Chapter 139 Cut out!

The boss took out the caliper and handed it to Li Yi. Li Yi measured it and was startled again. The belly diameter was 47! It was definitely a big walnut!

However, you can’t just choose one walnut, otherwise no matter how good it is, it will be useless if you can’t find a pairing.△YiLianShu w_w一一._1―k的a︿>

Li Yi put the walnut back and picked up another one. Good guy, this one looks like that twin brother at first glance! Not to mention the color difference, even the chrysanthemum pattern is almost exactly the same!

"Boss, how much does this cost?"

Putting the walnuts back into the box, Li Yi asked directly for the price.

"This pair is an old walnut from the 1990s, and you have also seen it. It is impeccable in terms of appearance and pairing, so if you really want it, it will be 20,000!"

From the bottom of my heart, Li Yi really thinks that this 20,000 yuan is not expensive, because as a walnut, this pair has entered the ranks of top quality, and once it becomes the best, the price will naturally be extraordinary.

However, he knew that this was his wealth and willful nature to do it again, so he did not dare to bargain, so he was going to ask Tan Moxuan first.

"If you can win this pair of people for 120,000 yuan, you will be taking a big advantage!"

Tan Moxuan and Li Yi bit their ears and gave their own judgment.

120,000? Li Yi felt it was a bit difficult. He thought that winning by 160,000 would be a victory. He looked at the calm boss not far away. He felt a little guilty. He might as well leave this matter to Lao Tan.

Seeing Tan Moxuan walking towards the boss with full confidence, Li Yi followed with a smile on his face with a mentality of watching the fun.

Now he already knew that no matter how he practiced or was cruel, he would never be a master of bargaining prices like Tan Moxuan. The only thing he could do was to earn more money. If it really doesn't work, just be a sucker in Tan Moxuan's eyes. Buying things is just for pleasure, so why do you have to do it like a war? Anyway, he has a magic weapon, and no matter how much money he is in vain, he will come back. What if he is willful?

What's more, when he looked at ▲〓When he was shopping alone, he felt that his bargaining level was not low!

After an invisible sword light, iron horse and gold sword, Tan Moxuan directly called Li Yi to pay for the money. 135,000!

It’s okay, Lao Tan is a real skill, and most people really can’t learn it!

After Li Yi finished swiping the card, he saw the boss handing over two boxes while picking up the goods, and he couldn't help but be stunned. What was he wrong just now? But he also knew that this was not the place to ask questions, so he took it and said thank you, turned around and left the store.

“What is in this box?”

"I'll go! It's true that you didn't listen to my trolling price just now? That's OK, this thing belongs to me."

"Hey, you have to let me see what you have to see first, why did you grab it by just getting started?"

Li Yi avoided Tan Moxuan's claws and opened the box and saw, Damn, isn't this the four-story grafted building just now with a price of 22,000 yuan?

"135,000, one-to-one-generation grafting for 46+, one-to-one generation grafting, brother, isn't it? Is it worthy of the lunch box you invited me to have at noon?"

Li Yi lit up his thumbs up at Tan Moxuan. Brother, you are really amazing, I am willing to give up the disadvantage. Take this pair of walnuts as your spoil.

Tan Moxuan's head was shaking like a rattle,

"You kid owe me a bottle of wine. You want to buy me so easily? No way! I let you owe you all the time, and I will kill you for a ruthless amount when you meet the right one!"

"Okay, you are so good, I'll wait for you! Kam'on Beibei! Come here!"

After laughing and making fun, Li Yi put the walnuts into his backpack. Then he walked around, and there was still a bracelet missing!

There are many materials available for bracelets. There are more than 30 varieties named after Bodhi in the tree subcategory, plus various jade, gems, semi-precious stones, fruit cores, bamboo and wood. There are no less than a hundred kinds of horn bones. ※You need to ■Read books and read ww one. ※1‍>

The two of them did not have any special requirements for the material of the bracelet, but as an appraiser, they always wanted to buy a string of truly outstanding old items, so it was best to get it from the bargain, which caused them to have a difficult choice.

Actually, when they were looking at walnuts just now, they had already seen a lot, but they always looked at the mountain high, so they didn't like a single item. After visiting two more shops, Tan Moxuan looked at his watch and said with a wry smile:

"Li Yi, I'm afraid I can't go shopping anymore, there are two books waiting to read!"

Li Yi thought about it, although he didn't need to remember it, but the two books combined would take more than 60 pages. Even if he read it, it would take a lot of time, let alone he had to practice calligraphy and sword skills.

"Okay, go to two more stores. This time, it's not limited to bracelets. What about buying whatever you bump into? "

Tan Moxuan nodded, saw two miscellaneous stores next to each other not far away, and said:

"Those two stores, if I can't buy them, I will go back and get the string just now!"

After entering the store, the two of them looked at the various bracelets and beads placed outside. After reading them, they asked the boss as usual if there were any better products and the price was not a problem.

The boss looked at them with expressionless eyes. Generally speaking, the more he said the price is not a problem, the more he was the problem. However, he decided to use two strings of real good things to let them know. He would look coquettish whenever he went there. Opening his mouth and shutting up means money is not a problem. It's a drizzle. The person he hates the most is this kind of person!

He signaled the two to wait, then turned around and entered the cottage behind the counter. After a while, he took out two boxes, put them in front of them, and said:

"If you don't like these two strings, you probably won't be able to see you both."

They were quite loud! Li Yi and Tan Moxuan looked at each other and smiled, each opened a box, and took out the bracelet inside.

Li Yi's side is a string of beads of small-leafed red sandalwood. The material is good. It should be made of the same material as the decorative box he picked up in the Antique City. The rosewood produced in India, which is the chicken-blooded red sandalwood. This material is the most precious of all rosewood. In the Ming Dynasty, it was used exclusively by the royal family or used to pay tribute to important figures in the officialdom.

Moreover, there was a layer of patina hanging on the bracelet, which didn't look like it was fake. Li Yi judged that this should be something from the late Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China period based on the patina.

The things are good, but with these two points alone, you dare to claim to be a skilled person to defeat Pan Jiayuan, which is a bit too big. But this is generally the case in business, so there is no need to worry about it.

He put down the bracelet and turned his head to look at the string on Tan Moxuan's hand. The string was a string of old star and moon Bodhi. The dense black stars on the orange-yellow beads were connected into a net, and the patina was very obvious. There was a crescent moon in the middle of almost every bead. In the jargon, it was called the first month, which was indeed a relatively rare string of old objects.

The two of them looked at each other and were very satisfied. They were the two brothers!

"Boss, how do you sell these two items?"

When the boss saw their expressions, he knew that they were attracted to them. He couldn't help but smile proudly and said:

"These two strings of beads are old items from the late Qing Dynasty. I said just now, you get what you pay for. Well... the string of Star Moon Bodhi is 30,000, and the string of chicken blood and red sandalwood is 80,000."

Tan Moxuan shook his head. Things are good things, but the price is a bit outrageous. Generally speaking, a string of good Star Moon Bodhi bracelets will not cost more than three thousand yuan, and a string of chicken blood and red sandalwood products will only cost tens of thousands of yuan. Although these two strings are old items, the premium is not so outrageous.

He calculated silently in his heart and pondered:

"I will give you six thousand this string, and ten thousand this string of rosewood is eight thousand. What do you think?"

"Not really! If it's just this price, I dare say that no matter how many families you go, you can't buy real good things."

Li Yi lay on the counter, listening to Tan Moxuan's bargaining, while holding the bracelet in his hand to play. Suddenly, his expression moved slightly, he raised the bracelet in front of him and looked carefully.

On the other hand, Tan Moxuan saw that the boss did not put away the things directly, so he had a rough judgment on his reserve price. Anyway, he had to retreat after buying these two strings, so he was not in a hurry. He started a tug-of-war with the boss at 300 or 5000.

On this side, Li Yi raised the beads to his eyes for a while, then rubbed one of the beads with his hands, then turned on the table lamp, pulled a piece of white paper and placed it on the counter, and lifted the beads under the light to see the shadows.

The two of them were talking back and forth, and suddenly they saw Li Yi's strange movements and came over to see them together. Li Yi smiled and pointed.

"Here, this bead is not round, boss, you can reduce the price."

The boss looked at the shadow, then held the beads in his hand and rubbed them carefully. Although his complexion was not good, he said in a slight way:

"This can further prove that this string of beads is an old object. Maybe it is a longer time than the late Qing Dynasty, and it is purely handmade!"

Before he finished speaking, the boss himself was amused by his unreasonableness. Even if there were no electric machinery in the Qing Dynasty, he still had artificial machines. How could he use manual polishing of round beads?

Besides, if someone really can make these eighteen beads so round and almost exactly the same through handwork, then he is simply not a human, a god!

Tan Moxuan was also laughing. It is common for beads not to be round. After all, machines are just dead objects. Whatever the things they make depends on who they are. However, although this current situation is not a decisive factor, it is still helpful to him as much as he bargained.

Li Yi did not think so. With the increasing excellence of knife skills, his understanding of carving had reached a certain level. The boss's words suddenly made him have a strange idea. Maybe the beads on the bracelets could be the product of a master who had nothing to do to practice!

He pretended not to care, and held the bracelet in his hand and played with it carefully. Almost every bead had to be rubbed for a long time. After a while, he really found something strange.

There is definitely a problem with this bead, because it is not only one piece that is not round, but each piece is not round! Moreover, this kind of non-round is completely different from the non-round caused by the deviation axis during machine processing, because it is random!

In other words, the boss actually made a promise. Each bead of bracelet is really made by hand-crushing and then grinding! (To be continued.)
