Chapter 288: Can't laugh or cry

Of course, the word "perfect" in Jia Sidao's words is somewhat flattering.

After all, in terms of the style of "Kiln and Colors" of Jun porcelain, the Jun porcelain pieces collected by Mr. Xu are the best among Jun porcelain fragments. It is already extremely rare to place the broken porcelain pieces of various colors together. If you want to combine them perfectly and seamlessly, it is a bit difficult.

If the layout of the entire background is very grand, it is easier to say. However, as for the small four-panel screen in front of you, it is really difficult to achieve perfection!

However, even so, what Jia Sidao said is not without certain reasons. What's more, Jia Sidao's current situation is being tested by experts. It is still necessary to say something "flattering".

Sure enough, just as Jia Sidao finished speaking, Mr. Xu on the other end took the lead in praise and said, "Okay! Very good! Xiao Jia's ability is good. The analysis makes sense. However,..." Mr. Xu hesitated for a moment, as if he was not used to Jia Sidao's appreciation of his works so much. "But, my friend, I still feel ashamed of the old man for admiring this four-screen for such a good time."

I think so, those who can sit here are the owners of antique street shops. No matter how bad it is, A San and Jia Sidao. Jia Sidao is preparing to open a shop by himself. Judging from the current test situation, it will be a matter of time before Jia Sidao can enter their circle. And A San, because of Mr. Wei, Mr. Xu, can't he treat him as an outsider, right?

In this way, thinking about what Mr. Xu had proposed specifically before, Jia Sidao was a little boasting when he targeted such a four-panel screen that Mr. Xu handled.

Fortunately, Jia Sidao's appreciation is very appropriate, and the sentences stated do not have any special obvious flattery. No wonder Mr. Xu even called Jia Sidao from "Xiao Jia" to "Xiaoyou". This undoubtedly shows that as far as Xu's personal meaning is concerned, he has accepted Jia Sidao's entry into their circle.

Although Mr. Xu's identity is just the boss of "Qianmoxiang", he is not a professional in the antique industry, nor does he open an antique shop on the main antique street, Mr. Xu's connections are still very good. Otherwise, the people in front of him would not have chosen the meeting place of Jia Sidao this time to test Jia Sidao's gathering.

Therefore, when he heard Mr. Xu's name to Jia Jia Sidao, Jia Sidao was a little confused and unconscious. However, A San's eyes lit up and subconsciously touched Jia Sidao's elbow, with a hint of joy in his eyes.

The other bosses next to him naturally looked at Jia Sidao happily, then took a sip of tea. Suddenly, the tense atmosphere deliberately created by Jia Sidao quickly faded.

"Speaking of this, the preciousness of this Jun porcelain is that it is difficult to fire!" Zhou Fugui made a fuss at this time, perhaps because he wanted to explain something. "Everyone knows that the 'kiln transformation' thing is half artificial, half natural. It contains the kiln workers' skills, experience and mastery of the heat, and also has many accidental factors. Therefore, kiln workers often say 'Jun is the same,' which is just that. Even for Mr. Xu, I can collect so many pieces of Jun porcelain at once, and I deliberately make them into a four-panel screen, which is very envious."

"Xiao Zhou, you kid are here to laugh at me, too." Mr. Xu smiled faintly and said, "But, old man, I really like this thing. This porcelain screen was bought in an antique shop in Liulichang, Beijing more than 20 years ago, and it was a collection of my proud treasures."

Speaking of which, who in this private room doesn’t have a few proud collections?

For example, it was Zhou Fugui. Jia Sidao had seen his collection. Even Jia Sidao himself, a newcomer who started with the jade industry, actually has a few treasures of porcelain. At least, the "Five Parts of Qing Palace" can definitely be regarded as a treasure.

However, A San on the side of Jia Sidao seemed relatively shabby.

"Haha, if you say that, if you are Mr. Xu, then, like A San and I, you can only find a few pieces of porcelain that open the door at will. No matter what era it is, you don't have to be very precious. Just make them all together and create four screens or something. No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a collection of treasures." Jia Sidao said jokingly.

Of course, that's what he said, and Jia Sidao suddenly remembered that there were a lot of broken porcelain pieces in his home. If what he said became a reality, it was actually a good fun. However, it was a bit waste to make four screens like Mr. Xu and use expensive huanghuali to make them into four screens.

It’s better to find some ordinary mahogany, and it should be almost the same.

Moreover, Jia Sidao's requirements for collecting broken porcelain pieces are not very high. It is just used to learn the collection of porcelain. It is too exquisite, but it loses the true meaning of collecting broken porcelain pieces. It is quite a bit of a loss. Of course, Jia Sidao thought about it this way, just that there is no good material in his hand, such as Huanghuali, nor good broken porcelain pieces, such as Jun porcelain. Otherwise, Jia Sidao would not mind that there is one more collection similar to the four-panel screen of Xu's current Jun porcelain in his collection?

In the following time, perhaps everyone agreed that Jia Sidao entered the antique street circle, but what he said was not particularly targeted, and everyone was chatting happily. Even Ah San also talked about it here. Especially when talking about one of them, the process of buying wooden furniture was really funny.

"Just say it's in a county and city near Linhai County. There is a good furniture city there!" A San said viciously. Jia Sidao also heard of the name of the furniture city. To put it nicely, it's a furniture city. It's a bit bad. It's just a place to collect rags. There are a lot of things to be recycled, and it's just wooden furniture.

Jia Sidao's impression of these people who collect furniture was still in his childhood. Many people walked in the countryside and asked door to door if there were antique furniture for sale, such as wooden beds, or wooden carved windows and doors. At that time, at Jia Sidao's age, he naturally didn't know why the simple wooden beds in his home could be exchanged for a lot of money.

Even the so-called "a lot of money" is only a child's vision in Jia Sidao's current view.

However, it is undeniable that these furniture collectors sometimes come across good antique furniture by searching in the countryside. Although the quality is not very high, it is rare for anyone to sell their best antiques at a low price. However, even if it is just some things on the edge of the level, they still have a lot of profit margins during the period after being taken over by these vendors.

Then, A San said: "I usually go there for three or two months to check if there is any good thing. Sometimes, I really checked for leaks and checked a few gadgets, but it wasn't accurate. Just a while ago, I packed a good pen holder. It is also a root carving type. Although the material is not as good as Huanghuali and Rosewood, it is because of its good carving skills and it is quite affordable to keep it for fun. However, last month, I encountered something that made me laugh and cry there."

"Oh?" Jia Sidao was quite curious at the time and asked in a cooperative manner, "Can there be something that makes you, A San, laugh and cry?"

"What's so strange about this?" A San said to Jia Sidao with anger and said, "At that time, when I went there, I was there. I still had some serious business. However, when I passed by, I happened to see a familiar boss standing there. Because the goods had just arrived, I was busy. I was not willing to help others, so I went over to help immediately. After that, it was also considered that I did good deeds, and good deeds would be rewarded. By chance, I saw four chairs placed next to me..."

Speaking of this, maybe when it comes to being happy, A San's tone has also become much lighter.

Even the expressions of Jia Sidao and others next to him were slightly moved. After all, judging from A San's tone, he must have encountered something good? Otherwise, A San's personality would definitely not have been mentioned.

However, A San was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he said calmly: "Just talk about the four chairs I saw, they are not the kind of backrest, but very simple. They are just a wooden pier, about the same size as the oval stones placed in the park. There are also some carvings on them. As for the texture, I thought it should be an old mahogany. I couldn't quite understand what type of them."

"Asan, you kid, now you know that you only regret that you have less books when you use them?" Mr. Xu next to him said to Asan.

"That's right." Asan smiled embarrassedly and continued, "But, even on the spot, I didn't quite understand, but I knew it was a good thing, so I asked the boss, how much does this thing cost?"

"Ten thousand?" Jia Sidao saw a look of inquiry in A San's eyes. He immediately said a number without hesitation.

"There are tens of thousands of places. The boss and I are quite familiar with each other, so they gestured for a few thousand." A San said with certainty, "I was naturally happy in my heart. Could it be that I really got a leak because I got out of the car and helped me?... But soon, I calmed down and carefully checked the stools again. It looked really good. Then I said, packed them together and sent them to Linhai."

"Why did something go wrong when it was packed and shipped back?" The boss next to him, who seemed to be silent and silent, asked.

"Old Liu, you're just anxious. I think, A San, is deliberately trying to hold our appetite." Zhou Fugui said with a smile, "Especially Lao Liu, you are a player. Now you hear something good appears, and you can't help but feel ashamed."

"I'm talking, San, you are a person who speaks very neatly. How can you speak intermittently now?" Old Liu smiled slightly and said, "It's really a matter of intentionality, which is to bring my appetite. I'll tell you, if you don't take down those four stools, I'll let me go and see you later, I won't agree."

"Well, Boss Liu, what you said is really,..." A San sighed and said, "It's really a bit difficult. Well, I'll make it simpler next. At that time, the boss naturally agreed on the spot. However, what makes me feel a little funny is that the price of three thousand is not the price of four stools, but the price of one stool...."

"That's all the things that can make you laugh and cry?" Old Liu was a little unhappy when he heard this. Instead, Jia Sidao looked at A San's eyes, and was a little funny. I believe that if the story ends here, A San would probably have to say it.

Sure enough, just as Jia Sidao looked at A San, A San smiled on his face and said, "Boss Liu, this is just the beginning. I thought that the things are pretty good. Three thousand per hand, just three thousand per hand. Anyway, I looked carefully and thought it was quite worth it. So, I told the other party about the price. Finally, the four stools were sold at 10,000 yuan. I felt happy. Then, I went to do business... After that, when I returned to Linhai, I waited until the four stools were obtained. As a result, I opened it and took out the first stool. Tsk, it was really good. When I took out the second, why did it become more and more wrong? The third and fourth, things happened one after another. It was not that the shape of the stools looked like or something, and what was wrong with them. In terms of their appearance, they were very similar to the first one, and to be more precise, they were

The same is carved out by a grinding force. However, the materials were wrong. At that moment, I called. I said, why is there only one of the four stools I got, and the other three are all modern preventive products? Guess what the other party answered? They were also very honest and sincere, 'Asan, tell you honestly, it would be very good if there was one in your batch of goods. Just this, I would like to remind you not to let you go back empty-handed. If others buy it, whether there is a real one depends on luck. Asan, you understand that if it really costs 10,000 yuan, you can get four stools like this, you said I had sent it myself long ago, so what else would you do? …’ At that time, I was just holding the phone and was stunned, which made people speechless.…”

"Haha, it seems that you are really a little amused." After hearing A San's narration, Jia Sidao couldn't help but nodded.

Speaking of which, in the antique industry, I was really depressed to encounter such similar things. But, don’t say that, even so, even though I knew that I had suffered a little loss, A San had no good idea. I took it back and returned it to someone else. It was obvious that the boss who was a little familiar with A San, and all said in his words, it was because of A San’s face that he had given a handful of real things. What else could you do?

If you don't want it, others may really want it.

After all, it was the antique industry, with many things with unclear prices and insufficient market competition. So, after Ah San told the story of his own experience, the owners of other antique shops in the private room also expressed their opinions, as if this gathering against Jia Sidao's test was just like the fast ones.

However, what made Jia Sidao happy was that it was precisely because of the change in the atmosphere that Jia Sidao could integrate into such a circle faster. As for the owners of antique street shops, they would have some ways to make their shops stand on the antique street without falling down. Some business methods were to open Jia Sidao's eyes.

I have a lot of insights about listening to your words, which is better than reading ten years of books!

Finally, when the party was about to end, Uncle Zhou Fugui mentioned Jia Sidao's jade shop again and asked specifically when it would open. At that time, the people present would go to support the show, so there were probably many other bosses who did not come today.

"Uncle Zhou, the specific opening time of this jade store has not been decided yet. However, the store has been renovated. The rest is the problem of supply, which is being gradually solved. I think it will be opened in another month. Generally speaking, I will be scheduled for National Day." Although Jia Sidao said to Zhou Fugui when he spoke, the content of the words was more directed at the other bosses next to him.

"During the National Day?" Zhou Fugui nodded and said, "It's a good day. However, Xiao Jia, because you run a jade shop, you should pay more attention to the situation on Yang Qi at that time!"
