Rebirth 1991: Marrying the beautiful squad leader at the beginning
Chapter 85 Going to the countryside to collect antiques
"Okay, I understand."
Sun Meng expressed his position: "Brother Nian, don't worry, I will definitely not be careless about this matter."
After eating, Yu Nian briefly chatted with Sun Meng and then returned to the small foreign building.
On the balcony, Yu Nian took the antique appreciation book given by Mr. Li and continued to chew hard.
This was the task given to him by Mr. Li, to be able to memorize the words and pictures in the book.
After this period of hard work, Yu Nian has been able to memorize one book, but there are still three more books waiting for Yu Nian. This makes Yu Nian feel dizzy and sincerely admires those antique appraisal experts.
Sure enough, not every craft can be learned casually.
Especially what Mr. Li said, even if he could memorize these antique appreciation books fluently for many years, he might not be able to accurately judge the authenticity of the antiques.
This kind of thing requires a lot of antiques to practice.
"Cough cough..."
While Yu Nian was reading, Mr. Li coughed from behind.
"Mr. Li, are you here?"
Yu Nian stood up and quickly poured Mr. Li a cup of tea.
During this time, Mr. Li and he had meals together, all cooked by Li Fang. They served flowers and plants every day, and their days were considered very leisurely.
"Ah."
Mr. Li took the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and sat down on the wicker chair next to him. "How have you been reading these books recently?"
"It will take at least two months to memorize these books."
Yu Nian smiled helplessly. Anyone who has memorized a book knows that it is easy to forget the front and back, especially with so many books, it is completely impossible to memorize them all in a short time.
"Take it easy."
Mr. Li put the tea cup on the coffee table and said with a smile: "Identifying the authenticity of antiques does not happen overnight. Take me as an example. I have seen a lot of antiques, and there are still times when I am impressed."
"It is."
Yu Nian nodded in agreement, "I mainly want to do some antique business, as long as these books can help me."
"Are you interested in starting an antique business?"
Mr. Li looked surprised. This was the first time he had officially heard that Yu Nian wanted to do antique business.
"Ah."
Yu Nian nodded and said tentatively: "I have thought about it. Nowadays, there are very few people doing antiques. In this way, it will be difficult for anyone to maintain and pass on the antiques handed down in our country. If I can protect the antiques, It can be regarded as a contribution to the ancestors."
This statement was so righteous that even Yu Nian almost believed it.
In fact, what Yu Nian thought in his mind was that making money from antiques, and whether to protect antiques or not, was all bullshit.
However, if antiques can make money, people will naturally protect and inherit them. What Yu Nian said is correct.
Mr. Li has lived for most of his life, so he can't tell what Yu Nian's thoughts are, but he is also happy to be able to deal with antiques.
"To protect and inherit, this is too high-end."
Mr. Li shook his head and said with a smile: "I am just a layman. If I can make money from antiques, then I will be happy. Everything else is nonsense."
"Hey, Mr. Li, if you said this earlier, I wouldn't hold it."
Yu Nian slapped his thigh and took off happily, "Actually, I have the same idea as you, which is to make money..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Nian saw Mr. Li staring at him with a smile on his face. Only then did Yu Nian realize that he was wearing the trap. He coughed twice and corrected: "But being able to dedicate one's strength to these national treasures is the most important thing." Nothing better."
"is it?"
Mr. Li smiled and said, "Didn't you just say you just wanted to make money?"
"Only when you make money can you maintain it and donate it."
Yu Nian bit the bullet, and finally saw Mr. Li staring at him unwillingly. Yu Nian simply showed his cards, "Okay, okay, I admit that I want to make money from antiques. Isn't that right?"
Having said this, Yu Nian lit a cigarette for Mr. Li himself, "Master, do you just say you love money?"
"love money."
Mr. Li smiled and said: "I heard that in the new era, if you have money, you can sing."
"Uh……"
Yu Nian said unexpectedly: "Master, you know so much."
"I just haven't been there."
Mr. Li smiled and said, "Old Li next door told me."
"So, we must make more money."
Yu Nian looked serious and said, "You can only sing if you have money."
Mr. Li's face suddenly turned cold, "I'm testing you, are you serious? Let me tell you, I can't afford to lose this old face. If word gets out and others know that I have a disciple like you, I will beat you to death."
With a righteous look on his face, Yu Nian suddenly felt like a different person, and he felt aggrieved and said, "Isn't this what you always mentioned just now?"
"I can do it, but you can't."
Mr. Li snorted coldly, "Remember, don't call me master, it's still early."
"understood."
Yu Nian quickly changed the topic, "Let's talk about the antique business. Anyway, we have nothing to do. If we have time, let's go collect antiques."
"Collecting antiques?"
Mr. Li was immediately interested, but soon his expression became gloomy, "Now the antique market is sluggish, and there are very few genuine goods. Even if there are any, they have been picked up by others. It is not our turn to pick them up."
"Go to the countryside to collect."
Yu Nian said: "Six out of ten households in the countryside have antiques, but these people don't know the value of the antiques in their hands, and they often sell them as junk."
"Why didn't I think of this?"
Mr. Li's eyes lit up, he patted his thigh and shouted excitedly: "Yes, going to the countryside to collect it is the best way. Maybe you can buy blue and white porcelain for a few dollars."
Looking at Yu Nian, Mr. Li reached out and patted Yu Nian's shoulder and said admiringly: "You have so many clever ideas. No wonder you can afford a small western-style house at such a young age."
"It all depends on your support."
Yu Nian said modestly: "It must be the blessing you always bring me."
"I love hearing that."
Mr. Li knew that Yu Nian's words were a typical flattery, but he just sounded comfortable, "Well, let me go to the countryside first and see what kind of goods I can receive back."
"No problem, I'll get you the money right now."
Yu Nian turned around and went into the house. When he came out again, two thick stacks of banknotes were respectfully placed in Mr. Li's hand, "You can take the [-] yuan and use it first. If you don't have enough, tell me later."
Mr. Li looked at Yu Nian in surprise, "Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"
There are not many people these days who can hand over 2 yuan to others casually.
Besides, the two of them had not known each other for long.
"If you run away, this money will be treated as my filial piety to you."
Yu Nian smiled and said: "It is said that once a teacher is always a father, you are like my old father. I have never treated you as an outsider."
Looking at the money in his hand, Mr. Li was filled with emotion. He turned around and wiped the moist corners of his eyes, "Okay, don't set a trap for me, kid. You just want me to collect antiques for you and make money. Although I am old, , but not stupid.”
"It's okay. If we make money, we'll split it equally. You provide the vision, and I'll provide the money."
Yu Nian smiled and said: "Besides, I am always at your disposal."
"Don't worry, it doesn't cost much to collect antiques in the countryside."
Mr. Li nodded and said, "If you're lucky, you can get a piece of blue and white porcelain for just a few dollars."
This is true. Country people don’t know the importance of antiques. At this time, most people just want to eat.
Sun Meng expressed his position: "Brother Nian, don't worry, I will definitely not be careless about this matter."
