He stopped and ran behind the pawn counter to do the appraisal work.
Li Tianyu chatted with Wu Mingzhe, Jiang Lan, and Lv Xiaoyan.
Li Tianyu had shown that he was an antique expert just now, so Lv Xiaoyan started to pay more attention to him.
Li Tianyu was also very smart. As for why he knew how to appraise antiques, he said that he learned it all by himself.
"When I was free, I often watched some variety shows about antiques appraisal. Gradually, I understood it," Li Tianyu said.
Lv Xiaoyan was stunned by this reason.
There was a time when variety shows about antiques appraisal were indeed very popular. However, how could one become an expert just by watching those kinds of shows?
It was a bit unbelievable.
At this time, Li Tianyu did not intend to dwell on this issue.
In fact, he was not very interested in antiques and had no intention to develop in this area.
Li Tianyu stood up and began to pretend to look at the objects in the display cabinet.
The things in the display cabinet were all bought out. The pawner took the pawned things and sold them directly at the buyout price. They would not be redeemed in the future.
At this time, Li Tianyu stopped and saw a black box in the display cabinet.
This box was long and was obviously made of wood. The surface should have been black, but maybe because it was too old, it had become mottled and faded.
Lv Xiaoyan said, "Are you interested in this sandalwood box?"
Li Tianyu pondered for a moment. "This box should be used to store paintings, right?"
Lv Xiaoyan nodded. "Yes, an old man brought it here. He said that the paintings inside had been sold to others. He had no use for them, so he brought it here to sell."
Li Tianyu said, "Can you take it out and let me have a look?"
Lv Xiaoyan was stunned. "Okay, wait a minute."
Lv Xiaoyan went backstage, took the key from the counter, lifted the counter, and took out the wooden box.
Wu Mingzhe and Jiang Lan also walked over curiously and gathered around to watch.
Wu Mingzhe: "Tianyu, what do you want this box for?"
Jiang Lan punched Wu Mingzhe. "What are you talking about? This is called antique!"
Wu Mingzhe still wanted to say something, but Jiang Lan glared at him.
Li Tianyu ignored them. He opened the box and studied it before putting it down.
"How much is this?"
Lv Xiaoyan was startled. Could it be that he still wanted to buy it?
"This … Let me take a look …"
As she spoke, Lv Xiaoyan took out a form from under the counter and checked it.
It wasn't that she wasn't professional, but that very few people would buy such things.
"This one is 135,000."
Wu Mingzhe was shocked. "What? One hundred thirty-five thousand? RMB? "
Lv Xiaoyan nodded. "Because after the appraisal, this box is from the beginning of the Qing Dynasty. It's well-preserved, so the price is higher."
Wu Mingzhe wanted to say something but stopped. It was as if he was saying, "How can this be well-preserved?"
"I want it."
Before Li Tianyu finished speaking, the other three people were shocked and were stunned on the spot.
Wu Mingzhe was the first to react. He hurriedly pulled Li Tianyu to the side and bitterly persuaded him.
"Tianyu, don't be like this. Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this."
"Have you taken a fancy to Lv Xiaoyan 'er? If you like her, let's go out and have a chat. Don't use such a stupid and rich method … "
"Look at that broken box. It's so long. Even if you use it to store things, you can't put much in it, let alone use it as a coffin!"
Li Tianyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This kid's words were getting more and more ridiculous. He hurriedly stopped him.
"Don't worry. This thing won't be a loss."
Wu Mingzhe was stunned. Could it be that this broken thing could be sold at a higher price?
At this time, Ye Fuguo came over with Ding Hao. He wanted to arrange other things. When he saw the situation here, he also came over curiously.
Ye Fuguo laughed. "Hey, little brother, are you ready to buy?"
When he saw what Li Tianyu wanted to buy, Ye Fuguo showed a surprised look.
Even he didn't understand why Li Tianyu wanted to buy this box.
Although this thing was not common, it was just a container for storing things. There was no room for appreciation at all.
However, Ye Fuguo didn't blindly express his opinion. In the antique business, experience was very important, but more important was affinity.
Ding Hao showed a look of disdain.
This wasn't something that an expert would buy. Li Tianyu was clearly showing off his cowardice and showing off too much.
Ding Hao said, "Xiaoyan, since this gentleman wants to buy it, let him pay the bill. By the way, we can't use credit cards here!"
Li Tianyu took out his bank card. "Pay the bill."
Wu Mingzhe's eyes almost popped out. This guy really wanted to buy it!
Lv Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, but still found the card machine. She picked up Li Tianyu's bank card and read it.
She entered the password.
One hundred and thirty-five thousand RMB was deducted.
Li Tianyu's expression didn't change. He was as calm as an ancient well.
Lv Xiaoyan sighed. She didn't expect him to be a rich man. Unfortunately, he was too rich.
Ding Hao looked at Lv Xiaoyan and then at Li Tianyu. He was secretly pleased.
It seemed that Li Tianyu's "evil plan" didn't succeed.
However, Li Tianyu said to Ye Fuguo, "Mr. Ye, help me take a look."
Ye Fuguo was stunned. "Look at what?"
"The thing in this box."
"But it's empty inside …"
Suddenly, Ye Fuguo seemed to have thought of something. "… Are you saying that inside …"
Li Tianyu picked up the rectangular wooden box and exerted force.
"Kacha!"
Under everyone's gaze, the box, which was worth 135,000 yuan, was broken by Li Tianyu.
"F * ck!"
The rest of the people present were really shocked.
Li Tianyu had spent more than a hundred thousand yuan just to hear the sound of a bell?
How the f * ck was this a nouveau riche!
He was clearly a crazy rich man!
His head was crushed! His donkey was kicked! No, his head was kicked by a donkey!
Ye Fuguo was the only one who didn't look surprised. Instead, he focused on the "corpse in the box".
"There … There's really something inside …"
At that moment, everyone saw clearly that there was a piece of … cloth in the broken box?
Ding Hao exclaimed, "It's silk!"
It turned out that there was a gap in the box, and there was something hidden in the gap.
Ye Fuguo was more excited than anyone else. "Quick! Take it out! "
Li Tianyu carefully pulled out the silk cloth and unfolded it on the counter.
A picture scroll was displayed in front of everyone's eyes.
"… Mr. Ye, this can't be …" Ding Hao looked at it and couldn't help but say.
Ye Fuguo looked serious. "Bring me my tools."
Ding Hao scrambled to the backstage to get Ye Fuguo's toolbox.
The toolbox contained Ye Fuguo's tools.
Why was Ye Fuguo so excited?
