73. Chapter 73 Selling hairpins
Xia Ningmeng stayed half asleep and half awake in the bath center until dawn. When checking out, she asked the waiter how to get to the antique market.
Xia Ningmeng dragged her suitcase away from the bath center. Following the direction pointed by the waiter, she found an antique shop, but it was too early and the door had not opened yet.
Xia Ningmeng sat in the suitcase and waited. When she was hungry, she opened the suitcase and took out some snacks that Jian Jichen bought for her. The money was not much, so she didn't dare to eat a bowl of noodles.
After waiting for more than an hour, the antique shop owner finally arrived. When he saw a little girl sitting at the door, he looked surprised and didn't think he was waiting for him to open it.
However, as soon as the antique shop owner opened the door, he saw the little girl coming in, thinking that it would open so early in the morning?
The boss is a middle-aged man about 40 years old. He has a length that is over the shoulders, and a combed tucked in the back of his head. He is dressed in a black satin Tang suit. His ancient fairy-like temperament complements the business he does.
As soon as Xia Ningmeng walked into the store, the boss asked while dusting the feather duster: "Little girl, what do you want to buy?"
Xia Ningmeng asked timidly: "May I ask, are you collecting hairpins here?"
"Customize? I only sell it here, not anything!"
Xia Ningmeng looked disappointed and said with all her might: "My hairpin is excellent in ancestral arts. If my family had not urgently needed money, she would not have given up." In order to make the boss look at it, Xia Ningmeng deliberately used the word "ancestral history". Her father also collected antiques, so she naturally knew what words could attract buyers.
Sure enough, when the boss heard the ancestral inheritance, he could not accept it or not. The little girl seemed to be very difficult. It was really hard for such a young child to make a living. Anyway, he was idle and he would not spend money to chat for a while.
Xia Ningmeng took out the hairpin. The boss said that he really didn't know anything. If he was a person who knew the goods, he would have to open such a small shop to make a living. He had been a well-known treasure appraiser for a long time. When Xia Ningmeng took out his hairpin, the only thing he could judge was that the yellow metal was gold.
As for jade, it is not jadeite anyway, but also the valuable jade in China. Of course, the workmanship of this country is even more incomparable with modern craftsmanship.
The boss was a little disappointed with the hairpin. He thought it could be at least a yellow flower wood or something. The boss asked, "How much do you sell it?"
Xia Ningmeng opened her mouth and said, "40,000!" The experts all know how to bargain, so Xia Ningmeng left enough room for herself. No matter how much the boss bargained, it would not be more than half.
The boss suddenly seemed to hear some joke, and laughed loudly and said, "40,000 yuan? At most, 40,000 yuan will be given to you, will you sell it?" The boss said that it was because the little girl was alone and was considered to be poverty alleviation.
"4oo?" Xia Ningmeng rolled her eyes and threw them to the boss. She really threw them into secretly. She said: "He is actually a ignorant person. He can't even see such a good-quality Dushan jade."
Xia Ningmeng was so angry that such a ignorant Bangmao opened an antique shop, and I don’t know how many customers he cheated on?
Xia Ningmeng turned around and was about to leave. The boss was an amateur, but he still understood Dushan jade among the four major jades in China. He asked uncertainly: "Are you Dushan jade?"
Xia Ningmeng said: "Dushan jade, also known as Nanyang jade, is divided into white jade, green jade, green white jade, purple jade, top jade, and hibiscus jade. I am the best quality green jade."
