Li Xiaoyao casually placed the Tang tri-color pottery on the counter and shouted at the busy owner inside, "Boss, do you appraise antiques here?"
The boss was a fat man in his forties, dressed in a traditional Chinese jacket with opposite fronts, wearing round glasses, looking very much like the owner of a pawnshop from the ancient times.
The fat boss turned around, head lowered, eyes lifted, scanning Li Xiaoyao, and asked, "Appraise what?"
Li Xiaoyao pointed to the Tang tri-color horse next to him and then patted the snake skin bag in his hand, "All of these."
The fat boss was instantly attracted by the Tang tri-color horse; he felt that it might actually be authentic.
The fat boss walked over, picked up the Tang tri-color horse, and examined it carefully. Seeming to find the shop's lighting too dim, he turned back to the shop assistant and said, "Turn the lights on."
The seriousness of the fat boss drew the attention of several customers in the shop.
