Chapter 350: Landmine

For this reason, Jia Sidao had to sigh that there is still a certain gap between those who came from the town and those who grew up in the county, who have been passed down through several generations of people who have been in charge of the county.

Although Ah San was wandering around the Antique Street all day, or helping Jia Sidao guard the jade shop that was being renovated, they found out the general ins and outs of the things that had bothered Jia Sidao for a long time.

You know, this is the effect of A San not trying much to collect information in advance.

Jia Sidao could only smile bitterly and looked at A San, who was eating noodles in anger. Then he turned his depression into strength and began to eat noodles quickly. After that, Jia Sidao touched the corner of his mouth and asked: "I'm talking about A San, do you think there is hope for antiques on the TV station this time?"

"This depends on which aspect you are talking about." A San said, "For the masses, if you can create an extra program, you can naturally enjoy the eyes. As for the TV station, how to operate it and what level it can be done, no one can say before the program is made."

Even so, Jia Sidao seemed to be optimistic about this antique program when he saw A San's expression.

So Jia Sidao asked in a low voice: "Then what if my 'green fat red and thin' jade store also participated in this TV show?"

Upon hearing this, Ah San couldn't help but glance at Jia Sidao in surprise. Then, his eyes gradually began to lit up. He patted the table and said, "What a good idea. Why didn't I expect it? Hahaha, it seems that Xiao Jia, you are indeed a business person. It's much better than an idle person like me. I'm just suitable to be idle on Antique Street. Hahaha. If you can add an additional title of "green, fat, red and thin" in such a TV program, it will be difficult for your store to not become famous. Moreover, even if you can't just put this title on Xiao Jia, you are fully qualified to play a guest on the TV program and play a guest role in a working guest. I don't believe it. If you want to do such a TV program on the TV station, you won't be able to use antiques."

The laughter with a string of face and the praise in A San's words made Jia Sidao feel a little embarrassed when he heard it, so he could only respond and say, "If you are a guest, will the effect not be too good? I thought, I could give it a try and get the naming rights of this TV program."

This is also the real thought in Jia Sidao's heart.

"No, no, no." A San shook his head and said, "You think, a TV program that a TV station wants to support strongly will allow you, a newly opened store, to be named? This is obviously not realistic. Moreover, even if you can succeed in the end, it will cost much money. It is not cost-effective. It is better to improve Xiao Jia's own reputation first."

"Oh, what's the difference?" Jia Sidao asked.

"The difference is that if you name this TV program in the name of your jade company, then your jade store can continue to maintain exposure. If others come to Linhai in the future, if you want to buy jade, the first thing you think of is your jade store." A San said, "But will you always run your jade store? Oh, what I mean is that you will always focus on your jade business? I see your recent actions seem to be trying to enter the porcelain industry in the antique industry."

Speaking of this, A San sighed with emotion, not knowing whether he was sighing that Jia Sidao had good luck and strength, or his own bad luck. He paused for a moment before continuing, "In this case, if you only expose your jade store, then others' understanding of you will only be on your jade business. But if you often participate in this program, although the effect will definitely not be as good as direct titles in a short period of time compared to your jade business, your image can be greatly enhanced. You must know that your age is your greatest advantage!"

This last sentence made Jia Sidao understand A San’s intention.

No matter how you say it, it is a common phenomenon for experts in the antique collection to be older. Especially the public's psychology, it is exactly like this. It's like taking something for advice. Most experts of the same classification will send their own things to older experts for identification.

Similarly, it is the same for a patient to see a Chinese medicine doctor. It seems that the young Chinese medicine doctor has an image and craftsmanship in the eyes of the masses.

Jia Sidao couldn't say what kind of psychology this is. Anyway, people always hope that anyone who is close to some ancient things will be an old man.

And in such an old man group, a "expert" of Jia Sidao suddenly appeared. The effect of Jia Sidao caused by this can be imagined! It is hard to say that if Jia Sidao goes to the Antique Street again and buys something, he will be embarrassed to bargain with other antique vendors.

You are all on TV. You are so famous, how much money can you care about with us vendors?

Such a scene suddenly flashed in Jia Sidao's mind, and he couldn't help laughing, and he felt helpless. Although there must be many such small troubles. However, compared with the fame that Jia Sidao obtained, the collection career driven by fame is really insignificant.

"How is it? Do you think it's better to participate in such a TV show?" Asan said with a smile.

"It looks good," Jia Sidao said, "But you also know that if I go to TV programs regularly, I can't arrange it in terms of time."

Before Jia Sidao finished speaking, A San interrupted him and said, "You can rest assured that this is the case. If you participate in the recording of a TV program, you will increase your workload slightly, which is certain. However, it will not affect your other things too much. You must know that you will definitely not be the only one of the experts invited by the TV station. To put it bluntly, that is, even if you go to the TV station to record the program, don't treat yourself too much as a dish!"

As San said, he picked up a bite of the dish, put it in his mouth, and chewed it. Judging from his appearance, he looked more like an elder, and he was educating Jia Sidao. Jia Sidao was not angry. At this time, he didn't even know whether he could participate in the antique program on the TV station as an expert. If he thought about these things in advance, it would be a bit too early!

There was no words for each other. When the two of them walked out of the noodle shop, Xiaoma finally called him.

For this reason, Jia Sidao and A San looked at each other with some tacit understanding. Even Jia Sidao looked at the surrounding environment and wondered if Xiaoma was standing by the side and waiting for them to finish their noodles. After they finished eating the noodles, they called after they just left the store gate.

Otherwise, the time would be too coincidental.

In fact, Xiaoma is still staying at home at this moment. The informant over there has just called him and said that he will come to his house soon and take him there. A San here said to Xiaoma, and Xiao Jia is there. So, everyone is familiar with each other. As soon as Xiaoma heard A San's words, he understood and agreed readily.

At this time, A San even said that Xiao Jia was deliberately, so he naturally wanted to take Xiao Jia over with him.

"By the way, is that place far away? Do you want me to drive over?" Jia Sidao saw A San making a temporary gesture to him, and couldn't help but ask. A San knew it and asked Xiao Ma. At the beginning, either Xiao Ma was planning to rent a car, or just waiting for the informant to come, let's discuss it.

At this moment, when Jia Sidao mentioned it, he naturally became happy to drive over.

Immediately, Jia Sidao and A San didn't say much, and went directly to the parking lot at the intersection of Antique Street. With A San guiding the road, Jia Sidao drove the car to Xiaoma's door. It was also in the old city here, and the distance was not far. The two got off the car, and before they could reach Xiaoma's door, Xiaoma came out of the house. Xiaoma was now open, waiting.

"Come on, Xiaoma, let's talk to us in detail, what's going on?" After A San and Jia Sidao entered the door, they didn't say anything nonsense, and asked directly.

"It's done!" Xiao Ma said while pouring two glasses of water, "It was about eight o'clock in the morning. I received a call from Zhang San. As for Zhang San, maybe Xiao Jia doesn't know him yet, but, A San, you must have heard of him?"

"Well, I have some impression. It should be a broker in the antiques business here." A San nodded and said. The so-called broker, which is what people often call intermediary, makes some intermediary money by making connections.

When Jia Sidao heard Ah San say that he knew the broker, he was a little suspicious and worried, but temporarily calmed down. Who made the antique market these days have too many real and fake things, real and real things? If Ah San and Xiao Ma were not involved in it, it would be impossible. Even if Jia Sidao heard about such a thing, he would not have the idea of ​​participating.

In the antique industry, there are many people who are a little familiar with their frauds.

Jia Sidao was naturally relieved about A San and Xiaoma. However, Jia Sidao was very skeptical about the first informant who pulled Xiaoma into this matter, that is, Zhang San, who was dismounting the horse.

Jia Sidao has seen it online. There is a business called "Mine" in an antique business. It means that some speculators first store fake counterfeits in advance to a family in a rural area, and then use the method of taking action from farmers to make connections to fool some familiar people into this trap.

If you encounter a gang with a slightly more skillful method, they can even do it and completely carefully design and plan the whole thing before it happens.

For example, first, the people in the industry who are familiar with you will tell you the news. Because they are more familiar, you will relax your vigilance from the beginning; secondly, deliberately say that the source of the thing is of unknown origin, making it mysterious and nagging, making you feel that there may be opportunities and profitable in it; then, in your ear, tell me what situations someone has picked up, or just brag about yourself, in a certain aspect, such as the eye for identifying porcelain, which is more special, etc., which makes you in a state of being praised; finally, when it is time to see the goods, make some arrangements in advance in the environment, such as the lights being dim. When you start to observe the things carefully, the people next to you want to talk with you intentionally or unintentionally to divert your attention, etc.!

With such careful design, the entire transaction process needs to be completed in a very short time. If you are not focused, you will naturally have no time to see the flaws in the imitation product. Moreover, if you are facing such interlocking and well-planned fraud for the first time, it is difficult to be fooled.

It's no wonder that although Jia Sidao followed Ah San to Xiaoma's house, he still had some doubts in his heart.

"Xiao Jia, what's wrong with you?" Maybe seeing Jia Sidao's expression, she was a little unstable. The little horse pulled it, Jia Sidao's elbow.

"Oh, it's okay, I'm a little distracted." Jia Sidao said, "I suddenly thought about what kind of jewelry the piece of jade material cut out in the morning can be polished into. For a moment, I thought a little far away."

"Haha, speaking of it, Xiao Jia, you see, I have taken you to Xiao Ma's house. You haven't told me what good material you cut out." Asan heard this, he mentioned this matter again. Even Xiao Ma was curious and expectant, and looked at Jia Sidao.

Jia Sidao smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, there is nothing special, just cut out some 'purple eyes'."

"Purple Eyes? What?" If Jia Sidao didn't say it, A San wouldn't continue to ask. However, after saying it, it was something that A San had never heard of. It was no wonder that A San would be even more curious in his tone of inquiring.

"It's just a kind of jade material." Jia Sidao gave A San a angrily and said, "It's not easy to say for specific things. After hearing this name, just imagine it yourself. The real thing and the name are very similar. If you want, why don't you go to my factory now and let me follow Xiaoma to see the goods alone?"

"Tsk, you think it's beautiful." A San also knew the severity of the matter. The 'purple eyes' were in Jia Sidao's hands. If you really want to see it, when will it not work? This time the opportunity to see the goods is very rare! So A San immediately signaled Xiaoma and continued to talk about what was going on!

Xiao Ma was also very natural, so he reiterated the topic to the main thing, just like Jia Sidao's distracted just now, and the sudden appearance of "Purple Eyes" has never happened!

"The broker Zhang San is quite familiar with me. In the past, he also contacted me several times in business. However, they were all small things. Not very valuable. When I collected them, I also sold them at the street stall on the Antique Street for sale." Xiaoma said, "Although this kind of business doesn't make much money, it can at least maintain a life. However, I know that this time the news is true, if things are as he said, with my financial strength, I will definitely not be able to eat it."

Speaking of this, Xiaoma sighed, as if she regretted her lack of financial resources, and she also lamented the rare opportunity. In short, Jia Sidao was thinking that Xiaoma's feelings at this time should be constantly changing, right?

After hearing this, A San and Jia Sidao breathed a sigh of tacit understanding. Then, they looked at each other and their expressions began to become much more solemn. The real good show was just beginning from here.

Both of them were looking forward to Xiao Ma being able to say something special.

"When he called in the morning, he just raised his head to me." Xiaoma said, "Because Zhang San is not bad, in addition to business dealings, I would always get together. He also knows my current economic situation. To put it bluntly, he is almost the same as me. The only thing I am better than him is that I still have a little capital on hand, and I can set up a street stall or something on the Antique Street to make a living. And if I really want to make up some money in a short time, I can take out some of it."

"Wait, what do you mean is that he didn't want you to see the goods?" A San couldn't help but frown and said, "Wouldn't that mean that in addition to you, he also contacted other very powerful buyers?"
