Wu Xie, Long Hao, Young Master Hai, and Chen Chengcheng finally arrived at the capital after several days of traveling.
No one knew where Old Mrs. Huo was. They only knew that she was in the antique business, so their first stop was Panjiayuan Antique Market. It was the most popular antique market in the country. They might be able to find out about the Huo family.
"Wu Xie, your classmate might have been cheated today.”
Long Hao turned to look at the eager Young Master Hai and said to Wu Xie with a teasing expression.
"Hahaha! I agree with you!"
Wu Xie's eyes were very sharp. With a glance, he knew that the things these stall owners were shouting were basically fakes. Whoever bought them would know.
...
It was Long Hao's first time in Panjiayuan. Seeing the crowds of tourists in front of him, he had the idea of setting up a shop here.
After walking around, Long Hao and Wu Xie met up again on the street. After a round of conversation, no one had heard of the antique master with the surname Huo.
"Wu Xie, isn't Fatty Wang in Beiping? He's the boss here. We might as well ask him for help.”
Long Hao looked at Wu Xie and suggested.
"Yeah, I haven't seen Fatty for so long. I wonder how he's doing.”
Thinking of Fatty Wang, Wu Xie couldn't help but laugh.
...
When Long Hao, Wu Xie, and Chen Chengcheng found Young Master Hai, they found him haggling with the owner of an antique shop.
"Brother Long, Wu Xie, Cheng Cheng, you're here. Look at this jade hairpin. Isn't it beautiful? The boss insisted on selling it for 2000 yuan.”
Young Master Hai saw Wu Xie and the others come in and raise a jade hairpin that looked very old and exuded a historical charm. He was extremely excited to show off to Long Hao and the other two, as if he had picked up a treasure.
"Grandmasters, are you guys together? This thing is from the Qing Dynasty. It's a jade hairpin that the empress dowager once wore. You won't lose out if you buy it for two thousand yuan. You won't be cheated. I guarantee that it's genuine.”
When the owner of the antique shop saw that Young Master Hai's accomplices were all young, he felt relieved. He continued to brag and didn't look like he was going to lower the price.
"Ding! Exposing the shop owner's lies and slapping his face in the face. Reward: Advanced Antique Appraisal Skill.”
At this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded in Long Hao's mind. He rushed forward and took the jade hairpin from Young Master Hai's hand.
"Boss, are you selling this for 100 yuan? This is obviously a B * stard. If it was something from the Qing Dynasty, I would have done a handstand and pooped.”
Long Hao smiled and waved the jade hairpin in front of the shop owner.
"Cough cough! Isn't 100 yuan too little? You guys can add a little more."
"Boss, do you want me to help you comment on the other antiques?”
Long Hao saw that the boss didn't admit it. He smiled and looked at the other antique collections. The boss was so scared that his face turned green.
"Alright, 100 yuan it is. Consider it a friend!”
"Ding! [Mission completed. Obtained Advanced Antique Appraisal Skill!]”
Young Master Hai was at a loss. Before he could react, he had been slashed from 2,000 dollars to 100 dollars. This wasn't a difference, it was a cut in the waist.
"Boss, there's actually something good in your palace.”
" Blue and white porcelain says that Su Qing's face is rarely seen in the world. There are also scattered iron spots today. It is difficult to distinguish them even in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. The scattered iron spots block the eyes. The glaze is dense to show the true face. The green color is thick and the flow is unstable. The color of the light is real gold.”
"The old object behind you should be the Yuan Porcelain Fish Algae-patterned Rolling Jar, which is priceless!”
As soon as Long Hao finished speaking, Wu Xie and the shop owner were shocked.
"This is Yuan Qinghua? Boss, do you want to buy this?"
Wu Xie's breathing quickened when he heard that. His eyes were fixed on the porcelain jar behind the boss.
"Hahaha! Heroes come from young people. Little brother, you have good eyesight. This is an item passed down in my family. I won't sell it for the time being. This is my name card. When little brother comes to Panjiayuan in the future, you can come here to drink tea.”
The shopkeeper pushed up his glasses and smiled happily. He took out a name card and handed it to Long Hao with both hands.
"Brother Long, you actually know more about antiques than Wu Xie. You're really hidden!”
"Brother Long, are you really from Pan Zi's hometown? Why do I feel like you've been immersed in antiques and cultural relics since you were young?”
Young Master Hai and Chen Chengcheng looked at Long Hao with their mouths agape. They sucked in a breath of cold air and were filled with admiration.
"Cough cough, it was just a lucky guess. Let's go find Fatty Wang.”
Long Hao cupped his hands with a smile, but he was very happy in his heart, especially the way the shop owner looked at him. He wanted to kick him out directly, as if he was worried that if he opened his mouth, he would expose all the fakes in the shop.
******
After leaving the shop, Chen Chengcheng accompanied Young Master Hai to continue shopping while Wu Xie and Long Hao went to Fatty Wang's shop.
When the two of them entered, they saw Fatty Wang discussing business with a client, but it seemed that the discussion had already broken down.
Long Hao and Wu Xie pretended not to know Fatty. Wu Xie even walked over and asked to see the customer's things.
After Wu Xie took a look at the bronze horn, he immediately determined that it was a well-preserved bronze cup from the Shang Dynasty. He accurately stated the information on it and even quoted a price to the customer, claiming that there was room for appreciation.
Fatty Wang was a little unhappy with Wu Xie's offer, but after seeing Wu Xie's eyes, he could only pretend to be very straightforward and bid 300,000 for the bronze horn.
....
"Naive, Brother Long, why are you two here? However, you guys are too good at fooling me. You've fooled me the moment you arrived.”
Fatty Wang was very happy to see Wu Xie and Long Hao, but he was very dissatisfied with the bronze cup in his hand.
"Fatty, be content! This was not a cup. It was a wine vessel of the Western Zhou nobles called a horn. It was worth one million yuan on the market.”
Long Hao sat on the sofa with a smile and looked at Fatty Wang speechlessly.
"What? This thing is worth a million?"
When Fatty Wang found out that the bronze horn was worth one million, he was so excited that he almost went crazy. He left the door and went to invite Wu Xie and Long Hao to a restaurant.
In the mutton restaurant.
Wu Xie told Fatty that the silk book was a fake and asked Fatty to help him see Old Mrs. Huo.
Fatty Wang was indeed a local tyrant. He quickly found out that Old Madam Huo often frequented the New Moon Hotel. There was an auction at the New Moon Hotel in three days.
