Chapter 911: Lie to others as you please
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhi said: "Wait a minute, you should call me back soon. Uncle Fei is the manager of the Provincial Cultural Relics Store. Even if the Yuzhou Cultural Relics Store is now responsible for its own profits and losses, at least the relationship is still there."
"Originally, the rule of the antique shop is that no one will acknowledge the transaction outside the counter. Even if you get a fake, it can only be regarded as an eye-catcher and cannot be retrieved." Zhou Zhi patiently explained: "But now is a new era, cultural relics
The store is a state-owned enterprise, so even if these are kept according to the rules, they should be reserved for experts and cannot be used as an excuse to cheat."
"The room belongs to their unit," Zhou Zhi smiled and pulled out the paint on the bottom of the plate and the stamp on the receipt: "But as long as there are these two things, there is no doubt that this thing came from the cultural relics store, and the Yuzhou cultural relics store cannot escape doing it.
Bureau’s suspicion.”
"It doesn't matter if you deceive others, but when you meet people in our industry, you can 'pick your brains'." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "The old rule is, as long as I give you the money, then put this thing upside down on the counter, and then compete.
For this 'eight' gesture, the shopkeeper has to pay me five times as compensation. After offering the good cigarettes and good tea, he will send me off with a smile."
Tao Ming imitated Zhou Zhi's gesture of turning over the number "eight": "What do you mean?"
"It's an old saying from the old days. In Xiajiuliu, 'seven prostitutes, eight thieves and nine blowing ashes', or 'seven dens of eight thieves and nine prostitutes'. The eight figures correspond to being a thief and turning things upside down, which means he has made a fake game.
If I see through it and make the sign of eight, it is a hint that I know he is a thief."
"If the shopkeeper doesn't want to ruin his reputation, he can only pay more and then send me away with a gift."
"There were so many rules in the old days." Tao Ming said: "Actually, being defrauded of money is a trivial matter. If it is sent to my client and people think I despise him, then it will ruin my big deal!
"
"I guess my brother-in-law thinks the same way, so we don't need to ask them to refund the money, as long as they can give us something good."
At this point, the phone rang again, and Zhou Zhi picked it up: "Uncle Fei... um, um, okay, hahaha, they told you this? Do you believe it? Well, um, let's go there tomorrow...
Not necessarily, no one can be sure not to look at you... Hahaha, as long as Uncle Fei said this, if it weren't for the open door, I would look for you again! Okay, I'll see you all in Shu then, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhi smiled at Tao Ming and said, "They agreed. We will come to see the goods tomorrow."
Tao Ming was overjoyed: "That's great!"
At this time, my cousin appeared at the door carrying watermelon: "Why are you here again? By the way, your brother-in-law bought a plate..."
"I've seen it, it's an authentic product from the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty." After Zhou Zhi received the colors from Tao Ming, he did some verbal processing: "Although there are many blue and white plates, the difference in craftsmanship is still very different.
My brother-in-law bought this, which is considered a top-quality product of its time."
"Really? As long as you don't buy it, it's fine." My cousin said, "This is a very important gift...to a customer. The money doesn't matter. If it's not genuine, that would be bad."
"It's definitely true, but the subject matter is not very good." Zhou Zhi turned the plate over: "Cousin, look, this is a picture of a military commander talking to a fisherman by the pavilion by the river. This is a play.
, called 'Jie Jian Pavilion'."
"Then this theme is not bad." My cousin said: "It's the fisherman who helped the general cross the river, and the general gave him a horse to express his gratitude, right? We also received help from others, and we wanted to give him something to express our gratitude, pretty much
of."
"That would be even more embarrassing." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "This general is called Wu Zixu. His whole family was killed by the King of Chu. He fled to the Kingdom of Wu alone. There were pursuers along the way. Finally, he was lucky enough to get the help of a fisherman to cross the river.
, handed the sword and horse to the fisherman, saying that he only had this little thing to repay him now, and asked him to leave his name so that he could repay him in the future, and asked the fisherman to promise himself not to tell the pursuers where he was going."
"The fisherman took the sword and told Wu Zixu that he only crossed the river because the Wu family was loyal and innocent, so he crossed the river. Now Wu Zixu gave him the sword and told him not to reveal his whereabouts, but he didn't believe him. He
I told Wu Zixu to rest assured that he would never do such a thing, and then he drew his sword and killed himself."
"Ah?" Jianhua's cousin and brother-in-law were both shocked by this story: "This, this is too..."
"So the fisherman is Wu Zixu's benefactor, but his fate was a bit miserable." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "My brother-in-law wants to use this to give to the people who helped him. Do you want to curse them?"
"Ouch!" Cousin Jianhua's face turned pale with fright, and she slapped Tao Ming on the back of his arm: "I told you to buy randomly! I told you to buy randomly! If you really give it away, you will offend someone to death!
"
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhou Zhi quickly waved his hand: "I contacted the people at the Shudu Cultural Relics Store. They are colleagues and easy to talk to. The store has agreed that we can exchange it for another one tomorrow."
"Can this be exchanged?" The cousin then patted her chest: "That's great, why is this thing so expensive if it's not for eating or drinking? If you really can't give it away, you can only put it at home, and you have to be careful not to knock it.
You are stumbling, you are not careful enough!”
"Yes, I will give it away when I get it tomorrow. If someone else's father hadn't been so kind, I would have been unlucky enough to tinker with this thing..."
Zhou Zhi silently drew circles in his mind, Brother-in-law, you can't help but praise me. What do you mean you are just trying to do this because you are unlucky...
After his cousin went to put Tongtong to sleep, Tao Ming wiped off a cold sweat and said, "Thanks to you for smoothing things over just now. If your sister knows that I spent more than 50,000 yuan to buy something worth 5,000 yuan, I will be scolded. You are making up this story."
The true roundness..."
"I'm not making this up. The story of Jie Jian Pavilion is really like this." Zhou Zhi couldn't laugh or cry: "But the theme on this plate is not the real Jie Jian Pavilion."
"Then what is painted on this plate?"
"It's Wujiang Biema, the Overlord of Chu..."
"Here I go, I really thought this was Wu Zixu just now..."
"Wu Zixu passed Zhaoguan and grew old overnight. If it were Wu Zixu, the subject matter would definitely reflect it."
"Just because you are scholars, can you deceive people as you please?"
"..." Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded: "How about you and your cousin read more historical allusions to avoid being deceived again in the future?"
"Tch, whoever plays this game in the future is a fool!"
"..."
There was no talking all night, and early the next morning, Tao Ming's brother-in-law asked his cousin to go to the factory, while he and Zhou Zhi went to the cultural relics store to exchange goods.
Seeing Zhou Zhi and Tao Ming, a man who looked like a manager immediately walked up and said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhou and Mr. Tao, right? I am Zhang Daguang, the manager of the cultural relics store."
"What happened last time was a serious mistake on our part. General Manager Fei has severely criticized us. Please follow me. No matter what happens today, I will give you a satisfactory explanation."
The approach of the Yuzhou Cultural Relics Store was quite clever. The person who seduced Tao Ming last time did not show up at all. The direct manager came to receive him. The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person made it difficult for Zhou Zhi and Tao Ming to get angry.
