But in that case...people can collude, but how to explain the muddy footprints that appear out of thin air in Internet cafes? How can I explain why my steps feel heavy? How to explain the disappearing coffee? How to explain a child's urine seal that does not spill?
You can't explain this at all.
It only cost a few thousand yuan. I still say the old saying in Jianghu, the world is big and there are all kinds of wonders. It is better to believe that they exist than to believe that they don’t exist. Spend money to eliminate disasters and buy peace of mind.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Meimei called me suddenly.
Meimei was very emotional on the phone. She said: "Boss Xiang! That's amazing! I sent your money to a foreign person who specializes in playing iron money for everyone to see! The other party concluded that this money is a new type of money that has no history. ! It fills in a blank history of Zhejiang Qianjian during the Song Dynasty!"
I asked: "How do you say it is a trial casting variety? Is it produced by the same coin as Chunxi Yuanbao?"
Meimei said excitedly: "It's not that simple! The back is exactly the type of Shenquanjian! This thing of yours is not from Shenquanjian! It must have been a trial casting from an unknown money supervisor at that time! It is of great research value!"
The professional words we speak may not be understood by outsiders. During the Southern Song Dynasty, many copper coins had Qian Jian marks on the backs. For example, you can see the Chunxi Yuanbao with the characters "Zheng" and "Quan" on the back, the Qiandao Yuanbao with the characters "Guang" on the back, the Qiandao Yuanbao with the characters "Song" on the back, and the Kaixi Tongbao with the characters on the back. Li-character copper coins, Jiading Yuanbao Lizhou copper coins, etc. This series of memorization characters is a large and complex system. The small iron coins I caught in the lake are new members of this huge system.
It can be said that this small amount of money has filled a gap in the monetary history of the Southern Song Dynasty and has high academic research value.
"Boss Xiang, there must be more than one money spent. Tell me the truth, how much did you spend?"
I held up the phone and smiled: "Boss Mei, how many coins I give out depends on the thickness of your wallet."
I just want to make money and have no interest in academic research or historical data research.
Meimei said: "I'll tell you the truth. No one will recognize your money in China. That guy from abroad who plays with iron money asked me to help him. He asked me to buy all the iron money. We can discuss the price."
"A big foreign player? A kid?" I asked.
On the other end of the phone, Meimei's tone and mood softened a lot. She said, "Boss Xiang, you have to admit that there is still a big gap between us and others in terms of ancient coin research in the next few decades."
I said excitedly: "That's nonsense! I once had a genius apprentice! His future achievements will definitely surpass all the little devils in this industry!"
"Tell the other party! I won't sell it! No matter how much I pay, I won't sell it! I won't sell one!"
Meimei advised me: "Boss Xiang, I know you have emotions, but our transaction should not involve emotions. Let's just focus on interests. No one in China knows your money, and iron money is not as good as copper money. No one can give you a high price, but I don’t think the other party’s offer will be less than two million.”
I frowned and asked, "If it works, how much commission can you get from it?"
Meimei said truthfully: "Twenty-five percent of the rules in the road."
"Put it down, Boss Mei. No one recognizes this money now, but I think someone will definitely recognize it in the near future. For no other reason, I just don't like little devils. If I can't sell it, I'll just leave it. Yunfeng does not lack the two million."
Meimei still wanted to persuade me, but I just killed her.
As one of the top ancient coin dealers in the South, Meimei is definitely not short of hundreds of thousands in commission. I guess she wants to earn favors from collectors in this island country so that she can buy some good things from them.
There are a lot of good things in the hands of the little devil, many of which cannot be bought with money. Looking at the ancient coin industry alone, only people like Rob Zhaofang Yaoyu during the Republic of China can compare with the quality of the collection of the little devil, but others cannot.
The night this batch of iron coins first came out, Boutou and I didn't dare to recognize the real thing, but the little devil collector dared to quote me two million just after looking at the pictures. This is definitely a cognitive gap. It seems I still need to improve my abilities.
Near noon, I found a place to eat. While I was eating, I suddenly received a strange phone call.
"Hello? Who is this?"
The person speaking over there was a man. He started by saying hello, Mr. Xiang, but his Mandarin sounded awkward.
I frowned and said, "The buyer Meimei talks about is your Excellency, right?"
The other party generously admitted his identity and asked me to make an offer.
I immediately smiled and said, "Sauri, I'm in Missy Missy, bye."
Soon the phone rang again, and I suddenly became unhappy. The thing was mine! I can sell it if I want! If you don’t want to sell it, don’t sell it! What's going on, are you still going to force me?
I picked up the phone and scolded: "You're dead when you're on the phone! Bagaya!"
"Brother, what are you talking about? I'm delivering ducks. I'm in Qiandao Lake Town."
