Chapter 292 - 292 281 A Blind Cat Runs into a Dead Mouse
?Chapter 292: Chapter 281: A Blind Cat Runs into a Dead Mouse Chapter 292: Chapter 281: A Blind Cat Runs into a Dead Mouse Master Sun’s previously collected good items had all been transported to Hong Kong, and the recent high-quality acquisitions had been taken in by Master Qian. The shop was only left with ordinary antiques. Of course, only the items behind the counter were authentic; the items displayed on the floor were either from the Republic era or simply artisanal pieces.
Lu Jiaxin glanced around and, seeing nothing she liked, took Gu Wenfeng and the others to browse the antique market. While strolling, they saw a vibrantly colored oil painting at one of the stalls.
The stall owner, seeing her interest, said with a smile, “Miss, this painting came from the West, and it’s only two hundred yuan.”
Lu Jiaxin smiled back and said, “Ten yuan.”
The stall owner didn’t shoo her away but made it clear that he couldn’t sell for that price, encouraging her to look at other items: “I’ve put a lot of effort into collecting these, they are all quality goods.”
Lu Jiaxin looked around and spotted an enamel peony flower-shaped snuff bottle. She picked it up for a closer look, finding the coloring to be exceptionally fine: “Boss, how much for this one?”
“This snuff bottle was used by Emperor Yongzheng, one thousand yuan, fixed price.”
This was an outrageous asking price; an uninformed buyer might get seriously overcharged. However, in the antique business, all sales are final. No matter how high the price, if you buy it, you can’t go back to the seller even if the item is appraised as a fake. Of course, private retaliation is another matter.
Lu Jiaxin spoke up, “I genuinely like this snuff bottle, give me a fair price.”
