Concubine [Slow Wear]

After getting a pen and paper from the network administrator, and after recording the basic information of Pinyun Pavilion, the time to open the Internet was almost the same. Lin Xianxian took her things and left the Internet cafe.

I haven't had a good rest for two days. Tonight Lin Xianxian wants to have a good night's sleep. Otherwise, if my head is all tired and lethargic tomorrow, how can I talk about it? Just now, she also checked the evaluation of hotels near the train station online. .

I chose a three-star hotel with a lot of good reviews, and it didn't look like a three-star hotel. After opening a single room with my ID card, I checked the hygiene and safety environment first. Overall, it's not bad. After turning off the light, she didn't find any strange light, so Lin Xianxian settled here with peace of mind.

Putting the bag where he could see, Lin Xianxian walked into the bathroom that came with the room, and used the hotel's disposable toiletries to thoroughly take a shower.

In addition, she also washed the clothes on her body, although they didn't look dirty, but after all, she wore them in the waiting room for a night, and it still smelled a little bit. Lin Xianxian temporarily put on Hu Xiaomei's replacement shirt and underwear. The clothes are also new. In the current weather in S City, the clothes should be dry in the morning.

I took apart the nanmu-made organ box and rinsed it to make sure there was no muddy water on it, and then dried it with a hair dryer. Then I put the night pearl in the bag back and stuffed it into the bag again.

Anyway, the box was buried in the damp soil. Xiaoxiaoshui should be all right. Just now, Lin Xianxian suddenly thought of a question. If she went to the auction house with the Night Pearl alone, how would she explain where she got this one? Ye Mingzhu, if the explanation is not clear, she is afraid that she is not going to go in to eat! According to her original idea, she originally planned to go to the antique market in S City for a walk, so as to prepare a hidden place for this night pearl, but the problem is that the appearance of this night pearl is too beautiful, if Without a lucky 'blind box' to follow, it simply wasn't something she could afford. So this box is still very necessary.

After finishing all this work, Lin Xianxian took all her net worth in her arms, climbed up and asked for her 78 RMB bed that night, and slept comfortably.

The next day, as soon as Lin Xianxian opened her eyes, she reflexively went to check her bag. He relaxed his body and lay back on the bed.

She dawdled in the duvet for a while, and finally stretched her waist and walked into the bathroom with her bag.

After breakfast was settled, she was ready to leave for the Antique Street where she had checked the route yesterday.

The antique market is still quite far from the railway station, at least much farther than the West Queen Mother's Garden. Lin Xianxian reversed and took the car, and it took nearly two hours to finally arrive at this famous antique street in the country.

Although it wasn't a Sunday, there were not a lot of people on Antique Street. Lin Xianxian carefully looked at her things and started to stroll along the stalls along the street. After walking around, she bought two trap boxes. The textures looked the same. Her boxes are almost the same, but these two are probably just worn by the seller on purpose.

Why did Lin Xianxian say this, because she cut the price from the seller's asking price of 50,000 yuan to 100 yuan. Although the seller said that it was a good omen for the opening, the two boxes were given to her for free, but Lin Xianxian didn't believe it. He won't be able to make any money. You know, the 100 yuan at this time is not as gross as it will be in the future, and the purchasing power is still quite acceptable.

As expected, Lin Xianxian successfully opened those two boxes before she even walked out of the antique street with the unique skill of opening the 'blind box' that she had learned when she was bored in ancient times. The wood in it still has burrs, and it hasn't even been painted. It looks like it was cut by a machine.

The peddler earned at least half of her money, but she just found a reasonable source for her box, so the 100 was necessary.

After Lin Xianxian came out of the antique market, it was about 10:00 in the morning. She first found a fast food restaurant nearby to settle her lunch, and then drove to the antique appraisal center in S city.

Before entrusting the lot to the auction house, it is best to go through this procedure first. Although the auction house also provides appraisal services, if the appraisal certificate of the auction house is used, there is no problem. The seller may really lose everything!

To give the simplest example, in fact, in the industry, it is not uncommon for auction houses to lose items. Although it does not happen often, it is really unclear what is going on. If it is unfortunate The matter was put on the stall by her, and if she did not have the identification certificate of the auction authority, the auction house said how much it would pay her, which was basically how much it was.

Maybe it's the psychology of the suspect stealing the axe. Lin Xianxian thinks that her night pearl is really easy to lose, so she plans to go to an authoritative national appraisal agency first and get herself an appraisal certificate.

When they arrived at the land, Lin Xianxian quickly found an appraisal expert under the guidance of the receptionist. There were not many people who came to appraise antiques today, or in other words, not many every day, so Lin Xianxian didn't need to queue.

The old expert looked at her and opened the nanmu box, revealing a bright and full night pearl inside, and her eyes that were slightly cloudy due to her old age lit up two degrees.

He took the night pearl and the box and carefully observed the details of the two with a magnifying glass, and carefully scraped a few samples from the box and the night pearl, and took it to test the carbon 14. After the results came out, it was basically certain that these two pieces The year of the East and West is about a thousand years ago during the Zhou Dynasty.

Based on the exquisiteness and anti-corrosion properties of the mechanism box, as well as the appearance of the night pearl, the old expert finally estimated the antique to be between 1.3 million and 1.8 million.

And because Pinyun Pavilion is not very far from the antique appraisal center, it is only a 20-minute drive. Lin Xianxian, who came out of the appraisal center at 14:00, went directly to Pinyun Pavilion by car.

After showing the lot and the appraisal certificate to the receptionist, the receptionist quickly took her to the reception room. Although the things she took out looked very reliable, the formal auction house also had to go through an appraisal procedure.

Because the thing is real and there is no water mixed in it, the conclusion given by the auction house's appraiser is almost the same as the conclusion on the appraisal certificate.

After confirming again that Lin Xianxian was determined to auction this thing, the staff of the auction house took out an auction contract.

There are two forms of payment in the contract. One is to pay a deposit. After the auction, the auction house will take a 7% commission of the transaction price. The other is that there is no need to pay any fees. After the auction, the auction house will take a 10% commission.

Lin Xianxian naturally chose the second type. She has more than 1,000 yuan in her pocket now, and she is afraid that she can't even pay a fraction of the deposit! ~

In addition, she also paid attention to some compensation matters after the item was lost in the clause. The first contract that the auction house gave her stated that if the item was lost, the auction house would pay 10% of the customer's estimated value as appropriate.

10%! Or discretionary? ! Lin Xianxian must have a big head to sign this contract! ~

When Lin Xianxian said that if this clause is not revised to be fully responsible, she will change to another auction house. The staff of the auction house also assured her that the auction items are absolutely safe. This clause is just a bonus or something, trying to convince her Lin Xianxian signed his name on the contract.

But Lin Xianxian is not stupid. Everything is written into the contract, and nothing is given for nothing. Seeing that the staff couldn't convince Lin Xianxian, they fought with her on a percentage basis. On this point, Lin Xianxian is not She will give in. It's not that she doesn't pay commissions. Why should you lose the things you put in your auction house, and I have to bear a percentage of the loss!

Really, Lin Xianxian was planning to switch to another auction house for the person who gave the ink ink. This auction house was so scheming with its customers that it seriously lowered Lin Xianxian's trust in them.

However, Lin Xianxian also knew that in fact, the auction houses were similar, and it might not be safe for her to go out through this door with this thing. Therefore, after compromising on Pinyun Pavilion, after checking that there were no traps in the contract, Lin Xianxian signed the auction contract.

The final bidding price for this night pearl was 1.5 million RMB. After signing the contract, Lin Xianxian also borrowed the auction house's camera to photograph the contract in duplicate, and waited until the photo was developed before she could He walked out of Pinyun Pavilion with the relevant materials.

Although doing this may make the scene a bit ugly, it is better than suffering losses afterwards. Protecting your rights and interests can’t be too comprehensive. If you want not to suffer losses, don’t worry about the world.

Lin Xianxian's night pearl will be auctioned at the annual treasure auction held in S City of Pinyun Pavilion in two weeks. At that time, Lin Xianxian will also be responsible for opening the box on the spot, because after the box is closed, it will not work. It is difficult for those who know the key to open it, and this is what Lin Xianxian deliberately kept.

What she should do now is to find a short-term job with food and shelter.

Because at this time, there were no buses outside, so Lin Xianxian walked along the street and looked at the recruitment stickers of various shops along the street.

After asking about a restaurant, a supermarket and a gym, only the gym owner was willing to offer her this overworked job.

The proprietress of the gym is also surnamed Hu and her name is Hu Ling. Perhaps because Lin Xianxian was alone in S City, she offered her a job as a receptionist. After all, the people who would come out to find a job when the shop was about to close were basically in a hurry. Hu Ling was really afraid that she would reject this girl, who would be sleeping on the street tonight.
