After binding to the Shenhao system, the big boss became rich and brought the motherland

Chapter 163 163. I didn’t expect Gu Nanqiao to be so good at bargaining
"I heard there are a lot of antiques here, I want to come and see them."

It is said that if you want to find out more reliable local information, you must look for street vendors. They come into contact with people traveling from all over the country every day, so naturally they are more well-informed.

So Gu Nanqiao was not disgusted by the woman's familiarity and started chatting with her instead.

Just while eating a bowl of snail noodles, I got a lot of information about antiques from the woman.

For example, larger antique shops will generally rip off their customers.

For example, although some vendors outside sell cheap things, basically there is nothing good about them.

For example, there is a competition in the antique market every month.

Today happens to be game day, which is why there are so many food trucks gathered at the door.

Gu Nanqiao bought several more bottles of water, and finally took Xiaowu to Xiaoliu Market.

Looking around, you can see all kinds of vegetarian food.

What are Baohezhai, Cuiyuzhai, Linlangzhai...

The shops all look about the same size, and from the outside, there is a wide variety of antiques inside.

Gu Nanqiao casually walked into an antique shop, and immediately a shopping guide came over and asked, "Little girl, do you want to look at it or buy it?"

"I'll just take a look."

If you see something that catches your eye, you can buy it.

Maybe because Gu Nanqiao was dressed very ordinary, and looked like a schoolgirl except for the two burly men in casual clothes following her, he didn't show much enthusiasm and just said, "Then take your time to look around." Then he turned around and greeted other guests.

Gu Nanqiao didn't care, he was just taking a look anyway.

But she really knew nothing about antiques and could only look at the styles at best.

In order to understand it, I asked 9528 for a study card.

Maybe it was because Gu Nanqiao hadn't moved for too long, and had been staring at one place, occasionally looking down at her phone, that the shopping guide came up to her again, "Little girl, do you like this cup?"

Gu Nanqiao was stunned, retracted his gaze, and replied, "No."

The shopping guide looked unhappy when she heard this. "Since you don't like it and don't plan to buy it, then go to the next door and have a look."

Gu Nanqiao just raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything, but he was still somewhat uncomfortable with the shopping guide's attitude of sending customers away just because they were looking but not buying.

After taking a quick look around, he really didn't see anything that caught his eye, nor were there any valuable antiques. He just glanced at the shopping guide and left the antique shop.

So I don’t know why the current social atmosphere is like this. Since you have chosen to work in the service industry, isn’t service the important thing?
As a result, everyone only cares about performance and loses the mood to go shopping.

Finally, we found a random roadside stall. There was only a piece of floral cloth spread on the ground, and it was covered with a wide variety of things. The vendor was sitting on a folding chair, eating and shouting.

Seeing Gu Nanqiao stop walking, the vendor even stopped eating. He just covered the thermos bucket and wrapped the chopsticks with a paper towel. "Little girl, what do you want to see? I have everything here, and the price is cheap."

"I'll just take a look."

The vendor said nonchalantly, "It's okay to just look at it. These things are put out there for everyone to look at anyway."

"Of course, it's fine if you want to. Just don't break anything, and feel free to look and touch."

After saying that, he scratched his head and said, "But if you just want to take a look, I'll eat first!"

Gu Nanqiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's okay, just eat it." This vendor was quite interesting.

Seeing the vendor pick up the thermos bucket to eat again, Gu Nanqiao squatted down and took the thing that interested him in his hands to play with it.

Although the stall is small, just as the vendor said, there are several of each type and the variety is very complete.

Finally, Gu Nanqiao's gaze fell on the agate bracelet beside him.

It's not like ordinary red, but dark brown red. If you look closely, it seems to have a little black gold purple. Each one is round and full, but it doesn't look shiny.

Gu Nanqiao picked up the bracelet and asked, "Boss, how much do you sell it for?"

The vendor took one look and said, "If you want this, it'll be two thousand dollars."

"I'm only asking you for 2,000 yuan because you're a little girl. If it were someone else, I'd give you 20,000 yuan."

The corners of Gu Nanqiao's mouth twitched. This kind of rhetoric could only fool girls of seventeen or eighteen years old.

Putting down the bracelet, Gu Nanqiao shook his head, "It's too expensive, forget it."

Seeing that Gu Nanqiao was about to leave, the vendor immediately asked, "How much do you think this bracelet should cost?"

Gu Nanqiao seemed to think about it seriously, and finally blinked his eyes and said, "Two hundred."

The peddler was stunned. He didn't expect Gu Nanqiao to be so good at bargaining.

But even if this bracelet only sells for two hundred yuan, he will still make a profit.

Because he had picked up this bracelet from a trash can before, and the style looked pretty good, so he took it home, washed it, and put it in a brocade box, and it became a new bracelet.

"Of course you can, but it's just that bracelet."

Gu Nanqiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, as if he was afraid that the vendor would go back on his word. He immediately took out his wallet from his backpack, took out two pink RMB notes and handed them to the vendor.

After the vendor took the money, Gu Nanqiao threw the bracelet directly into his backpack, as if it were an unimportant item.

So Gu Nanqiao visited several roadside stalls and collected some bottles and jars.

Because I bought them all at the stalls, there were no boxes or fancy bags, I just put them in a plastic bag and carried them in my hands like a rag collector.

But Xiaowu and Xiaoliu are there, and even if they look like ragpickers, that person will definitely not be Gu Nanqiao.

The reason why Gu Nanqiao bought so many items at the stall was simply to participate in the antique competition later.

I heard from that woman before that the so-called antique competition was not held for merchants, but for customers who buy antiques.

The criteria for the competition are the antiques purchased by the customers. The one with the highest collection value will be selected from a large number of antiques. A medal will be awarded, along with the qualification to enter the antique evening party.

What Gu Nanqiao cared about was not the medal, but the so-called party.

After all, there will definitely be a lot of celebrities gathering there by then. Isn’t this a perfect resource?

The reason why she bought from the vendor instead of in the store was that there were really no particularly good things in the store, and the other reason was, of course, what the woman had said before, that generally good things were in the stalls, but they required careful discovery.

After all, the peddler may not know much about antiques. He just collects some antiques at low prices and then sells them at high prices. He himself does not even know the price of the items themselves.

There was a precedent before, where an inconspicuous cup, covered with dust, was bought by someone for a few dozen dollars. It turned out that the cup was actually handed down from ancient times and was worth billions.
