Apparently, there was a problem about price between Mr. Jean Armand and the couple. Yang Jing could only hear the argument getting louder and louder.
It was obvious that the old man was not a good person, and the well-dressed couple were probably a pair of stingy people, otherwise they would not have haggled for more than 20 minutes over a mere hundred euros.
Fortunately, Yang Jing was patient enough, and in this shop one could see many antique clocks that had never been seen before, so Yang Jing did not just leave.
However, no matter how good one's patience is, one cannot stand being ignored like this, not to mention that Yang Jing really wants to buy a pair of watches.
So Yang Jing finally couldn't help but said loudly: "Mr. Armand, can you put aside the 8,000 euro business for now and pay attention to my 80,000 euro business?"
As soon as he said this, the old man turned his head, but he glared at Yang Jing.
"What are you fussing about? Can't you see we're busy here? And 80,000 euros? Would you be worth 80,000 euros if I sold you?"
Although the old man didn't say anything, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Yang Jing scratched his head in annoyance, thinking: "What's wrong with this society? Why doesn't anyone believe me when I tell the truth?"
But if you ask Yang Jing to turn around and leave at this time, Yang Jing will definitely not do it!
Damn it, I wanted to show off and slap someone in the face, but I ended up being looked down upon! No, if I don’t slap him back today, I won’t leave no matter what!
When intellectuals get stuck in a dead end, it can be scary sometimes. For example, Yang Jing now...
Yang Jing tilted his head and said loudly: "Mr. Armand, if you don't come over now, I won't buy the pair of Audemars Piguet Millennium mechanical watches I like! Besides, business is based on first come first served. I came first, okay?"
These words made Armand, who had just turned his head away, stunned, and then he turned his head again.
But before the old man could say anything, the couple unexpectedly quit.
Perhaps they were a little angry because of the chatter with the old man just now, and as a result of Yang Jing's intervention, the anger that the couple had just suppressed burst out.
The couple came over angrily holding the antique clock. The woman was more sensible and put the antique clock on the cabinet. The man started to scold Yang Jing.
"@#¥%..." It was a pity that the guy spoke French and Yang Jing couldn't understand.
But even if I didn't understand, I could tell from the expression on the man's face that he obviously didn't say anything nice.
Yang Jing has always ignored people who look good on the outside but are actually trash on the inside.
Glancing at the man with sidelong glances, Yang Jing raised the left corner of his mouth slightly, and turned his head to pat the couple on the back of his head.
The old man followed closely and Yang Jing pointed at the pair of watches in the cabinet and said, "Please take out these two watches for me to see."
The old man still seemed to not believe that Yang Jing could afford these two watches, and the doubts were clearly visible on his face.
After being ignored, the couple seemed to get even angrier and they started yelling at the old man together.
Yang Jing was annoyed by the noise and turned around and yelled, "Kill him!"
Thanks to the global popularity of Hollywood movies, several English words are now known to people all over the world, such as "choke to death", "make a fuss", "bitch", "fake", and of course, "kill him, ah, pu", which means "shut up", is also known to people all over the world.
Maybe they didn't expect Yang Jing to say such a thing, the couple were stunned for a moment, and the old man was also stunned.
Yang Jing tapped the glass case impatiently with his fingers and said, "Mr. Armand, please take out two watches for me to see. Here, two Audemars Piguet Millennium watches, one for men and one for women."
At this moment, Yang Jing seemed to be full of the spirit of a cuckold. The old man actually nodded, took out the key to open the lock on the glass cabinet, and then carefully took out the two watches that Yang Jing ordered.
However, Yang Jing did not reach out to take the two watches, but gestured to the old man to put them on the glass counter.
This is the rule in the domestic antique world.
People who know the business know that if you want to get your hands on a certain cultural relic, you should never take it directly from someone else. Also, after you have looked at the item, you should not return it directly to the person who bought it. You must first put the item in a stable place before the next person can take it over.
Why do we do this? It’s simple, to avoid “touching porcelain”.
Someone hands you a plate and you foolishly try to take it. Just when the plate is about to reach your hand, the person lets go and the plate falls to the ground and shatters into pieces with a "bang".
Well, people will say that you didn’t hold it properly, and this plate is a fine product from the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty Kangxi and Qianlong periods, and one plate is worth a million!
How do you refute it? You can't explain it clearly even if you have a lot of mouth. People say that you didn't hold the plate properly and dropped it. You have no idea what to do.
If this yellow mud falls into your crotch, it will become shit if it’s not shit!
Therefore, in order to avoid such situations, knowledgeable people will not accept items directly from others.
This is France, a place where he is unfamiliar with, and that old man is obviously not a good person. Yang Jing certainly will not allow such a situation to happen to him.
Seeing Yang Jing's gesture, the old man carefully placed two boxes containing watches on the counter, and said to Yang Jing: "Young man, these two watches cost more than 80,000 euros in total, you have to be careful." As he said that, the old man turned his head and looked at the surveillance cameras hanging in the corners of the wall, meaning that you'd better be honest, because everything here is under surveillance.
The old man's action made Yang Jing speechless.
If you're really worried that someone might snatch your watch and run away, why would you take it out? It's much safer to lock it in a cabinet made of bulletproof glass!
To use an old Chinese saying, this is a typical case of "being a bully and also building a saintly archway"!
Yang Jing ignored the old man and carefully took out a men's watch. He weighed it first, then looked at the workmanship carefully. After nodding slightly, he touched the watch with his left hand and immediately activated his "identification skill".
“Audemars Piguet 18K rose gold men’s automatic mechanical watch, 2012, Audemars Piguet Watch Factory, Switzerland, Andy Holland.”
As soon as he saw the identification result, Yang Jing was immediately relieved.
The watches here are so cheap that Yang Jing actually thought they were high-end imitations. If he spent tens of thousands of euros on a high-end imitation watch, it would be a joke.
However, by weighing it and looking at the workmanship just now, Yang Jing has basically ruled out the possibility that this watch is a high imitation. Now Shengjie has given a real identification result, confirming that this watch is from the Swiss Audemars Piguet watch factory, and even the name of the watchmaker is listed, which basically means that there is no problem with the watch.
