A big taboo in the antique shop is

The founder of the antique business is Fan Li. He first proposed that grain and cloth would be very profitable, Chinese medicine pawn shops would be 100% profitable, and antiques, calligraphy and painting would be 1000% profitable. The founder of antique collectors is Lao Tzu. In the Zhou Dynasty, Lao Tzu once made a "history of keeping treasures." The "Tao Te Ching" reminds people that they should behave in a proper manner and behave virtuously. "The way of heaven is beneficial but not harmful. The way of saints is to do without fighting." "To love too much will cost a lot, to store too much will lead to death. If you are content, you will not be humiliated. If you know how to stop, it will not be ruined. It can last for a long time." , the best is like water; the movement of heaven is strong, and a gentleman keeps improving himself."

2. "Knowing the past will not make you rich, knowing the past will not make you rich", which means that a person will not be rich if he knows the past. A person who only collects good antiques but does not play their due role is not a truly wealthy person. Only those who can truly discern the value of antiques are rich. This shows that there is a lot of knowledge in collecting. If you don’t understand the knowledge, it is best not to do this business. If you do, you will "lose your ambition by playing with things" and regret it later.

3. Cultural relics and antiques are the cultural blood of the nation, so the traditional seventy-two lines, antiques are the most popular. Because this industry emphasizes vision and knowledge, power, influence and money are all at a disadvantage. This industry truly embodies the idea of ??"governing by doing nothing". Suffering a loss is "paying tuition", taking advantage is "picking up leaks", going back on your own account and looking for consequences is "playing a gangster" (excluding fraud), and not knowing the rules is "sticking".

4. In the field of antiques, there are four types: insiders, outsiders, dealers and counterfeiters. Insiders refer to those who have eyesight and understand the rules of the antique trade; outsiders, also known as laymen, refer to those who have no vision, no knowledge and collect indiscriminately; dealers cover a wide range of people, such as shops, vendors, connoisseurs or brokers. The distinction between the righteous path and the evil path mainly refers to the groups that sell antiques; counterfeiting has always been an integral part of the antiques industry, and it is also a challenging stumbling block for the antiques industry. They are mainly divided into extremely imitation, high imitation, medium imitation, low imitation, street stall goods and junk goods. To engage in this industry, you must thoroughly understand the "four states", otherwise you will really not be able to play.

5. In the past, antique shops emphasized "teaching and mentoring" from masters, that is, studying with the master for three years, helping the master with odd jobs for three years, and then being mentored by the master for another three years. Only when you really have the skills can you come out to work in the world. Nowadays, people are fooling around after reading two reference books, so there are too many fools, which has led to the boom of the antique counterfeiting industry. Fake antiques are everywhere, and there are many "national treasure gangs". Some people say that in the antiques industry, "if the water is clear, there will be no fish", but if the water is too muddy, the fish will die. As a practitioner, it is still very necessary to maintain the overall environment and ecological balance of the antique industry.

6. When getting involved in the field of antiques, seeking truth is the basis, seeking refinement is pursuit, seeking treasures is wisdom, and seeking skills is sublimation. If you don't really put in the effort and still get the heartache of "treasure", you are not playing with antiques, but actually playing with your own life. As everyone knows: the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and the treasures have their own destination. There is no casual success, no casual mistakes. What is often obtained too easily is either a disaster or a disaster.
