Chapter 93 Seal
Xu Youyou sat in the car, looking at the dark sky, yawning one after another.
Since she became rich, she has had a regular schedule and rarely gets up at three in the morning.
"Boss, since you are sleepy, just take a nap first. I will call you when the time comes." Xu Fang, who was driving, said softly.
Xu Youyou shook her head and rubbed her face vigorously: "It's okay, I can't sleep now even if I really want to."
The car was driving steadily on the city streets in the early morning, and the surroundings were so quiet that it seemed like an uninhabited area.
Xu Youyou paid for her momentary impulse and walked into the antique morning market at the opening time.
The antique morning market is also known as the ghost market. It opens at four in the morning and closes before noon. There are obviously many people who love antiques. At four in the morning, there are quite a few people inside.
As soon as she entered the door, Xu Youyou couldn't help but frowning. The smell of smoke was really unpleasant. Xu Fang immediately took out a mask from her bag and handed it to Xu Youyou.
"Beauty, if I wasn't ugly, I would almost suspect that you were chasing me." Triangle Eyes joked with a smile.
Xu Youyou didn't expect that she would meet Triangle Eyes again just after entering the door.
Xu Youyou took a look at his stall. The quality of the goods was obviously higher than when he had set up a stall on Antique Street. All the obviously fake goods were gone, and the remaining items all looked genuine. If he met someone who was not well-trained, he might really be cheated.
At this time, a young man in his early twenties squatted next to Triangle Eyes' stall and picked up a white square plate.
Triangle Eyes was busy with business and didn't care about Xu Youyou anymore. He said to the young man, "You have good eyes. You should be able to tell that this is a plate from Ding Kiln."
Xu Youyou took a look from the side and saw the young man turning over the white square plate. On the back of the plate, there was a slightly sloppy word "official" written.
The young man looked at it carefully for a long time, then took out the picture on his mobile phone and compared it for a long time, as if he had made some kind of decision, and asked, "How much?"
"One million." Triangle Eyes opened his mouth.
The young man was confused: "It's too expensive, make it cheaper."
"Since you like it, you must be a connoisseur of value. You can tell that this thing of mine is real. The price is not expensive." said Triangle Eyes.
The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Five hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, I'll buy it."
The two of them went back and forth, and after some bargaining, the final transaction price was set at 650,000.
It was not until the young man left that Xu Youyou spoke up, "Boss, if you have such talent, why do you have to set up a stall in Antique Street? It must be so hard to go out in the wind and rain."
Triangle Eyes smiled awkwardly and said, "Beauty, some things are seen but not spoken. We old guys have been busy for most of our lives, but in fact, we are paying for the tuition we paid in the early years. New young people who have just entered the industry also need to learn a few lessons before they grow up, right?"
Xu Youyou was just watching coldly. The young man was dressed like a rich man, and the car keys in his hand showed that his car was worth millions.
This is a man who is not short of money.
Otherwise, she would definitely speak out to stop the other party.
Triangle Eyes seemed to be testing her, and said, "Beautiful lady, what did you figure out from that Ding kiln square plate just now?"
Xu Youyou said casually: "It's half true and half false. The bottom of the plate is from Ding Kiln, and the rest...it depends on personal opinion."
Triangle Eyes laughed loudly upon hearing this and gave Xu Youyou a thumbs up: "You have really sharp eyes."
The so-called Ding kiln square plate just now, the base plate is indeed produced by Ding kiln, but the body of the plate was patched together by later generations around the fragments of the base plate. The value of such a square plate is at most tens of thousands.
Xu Youyou said: "People who don't have a dirty heart really can't do this job."
The man with the triangular eyes smiled and said, "Beauty, the antique business has always been like this. Once you buy something, you cannot return or exchange it. It depends on your eyesight. If you have a good eyesight, you can find a big bargain and make a fortune. If you have a bad eyesight..."
Triangle Eyes suddenly stopped and his eyes widened.
"Beautiful lady, you bought a blue and white plate from me a few days ago. You have such a good eye, it is impossible that you made a bad purchase. Now that I think about it, there must be something wrong with the blue and white plate. Can you give me a definite answer so that I can die with a clear conscience?"
Xu Youyou said: "Although the plate is new, it is indeed a product of the Guangxu period official kiln. However, Guangxu porcelain is not valuable, so it was only sold for 30,000."
Triangle Eyes slapped his thigh when he heard this: "I lost money, I lost a lot again, 30,000 yuan just flew away!"
Xu Youyou was about to leave.
Triangle Eyes suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
Xu Youyou didn't understand.
Triangle Eyes lowered his voice and said, "I still remember the first time I met you, you bought a Doucai cup at my stall, and you bought the same one from Little Yellow Hair. I buy my own goods from the wholesale market, so I know it well. But the Doucai cup that was sold at a sky-high price at an auction in Shanghai some time ago, is it the one that Little Yellow Hair has..."
Xu Youyou didn't expect him to be so perceptive, but she wouldn't respond. She smiled and said, "You're really good at thinking. If I really bought such a large item, how could I still show off in front of your stall?"
Triangle Eyes also laughed, but whether he believed what Xu Youyou said or not, only he himself knew.
Xu Youyou continued to stroll around as if nothing had happened. She was very good at identifying porcelain, but she seemed like an amateur when it came to other things.
She would not spend money to buy things she did not understand. After walking around the antique morning market, she did see a lot of good porcelains of genuine value. Of course, the prices were also real, and there was basically no room for finding a bargain.
[The loot-picking mission has been started, please arrive at the target location as soon as possible. 】
Xu Youyou's eyes lit up and she rushed towards the target location with empty hands.
"Handsome man, this brush was passed down from our ancestors. I'll sell it to you for five hundred thousand. It's not expensive."
The items on this stall were in a disorganized state, with copper coins, porcelain, seals, books... almost all kinds of antiques. The stall owner was trying hard to sell a black pen washer in his hand.
The man who bought the pen washer was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was holding the pen washer and looking at it left and right, with a conflicted look on his face.
Xu Youyou took a casual look and couldn't see much. She was relieved when she saw that the system did not point to the pen wash they were trading.
She squatted down like an ordinary customer and looked carefully at the pile of stamps in front of the stall.
All the stamps on this stall were casually placed in a large iron box, which was dirty inside. If it weren't for the system's instructions, Xu Youyou probably wouldn't touch the box.
She picked up one to look at, then put it down and picked up another to look at. She looked like she was just strolling around. The stall owner didn't really bother to greet her, but just glanced at her occasionally.
Xu Youyou selected four seals, held them in her hand and examined them carefully before asking the stall owner, "How much are these?"
