Chapter 3107 Conspiracy

Just when Xiao Changkun was avenging himself for cheating Zhou Liangyun and earning two hundred thousand, Ye Chen, who was sitting in the tea house drinking tea, couldn't help but feel a little confused.

He had long seen that the person who just entered Zhou Liangyun's store to buy something was a liar, but he didn't understand why Zhou Liangyun bought his stuff.

Could it be that that thing is really from the Northern Song Dynasty?

As soon as he thought about it, Ye Chen almost immediately thought to himself: "With Uncle Zhou's accomplishments in the field of antiques, it is absolutely impossible for him to set eyes on Jinling Antique Street. Presumably, the bronze Buddha must be from the Northern Song Dynasty."

Therefore, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that this game was figured out by my unjust father-in-law and Zhang Ermao. If they knew that the three hundred thousand yuan sold to Zhou Liangyun today was worth tens of millions, I don't know what they would do." How do you feel?"

at the same time.

Zhou Liangyun saw that the man had gone away, so he stood up and closed the store door from the inside, and then carefully looked at the bronze Buddha he had just received.

He firmly believed in his vision that this was a gilt-bronze Buddha from the Northern Song Dynasty, and what he just said was a little conservative. The production technology of this thing was definitely extremely sophisticated in the context of the Northern Song Dynasty. In that era The era can be regarded as the pinnacle of bronze ware.

Very few bronzes from the Northern Song Dynasty have been preserved, and even fewer are so exquisitely crafted. Many people who play antiques may have never touched one in their lives.

But to put it another way, this leather shell is indeed a pity.

Zhou Liangyun speculated that it was likely that this bronze Buddha passed through the hands of people who did not understand it after a long period of time. The gilt on the surface was not well maintained, so it fell off. After it fell off too much, he simply stopped working on it. All the mottled gilt layers were peeled off.

There is no gilding, and the leather shell has been damaged during peeling. People who have not studied the Northern Song Dynasty bronzes in depth, even veteran players in the antique industry, I am afraid that most people’s first impression when they see this thing will be that it is modern. Imitation.

Therefore, Zhou Liangyun speculated that it must be an antique dealer who specializes in counterfeiting. When he accidentally obtained this bronze Buddha, he judged it to be a modern object, and then remade it based on it, and paired it with an unknown object collected from somewhere. They made a set of copper bases made in the Xuande year to deceive others that they were made in the Xuande year.

Zhou Liangyun also judged based on this point that the person who came to sell things just now must have come to deceive him.

The man said that he was selling his father's relics for money, but he knew the bronze Buddha very well in his words. He knew the age and the background. He could even use a few professional terms like "open the door". He can give a relatively accurate range for the price of the artifacts. It stands to reason that he should be involved in antiques.

However, this person did not know the chronology of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it was obvious that he did not understand the most basic history at all.

Those who are a little dabbled in antiques will not only memorize the emperors, reign names and times of the past dynasties, but at least have a relatively clear concept. Just mention the reign name of any emperor and you will have a rough concept of time in your mind. You can't think of the year when you mention the era name, but it is absolutely impossible to understand the five major dynasties of Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing.

Therefore, according to common sense, it is impossible for that person to talk about the Northern Song Dynasty, and he does not even know the corresponding year of the Northern Song Dynasty in AD.

In addition, the man made important decisions several times after looking at his mobile phone. Zhou Liangyun speculated that he was just a tool under the instructions of others, and the person who ordered him must have thought that this thing could scare him and make him He was blind, so he was asked to complete this scam.

Thinking of this, Zhou Liangyun also began to guess the mastermind behind it.

In the antique street, some people make a living by defrauding individual customers, but there are also people who make a living by defrauding merchants.

It has long been common in this industry to deceive antique dealers with fake items.

If you open the door to do business by yourself, it is not uncommon for someone to deceive you.

But the strange thing is that I have just barely opened my business today, and I don’t have much popularity. I don’t even have a serious sign. How come someone is targeting me so quickly?

This made him realize that there must be someone specifically targeting him in this game.

As for who was targeting him, Zhou Liangyun felt that it was most likely Zhang Ermao.

There was no other reason. The main reason was that Zhang Ermao had been to his store before and asked him about the scale of his investment in opening a store. In order to keep a low profile, he lied to him that it was only a few hundred thousand.

The man just now came with the item and offered a price of 500,000 yuan. It seemed that he wanted to defraud all of his hundreds of thousands of investment in one step.

Moreover, in the antique business, being defrauded of some money is not the most fatal thing. The most fatal thing is to have an unprofessional reputation.

Everyone knows that you are not professional, and people who really come up with good things will definitely not come to you. Those who come to you are all liars who want to deceive you;

And just because everyone knows that you are not professional, people who really want to buy good things will not come to you. They are afraid that you will buy a bunch of fake goods without knowing it and treat them as genuine goods for takeout.

Therefore, the sinister intentions of those who engage in this kind of scheme are clearly revealed. Not only do they want to defraud all their money, they also want to lose their footing in the antiques industry in Jinling.

But Zhou Liangyun murmured in his heart, he had never offended Zhang Ermao before, why would he target him like this?

What's even more ridiculous is that he made a plan against himself, but unexpectedly sent a good thing from the Northern Song Dynasty. This is really unheard of.

The reason why he just told the truth in front of that person was that, firstly, he concluded that no matter what he said, the other party would definitely not believe it, and secondly, it was also to leave a piece of evidence for the future.

At the four corners of the store's ceiling, several sets of surveillance cameras on the first floor were not removed when the previous owner left.

In the words of the shop owner, it only cost a few hundred yuan in total when I bought it. Not to mention that I had to carry a ladder to climb it up after dismantling it, and I couldn't even make a few bucks from the sale.

After all, they were all things he bought several years ago. A camera that cost only one or two hundred yuan a few years ago, but now no one wanted it for a hundred yuan, so he simply did a favor and gave away the account and password of the monitoring software. To Zhou Liangyun.

In the conversation just now, Zhou Liangyun had already been recorded by the surveillance camera and told the person clearly the stakes of the bronze Buddha. Not only did he tell the person what age it was and how much it was worth, but he also gave it to the person. The other party's proposal of half for each person can be said to be very kind and far beyond the average level of the entire antique industry.

The reason why he told the other party the truth was that he saw through the other party's conspiracy, so he simply used the trick to create a conspiracy.

He said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said, just because the other party couldn't believe it, so he said it with sincerity and sincerity.

The other party did not believe that this thing was from the Northern Song Dynasty at all. They only wanted to deceive themselves, so no matter how hard they tried, the other party insisted that it was only 300,000 yuan. After being informed of the true value of the thing, they still said that as long as Three hundred thousand, so with this chain of evidence, if the other party finds out the truth and comes back to cause trouble, he doesn't have to worry. Even if the lawsuit goes to the United Nations, he can't lose.

He has been doing antiques for a long time and has seen all kinds of weird things, so he has always been wary of others and considered everything very carefully.

After Zhou Liangyun downloaded all the surveillance videos to his mobile phone, he made a decision to get rid of the bronze Buddha as soon as possible.

The reason for taking action as soon as possible was not that he was short of money, but that he realized that someone did not want him to gain a foothold in the antique street.

I received this bronze Buddha today. It won't take long for someone to spread the news in the antique street, letting everyone know that they have been cheated.

If you want to make a good comeback, there is no point in saying that things are from the Northern Song Dynasty. No one will believe it. What's more, Zhou Liangyun, the antique dealer here, also knows that his professional level cannot reach the top, so the best way is Get rid of this bronze Buddha as soon as possible. Once it is successfully sold, your reputation in Jinling Antique Street will be instantly established.

As for whether becoming famous will reveal his identity, Zhou Liangyun is not worried.

Although I picked up a leak, this kind of leakage worth tens of millions of yuan can only have some influence in the antique circle in a place like Jinling. It is nothing in the national perspective, let alone the European and American antique circles. Collections often cost tens or hundreds of millions of dollars each.

The game Zhang Ermao made for himself was just enough to make him famous in Jinling without being spread too widely. The scale was perfect. This was not a timely help. It was snowing. I sent him a set with a heater. villa.

At the same time, Xiao Changkun, who was in Zhang Ermao's car, also received 300,000 yuan transferred from Zhang Ermao's younger brother.

The things he bought for 98,000 yuan in the afternoon were returned to 300,000 yuan in the evening. The profit of 200,000 yuan made Xiao Changkun dance happily.

It is always difficult for ordinary people to gain much happiness in their lives. When you make money, it often strains your muscles and bones and hurts your dignity. Most of the time, you make money on your knees, but few people kneel down to stuff money into your pocket. In your pocket; although going out to pick up girls will bring you psychological and physical pleasure, the money you spend will make you feel uncontrollably distressed. In addition, in order to earn back the money, you will have to invest more physical and mental energy in the future.

But today Xiao Changkun experienced what it means to be fully satisfied. He made money, and he made it while lying down. More importantly, he made money from his enemy and avenged his enemy.

This kind of good thing is very difficult for ordinary people to encounter. Its difficulty is equivalent to sleeping with the enemy's wife. The enemy's wife spends the enemy's money to open a hotel.

Xiao Changkun, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but praise Zhang Ermao and said with a smile: "Oh Ermao, you are really amazing! Even Zhou Liangyun was tricked by you. If you continue to play with antiques, who can play in the entire antique street? than you?"

Zhang Ermao was also completely relieved. After all, he no longer had to pay for Xiao Changkun himself, so he complimented: "As long as you are satisfied, President Xiao!"

"Satisfied! Quite satisfied!" Xiao Changkun laughed and said, "Now that we have the money, should we let the entire Jinling antiques industry know about Zhou Liangyun's eyes on him?"

"Of course." Zhang Ermao said hurriedly: "President Xiao, don't worry, I have made all arrangements."

After that, he took out his mobile phone and called Chen Yufei. As soon as the call came through, he immediately said: "Zhou Liangyun spent 300,000 yuan to buy the bronze Buddha. You can publicize it well to the outside world!"
