To Make Money, You Have to Create Hype First!

"This, this, this, am I seeing things? The starting price of each one is 40 million?"

"I say, could there have been an error of 4 extra zeros?"

"Hahaha! This young man should write 8 extra zeros! That would be even more awesome!"

"The more expensive cultural relics inside the most awesome Rare Treasure Pavilion on this street, have a starting price of only a few million yuan, right? Does his start from forty million yuan here?"

"If it's really that valuable, why doesn't he auction it off? Why sell it here?"

"I think I saw this young man walk around the antique street a few times just now. I wonder if it had cost him a few thousand yuan or a few hundred yuan to acquire these things and then, he started to add 4 extra zeros to their price and sell them?"

"What the hell is going on?"

At this moment, Luo Feng, confronted by all the finger-pointing by the surrounding people, did not bother.

What he cared about was… why only people who did not know the value of the items had come forward?

Could those who knew the value of the items come over?

Of course, one of them was right. Taking the items to the auction was a good choice.

However, to put it bluntly, the auction would deduct a lot of handling fees. The buyers and sellers would basically be working for the auction.

There was a lot going on inside.

And it was very troublesome.

Simply put, if Luo Feng had done more, he would definitely be able to earn more money, but it would be too troublesome.

Wasn't this like picking items from the streets?

What effort is there?

He might as well dote on his nieces and obtain rewards.

Therefore, Luo Feng certainly would not go to the auction.

"Sigh, there aren't any who know the value of the items. Have I labored in vain?"

Luo Feng glanced at these people.

There were about 20 to 30 people around.

It was not very crowded.

He smiled faintly in his heart.

Luo Feng had an idea.

He immediately started to criticize these people.

"I say, do you know the value of the items? If you don't, move aside!"

"Go and learn from a master!"

"Don't judge treasures based on what you know!"

"You guys have terrible taste!"

Luo Feng scolded the uncle at the front.

"Young man? Are you talking about me?" The uncle pointed to himself. Luo Feng seemed to be talking about him.

"I'm not talking about you alone. I'm talking about the whole bunch of you!"

What Luo Feng wanted was their indignation.

When they became furious, they would start making noise.

Then, there would be more people watching.

Then, naturally there would be those who knew the value of the items.

This sentence was like the classic line, 'I'm not saying you're trash. I'm saying everyone here is trash.'

All taunting skills.

"Look at this young man. He's dressed so finely. Why is his speech so unpleasant?"

"I've been in this industry for more than 30 years. How can I not know if these things of yours are worth anything?"

"How rude!"

"Just these three pieces of crap? And you want to sell them for 40 million? Are you crazy?"

Naturally, Luo Feng did not hold back.

They were also not polite either.

No one would put up with anyone.

However, Luo Feng glanced around. It was precisely because so many people were scolding him that more and more people were watching.

He smiled to himself.

It was indeed a little detrimental, but he had achieved his goal.

"Yo! Mr. Long!"

"It's Mr. Long!"

"Is it actually Mr. Long?"

The people around were also enthusiasts who often came to this street.

Seeing Long Jianfei, the chief appraiser of the Rare Treasure Pavilion, they were naturally very familiar.

This Long Jianfei was from the National Archaeological Team. Because of his age, he had retired and become an appraiser in the antique shop. His job was easy and his salary was high.

At this moment, he was passing by.

If it were not for the commotion here, he would not have even taken a second look.

"Mr. Zhang, what are you guys arguing about here?" Long Jianfei looked at an acquaintance in the crowd and asked.

"Hello, Mr. Long. It's nothing important either." Mr. Zhang pointed at Luo Feng's items and said, "Just this kid. He took some items which he had just bought from a stall along the antique street, and then he immediately wrote a line of words, stating that his price starts from at least 40 million. You take a look at these. Then, he said that we don't know their value, and that we don't have good judgment!"

"Heh!" Long Jianfei snorted coldly. He did not say anything because he could tell at a glance that this person was just trying to attract attention. Such a calculative move was nothing new in the antique street.

For many items, as long as there was traffic, even if you were shit, there would always be someone who would like your things.

For example, those phone scams. They looked like idiotic means of deception, but some people would fall for them. This was traffic. With more people, one would always manage to cheat someone.

Long Jianfei was also an old-timer. He would not scold Luo Feng and was about to turn around and leave.

However, Luo Feng yelled, "Sir, since you're already here, why don't you take a look?" Since the other party was some industry expert, Luo Feng was naturally interested in him.

Luo Feng's yell clearly made the other party stop in his tracks.

But Long Jianfei ignored him.

He continued to walk forward.

"There's no harm in taking a look. What if you miss this opportunity to see the treasures?" Luo Feng spoke again.

It was obvious that Long Jianfei also turned his head. What the other party said made sense.

It would not hurt to take a look.

In that case, he would take a look then.

"Little brother, it's a good thing that you did not say anything about my judgment being not good enough to goad me. Otherwise, I really wouldn't take a look!" Long Jianfei turned around and squatted down. With just a glance, Long Jianfei realized that the porcelain vase was a little different.

As expected, the laymen would watch the bustle of the crowd while professionals perceived the knack and how.

These people had been looking at it for half a day, and all had said that it was trash.

The other party, on the other hand, seemed to have seen through it with just one glance.

"This imitation is quite interesting! Making such a shell? Are you trying to create a mystery?"

Of course, Long Jianfei only said this in his heart.

For such an old fox, there would not be any conflict of words.

But then as he continued to look at it, his eyes shone with an incredible bright light.

The hand holding the porcelain vase trembled imperceptibly.
