Chapter 1435: Middleman
It's just that the smile is no longer visible on his face, and his tone is also intriguing.
Hong Da didn't know how to answer the question for a moment. At this time, Mr. Huo took the initiative to mediate the atmosphere and said with a smile: "Brother Deng, you can drink water randomly, but you can't talk nonsense."
"Yes, Brother Deng, who did you listen to?" Hong Da's embarrassed expression softened slightly.
"Haha, don't be angry, Boss Hong. Just listen to what these few friends in the world have to say." Deng Yunjin laughed again.
"That's it." Hongda also showed a half-smiling expression, "Brother Deng, after all, you are not an expert in the industry. In this industry, it is normal to slander each other."
Lin Ran looked on and wanted to laugh.
Is this a high-end banquet for businessmen? It's just testing each other, and it hasn't gotten to the point yet.
However, one thing is right. Antiques is a very deep industry. The more people you know, the better. If you make the wrong friends, not only will they not be helpful when buying antiques, but they will be blind. Opinion.
Perhaps, their way of communication is the most perfect way of communication. Only by discussing business without emotions can the interests of both parties be maximized.
After all, the benefits involved are not just as simple as an antique.
If Lin Ran's friend said this, the business would probably be over.
I didn't expect that the situation would develop like this, but they could still keep smiling and continue chatting. It was really unfathomable.
"Haha, thank you two for reminding me." Deng Yunjin said his words of thanks, but he didn't take it to heart. Instead, he said, "But, everyone must have heard the saying, there is no smoke without fire."
His words made Mr. Huo and Hong Da frown at the same time.
Hongda also put away his smile, fiddled with the tea set at hand, and said: "Brother Deng, you are overthinking. I have been in the antiques trading business for ten or not 20 years, and I have never sold fakes."
"Hey, I didn't mean, Boss Hong, that you want to sell me fakes." Deng Yunjin quickly explained, "If you were this kind of person, would I still be sitting here, drinking tea and chatting with you two?"
The smile on his face is worse than not smiling at all, giving people the feeling of duplicity.
After saying that, he fiddled with the brocade box at hand.
This was the antique handed over by Hong Da. Looking at the brocade box, Deng Yunjin's eyes flashed with uncertainty.
Finally, he said slowly and calmly: "I don't like beating around the bush when doing business. Boss Hong, to be honest with you, this friend of mine has some information in the world and is also quite straightforward. He won't give me any lies."
"Of course, I'm not a philanthropist, and I don't like to help others identify artifacts for free. I'll be blunt here, Boss Hong, do you still remember the terms of the agreement? If it's a fake, how do you plan to compensate me?"
Lin Ran had been feeling uncomfortable just now, always feeling that there was something in Deng Yunjin's words.
Suddenly it became clear that Deng Yunjin was indeed coming with bad intentions.
All things considered, if he and Hongda changed places, they would definitely not sell it.
The so-called antiques are sold by reason but not by price, which means that they would rather sell them to people who appreciate them than to people who look down on them but are willing to pay a high price.
Fortunately, they have already signed the subscription agreement, and today they are just here to fulfill the agreement.
Hong Da's face was twitching slightly: "Boss Deng, Hong is not a person who doesn't understand the agreement."
"Refreshing." Deng Yunjin said, "Then you should also know the rules. Once the goods you bring me are fakes, don't blame me for demanding tenfold compensation from you."
The subscription agreement is important to both parties.
Only formal antique shops will sign an agreement for antique transactions, but most of them only sign the transfer of ownership.
Because in the antique circle, most of the time, money is paid and delivered. Signing a contract only means that both parties have conducted an ownership transaction, mainly emphasizing the cutting rules.
A subscription agreement is another type of contract.
This kind of contractual relationship often occurs when one party says it has the goods, but the goods are not around, but the other party has decided to buy it, so both parties can sign the contract.
A subscription agreement, like a contract, is a guarantee of integrity and credibility.
There will also be some compensation clauses on it. If one party breaches the contract, the other party will have to pay double or even higher price.
Of course, it has been clearly mentioned here that it is ten times the compensation.
Even if the price of antiques is lower, even if it increases ten times, it is definitely not a small amount.
Lin Ran couldn't help but doubt Deng Yunjin's purpose of coming. Could it be that he signed the agreement because he knew there was a problem.
After all, if the other party breaks the contract, it will have to pay a huge price.
Not only Lin Ran guessed this possibility, Hong Da also looked unhappy and said: "If it is a fake, of course I will compensate."
"Since Boss Hong said so, I think the things should be fine."
"Do you still want to trade?"
"Of course, I have nothing more to say." Deng Yunjin's eyes flashed with a hint of successful conspiracy, "Anton, help me look at the goods."
After Deng Yunjin finished speaking, he picked up the brocade box and handed it to the man behind him.
The man was indeed a treasure appraiser, and he was here just to see the goods.
When Deng Yunjin gave the brocade box, he even winked at the treasure appraiser.
However, the eye contact was very short and no one noticed.
The man named Andong picked up the brocade box, opened it, and inspected the goods.
Lin Ran also became interested and wanted to see how An Dong would inspect the goods in front of him.
After An Dong took the brocade box, he carefully placed it on the coffee table next to the table, then took out the white gloves from his pocket and put them on his hands.
Then he opened the brocade box and took out the items from inside.
It is a dark object that looks a bit like a wine flask in shape.
An Dun picked it up and studied it carefully for a while.
It took about 10 minutes of tossing, tapping, and tossing.
Then, he carefully put the wine bottle back into the brocade box.
"Mr. Deng, this is the real thing."
As An Dun's identification results came out, Deng Yunjin's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
"What did you say?" Deng Yunjin asked in a low voice, "Are you sure it is genuine?"
His voice was very quiet, but everyone in this small room could still hear him clearly.
An Dong was a little embarrassed. He also heard what the boss said just now, and he hesitated a lot for a moment. But as a treasure appraiser, his job is to identify the authenticity. It can't be genuine. To forcefully say it is a fake is not a sign of self-destruction.
Hearing An Deng's words, Mr. Huo and Hongda both laughed.
Hong Da even said: "The treasure appraiser hired by Boss Deng is very professional."
It was a compliment on the surface, but it made Deng Yunjin look a little ugly.
Deng Yunjin kept staring at An Dun, as if he wanted to eat him.
