Chapter 149: Are You Really Opening the Door?

When she woke up last night, she was still wearing the same clothes as before, and she was not wearing the jade pendant. Chen Yu had told him about the circumstances after her death. Her jade pendant must have fallen onto the cliff along with her body, and was probably picked up by a passerby. Now, by chance, it has returned to her. Perhaps this was a special arrangement by God.

Xu Zhao looked at the white jade mandarin duck pendant in his hand with great joy, "Perhaps in the eyes of others, the broken jade pendant is worthless, but in my heart, it is the most valuable."

"Boss," she raised her eyes and looked away, looking at the stall owner, "I still have four hundred in my hand. Why don't you choose an item on your stall that's worth the price, and I'll use the remaining money to buy it. What do you think?"

If the boss was greedy, he would probably have accepted all the five hundred yuan when she took it out and would not have returned the four hundred yuan.

If it was something else, she would have accepted it long ago, but it had to be this white jade mandarin duck pendant.

The boss must have had a hard time coming here, so the remaining four hundred yuan might as well be used as a reward for his hard work. However, the farmer is a simple man, so he probably won't take the money for nothing, so it would be better to use the money to buy what he has stalled.

"Girl, these are all scraps of copper and iron buried in the yard. They are not worth much money. Why don't I sell them to you for 100 yuan each."

The boss was a simple-minded man and didn't care too much. He knew that the girl was eager to give him money, but he was also an honest man. If he sold it at a higher price, he would be cheating.

Xu Zhao casually picked up an incense burner on the stall.

She really didn't know much about this, and when she picked it up, she really couldn't figure out what it was all about.

The only thing that is clear is that since these were dug up by the boss from his own yard, and the boss looks to be in his 50s or 60s, if even he doesn't know about it, it means these things have been buried for at least 50 or 60 years.

In this case, even if it is not authentic, it has been so many years, and with luck it might be a cultural relic from before the liberation.

Thinking about it this way, four hundred dollars is definitely worth it.

"Boss, I want this incense burner. It looks very nice," he said, handing over the remaining four hundred yuan in his hand. "Don't refuse. I really want it. Now that I've bought it for four hundred yuan, we've settled the deal."

The incense burner that Xu Zhao liked was a pastel-colored incense burner. The four legs of the incense burner were dusty, but it was not difficult to see a hint of golden luster. He wiped off the dirt on the incense burner with his fingertips, and the blue background of the burner was revealed, with floral patterns painted on it.

It is indeed something that girls would like when they see it.

"Miss, this incense burner and jade pendant are really not worth the price. Why don't you pick something else?"

The stall owner used a palm-leaf fan to block the money Xu Zhao handed over. For the 500 yuan, he would need to carry a heavy shoulder pole and walk more than ten kilometers to the town, and he might not be able to earn that much even if he shouted all day long.

Now I am just sitting here, no need to shout, there is no difficulty except to dry some things in the sun, but I feel uneasy holding this money.

"Boss, just keep this money. Money can't buy what you love. Other owners on this antique street are trying to raise the prices of their items. Yours is the cheapest."

After much persuasion, the boss finally accepted the money given by Xu Zhao.

Qiao Zhijing, who was standing by, saw the two men pushing money back and forth and felt that the boss in front of him was honest. He also thought that Xu Zhao had already bought what he liked, while he still had nothing.

How about...

The snuff bottle in his hand was now tinged with his body temperature. It was small and fit perfectly in his palm. "Boss, I'll buy this snuff bottle for five hundred dollars."

The boss was really overwhelmed by the continuous high prices paid for what he considered to be junk, and his hasty attempts to refuse made him feel overwhelmed.

Qiao Zhijing was afraid that the boss would not accept it, so he explained to him: "Boss, we are actually filming a variety show, which is now being broadcast live. The program team gave us the task of giving me 500 yuan and asking us to buy cultural relics on this street."

"But we are not professional treasure appraisers, and we don't know which ones are cultural relics and which ones are fakes. We just want to buy what we like, regardless of whether it is real or fake."

Xu Zhao touched the white jade mandarin duck pendant in her hand, but unfortunately modern clothes were not suitable for wearing such accessories as jade pendants, so she could only hold it in her hand.

Hearing that Qiao Zhijing was also planning to buy something from the stall, and that she was explaining something to the boss, she agreed, "Boss, just take it. It's paid for by the program team anyway, so why not refuse it? For the two of us, the most we've done is lose the game, so there's no loss at all."

"Yes, yes." Qiao Zhijing laughed. He didn't expect Xu Zhao to be so direct and express his thoughts in front of the camera. He was afraid that the director sitting in front of the monitor would have a heart attack.

[If I were the director, I would be the first to take back Xu Zhao's 500 yuan and declare her the loser, laughing.jpg.]

[If I had 500 yuan to participate in this program, I would just buy whatever I like, regardless of whether it is real or fake. 】

[This boss’s things are really cheap, and some of them look really nice. Is this the aesthetic of our ancestors? I'm going on a business trip to City A tomorrow, I don't know if he's still there.】

[Cameraman, can you please zoom in and focus? I'm a junior archaeology student, and the things here seem very interesting! ! ! 】

[Oh my god, is this true? Are you really going to open the door? 】

[If the door is opened, Brother Qiao and Xu Zhao will make a fortune! 】

There are many talented people on the Internet, but it's a pity that Xu Zhao and Qiao Zhijing don't have the ability to appraise treasures, and they have no idea how lucky they are at this moment.

After buying what they wanted, the two of them were contented and found a restaurant near the antique street to eat.

The program team only stipulated that 500 yuan could be spent on the antique street, and there were no other restrictions.

Qiao Zhijing had been holding the snuff bottle he had just bought in his hand. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He waved his hand and invited Xu Zhao and their photographer to dinner.

After eating and drinking, Xu Zhao thought about returning to the program crew’s minibus to wait for other guests.

Qiao Zhijing was in high spirits at the moment. Before Xu Zhao could express his thoughts, he said, "It's still early. Let's go shopping on the antique street. The program team has completed its mission. I want to see if there is anything else I like. Zhao Zhao, can you give me some suggestions?"

Xu Zhao looked up at the ladybug-shaped alarm clock hanging on the wall of the hotel. It was only 1:30 in the afternoon, which was indeed quite early. If he went back now, he would probably just sit in the car or sleep, which would mean he wouldn't be able to perform in a variety show at all.

Even if she doesn't care, she will try her best to avoid being scolded by netizens.

I immediately agreed to go out for a walk.

As for buying things, she had already bought what she valued most, and other cultural relics had no appeal to her at all.

The two walked to the end of the antique street and saw a group of people gathered together, making a lot of noise.

"I seem to hear a familiar voice?" Qiao Zhijing frowned and said uncertainly.
