C128 128 Starting from the Ground
Now, it was sold at a high price of one million dollars, which was tens of thousands of times the profit.
Nowadays, it was really easy to earn money from rich people. They would believe a random story that they made up!
While everyone was sighing, Xiao Tian wrapped up the rusted bronze sword.
At this time, the white jade orchid pointed to a small blue bowl beside the peddler's feet and asked softly, "Boss, how much do you sell this?"
As soon as she spoke, Manager Liu and the other few antique shop owners behind her all perked up.
The reason why they appeared here was not because they were shopping.
They had heard from others that there was an antique shop selling porcelain from the North Wei Period, so they had come to take a look.
The White Jade Orchid looked around the vendor's stall. There were not many pieces of porcelain. The only thing that was more complete was the blue bowl by the vendor's feet.
"Beauty, you have good eyesight. My friend asked me to sell this porcelain bowl. This is a good thing. If you like it, give it two hundred thousand yuan!" The vendor took a look and saw that it was a beauty. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
The White Jade Orchid didn't say anything. Instead, it began to ponder.
However, Manager Liu, who was standing behind her, spoke.
"Do you know who this young lady standing in front of you is? Two hundred thousand, you dare to shout it out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the owners of the antique shops beside him also voiced their agreement.
"That's right. I've been looking at your bowl for a long time. There are quite a lot of impurities in it. One look and I can tell that it's an imitation!"
"At most, it's worth a few hundred yuan. Two hundred thousand yuan. Are you crazy about money?"
Hearing their words, the peddler curled his lips carelessly. "Anyway, this is the price my friend told me. You can buy it or not."
Having earned a million dollars, he did not care at all.
As soon as he said that, the owners of the antique shops all shook their heads.
When the White Jade Orchid heard this price, it also instantly lost interest.
No matter how one looked at it, this bowl could not be from the North Wei era. One look and one could tell that it was a failed imitation. Among all the high imitation antiques, it was a younger brother.
Two hundred thousand... Only a fool would buy it!
"Boss, let me take a look."
At this time, Xiao Tian spoke.
The peddler who had just earned a million from Xiao Tian saw that the God of Wealth had spoken and handed over the small blue bowl excitedly.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian held the small blue bowl in his hand and carefully looked at it. He then stretched out his hand and flicked it. The sound was slightly dull. This was not the sound of glass or porcelain.
He thought about it and seemed to have thought of something. He relaxed his brows and handed the small bowl to the White Jade Orchid. He said in a low voice, "This small bowl is worth 200,000 yuan. It's not a loss!"
Seeing the two of them talking so close, Chen Mengyao felt inexplicably unhappy in her heart. She quickly walked over and said, "Uncle, don't speak nonsense. Miss Bai is an expert. If you speak carelessly, you will disturb her."
Unexpectedly, the White Jade Orchid lightly smiled and said, "Miss Chen's words are clearly extraneous. If Mr. Xiao says that it is worth it, then it is really worth."
Chen Mengyao was stunned and did not know what to say for a moment.
Xiao Tian laughed lightly and said, "This small bowl is neither porcelain nor glass, but glass products!"
What?
This small bowl is glass products?
Everyone stared at him, waiting for Xiao Tian to continue.
"According to historical records, the Roman emissary came to the North Wei five times at that time. He also brought along a small glass bowl. The impurities in the small glass bowl just proved that the technique to boil the glass was not particularly perfect at that time."
Hu!
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but cry out.
In other words, this small bowl wasn't just a treasure, it also had a lot of archaeological value?
If that was the case, then this glass bowl was definitely a treasure!
The few antique shop owners secretly regretted. If they had known earlier, they would have done it earlier.
They couldn't help but sigh.
"Boss, I'll take 200,000 yuan for this small bowl."
The White Jade Orchid acted decisively. Without any delay, she directly transferred the money over with her phone.
"Ding! Respected member of the trading company, your account has entered 200,000 yuan..."
Everyone was extremely envious.
The Bai family was indeed worthy of being the leader of the antique industry in Cloud City. They were so rich that they did not even blink when it came to 200,000 yuan.
The most dumbfounded one was still the peddler. He stared fixedly at the small blue bowl in the hands of the White Jade Orchid. He was secretly shocked.
Could it be that this thing was really an antique passed down from Rome during the period of North Wei?
If it was really as this brat said, not to mention selling this small bowl for two hundred thousand, even if it was two million, it would still be a loss.
Thinking that he might miss out on a few million, the peddler became anxious.
He snatched the small bowl back from the White Jade Orchid's hands, "Wrong wrong wrong, you heard wrong. This small bowl is not two hundred thousand. How could I sell it for two hundred thousand!"
The White Jade Orchid frowned and said unhappily, "Everyone heard you say two hundred thousand just now. Furthermore, I have already paid. How can I start the bidding on the spot?"
The peddler smiled. "Beauty, you are wrong. I am not raising the price on the spot. You guys misunderstood me. I'm talking about two hundred thousand yuan, a deposit. This small bowl, the total price is two million, give me another 1.8 million. I'll give this bowl to you."
What?
Two million?
Don't you know the rules? Every industry had its own rules.
Just like gambling on stones, you spend a few hundred to buy a stone and cut out an Emperor Green worth millions or tens of millions. That was someone else's good luck.
The antique industry called this picking up scraps. If this industry was like this peddler, then it would really be a mess.
"Do you know the rules or not? This is not how you do business!" Bai Yulan said unhappily.
Even Chen Mengyao and Zhao Manman could not stand it anymore.
"That's right. If you don't raise the price on the spot, what is it? It is too untrustworthy. Who would dare to come here to buy things in the future?"
The surrounding people could not bear to watch any longer, and they all voiced their agreement.
"You are too much of a bully. You are going back on your word. You are a profiteer!"
"Everyone clearly heard you say 200,000 just now, but now they recognize this treasure. You were tempted by money, but in the blink of an eye, you raised the price to two million. This is too much!"
In the face of everyone's accusations, the peddler did not take it to heart at all. He looked at the white jade orchid and sneered, "I have provoked you here today. Two million. You take the money and give it to you. If you can't take out the money, you won't be able to take it away!"
He had steeled his heart. That was one million and eight hundred thousand, not one hundred and eighty yuan. How could he not want it?
Bai Yu Lan bit her lips. She was the dignified young lady of Bai family, but today, she was actually made things difficult for a peddler.
Manager Liu, who was standing behind her, was shocked and angry. "Young lady, do you want me to call..."
"Forget it."
Bai Yu Lan waved her hand and said, "Since that's the case, I don't want this thing. Give me back the two hundred thousand."
No matter how good the thing was, she wouldn't be angered by this wimp.
"Right, quickly return the money!"
"Push the money to him!"
Many people around shouted.
"You want to return the money?"
The peddler sneered in disdain: "A small business will not be refunded once payment is paid. You can either hand over the remaining 1.8 million, or you can leave as soon as possible. "
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding people were furious.
Zhao Manman's pretty face was even colder. As a law student, she actually saw someone forcefully buying and selling. There was simply no law in her eyes.
The white jade orchid was so angry that her delicate body trembled.
Xiao Tian could not bear to watch any longer. He grabbed the peddler's collar and coldly said, "Refund or not?"
"You dare to attack me?"
The peddler raised his head and was not afraid at all. "Come, come, come. Try to move me. I will let you come in vertically and go out horizontally!"
That arrogant look clearly showed that he had something to rely on.
He heard that this kind of peddler was more familiar with some of the people in the lower circles, so it was better for him not to make a sound.
The people who were still voicing their support for the White Jade Orchid just now were no longer speaking.
Manager Liu was not afraid of these, and said angrily, "Do you know who is standing in front of you? This is the young lady of Bai family. Do you still want to stay in Cloud City?"
"Bai family?"
The peddler sneered, "What, you want to bully the weak? You want to use your family background to pressure me? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid. If you want to buy my things, you have to follow my rules! "
" Pa! "
Xiao Tian could not take it anymore. He opened his mouth and said, I... His mouth was full of feces!
He slapped him.
This slap stunned the peddler. The surrounding people immediately became silent. Everyone looked at Xiao Tian. They didn't expect that he would actually make a move!
The peddler covered his burning face and raged. "You think you can bully me because I have more people? All of you just wait and see. None of you will be able to escape!"
After saying that, the peddler took out his phone and dialed a number!
