"You kid knows a fart, in recent years, Chinese antiques have been very hot in the foreign art market, and sooner or later they will be driven up in China. I think you are a big fart, but your mouth is not small!"
Although Ye Tian didn't speak loudly, he was still heard by Ye Dongping, and immediately glared at him, last year statistics showed that the total transaction volume of an auction house in Shanghai was 7.8 billion, which can be regarded as a big business?
"Okay, you're right, Dad, hurry up and look at the objects, the good things will be picked up if it's late!" Ye Tian smiled and didn't argue, in his heart, the feng shui practitioner should be far more profitable than the antique business.
"Yes, what kind of teeth are I grinding with you kid, by the way, don't talk nonsense later, you won't offend people."
Ye Dongping nodded and explained a few words to Ye Tian, trading items in this kind of place, first, you can't ask about the source, and secondly, you can't get close to others.
"Okay, I know, Dad, let's look at it separately." Ye Tian waved his hand impatiently and simply stopped walking with his father, so as not to listen to him.
"You stinky boy!" Ye Dongping didn't have a problem with his son, but he knew that Ye Tian knew a lot about crooked ways, but he wasn't worried about what his son would do.
"Even if this antique business gets better, I'm afraid it will be hyped up by the people here." Ye Tian looked at the people squatting on the ground picking objects, and felt a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
But this also shows that people's living conditions are better now, so they will think about collecting antiques.
Shaking his head and getting rid of the strange thoughts in his mind, Ye Tian wandered around inside, to be honest, he was here with his father today, and he didn't expect to find anything good here.
Sure enough, after visiting seven or eight stalls, Ye Tian didn't find anything good, of course, this is relatively speaking, these objects may be priceless treasures in the eyes of others.
The people who do business here are different from those who get rid of Pan Jiayuan, things are thrown on the ground, you see whether you buy them or not, they will not take the initiative to say hello, anyway, they are all old objects, if you don't buy them, someone will naturally look at them.
At this time, Ye Tian was playing with a Suzaku lamp, about 20 centimeters high, the Suzaku raised its head and tail, stepped on the dragon, and held the lamp plate in its mouth, making a shape of spreading its wings and about to fly.
Ye Tian noticed this thing, naturally not because he knew that this lamp was a representative work of the bronze lamps unearthed in the Western Han Dynasty, but because the evil energy contained in this copper lamp was extremely heavy and should be stored for a long time in the place where the evil flowed.
People who understand feng shui have almost no knowledge of ancient tombs, because in ancient times, whether it was emperors and generals or wealthy families, before burial, they had to find someone to give feng shui.
The emperor's mausoleum must be positioned by feng shui practitioners from the beginning of construction, and even the placement of funerary goods and coffins must follow the opinions of feng shui practitioners.
So when Ye Tian looked at this thing, he knew that it should have been placed on the wall of the tomb passage near the door on the outer side, where the yin energy was converted into anger, and it was most vulnerable to evil energy.
After thinking for a while, he asked the man sitting behind the stall: "This big brother, how many years can this thing last?"
There were not many things on this stall, in addition to this copper lamp, there were also four or five rusted bronze mirrors, perhaps because the quality was too poor and there were too few things, only Ye Tian stopped by him.
"Western Han!" The person who set up the stall was not a few years older than Ye Tian, but he was very calm, and after the word Western Han popped out of his mouth, he closed his mouth tightly.
"Big brother, what price do you give for this thing?"
Ye Tian asked this, the young man raised his head and glanced at him, then put the copper mirrors in front of him together with his hands, and said, "Don't sell it alone, pack it!"
"Damn, will you die if you say a few more words?"
Ye Tian was amused by the way this person jumped out of his mouth and talked, but he really wanted to buy this object, and fiddled with the copper mirrors with his hands, Ye Tian said: "It's okay to pack it, let's make a price!"
"Come on, hold your hand!"
What surprised Ye Tian was that the young man actually stretched out his right hand to himself, Ye Tian really didn't expect that the person in front of him, who was not a few years older than himself, would still have this hand?
You must know that the way of bargaining by hand was first popular when buying and selling cattle, sheep and horses outside the Great Wall.
But in modern times, this method of negotiating prices is limited to antique shops, you know, when doing antique trading, it is the most taboo to have a third person next to you.
For example, if someone next to you says "this thing is wrong" or "only worth a hundred", the buyer will not buy it, and the seller will be angry.
If the person says, "Brother, you are lucky, you picked up the leak, this thing can sell for 10,000", the seller will definitely not sell it immediately, and the buyer will be angry.
Therefore, there is a rule in the antique shop, the people next to you are not allowed to bargain for things that others have started, and some elderly people prefer to use this gesture method to negotiate the price, just to prevent others from making trouble.
Moreover, this method can also make onlookers not know how much the object is sold for in the end, which is more beneficial for buying things in the future.
When Ye Tian followed Lao Dao to walk the rivers and lakes, he had also learned this method of negotiating prices, and he was a little surprised and stretched out his right hand.
Holding both hands, the man raised his index finger, tapped it on Ye Tian's hand, and then raised his eyes to look at Ye Tian.
Ye Tian shook his head slightly, raised the middle finger of his right hand, tapped it three times in a row on the other party's hand, and then touched the other party's thumb with his thumb, also kept silent, his eyes fixed on the man.
When using this gesture to negotiate prices, each finger has its own meaning, the thumb represents millions, the index finger represents 100,000, the middle finger represents 10,000, the ring finger represents 1,000, and the little finger represents 100.
Of course, the price represented by the finger in the gestures of various places is different, but in the antique store, the objects traded in this way are relatively valuable, so the smallest price unit is generally up to 100.
Just now, the man's middle finger was raised and he tapped it on Ye Tian's hand, which was to bid 100,000 yuan, but Ye Tian tapped it three times with his middle finger, and it was 30,000 yuan, and then he touched the other party with his thumb, which means that it was the final bid and he would not bargain with the other party again.
After Ye Tian's actions, the man was stunned for a moment, glanced at Ye Tian dissatisfiedly, and said: "This price is a bit too low, right? The appearance of this Suzaku lamp is very good!"
Ye Tian shook his head and said: "Bronzes are not easy to sell, if they can't go abroad, I'm afraid they won't even be able to sell at this price, I already gave them very high!"
Ye Dongping has been in the antique business for so many years, Ye Tian is no stranger to this industry, bronze is a cultural relic prohibited by the state, if you can't catch it, it's okay, once caught, you will be sentenced, because there are not many players who collect this kind of thing in China.
There are few people who collect it, so the price naturally can't go up, but Ye Tian doesn't know that the price he offered was two years ago, and now the price of the bronze is a little higher than two years ago, so the buddy showed an annoyed look.
"Can't you add more?" The man was a little unwilling.
Ye Tian shook his head and did not speak, you must know that this object was not the magic weapon that Ye Tian was looking for, but a murder weapon with extremely heavy evil.
However, the murder weapon can also be used to scare at certain times, and it plays an unexpected role in the feng shui bureau, but Ye Tian only bought it as a spare, and it was a thing that could be wanted, so it bit the price to death.
The young man hesitated for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, at this price, the deal!"
"Cheng, wait for me, I'll go get the money." For Ye Tian, buying this thing for 30,000 yuan is not a loss, sometimes the role of the murder weapon in the Feng Shui Bureau is even greater than that of the magic weapon.
Ye Tian was not afraid that he would play tricky tricks of stealing beams and changing pillars, that evil aura was like a big light bulb in the dark night, flashing in front of Ye Tian all the time, and he could sense it immediately if he changed it.
Finding Ye Dongping who was negotiating with someone in another stall, Ye Tian pulled him over, the money was in Ye Dongping's bag.
When he returned to the stall, the young man had already put several things in a sack he brought with him, and when he saw Ye Tian coming, the young man said: "Let's go, go to the house over there to trade, do you understand the rules?"
"What rules?"
Ye Tian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, negotiating the price and giving money to get the goods, what rules do you need for this? Rao is Ye Tian is well-informed, and he is a little confused.
"You don't know?" Seeing that Ye Tian was so sophisticated when he negotiated the price just now, and now he didn't even understand the rules of trading, the young man couldn't help but show a bit of surprise on his face.
"Understand, this brother, let's go, let's go!"
Although he didn't know what his son bought, when he saw Ye Tian asking out the line, Ye Dongping quickly rounded things up and explained to Ye Tian in a low voice.
"I see, that's right, that kid won't do good deeds in vain......" After hearing his father's words, Ye Tian also understood,
Ji Ran is responsible for the venue and safety here, of course there is a fee to provide these, Ji Ran has to charge a ten% commission after each business is completed, and this commission needs to be paid by the buyer.
