Chapter 24 The Weird Wooden Box
I heard that there were more than a dozen, and Xia Ge and Xia Guangshou had neither looked very good.
If there are only three, they can buy them all. Compared with the porcelain, debris, silver, etc. in the front, the value of the five-character knife coins is much higher.
Now it is no longer a question of finding a treasure hunt, but whoever can find the highest total price will win.
If they buy three, Huang Deqiu also buys three. Wouldn't it be a draw?
"Take it out and let me take a look, choose a few of them," Xia Guangshou thought for a while and said.
The stall owner nodded and took out more than a dozen more knife coins from the wooden box.
Xia Guangshou looked at it and found that the difference was very different. His appearance was similar, so he chose two at will and said, "Let's go and have a look again. If you don't have the right one, come back and buy one later."
Xia Ge knew that his grandfather was planning to look for items with higher value again, so he pushed his grandfather forward.
I passed by more than a dozen small stalls and there were many genuine products. However, in terms of value, it was still not as good as Knife.
Three five-character knifes of good quality are worth more than 40,000 yuan, and only 30,000 yuan can be purchased. The others are not suitable.
After walking to the end of the alley, he happened to pass by Huang Deqiu. Seeing that he was empty-handed, he obviously hadn't found any good products.
After all, it is a program prepared by the TV station, and the prices of antiques are very accurate. It mainly tests whether those who buy things will buy fakes.
"It seems like a draw may be a draw this time." Xia Guangshou said with a smile.
He could accept this result.
After walking around again, Huang Deqiu happened to come to Xia Ge's stall to buy knives, and the ones in front of him were also ancient books and miscellaneous items.
Because the things are quite complicated, Xia Guangshou stopped and asked Xia Ge to give him some old things.
The stall owner is a young man, about the same age as Xia Ge. Xia Ge asked, "What is the most valuable thing in your family? Take it out and take it out and take a look."
The young man shook his head and pointed to the shop behind him and said, "There are hundreds of thousands of porcelains in it. It is guaranteed to be genuine. Here are cheap things that match the show. You can choose them yourself, and maybe there are good things. I don't know that one is expensive."
As soon as the young man finished speaking, the person at the stall next to him said, "Xiaolin, your grandfather might have really hidden something good. He has just been away for a month, so don't let his family lose his business."
The young man named Lin shook his head and said, "I have already found an appraisal from the provincial experts. All the valuables are inside. I pack them together to auction houses. The antique shop is still not suitable for me. It's too boring!"
Seeing Xia Ge looking at him, Manager Lin explained: "My grandfather has passed away, and this store belongs to me now. You can buy it. Experts have identified it here and they are all real things. The price is given to you at a 20% discount. Anyway, it will be processed in a few days."
Xia Guangshou approached the stall with Xia Ge's support and slowly started rummaging. While looking, he said, "It's indeed a real thing, but it's only worth a few thousand yuan. It's not very meaningful."
When Xia Ge looked at it, it turned out that they were all ancient books. They were printed versions, but they were just ancient books from the Republic of China period, and they were also considered to be of some collection value.
"Hey, this is Pu Songling's tacit tales from a Chinese Studio!" Xia Ge said in surprise.
This is a wooden box with more than a dozen books in it. The first one is the Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio. Unfortunately, it is just a printed book, and there are even Lu Xun's novels and Zhu Ziqing's prose.
The box is like a glove box, but the appearance is very delicate, with many patterns on it and painted with vermilion. Xia Ge said curiously: "Is this box worth a lot of money?"
"This is a camphor wood box, which was specially used to store calligraphy, paintings and rare ancient books in ancient times. If you put it in it, there will be no insects, and it will also prevent mold caused by sweat, putty, and dust. No need to read it. This is a new object, probably it was made by the young man when he was young." Xia Guangshou glanced at the wooden box, pinched it with his hands, and came over to smell it, shook his head and said.
"The old man is really good at seeing. It was indeed my grandfather who made it. If you buy all the ancient books inside and give them to you, you will get 10,000 yuan in 10 books inside, and you will be charged 8,000 yuan at a 20% discount." The owner of the stall owner Lin smiled.
Xia Ge stared at the wooden box, and he always felt something was wrong. Something had always attracted him to look at the wooden box.
Seeing him staring at the wooden box in a daze, Xia Guangshou continued to check out other antiques. The owner of the Lin stall also went over to introduce and recommend Mr. Xia. He left Xia Ge in a daze.
The mobile phone on the wheelchair is still broadcasting live, and the camera is always aimed at the stall, so I naturally saw the abnormal Xia Ge.
The barrage asked one after another.
"Has the anchor discovered some treasure?"
"The stall owners have said that what provincial experts have seen are so easy to pick up bargains. You see, in the past half an hour, just that knife coin can earn hundreds, one thousand yuan. It's not twenty years ago!"
"Come on, anchor! Don't lose to that fat man!"
While the water friends were worried, they heard Huang Deqiu's voice again.
"Old Ye, take out all the good things. I am competing with this grandfather and grandson. Whoever loses will buy 6 items worth less than 10,000 yuan and give them to the other party." Huang Deqiu stood in front of the stall where the sword coins were before and said with a smile.
Boss Ye is the man who looked honest just now. It turns out that he and Huang Deqiu knew each other.
In fact, most of the bosses here, Huang Deqiu knows, after all, they are only a few streets away. He is also a person who loves antiques and likes to come and stroll around when he has nothing to do, so he naturally has a hot fight with the bosses.
On the contrary, Xia Guangshou often came in the past few years, but in the past few years, people of his generation either lived their best or returned to the west. No one knew him anymore.
"Hey, of course the good stuff is for you. I didn't plan to sell this thing, but since you said that, I will definitely satisfy you." The owner of the stall Ye smiled.
After looking at the cameraman who was filming, the stall owner Ye took out the box containing ancient coins and quietly gave Huang Deqiu a wink.
"The two grandparents and grandchildren bought two sword coins from me just now. I hope you can choose them too. There are six-character swords and five-character swords."
Huang Deqiu nodded. As an antique lover, he was naturally familiar with coins. He carefully looked through the knife coins in the box.
When I saw a six-character knife, my eyes lit up. After carefully checking, I shook my head in disappointment.
He looked at the stall owner Ye with a puzzled look, and saw him signaling him to continue turning around. Huang Deqiu continued to check, and soon his eyes lit up.
Another coin appeared that was exactly the same as the previous six-character sword coin, but compared to the previous sword coin, this one gave people a special feeling.
People who often play coins are more sensitive. Although the two same coins, the Warring States and imitations have the same appearance, their weight and color are different in many small details.
This one is obviously a genuine product. The owner of the stall Ye had a real six-character knife from the beginning. He just deliberately sold the fake one and wanted to cheat people.
Moreover, he did not intend to cheat these people who did the show, but was planning to deceive others in the future. Now he was just right to help his friends!
"You choose it yourself. I collected it from someone else, 10,000 yuan per coin, don't bargain. I will buy it and leave it!" The owner of the stall Ye said in a pretense.
Huang Deqiu thought to himself that Ye Xiu was open and sold 70,000 yuan for 10,000 yuan, and took out 30,000 yuan in cash from his bag, and said, "Okay, I just want these three, one six-character knife and two five-character knife!"
When Xia Guangshou heard this, his face changed drastically. He thought of a possibility, which is not uncommon in the antique world.
