Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 15 The Pirate King's Spyglass

The stall in front of you belongs to a second-hand store, and there are many good things!

Seeing where these things were placed and how much the stall owner attached to them, Ye Tian immediately understood that this was not a place to pick up treasures by himself.

But he didn't leave, but looked at something on the stall with interest, and was so excited that he wanted to buy it.

This is an antique and old monocular. It is made of brass and has exquisite workmanship. Every detail is very delicate. The position of the hand is shiny and bright, as if it has been used for a long time.

The telescope looks a bit historically vicissitudes of life, much like an antique from the seventeenth century.

And on the elegant carved mirror tube, there is also a pirate skull flag engraved with two crossed sabers and a hideous skull.

There is a line of beautiful cursive English below the skull banner, which reads 'King of Pirates, Henry Morgan'

Henry Morgan was the most famous British pirate in the seventeenth century, and he was not only a pirate captain, but later became the Governor of Jamaica. He was the most accomplished hero among pirates! The real king of pirates!

Such a treasure, why is it said to be antique and old?

It's simple! It does not have any light in Ye Tian's eyes, let alone the yellow light of seventeenth century antiques, it is undoubtedly a modern product!

Ye Tian was interested in it because of the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The shot of the pirate captain standing on the bow and holding the monocular to look at the sea makes him excited every time, and it also makes him yearn for the feeling of crossing the ocean.

Seeing this beautifully crafted pirate craft at this moment, Ye Tian was immediately itchy, and of course he didn't want to miss it.

After standing and admiring his eyes, he started talking to the stall owner.

"Hello, can I see this telescope?"

The stall owner smiled and nodded.

"Okay, please take a look"

"OK"

After saying that, Ye Tian picked up the binoculars and began to examine it carefully.

It is very heavy to start with, obviously the materials are sufficient, even if it is just a handicraft, the price will not be too low.

Then it's time to look at the details.

There is no flaw in the appearance of the telescope, and it is very perfect. Almost all details have been considered. Even in order to be more realistic, the production process is imitated by the old method!

For such a fine handicraft, it is difficult for people who do not know the history of pirates and have no research on antiques to see its true age.

The same is true for Ye Tian. If it wasn't for his supernatural powers, he would definitely think that this was an antique from the seventeenth century.

Then he tried the telescopic performance of the audition barrel, which was very smooth, without the slightest sense of lag, and finally checked the function.

Ye Tian also experienced the feeling of a pirate. He learned the pose of the movie SH pirate captain, pulled the three-section lens tube to the maximum, held it with both hands and brought it to the front, and began to observe the distant scene.

The field of vision is clear, and the distance to see is also very far. It is a very good toy.

After checking everything and confirming that there is nothing wrong, Ye Tian put away the telescope, put it back in its original place, and began to inquire about the price of the stall owner.

"Hello, this telescope is very good, what's the price?"

There was a hint of joy in the eyes of the stall owner, and he immediately opened the price with a smile.

"This is a 17th century pirate sight glass. It's made of brass. It's very well made, and it's very collectible. The price is $300. For a few Franklins, you can experience the wonderful taste of a pirate captain!"

"Wow!"

Ye Tian exclaimed, his eyes widened, and he looked at the stall owner in disbelief.

It's really dark to start! This is taking a buddy as a big head!

This isn't a professional telescope, it's just a piece of craftsmanship. How dare you open your mouth like a lion!

As for what came from the seventeenth century, Ye Tian directly filtered it out, and I have to believe it!

Are you willing to drive three hundred for a seventeenth-century antique? And it's the telescope that Henry Morgan used!

If this is true,

I am afraid there are countless people grabbing three million dollars, so you can take it to the flea market to sell it?

Seeing Ye Tian's dramatic change in expression, the stall owner's eyes flashed a hint of embarrassment. Of course, he understood how much the price was worth!

But after all, he is a tried and tested profiteer. His expression has not changed in the slightest, and he is still very determined. It seems that he is indeed a treasure from Henry Morgan.

After being surprised, Ye Tian shook his head with a smile and said:

"It's too expensive! It's a beautiful thing, but I don't think it's worth $300. I can only give $50, how about it? Can it be sold?"

"No, $50 is too low, I can make a little concession, $280"

The stall owner shook his head very firmly, and then set out a new price.

"Still too expensive! Is $80 okay? I think it's almost the same price as a new telescope online, let alone a used one!"

Ye Tian smiled and raised a little price, he really wanted to take down the binoculars to play with.

"The price is still too low! Unacceptable, look at the workmanship and quality of this telescope, is it ordinary? At $240, this is the biggest concession I can make!"

The stall owner shook his head again and rejected Ye Tian's offer, but he also took a step back.

...

Garcia and a few friends were standing not far away, observing Ye Tian's actions.

Seeing Ye Tian starting to bargain with the stall owner, Garcia's face immediately showed joy.

Time for revenge!

Then he said to a black buddy beside him:

"Reed, this time you're here to make a move, raise the price, and slap this kid hard! Look at me when you make an offer!"

"Okay, look at me! I must teach him a profound lesson."

Reed nodded excitedly, and walked towards Ye Tian.

Garcia and the others continued to watch the play from a distance, and did not follow, lest they arouse Ye Tian's alarm and lose this chance for revenge.

"$120, this is my last offer, if I can, I'll pay, if not, forget it! I'll go to another booth to see"

Ye Tian is still bargaining with the stall owner, enticing the other party!

Hearing the price, the stall owner was a little moved, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes, there was a profit!

But he did not immediately nod in agreement, but began to ponder.

Ye Tian was not in a hurry, just smiled and looked at each other, waiting for the stall owner to make a decision. If the price still cannot be won, then he is ready to give up.

At this moment, a word suddenly came from the side.

"Dude, how much is this pirate telescope? I'm going to sail a yacht in a few days, and I just need one."

This question suddenly broke the calm, Ye Tian and the stall owner both turned their heads and looked over.

It was Reed who came. He pointed at the telescope and seemed to ask curiously, but most of his eyes were on Ye Tian, ​​observing Ye Tian's reaction.

Ye Tian recognized Reed at first glance, isn't this the black buddy who stood beside Garcia just now!

Are you the only one driving a yacht out to sea? Have you seen what a yacht looks like? You may not be able to earn berth fees at the New York yacht marina even if you vomit blood for a year!

"Hey!"

Ye Tian sneered.

In a flash, he understood Reed's intention. Nine times out of ten, he came to mess up, and it must have been inspired by Garcia.

Thinking of this, he immediately turned his head and looked around.

Sure enough, Garcia and the others were not far away, pretending to focus on something on another stall.

have to! Since you want to play, let's play with you and see who is unlucky in the end!

Hearing Reed's inquiry, the stall owner immediately became overjoyed that there were competitors! Maybe you can earn more!

"This young man offers $120, if you get more than that, sell it to you! If you can't pay, give it to this young man"

The stall owner pointed at Ye Tian and explained a sentence, and then looked at Reed expectantly, with hot eyes!

Sure enough, he was not disappointed and heard the answer he wanted to hear most.

"Wow! So cheap! What a great vintage! For $140, I want it!"

Reed's expression was exaggerated, like discovering a new world, and he was ready to pay the bill after quoting the price.

However, out of the corner of his eyes, he has been watching Ye Tian, ​​waiting for Ye Tian to get dressed.

"Good actor! He has the level of a movie star!"

Ye Tian secretly smiled and praised.

Since I want to play games, I must cooperate, otherwise it will be boring! Not happy either!

The next second, he turned to look at Reed and said angrily:

"Dude, you're not doing this well, are you?"

"Isn't the price yet? It's not a bad rule for me to intervene now!"

Reed said with a shrug of his shoulders and a smug look on his face.

"Yes, he can make an inquiry now, and if we agree on a price, he can't bid"

The stall owner explained that he was eager for more people to bid!

"Okay! If that's the case, then I'll pay $160, should I be okay?"

Ye Tian reluctantly quoted a new price, and he was ready to take out his wallet.

The stall owner's smiling mouth cracked, looking at Reed as if he were looking at his relatives, his eyes were full of love.

Just as he was about to nod his head in agreement, the phone rang.

The stall owner glanced at his phone, and immediately said to Ye Tian and Reed:

"Wait a minute, I'll take a call"

After he finished speaking, he took the mobile phone and took two steps to the side, and started to answer the phone.

Ye Tian and Reed looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, the smell of gunpowder was already full between the two, and it seemed that they would explode!

But Ye Tian burst into laughter in his heart. At the same time, he imagined the next step in the plot. How could he teach this group a painful lesson?

Two minutes later, the stall owner came back, and when he faced Ye Tian and Reed again, his eyes became a little weird.

He looked at Ye Tian with a hint of greed mixed with curiosity!

Looking at Reed, it is more contempt and disdain.

As soon as the stall owner came back, Ye Tian immediately observed his eyes.

Through the change in the expression in his eyes, Ye Tian had already seen the general meaning.

The call should be from Garcia. The content is self-evident. It must be for the stall owner to cooperate with him and propose a rebate ratio.

Although I am a newcomer at the flea market, I have seen this method many times on other occasions, and it is almost the same! If you can't even handle this, you're a fool!

Let the horses come!
