Chapter 163 163. I didn’t expect Gu Nanqiao to bargain so hard
"I heard there are many antiques here, and I want to come and see them."
It is said that if you want to get more reliable local news, you must look for the hawkers on the roadside. You come into contact with people who come from north to south every day, so naturally the news is relatively well-informed.
So Gu Nanqiao didn't resent the woman's familiarity, but started chatting with her.
No, just by eating snail noodles, I got a lot of antique information from the woman's mouth.
For example, larger antique stores will basically rip off customers.
For example, although some vendors outside sell cheap products, they basically don’t have any good products.
For another example, there is a competition in the antique market every month.
Today happens to be game day, which is why so many food trucks gathered at the door.
Gu Nanqiao bought several more bottles of water, and finally took Xiaowu to the Xiaoliu market.
Looking around, there are all kinds of fast food.
What Baohe Zhai, Cuiyu Zhai, Linlang Zhai...
The shops all look about the same size, and from the outside, you can see a dazzling array of antiques inside.
Gu Nanqiao casually walked into an antique store, and a shopping guide immediately came over and asked: "Little girl, do you want to see it or buy it?"
"I'll just take a look."
If you see it, it doesn’t mean you can’t buy it.
Probably because Gu Nanqiao was wearing ordinary clothes. Except for the two strong men in casual clothes following behind her, she looked like a school girl, so she was not very enthusiastic and said, "Then take your time and watch." He turned around and greeted other guests.
Gu Nanqiao didn't care, it was just for a casual look anyway.
It's just that she really doesn't know anything about antiques, and at most she can only look at the styles.
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 he kept staring at one place, looking down at his phone from time to time. The shopping guide came up to him again, "Does the little girl like this cup?"
Gu Nanqiao was stunned, looked away, and replied, "No."
The shopping guide looked a little unhappy when he heard this, "Since you don't like it and don't plan to buy it, then go next door and have a look."
Gu Nanqiao just raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything, but the shopping guide was still a little uncomfortable with the customer's pushy attitude of not wanting to buy anything.
I glanced around and found nothing interesting, and there weren't any expensive antiques either. I just glanced at the shopping guide lightly before leaving the antique store.
So I don’t know why the current social atmosphere is like this. Since you choose to work in the service industry, isn’t service the most important thing?
As a result, everyone only focused on performance and no longer had the mood to shop.
Finally, I randomly found a roadside stall, with only a piece of floral cloth spread on the ground. There were all kinds of things on it, and the vendor was sitting on a folding chair, eating and shouting.
Watching Nan Qiao stopped, the vendor didn't even eat. He directly covered the thermos bucket and wrapped the chopsticks with paper towels. "Little girl, what do you want to see? I have everything here, and the price is Still cheap.”
"I'll just take a look."
The vendor said nonchalantly, "It's okay to just look at it. Anyway, these things are put out for everyone to look at casually."
"Of course, it's okay if you want to get started. As long as you don't break things, you can look at them and touch them as you like."
After saying that, he scratched his head and said, "But if you just look at it, I'll eat first!"
Gu Nanqiao was a little dumbfounded, "It's okay, you can eat." This vendor was quite interesting.
Seeing the hawker picking up the thermos bucket to eat again, Gu Nanqiao squatted down and took the thing he was interested in in his hands to play with.
Although the stall is small, as the vendor said, there are several of every type and the variety is very complete.
Finally, Gu Nanqiao's eyes fell on the agate bracelet on the side.
It's not like an ordinary red, but a dark brownish red. If you look closely, it seems to have a bit of black, gold and purple. The pieces are round and plump, but they don’t look shiny.
Gu Nanqiao picked up the string and said, "Boss, how do you sell this?"
The hawker took one look and said, "If you want this, just two thousand yuan."
"It's because you are a little girl that I asked you for two thousand yuan. If it were anyone else, I would have paid you twenty thousand yuan."
The corner of Gu Nanqiao's mouth twitched. This kind of talk could only deceive a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
Putting down the bracelet, Gu Nanqiao shook his head, "It's too expensive, forget it."
Seeing Gu Nanqiao was about to leave, the vendor immediately asked, "What do you think is the appropriate price for this bracelet?"

Gu Nanqiao seemed to think about it seriously, and finally blinked, "Two hundred, maybe."
The vendor was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Gu Nanqiao to be so good at bargaining.
But even if the bracelet only cost two hundred yuan, he would still make a profit.
Because he had picked up this bracelet in the trash can before, and it looked like a good style. He took it home, washed it, and put it in a brocade box, and it became a new bracelet.
"Yes, yes, but it's just the bracelet."
Gu Nanqiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, as if he was afraid that the hawker would regret it. He immediately took out his wallet from his backpack, took out two pink RMB and handed it to the hawker.
After the vendor took the money, Gu Nanqiao threw the bracelet directly into his backpack, as if it was an unimportant item.
In this way, Gu Nanqiao visited several roadside stalls and collected some bottles and cans.
Because they were all bought at a stall, there was no box or fancy bag, so I just put a plastic bag around it and carried it in my hand like a rag collector.
But there is also Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu here. Even if he looks like a rag collector, that person is definitely not Gu Nanqiao.
The reason why Gu Nanqiao bought so many items from the stall was just to participate in the antique competition later.
I heard from the woman before that the so-called antique competition is not held for merchants, but for customers who buy antiques.
The standard of the competition is the antiques purchased by the customers. From a large number of antiques, the one with the highest collection value will be selected. Then a medal will be awarded and the qualification to enter the antique party will be awarded.
What Gu Nanqiao cared about was not the medal, but the so-called party.
After all, there will definitely be many celebrities gathered by then. Isn’t this a great resource?
The reason why she bought it from the hawker instead of buying it in the store was that there really wasn't anything particularly good in the store, and the other was naturally because the woman had said before that generally good things are in the stalls, but they just needed Discover with your heart.
After all, the hawker may not know much about antiques. He just collects some antiques at low prices and then sells them at high prices. Even he himself does not know the price of the items themselves.
There was a precedent before, a cup that was not very eye-catching, with dust on it, was bought for dozens of yuan. It turned out that the cup was actually handed down from ancient times and was worth billions.
