The person who spoke behind the two was an elderly man with a crew cut, dressed in a Tang suit, who looked like a 'veteran player'.
The other person's gaze was fixed on the long-necked bottle that Xu Lu was about to put into the bag.
Hearing the old man's words, Reba was still in a daze, her expression somewhat bewildered.
Xu Lu smiled, pointed to an open space nearby, and said:
"Of course, let's look over here, so as not to affect the boss's business!"
"Yes, yes!"
Seeing that Xu Lu did not refuse, the old man in the Tang suit secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed him to an open space.
The old man didn't reach out his hand until Xu Lu put the bottle down. This small detail shows that the old man was quite knowledgeable.
Antiques are different from other things, especially porcelain, which is basically fragile and will break if dropped.
Therefore, a knowledgeable person would never accept an item directly from another person, to avoid causing a dispute later.
The old man kept examining the small bottle in his hand, but Xu Lu was in no hurry and waited quietly to the side.
Meanwhile, in the live stream, fans couldn't help but start discussing:
[No way, I feel like I've seen this scene in some TV drama before. Could that old man have his eye on our anchor's bottle?]
[Wait, could it be that the streamer had incredible luck this time and really snagged a bargain?]
[It's hard to say. If the streamer really does snag a bargain, then he's incredibly lucky, and everyone will be green with envy!]
[It's just a small bottle, why is that old man staring at it for so long? Even the streamer hasn't watched it for this long!]
"Ahem, you don't understand, do you? The streamer is a bit naive, so he buys whatever he likes."
The old man is a true connoisseur; he would naturally be much more meticulous when handling this bottle, unless he can be certain it's genuine...
...
Having regained her senses, Dilraba was now watching the discussions in the live stream.
If she hadn't known that she came out with Xu Lu, and that the other party didn't have time to make arrangements, she might have thought that the scene in front of her was an act.
"Could it be that Xu Lu is really that lucky, actually buying a real antique?"
But he spent 40,000 yuan to buy it. I wonder if this old man will buy it, and how much he'll offer?
In fact, what Dilraba is curious about is also the question that the viewers in the live broadcast room are most concerned about.
Fortunately, after waiting for about ten minutes, and after the old man had examined the bottle inside and out, top to bottom, the question was finally answered.
The old man gently placed the bottle on the ground, nodded to Xu Lu, and said:
"Young man, I can tell you just bought this bottle. I know this area very well, and I estimate you bought it for no more than 50,000..."
As he spoke, the old man observed the changes in Xu Lu's expression.
But what left the old man somewhat helpless was...
He couldn't detect any change in the young man's expression, so he naturally couldn't guess what the young man was thinking.
Fortunately, the old man was no ordinary person, and he still spoke with great confidence:
"Alright, I won't let you lose out. I'll pay you 100,000 yuan for this bottle..."
The old man's words surprised the other two people present, besides Xu Lu.
Reba originally thought that Xu Lu had been ripped off by the stall owner for spending 40,000 yuan on the bottle.
But then she heard the old man say he was willing to spend 100,000 yuan to buy it.
In other words, Xu Lu wasn't scammed at all; on the contrary, he made a profit!
Thinking of this, Reba sighed inwardly:
"This guy is incredibly lucky. He just bought this bottle and he can make 60,000 yuan in profit in one go."
The person who was equally surprised was naturally the stall owner who had just sold the bottle to Xu Lu.
The other party originally thought that selling the bottle to this young upstart for 40,000 yuan would be a huge profit, but who knew that less than five minutes later, someone else offered 100,000 yuan to buy the bottle.
In just a few minutes, 60,000 yuan was gone.
Thinking about this, the stall owner felt extremely depressed:
"Damn it, why am I so unlucky? I should never have sold it to this kid. Damn, I've lost a lot of money today!"
The two people present were extremely surprised.
The viewers in the live stream weren't much better off either:
[Holy crap, this streamer is amazing! He bought a bottle for 40,000 and immediately sold it for 100,000. That's way better than painting!]
[Wow, wow, I have to say this streamer is incredibly lucky. Even a blind cat can stumble upon a dead mouse...]
Look at that vendor over there selling bottles to the livestreamer; he's probably kicking himself right now!
[Who would have thought? I just thought the streamer had been scammed out of 40,000 yuan, but it turns out someone offered 100,000.]
...
[Hey, don't you guys think this old man looks familiar? I feel like I've seen him on some antique appraisal show.]
Wow, I didn't even realize it until you mentioned it! This is Mr. Li, the famous treasure appraisal show host.
[It turns out to be Teacher Li. I didn't expect him to take a liking to the bottle in the streamer's hand. Then the bottle must be genuine.]
Does this mean that the bottle's true value is over 100,000?
Think about it: if an ordinary person who is unsure of the situation were to spend 100,000 yuan, they might be gambling on it.
But in the hands of an expert like Teacher Li, someone offering 100,000 means the bottle is definitely worth more than 100,000!
[That's true! I wonder if the streamer could raise the price a bit; we can't sell it at a loss!]
...
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xu Lu frowned slightly and shook his head, saying:
