Two hundred thousand? Is that just enough to fob off a beggar?

Standing next to Xu Lu, holding her live-streaming equipment, Dilraba was so surprised by what she heard that she couldn't close her mouth.

Although for Dilraba herself, 200,000 is not a particularly large sum of money.

If you let her take it, she can take it out easily.

However, she knew that Xu Lu had only spent 40,000 yuan when he bought that bottle.

Selling it for 200,000 now means making four times the money in one transaction, which is an astonishing profit!

Who knew that Xu Lu still thought the old man's offer was like "giving a beggar a handout," then...

"Does this guy really know his stuff, or is he just making a wild guess because he sees the old man likes bottles?"

Reba couldn't help but think this to herself.

Another person who witnessed the whole process was the stall owner who had just sold the bottles, and he was completely stunned.

Two hundred thousand!

The bottle he sold for a mere 40,000 yuan not long ago is now being offered for 200,000 yuan!

Even with such an outrageously high price that would make anyone's heart race, that young man wasn't tempted at all.

"Damn it, why am I having such bad luck today? God, are you blind?!"

The two were preoccupied with their own thoughts, and the fans in the live stream were also shocked and unable to calm down.

[My god, this streamer knows how to negotiate! He's so calm!]

[In just a few minutes, it went from 100,000 to 200,000. I wonder how much 200,000 will become next...]

Why do I suddenly feel like the streamer knows a bit about antiques? Otherwise, how could he be so calm?

[Yes, the host's last sentence seemed quite meaningful. "Did you really think I knew nothing?" Conversely, doesn't that mean the host actually knows a lot?]

Even if he knows a lot, does he really know as much as that expert Li? If you ask me, in this contest, the anchor is still at a disadvantage.

That's true. In the antique business, whoever has a good eye and plenty of experience has the advantage.

As for who has the greater advantage between the anchor and expert Li, there's no need to elaborate!

...

Not to mention the heated discussions among fans.

The elderly man with the crew cut, referred to as Expert Li, quickly raised his hand to stop them after witnessing what had just happened:

"Hey young man, don't be in such a hurry. We can discuss the price properly."

"So, I've been making all the bids so far, and you weren't satisfied. How about you make a bid now?"

Upon hearing this, the fans in the live stream and Dilraba nodded in agreement.

[Expert Li's suggestion is quite good. I wonder how much the host will bid?]

If you ask me, I'd suggest starting with 500,000 and seeing how things go. If that doesn't work, we can lower the price a bit more...

That makes sense. We can only ask for more money; this expert, Mr. Li, is certainly not short of cash.

[500,000 is too high! The expert initially only offered 100,000. Even if it's outrageous, it shouldn't be this much more expensive, right?]

[Haha, how do you think those experts make their money? They make it off those who don't know what's good for them!]

...

After reading the comments in the live stream, Dilraba quietly approached Xu Lu.

She reached out and tugged at Xu Lu's clothes, then whispered a reminder:

"Xu Lu, the fans in the live stream are asking you to bid 500,000. If that's not enough, you can lower it a bit!"

Surprisingly, the old man called Expert Li had excellent hearing.

His expression immediately changed, and he said:

"Young man, I've taken a liking to your bottle and sincerely want to buy it, but if the price is too high, then I won't take it!"

Reba, realizing she might have done more harm than good, stuck out her tongue and was about to apologize to Xu Lu.

Unexpectedly, Xu Lu patted her head, stepped forward, and said with a smile:

"Since you really want it, I won't bother with any of that nonsense. One price, four million!"

Transfer the money now and you can take home this imperial enamel vase with a spring breeze and peach blossom design.

"Four hundred thousand? Oh no, it's all because I was too talkative just now, and Xu Lu lost one hundred thousand..."

Wait, something's not right. Did I just hear him say four million?

Reba's eyes widened, eager to hear Xu Lu repeat himself.

However, the scene was completely silent at this moment, and Xu Lu showed no intention of speaking again.

Fortunately, she realized she still had her live-streaming equipment. She quickly checked the comments from the viewers in the live stream and found:

[This is insane! Insane! Four million! My God! The streamer is bidding four million!]

[This...is the streamer crazy, or am I? Four million? Who would have thought?]

Did you all listen carefully just now? Although the streamer asked for four million, he explained the origin of the bottle in great detail, which means...

[This means the streamer really knows this bottle, and that the price he quoted wasn't outrageous!]

...

[Holy crap, if this bottle can really sell for four million, then... that expert Li is a real bastard!]

That's right! Someone else's treasure is worth four million, and he actually wants to buy it for only 100,000. This old dog is dreaming too much.

And do you guys remember how this old guy told our streamer not to be too greedy?! For God's sake...!

This is the true face of experts! It's so damn ugly, it's disgusting!

I used to admire this guy, but now I realize that people like him will say anything against their conscience for money.

...

It only took a moment.

The fans in the live stream then bombarded the expert, Li, who frequently appeared on a certain treasure appraisal program, with criticism.
