Chapter 12 A good bargainer
Hearing that the rosary beads in his hand were made of human bones, Xie Xiaozhang was so frightened that he almost lost his grip.

No wonder the stall owner said thank you to the little girl Xiaozhang, I'm afraid this thing can't be suppressed!

Xie Xiaozhang counted, trying to count how many bone beads there were on the string, but the result was that there were more and more.

Seeing this, the stall owner interrupted: "A total of one hundred and eight beads."

One hundred and eight beads? !That is, the eyebrows of one hundred and eight people? !Xie Xiaozhang's hair stood on end.

"Ordinary people can't use the eyebrow bone. It must be a lama who has achieved Taoism."

"Because they felt that the lamas used their eyes to read scriptures, observe the heaven and earth, and cultivate their skills on the eyebrows, so they used them to make rosary beads."

"However, this string should not be of that high value."

Xie Heng explained.

Xie Heng didn't know much about antiques and art products, but he heard a lot about ancient legends in the village.

It is impossible to recall these things at ordinary times, but once they are in front of you, you can still recall them slowly on your own.

Xie Xiaozhang lowered his head slightly and asked in a voice that only he could hear clearly: "Isn't this a string?"

"They usually count 110 beads in a string, and there are regulations and requirements, but this is not the case if there are only [-] beads in the string."

"It may have been imitated by some wealthy folk families. The value is far less than the above, but I'm afraid it's not low either."

Xie Heng said again.

Xie Xiaozhang suddenly realized. He didn't expect that someone would imitate this kind of thing... He didn't understand it, but he respected it.

"How do you like it, little girl? If not, you can also look at other things. I have a lot of treasures."

The stall owner had been staring at Xie Xiaozhang just now. The little girl didn't look very smart. In terms of her clothes, it was hard to tell whether she had any strength in her pocket.

But he lowered his head from time to time, and his expression changed from time to time. After the preliminary judgment of the stall owner, Xie Xiaozhang should be a college student.

Then he shouldn't be a member of this circle, just joining in the fun, just not buying it?
But that's okay, he mainly relies on service for his livelihood: "Look at our bracelets and chicken bowl cups, they are all good things."

The stall owner selected a few that seemed to be in good condition and preserved and introduced them to Xie Xiaozhang.

"I'll take a look again."

Xie Xiaozhang must not be sure himself, so he has to wait for Xie Heng's instructions.

Xie Heng glanced over and saw that the items pointed by the stall owner were extremely rustic.

So I asked Xie Xiaozhang to go around the stall owner, go to the back half of the table, and select a few items that, although not in good condition, were rich in rustic style.

"Hey, little girl's eyes are really poisonous. You can see every corner of her body."

"These are incredible items. This pot alone is amazing. Look at the glaze water and the base. I can't pick out the second one in the whole street."

The stall owner smiled on his face, but he was muttering in his heart.

Was it luck or coincidence? Xie Xiaozhang clearly looked like he was not an insider.

But this finger contains three or four items, all of which are old items. Most people cannot see them and can easily miss them.

Or is it that a person cannot be judged by his appearance? In fact, hunters often appear as prey?
"How are these pieces sold?" Xie Xiaozhang got confirmation from Xie Heng repeatedly, and then he dared to ask the price, and took the string of human bone rosary beads with him.

Her monthly salary is only a little bit, and she was cheated of two hundred last time, and she still remembers it until now, but now she naturally chooses to trust Xie Heng.

She did whatever Xie Heng said, without any ambiguity!
Although she is mediocre, she is definitely not the kind of player who can't even carry her flying. She can beat her easily.

"Look, girl, you know your stuff, so I don't need to say more. They are all old objects. The pots and cups must be from Mingzhong upwards." "But we don't want to trick you. It's not an official kiln, it's a private kiln. Yes, these two together I will give you eighty-two thousand."

"The bronze mirror is incredible. I spent a lot of money on it. It is probably the bronze mirror used by Empress Wu for dressing. It belongs to the Tang Dynasty. Even if I leaked this to you in good faith, I would have paid a hundred thousand for it."

"For rosary beads, it's sixty-six thousand, which is too much to mention."

The stall owner picked up the calculator and pressed it for a while. Xie Xiaozhang didn't listen to anything else. He just heard the cry of "zero zero zero". How many zeros are there?
With so much money, even if she were sold, it wouldn't be worth it! ?There was already a desire to retreat at his feet, and he could only turn his head to look at Xie Heng helplessly.

"Don't worry, let's chat first." Xie Heng reassured.

The stall owner clicked on the calculator, and finally the final number rang out: "24, look at the girl's sharp eyes and good looks, I'll give you some blood to wipe the three Thousand, that’s 24.”

Xie Xiaozhang's mouth twitched. If it weren't for the fact that the antique market was not accessible to ordinary people, she would have made more than 20 yuan with just one finger!
"Aren't you good at bargaining? Go ahead and do it within your ability. Be bold." Xie Heng patted Xie Xiaozhang on the shoulder. The next steps depended on Xie Xiaozhang.

Judging from Xie Heng's judgment on the rusticity of things, the age should not be different. Let's not talk about anything else. Even if the human bone beads are imitations, the bones are real bones and the patina is also real.

The extra money of [-] is not high, and can even be said to be quite conscientious.

I don’t know if it’s because the stall owner doesn’t know what he’s selling, or if he has some tricks up his sleeve.

Other stalls either don't even have anything on display, or if they do, they have to put it in the most conspicuous place to attract customers.

This stall owner is completely opposite to them, and he still keeps his stall so hidden.

Xie Heng always felt that this stall was a bit strange, not like a serious business of deceiving people.

But it’s okay, the atmosphere is here, let’s see if the price can be reduced first.

Xie Heng still knew how much money Xie Xiaozhang had in his pocket. If he cut it off within his ability, even if it was just one piece, he would definitely make money.

If you can't cut it, just go shopping, pack up and go home for dinner.

Be bold?Within the ability?Xie Xiaozhang's nostrils dilated when he was nervous.

After thinking again and again, the stall owner looked at Xie Xiaozhang expectantly, waiting for her to counter-offer.

After holding it in for about four or five seconds, he slowly sprouted five fingers and whispered: "Look, if we add it up, how about five...five hundred?"

As a miser, shouting out the number five hundred in one breath was already a huge breakthrough for Xie Xiaozhang.

"Five hundred!!? Girl, do you want to bargain with me or do you want to bargain with me? I can't do this business for you."

The stall owner's face changed. He guessed that Xie Xiaozhang would cut the price very low, but he didn't expect it to be so low!
Five hundred for so many items?
Seeing that the stall owner had no intention of greeting her, Xie Xiaozhang and Xie Heng made eye contact.

Finally, I decided to try to raise the price again, and if they didn't agree, I would leave.

"I...shall I add more?" Xie Xiaozhang gritted his teeth again, exhaled, and made up his mind: "Then, two thousand? If it's more, forget it."

Two thousand is already her limit, and if she starts school again, she will have no choice but to eat as much as she can.

After saying that, seeing that the stall owner ignored her, Xie Xiaozhang could only turn around and prepare to leave.

But at this moment, the stall owner behind her called out to her: "Wait, wait, wait, wait, it's all just an order, I missed it for you."

"I do loss-making business here every day. After clearing out the goods, I can go back to my hometown."

The stall owner cursed and muttered this, but Xie Heng specially put his hands behind his back and took a few steps closer to the stall owner.

You can clearly see a sly smile on his face.
