"Leak picking" master Ma Weidu: a price, 590,000 sell or not? Two years later, the owner was going to sell the bed

Once, Ma Weidu took a fancy to a huanghuali bed, he bid 800,000, and the owner refused. Ma Weidu increased to 1.2 million, and the other party was still unmoved.

Two years later, the owner found Ma Wei to sell the bed, and Ma Weidu said: "One price, 590,000 sell or not?" ”

Born in 1955, Ma Weidu is a son of a large courtyard in Beijing. When he was young, he admired writers very much, so in 1980, he also began to create literature.

In 1981, Ma Weidu was transferred to Youth Literature as a screenwriter for publishing his novel "Tonight the Moon Is Round". At the same time, Ma Weidu was also madly obsessed with the collection of cultural relics.

At that time, no one paid attention to the collection of antiques, and Ma Weidu relied on his diligence and inquisitiveness to become a self-taught talent, becoming a "ashes-level" player in the collection industry.

By the 1990s, Ma Weidu's personal collection had exceeded 1,000 pieces. Until 1996, under the rush of Ma Weidu, he established the first private museum in the mainland, the Guanfu Museum.

Ma Weidu's favorite thing is to "pick up leaks", according to him, most of his collection is obtained through leaks, which also shows his vision and skills in finding leaks.

Once, Ma Weidu went to the bathroom to take a bath, and found that there was a bed of huanghuali in the bathhouse, which made Ma Weidu, who liked to collect, unable to remove his eyes.

He immediately went to the boss and said to him: "I sincerely want to buy this bed, give you 1 million!" ”

Who knows, the boss said particularly arrogantly: "I don't rely on this to make money, I don't sell." ”

But Ma Weidu couldn't let go of his love, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll add 1.2 million to you, and you can sell me!" ”

Even so, the boss was still unmoved: "Impossible, I will never sell for the rest of my life!" Speaking of this, Ma Weidu can only return home in sorrow.

Unexpectedly, two years later, the reversal came. The boss found Ma Weidu and asked him: "Do you still want this bed?" ”

Ma Weidu was surprised: "Doesn't it mean that you will not sell for life?" ”

The boss was slightly embarrassed and said: "There is something urgent at home, and I need to use the money to turn it around." ”

Ma Weidu thought about it and said, "I gave you 1.2 million before and you didn't sell me, now I can only give you 600,000, but in order to make you remember this matter, I will subtract another 10,000 and give you 590,000, if you agree, the money will arrive immediately." ”

Ma Weidu thought that the boss would bargain, but he did not expect that the boss was particularly happy and agreed. As a result, the next day, Ma Weidu quickly sent someone to pull the bed away, afraid that the boss would repent.

In the show, when Ma Weidu mentioned this matter, he said: "In fact, this bed is only worth 600,000, and at that time, driving to 1.2 million just wants the boss to remember himself and show his strength."

The deal could not be done, but at least remember me, if the boss wants to shoot again, he will definitely be the first to think of me, and he can do as I wish. ”

I have to say that Ma Weidu is indeed a master of "picking up leaks". As early as when he first played with collecting, he bought a blue and white bowl from the Qianlong period for 6 yuan.

In the early years, a "drinking street" person often went to this alley where Ma Weidu lived to sell antiques, and this kind of person generally did not understand it very well, spending some small money to buy some antiques, walking the streets and alleys to sell.

Ma Weidu was his only patron in this alley, and whenever he had something good, he often brought it and sold it to him. On this day, he took a bowl and asked for 8 pieces.

When Ma Weidu looked at it, it was also a blue and white bowl from the Qianlong period, and his heart was itching to see it. But Ma Weidu had his own wishful thinking in his heart, and played a routine with this "drinking street" person.

Ma Weidu skimmed his lips and said, "I can only give you 5 yuan." ”

The man felt inappropriate and turned away, but Ma Weidu was sure that this person would come back in 15 minutes, because no one on this street was willing to pay 8 yuan for a bowl except himself. After all, at that time, a person's salary was only fifty or sixty yuan.

The reason why Ma Weidu was sure that the other party would come back in 15 minutes was because the alley was 7:50 at the end, and it was the same time to walk back.

If the man walked to the bus stop and didn't earn money with his bare hands, he would definitely be unwilling. Therefore, he will definitely come back to find himself, which shows how calculating Ma Weidu is.

However, this time the horse did not all miscalculate, and after 15 minutes, the man did not return. Ma Weidu thought to himself: Is this a miscalculation? After another 5 minutes, Ma Weidu's courtyard door was knocked on again.

Ma Weidu was excited, he knew that this blue and white bowl could not run at all. Ma Weidu opened the door, and the man said, "Otherwise, let's talk again!" ”

Ma Wei did not fall into the well, but said: "Well, you are also sincere in selling, you run back from afar, I will add another dollar to you." ”

When the man heard this, he immediately felt some relief, so he accepted it happily. After the deal was completed, Ma Weidu also invited him to drink tea, ate a meal, and asked, "Where did you go to regret coming back?" ”

The other party said: "The station at the mouth of the hutong." ”

Ma Weidu: "Then why did you spend 5 minutes more?" ”

The other party listened and was completely convinced. He sighed and said, "I'm not willing to sell it for five dollars, so I hesitated at your door for 5 minutes." ”

And so on, and there's a lot more. Ma Weidu relied on such a scheming and routine to pick up a lot of "dew", and had to admire, his means were very clever!
