Sheng Anning noticed him, and Zhou Shixun also noticed him.
The main thing was that the sack on the man's back was a bit too big, and the things inside were angular and looked very heavy, weighing the man's back down like a bow.
Zhou Shixun put Momo down and originally planned to walk slowly with Momo so that he could better observe where the man would set up his stall and what he was selling.
As a result, Momo stood on the ground, motionless, holding the malt sugar in his hand and eating it seriously, with no intention of leaving at all.
Instead, it gave Sheng An Ning and Zhou Shixun a chance.
Sheng An Ning squatted down, stretched out her hand to hold Mo Mo's arm, and said with a smile: "Look, our Mo Mo has become a little cat from eating so much."
Momo pursed her lips and looked at her mother with sparkling eyes.
From the outside, it looks like the child doesn't want to leave and the mother is coaxing the child.
Zhou Shixun stood aside, looking down at the mother and son, and occasionally glanced at the man who was still wandering nearby. The man finally chose a more spacious place.
He put down the sack, took out a bed sheet from his body, shook it out and spread it on the ground, then squatted on the ground, took out a piece of mud-covered object that could not be seen from a distance from the sack and placed it on the bed sheet, and then took out several stones of different sizes from the sack.
Two of them were the same rock that Sheng Mingyuan bought, and one was a jade artifact that looked like it had just been dug out of the mud.
Sheng An Ning waited until the other party had finished laying out everything and the sacks were folded before she stood up and took Mo Mo's hand: "Shall we go home now?"
When she walked, Mo Mo followed her, his attention still on his maltose.
Walking to the man's stall, Sheng An Ning exclaimed, and said in a somewhat exaggerated manner: "Changsuo, look, these things look pretty good. Are they antiques? Let's take a look?"
Zhou Shixun turned his face away, suppressed the smile in his eyes, and turned back with a serious expression: "Go home quickly, there is nothing to see."
Sheng An Ning sighed inwardly, he was quite cooperative with her, but his acting was obviously much more natural and smoother than hers.
He snorted, took Momo over and squatted in front of the stall, looking at the things on the bed sheet very seriously, looking very curious.
When the man saw someone coming, a young couple with a child, he didn't rush to do business, but observed whether they were people who could buy things.
Seeing that Sheng An Ning was very interested, although the husband did not squat down to watch with her, he was not impatient and urged his wife to go. Looking at his young and beautiful wife with a fair and delicate face, he could feel that the wife was the one who had the final say at home.
After the man finished his analysis, he instantly became enthusiastic and said with a smile: "These are all good things. They will definitely be valuable if you keep them at home. You won't be fooled if you buy any of them."
Sheng An Ning looked serious: "Really? It looks like there's dirt on it. Why didn't you wash it when it's so dirty? I can't even tell what it looks like."
The man sighed, "Lady, you don't understand at first glance. These are just dug out of the ground. What is the closest place to Beijing?"
Sheng An Ning looked confused. She really didn't understand where Beijing was closest to. The main reason was that the man's description was too general.
While I was confused, I took a good look at the man opposite me. He looked to be about fifty years old, with high brow bones, deep eye sockets, wrinkles around the corners of his eyes, and dark and rough skin.
He has an honest look and sincere eyes, which easily gives people the illusion of trust and sympathy.
The man thought Sheng An Ning couldn't guess it, and smiled innocently: "Imperial tombs, there are imperial tombs all around Beijing, do you think these things are good?"
Sheng Anning was surprised: "You mean where do these things come from?"
The man nodded. "It's OK as long as you know it. Let's not say it out loud. You can take a look and see if there is anything you like. You can take it back to enjoy it. It can also be passed down to your children as an heirloom and passed down from generation to generation."
Sheng An Ning looked very interested as he looked at them one by one. The jade pieces were roughly made and covered with mud, making them look very old.
He pointed at one at random: "How much is this?"
The man held up a finger and shook it to gesture.
Sheng An Ning guessed hesitantly: "Ten dollars?"
The man shook his head: "One hundred yuan, ten yuan, how many you have? I'll take them. These things are unique. Do you know what a unique piece is? If you sell this one, it's gone."
"There is only one of these in the world. Look at the bottom, there is Emperor Qianlong's seal."
Sheng An Ning was complaining furiously in her heart, this liar was really good at making up stories, no wonder some people would fall for it, the main reason was that this guy looked honest enough, every word he said was not slick like a businessman, but very sincere.
Zhou Shixun squatted down at this moment and pointed at an inconspicuous rock in the corner: "How much is this? Do you have a bigger one?"
When the man saw Zhou Shixun asking about the stone, his tone was somewhat disappointed: "That is not valuable, one small piece and two large pieces, how big do you want?"
Zhou Shixun gestured to Momo's height and said, "We need a few pieces this big, like making a rockery in the yard."
The man hesitated: "It's this big. There are some that big. I didn't bring them today. This thing is very heavy."
Zhou Shixun asked again: "How much does such a big piece cost?"
The man thought for a long time, stretched out his hand, and said unconfidently: "Five dollars, do you think five dollars is okay? After all, it's so heavy, if it costs several dollars, I have to find a car to haul it here, and I have to pay for the fare."
Sheng Anning frowned: "Five dollars is a bit expensive, we need at least seven or eight dollars, that's forty dollars, it's too expensive, it's just a broken stone."
The man was also embarrassed: "It's mainly too heavy. It costs three dollars to haul it here, and I don't make money. And you see, this stone of mine is a living stone formed after a volcanic eruption. It can grow in water. It's not the kind of stone you pick up from the mountains. It's hard to find."
Sheng An Ning just watched him talking nonsense seriously.
After he finished speaking, he said, "If you can save one dollar, I will buy another jade tripod. I think this jade tripod is pretty good."
When the man heard this, he was very satisfied: "You really have a good eye. This jade tripod is from the Qianlong period. It is said to be a decoration in the imperial study."
Sheng An Ning was very curious. How could someone believe such a clumsy lie? How easy could they be to deceive?
She also pretended to believe it: "Really?"
Turning his head to look at Zhou Shixun, "Changsuo, let's buy this one. You see, I have a good eye. I think this one is the best at first glance."
The man also took the opportunity to persuade her: "Your wife has good taste. This is the only one. You won't be able to have it again if you want it again. This is definitely worth a hundred dollars."
Sheng An Ning also looked at Zhou Shixun eagerly.
Zhou Shixun frowned and thought for a while before slowly nodding: "Then buy it."
