Chapter 126 - 126 I Mainly Wanted to Make a Deal With You, Little Kid (2)
Just as he was about to bid, Ye Xuan, who had been observing the bronze artifact, said, “I offer a price of 100 yuan! If you agree, let my friend buy it back as a decoration.”
The old man was instantly unhappy. His eyes widened like copper bells as he glared at Ye Xuan. “What do you mean, you little child? Do you think I’m selling fake goods? I’ve seen people lower the price, but I’ve never seen someone lower the price like you! This is the real deal. I’ve never played tricks!”
Ye Xuan looked at him teasingly. “Oh, why did you change your first person pronoun1? Do you think that your scolding won’t flow well?”
!!
A trace of panic flashed across the old man’s face. He subconsciously avoided Ye Xuan’s gaze and his voice was not as high as before. No matter how one looked at it, he looked guilty.
“I was just anxious. What’s the harm in changing my first person pronoun? I have to say, young children like you in the city are too scheming and evil. You’re maliciously speculating about me!”
Everyone frowned at the two of them. The passersby, who had previously praised the old man as a good person, stopped talking.
Ye Xuan didn’t care about the old man’s words at all. He still had a gentle smile on his face and said calmly, “I was just saying. Old man, you don’t have to be so agitated. What first person pronouns you use is indeed a small problem, but it’s your fault for using a newly minted bronze artifact to fool others.”
A newly minted artifact?
With Ye Xuan and the old man arguing, more passersby gathered around to watch the commotion.
When they saw that the person discussing with the old man was actually an eight or nine-year-old child, they all revealed shocked expressions.
Had such a young child already started collecting?
The changes in this era were too fast.
Looking at Ye Xuan, everyone instantly felt that they were old.
The old man blushed and wanted to argue again, but Ye Xuan raised his hand to stop him.
He pointed at the bronze artifact and said, “If I’m not wrong, this is a copper-nickel alloy with some lead, right?”
After saying that, he pointed at the patterns on the cauldron and said, “Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be such patterns on a three-legged cauldron. Therefore, I studied it carefully and discovered that these patterns happen to cover the obvious traces of your lathe.”
Ye Xuan saw the person beside him sticking his head out to look for traces of the lathe he mentioned, so he kindly pointed out the location.
With his guidance, everyone could tell that something was wrong.
For a moment, the surrounding crowd cursed.
“F*ck, I knew it. How could anyone spend 5,000 yuan just to take a look? So it’s just a shill, right?”
“I previously heard that middle-aged man brag until I was so annoyed and almost believed him! Thank God, we don’t have that much savings!”
“This little brother is still the best. If not for him, someone would really have been deceived!”
The old man was a little exasperated after being exposed, but with so many people surrounding him, he didn’t dare to really do anything to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan looked at the slightly panicked old man and asked, “Although this is a fake, it’s a memorable accessory. I’ll offer 100 yuan. Are you selling it?”
The old man lowered his eyes and thought for a while before spreading his hand towards Ye Xuan. “Alright, it’s not about the money. I just wanted to make a deal with you, little kid!”
Seeing that the item with a bid of 200,000 yuan was sold for 100 yuan, the onlookers sighed.
As expected of the Jinling Peach Garden. There were all kinds of tricks!
As the victim who had almost been cheated of 200,000 yuan, Liu Yun immediately exploded on the spot.
What the f*ck, his mentality exploded!
This old man previously swore that it was worth 200,000 yuan!
F*ck, he almost lost his underwear.
If not for Zheng Jianghao, who saw that something was wrong with him and pulled him back, Liu Yun would have rushed forward to beat up the old man.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Suddenly, there was a round of applause behind everyone. Everyone turned around.
When they saw the person’s appearance clearly, they instantly went crazy.
“Am I seeing things? I actually saw the real Teacher Zhao Yuan!”
“Teacher Zhao Yuan looks even more refined and sophisticated than on television. He really has the demeanor of a great master!”
“Teacher Zhao Yuan, can I take a photo with you? I’m your most loyal fan. I’ve been watching your show for many years!”
Everyone looked at each other. Which one of the people who swept the streets and looked at the goods every day here was not Teacher Zhao Yuan’s fan?
Zhao Yuan only smiled at everyone and didn’t say anything. Instead, he walked to Ye Xuan and said with a smile, “Little friend, we’re really fated. I didn’t expect to see you here!
“The way you analyzed the artifact just now was really exciting. The most important thing in collecting is to observe in detail. You have to study antiques seriously and analyze the seller’s story at the same time. It turns out that you didn’t get it by chance on the show that day. Little friend, you really have real talent!”
Everyone watched helplessly as their respected Teacher Zhao Yuan praised an eight or nine-year-old child to the sky.
An intense discussion instantly broke out in the event location.
“Who is this child? Not only can he see through the authenticity of the bronze artifact, but he was also praised by Teacher Zhao Yuan to this extent?!”
“Although I don’t know who this child is, I can clearly tell that he’s talented!”
“This child is indeed extraordinary! He really can tell that it was a fake. Meanwhile, we couldn’t buy a fake because we don’t have money!”
