The man's name is Luo Yang, his family lives in Mianyang, Sichuan, and he came to work at the construction site in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province in order to support his family.
Luo Yang has been to work in many places over the years, without exception, working on the construction site, which is hard, but he has also accumulated a lot of savings.
One summer five years ago, Luo Yang was carrying a water bottle and was about to go to work on the roof, just halfway through, he suddenly felt a severe cramping pain in his stomach, and the sudden pain made Luo Yang hurriedly run to the toilet.
Halfway through the run, he couldn't help it! He had to find a nearby place to solve the internal emergency, this kind of thing is very common on the construction site, and he didn't feel embarrassed.
After solving the big thing, Luo Yang hummed a little song and prepared to return to the place where the ashes were beaten, he was going to be punished if he was late, he didn't want to be reprimanded by the foreman, Luo Yang looked at the time, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
It's still early, and it shouldn't be delayed now.
He had only been walking for a few minutes, when he suddenly stumbled and almost fell on the gravel next to him, Luo Yang stabilized his body and looked behind him, and this look suddenly made him unable to take his eyes off.
"What is this thing"?
Luo Yang turned around, squatted on the ground and pulled for a while, and a jar was suddenly revealed below, this jar was white all over, although it was covered with mud, but Luo Yang could see that this thing should be a piece of porcelain.
Luo Yang was ecstatic in his heart, if it was really antique porcelain, then he would have sent it, he had heard others say that some porcelain with better quality could be sold for hundreds of thousands.
For example, Ru kiln porcelain in the Ming Dynasty is hard to find, and you may not be able to buy it if you have money.
Just as he was about to dig out the porcelain jar, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Yo, it's a good thing! It's still a celadon jar, it should sell for a lot of money."
Luo Yang was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly turned around.
At this time, a middle-aged man came behind him at some point, looking at the celadon jar in front of him, his eyes were full of heat.
Luo Yang was a little annoyed in his heart, he originally wanted to keep this porcelain jar for himself, but who knew that someone had discovered it, which made him not know what to do for a while, he looked at this person and found that he didn't know it.
This is not to blame him, he has been in Xianyang for less than half a month, there are so many people on this construction site, how can he know them all?
He didn't even know a few people from their shed, let alone people from other sheds.
But he still said: "Isn't it just a broken porcelain jar?
When the middle-aged man heard this, he smiled and said, "Brother, you are wrong, do you know where we are here?"
"This is Xianyang, count up a thousand years, how many dynasties have made their capital here?"
"Even if it was not the national capital in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was also a proper big city and commercial artery, and there were still few good things dug up here? Although this porcelain jar is inconspicuous, how can you say that it is not a treasure?"
Being said by this person, Luo Yang's heart suddenly became hot, but when he thought that this person had also seen this thing, he was a little helpless.
The middle-aged man seemed to notice Luo Yang's strange appearance, and immediately smiled: "Brother, as the so-called seeer has a share, this thing is only discovered by the two of us now, if you don't want to cause more trouble, just share my share, I promise not to tell others."
"You must also know that if other people know that you have found this thing, it is a matter of two things whether you can save it."
When Luo Yang heard this, he sighed in his heart.
Although he didn't come to the construction site for a long time, he also heard some rumors on the construction site, and several ancient tombs were dug up after just over half a year of construction at this construction site, and a lot of antique equipment was naturally dug up.
Of course, these things were all turned in!
Luo Yang knew in his heart that if he didn't share the other party's share and he told him about it, then he wouldn't get anything.
He looked at the middle-aged man and said lightly: "I found this porcelain jar first, how are you going to divide it?"
Luo Yang had already made up his mind in his heart, if the other party's lion opened his mouth, then he would hand over the things directly, and no one would want to get it alone.
Of course, if the other party is a little more interesting, he is not unable to share the other party's share.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he pondered for a long time before saying, "Since you discovered the thing first, my request is not too much, we will quietly take out this porcelain jar and sell it for money, how about four or six cents of the money we get?"
"You six and I four".
When Luo Yang heard this, he said, "Three or seven points."
The middle-aged man shook his head when he heard this: "Four or six points, this is my bottom line, don't be in a hurry to say this, I have a reason to take four copies, do you know what to do with this thing in your hand?"
"I can help you, including identifying and finding buyers."
"I, Wang Yaming, have been here for a long time, and I know many more people than you."
When Luo Yang heard this, he thought about it in his heart, and found that what the other party said was also reasonable, he was indeed a little troublesome to hold this porcelain jar, how to identify it, how to sell it is a problem, if it can't be handled within a period of time, it is really a hot potato.
Once it is known by others, it is impossible for him to get six copies.
If the other party can really find a market, it is not impossible to agree.
After thinking about this, Luo Yang nodded and said: "If you can really find the person and buyer who appraised you, it's not impossible to divide your four shares after selling, but I have to say ugly things in front, and no third person can know about this porcelain jar."
"Otherwise, you don't want to get ......."
Wang Yaming smiled: "Hehe, I understand...... Since my brother said so, how could I do such a thing?"
"My name is Wang Yaming, a carpenter in the first phase of the second phase."
Wang Yaming stretched out his hand and identified himself.
"Luoyang, the third phase of the rebar worker".
After that, he shook hands with Wang Yaming.
Wang Yaming nodded and said, "You are a little older than me, I will call you Brother Luo! You take this thing first, find a place to hide it, I will go to the contact person first, and I will contact you when I have a way."
Luo Yang nodded when he heard this: "Then please trouble you to run more, I haven't been here for a long time, I don't know the place well, you can rest assured, I will definitely hide it."
Wang Yaming nodded, and after admonishing Luo Yang a few more words, after the two left each other's contact information, he reluctantly left.
Luo Yang took the porcelain jar and looked at it, and he was overjoyed, he cautiously returned to the shed and hid it in his suitcase.
After hiding the porcelain jar, he left the shed to work.
As long as he doesn't say it, no one will know that there is nothing of value in the shed, and no one will go out of their way to rummage through his suitcase.
Time flickered, and half a month passed.
In the past half a month, Luo Yang has been asking Wang Yaming if he has found anyone, this porcelain jar has been hidden in the shed, he has always been a little uneasy, once it is discovered, it will be a failure.
Wang Yaming also responded, saying that the appraiser had found it, but the buyer had not been found, so he was waiting.
Half a month later, Luo Yang suddenly received a message from Wang Yaming, and he asked Luo Yang to take two days off and go directly to the north gate of the construction site to find him.
After Luo Yang saw the news, he found a reason and asked for leave and left the construction site.
As soon as he saw Wang Yaming, he hurriedly asked, "How is it?
Wang Yaming nodded and said: "Through my friend's introduction, I got in touch, but the person is not here now, he wants us to identify things first, if our things are true and meet his requirements, he will personally come here to trade with us."
"Now I don't know whether the thing is true or not, and the other party can't make a special trip, right?"
Luo Yang nodded when he heard this: "That's the reason, are we going to find someone to identify it now?"
Wang Yaming nodded and said: "Of course, this place we are going to is amazing, this old gentleman is knowledgeable, and he doesn't ask where he comes from, there are many antiques from the wild road to ask him for identification."
"However, it is not cheap to find him for identification, regardless of whether the thing is real or fake, you need to pay a thousand yuan appraisal fee at a time."
When Luo Yang heard this, he smiled and said: "As long as the thing is true, a thousand yuan is a thousand yuan, just deduct it from the inside."
Wang Yaming nodded and said, "It's not early now, we have to hurry up, otherwise there will be a lot of people who will go to him for appraisal in the afternoon."
Luo Yang said: "Then let's go quickly!"
……。
Subsequently, the two stopped a taxi at the intersection, Wang Yaming said an address, and the taxi drove for half an hour before the two came to a place similar to an urban village.
Luo Yang followed behind Wang Yaming, and the two got out of the car and walked for about ten minutes to the door of an antique teahouse.
After entering the teahouse, the two turned left and right, and then came to an antique shop, and after entering the store, Luo Yang found that there were already people queuing in front of them.
Wang Yaming had no choice but to pull him, pay the appraisal fee, and then was led by a little girl to the tea room next to him to rest.
About half an hour later, it was Wang Yaming's turn.
In a room next to the tea room.
"What do you two have identified"?
Wang Yaming motioned for Luo Yang to take out the things, and said with a smile: "Old man, we have a porcelain jar here, can you show me what age it is?"
Hearing this, Luo Yang hurriedly put the jar in his arms on the table, and carefully unwrapped the sheets.
At this moment, there was a sound in Wang Yaming's pocket, he took out his mobile phone, glanced at Luo Yang and the old man in front of him, and said a little embarrassedly: "Old man, you tell my brother first, I'll go out and answer the phone."
The old man nodded and said, "It's okay, if you have something to do, go out and get busy first."
Wang Yaming nodded awkwardly and walked out.
Luo Yang ignored it and asked directly: "Old man, can you show me how much this thing is worth?"
The old man picked up the porcelain jar on the table and examined it carefully.
After about ten minutes, the old man put down the porcelain jar and said, "You still have a little earthy smell on this porcelain jar, it shouldn't have been long after you got it, right?"
"Don't worry, the old man won't ask you about the origin of this thing, I ask this, I want to tell you that this porcelain jar is real, and it is still a relatively rare kind, if I am not mistaken, this porcelain jar should be from the Jun kiln in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, it is well preserved, and the thing is not bad."
Luo Yang was nervous at first, but when he heard the old man say this, he was immediately relieved.
Immediately afterwards, he asked: "Old man, is my porcelain jar worth a lot? He doesn't understand what Jun kiln, Luo Yang only wants to know how much this porcelain jar is worth now, so he knows how much money he can share."
The old man thought for a while and said: "At present, there are not many Jun kiln porcelain in the Xuande period, your porcelain jar is a jar used by large families to store things, if you meet someone who likes this kind of porcelain, I estimate that it can be sold for about 800,000 yuan, even if it is the market price, I estimate that it will not be lower than this price."
"Okay, I've already identified the thing!"
Then, the old man clapped his hands and said, "Next."
Seeing this, Luo Yang put away the porcelain jar and thanked him before leaving the house.
At this time, he was already so excited in his heart that this porcelain jar was worth 800,000 yuan!
If you can't sell it for 800,000 yuan, you can always sell it for 700,000 yuan, right?
In any case, he is not at a loss.
As soon as Luo Yang went out, he met Wang Yaming head-on.
Wang Yaming asked a little incredulously: "Why? The appraisal fee of 1,000 yuan is over so quickly?"
Luo Yang nodded and said, "The appraisal is over."
Wang Yaming said excitedly: "How about it? Is the thing real or fake, and how much can it be worth?"
Luo Yang's heart moved when he heard this, and said: "The thing is real, the old gentleman said that it is porcelain from the Ming Dynasty, and the thing is relatively rare, and it is estimated that it can be sold for about 400,000 yuan."
Luo Yang didn't tell the truth, now that he knew the price, who the thing would sell to at that time, and what price it would sell, it was not up to him to have the final say.
Dong was discovered by him, if he really gave Wang Yaming four shares, he was really reluctant, at this time he had already made up his mind, and when he went back, he also found a way to find someone to ask, things can't be expected Wang Yaming to sell, let alone let Wang Yaming know the actual price.
Just say less, then he will be able to earn a little more.
Luo Yang himself is also cautious.
When Wang Yaming heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "It's great that 400,000 yuan can be sold so much."
"Brother Luo, can the little brother discuss something for you"?
Luo Yang heard the words and said, "You say ......."
"Just now my dad called, saying that my mother fell and injured herself, and now she needs a lot of money, you see that since you know the price, can you give me my part first, I have to go back to my hometown, I will give you the person's phone number, you can contact him directly when the time comes."
When Luo Yang heard this, he was overjoyed, isn't this sleepy and met a pillow? He was thinking about how to break Wang Yaming, so he sent it directly to the door.
Luo Yang thought for a while and said, "This, I'm afraid it's not good! The thing hasn't been sold yet, what if the other party doesn't want to bid 400,000 yuan? After all, this is just an appraisal price."
Although he was very happy, he still found an excuse to continue to lower the price, anyway, it was not him who was in a hurry now.
When Wang Yaming heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "Brother Luo, you are not unreasonable, you see if this will work, I can divide the four parts of 400,000 into 160,000, you can just give me 120,000, if you sell too much, then even if it is Brother Luo, I will never ask for more."
Luo Yang was overjoyed when he heard this, with an estimate of 800,000 yuan.
It stands to reason that Wang Yaming should be able to get 320,000.
But now he only needs 120,000, and this time he has saved 200,000 out of thin air, and it is too late for Luo Yang to be happy about such a good thing, how could he not agree.
However, in order not to let Wang Yaming see the clues, he still hesitated for a long time before saying: "Since you need money urgently, I will also help you with this, I can give you this money first, but we have to say it in advance, you can't play tricks in the future."
Wang Yaming smiled when he heard this: "No, Brother Luo, you can rest assured."
……。
After the two left the antique shop, Luo Yang took 120,000 yuan for Wang Yaming, and the other party didn't stay long with the money, and left in a hurry.
Luo Yang has been working for so many years, and he also has some savings, and he can still get the 120,000 yuan.
Thinking that he would soon become a millionaire, Luo Yang was so happy that he couldn't sleep, and he didn't go to the shed, so he directly opened a hotel to rest, and called the buyer by the way.
What made him depressed was that he made several phone calls and no one answered, which made him a little depressed.
……。
The next day, Luo Yang returned to the shed with the jar and hid the tower in the suitcase, since he couldn't be contacted, he waited first.
What he didn't expect was that he couldn't contact the buyer in the next few days, and the phone couldn't get through, which made him wonder if Wang Yaming had given the wrong call.
So, Luo Yang called Wang Yaming and wanted to ask him what was going on.
Next, Luo Yang was completely stunned!
After he called Wang Yaming, he was prompted that it was an empty number.
At this moment, Luo Yang began to feel that something was wrong.
He hurried back to the shed to take out the jars in the suitcase, and was slightly relieved to find that the things were still there.
Luo Yang held the jar and quietly left the shed, he was going to identify it once, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence, when he passed by the warehouse on the construction site with the jar, he accidentally saw that there was a bunch of jars inside, this warehouse is usually stacked with wood, he has never been here.
When he walked in, there was a pile of porcelain jars inside, and the style was exactly the same as the one in his arms.
When the storekeeper saw Luo Yang holding something, he thought he had taken it from the warehouse, so he immediately asked him to put it down quickly.
The two quarreled, and after pulling, the administrator found that Luo Yang's arms were actually a porcelain jar, and he said with some surprise: "What are you doing with this thing? Take it back to make soup?"
Luo Yang heard the words and said: "I am not from your warehouse, don't lie to me."
The administrator smiled when he heard this, and said, "You picked it up outside, right? Forget it, this thing is not a good thing, you can take it!"
Luo Yang was stunned when he heard this, and he asked, "Do you know this thing?"
The administrator smiled: "Why don't you know it? Do you think this thing is an antique? Let me tell you the truth! This thing is a kind of porcelain jar in the late Qing Dynasty, and the porcelain jars fired in batches are not valuable, and the pile in our warehouse is dug out of the earthen kiln on the construction site, and the things fired in the private kiln can be worth dozens of yuan to the sky."
"However, it is not bad to take it back as a kimchi jar, and many people on the construction site have taken a lot of it."
"Kimchi jar"?
Luo Yang was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.
He ran out of the construction site like crazy, and hurried to the antique shop, and found that the old man had long since disappeared, and after inquiring he found out that the old man had only come to drink tea.
Luo Yang only realized at this time that all this was a game set up for him by Wang Yaming, and he was still stupidly drilling into it.
In fact, this is also Luo Yang's own doing, if he wants to sell in person and doesn't want to swallow Wang Yaming's share, he will not be fooled by Wang Yaming, and he will not give him the money in advance.
In the final analysis, it is still his own greed, no wonder who does.
