Chapter 9 Antique Market
Around her neck, a platinum chain and a jade pendant the size of a quail egg.
The gold earrings were also quite big. She looked like a woman who had become rich overnight and was afraid that others didn't know she was rich.
But as he watched, Gu Ning couldn't help but laugh and burst out laughing.
Seeing this, the woman looked unhappy and angrily asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at you! Since you are so rich, why are you still wearing a fake jade bracelet! And that fake jade pendant." Gu Ning exposed bluntly.
Yes, the jade bracelet on the woman’s wrist and the jade pendant on her neck were fake. She originally wanted to absorb the spiritual energy from the other party’s jade bracelet and jade pendant, but she didn’t expect that they were actually fake.
As for gold items, she didn't understand much, so she didn't know whether they were real or not, but the jade ring in her hand was real.
Although she knew that this woman definitely didn't know that this thing was fake, it didn't stop her from exposing it in order to avenge the humiliation she had just suffered.
Women! Few are not petty. Gu Ning admitted that she was not generous, so she would never endure the anger she did not want to endure.
"What did you say?" The woman became angry upon hearing this. It was not because the truth was exposed, but because she felt that the other party deliberately said that her things were fake, causing misunderstanding and embarrassing her.
This thing was given to her by her husband. Her husband is so rich, how could he give her a fake one? And the other party is a poor girl, what does she know?
"Humph! If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Poor people are poor people. It's useless to hate the rich."
Even though she was called poor, Gu Ning was not angry, because she was poor anyway!
"Believe it or not, every store has an appraiser. If you want, you can go for an appraisal. I have something else to do, so I can't keep you company." Gu Ning kindly reminded, then turned and left.
“You…” The woman didn’t want to let Gu Ning off so easily and wanted to find fault, but was stopped by the woman next to her: “Sister Jin, you are lowering your status by arguing with a poor girl.”
These words immediately reminded the woman called Sister Jin. She always felt that she was of noble status and she paid great attention to her image as a lady.
Suddenly, Sister Jin put on an unattainable look, looked at Gu Ningyuan's back, and said disdainfully: "Humph! I won't bother with her!"
After saying that, he continued to look at jade articles.
But for some reason, she couldn't suppress what Gu Ning had just said in her heart. She always wanted to identify the jade bracelet and jade pendant that Gu Ning said were fake.
Here, Shao Feifei stayed at the door of the store and did not leave, because she wanted to see what Gu Ning was going to do, and she naturally saw the situation in the store.
Seeing Gu Ning coming out, Shao Feifei couldn't help but sneer again: "Ha! Some people can't afford it, and they even hate the rich. Tsk tsk."
"If you can afford it, then buy it!" Gu Ning said indifferently.
"you······"
Unexpectedly, these words touched Shao Feifei's sore spot, and her face became extremely ugly.
Although Shao Feifei was born into a wealthy family with assets of tens of millions, this does not mean that she can afford it!
Any one of these jewels costs tens of thousands of dollars. Her monthly pocket money is only two or three thousand yuan, and she spends a lot, so where would she get the money to buy them?
It's just that her birthday is coming soon, and she wants to see if there is any jewelry she likes so that her mother can buy it for her as a birthday present.
Without paying any more attention to Shao Feifei, Gu Ning just left.
Although Shao Feifei was unwilling, she couldn't find any way to refute Gu Ning's words.
When Shao Feifei's cousin Shao Xue saw that Shao Feifei was angry, she dared not make a sound, for fear of becoming her punching bag. After all, this was not the first or second time.
If it weren't for the fact that Shao Feifei's family was well-off and her family depended on Shao Feifei in many ways, she wouldn't have been willing to please her so humbly!
After leaving the jewelry store, Gu Ning went directly to the antique market.
It takes half an hour by bus from the city center to the antique market, and it is around three in the afternoon when we arrive at the antique market.
The antique market, also known as the second-hand goods market, has the word "old" in it, and only old objects can be called antiques. So when many people talk about the authenticity of antiques, they also like to call them old objects.
Antiques have been popular for many years, so there are still a lot of people on Antique Street, but most of them are middle-aged men and old men.
There weren't many young people, and there were even fewer students like Gu Ning's age, and even fewer girls. There were still some young people, but they either came with adults or just to watch the fun.
So wherever Gu Ning passed by, no vendors shouted at her.
On both sides of the street, street vendors are more conspicuous than shops, but among the hundreds of stalls and tens of thousands of items, it is already very good if one or two are authentic. And to find one or two authentic items among so many counterfeits is, in two words, very difficult.
Antiques and jade are both high-risk investments. The industry's rule is "no counterfeiting in the antique market" and that "payment equals delivery." Once purchased, no returns are allowed.
If you are lucky enough to find a bargain, you can become rich overnight. If you buy the wrong one, you are doomed to lose everything. Some people even lose their fortunes.
Gu Ning browsed very slowly because she got tired after using Jade Eyes for a short time and had to take a break before she could look again.
Along the way, Gu Ning didn't find any authentic products and was very disappointed.
Yes, antiques have been popular for many years, and most of the real items have been collected. How could she find a bargain?
It seems that her idea of making money from antiques was too naive.
There are a lot of rough materials for gambling stones, but the main sources and markets are in Myanmar and Y Province, and there are few in other cities. Even if there are, I am afraid that most of them are inferior products that have been selected, and the green rate is very low.
Of course, even gods cannot judge jade, and a bad appearance does not mean that the inside is bad.
However, not to mention that City F is very far from Myanmar, Gu Ning cannot go there at the moment. Even if he is not worried about the long journey, he does not have the travel expenses if he wants to go!
Although the plane ticket only costs a few thousand dollars, this few thousand dollars is a considerable amount of money for Gu Man and her daughter!
The fact that she had superpowers must not be revealed, even to Gu Man, so even if she wanted to go, she had no reason to go.
Although Gu Ning had no hope of finding jade rough materials in F City, she would still go and ask. It would be even better if there were some. Even if most of them were waste materials or low-quality jade and jadeite, it was still a small amount of money! She would not be disgusted.
Just as Gu Ning was about to turn around and leave, his eyes were attracted by an object in an inconspicuous corner of the stall.
It was a bracelet made of twelve toe-sized porcelain pieces. It was covered in stains, grey and ugly in appearance, but Gu Ning could see a faint white mist through it.
