652 Smile
As she spoke, the sisters looked at the woman smugly.
When the woman heard this, she was furious. Her face was a little distorted, and it was so dark that it looked like it was about to drip water. She looked at her sisters with her mouth half-open and wanted to scold them, but because there were so many people, as the saying went, two fists could not defeat four hands. After thinking about it, she endured it in the end. Moreover, since others had already bought it, there was nothing she could do. It was impossible to stop the merchants from doing business.
Therefore, there was nothing she could do. After stomping her feet, she turned around and left with her tail between her legs like a homeless dog.
The passersby all clapped and cheered. This kind of person had to be taught a lesson. Otherwise, she really didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. She would go too far. She would always think that the entire world spoiled her and revolved around her.
The attendant was also very relieved. Usually, she often encountered such things, but she didn’t have the courage to say anything. In the past, she had tried to criticize them, but she was scolded by the person who cut the queue, causing her to be in a dilemma.
Now that someone had finally stepped forward, she could be considered to have vented her anger. She was much happier and moved much faster. After a while, she made the sisters’ meals.
Then, the sisters paid, took the desserts and milk tea, and brought Ye Xuan along. They happily ate the desserts as they walked into the antique street.
After crossing the ancient green arch, the noise suddenly fell into the ears of the sisters.
This kind of sound did not make them have the feeling of the street being noisy. Instead, it made people feel very lively, especially like a market.
On both sides of the street were some antique shops. The decorations were more classical and elegant, and they looked very good.
In front of the shops, there were many stalls on the street. They simply had a piece of black cloth. Then, they placed the items on it and it was done. The large items included all kinds of blue-and-white porcelain that were as tall as a person, and the small items included a ring. At a glance, there was a dazzling array of things, and they were especially novel.
Ye Xuan also took a casual look around. Most of the goods sold by these dealers were fakes, and it was rare for them to have real things. Moreover, even if they were real, they would bid separately. He really didn’t know where to pick up treasures. However, since his sisters were so interested, he could only go to the stalls to take a look.
At the thought of this, Ye Xuan brought his sisters to various stalls to look at the antiques. Although his Ninth Sister Ye Xue was an archaeologist, she still had a certain ability in appraising cultural relics. She could tell at a glance that these things were fake.
Not to mention picking up treasures, she didn’t even see many real goods. The only ones she saw were priced separately.
However, seeing many cultural relics stolen by tomb robbers made Ninth Sister Ye Xue’s heart ache. She had no idea how many cultural relics had been sent overseas and become the collection of those rich people. It was really sad.
Fortunately, most of the cultural relics were still preserved by the country and were in the museum. It was a blessing in disguise.
After shopping for a while, Fourth Sister Ye Chan took out her phone and opened the live-stream platform to prepare for the live-stream. At the same time, she changed the room to “Today, I’ll come to the antique street to pick up treasures!”
As soon as the live-stream started, tens of thousands of viewers naturally entered one after another. These people were all hardcore fans of Fourth Sister. Some of them were new viewers. When they suddenly saw this title, they entered with interest.
When Fourth Sister Ye Chan saw that there were about enough people, she turned around and whispered to her little brother, Ye Xuan.
“Little brother, I’m starting the live-stream. Cooperate with me and give me some live-stream effects.”
Ye Xuan was also helpless. After all, there was nothing to pick up here. However, the key was that the live-stream involved picking up treasures. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to find some old items at the stall to explain to everyone.
Then, he led his sisters to a street stall. He picked up a porcelain bowl from the street stall and asked the boss.
“Boss, what bowl is this? How much is it?”
When the boss saw that customers had arrived, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
“This bowl has a big background. It’s an authentic product from the Qing Dynasty. Back then, the Kangxi Emperor drank with it. If you really want it, I’ll sell it to you for 100,000 yuan.”
When Ye Xuan heard this, he was amused. This boss was really making things up without thinking. The moment he opened his mouth, he said that it was a bowl used by the Kangxi Emperor to drink. If word got out, he would laugh to death.
Putting aside the quality of this bowl, anyone who knew a little about history knew that the Kangxi Emperor had never liked to drink since he was young. Although he could drink, he did not like to drink. Usually, he would only drink a small cup unless there was something serious, let alone leave a bowl specially used for drinking.
Moreover, the things that the emperor used were incomparably precious. They belonged to the Dragon Cup and Dragon Bowl collections. The decorations were different from other things. They were out of print. This kind of bowl looked very common. If the emperor really used them, countless people would be beheaded.
Therefore, Ye Xuan had an idea. He held the bowl and turned to the camera with a smile.
“Ah, everyone, look at this bowl. The boss said that it’s a bowl used by the Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to drink wine. The emperor usually uses a cup to drink wine. Generally, he won’t use a bowl. Moreover, even if he uses a bowl, it’s carved with dragon patterns. At the very least, it’s much better looking than other bowls. This kind of bowl is very popular. Not to mention the Qing Dynasty, even the Republic of China thinks too highly of it. This bowl is made in the modern era. I don’t know which factory it belongs to. The patterns on this porcelain are obviously carved by a laser. Moreover, look at the connection between this bowl and its bottom. You can already see the cracks and the additional defective piece of mud. Therefore, this bowl is obviously a fake.”
“There’s also this. This is amazing. Friends, this is amazing.”
As Ye Xuan spoke, he put down the porcelain bowl and picked up a huge cauldron beside him. He looked at the cell phone camera and smiled.
“This boss is really amazing. I’m not bragging, but do you know what kind of cauldron this cauldron is? This is one of the nine cauldrons made by Yu the Great back then. It’s just like the jade seal. I don’t need to say much about its meaning, right? Only the cauldrons made by Yu the Great look like this. Or rather, I should say that the boss is amazing. He even found the cauldron of Yu the Great and priced it at a million yuan. If this cauldron is real, I’ll buy it back even if I have to sell everything. I’ll directly become an emperor on the spot.”
Ye Xuan smiled as he spoke. Then, he put down the cauldron and picked up a ring from the stall before continuing.
“This ring looks very much like agate. The ring is platinum, right? If you really think so, you have to be careful. This kind of ring is specially designed to deceive you newbies. Let’s take a closer look at this ring. It’s not light or heavy, but it’s a little different from the weight of platinum. Moreover, the texture is not good. The key is that it’s relatively hard. From this, we know that this is iron, not platinum. Then, look at this agate. Hehe, this looks like agate, but in fact, look at this cutting surface. It’s not very smooth at first glance. Moreover, there are serrations at the details and the color is not pure. It’s too different from the color of agate. In terms of weight, it’s not suitable to call it real agate. It’s a normal gem. Therefore, after appraisal, this agate ring is a modern handicraft. It’s worth a few yuan at most. It can’t be worth more than five yuan.”
