After lunch, everyone continued to set off, but did not leave Danville, but came to a courtyard market in Danville.
This is a relatively important and large courtyard market in Corridor 127. There are dozens of stalls. Since you are passing by here, of course you can't miss it.
There are many people in the market, most of them are local residents, and there are also many professional treasure hunters who come here after a long journey. You can tell by the numerous RVs outside the market.
At this time, most of the people driving RVs in the 127 corridor are professional treasure hunters.
Similar to other places, Ye Tian walked into this open-air market and immediately felt the attention from all around.
Every glance is very hot, with envy, jealousy, surprise, fear, and a little fear.
There is no doubt that almost everyone here knows themselves and knows what they have gained today!
But so what? No matter how cautious you are, don't try to stop your brothers from sweeping up treasures here, if you have treasures here!
Ye Tian stood at the entrance and glanced at the stalls in the market. He instantly understood what the stalls in front of him had and whether it was worth taking action.
Afterwards, he took Betty to visit the courtyard market, looking for the treasure he wanted. Jason and Sophie also walked into the market to experience the fun of treasure hunting together.
Walker and an armed security guard followed three meters behind to protect them without disturbing them.
Of course, reporters followed closely, looking forward to Ye Tian discovering the heavyweight treasure again! That will definitely be another very interesting news!
There are also a dozen professional treasure hunters who have been following, and they are also following behind now, looking for treasures themselves while paying attention to Ye Tian.
Seeing their huge team, everyone in the market was stunned. Who had ever seen people visiting a courtyard market like this! What an eye-opener!
It’s just Steven, the bastard, who else can be so arrogant?
At the same time, every stall owner in the market has become more vigilant.
No one wants to be the one left out, let alone the protagonist of a tragedy, and become the subject of conversation and ridicule among peers!
As Ye Tian and the others walked by, there was a buzz of discussion in the market.
"The **** Steven is finally here! I don't know if he can find the treasure here! I don't know that the guy is going to be unlucky today!"
“It is inevitable for our industry to be picked up, but this is the first time I have heard of Steven’s crazy way of picking up bugs, which is so outrageous that both humans and gods are outraged. It is so exaggerated!
Brother, I must be extra careful today. Even if I don’t do his business, I don’t want to be caught by this **** **** and hide in the toilet and cry when I get back! "
This is a good courtyard market. Most of the stalls are antique dealers, and there are also some good products on the stalls.
After only visiting two stalls, Ye Tian saw three or four antiques of some value that made him a little excited, and there were many more antiques that were old but worthless.
Although he discovered something, he did not take action immediately!
It's better to leave these things to Bowie. It's not appropriate to take action himself. Didn't you see that the eyes of these stall owners are green! Just waiting to be killed!
Of course, you still need to know the price.
When he reached the fourth stall, he stopped, pointed to an enamel cigarette case in Russian decorative style and asked:
"Man! How much is this cigarette case? It looks pretty good!"
This is an enamel cigarette case from the 1930s. It is in good condition and has a beautiful appearance. It radiates white light and has two layers of halo. It has some artistic value and should be worth several hundred dollars!
But this was not his goal. He was interested in another more valuable item. This enamel cigarette case was just a smoke bomb used to test the price.
He wanted to see how much the stall owner would charge and how generous his offer was.
By extension from this stall owner's quotation, he can also roughly understand the thoughts of other stall owners and be aware of it.
Next, if you see the treasure you like and must get at other stalls, you will know how to counter-offer and whether it is worth selling!
Hearing Ye Tian's inquiry, the stall owner's eyes immediately flashed with joy, business is coming!
"Stephen, welcome to my stall, you have great taste! This is an antique from Russia, with a strong Russian style, and the price is not expensive, only 5,000 US dollars!"
After quoting the price, the stall owner immediately looked at Ye Tian expectantly, waiting for his response.
How dare you open your teeth, it’s so dark! The other stall owners nearby were all complaining secretly.
Okay! Isn’t this expensive? That’s more than ten times!
After calming down a little, Ye Tian said angrily:
"Man! If this were Faberge jewelry, I would accept it for $5,000, but is this what you think? Don't take me for granted! I'm a professional treasure hunter! $200, the highest price is this. Okay, I’ll take it!”
"Pfft"
Betty couldn't help but burst out laughing. Sophie and many reporters behind her also chuckled!
A difference of 25 times! It’s so funny that there’s such a bargain!
The stall owner blushed for a moment and then returned to normal in an instant. He obviously had a well-tested face.
He already knew in his heart that there was no way to take advantage of the **** in front of him! This **** is smarter than anyone else and knows the market better than anyone else!
Just make an honest price, as long as this **** doesn't miss it.
Then he started to re-quote as if nothing had happened.
"$200 is too low, I can't accept it. It seems you also understand this thing. If you really like it, you can take it away for $600!"
This still sounds like words, the moisture is not that big.
But I don’t want to buy this thing at all, so you might as well keep it for yourself.
Ye Tian shook his head gently, and then walked away with Betty without even looking at the cigarette box again!
Leaving now? It’s too straightforward! The stall owner was dumbfounded.
Next, Ye Tian asked about the prices of several antiques at other stalls. They were all antiques of little value and that everyone knew.
He has no intention of taking action, but is testing the depth of the water in this courtyard market to see how many treasures he can dig out here!
Based on the quotations from these stall owners, he was also secretly formulating a quotation range for the target antique artworks, and then asked Bowie to take action.
At the same time, he also used this to show his sharp vision and accurate price judgment ability, warning these stall owners not to ask for excessive prices, my brother is definitely not a fat sheep you want to slaughter!
As he expected, after several consecutive inquiries and bargaining, the stall owners behind immediately became more rational. Although the prices were still high, no one was asking for excessive prices anymore!
Soon, Ye Tian and the others reached the last row of the market, where there were only three stalls.
After just glancing at these three stalls, Ye Tian's eyes under his sunglasses immediately began to shine, becoming extremely bright, and his heart was filled with surprises!
Another valuable treasure, and so rare! So kind! Brother must take action personally!
Although he was very excited and wanted to go to the second stall immediately and take the treasure, Ye Tian's expression was very calm and he did not show any abnormality.
He walked forward with Betty, glanced at the first stall twice, shook his head slightly, and then walked to the second stall, with an indifferent expression and no clues.
Enough with the foreplay, it’s time to get straight to the point!
After standing still, he immediately pointed to a piece of goods on the stall and said to the stall owner in surprise:
"Man! I didn't expect you to have something from China. Where did you get it from? Do you know what this is? Can I get my hands on it and take a look?"
The stall owner looked at the goods pointed by Ye Tian, nodded with a smile and said:
"Good afternoon, Steven. I'm Adrian. Welcome to my stall. This is an antique from China. It seems to be an incense burner for sacrifice. I collected it in Liberty. Of course you can look at it. Please do it!”
While speaking, the stall owner couldn't help but flash a hint of joy in his eyes.
Is this a baby? Maybe you can make some money today! The cost is only 50 US dollars, you will make profit no matter how much you sell!
"Adrian, you are right! This is an incense burner, but it is not just a sacrificial tool, but an important carrier of traditional Chinese culture. Let me take a look at this incense burner. Maybe I will buy it. ! "
Ye Tian explained a few words, then squatted down and picked up the incense burner from the stall.
The incense burner is very heavy to buy. It is obviously made of sufficient materials and is heavier than a pure copper incense burner. It should be made of alloy. Judging from the purple-red carcass on its surface, it is probably made of gold and copper alloy.
After feeling the weight, Ye Tian picked up the incense burner with both hands and began to appreciate and study it carefully.
In his eyes, the purple-red incense burner is emitting a dazzling light yellow light at the moment. It is very beautiful!
The first moment he saw this incense burner, Ye Tian knew based on the light intensity that it was an early Ming Dynasty incense burner with a long history of nearly six hundred years!
In addition to the light yellow light emitted by the incense burner, there are also dozens of layers of halo, which is extremely charming and full of temptation!
There is no doubt that this incense burner has extraordinary artistic value and is a rare ancient art treasure!
Six hundred years of history! The artistic value is extraordinary! Ye Tian's heart began to beat wildly!
Is it the famous Xuande Furnace?
Although they are of similar age! But without seeing the deposit with his own eyes and without conducting a perspective analysis, Ye Tian still dared not draw conclusions easily, for fear of being disappointed in the end!
Happiness comes more intensely!
