By the time Ye Tian arrived at the Chelsea Flea Market, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

It is the most popular time here, and the market is crowded with people inside and outside. It is very lively.

Chelsea Flea Market is a street market next to Madison Park and close to the Flatiron Building. It has a relatively large space and is a long-established flea market with a history of 40 years. It is very famous throughout the New York area.

There are about 135 stalls here, most of which sell all kinds of secondhand goods, antiques, and handicrafts, and some are food stalls.

Different from other flea markets, this place not only sells antiques, used goods, and gourmet food, but also has a stray dog ​​adoption agency setting up stalls here to find cute **** scavengers for dogs.

Every weekend, this market attracts many people from all over New York, and even many from other cities.

Everyone comes here for different purposes. Some come to shop for treasures, some come to taste delicious food, and some come to experience New York culture. This is New York’s outdoor museum.

After paying $1 to enter the market, Ye Tian took out his mobile phone and started to contact Jason.

It's lunch time now, just in time to treat him to a hot dog and get to know the situation here.

After a passionate rock music session, the phone call was answered.

"Hello, I'm Jason, who am I?"

"I'm Steven. I've arrived in Chelsea. Where is your stall? I'll find you"

"Stand No. 48, you can see it all the way along the middle aisle, I am right here"

"OK, let's get over it"

After saying that, Ye Tian hung up the phone and walked inside.

While following the crowd, Ye Tian kept scanning the stalls on both sides of the aisle in order to find the treasures that dazzled him.

The quality of the Chelsea Flea Market is obviously higher than that of DUBO, with more second-hand goods, more people searching for treasures, and frequent transactions.

Of course, there are more antiques shining in Ye Tian's eyes.

Less than ten meters forward, Ye Tian has seen white light many times, with different brightness levels. It basically covers antiques from various eras in the past century, some of which are valuable, and some of which are of little value.

In addition to these, there are several eye-catching red rays of light. These are antiques from the 19th century, mostly from the middle to late period. These antiques have uneven halos of thickness and have certain artistic value.

This discovery made him very excited. It seemed that he would have a good harvest today!

But it’s not time to go treasure hunting yet, it’s time to go eat!

Since possessing this power, Ye Tian found that his food intake increased a lot, his digestion and absorption speed also accelerated, and he easily felt hungry.

Obviously, one's own superpowers cannot help but consume antique spiritual energy and calories.

Continuing forward, Ye Tian saw Jason's stall. There was a sign in front of it that said Benny's Secondhand Store.

There were several customers in front of the stall. Jason and two colleagues were busy introducing the goods. When they saw Ye Tian coming, they immediately smiled and nodded to him, indicating that he would wait a moment.

Ye Tian nodded in agreement, then stood aside and waited.

With nothing to do, he began to scan the second-hand stalls.

You don’t need to think about second-hand goods. You just pass by them. Second-hand goods sold in second-hand stores are the last link in the sales chain and are not profitable at all.

There is absolutely no need to waste time unless there is something you need or particularly like.

Ye Tian's eyes were quickly attracted by several items on the stall that shone with white light, as well as a clock that radiated crimson light.

Based on the light emitted by the clock and its appearance, Ye Tian made a basic judgment in an instant.

This is a classical style gilt copper clock. It is very gorgeous. It comes from the early 19th century. It can operate normally and is well protected.

And from the thickness of the halo, it can be determined that the artistic value of this clock is not low, and it should be very valuable!

Benny’s second-hand store has a lot of treasures! I came to the flea market to set up a stall, and I was willing to take out so many antiques. It seemed like a well-established second-hand store.

Then, Ye Tian looked at where these antiques were placed, and he immediately understood that these treasures were by no means cheap!

Any antiques that radiate light are in the inner position, next to the few shop assistants, within easy reach.

This shows that they know the value of these things very well.

This is especially true for the antique clock. It is not only placed in the inner position, but also covered with a transparent glass cover and white gloves next to it. It is obviously provided for people to appreciate.

Seeing this, Ye Tian immediately lost interest and looked back at the exchange between Jason and the customer.

……

Two or three minutes later.

Jason completed the transaction with the customer in his fifties and sold a set of beautiful coffee cups for US$40. Both parties were very satisfied.

After handing the money to his accounting colleague, Jason immediately walked over with a smile.

"Hey, Steven, I've been waiting for a long time"

"It doesn't matter, it only lasts a few minutes"

After a few words of greeting, Jason introduced Ye Tian to his colleagues.

"This is Steven, the amazing guy! He was the one who picked up a Ruger P08 at the $1 Junk Warehouse!"

"Wow! God's beloved has arrived!"

The female clerk who collected the money said enviously, and another black guy in his early twenties also had an envious expression on his face.

Ye Tian smiled and stepped forward to say hello.

"Hello, I am Ye Tian, ​​nice to meet you"

"Hey, I'm Miranda, nice to meet you, lucky guy!"

"Hey, I'm Parker!"

Both clerks shook hands with Ye Tian, ​​hugged each other, and said their names.

Ye Tian then said with a wry smile:

"I am not God's favorite! The situation before was very bad! Jason understands that this time it is just luck!"

Jason nodded slightly to his two colleagues, confirming that he was right.

"That's also very good. It means that your bad luck has passed and good days have begun! It will definitely be smoother in the future"

Miranda said with a smile, this fat girl is obviously very kind.

After standing and chatting for a few words, Ye Tian couldn't hold on anymore. His stomach kept protesting, he was hungry!

The growling sound from his stomach was also heard by Jason and the others, and they all had smiles on their faces.

Ye Tian couldn’t care less about his demeanor and said quickly:

"Jason, have you had lunch? If not, let's go get something to eat together, just that hot dog you mentioned. I'm so hungry that I can't stand it anymore."

“Brother, you don’t look like you just got rich! Instead, you look like a refugee!”

Jason teased him.

"Hahaha"

Miranda and Parker both laughed.

"I'm afraid the refugees are better than me. I'm so hungry now that I can eat an elephant! Hurry up! If you don't want to go, then I will go by myself"

Ye Tian said with a wry smile, and then prepared to leave and go to the hot dog stand not far away.

"Let's go together! I haven't eaten anything either!"

Jason turned around and told Miranda and the others a few words before quickly following them.

"The clock on your stall is very beautiful. How much does it cost? If the price is right, I intend to buy it"

While walking towards the hot dog stand, Ye Tian pretended to ask casually.

Maybe there are leaks that can be picked up!

But Jason’s next answer made him understand that he was overthinking!

"Man, of course that clock is very beautiful! Everyone likes it! It is an early 19th century classical style clock, from a European royal family, priced at US$200,000.

If you can afford this price, then you can own it and make it your collection. Believe me, this antique will definitely enhance the owner's quality! How about it? are you buying? "

Jason half-jokingly mentioned the price of the clock. He didn’t believe that Ye Tian had such strength!

"Wow! It's too expensive! Buy it? Then I have to sell both kidneys, which may not be enough!"

Ye Tian pretended to be surprised and sighed, the price was similar to his estimate.

The owner of Benny’s second-hand store obviously knows this clock very well, and there’s no way he can take advantage of it!

"That thing is too far away from us! Just look at it with envy! Want to own it? It is too difficult!"

"How did you bring such a precious clock to the flea market? Will anyone buy it here?"

Ye Tian was very puzzled.

Will someone spend $150,000 to buy an antique clock at a flea market? Give me a break!

"Of course no one bought it! The purpose of bringing it here was not to sell it at all, but to market it and let everyone see the strength of our second-hand store.

At the same time, it can also be used to attract attention and make people pay more attention to our stall. This is the real purpose. To put it bluntly, this is a sign! ”

"So, this clock is really eye-catching"

While talking, they arrived at the hot dog stand, and the two of them started queuing up to buy hot dogs.

The hot dogs here look really good, as can be seen from the expectant expressions of people queuing up and the aroma coming from them.

The queue is quite long, and it will take a few minutes before I get there.

Taking this time, Ye Tian began to learn about the Chelsea Flea Market from Jason.

……

Fifteen minutes later.

After Jason finished enjoying his two hot dogs, he was staring at Ye Tian, ​​who was devouring them, dumbfounded.

This is already the fifth time he has eaten, and it is still like a storm!

"Steven, how long has it been since you had a full meal? Why are you so hungry? You look like you just came out of the concentration camp! I'm really worried about your stomach! Can you pretend to hold so many hot dogs?"

"Don't worry, there's no problem, this hot dog is really good! Delicious!"

Ye Tian raised his head and praised, then continued to deal with the last hot dog in front of him.

Until the hot dog was completely destroyed, he ended the lunch with satisfaction.

"Man, you are so good at eating! You should participate in the Big Eater Hot Dog Contest, you will definitely win the championship!"

Jason sighed, still with an expression of disbelief on his face.

After eating and drinking, the two of them started to return to the stall, carrying the hot dogs they had brought for Miranda and the others.

"Tell me about your harvest in DUMBO. Did you find anything good?"

"I did collect a few things, all of them bits and pieces. One of them is a set of silver tableware that looks like an antique, but I'm not sure. I took a photo and you can help me find out their origins."

As Ye Tian said that, he took out his cell phone and showed Jason a photo of the tableware.

He checked the origin of the silver tableware online when he got back at noon, but couldn't find it out. The reason why he told Jason now was to see if he could figure it out through him.

Jason definitely doesn’t have such a high level of appreciation, otherwise he wouldn’t be just a store clerk.

But his boss level is definitely not bad, which can be seen from the antique clocks and other antiques on the stall.

And second-hand stores are inextricably linked to the antique circle, and it is easy to find out this information through their channels.

Hearing what Ye Tian said, Jason immediately became interested. He took Ye Tian's phone and started checking it.

There is only one silver spoon in the photo. In addition to the overall shape, there is also a close-up of the special mark, which is very clear.

"This dining spoon is really old. It seems to be a bit old. As for "J" being the craftsman's personal logo, I don't know. I need to go back and check carefully."

The result was just as Ye Tian thought. Jason couldn't see the reason at all.

But it doesn’t matter, doesn’t he still have a boss?

Ye Tian immediately continued:

"Send this photo to your boss and ask him to help identify it. Just say it belongs to a friend, okay?"

Jason nodded and responded:

"It's just a small thing, Benny won't refuse"

"Awesome!"

Ye Tian took his phone back and immediately sent the photo to Jason, who then forwarded it to his boss.

Soon, Benny called and asked about other details of the tableware, and then said that he would find someone to research it and would reply later. After that, there was no news.

Ye Tian did not wait any longer. He came back and said hello to Miranda and the others. He left the stall and began to sweep the Chelsea Flea Market
