At the man's shout, several nearby stall owners looked at Su Jianwei who was beside Mr. Du.
Even Mr. Du looked at Su Jianwei.
Su Jianwei smiled innocently. When she took the snuff bottle, she guessed that it was a valuable item. Unexpectedly, she was right.
In this case, then my sudden ability to identify treasures can truly be considered a golden finger that defies the heavens.
When the two brothers looked over, she asked doubtfully, "Is there any regret for selling something?"
Boss Wu frowned. It would be fine if there was only a little girl like Su Jianwei, but with Boss Du by her side, it would not be so easy to get back the bargain he had worked so hard to get.
Boss Wu calmed down his anger and said to Su Jianwei, "The money and goods have been paid, so there is no reason to regret it."
But he was a little reluctant to give up just like that, not to mention that he had already promised the snuff bottle to someone else.
Thinking of the price that person had offered him, Boss Wu looked at Su Jianwei and gritted his teeth and said, "If the price is right, why don't you sell the snuff bottle back to me?"
As soon as Boss Wu said this, many people around him rolled their eyes at him.
The Wu family's way of doing things is too careless. There is no logic in selling and then buying back. If you don't know, you would think he is a greenhorn instead of a veteran who has been in the antique world for many years.
“The price is right…”
Su Jianwei was a little tempted because she wanted to exchange more money.
Besides, she had no interest in collecting things like snuff bottles.
Old Du heard Su Jianwei's excited words and said, "What snuff bottle? Do you need me, Grandpa Du, to give you a taste?"
Upon hearing this, Su Jianwei took out the snuff bottle from her bag and said, "This is the snuff bottle that I spent 66 yuan on along with the fan and the Chinese knot."
“I just thought it looked pretty at first.”
It is easy for an expert to pretend not to know something, but it is extremely difficult for an uninformed person to pretend to know something. If he is not careful, he may become a laughing stock in the eyes of others.
So Su Jianwei directly showed his ignorance to the fullest.
After taking the snuff bottle and examining it, Elder Du smiled and said, "Boss Wu is right. This is indeed a treasure used by Emperor Qianlong. Or rather, it was a birthday gift presented to Emperor Qianlong on his sixtieth birthday."
Du Lao pointed to Su Jianwei and said, "Look at the signature here. This is not something you would find on an ordinary snuff bottle."
He looked at Su Jianwei with a smile, "You are indeed lucky."
Su Jianwei's luck is considered one of the best among the people he knows, as he was able to find Da Qi Tong Bao and such a snuff bottle in succession.
After saying this, Mr. Du looked at Boss Wu who had been waiting there. "Things sold are like spilled water. Since you want to buy them back, then name your price."
Boss Wu took a deep breath. If Mr. Du had not been here, he estimated that he could buy the snuff bottle back for sixty or one hundred yuan. However, since Mr. Du, who knew the value of the goods, was here, he did not dare to make a random offer.
Boss Wu thought for a moment, looked at Boss Du and said tentatively, "Thirty thousand."
Mr. Du smiled and shook his head.
Boss Wu gritted his teeth and said directly, "Fifty thousand."
After saying that, he looked at Mr. Du and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Du, you have to leave me a way out."
He also realized that Su Jianwei was not the one who was in charge of this matter at all.
In other words, she simply didn't know the true value of this thing.
Mr. Du glanced at Su Jianwei, and Su Jianwei nodded.
So, are antiques so valuable?
Any snuff bottle is actually worth 50,000, and judging from what Boss Wu said, this snuff bottle should be able to be sold at a higher price.
"good."
Old General Du returned the snuff bottle to Su Jianwei and came to the stall of the Wu brothers. "I didn't expect you to make a mistake. You can make a mistake with such a good thing. It's not like you can do it."
Old Du is somewhat familiar with Boss Wu. His family has been engaged in land acquisition for generations. Now it is called "running around", which means going to rural areas and counties to collect antiques.
Both the father and son of the Wu family have good vision, so their business is doing well.
However, after the death of the head of the Wu family two years ago, their business has been in decline.
Now it seems that the original father-son business has become a brothers' business, but this brother seems to be very unreliable.
Boss Wu is regretting his decision now. He was in a hurry to go to the toilet and there were not many people around looking at the goods, so he temporarily handed over the stall to his younger brother.
Who would have thought that when he just went to see the excitement, the snuff bottle that he had carefully put away was taken out by this idiot and sold to someone else for 66 yuan as a filler.
Originally, he bought it for thirty dollars and could sell it to the Hong Kong businessman for sixty-six thousand. Now, the profit of nearly sixty-six thousand has directly turned into more than ten thousand. How can he not hate it!
"Mr. Du, please stop mocking me. I'll let him get the money right away."
Mr. Du nodded and smiled, "We are right over there with Mr. Feng."
"good."
When Grandpa Du took Su Jianwei away, Su Jianwei said, "Grandpa Du, thank you."
Du Lao smiled and said, "Why thank me? You are just lucky."
"But without you, I wouldn't be able to sell it for so much money."
Yes, Su Jianwei only knew that this thing was authentic and should be very precious, but he had no idea about its price.
Maybe Boss Wu can buy it from Su Jianwei for about ten thousand.
She likes money more than the snuff bottle in her hand.
"Without me, you won't lose much."
Old Master Du also noticed that although this girl was young, she was a successful person.
Mr. Du smiled and said, "I see you're not very old, you should be in high school, right?"
Su Jianwei nodded.
"You're so lucky, have you ever thought about applying for a history major, archaeology major, or a cultural heritage major?"
Su Jian smiled and shook his head, "It's just a temporary interest of mine, and I haven't considered this as my major in college yet."
"Besides, luck is mixed with too many metaphysical factors and uncertainties."
Although, she felt that she had become a certain factor after having this golden finger.
But no one is a fool, not to mention that just looking at the situation at the ghost market today, you can tell that the antique circle is very clique-oriented and xenophobic.
She is always right in her approach and is determined to become a thorn in the eyes of others.
This kind of bargain hunting is okay occasionally, but if it happens too often it will become suspicious.
Su Jianwei already has his own goal for his university major, but since he has this golden finger, he can take another elective course, or even directly choose a second major.
"I think people should be more pragmatic. You can't just rely on luck to make a living."
