy, he still wanted to make a counteroffer. Firstly, it was because of his business habits. Secondly, he didn¡¯t have enough money on hand and wanted to delay the time and think of a way.  After all, how many people visited the ghost market in those days and brought 30,000 yuan with them?  Don't bring 30,000 yuan. He doesn't even have 30,000 yuan in cash at home.  Unexpectedly, the bargaining went extremely smoothly. The stall owner gave in 8,000 yuan, and the payment on the spot only required 22,000 yuan.  Seeing that Shi Papi had taken advantage of him, how could he give up? However, he only had 8 million in his pocket, not even a fraction. Fortunately, the cash at his home totaled 22,000, so he kept pestering him.  Ask the stall owner to pick it up at his home.  Although there are many minefields in the antique business, the stall owner's eyesight is not bad. He can see that Shi Papi really wants to buy it. Coupled with Shi Papi's honest look and the profit of more than 20,000 yuan, the stall owner thinks about it.  , and agreed.  Of course, the transaction was actually quite smooth.  Once the thing was in hand, Shi Papi was so happy that he never closed his mouth.  Wipe things until they are shiny, and the more you look at them, the happier you become.  However, Shi Papi also knew what he was worth. After being happy for a few days, he felt a little unsure about whether the thing was right or wrong. He immediately decided to find an expert to help identify it.  Shi Papi is relatively wild. He has a fellow who works as a porcelain appraisal expert in the Beijing Museum. He is very high-level and very influential throughout the country. Moreover, this expert is a distant relative of his. On several occasions, he has  I couldn't estimate the item accurately, so I asked this expert to help me identify it.  However, those are all fakes.  Because he was afraid that something might get lost, when Shi Papi went there, he even called all his family members.  When he got there, Shi Papi was not in a hurry. He waited until after dinner before telling him his purpose.  Helping to identify things was a trivial matter for the expert, but when Shi Papi took the things out, he was stunned. How could he buy something that was so obviously fake at first glance and treat it as genuine?  Shi Papi was stunned when he saw the expert. He thought his stuff was so good that he shocked the experts. He was so happy and excited that he even asked the other person with a smile how the stuff was.  Seeing the Shi Papi family looking at him with hopeful expressions, the expert was also troubled. In the end, he could only say vaguely: "Things like this, if they were placed in ancient times, they would have been played by emperors."  I didn't even understand the meaning, so I couldn't help but feel happy.  After being happy for a long time, Shi Papi asked the expert for the appraisal certificate.  How can it be possible to detect something like this that is fake at first sight?The expert quickly said that he was working for the museum and could not issue a certificate.  Shi Papi didn't understand this either, so he happily returned home with his family. After a while, he protected his things closely and kept them with him. When he met an acquaintance, he would show them off in a showy way.  In addition, he also told others that so-and-so said that this thing was played by emperors in ancient times.  (To be continued)
