Chapter 14: Triggering C-Level Task Flying Warehouse Web

  This was Lin Feng's first time visiting an antique market.

  This is a street of antiques, with only a few pawn shops on the street, almost all antique shops, densely packed, with different decoration styles.

  At the entrance of the store, there were still many people setting up stalls and hawking their wares.

  Jade, celadon ceramics, Buddha statues, incense burners, famous calligraphy and paintings, four treasures of the study, red wood furniture, bone and wood carvings, antique clocks and cameras, etc.

  The streets at the entrance of the market were filled with all sorts of cars, many people came to buy antiques with an investment mentality, but some also came to search for treasures with a mindset of getting rich overnight.

  Lin Feng was the latter.

  Outside, it's bustling, inside, it's about the doorway. Even if you're an insider, when identifying antiques, you can't be careless at all. After all, in this line of antique collecting, one misstep will lead to eternal regret. Many experienced collectors are extremely cautious and meticulous when identifying antiques.

  Lin Feng had already mastered the technique of identifying genuine and fake cultural relics, even if it was just a glance, he could tell whether an object was genuine or not.

  Although the market is basically full of fakes, the transaction volume is still quite objective. In this day and age, genuine antiques are rarely circulated.

  Lin Feng wasn't a businessman, he didn't have the confidence to resell the counterfeit goods at a high price, but when he saw an exquisitely crafted jade bracelet, he still asked for the price.

  "How much is this bracelet?"

  "What's this?" The vendor raised his head, looked up and down at Lin Feng, saw that he was wearing ordinary clothes and had a student appearance, and wasn't interested. He casually said, "This is Hetian jade, several tens of thousands of yuan per gram, you can't afford it."

  If you don't understand the market, it's likely to be frightened, but Lin Feng knew that this was just an ordinary jade bangle, similar to those sold on the street for 10 yuan, only with more delicate workmanship.

  "Twenty, is it okay?" Lin Feng said without caring about the price offered by the other party.

  "At least five hundred!" The vendor, seeing that Lin Feng was really interested in buying, became slightly more enthusiastic and said, "Young man, this is genuine Hetian jade. Today's not an auspicious day to open for business, so I'll give you a good deal - five hundred is cheap for you."

  Lin Feng couldn't accept this price, shook his head and turned around to leave.

  "Hey, hey, little brother, the price is negotiable, take it for 200... buy one get one free for 100..."

  After some haggling, Lin Fenghua bought the bracelet for thirty yuan.

  Nothing was found in the entire antique market, just as Lin Feng wanted to leave, one of the ceramic bowls caught his attention.

  There were about a dozen or so ceramic bowls, all of which looked similar in style. According to the seller's claim, they were undoubtedly Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain bowls, but Lin Feng knew that these ceramic bowls were modern handicrafts, except for one, which was a genuine blue and white porcelain bowl.

  It is unclear at which stage the problem occurred, but a genuine Qinghua porcelain bowl and a fake one were mixed together.

  Lin Feng could distinguish between genuine and fake antiques, but he didn't know the market price. However, he had also heard of the value of Qinghua porcelain, so this one Qinghua porcelain bowl wouldn't be worth hundreds of thousands or even millions, would it?

  Although he tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, Lin Feng's tone was still somewhat unusual when asking for the price. He pointed at that pile of ceramic bowls and said, "How much are they selling for?"

  The peddler took one look at Lin Feng's appearance and was delighted. After more than a decade of crawling around the antique market, what kind of people and things hadn't he seen? As soon as there were new customers in the antique market who thought they had discovered some treasure, no matter how calm they pretended to be, he could tell at a glance.

  The hawker knew that Lin Feng must have discovered something.

  But these are just ordinary ceramic bowls, although Lin Feng looks like he doesn't have much money, a mosquito is still a piece of meat after all!

  "This is a high-quality imitation of Qing dynasty famous kiln's fine blue and white porcelain bowl, one thousand yuan each. I can see you're a student and don't have much money, if you really like it, I can give you one for six hundred." The vendor knew Lin Feng didn't have much money on him, he wanted to make this deal happen, so he was worried that if he quoted too high a price, he would scare Lin Feng away.

  "I only have over 300 on me." The money Lin Feng had was his senior high school tuition fee.

  "Take one away!"

  Lin Feng paid the money, took out a genuine Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain bowl, under the gaze of contempt and ridicule from the small vendors, took off his school uniform, carefully wrapped the porcelain bowl.

  As he walked out of the antique market, Lin Feng let out a sigh of relief, his heart still racing with inexplicable excitement.

  Although he can distinguish between genuine and fake antiques, he doesn't know the market price. However, he has also heard that Qinghua porcelain is extremely valuable, with prices ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions. This one Qinghua porcelain bowl won't be worth hundreds of thousands or millions, will it?

  Carrying a Qinghua porcelain bowl, Lin Feng arrived at a large antique shop near the antique market, Wang Dynasty Antiques.

  "How much is this bowl?" Lin Feng placed the bowl on the counter.

  A staff member saw Lin Feng was a student and just glanced at the ceramic bowl, then smiled: "Picked up from the market, right? Take it back to use for meals!"

  Lin Feng sneered and said, "I thought Wang Chao's antique shop was something special, but it turns out to be just a name. You can't even recognize an authentic Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain bowl?"

  Just as the staff were about to argue, an elderly man in his seventies walked out from inside. Seeing Lin Feng's ceramic bowl, his eyes lit up instantly. He quickly took out a pair of reading glasses and put them on, then walked forward, picked up the ceramic bowl, and asked the staff to bring over a magnifying glass.

  The staff saw this and immediately shut their mouths, looking at Lin Feng with surprised eyes.

  Five minutes later, the old man took off his glasses and looked at Lin Feng, sighing: "The antique market can't find a genuine Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain bowl, good eyesight, young man!"

  "How much?" Lin Feng asked.

  When Lin Feng inquired about the price, the old man picked up the bowl again and looked at it from left to right.

  Lin Feng's mood was extremely excited, as if he had spent two yuan to buy a lottery ticket and had already confirmed that he had won the jackpot, with an amount of tens of millions.

  However, Lin Feng knew he was still inexperienced and that speaking too much would lead to mistakes, so he didn't say anything else and instead began to examine the antiques in the Wang Dynasty Antique Shop.

  "It's genuine, unfortunately it's not a guan kiln, just a famous kiln masterpiece. I'll give you 15,000, what do you think?" After a while, the old man made up his mind.

  Hearing that the porcelain bowl was only worth 15,000, Lin Feng felt a little disappointed, but being able to have such a gain was enough to make Lin Feng happy.

  He looked at other antiques in the Wang Dynasty Antique Shop, a Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain bowl with a similar color to Lin Feng's, was priced at over 300,000.

  Lin Feng thought 15,000 shouldn't be an outrageous price, so he agreed.

  After getting the first bucket of gold he dug up, Lin Feng's mood was quite excited. 15,000 yuan, for a high school student from a grassroots family, is indeed a huge windfall.

  With so much money, Lin Feng intended to leave a portion for his family, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find any suitable reason and could only put it off for now.

  The next day was a weekend, at 5:30 in the afternoon, Lin Feng had already arrived at the school gate to wait.

  Actually, Lin Feng knew that Bai Yuchen asked him to watch a movie just to show off in front of Wang Jun, but this was also a good opportunity for Lin Feng to get close to Bai Yuchen, so he still came.

  However, when it was six o'clock, there was no sign of Bai Yuchen.

  Lin Feng's face revealed a hint of mocking smile, even if it was to use himself, take himself as a shield, he didn't deign to meet with him, no wonder he was the number one school flower of Qinglan Middle School!

  She shrugged and just as Lin Feng was about to leave, a sleek white Range Rover stopped beside him. The driver's window rolled down, revealing a young and beautiful girl inside, but her expression was even colder than Bai Yichen's, like an icy goddess who didn't eat or drink anything in the mortal world.

  For some reason, Lin Feng felt that the ice mountain beauty in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't think of where he had seen her before.

  "Are you waiting for Yichen? Get on the bus!"

  Lin Feng got on the back row, slightly dazed, not because he was stunned by his opponent's appearance, but just now, "Peach Blossom Manual" triggered a new task.

  Mission: Kiss the icy beauty's tender chest. Mission level: C-level. Reward upon completion: 10 Peach Blossom points. Mission status: In progress.
