When He Ren got on the online taxi and rushed to Xinyuan Community, his treasure friends were still there to comfort him.
"Even if someone comes in first, they may not be able to catch the leak. This thing depends on your eyesight."
"Even if there are no leaks to pick up, it would still be good to take us to see the wealthy people of the future."
"That's right, that's right. Take us to see our future daughter-in-law or mother-in-law."
He Ren didn't know whether to laugh or cry. These treasure friends were also blindly thinking about their future daughter-in-law and mother-in-law? Do you really want to eat soft rice?
Zhang Nuo was a little angry, "That guy actually dared to lie to me!"
He Ren consoled him, "Maybe people don't know that. Not every restaurant owner will go there to sell off goods. Besides, if they really knew how to go, they wouldn't tell you the truth. You're not here to steal business." ?"
When the driver heard He Ren's words, he smiled and said, "I bet you guys are going to Xinyuan Community to get rid of unused goods?"
He Ren asked, "Is the eldest brother also an expert?"
"Hi. What kind of expert am I?" The driver waved his hand, "Just a few hours ago, I just brought two customers over. I only learned from their mouths what it means to collect used goods, isn't it? "
"Brother is right, it is indeed collecting old goods."
"Are used goods valuable?"
"Then it depends on what kind of second-hand goods it is. General second-hand goods are indeed worthless, but furniture made of good wood, old banknotes and coins, some porcelain from the late Qing and Ming Dynasties, stamps, and even short-form books and comic books are all worth it. It might be worth something.”
He Ren is really not talking nonsense. After demolition, there must be some things that cannot be taken away. Some people choose to sell them as junk on the spot, and some people just throw them away. There are many valuable things among them. They are actually targeting them by picking them up. These.
Within ten minutes, He Ren, Zhang Nuo and Liu Fei arrived at Xinyuan Community. As soon as they got off the car, they saw many stalls at the entrance of the community.
As He Ren said, there are furnitures, many of which are quite new.
Zhang Nuo said, "Demolition is really equivalent to making a fortune. You don't want such new furniture?"
He Ren smiled and said, "It's not necessarily all residents who are selling. There may be some guys fishing in troubled waters."
"Fish in troubled waters? You mean there are people specifically bringing furniture here to sell it? What are they trying to do? And who are they going to sell it to?"
"Sell it to those of us who want to get rid of the waste. Since there are people who come to pick up the leaks, then there are people who come to fool the people who pick up the leaks. This has always been the case in the antique business. Some people fool ordinary people, and some specialize in fooling those who are less than half a bottle. A 'connoisseur' of banging bottles."
Zhang Nuo didn't refute, but her expression clearly didn't believe it.
He Ren did not explain, but just motioned to Zhang Nuo and Liu Fei to follow him, and they walked straight to the stall outside. There were several pieces of furniture on the stall, as well as some messy second-hand goods.
"Guys, look at the furniture?"
As soon as He Ren passed by, someone came over to solicit business. He followed him and saw a wooden cabinet in front of him.
The cabinet is completely black with an oily sheen, and is about half a meter high. The upper part of the cabinet door is also engraved with a dragon pattern, which looks very noble.
Zhang Nuo also came over and asked, "Is this hollow?"
He Ren nodded, "Absolutely, it should be called openwork..."
The boss immediately continued, "My brother is very discerning. This is a dragon-patterned cabinet. It is pure small-leaf red sandalwood. It was made in the late Qing Dynasty and passed down from my great-grandfather."
"Oh?" He Ren said with a smile, "You are old enough, and your eldest brother is not willing to give up your love?"
"There is no other way." The eldest brother sighed, "We are planning to immigrate during this demolition, and it is really difficult to take our things away. Besides, if we exchange them for travel expenses, we can live a good life for a few days. Do you think this is true? ?”
"That is, that is."
He Ren responded casually, and then walked around the dragon-patterned cabinet a few times. The elder brother continued to chat, "Brother, are you doing a live broadcast?"
"Yes, I just came from Liulichang. I heard that there was demolition here, so I wanted to come and have a look."
"Then you picked it up." The eldest brother came over and whispered, "While there are not many people around now, you can still pick it up."
"Brother, can you give me some guidance?"
The eldest brother patted the cabinet in front of him and said, "Isn't this it? It's from Xiaoye Rosewood. I don't care how much you want, 150,000."
"That's a real miss. There are more than this number of small-leaf rosewood cabinets from the late Qing Dynasty."
The eldest brother smiled and said, "Why don't you say you picked it up? I'll tell you the truth, if I hadn't been in urgent need of money, I wouldn't have sold it at such a low price."
"I'll take a look again."
When He Ren said this, Baoyou in the live broadcast room scolded him for being short-minded again.
"Anchors are always affordable. How can you say that other people sell things cheaply?"
Someone immediately refuted, "A new audience, right? This is the anchor's routine. I bet that this cabinet is definitely not Xiaoye Rosewood. But the anchor should be interested in something else, and he will wait for the boss to cry later."
However, the scene where the audience was worried about the boss did not appear. After watching it for a while, He Ren said that he had no money and could not afford it, and left with Zhang Nuo.
Walking a little further away, He Rencai explained, "Did everyone see it? I'm really not talking nonsense. That boss just heard the news and came to fool us who want to pick up the leak."
Zhang Nuoqi asked, "Is this person not from this community?"
"Certainly not."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because that cabinet is from a forklift truck..."
The treasure friends quit again.
"It's started, the anchor started talking dirty again."
"What is a forklift?"
"I've only heard of the excavator, Lan Xiang's."
He Ren laughed and said, "Forklift is indeed a jargon term, which means assembling several incomplete pieces of furniture into one piece. This is a craft that ordinary people cannot do. Not only must the material be considered, but the quality of the furniture must also be taken into consideration. Style, otherwise you can see through it at a glance. The boss just now has good craftsmanship, and it is difficult to see the flaws without looking carefully."
Zhang Nuo was shocked, "You mean the dragon-patterned cabinet just now was spliced?"
"Yes, at least three pieces of furniture are put together. The cabinet door, openwork dragon pattern and other parts are put together."
"That doesn't seem expensive? Such a large small leaf red sandalwood cabinet is from the late Qing Dynasty. It can be sold for at least 300,000 yuan."
He Ren smiled and said, "The dragon pattern openwork is made of small-leaf red sandalwood, and the others are large-leaf rosewood. And it's not from the late Qing Dynasty, but modern. As for the price, if you don't count the dragon pattern openwork, it's only more than two thousand." Yuan, plus it won’t exceed fifty thousand.”
"ah?"
Zhang Nuo was also confused at this time. All her attention had been on the dragon pattern openwork. She did see that it was small leaf red sandalwood, but she didn't expect it to be pieced together furniture.
He Ren consoled him, "Don't be discouraged. Why do people want to build a dragon-patterned openwork cabinet? I just want everyone to focus on the openwork. This is called pretending to be real."
"And haven't you noticed? I wanted to see more of the cabinet, and the boss tried his best to talk to me, and even tried to whisper to me, all to divert my attention."
Zhang Nuo was a little discouraged. He Ren patted her shoulder and said, "Let's go and take a look. There should be something good."
