Chapter 11 Eagle, Wolf, Worm, Bear, Sheep, Shrimp

That stall is very lively.

Qi Xiang walked over and someone happened to get out of it. A gap naturally appeared among the crowd of people. He quickly seized the opportunity and squeezed in.

When he got inside the stall, Qi Xiang saw it clearly. The stall was about four or five meters long and more than one meter wide. The various things were displayed in chaotic displays, and there was no rule.

There are many things, and more people are interested.

Qi Xiang looked at it for a moment, and it was certain that this should be the Flying Tigers, not the guerrillas or the Flying Locusts.

It should be noted that the so-called Flying Tigers, Guerrillas, and Flying Locusts are the proper nouns in the antique circle and are generally used to specifically refer to a certain group.

After all, collectors, antique lovers, and cultural relics dealers are divided into different levels.

The first person, who runs a store in front of the boss, does not open it for three years, and after three years of opening it, they do bulk transactions of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions.

The second-class person has no funds and cannot afford to open a store, but he has the eyesight and understands the market. He likes to pick up bargains at the place where he shovels the land at a low price, and then sells it to those who open antique shops to make some difference.

As for the third-class people, they are usually not very educated and know nothing about antiques. They can only go around the streets and collect some old goods from the people at a low price, and resell them to the first two people to make some money.

For example, the guerrillas are third-class people who shovel the land in the countryside to receive goods, and then go into the city to take action.

The guerrillas are also the highlight of the antique market. They travel around the countryside and have a lot of money to collect old things from the countryside, so they rushed to the city to buy and sell early in the morning.

However, they rarely set up stalls directly, and prefer to sell things to antique shops, because the owner of the antique shop can afford money and knows things. Only when the owner of the antique shop screens out the remaining things will they take them to the market for sale.

In fact, the guerrillas are very hard-working. Sometimes, if you run in the countryside for a month or two, you may not be able to shovel a good thing. What's more, the countryside is no longer pure. There are often black-hearted antique dealers working with villagers to bury landmines and trap people.

There are many landmines and are very secretive, which makes people unable to defend against. If you accidentally step on them, you will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Usually, there are some real guys in the guerrillas, basically the main thing is the old goods, and the auxiliary goods. Therefore, people who visit the antique market prefer to contact them and hope to get a few good things from them.

If the guerrillas are loved, then the Locusts are disgusting.

The so-called locust team is actually a mobile street stall, which is equivalent to a fake store, and it is mobile everywhere. They are like locusts, putting garbage on the ground and can fool each one.

You should be cautious when dealing with these people. Usually, they have a high level of fooling people and have extremely rich experience in the martial arts world. Some people have even reached the level of being superb, and even experts have become numb.

Their business philosophy is to sell fake goods, and they don’t have to worry about selling real goods, but fake goods are cheated. Therefore, even if they have a real thing in their hands, it will be very expensive. Don’t expect to get some bargains in their hands.

The corresponding one to the Locust Team is the Flying Tiger Team. The Flying Tigers are just one word different, but the essence is very different.

Both mobile street stalls, the Locust Team is filled with fake goods and cheating, which is unpopular. However, players are very welcome to the Flying Tiger Team and are eager to meet the Flying Tiger Team every day.

Because most of the Flying Tigers are good things. Due to different regions, some things cannot be sold at their local area, so they can sell more money by switching to a place.

So wherever there is a large antique exchange meeting, they will run in groups.

Qi Xiang once saw a hawker who pulled four baskets of pastel plates from the Republic of China and sold them on street stalls. The price was so cheap that he was shocked, and then he started to grab them without hesitation...

Of course, since the Flying Tigers are mobile, it is a lucky thing to encounter such a good thing once a year. Moreover, some Flying Locusts are very treacherous and often pretend to be Flying Tigers to deceive people.

If players do not have the ability to identify the difference between the two, they may be easily cheated.

The reason why Qi Xiang was sure that this stall was the Flying Tigers was not because he had such a clever eye, but because he saw a person next to the stall...

The man was about sixty or seventy years old, with a gray beard, a bit thin, and wearing a simple gown. He looked like an ordinary old man and was not very eye-catching.

But when he saw this person, a smile appeared on Qi Xiang's lips, and he hurriedly squatted over and whispered: "Master Wei!"

"Hmm?" Master Wei turned his head, his eyes a little confused: "Are you?"

"I am Xiao Qi." Qi Xiang hurriedly said: "More than a month ago, I followed Brother Jiang to Boguya to grab something. At that time, thanks to your care from Mr. Wei, I gave a 20% discount..."

"Oh, I remembered it..." Mr. Wei nodded, not sure if he really remembered it or pretended to remember it. Anyway, he also had a smile on his face and said softly: "Xiao Qi, there are many good things in the stall. If you play with yours, don't worry about me."

You have to listen to this inversely...

Qi Xiang understood in seconds and immediately smiled and said, "Master Wei, you are busy, I'll take a look."

Mr. Wei expressed his satisfaction. After thinking about it, he pointed his finger quietly and whispered: "Xiao Qi, I guess that box is good, you can take a look."

When Qi Xiang heard this, she was immediately delighted: "Thank you, Mr. Wei, for your advice."

Mr. Wei smiled and then buried his head in the things in his hands.

Qi Xiang was also tactful and immediately took a few steps away, then reached out and grabbed the box and watched.

He must not refuse to believe Mr. Wei's words.

Because Mr. Wei is an eagle, an eagle flying in the sky, and at best he is just a little bug. When the little bug sees the eagle, he has no right to look up and respect, and has no right to question it.

It should be noted that eagles and insects are the levels that folk antique collectors have set for themselves.

There are six levels of eagle, wolf, insect, bear, sheep, shrimp, and basically cover the entire collection player group.

Eagles, like Master Wei, are usually cultural relics experts, veteran players, senior antique shop owners, etc., which can be called the nightmare of street stall owners. They have extraordinary eyesight, and they must be strong and capable, and all the objects are visible in their eyes.

When they are shopping in street stalls, they usually don’t take action, and once they take action, they will definitely find a bargain.

Anyway, Qi Xiang knew Mr. Wei’s identity. He was the owner of a large antique shop in Confucius Temple. He was said to be a researcher at the Palace Museum and a national cultural relics expert.

For ordinary players, this level is definitely a god-like existence. Therefore, people call people of their level an eagle, meaning that they are high above and look down on all living beings...

Below the eagle is the wolf.

If the eagle is high and far away from the mortal world, then the wolf is a carnivorous animal and belongs to the person the stall owners hate the most.

The so-called wolf generally refers to experienced collectors and antique shop owners. They are experienced, have high levels, have strong purchasing ability, and have good psychological qualities. They are generally not deceived.

Usually, this type of person does not pay attention to stalls full of fake goods, and can quickly find good things in the chaotic street stall goods. They are familiar with the characteristics of various fake goods and can automatically filter unnecessary things.

Once they recognize a certain treasure, they will pounce on it like a wolf and bite it hard. If the wolf travels thousands of miles, it will eat meat, and it will swallow it in one bite, and it will never leave any residue for others.

It’s better to meet an eagle than to hit an old wolf.

This is a summary of the experience of stall owners, because the eagle has a high vision and they don’t take action if they are not good things. However, the old wolf will not care about so much. As long as it is leaked, they will definitely take action without leaving any room for it.

Those who set up street stalls are the two types of people who are most afraid of, and the rest are generally not enough to be afraid.

Qi Xiang is also very self-aware and knows that in the eyes of those stall owners, he should be just a little bug, his appreciation ability is at the entry-level, and he has only a little understanding of various antiques.

He is prone to being fooled by high-end imitations, but sometimes his character explodes and he can also get some small flaws.

Speaking of which, this is also a long stage that every collector player must go through. It is normal to learn from one mistake to another. If you learn more, you will have more wisdom and have more vision and fall.

Qi Xiang has confidence that as long as you accumulate enough, the insects can transform into butterflies and shine.

After all, compared to bears, sheep, and shrimp, insects are not miserable.

The bear sounds very powerful, but it actually implies that the blind bear is blind.

This is the largest ethnic group in the antique market and is also the favorite of stall owners. Generally, such players lack the most basic cultural relics and cultural knowledge and basically do not have the ability to identify.

They love to listen to stories, have fantasies, and are greedy for cheapness. No matter whether they are right or not, they buy it if they like it. They spend all day walking around street stalls, taking a small magnifying glass and pretending to be very good.

When you see things you have never seen before, you will be curious and do not learn related cultural relics and art knowledge. The so-called experience is all scattered and heard from, and it is not referenceable at all.

When people encounter something they like, they don’t first look at what is wrong, but look at what is right, and then try every means to convince themselves that this is a good thing.

Even though I buy fakes repeatedly, I am complacent and like to play with and show off, but I never pursue deep knowledge and culture. There are a lot of fakes in my home, and I still hiding in the quilt and having fun secretly.

What’s even more funny is that they can’t accuse the things they bought are wrong, they will turn against each other.

It is these people who support more than 90% of the street stall owners in the antique market, and they are naturally the most popular among stall owners.

The sheep that is worse than a bear is the sheep, also known as the big fat sheep. It specifically refers to a rich boss who knows nothing but is rich and loves to rely on a elegant and elegant boss.

If you are not kind, Jiang Baiwan is also this kind of person...
