Chapter 307 Are you taking advantage of me?

The square is full of identical stalls, all built with thick wooden boards and with uniform specifications and styles.

The stalls stretch as far as the eye can see, covering the entire square.

People from all over the country packed the square.

Mixed in the crowd were vendors selling snacks, offering the sweet aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, the rich flavor of sugar-fried chestnuts, and the fresh aroma of hot soup noodles.

The aroma of various foods intertwined together, filled the air, stimulating people's taste buds.

Lin Panpan plunged into the bustling market and began to shop seriously.

The variety of antiques on the stalls is dazzling.

There are simple porcelain, exquisite jade, bronzes of various shapes, as well as ancient calligraphy and paintings, and ancient books.

However, if you look closely, most of them are just handicrafts with relatively fine workmanship and have no real value, but occasionally you can find some treasures in the corner.

Lin Panpan's attention was attracted by a dozen coins.

She bent down, picked up one and examined it carefully, then asked, "How much is this coin?"

The stall owner's eyes lit up, and he quickly introduced enthusiastically, "You have good taste, girl! You can take all of these for 100 yuan. They are absolutely worth it. They are all real treasures found in tombs!"

Lin Panpan straightened up, shook her head, and said calmly: "I'll give you 10 yuan for these dozen coins. If you can sell them, sell them. If not, forget it."

When the stall owner heard this, a look of hesitation appeared on his face, his brows slightly furrowed, and he was secretly calculating the deal in his mind.

After a while, he gritted his teeth and nodded:

"Okay, girl, since you really like me, let's just be friends.

But I tell you, these are all real, and it’s really cheap to sell them to you for 10 yuan.

Take a look around here and see if there's anything you need."

Lin Panpan shook her head, took out 10 yuan from her pocket and handed it to the stall owner, carefully put the dozen or so coins into her bag, and continued walking forward.

Gu Mobai took two steps and took Lin Panpan's hand, his eyes flashing with eagerness: "I'll come and take a look, and see if I can find any treasures."

Lin Panpan raised the corner of her mouth and said jokingly, "Then just give it a try. This is a good opportunity for you to show your skills."

In fact, she was also wondering in her heart, not quite sure how deep Gu Mobai's knowledge of antiques was.

After walking a few steps, Gu Mobai suddenly stopped and fixed his eyes on a small stall.

He stepped forward, pointed at a jade pendant and asked, "How much is this jade pendant?"

The stall owner took a look at Gu Mobai's attire, a calculating look flashed in his eyes, and he spoke slowly, "This jade pendant is five hundred yuan."

After hearing this, Gu Mobai couldn't help but sneered and said:

"Are you taking me for a fool? Do you think this piece of jade is worth so much money?

The patterns are barely acceptable. The jade is dry and has no warmth at all. The carving is also very rough. It is worth fifty yuan at most.

If you're serious about selling it and the price is right, I'll take it. Otherwise, I'll go somewhere else."

As he said this, he pretended to pull Lin Panpan away.

When the vendor heard that Gu Mobai was leaving, he immediately became panicked and said with a flattering smile on his face:

"Don't, don't, don't go! Boss, let's talk it over!

80, that's 80, oh, 60, take it, 60 yuan, this is already a bargain price! "

As soon as he said this, he seemed to feel that something was wrong. His eyes were full of entanglement and struggle, and he stomped his feet in anger.

"No, no, no, 50, I'll sell it to you for 50 yuan!

This price couldn't be any lower. I'm only giving you this much money because I see you really like it. You won't be able to buy such a good item anywhere else, and at such a low price."

As he spoke, he tightly grasped the jade pendant in both hands and looked at Gu Mobai eagerly, fearing that the business he had obtained would be lost.

Gu Mobai said slowly: "Then give me this jade ring next to it! Otherwise I will always feel like I am losing out."

The vendor hesitated for a long time before saying:

"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you. Let's just consider it a friendship! You're really good at bargaining. I've been working in vain.

Do you think I have anything you need?"

As he spoke, he quickly wrapped the jade ring and jade pendant in a piece of newspaper and handed them to Gu Mobai with both hands?

Gu Mobai handed it to Lin Panpan, paid the money, and continued shopping.

Lin Panpan looked at him and said, "Is it the jade ring you're interested in?"

Gu Mobai smiled slightly and said, "You figured it out! It's indeed the jade ring that you're interested in. I'll tell you more later."

Lin Panpan plunged into the pile of coins like a treasure-hunting explorer.

Her eyes were wide open, and she didn't miss any coin. She picked up this one to examine its rust color, and then picked up that one to look at the inscription under the light.

Gu Mobai has a wide range of interests. He glanced at the incense burner, gently stroked the body of the burner, and felt its ancient texture.

He set his eyes on another sword, drew out the sword, listened to the crisp sound, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Afterwards, he wandered among the dazzling array of bottles and jars, pointing to a pastel bottle and asking the stall owner about its origin, and he was very busy.

Lin Feng watched the two of them shopping frantically and scratched his head anxiously.

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he finally couldn't help but shout, "Auntie, please don't buy it. It's almost cost thousands of yuan!"

Lin Panpan and Gu Mobai were so engrossed in their quarrels that they didn't hear what he said at all.

Lao Jia also nodded repeatedly, with a helpless look on his face:

"Yeah, I also feel like I can't find anything good here.

How about I take you in to have a look?"

But the two of them had already become addicted to buying things, and without even raising their heads, they continued to immerse themselves in their treasure hunt.

More than two hours passed in a flash, and the entire antique stall was turned upside down by them.

When Lin Panpan and Gu Mobai were about to turn back with satisfaction, they found that Lin Weihua, Lin Feng and Lao Jia's hands were all stuffed full.

Lin Feng's arms were full of bags of various sizes, his face flushed red, veins bulging on his forehead, and he was struggling to adjust his posture to prevent the things in his hands from falling.

Lin Weihua was carrying a heavy box in one hand and holding a scroll in the other, and was so tired that he was panting.

Old Jia was the worst off. Both of his hands were occupied by various objects, and there was a string of Buddhist beads hanging around his neck. He looked very miserable.

Lin Panpan said quickly, "Oh my! How did I accidentally buy so many things? Let's put them in the car first."

After putting their things away, they headed towards the venue. However, just as they reached the entrance, a sharp and mocking voice suddenly rang out: "Hey, everyone, come and see! Isn't this Jia Lao San? I didn't expect you to come today!"
