C19 A Fool

In Antique City.

The buildings in Antique City imitated the style of ancient times. Red bricks, green tiles, sandalwood houses. When one walked in, there was an elegant fragrance.

The two sides of the road were filled with hawkers, and there were many 'treasures' on the ground.

"Quickly come and take a look! This was a newly unearthed Ming Dynasty antique. I definitely won't lie, they are all real antiques! "

" These antiques are all real. You can tell their quality with just a glance. You won't lose out if you buy them. "

"These are high quality Xuande porcelain. The price is very low right now. It's only sold for 10,000 dollars!"

The shouts of these people attracted many people to stop and watch.

Ye Chen and Bai Xiaocheng also squeezed into the crowd and carefully observed the antiques.

"Ye Chen, I brought a lot of money today. As long as you like to open your mouth at any time, I will buy it for you."

Bai Xiaocheng patted his chest. He had money, so he was full of confidence.

"Thank you!"

Ye Chen smiled and nodded. He did not say that he had over ten million yuan.

Firstly, Bai Xiaocheng might not believe it. Secondly, he did not want to be so high-profile.

"How about this blue and white porcelain? It's workmanship is exquisite, and the phoenix pattern is perfectly outlined."

Bai Xiaocheng was very fond of that Xuande porcelain artifact.

Ye Chen shook his head. "If you want to keep it, then you can buy it back. But if you want to make money from it, then it's impossible. "

"Why? Do you know antiques?" Bai Xiaocheng asked.

"The design of this porcelain is an imitation of Elemental Blue Flower. But the Elemental Blue Flower and the painting from the Qian Long era were both drawn with a stroke. There was also a difference in color between the two. But look carefully at the phoenix wings on this porcelain. It wasn't drawn with a stroke at all."

"This porcelain is indeed authentic, but it was from the late Qing period, it only had historical value, no economic value"

Ye Chen spoke frankly and confidently, shocking Bai Xiaocheng.

He could understand every word Ye Chen said, but why couldn't he understand when these words were put together?

But he understood one thing. This porcelain was worthless. At least it was not as valuable as what the stall owner said.

"Ye Chen, you are too amazing! How did you learn all this?"

"I have read some books about antiques."

"You're amazing!"

The two of them left the stall and continued to stroll around.

An hour passed, but Ye Chen did not buy a single antique.

Bai Xiaocheng was already very fat, and he was very tired right now.

"Bai Pangzi, you go and rest for a while. I will walk around by myself."

"Okay!" Bai Xiaocheng was waiting for this sentence. He turned around and went straight to the milk tea shop.

Ye Chen continued to stroll around. He only stopped when he reached an antique shop.

"Hello, how much is this necklace for?"

The waiter quickly walked over. "Sir, you have good taste. This necklace was a good thing. Its necklace is made of platinum material and the pendant is a blood jade. The price of this necklace is only 60,000 yuan. "

" Wait! "

Suddenly, a shout interrupted the waiter's words.

A man slowly walked over. He was Lin Kang, whom Ye Chen had not seen for a long time.

Compared to before, he had removed a lot of childishness, and his face was also angular.

He had a sarcastic look on his face. "Ye Chen, since when did a poor student like you be able to afford antiques?"

Lin Kang said to the waiter, "You have been selling antiques for so long. Don't tell me you don't even have the ability to see people? His clothes are so shabby. Can he afford such expensive antiques? There are still many customers who are unattended, but you are wasting your time on a person who can't afford antiques! You don't want this job anymore, do you?"

" Sorry, I will receive the other guests right away. "

The waiter didn't dare to anger Lin Kang, so he went to the side to take care of the other guests.

However, Lin Kang's voice was very loud. Everyone knew that there was a good show to watch. How could they have the energy to look at antiques?

"Mr. Lin, take a good look at this painting. I will sell it at a low price, and it will be sold for 10,000 yuan. I need money urgently."

At this time, a middle-aged man walked in with a painting in his hand.

But anyone with discerning eyes could tell that the painting was ordinary. It was a fake painting.

Lin Kang cursed, "How dare you sell a fake painting for ten thousand? Do you think I'm a charity? What does your urgent need for money have to do with me?"

"Mr. Lin, my family used to be a royal family. It's impossible for my family to keep a fake painting as a family heirloom."

"Get lost. If you don't get lost, don't blame me for being rude."

The middle-aged man sighed heavily. He didn't dare to speak anymore.

"How much is this necklace?" Ye Chen only wanted to buy the necklace.

"You are rich? You can even afford an antique necklace?"

Lin Kang had been hanging out with his cousin Jia Sheng recently. With his fierce strength, he became a small leader.

This antique store was the place he was looking after. He had invested in it, so he had a lot of right to speak.

"How much is it?" Ye Chen didn't want to bother with him.

"What are you pretending for? Can your good grades be used as money? Everyone look at this person. He is our city's joint examination's first place. But he is very poor. He lives in a rented house that is only seven or eight square meters. He has nothing. The only thing he has is good grades! "

Everyone shook their heads and laughed lightly.

In their eyes, good grades were useless. No matter how good one's grades were, it was impossible for them to earn tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in a year.

As for those who could buy antiques, they were naturally all wealthy.

"Are you selling or not? You really have a lot of nonsense to say!" Ye Chen's voice was cold. He looked like he wanted to make a move at any moment.

Lin Kang coldly harrumphed. He knew that he was no match for Ye Chen, so he naturally wouldn't offend Ye Chen immediately.

He had already sent a message to his cousin. This time, his cousin would bring a hundred people with him.

He didn't believe that Ye Chen could escape from his grasp.

"You really want to buy it? Alright, since you and I used to be classmates, I'll sell it to you at a cheaper price. It costs two hundred thousand, you can't bargain."

"Okay, I'll pay with my card." Ye Chen calmly took out his bank card and handed it to Lin Kang.

Lin Kang was stunned.

Where did Ye Chen get so much money from?

He thought for a while and smiled. "You won't fool me with an empty card, will you? You know there are many people here, so you're embarrassed? But in a while, if this card doesn't have money, you'll lose even more face. "

" Don't buy this necklace so easily. "

Some people in the crowd saw this scene and felt that they couldn't bear it. He reminded, "Little brother, the most valuable part of this necklace is the blood jade. This blood jade has a lot of impurities, and its quality is not high. This necklace is not even worth twenty to thirty thousand. "

"Cut the crap, I've already sold it to him."

Lin Kang had already received the money. He did not expect Ye Chen to have so much money.

He smiled, and his eyes narrowed into a line.

He had only spent ten thousand to buy this piece of jade. Even if he processed this piece of jade and combined it with the platinum chain, it was not worth thirty thousand.

Ye Chen, this fool, actually spent two hundred thousand to buy this necklace. This made him earn a large sum of money in vain.

"He is obviously cheating you! Your grades are so good, why can't you see it?" That person had a look of disappointment.

"He only knows how to study, but he is actually a fool!"

"That's right, the education nowadays is all for the exam. Those who study well are all fools."

"He lacks common sense in life, and he doesn't even have the ability to read people's expressions. No matter how good his grades are, he's still a bookworm"

Ye Chen took the necklace and finally smiled.

When the middle-aged man who sold the painting saw that Ye Chen was a fool, he suddenly became lively.

"What do you think of my painting? I'll only sell it for 50,000!"
