Chapter 618 Scam in the Antique Market
The square downstairs of Hengtong Hotel. www. Big question. info
Li Fan and Qin Wei got out of a taxi, and then they entered the room where Qin Wei lived.
The room is an ordinary room, but the condition is pretty good.
"Sit down and I'll get you a glass of water." Qin Wei said with a blushing face.
After saying that, Qin Wei took two water glasses from the bedside table and went into the bathroom, presumably to rinse the water glasses.
Li Fan looked around and saw that there was no sofa or stool. The only place to sit was the bed.
No wonder Qin Wei's face was blushing just now. Li Fan thought about it and sat down on the bed. This is a hotel, not a girl's boudoir, so there should be no worries.
Soon, Qin Wei came out of the bathroom and saw Li Fan sitting on the bed, her face seemed even redder.
Pour half a cup of boiling water into each of the two water glasses and put them on the bedside table. After that, Qin Wei also sat down on the bed.
However, she was a little far away from Li Fan. When she was in the bar before, her whole body was pressed against Li Fan, but now, she was embarrassed to be too close to Li Fan.
Li Fan smiled and asked, "When did you come to Magic City? And what happened to that matter?"
Hearing this, Qin Wei said, "It's been four or five days since I came here. That matter..."
It turns out that the matter is related to Qin Wei's younger brother. To be precise, it is about Qin Wei's younger brother.
Her younger brother is Qin Yun. He is 21 years old this year and has just graduated from college. The young man is in his prime and his heart is as high as the sky. As soon as he graduates, he comes to a big city like Shanghai, vowing to make his own way in this big city. of heaven and earth.
However, it is obviously not an easy task for a 21-year-old young man with no background to break into a world.
After repeatedly hitting the wall, Qin Yun finally chose to work in a company with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan.
A salary of 5,000 yuan is actually not bad for a recent graduate. Even in a place like Shanghai, if you save a little on a daily basis, you can still save some money every month, except for housing, water and electricity bills, and living expenses.
Qin Yun doesn't spend money randomly, but he just wants to break out of the world. Now he only gets 5,000 yuan a month, and he must be very restless inside.
Just a few days ago,
Qin Yun "accidentally met" a man about 30 years old. The two hit it off and chatted very well.
Qin Yun saw that the man looked like a rich man and asked him what he did. The man laughed and said he was a professional Taobao hunter in the antique market.
The words "antique market" and "Taobao" immediately made Qin Yun's eyes widen. He knew that there are always opportunities to make a fortune in the antique market. If you have a good vision and good luck, you can buy something worth tens of thousands for a few hundred yuan. Hundreds of thousands of things, that's nothing new.
He also dreamed that one day he could find good things at low prices in the antique market.
Now, after hearing that the other party said that he was a professional Taobao hunter in the antique market, Qin Yun could not remain calm, so he asked the other party to take him to the antique market to see more.
The man refused at first, but then after Qin Yun's repeated requests, he finally agreed, saying that he indeed planned to go to the antique market today, so he would take Qin Yun with him.
In this way, the two of them arrived at the most famous antique street in Shanghai.
While the two were strolling around in the antique market, the man told Qin Yun some basic knowledge on identifying the authenticity of antiques, as well as the value judgment of different antiques, bidding and bargaining techniques, etc.
What always impressed Qin Yun was that he was so smitten. With this ability, it would be difficult not to get rich!
While he was wandering around, the man's eyes suddenly lit up and he walked quickly towards a shop on the roadside, seemingly very excited.
Qin Yun's heart also jumped violently, and he thought to himself: "Did I find something good?" He also hurriedly followed.
When he entered the store, the man had already calmed down. He walked around the store casually, and then he picked up a vase-shaped porcelain to inspect it casually.
Qin Yun admired the man's ability to pretend to be calm.
Finally, after some haggling, the man bought the bottle for 20,000 yuan.
After buying the bottle, the man stopped wandering around and went straight out of the antique market.
As soon as he came out of the antique market, the man became very excited and said that Qin Yun was his lucky general. He had not found such a treasure for a long time.
Seeing the man being so excited, Qin Yun became excited himself and asked the man directly what kind of treasure this bottle was.
After the man was excited for a while, he told him because Qin Yun was his lucky general.
It is said that this bottle is a genuine blue and white porcelain from the late Ming Dynasty and the early Yuan Dynasty. Although it is not a treasure, it is not low in value. If it is auctioned in the auction market, it will fetch a low price of at least 5 million, and the final transaction price can easily exceed 10 million.
Later, the man also said that porcelain is a kind of antique that is very difficult to distinguish between authenticity. Many people will think that it is a high imitation, and the boss obviously thinks so too.
But he was able to tell that it was the real thing and not a high imitation. Qin Yun was also asked to look at this and say some weird and professional words.
Qin Yun was naturally confused when he heard what he said, but he felt that the man was very powerful and had no doubts about what he said.
20,000 yuan could easily turn into millions or tens of millions in minutes, which made Qin Yun extremely envious. He stared at the blue and white porcelain vase in the man's hand with a fiery look.
At this time, the man answered a phone call. After hanging up, he looked very anxious and told Qin Yun that he was in a hurry and had to rush over immediately, but it was not convenient to bring the blue and white porcelain vase with him.
Because he trusted Qin Yun, he entrusted Qin Yun to take care of it, and he would come back to pick it up after he finished. When the blue and white porcelain vase is auctioned, he is willing to pay 100,000 yuan to thank Qin Yun.
Qin Yun agreed without thinking too much.
However, Qin Yun did not see the man come back to pick it up after waiting for several hours, so he called the man. The man said on the phone that things were more troublesome than expected and that he would not be able to come back for a while, so he asked Qin Yun to take the blue and white porcelain vase home first.
Qin Yun had no choice but to take the blue and white porcelain vase home.
However, after arriving home, tragedy happened.
Qin Yun opened the carton containing the blue and white porcelain vase, and the blue and white porcelain vase broke!
Qin Yun was really surprised. He was very sure that he was extra careful on the way back because he was afraid of breaking the bottle, but unexpectedly it still broke.
After Qin Yun panicked for a while, he calmed down a little. If it was broken, he would pay the man 20,000 yuan.
Although he does not have 20,000 yuan now, his family is quite well-off. 20,000 yuan is nothing. He can find any reason and borrow 20,000 yuan from his family easily.
So, Qin Yun honestly called the man and said that the blue and white porcelain vase was broken and he was willing to pay for it.
However, when the man heard that the bottle was broken, his attitude immediately changed. He said that of course the bottle would be compensated, but not based on his purchase price, but based on the market price of blue and white porcelain, with a minimum of 5 million.
This is because Qin Yun is his general, otherwise it would be much more expensive.
Finally, he said that he had someone on the road, and if Qin Yun did not pay compensation, he would either go to jail or lose his arms and legs.
Now Qin Yun was completely panicked...
…
Li Fan, who finally understood the cause of the matter, was quite speechless. He looked at Qin Wei and said, "Does your brother have an IQ problem? This is obviously a scam from beginning to end."
Qin Wei glared at Li Fan, but soon sighed again, lowered her head, and said softly: "I also think he has some problems with his IQ."
