Chapter 119 You can’t say I cheated, right? (Please subscribe!)

In a rental house.

The warm morning sun shines through the window, occupying the space of several floor tiles, and the fine particles of dust are clearly revealed in the beam.

The little housekeeper Zhang Xinxin looked at Lin Chuan and nodded solemnly: "Yes, it's the one Aunt Liu gave me. She seemed to say it was worth tens of thousands of dollars at the time."

"wait for me a while."

Lin Chuan immediately turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up quickly and wake up before taking the centuries-old red agate bracelet from the little tenant's hand.

This bracelet consists of 16 red agate stones connected in series.

Each one is deep in color, as warm as blood, and the surface has become smooth and rounded. It feels delicate and has no graininess, as if it has experienced the baptism and precipitation of years.

Lin Chuan took it to the window and placed it in the sun.

The red agate beads exude a charming luster, and the texture in them is like flowing flames, jumping in the golden light, occasionally colliding, and making a clear and melodious sound, like a quietly flowing spring.

"Chairman, can you read agate?"

The little housekeeper looked closer, but she couldn't understand, and a puzzled look appeared on her pretty face.

Lin Chuan looked at the expectation on the little charter woman's face and said with a smile, "I know a little bit."

"That's great!"

The little charterwife's eyebrows immediately curved into crescent moons, revealing a delighted smile.

Lin Chuan tapped the little tenant's forehead and thought to himself, fortunately, he worked overtime last night and learned new techniques, otherwise you would have really stumped him.

But this string of century-old red agate...

"Fake."

Lin Chuan took another look before speaking and coming to a conclusion.

"Fake?" The little charter woman frowned and looked a little surprised.

Lin Chuan nodded and said softly.

In fact, Lin Chuan saw the clues at a glance, but since the gift giver was Lao Zhang's target - Aunt Liu, Lin Chuan took a few more glances, very carefully, to make sure he didn't make a mistake.

Otherwise, as Lin Chuan's status as a 'leading master' in the virtual world of antiques and games, he only needs to put it in his hand, touch it lightly, and take another look. All illusions, illusions, and ghosts will not be able to cover his eyes. 'Fire eyes and golden eyes'.

Antique counterfeiting, no one can be king in front of him.

"Chairman, how did you figure it out?" Zhang Xinxin, the little tenant, asked in a daze.

Lin Chuan smiled, put the '100-year-old red agate bracelet' on the little tenant's hand, and then pointed to the texture: "Look here."

The little housekeeper pursed her lips and said softly: "I don't know how to read. Chairman, can you teach me?"

Lin Chuan was more than half a head taller than the little housekeeper. He gently rubbed her hair with his right hand and said with a smile, "Who taught you to speak so delicately?"

"It's taught in the guide."

The little charterwoman smiled, her eyes filled with bright stars.

"You actually don't need to read the guide."

Lin Chuan smiled, and then continued to look at the century-old red agate bracelet, "The counterfeiting technology of this bracelet is very good. It imitates southern red agate, and changes the color of the agate through heat treatment. This is very good. , it can be clearly seen that the cinnabar dots are gathered inside, like the red cinnabar in century-old southern red agate.”

Southern red agate, known as "red jade" in ancient times, has a fine and oily texture. It is produced in the Yunnan and Dian regions and has a high value for cultural and recreational collections.

The little housekeeper was startled after hearing this, and looked at Lin Chuan with her clear eyes.

"Look what I'm doing, look at it." Lin Chuan stopped.

"good."

The little charterwoman grinned and said with a smile, "You keep talking, I'm listening."

Lin Chuan knocked the little tenant on the head and continued: "Whether it is in terms of color or texture, this bracelet has the best craftsmanship among imitations. However, its texture still shows subtle differences. For clues, look here."

The little housekeeper looked along Lin Chuan's finger.

There is a very fine granular texture on the agate beads.

Lin Chuan commented: "The cinnabar-red southern red agate will show a texture similar to flames, which is very enchanting, but the imitation here is not detailed enough, and its distressing technique is not up to par."

The little tenant carefully followed Lin Chuan's method and looked at each bead.

Finally, he curled his lips and put the beads on the table.

Every one is an imitation.

"Little landlord, tell me why someone wants to buy your bracelet?"

Lin Chuan asked while sitting at the table, eating beef noodles packed by the tenant.

The little housekeeper pouted.

It turned out that a customer wanted to visit the company yesterday, and the tenant agreed.

During the visit, the customer accidentally noticed that the tenant woman was wearing a hundred-year-old red agate bracelet and greatly admired it.

At that time, the little charterer only thought it was a mutual business promotion.

Unexpectedly, this morning, the customer sent a message to the tenant, wanting to buy her century-old red agate bracelet at a high price.

The little tenant felt strange and couldn't make up her mind, so she immediately came to Lin Chuan to make up her mind.

Unconsciously, she became somewhat dependent on Lin Chuan.

"How much is he willing to pay for it?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile, raising the corners of his mouth.

The little landlady stretched out her slender index finger: "One hundred thousand."

Lin Chuan raised his eyebrows and stopped holding the beef noodles: "So, he is very interested in this bracelet. One hundred thousand yuan, buying a replica of a hundred-year-old red agate bracelet at a high price is a bit... mean."

The little housekeeper obviously didn't understand what Lin Chuan said, and she frowned: "Chairman, what does this mean?"

Lin Chuan smiled and said cheerfully: "Have you heard of the Antique Bureau?"

The little housekeeper shook her head.

I used to be addicted to short videos. During this time, after I opened a company in partnership with Lin Chuan, I was planning the company's development and researching 'what 24-year-old men like'. How could I know about antiques?

"I think you may have encountered an antique bureau." Lin Chuan smiled, and then explained the antique bureau to the little tenant.

The antique bureau is actually a scam in the "Thousand Gates and Eight Generals".

The market for antiques and antiques is very deep, and the profit margins are very high. Some people have developed crooked ways, using antiques as bait to take the bait.

The ultimate goal is basically to treat the imitations as genuine and sell them at a high price.

His essence is to use people's psychology to commit fraud.

Many people get stuck in the antiques industry and are unable to extricate themselves. They end up going bankrupt, and even worse, their wives and children are separated.

"Little charterer, what I said is this, do you understand?" Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"I kind of get it."

The little housekeeper took a deep breath and said, "In other words, Aunt Liu may have set a trap for me."

"It is indeed possible, but his purpose and target should not be you, but Lao Zhang." Lin Chuan nodded.

Lin Chuan speculated that in this antique bureau, Liu Qing first used her relationship with Lao Zhang to give the little tenant this century-old red agate bracelet.

Immediately, another agent was arranged. By chance, he saw this century-old red agate bracelet and was willing to buy it at a high price.

Her purpose was actually to use this century-old red agate bracelet to make the little housekeeper trust her.

Thus, affecting Lao Zhang.

Because, the little charter woman is the person closest to Lao Zhang.

Liu Qing is very smart.

She had done some research on Lin Chuan and the little housekeeper, and found out that they had never been exposed to antiques and knew nothing about them, so she boldly designed such a scheme through a 'meeting'.

The purpose is to get Lao Zhang to take the bait.

at first.

When Lin Chuan came into contact with Liu Qing, he just had doubts and was not 100% sure.

However, suddenly someone suddenly wanted to buy the hundred-year-old red agate bracelet she gave to her little tenant at a high price. Lin Chuan was sure that she was not really getting along with Lao Zhang, but wanted to deceive him. open.

This kind of situation is relatively common in the antique circle.

For people who are new to antiques, such as Lao Zhang, it can be described as a dimensionality reduction blow.

"Then what should we do? Should we tell Lao Zhang directly?"

The little housekeeper frowned. asked.

Lin Chuan thought for a while and shook his head: "Lao Zhang may have been trapped now. If you tell him directly, he may not believe it, but it will alarm Liu Qing. Let's collect evidence first."

As the saying goes, the authorities are confused, but those who watch are clear.

Years of single life made him long for a relationship, so he fell into it.

From Lao Zhang’s perspective:

His girlfriend gave his daughter a precious century-old red agate bracelet, and someone wanted to buy the bracelet at a high price.

This shows that this bracelet is real.

It also shows that his girlfriend is really good to his daughter.

As for the word lie. It was probably just a flash in his mind, leaving no trace.

"This Liu Qing actually wants to deceive Lao Zhang!"

The little housekeeper frowned, a look of anger appeared on her pretty face, and she said angrily.

Lin Chuan rubbed the little tenant and said comfortingly, "Don't be impatient."

The little housekeeper took a deep breath to calm down her aggrieved mood, and then asked: "Chairman, what should we do with this bracelet?"

"Of course it's sold." Lin Chuan smiled.

"ah?"

The little charter woman was startled, "Isn't it fake? Will the customer really accept it?"

"If it is really an antique bureau, of course we will accept it." Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Even if we say we don't know whether it is true or not, he will insist that it is true. Besides, how can we collect evidence to tell Lao Zhang if we don't sell it? Woolen cloth?"

In the rental house, the little tenant pursed her lips and said, "What happens after you sell it?"

Lin Chuan thought for a moment.

In his mind, he recalled memories related to antique play routines in the virtual world.

Subsequently.

Lin Chuan smiled, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth, and said: "As expected, after we sell it, Liu Qing will soon invite Lao Zhang and you to see a batch of antiques."

"Hmph, bad woman!"

Zhang Xinxin, the little housekeeper, clenched her fists, pursed her lips, and said angrily.

"Don't worry, I'll help you get rid of this bad breath!"

Lin Chuan rubbed the little tenant's head and said with a smile.

The little housekeeper raised her head, looked at Lin Chuan with clear eyes, pursed her lips, and nodded heavily. Looking at Lin Chuan's face with a faint smile, she felt inexplicably at ease.

"Why do you know everything?" the little housekeeper asked curiously.

"Hmm... maybe this is genius."

Lin Chuan smiled.

Only a genius can explain all this.

Otherwise...you can't say I'm cheating, right?

"Chairman, you are narcissistic!" the little charterer scolded, but she believed Lin Chuan's words in her heart.

Lin Chuan smiled indifferently, and then picked up the '100-year-old red agate bracelet' on the table, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

He didn't want to worry the little charterer.

If it were yesterday, he would still be a complete novice in antiques.

But after last night's virtual life experience, he is already a leader in the antiques circle!

The highest state of counterfeiting is to create imitations that are more authentic than the real thing, and Lin Chuan is in this state.

As for identification.

It's just a passing thing, a passing thing.
