Rebirth: I am a first-line antique dealer

During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, glass paintings were popular all over the country, and almost every household had one.

However, it is still a perfect work, and it is rare to see a good painter. This glass painting can be called a rare masterpiece, both in terms of the painter's reputation and the painting itself!

Just as Lao Fangtou came over with the banknotes, Ding Mao asked, "Uncle, do you want to sell this glass painting?"

Old Fangtou was a little surprised and asked, "You want this thing too?"

The corners of Ding Mao's mouth turned up and he said, "This painting is quite beautiful, I want it!"

Old Fangtou sighed and said, "You think it looks good, but my squeamish daughter-in-law is so scared when she looks at this painting. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have fallen!" "

Ding Mao was slightly shocked. If this thing was dropped, it would be too violent!

So he said: "If you drop this, it will be really useless. The painting is very beautiful!"

Old Fangtou shook his head helplessly: "If you can accept it, I'll sell it to you. Let's see how much I can give you."

Ding Mao pondered for a moment, then said: "Uncle, I don't know much about this thing, but I think it might be sold for thirty or fifty, and maybe it can be sold for one hundred and eighty. Take a look and give you 30 Is it okay for [-] yuan? Anyway, at this price, I can probably break even my capital, and I might be able to make some money off of you!"

Old Fangtou didn't hesitate much and said, "Okay, you look at the money first, and I'll take off the mirror for you later!"

Ding Mao nodded, took the note, and said, "I'll pick it off myself later. This mirror is quite heavy. Don't touch it when you're old!"

Old Fangtou naturally had no objection, so he nodded in agreement, and then he and Ding Mao started studying the banknotes!

The banknotes were placed in an old-fashioned lunch box, and in addition to the banknotes, there were also some large coins and other small items!

Ding Mao took out one of them one by one. An old silver ring was worthless, and a small jade cigarette holder was also worthless. It could even be taken or not, and an old watch was of little use either.

Among the big money, only one Xianfeng Dangshi and one Shunzhi are not bad, but there is nothing else good.

However, a set of silver pendants is pretty good. The banknotes include three Unity notes, 14 Steelmaking notes, 5 Turner notes, and 21 Tractor notes, and the condition is pretty good.

The dimes and cents were neither valuable nor in good condition, so they were picked out by Ding Mao!

"Uncle, this one is 15 yuan, this one is 20 yuan, this one is 50 yuan, this one is 2 yuan. I will give you 10 yuan for this big money, 5 yuan for this one, and the others are only 5 cents each. This set of silver jewelry can give you 100 yuan, can you check the price?"

Old Fangtou did not answer directly, but picked up a piece of lathe and asked: "Why is this one more expensive than these two?"

Ding Mao replied with a smile: "It's not about which one has the larger face value, but it depends on the circulation at that time. This two-dollar one is less than the others, so it's more expensive!"

"Oh"

Old Fangtou nodded suddenly and said, "I can sell it to you, but don't you want these?"

What he was referring to was watches, silver rings, cigarette holders, dimes, and cents!

Ding Mao said with a smile: "Normally, we don't charge it, but we'll do the math later. If there are any oddities, let's round them up!"

Hearing this, Old Fangtou also smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then let's calculate the price!"

After calculating it one by one, the total price is 642.5 yuan, which is really a fraction.

"Uncle, it's useless for me to take these back, but since there is a change, I will take these together and give you a total of 650 yuan. Do you think it's okay?"

Old Fangtou grinned: "You can give 660, is it a good deal?"

Ding Mao nodded happily and agreed.

"Okay, I'll give you 660, lucky!"

As he said that, he took out the money, checked it and handed it to the old man.

And Old Fangtou not only gave Ding Mao a lunch box, but to his surprise, the old man also gave Ding Mao a silver ring, watch and cigarette holder that he had not planned to get!

When he came back, he found that there were not many things on the advertising cloth, but he still gained something, and he was quite satisfied.

This village is not big, and many people are not at home, so it is good that they don't have their heads shaved.

Someone saw him holding a glass painting in his hand and asked, "Would you like to accept this too?"

Ding Mao nodded with a smile and said, "Look at the things that are well preserved and well painted. I can ask for them!"

"I have a painting at home that is more beautiful than this one, and it even comes with a base!"

The man just glanced at the glass painting in Ding Mao's hand and said confidently.

When Ding Mao heard this, his interest was immediately aroused and he said, "Are you selling it? If so, let's go and take a look?"

This person was very direct: "Then let's go and come with me to have a look!"

After Ding Mao put down his things, he followed him!

When he arrived at the old man's house, Ding Mao also saw the glass painting the old man mentioned on the cabinet!

To be precise, this is an interstitial, and the glass painting is the theme of the character story of Wuzi Nao School.

The content of the painting is rich, the painting work is extremely delicate and realistic, and the sense of space and the expression of the characters are excellent. It is really no worse than the Jinmenglou work he collected!

Moreover, the wooden seat is engraved with the Eight Immortals, chess, calligraphy and painting, clouds, bats, grapes, back patterns, wishful patterns, etc. It is both grand and exquisite. The most important thing is that the whole product has no flaws at all!

There are also a pair of 300 pieces of large pastel vases on both sides of the insert screen. They are big shots, full colors, and high scores. The theme is nine sons winning the championship. Unfortunately, one of them is broken and covered with curiums!

The painting on this pair of bottles is also excellent, and judging from its style, it should be from the mid-Qing Dynasty!

"Sir, do you sell these bottles?"

After hearing Ding Mao's inquiry, the old man said: "I can sell it at a higher price, but one of them is broken!"

Since it can be discussed, Ding Mao needs to be carefully inspected to see if there are any problems with the seemingly complete one that cannot be seen by the naked eye!

So while he was inspecting it, he said, "It's indeed a pity. How much do you want to sell it for?"

The old man hesitated after hearing this and asked, "How much did you charge for the mirror just now?"

Ding Mao knew that he wanted to make a price comparison, so he said without any concealment: "It cost 30 yuan!"

When he heard the price, a look of disappointment immediately appeared on the old man's face, but he still asked again: "Then my one is better than his, can it be more expensive?"

Ding Mao also saw the change in the old man's demeanor and said quickly: "Of course, you still have a wooden seat after all!"

After getting the answer he wanted, the old man nodded and said: "Besides these two, I have something else I want to sell. I'll find it for you. You can see if you can take it. Let's talk about the price!"
