Luo Tian shook his head and did not say anything, his gaze sweeping the area. Very quickly, in a corner of a pile of porcelain, a green plum vase caught his attention.

Stacked in a pile of porcelain, this plum vase was not eye-catching, but Luo Tian could feel a faint age aura from it.

After hesitating for a while, Luo Tian took a look at the plum vase and was pleasantly surprised to find out that it was the Dragon Spring Kiln's plum vase from the Song Dynasty!

In the past, Luo Tian had often watched programs for the appraisal of treasures. He knew that the plum vase of the Song Dynasty were extremely valuable, any one of them would cost a few hundred thousand yuan, but now, it was casually piled up in the corner. The owner of this shop was not someone who truly understood antiques.

Thinking about it, Luo Tian called the owner over, "Boss, how much is this plum vase?"

"Oh, if you like this plum vase, just give me two thousand dollars."

The boss thought for a moment and said a price that Luo Tian would secretly like, but in order to prevent the other party from becoming suspicious, he maintained his composure, "2000 is too expensive, how about this, a fixed price of 1000."

"That won't do. The lowest price is one thousand and eight hundred. Is it worth less?"

The boss bit the price hard. In fact, he had just received this plum vase from a small mountain village and didn't have the time to find someone to appraise it, so he felt that he would be at a disadvantage if he didn't earn one or two thousand yuan. What if it was something good?

After bargaining for a while, seeing that the owner was not willing to sell it cheaply, Luo Tian immediately pointed to the porcelain jar that Xu Miao was looking at highly, "How about this, add that purple porcelain jar, I will give you a total of 2500 yuan. If possible, I will pay immediately."

"..." "Fine."

After a moment of consideration, the boss finally nodded his head in agreement.

After setting the price, Luo Tian called Xu Miao who was still wandering around over and asked: "You haven't found anything you like yet?"

"Yes." Xu Miao nodded her head, seeing that Luo Tian was holding onto an ugly bottle, just as she was about to ask, she realised that she was looking at a purple porcelain pot in Luo Tian's hands, and was shocked, "What are you doing?"

"Don't you like this jar?" Luo Tian smiled and handed the porcelain jar over to Xu Miao, "This is for you."

"Give it to me?"

Xu Miao was stunned for a moment. She did not extend her hand to receive it, but looked at Luo Tian with a face full of puzzlement. She did not understand why wanted to give him such a gift.

Seeing that, Luo Tian added, "I will treat it as an apology for my previous promise. I was busy that afternoon and was unable to leave."

Luo Tian was naturally referring to the time when he had promised Xu Miao to pick her up in the afternoon.

"Humph!" So you still remember! I thought you had forgotten. "

He glared at Luo Tian, but still did not accept the jar, and instead said: "Apologize and forget about it, I don't want to take other people's things for nothing, how about this, treat the jar as my living expenses, I'll give you the money next month after I come over."

"I said I would give it to you." Luo Tian was speechless. It was just a broken porcelain pot, why did it have to be so troublesome?

But just like that, Xu Miao stubbornly turned his head, "If you're not willing, then forget it."

"Fine, fine, whatever you want!"

Luo Tian had no choice but to compromise. Only then did Xu Miao happily accept the porcelain jar, and fondly played with it.

After paying the bill, the three of them walked out of the antique shop and walked towards the parking area.

Luo Tian was walking in front while carrying a large plum vase in his arms, so he attracted many people's attention. When he passed by an old man who seemed to be around seventy years old, the other person saw the plum vase in Luo Tian's embrace, and their eyes clearly lit up.

"Wait!"

In the next moment, the old man called out to Luo Tian, and hastily chased after him. But before he could reach Luo Tian, a figure suddenly stopped him, scaring the old man so much that his face turned pale, he almost had a heart attack.

"Say it here!" The ghost mask stopped the old man, preventing him from getting too close to Luo Tian.

Luo Tian knew that this Poker Face was protecting him, but this old man did not seem like a Classical Cultivator. Furthermore, the other party was obviously rushing towards the porcelain bottle in his hands, so he took the initiative to walk over, "Sir, what do you need me for?"

The old man looked at the ghost mask in fear, then put on a kind smile, "Lad, can I take a look at that plum vase in your hands?"

"Of course."

Luo Tian nodded, and without any hesitation, he handed the plum vase over.

The older man's hands trembled as he received the plum vase, and after looking at it from inside and outside for a while, he became more and more excited, and could not help but sigh: "As expected, it is the plum vase of the Song Dynasty, and its workmanship is extremely meticulous, and its preservation is also in perfect condition. It has been a long time since such a perfect collection has appeared on the market."

Finished sighing, the old man returned the plum vase back to Luo Tian and asked with a face full of anticipation: "Young lad, are you selling this plum vase?"

The reason why Luo Tian bought the plum vase was to earn money, he nodded his head and said, "Old sir, how about you name a price, if it is suitable, then I will sell it."

"How about a million?"

The old man thought for a moment and gave a price of one million. In fact, these kinds of plum vase in the Song Dynasty usually had a market price of three to four hundred thousand. Although Luo Tian had preserved it pretty well, it was still at most seven to eight hundred thousand.

"My god!"

Xu Miao immediately exclaimed. She did not think that such a porcelain bottle would actually be worth a million, and Luo Tian only spent a thousand dollars on this bottle. This … Earning money was way too easy!

"Deal!"

Luo Tian was very satisfied with this price, without any bargaining, this deal was completed.

When he received the plum vase again, the old man was so happy that his mouth was crooked. With a glance, he knew that this was a person who really liked collecting items.

After the transaction was completed, the old man looked at Luo Tian deeply and praised: "Compared to other Song Dynasty porcelain, this plum vase is far too meticulous in its work, I'm afraid that this is not a collector who had studied it for half his life. It's very difficult for him to recognize it with a single glance.

"Hur hur, I was just lucky that I got hit by a dead rat. How could I be an expert?" Luo Tian laughed as he shook his head.

"Little brother, no need to be modest. I, Huangfu Nan, have never seen anyone with eyes before." The old man had a serious expression on his face. He handed over a business card and said, "I am here to formally invite you to join the Collector's Association. I wonder if you are interested?"

Collectors' Association?

Raising his eyebrows, Luo Tian took the name card and looked at it. He realized that this Huangfu Nan had quite the background, he was actually the president of the Collector's Association!

After a short pause, he asked, "What does the Collector's Association do?"

This is an alliance formed by Chinese collectors. Inside, there are many collectors from different industries, and every once in a while, the association will organize a group event to provide a platform for everyone to learn from each other. Also, in the future, if there is a collection auction, the members of the association don't need any tickets or invitations, and can participate at any time.
