However, when the shop owner was counting the money happily outside, the owner of the nearby stall opened his mouth. "Hey, man, I think you've lost a lot of money this time."
The shop owner was struck dumb for a second, then turned to look at the owner of the nearby stall. "Why?"
"Do you know the girl who just bought it from you?" the owner of the nearby stall asked, but he was sure that the shop owner didn't know the girl.
"No, I don't. Do you know her?" the shop owner asked.
"Yes, the girl who just bought it from you is the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store. I heard that she's very good at picking up scraps, so I think she might have bought it from someone else," the owner of the nearby stall said.
"What?" Hearing that, the shop owner was shocked. He turned to look at Xiangyun Antique-store at once, and saw Gu Ning inside.
All of a sudden, he was in a bad mood.
"A-Is it true? Is she really that good at picking up scraps?" The shop owner was unwilling to believe it, because if it was true, he would lose a lot of money.
"I know that she's very good at picking up scraps, but it doesn't mean that she's good at picking up scraps every time, so I'm not sure whether it's real or not," the owner of the nearby stall said.
Since the deal was done, even if the shop owner knew that it was real, he couldn't get it back. However, the owner of the nearby stall still said that it was real.
He hadn't had a single customer for a whole day, but Gu Ning had already sold it to him.
When the boss heard this, he felt like fainting.
All of a sudden, the shop owner stood up and walked to Xiangyun Antique-store.
"Hey, you …" The owner of the nearby stall wanted to stop him, but Gu Ning had already walked past him, so he had no intention to stop him.
Now, he was waiting to see the drama.
The shop owner walked into Xiangyun Antique-store, and said to Gu Ning with an apologetic expression, "Miss, I'm so sorry. I just remembered that it's an heirloom of my family. My father told me to take good care of it before he passed away, but I accidentally mixed it with other goods that I'm going to sell. Can you give it back to me? I can give you a refund. "
The boss didn't show that he knew Gu Ning's identity, so he started to gain sympathy.
However, Gu Ning had already heard the conversation between him and the owner of the roadside stall, so she wouldn't believe him.
Gu Ning looked at him with a playful expression. "You want to go back? Sure!"
Hearing that, the man was cheered up, because he thought that Gu Ning agreed. However, what Gu Ning said next shocked him.
"The price of this item has already been marked in my shop. It's sixty thousand yuan. If you want it back, you have to buy it according to the normal transaction," Gu Ning said.
"You …" The boss was mad.
The price was sixty thousand yuan. Obviously, this was the real deal. The boss felt like vomiting blood.
"Sir, you know that in the antique business, you can't go back on your word." Gu Ning said.
The boss's face alternated between green and white, looking extremely unsightly.
It was true that in the antique business, you couldn't go back on your word. Even if you went back on your word, it was useless.
However, his heart ached.
"I-I don't have that much money. Why don't I give you ten thousand yuan and you can give it back to me? You can make seven thousand yuan in this way. It's not a loss! " The boss said. Since Gu Ning set the price at sixty thousand yuan, he could give her ten thousand yuan. He could sell it for sixty thousand yuan and make fifty thousand yuan in profit.
Even if he couldn't sell it for sixty thousand yuan, he could sell it for fifty thousand yuan and make forty thousand yuan in profit.
However, it was a good idea, but it was unrealistic.
Hearing that, Gu Ning laughed. "Ha-ha! "Sir, if I sell it to you for ten thousand yuan, I can make seven thousand yuan in profit. Yes, it's not a loss. However, why can't I make more money? If I sell it to someone else, I can make fifty-seven thousand yuan in profit. "
"…" The boss was struck dumb for a second, and didn't know what to say.
"Can't you have some sympathy for me?" The boss was unwilling to give up.
Gu Ning pretended to think for a while, then said, "Since you want this antique so much, I can give you less. Fifty thousand yuan. How about that? If you want it, you can have it. If not, I can't do anything about it. "
"You …" The boss didn't know what to say. There was no difference between fifty thousand yuan and sixty thousand yuan.
It was easy to sell it in the store, but it wasn't easy to sell it in the market. He also thought that it would be great if he could sell it for fifty thousand yuan.
He was aware of Xiangyun Antique-store's background. He heard that Master Jiang and Master Xu often visited it. He also heard from other people that Master Jiang once said that Xiangyun Antique-store's business was his business. It was obvious that he was Xiangyun Antique-store's backer.
Therefore, the boss didn't dare to annoy Gu Ning. Since Gu Ning wouldn't give in, he could only leave with his tail between his legs.
After what had happened, he was in no mood to continue his business. He also forgot his purpose today, so he left without hesitation.
However, when the boss was gone, Gu Ning told Gao Yi to follow him, because it was very suspicious that he kept going to Xiangyun Antique-store.
A short while after the boss was gone, Gu Ning received K's message. K had investigated the old man's background.
According to K's investigation, the old man received money from a man, then took this blue and white porcelain vase from the man's hand before he came to Xiangyun Antique-store to sell it.
Therefore, this blue and white porcelain vase wasn't the old man's family heirloom, and he didn't have a grandson who was sick but didn't have money to treat his illness.
Therefore, the reason why this blue and white porcelain bottle was so cheap and made up such a pitiful story was to gain Chen Darong's sympathy so that he could smoothly accept this blue and white porcelain bottle.
It was obvious that it was a scheme.
In addition, the old man knew that there was something wrong with this vase.
Since it was a scheme, Gu Ning wouldn't let it go. Therefore, Gu Ning told K to investigate it further. She was determined to find out the person who wanted to hurt Xiangyun Antique-store.
After that, Gu Ning told Chen Darong and the others that it was a scheme, so they had to be careful. Even if it was real, they wouldn't accept it. They didn't need it.
If he felt any discomfort in his body, he would look for it to see if someone had maliciously put something unclean inside and then tell Dunn.
