The boss was relieved. He thought to himself,'I thought you were deliberately mystifying things, but in the end, you chose this?'! It was no wonder that the boss thought so. Originally, the lowest floor was filled with carved works with clearly marked prices. Wood, stone, shell, root, ice, mud, pottery, and other materials. Rather than calling them antiques, it was more appropriate to call them crafts.
For example, the wood carving that Su Tong had taken a fancy to. The alcoholic paint on the outside was enough to explain the problem. It must be a modern product. This kind of topcoat was cheap, did not require high painting skills, and the paint film was thick. Even under the sun, it was not easy to fade. These advantages exposed the weakness of the entire wood carving, and its value was not high.
"Su Tong, have you thought it through? Are you going to use this wooden carving to compete with my fan?”Xia Mo held the pendant of the fan and swung the fan frame in the air. The owner looked at the fan frame and thought, Hey, it turns out that two idiots who don't know anything about the industry put together. That fan is not even as good as a wood carving. At least it's bigger.
The beautiful shop assistant named Little Lian was worried for Su Tong. Those statues had been placed at the bottom of the shelf for a long time, and very few people asked about them. It seemed that Su Tong was acting on impulse. She secretly hinted to Su Tong with her eyes, and Su Tong smiled back indifferently.
"If you want to buy it, hurry up and pay.”The shop owner was in a hurry to chase them away.
Su Tong ignored him and directly answered Xia Mo's question.""Putting my wood carvings in such a shop wouldn't tarnish the immortals. It's a good thing for me to buy them.”
The shopkeeper was so angry that he was going to humiliate him when he opened his mouth to bargain. However, Su Tong did not say anything more to him. She lowered her head and confirmed the price tag. It was 1200 yuan. She took out her phone and scanned the QR code on the counter to pay.
His actions were done in one go. Seeing that Su Tong and Xia Mo had already stepped out of the shop, the shop owner finally said,""With this level of skill, you still want to play antiques. No matter how much money you have, it won't be enough to pay for it.”
Su Tong was still alright. He had no mood to argue with him after getting the treasure. In fact, he was also feeling uncertain just now. After touching a few rows, he did not find anything good. If he went out just like that, it would really be embarrassing. When he reached the bottom row, he almost gave up. His finger touched the wooden carving, and the purple-gold treasure light instantly flourished. Su Tong was glad that he was squatting with his back facing others. Otherwise, just his shocked expression was enough to let others see something fishy.
It seemed that the topaz calabash in Xia Mo's car had further changed his ability. This was the first time he had seen such a purple-gold color, and the treasure light shone brightly in his eyes.
At this moment, there was no need to haggle. Su Tong wished she could immediately pay the money and leave with the treasure. Therefore, he did not want to pay attention to the shop owner's last sentence.
However, Xia Mo was a young master, so how could he listen to such words? He stopped in his tracks and turned to point at the tip of the shopkeeper's nose."Old brat, can you repeat that for me?”
Then, he raised his head and looked at the shop sign."I'd like to see what kind of god you are. I've already put up with you for a long time after hearing your strange tone…"
It attracted a lot of attention. People from two or three shops nearby also came out to watch the commotion. The shop owner was also a little anxious. He wanted to explain to Xia Mo that it wasn't because of him, but he was afraid that he would lose face when he saw Xiao Lian's pretty face. On second thought, there was no shortage of rich people in this industry. He had to have some connections to be able to stand firm in Chaotian Palace. He calmed himself down and held back his fear.
"Xia Mo, what are you making a ruckus for? Old Gu and I could hear it in the shop.”It was Wang Taichu who walked out of the shop about twenty meters away.
The others didn't say anything. Even before Xia Mo could say anything, the shopkeeper saw Wang Taichu and immediately walked up with a smile."Shopkeeper Wang! What brings you here?"
"Uncle Wang, do you know him?" Xia Mo pointed at the tip of his nose.
"Shopkeeper Wang, you see, this brother is mistaken. I'm not talking about him.”
Wang Taichu immediately looked at Su Tong, who was holding a wooden statue. Since he wasn't targeting Xia Mo, he was obviously targeting Su Tong." Boss Hao, what's wrong with Su Tong?" Tell me if there's anything wrong.”
"..." Boss Hao was speechless. How could a young boy who only wore a few hundred yuan recognize Wang Taichu?
He wasn't familiar with Wang Taichu. Everyone in the antique circle knew that Wang Taichu had a big backer-Gu Deyong. Who didn't want to get to know such a big shot? It was not easy to meet Old Gu, so he asked someone to introduce him to Wang Taichu several times. This person was none other than the owner of the shop ten meters away. At this moment, he was serving Old Gu tea. His surname was also Wang, and he could be considered a relative of Wang Taichu.
"Look, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, didn't it? This little brother bought a wood carving. I had good intentions and wanted to give him some advice. Who knew that the young man would be so arrogant that he would misunderstand.”Boss Hao was a glib talker. He wanted to brush the matter off with a few words. With a fawning smile, he said," Shopkeeper Wang, from what you said just now, Old Gu is also here?"”
"Give me some advice? Are you even worthy?" Su Tong said to Boss Hao.
Boss Hao's face turned purple. He didn't know that he was a troublemaker, even more ruthless than that young master. He couldn't keep his old face."Shopkeeper Wang, these two little brothers don't have good tempers. I really had good intentions. The fan and the wood carving were young and had shallow eyesight, so they made me look bad inside and outside.”
Xia Mo pinched the fan ribs in his hand and Su Tong looked down at the wooden carving in her arms, revealing a strange and helpless smile.
Wang Taichu had seen all kinds of situations. With a few words, he had roughly sorted out the situation. It was not a big deal, so there was no need to stand here and make a fuss." It's just a matter of time. It's nothing." Shopkeeper Hao, we won't delay your business. You can go ahead."”
Then, he called Xia Mo and Su Tong to Old Gu's shop. Boss Hao was not going to miss such an opportunity." No rush, no rush! I've long admired Old Master Gu's name, but I have some misunderstandings with these two young men. If I don't explain, I won't be at ease!”
Xia Mo knew that Wang Taichu would definitely refuse, but he really wanted to teach this annoying Boss Hao a lesson." Sure, you can come if you want."”
Just twenty steps away, the fragrance of tea wafted into his face. On the left side of the door was a pot of rich bamboo, and on the right was an antique fish tank. It was a typical Fengshui decoration.
Four framed calligraphy paintings were hung on the front. They were the Four Gentlemen of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum.
The layout was much more particular than Boss Hao's. At a glance, the quality of the things on the shelf was obviously higher.
In the southeast corner of the counter, there was a two-meter-long tea table. On the natural round stool made of a one-foot-diameter tree stump, two people were sitting leisurely and sipping tea.
One of them was naturally Old Gu, and the other was about the same age as Wang Taichu. He sat on the lower seat and poured tea for Old Gu respectfully.
