In the antique street, some people make a living by defrauding individual customers, but there are also people who make a living by defrauding merchants.
It has long been common in this industry to deceive antique dealers with fake items.
If you open the door to do business by yourself, it is not uncommon for someone to deceive you.
But the strange thing is that I have just barely opened my business today, and I have no reputation. I don’t even have a serious sign. How come someone is targeting me so quickly?
This made him realize that there must be someone specifically targeting him in this game.
As for who was targeting him, Zhou Liangyun felt that it was most likely Zhang Ermao ( Cade ).
There was no other reason. The main reason was that Zhang Ermao ( Cade ) had been to his store before and asked him about the scale of his investment in opening a store. In order to keep a low profile, he lied to him that it was only a few hundred thousand.
The man just now came with the item and offered a price of 500,000 yuan. It seemed that he wanted to defraud all of his hundreds of thousands of investment in one step.
Moreover, in the antique business, being defrauded of some money is not the most fatal thing. The most fatal thing is to have an unprofessional reputation.
Everyone knows that you are not professional, and people who really want to buy good things will definitely not come to you. Those who are looking for you are liars who want to deceive you.
And just because they all know that you are not professional, people who really want to buy good things will not come to you. You, he’s afraid that you bought a bunch of fakes without knowing it and took them out as genuine.
Therefore, the sinister intentions of those who engage in this kind of scheme are clearly revealed. Not only do they want to defraud all their money, they also want to lose their footing in the antiques industry in Aurous Hill.
But Zhou Liangyun murmured in his heart, he had never offended Zhang Ermao ( Cade ) before, why would he target him like this?
What’s even more ridiculous is that he made a plan against himself, but unexpectedly sent a good thing from the Northern Song Dynasty. This is really unheard of.
The reason why he just told the truth in front of that person was that, firstly, he concluded that no matter what he said, the other party would definitely not believe it, and secondly, it was also to leave a piece of evidence for the future.
At the four corners of the store’s ceiling, several sets of surveillance cameras on the first floor were not removed when the previous owner left.
In the words of the shop owner, it only cost a few hundred yuan in total when I bought it. Not to mention that I had to carry a ladder to climb it up after dismantling it, and I couldn’t even get a few bucks from it;
after all, they were all bought several years ago. , a camera that only cost one or two hundred yuan a few years ago, but now no one wanted it for a hundred yuan, so he simply made a favor and gave Zhou Liangyun the account and password of the monitoring software.
In the conversation just now, Zhou Liangyun had already been recorded by the surveillance camera and told the person clearly the stakes of the bronze Buddha. Not only did he tell the person what age it was and how much it was worth, but he also gave it to the person. The other party’s proposal of half for each person can be said to be very kind and far beyond the average level of the entire antique industry.
The reason why he told the other party the truth was that he saw through the other party’s conspiracy, so he simply used the trick to create a conspiracy.
