Chapter 573: Follow the rules!
Buying Tianhuang Brush Washer for 300 yuan is considered a big business.
Ordinary people will think about it. After all, there are still many poor people.
"Old Li, what you are doing is a bit unethical." The shopkeeper looked displeased.
"Old Huang, I'm short of a pen washer right now, so give it to me." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
The two actually knew each other and seemed to have a good relationship.
Lin Ran didn't mind selling things to them, since they only cost more than ten yuan from the market.
Just as he was about to make a transaction, the male student behind the middle-aged man spoke.
"Teacher, such a broken thing is actually worth 300 yuan?"
He was full of confusion: "Even the blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty is not worth this price."
Lin Ran looked at them as if he saw himself who had just started.
He couldn't believe it at the time, but the trinkets he collected could be sold for one or two months' living expenses.
"Zhang Feng, how can you talk like this?" The middle-aged man said seriously, and the sellers were all present.
In the treasure appraisal industry, the most taboo thing is to say that something is worthless.
When they encounter goods that they think are worthless, they will often say "We don't accept this item" instead of directly saying that the thing is worthless, leaving ample room for both parties.
But Zhang Feng still refused: "Teacher, I know that Tianhuangxi is relatively rare in China and has high collection value, but I don't think 100 yuan can be more. My dad once bought one similar to this one in Xiangjiang A large and small top-grade Tianhuang wash is only 500 yuan.”
Young and energetic, he looked very much like the rich second-generation classmates in Lin Ran's class.
Lin Ran smiled and said: "Brother, do you know the characteristics of top-grade Tianhuang?"
He decided to teach the young man in front of him a lesson.
Zhang Feng didn't expect that Lin Ran would dare to talk back, and immediately said unwillingly: "It's better than what you have in your hands anyway."
The middle-aged man was about to stop his student, but Lin Ran had already handed him Tian Huang's brush.
"Then come and evaluate it and let me see your level." Lin Ran smiled.
He was not angry with the students, they were the future of the treasure appraisal industry.
But he wanted to rub the energy of the person in front of him.
The middle-aged man also understood what Lin Ran meant and said to the student: "Zhang Feng, let this be your first practical class."
"Yes, teacher." Zhang Feng glared at Lin Ran, thinking that he was just a poor boy who wanted to get rich by picking up leaks.
As for me, not only did my family have money, but I was also a college student who was called the proud son of heaven, so I didn't take Lin Ran seriously.
If you make an appraisal with bias, there will naturally be deviations.
Zhang Feng took Tian Huangxi, originally thinking it was an ordinary gadget.
But when he saw the appearance clearly, he was slightly stunned.
This brush washer was more majestic than the one his father placed in his study, and the plum blossom print next to it was also more exquisite. There was no doubt that the price exceeded his father's collection.
It's a little dirty though, probably because it was just cut from the asphalt.
But he didn't want to admit it, and took the initiative to say: "This Tianhuang stone is soft and very ordinary. It should be a low-grade Tianhuang stone. The commercial value of the low-grade Tianhuang stone is very low, and it has no collection value, so in my opinion, this Tianhuang brush wash, It’s only 50 yuan at most.”
"And if I had 100 yuan, why not just use jadeite to make a brush wash of the same specifications!"
he said proudly.
After he finished speaking, the teacher was a little embarrassed.
Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh. The students in front of him were really newborn calves not afraid of tigers.
Not only that, he didn’t even have basic common sense about identification, and he even said something about jade pen wash.
"There are indeed jade pen washes, but such a large jade pen washer cannot be bought for 100 yuan." Lin Ran smiled, "Moreover, you only considered the commercial value. With the current technology, jade can indeed be used to make pens." Washing, but there are very few in history, antiques, the important thing is to be ancient, not to play."
"Low-grade Tianhuang stone does not have much commercial value, but this piece of Tianhuang brush washer is of medium grade, and the price is not as good as that of high-grade Tianhuang. But considering its users, it is not comparable to ordinary jade brush washers. Your family is so If you have money, why doesn't your dad buy gold for brush washing? That's more valuable."
Lin Ran wasn't laughing at him, he just felt that the other party was too superficial.
After being ridiculed by Lin Ran, Zhang Feng became furious: "Who do you think you are? How dare you yell at me? Do you know that I am a student of the History Department of Capital University?"
"I got a perfect score in the history of the college entrance examination, do you need to teach me a lesson?" Zhang Feng shouted unhappily.
"Zhang Feng! How can you say that to others." The girl thought he was going too far. Many people in this era cannot afford to study. They should not laugh at the poor.
Zhang Feng, however, refused to give up: "Xiao Rui, it was me who gave him shame and laughed at my family for being stupid and rich!"
He turned to Lin Ran: "It's not that I look down on you. Even if you get an education, you will never be admitted to Beijing University in your life. You will not be able to reach my level. You are just good at picking up the slack!"
"What's your level? Can't you recognize Tian Huangshi?" Lin Ran found it very interesting.
The people present were all industry leaders, and no one dared to say "level".
The young boy in front of him started talking wildly.
"Since you asked, I will tell you that I am No. 2 in the Beijing College Entrance Examination!" He proudly puffed up his chest.
It is indeed extraordinary to be ranked second in the city, but Lin Ran didn't take it seriously: "It didn't matter how good my grades were before. After entering college, everything starts again. It's better to be humble."
"Hey, it sounds like you are very powerful..." Zhang Feng wanted to continue the argument, but the shopkeeper was unhappy.
"Lao Li, if your students don't buy anything, please leave my store."
The middle-aged man's face was full of embarrassment: "Zhang Feng, stop talking and stand down!"
After being scolded by the teacher, he retreated angrily.
The middle-aged man smiled and bowed his hand to Lin Ran: "I'm sorry, little brother, my student is not bad in nature, he just talks carelessly, please forgive me."
Lin Ran smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm not as familiar as a student. But, boss..."
Lin Ran asked the shopkeeper: "Are you willing to give up the pen washing to this gentleman?"
The shopkeeper said helplessly: "The pen wash is yours, you make the decision."
"Okay, let's follow the rules. You made the offer to me first, and we haven't reached an agreement yet, so..."
The shopkeeper's eyes glowed with gold.
But Lin Ran's style changed: "I will give you Tian Huangxi for two hundred first, and then you will sell it to this gentleman. What do you think?"
"Okay!" Lin Ran's suggestion was approved by the shopkeeper. The middle-aged man was also surprised, and then he laughed with the shopkeeper.
"My little brother is young, but he knows the rules. Just do as you say!"
In the end, everyone was happy. Both the boss and Lin Ran made money, and the middle-aged man also got Tian Huangxi.
When the matter came to an end, Lin Ran was ready to leave.
The middle-aged man stopped Lin Ran and said, "Brother Xiong, it seems that you are about the time to go to college at your age, right? With your eyesight, it shouldn't be a problem to go to college, right?"
He felt that the young man in front of him had an extraordinary temperament, so he asked.
College...
Lin Ran was speechless and said, "It should be no problem."
"May I ask your surname?"
"Lin Ran, Shuangmulin, naturally." Lin Ran waved his hands to them and left without looking back.
"Lin Ran?"
This name seemed familiar to the three of them.
The two students were the first to react.
"Isn't Lin Ran...?" The girl was a little excited.
And Zhang Feng was already extremely angry.
Because he was only under one person, which made him depressed for a whole summer vacation.
And that person's name is Lin Ran.
As for why he didn't report to school, they still don't know the reason!
