"You have a very sharp eye. I looked there for a long time and couldn't find anything good. You just got an old thing."
Liu Guangqi looked at Bu Yao on Bai Hui's head and said.
"That's right, even if you don't know who I am, aunt, no good things can escape my eyes."
Bai Hui raised her chin proudly after hearing this.
"What on earth is this thing? How can it be so valuable?"
Xu Huizhi on the side was still puzzled that a small thing was so valuable.
"This is an antique. It's hundreds of years old. Of course it's valuable."
Liu Guangqi explained.
"What age is this? Why can't I tell?"
Bai Hui took off the Bu Yao and turned it over in her hand several times, but didn't see anything different.
"Looking at the style, it should be something from the Qianlong period. Although it is not very bright now, it is gilded with gold. Although this thing is not something from the palace, its provenance is definitely not simple. Maybe it is a prince or minister. It's something from my wife's house. I felt something was wrong when the hawker opened his mouth just now, so I tried it on him and paid him a layman's price. It worked out after I tried it. That guy was indeed a parallel importer. I don't know how he got around. Come in here."
"You think that everyone can meet two good masters like you. If it weren't for Master Tong and Shopkeeper Lan, you would be a layman."
Bai Hui looked at Liu Guangqi's proud look and said.
"Hey, then I happened to meet him. Where are you going to reason with him, hehe."
Seeing Bai Hui's unconvinced look, Liu Guangqi said in a low voice.
"That two hundred yuan is too much for such a small thing."
Yunzi on the side said
"The value of antiques is not determined by size, but by age, quantity, and sophistication. Just like this, how much do you think this copper coin is worth?"
Liu Guangqi turned his hand and took out the Daqi Tongbao he found from Scarface.
"one hundred"
"two hundred"
"five hundred"
The three of them looked at the copper coins in Liu Guangqi's hand and reported their estimates one after another. With the lesson learned just now, no one dared to quote too low.
"One hundred yuan, haha"
Liu Guangqi looked at Yunzi who had the lowest bid and chuckled.
"For one hundred yuan, I will let you take a look. Even though this thing is small, it was worth ten thousand oceans in the Republic of China."
"Ten Thousand Oceans"
When they heard the price, the three women shouted out in unison. This time, not to mention Xu Huizhi and Yunzi, even Bai Hui, who was well-informed, couldn't help being shocked.
"What kind of copper coin are you talking about? How can it be so valuable? You couldn't be fooling us, right?"
Bai Hui snatched the copper coin away and looked at it several times but couldn't find anything valuable about it.
"Be careful, don't let me lose it with so many people here. So far, only three of these things have been found in the country. One of them has been lost, and the other one has four eyes on it. This one is of good quality. The best. There happens to be a copper coin seller here. If you don’t believe me, ask him."
Seeing Bai Hui's nonchalant look, Liu Guangqi quickly snatched the copper coins back.
"Stingy, I have never seen you so nervous when I gave birth to my son."
Seeing Liu Guangqi's nervous look, Bai Hui curled her lips and walked to the hawker stall selling copper coins, followed closely by Yunzi and Xu Huizhi. When he saw three beauties who were as tall as angels coming to his stall, the stall owner was so happy that his lips almost reached the back of his head. He stood up, rubbed his hands and greeted them warmly.
"What does this lady like? Just tell me, this thing of mine is absolutely genuine."
"Let me ask you, what is the most expensive thing here."
Bai Hui originally wanted to ask directly about the price of the copper coins, but after glancing at the tea set and incense burner on the corner of the vendor's table, she immediately changed her mind and asked after flipping through a few things.
"Hey, madam, you are giving me a hard time. All my real things are serious old stuff. If you ask me which one is the most expensive, I can't really tell you."
When the stall owner heard Bai Hui ask this, he couldn't figure out Bai Hui's thoughts for a while. After seeing Bai Hui staring at a bronze Buddha statue beside his table, he immediately changed his mind and pointed to the bronze Buddha.
"But if you want to ask me which year the things here are the oldest, it has to be this one."
Seeing that the stall owner had been fooled, Bai Hui's lips curved into a smile. Seeing the smile on Bai Hui's face, the stall owner, who thought he had guessed the beauty's thoughts, instantly made the world a better place.
“How much does this Buddha statue cost?”
"No more, no less than five hundred yuan. This is a serious Buddhist statue from the Kangxi period."
"Five hundred yuan, too expensive."
After hearing this, Bai Hui picked up the Buddha statue and looked it up and down, frowning and said.
"If you really want it, I can make it cheaper for you. How about four hundred and eighty? It's twenty yuan cheaper at once. That's interesting."
"Four hundred and eighty is too expensive."
"My aunt, this is really cheap enough. You can go around the entire Confucian Temple and ask if there is anything cheaper than this for items from the Kangxi period."
“It really can’t get any cheaper?”
Bai Hui looked at the Buddha statue in front of her, looking like she wanted to buy it but was reluctant to buy it.
"Boss, please make it cheaper!"
Yunzi on the side saw Bai Hui's entangled look and thought that Bai Hui really wanted this Buddha statue. He stared at her big innocent eyes and started acting coquettishly with the stall owner.
Seeing Yunzi's cute appearance, the stall owner's heart melted. The eyes of several stall owners nearby turned into heart shapes when they looked at Yunzi, and they even forgot to say hello to the customers in front of them.
"Oh, this lady has already spoken. How about making it ten yuan cheaper. If that doesn't work, just take a look at what else I have on sale that you like, and I'll give you one as compensation."
The stall owner looked like he was in pain and pointed at the things on his stall.
What Bai Hui wants is the stall owner's words. Although she was happy, Bai Hui still pretended to be disgusted.
"Boss, I'm not going to expose you. There are several valuable things in your stall. I'm afraid you know better than me. This Buddha statue is just a little older, and it's not as old as you said. I'm just a person who buys things. I'm always cheerful and don't like to grind, so give me a real price."
The stall owner was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what Bai Hui was thinking. Finally he gritted his teeth and dropped the price by one hundred. I thought Bai Hui would be satisfied with such a large reduction, but Bai Hui still frowned.
"Boss, you are not serious."
After saying that, Bai Hui turned around and prepared to leave. When Liu Guangqi saw this, he followed him with his child in his arms. Although I don’t know how Bai Hui could tell that this thing was old, since Bai Hui wants to lower the price, Liu Guangqi must cooperate with her. And although the Buddha statue is old, it is not old enough to be worth three dollars. One hundred and eighty, at most two hundred.
"Madam, wait a minute. Although this thing of mine does not belong to Kangxi, it is still a real old thing. Three hundred and eighty is really not expensive."
Seeing that the duck is about to run away, the stall owner is also anxious. Now business is getting harder and harder. He has not opened for a long time. It will be even harder to sell these things in his hand. The most taboo in the antique shop If you act in a hurry, you will definitely suffer a loss. The stall owner committed this taboo at this time.
"Three hundred and eighty, yes, but not one item. I have to pick a few more items."
"It's done, it's done,"
The stall owner hurriedly agreed upon hearing that things had turned around.
"This, this, this"
Bai Hui returned to the stall and pointed at several things, which confused the stall owner.
"Madam, don't make fun of me. If I really choose so many, I will be at a loss. If nothing else, my bottle is worth at least forty or fifty yuan. Plus other things, I won't make any money at all. ”
The stall owner said with a grimace.
"It's really not possible!?"
"It really doesn't work. Apart from this bottle, why don't you choose other things?"
The boss put the bottle directly in front of him
"Boss, you are so unreliable. You took out all the good things, and the rest are just junk. They are probably not worth even ten yuan in total."
Bai Hui frowned and said dissatisfied.
"You can't say that, I still have good things here."
"Forget it, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore, this, this can be done this time, right?"
Seeing that the heat was about the same, Bai Hui pointed to the incense burner and tea set in the corner and said.
"this?"
Seeing the two things Bai Hui pointed at, the stall owner became entangled again.
"No, it's not okay. Let's go to the next one."
Seeing that the stall owner looked embarrassed again, Bai Hui directly asked Liu Guangqi and the others to leave.
"Okay, okay, just these two things. But can you add twenty? These two things are made of copper. You can get a lot of money just by selling copper."
The stall owner looked at the two things Bai Hui pointed at. Although these two things were old, they were relatively recent and were less than a hundred years ago. Even if he added them, he would still make a profit, even though he was already relieved. , but the stall owner still wanted to pretend again, lest he agree too readily and Bai Hui would feel disadvantaged.
"Forget it, just give me the money, Guangqi."
Although he could still discuss with the other party, Bai Hui was no longer too lazy to talk to the other party and directly asked Liu Guangqi to give him money.
Although Liu Guangqi felt that the four hundred yuan was a bit too much, since Bai Hui had already discussed it with the other party, Liu Guangqi didn't say anything anymore. I'm happy when money is hard to buy. I'll spend more if I want. Anyway, Bai Hui She usually doesn't spend money in the space, so she had to go out and spend money. Liu Guangqi didn't want to spoil her fun, so he took out a wad of bills from his pocket, took out forty big black tens from it and handed it to the stall owner. When Poor Che Fu Lu came, he asked Lan Yigui to exchange a thousand yuan in cash, which finally came in handy.
"Wait a moment while I wrap things up for you."
After receiving the four hundred dollars from Liu Guangqi, the boss suppressed the joy in his heart and quickly counted the number and authenticity of the banknotes. Then the stall owner took out several boxes and straw paper from under the table and began to pack Bai Hui.
"Boss, what are the ages of the copper coins you have here?"
While the boss was packing, Bai Hui looked through the copper coins on the table. When Bai Hui asked about the coins, Yunzi and Xu Huizhi, who had been silent, also pricked up their ears.
"There are both from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. See which one you like. I'll give you two."
Having just made a big deal, the boss was in a very happy mood. Seeing that Bai Hui was interested in copper coins, he generously prepared to give some to Bai Hui.
"These are very common copper coins. They are everywhere. Are there any rare ones? My grandpa likes them very much. I'll see if I can bring him one."
"What a coincidence. I just sold a sacred treasure from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom two days ago, and I really don't have it in my hands now."
Although there was nothing in his hand, the stall owner couldn't let Bai Hui feel that he had nothing in his hand, so he directly mentioned the things he had sold half a year ago.
"Oh, I see you have so many copper coins here, you must be very knowledgeable about copper coins."
"It's just so-so, not that great, but when it comes to the study of copper coins in Suzhou, if I say second, no one would dare to say first. People give him the nickname Copper Coin Zhang."
The stall owner said with a proud look on his face.
"Then what kind of copper coins do you think are more valuable?"
"Of course they are rare, finely crafted, and commemorative copper coins. If you are interested, you can buy a copy of Fifty Ancient Coins and have a look. The copper coins recorded in it are all the most valuable."
"Oh, then do you think Da Qi Tong Bao is valuable?"
Seeing that the stall owner was about to finish packing the things, Bai Hui finally asked the question that Yunzi and Xu Huizhi were most concerned about. When Bai Hui mentioned the words "Da Qi Tong Bao", the stall owner stopped moving his hands, raised his head and looked at Bai Hui and asked.
"Why are you asking this? It doesn't mean you have this thing in your hand."
"No, I just heard someone mention it. Just ask."
"oh"
The stall owner said oh, thinking that he must have thought too much. If this Da Qi Tong Bao was so easy to meet, it wouldn't be called Da Qi Tong Bao.
"This Daqi Tongbao can no longer be described as valuable. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a fortune. Only two of this Daqi Tongbao have been found since ancient times. One is a missing corner Daqi, which was also discovered. The first Daqi Tongbao. Unfortunately, this copper coin was lost when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom invaded Hangzhou and its owner committed suicide by throwing himself into a lake. After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was annihilated, many people dug up the ground of the owner's house to find it. , I searched it over and over. Unfortunately, I still couldn't find it. From now on, this missing corner Daqi is considered lost."
At this point, the stall owner has already wrapped three things for Bai Hui.
"What about the second one?"
Knowing the story of the first Daqi Tongbao, Yunzi couldn't wait to ask about the second one. Bai Hui and Xu Huizhi were also staring at the stall owner. Seeing the three beauties staring at him, the stall owner showed his good teacher character and told the three people the story of the second Da Qi Tong Bao.
"This second Da Qi Tong Bao appeared during the Republic of China. It is said that it was discovered by Dai Baoting when he was collecting ancient coins in Poyang Lake, because it was discovered that this Da Qi Tong Bao was made into a shuttlecock with four holes on it. , so it is also called the Four-Eyed Daqi. After this person got such a four-eyed Daqi, he resold it to his friend for 500 yuan. After the news spread, there were ancient money lovers who were willing to spend 10,000 yuan to buy it. , but was rejected. Since then, the copper coin has been kept in the hands of that gentleman."
"It's really an ocean of ten thousand."
Hearing the stall owner's words, Bai Hui and the others immediately opened their red lips. They thought Liu Guangqi was coaxing them, but they didn't expect it to be true.
"The ones you mentioned are all broken. How much would a cup of Da Qi Tong Bao be worth if it were intact?"
After all, the three of them were people who had seen gold and silver. Although they were still shocked, their faces had returned to normal. Knowing the story of the two Daqi Tongbao, Bai Hui couldn't help but become interested in the value of the Daqi Tongbao in Liu Guangqi's hand.
"It's impossible?"
The stall owner shook his head and smiled after hearing this.
"What if there is."
Bai Hui must ask clearly if she doesn't want to give up.
"The remaining coins are already worth 10,000 oceans. If there is really an intact Daqi Tongbao in this world, I personally think it must be worth at least 20,000 oceans. It is the only treasure left in the world. The biggest treasure in my life My wish is to be able to see the fifty treasures of Koizumi with my own eyes. If this wish comes true, I will be able to close my eyes even if I die."
The stall owner shook two fingers at Bai Hui. Upon hearing the stall owner's quotation, Bai Hui and the three of them all took a deep breath. As for the second half of the stall owner's words, all three of them ignored it. How could such a precious thing be shown to others so easily? Even if you want others to see it, it must be someone like Tong Fengquan and Lan Yigui who can trust it.
"Hey, come to your senses, can you help me get something? I'm the one holding the baby and carrying things. How many hands do I have?"
Looking at the three people who were in despair, Liu Guangqi woke them up. In front of everyone, he couldn't get the thing into the space. He could only carry it with his hand. If it was normal, it wouldn't matter. The key is that he was still holding a baby in his arms. , the three of them came back to their senses and found that they had left their original place.
Seeing Liu Guangqi's uncomfortable look, Yunzi and Xu Huizhi quickly took the things from Liu Guangqi's hands. Bai Hui also took the child over.
"How do you know that the Buddha statue is old? I remember that you don't seem to have done much research on antiques. It's probably because you see a lot of things in space."
Shaking his sore arm, Liu Guangqi asked Bai Hui.
"I didn't see it, I just randomly picked one that pleased me."
Bai Hui said casually.
"Just pick it!?"
Liu Guangqi was shocked when he heard this.
"What kind of eyes do you have? Just dig them out and give them to me. You are simply the reincarnation of Feng Quan. You don't know anything about treasures. In just a short time, you have already found two old objects here. You... I’m so lucky.”
Liu Guangqi looked at Bai Hui and said dumbfounded.
"What two pieces? It's obviously four pieces."
Bai Hui looked at Liu Guangqi's envious eyes with an arrogant expression on her face.
"What do you mean by that? Could it be that those two things are also treasures? It's impossible. I saw that those two things were from the Xianfeng period. It can't be earlier."
After hearing Bai Hui's words, Liu Guangqi fell into deep self-doubt and murmured to himself.
"You have today too. I thought you really knew everything, hahaha."
Bai Hui looked at Liu Guangqi's fuming expression, pursed her lips and smiled.
