Chapter 141 Misunderstanding

The weather forecast is still accurate. Seeing that the weather was not right outside and the wind was blowing loudly, it was heard in the house. Zhou Xia and Liu Yuqing went home early...

Zhou Xia's pace was quite fast. After a while, he saw lightning and thunder outside, and then there was a heavy rain.

"It seems that the plan to go out tomorrow has also failed."

Zhou Xia muttered to himself.

However, he didn't have to worry about having nothing to do.

Even if he stays at home, he can learn about things outside through many ways.

After going home to wash, it was still early. He was on the Internet, but he would have forgotten it. There was lightning outside, so it would be troublesome if the cat and network card were struck by lightning.

Fortunately, there is an auction catalog at home, so he can read it and deepen his impression. At the upcoming autumn auction, the more you do the preparations, the better.

There must be a lot of good things at the auction, but this also made him feel even more regretful. After all this trouble, he didn't have much money.

Although Zhou Xia had already expected this situation, there was never a good solution.

According to Xu Yaohui and others' ideas, instead of waiting for those illusory opportunities at the auction, it is better to seize the existing opportunities and buy the authentic products you like.

However, if Zhou Xia really wanted to be a spectator in such an annual autumn film, he would still feel quite unwilling to accept it.

But Zhou Xia couldn't think of a good way to make money, so he could only do it slowly.

Zhou Xia was lying on the sofa and flipping through the auction catalogue, his cell phone rang. He took it over and saw that it was called by his junior sister Su Xiaoru.

Zhou Xia answered the phone and asked her how she had been in the past few days, and why she suddenly thought about calling him.

Su Xiaoru smiled and said, "It's okay, why don't you call you if you're fine?"

"Of course, I just think it's a little strange." Zhou Xia didn't mention this soon, "I've read the information these days, or something!"

Su Xiaoru said yes, anyway, now I am in my senior year, and I have time, so even if I don’t go to class, it doesn’t matter.

After a while of greeting, Su Xiaoru explained what she meant and asked Zhou Xia, "Senior Brother Zhou, do you have time tomorrow?"

"I have no arrangements tomorrow. What's wrong? Are you going to come and study the auction catalog?" Zhou Xia thought, it would be better not to go out if he didn't go out on a rainy day. If he stayed at home with peace of mind and someone was cooking, it would be the most suitable.

"That's right. A few classmates in our class plan to go to the antique city tomorrow and ask me to go with me. I feel embarrassed to refuse. I see what they mean is that they really plan to go out to buy something, so I want to invite you, Senior Brother Zhou, but I don't know if it's convenient. I also know that this request is too much, but I can't stop them." Su Xiaoru said a little nervously.

"It doesn't matter. I have nothing to do tomorrow anyway, so it's okay to go to the antique city. You are planning to go to that antique city. I'm looking at the weather forecast, it may rain tomorrow. If you want to go out, it may not be suitable for rainy days."

"Yes, I went there because it rained, otherwise everyone would be busy with their own affairs."

"Okay, we'll meet outside the antique city then."

"Okay, thank you Senior Brother Zhou!" Su Xiaoru said sincerely.

Zhou Xia smiled, "Why are you polite to me? See you tomorrow."

After Su Xiaoru hung up the phone, Zhou Xia also thought about this matter carefully.

This is actually not difficult to explain.

Because, when Zhou Xia was the same age as them, she also experienced such things.

Everyone thinks! I have studied this major for so long, and I didn’t have many opportunities to go to the antique city before, nor did I have the opportunity to buy things. I’m about to graduate, and I may never work in this major from now on. It’s good to gather together and join in the fun.

Zhou Xia could understand these mentalities, so he agreed readily.

As a student, he doesn’t have much money in his hands, so he will feel even more heartbroken if he wants to buy any fake or imitation.

These things did not affect Zhou Xia's mood much. Soon, he continued to fight against the auction catalogue and strived to win those cheap and affordable items at the autumn auction.

After the time of sleep, Zhou Xia went to bed.

However, he forgot to turn off his alarm clock, and when it came at 4 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Xia was woken up.

When he heard that it was still raining heavily outside, Zhou Xia turned off the alarm clock and lie back and slept for two more hours.

Then get up early, wash and have breakfast.

There will be no thunder, so he searched the Internet for some information.

Nowadays, the resources online are quite rich, and auction records from many years ago can be found.

Of course, if you want to say something you like, the auction catalogue is more direct, with clear pictures and large pictures, and it won’t hurt the eyes so much.

Zhou Xia remembered what Liu Yuqing promised to collect all the previous auction catalogs and store them in the company. At that time, you can just go to the company to read them directly.

But online search is also a bit of a benefit, that is, you can view the auction transaction price, which is not found in the auction catalog. Unless someone specifically marks it for you later.

In addition, Zhou Xia can also learn about the recent market trends, various events in the antique collection industry, the latest fake information, various information, etc. through professional collection websites.

This time, Zhou Xiadong looked around and time passed quickly.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Zhou Xia packed up and prepared to go out.

It was still raining outside.

It's really not the time to rain.

Generally, on weekends, when the ghost market has the most customers, many antique dealers from other places will work hard to come to the East China Sea. The market here is large, and things are easy to deal with, and it is not easy to do this.

After seeing the rain fall, the ghost market was in ruins this morning.

Some people who are agile and don’t want to go back like this may move to the battlefield and set up stalls in the antique city.

In addition to fixed shops, the antique city in Donghai also has places similar to flea markets. On the top floor, it is also the most popular place.

Although it is impossible for all the vendors in the Ghost Market to transfer them, the flea market in the Antique City needs to apply for qualifications.

But some dealers with channels will still pass. Even if they work with others and use a stall together, it doesn’t matter, as long as they can sell the things. Some dealers themselves operate together in ghost markets and flea markets.

Zhou Xia was also thinking about this. He felt a little regretful when he couldn't go to Chenggui Market in the morning. It was boring to stay at home, so it would be better to go to the antique city.

When Zhou Xia took an umbrella to the gate of the antique city, Su Xiaoru and the others arrived within a few minutes.

Su Xiaoru was wearing warm clothes today, with her upper body sweater and jeans on her lower body. After all, after the rain, the weather gradually became colder.

"Senior Brother Zhou, I'm sorry, I've let you wait for a long time!" As soon as Su Xiaoru met, she said sorry.

Zhou Xia smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite to me. I just arrived just now, so I won't introduce it to me."

Su Xiaoru laughed and then introduced several of her classmates to Zhou Xia.

In addition to Su Xiaoru, there are two other men and two women.

A tall boy, about 1.8 meters tall, looks rich, is called Gao Ming, and his clothes are all famous brands. When he speaks, he feels arrogant and frivolous, and he doesn't look very reliable. But Zhou Xia doesn't care. Even if his family is in good condition, it's nothing in his eyes.

Gao Ming is actually not Su Xiaoru's classmate. He is studying history and is also Su Xiaoru's classmate. Another pretty girl, Chen Tingting's boyfriend.

There is another girl named Xie Xiaoling. She looks ordinary but has a sweet mouth. I don’t know if Su Xiaoru told her about Zhou Xia. She said that her senior brother was very easy to speak.

Chen Tingting and Xie Xiaoling are both from Su Xiaoru's dormitory. Several girls often go out to taste delicious food together. This time they come to the Antiques City, which is also a collective activity in their dormitory.

Another boy is smaller than a shorter person, about 1.6 meters tall, and his name is Zuo Guohua, who is their classmate, and Xie Xiaoling's fellow villager and good friend. He is quite kind. Judging from his clothes, his family is not particularly rich, so his aura is much weaker than Gao Ming.

Zhou Xia greeted them one by one, and then several people headed towards the antique market on the third floor.

Such a huge team is impossible not to attract attention.

Fortunately, there are many people visiting antiques this day, so they won’t look particularly conspicuous.

Gao Ming and Zuo Guohua fell at the end, Chen Tingting and Xie Xiaoling walked in front with their hands in hand, but they said and asked Zhou Xia's situation from time to time, and they were inquiring about Zhou Xia's situation, as if they wanted to get some confirmation from his mouth in person.

Before coming, Su Xiaoru also told them about Zhou Xia’s general situation.

However, the two girls refused to believe that Zhou Xia could get an annual salary of one million in just two years after graduation.

How could this make them feel sorry for? The work of several people has not been implemented now. Even if they find a job, it would be quite good to get three or four thousand a month.

As the people in the same dormitory as her, they naturally saw all the changes in Su Xiaoru's period.

However, they all felt that what she had done was that she had just started to get involved in calligraphy and painting appraisal and dared to guarantee that she would send her to the auction company. It was a bit unreliable, so they advised her to be mentally prepared as soon as possible. Don’t go all the way to go. You should know that looking for a job will be the right time. If you delay, the job will become more and more difficult to find.

As soon as they met, they felt that Zhou Xia had some problems. People with an annual salary of one million would wear so shabby? Zhou Xia’s clothes are just ordinary shopping mall outfits, and they are even more expensive than those with a smart outfit.

Although they do not want to characterize Zhou Xia as a liar, judging from the current situation, this is very likely.

They feel that as Su Xiaoru's roommate and friend, she has been together for three or four years, and has the responsibility and obligation to help her identify the scammers so that she will not be deceived and use her future as a bet. Maybe she will end up in a ** or something like that.

Chen Tingting and the others could clearly see him. Su Xiaoru's admiration for Zhou Xia, the way she looked lit up, made them feel worried. This was obviously fascinated by him, as if Zhou Xia was right in everything she said, and she would do whatever she asked her to do. This was the worst thing.

That's why they planned this, saying that everyone was visiting the antique city to see if there was anything they like. If there was one, they would buy it, and maybe they could get some more. In fact, they wanted to take this opportunity to inspect Zhou Xia personally.

However, the few of them unified in advance and hid it better.

Su Xiaoru did not realize this, and she did not tell them everything. That day, she went to buy paintings, and in a short time, she earned tens of thousands of yuan. Su Xiaoru didn't say it either. She felt that this was Zhou Xia's private affairs, so it was not easy to use it everywhere to spread the word how much money he made. It was already very unusual to reveal that his annual salary was one million.

Zhou Xia felt a little strange because the questions asked by these two junior sisters were very detailed.

But he didn't think too much, just because they wanted to learn more about the situation of the auction company, and after graduation, they also hoped to join the auction company to do things.

They are all junior sisters from the same school and are Su Xiaoru's good friends, so Zhou Xia gave the most detailed answer. She hopes to give them some help within her ability. Of course, it is not realistic to ask him to help them like he helps Su Xiaoru. First, everyone's talents are different, and Zhou Xia is not very familiar with them; second, Zhou Xia's time and energy are very limited, so helping Su Xiaoru is already his limit.

Chen Tingting and Xie Xiaoling exchanged their eyes from time to time, but they didn't find anything particularly useful from Zhou Xia's mouth.

The Tiandi Auction Company where he works does exist and is quite famous in the East China Sea. The detailed questions he answered in all aspects were answered in an orderly manner without any mistakes. At least, they were not found.

But this is not enough to dispel their doubts. They know that the highest level of lies is the nine truths and one false.

As the saying goes, "It's a mule or a horse, just pull it out and you'll know."

Since Su Xiaoru said that he was a senior appraiser at Tiandi Auction Company, it would definitely be no problem to identify these small things in the antique market.

It is most appropriate to take this aspect to examine his level.

If they are lucky and encounter good things, they might be able to get a bargain, and then they will be happier.

Zhou Xia didn't know what they were planning in their hearts, and even if he knew, he would laugh it off. Anyway, he sat upright, walked right, and had a clear conscience.

After a period of experience, Su Xiaoru's horizons have broadened a lot. She doesn't really look down on small things like antique markets. It is her top priority to try her best to improve her calligraphy and painting appraisal.

However, it was difficult for her to refuse the invitation from her roommate, so she was in the current situation. (To be continued.
