The courtyard of the man's house is an old courtyard with a sense of age, and the house is also very grand. To have such a courtyard, it seems that the ancestors are not ordinary people.

As soon as he followed the man into the room, Ding Mao saw two pairs of blue and white general jars and flower cups with the word "Xi" on the table, which were painted with extremely fine workmanship and the glaze was extremely pure.

"Uncle, I will also accept these pieces of porcelain!"

"How much is it worth? Let's wait until it's over. Let's look at other things first!"

Ding Mao didn't have any objections. He first took a look at what this person wanted to sell, and naturally he wouldn't let go of other things that he could accept.

Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of an old calendar with writings written by coins on it. Although he did not take it, Ding Mao could see clearly that the content on it was the man's formula for calculating the price of silver.

It seems that after the man inquired about the price, he came back and made sure he weighed it and got the result. He found that the price of the silver dollar given by Ding Mao was much higher than the price of the silver itself, so he considered selling it!

However, what the man took out was not silver dollars, but two old gold bars worth ten taels from the Republic of China.

The family that can have such a thing is not ordinary!

This thing was called a big yellow croaker during the Republic of China. One side has the words Tianjin Baoheng, Jialian, and Jinliang, and the other side has the words Chengji, Shiliang, and there are beautiful water ripples on the surface.

"Look, what price can I get for this thing?"

Ding Mao took it and found that it was a generous portion. It seemed that it was not forged. He felt relieved and at the same time looked forward to it even more.

We weighed each one. One weighed 312.2 grams and the other weighed 312.5 grams. They were standard twelve gold bars.

"Uncle, I guess you also know that the current price of gold is only about 70 yuan, and the recycling price in general stores is only about 60 yuan!"

"I know, and I don't care what their price is. Don't you say that the price you offer is high? Just say what price you can offer!"

Seeing the man's anxious look, Ding Mao smiled faintly and said: "We usually collect this kind by the root, 24500 per stick, the synthetic price per gram is about 80 per gram, which is higher than the selling price and charging price in the store. All higher.”

"Oh, it's more expensive than them, so why can you charge a higher price than the one in the store?"

This man is still very shrewd and sees the crux of the problem, but Ding Mao has already thought of his words.

"We collect this thing for people to open a historical exhibition hall. They don't rely on this to make a profit, they rely on the admission fee!"

Ding Mao deliberately emphasized the word "personal" in order to remind him that not everyone can have this path!

The man nodded thoughtfully: "Then the price is a bit low, isn't it? Two large yellow croakers are less than [-] yuan?"

"The market price of this thing is so transparent. We have the price in the store as a reference. No one is taking advantage of it. It would be great to be able to add some prices on top of theirs!"

"We don't understand anyway. Who knows how much money you make? If the price is not right, I will sell it to them to build an exhibition hall!"

"Uncle, I told you that the exhibition hall was built by a person. It is generally difficult to find this way if you don't know someone. Even if you find a way, you may not be able to give such a high price if you don't know it. Even if it is based on the certified price, Isn’t it just three to five hundred more, which may not be enough to cover the cost! We are relatives who build the exhibition hall, so we dare to give such a price, and we can earn hard money!"

After hearing this, the man was obviously hesitant. As Ding Mao said, where could they find such a way, let alone others.

After thinking about it, the man still said: "I'll sell it to you, I think I'll give you [-] yuan for two!"

Ding Mao pretended to be in trouble and said: "Uncle, if you want to sell me a lot of things, go back and forth. It makes sense to bring them to you if they don't make any money, but if it's just these two, then I'll give you the price." There’s really no way to add more!”

"Young man, as long as the price is right, there will definitely be something available. Do you think this is worth 50 a piece?"

As the man spoke, he took out more than twenty silver dollars from his pocket and handed them to Ding Mao. It looked like they were the ones used for weighing just now.

Ding Mao still said in embarrassment: "This little price is not enough to increase the price for you!"

"Are you anxious? First check to see if it's what you said!"

Ding Mao nodded quickly: "That's it!"

"Yes, that's fine. Just wait here and I'll get it for you. Then you'll know how many there are!"

The man said that he did not forget to return the gold bars and silver coins in Ding Mao's hands. It seemed that Ding Mao had secretly taken them away!

Not long after, the man brought over a box. It was a black lacquered box with gold clouds and dragon patterns. It was about 40cm long, 25cm wide and 25cm high. It had copper ring handles on both sides and had new locks on it.

"Wait a minute, there's another box left!"

After putting this down, the man walked out again. It seemed that he was hiding more secretly and refused to let Ding Mao help no matter what.

Seeing that he is so cautious, but he can also bring Ding Mao to see the goods, it is estimated that the location of the things should be very secret.

It can be seen that his ancestors must have hidden these things for fear of being divided up their property, and only their descendants knew the location.

In the past, there were a lot of things like this. Because the landlords divided their fields, many rich people hid and hid a lot of their belongings!

The second box was exactly the same as the first one. The man moved all of them over and then opened one of them.

"These two are all filled with silver. Isn't it enough to increase the price for those two large yellow croakers?"

Ding Mao did not answer, but was surprised that all the silver coins in the box were wrapped in red paper, with large and small envelopes, all arranged neatly!

Judging from the length of the large and small envelopes, Ding Mao can probably guess that each large envelope is worth 100 silver dollars, and each small envelope is worth 50 silver dollars!

"I have opened the red paper. There are 50 pieces in the small one and 100 pieces in the big one. One box contains exactly 3000 pieces. This box is a little short. I checked before and it was 2400 pieces. You can check again. !”

Speaking of men, open another box as well.

Naturally, Ding Mao had to check the quantity and open each envelope to read it. After just one glance, he immediately sealed it again.

After reading two envelopes, Ding Mao knew that these were sealed by the older generation for the convenience of storage, because most of them contained circulating coins.

In the first box, there are 4 large envelopes and 4 small envelopes on each layer. One layer is exactly 600 yuan, and there are five layers neatly placed in total. The second box is filled with exactly [-] envelopes. layer.

"I still have 63 scattered silver coins on my hand. If there are no problems, how much can we calculate?"

"Okay, can you take out those dozens of dollars as well?"

When the man heard this, he took out a small cloth bag from a drawer. After pouring out the contents, Ding Mao discovered that in addition to the silver coins, there was also a pocket watch.

This man was very shrewd, so Ding Mao could only remain calm for the time being, pretending not to even look at the pocket watch.

"According to what you said, these two gold bars are worth 323150 yuan, plus silver dollars, the total price is [-] yuan!"

The man did the math again and found that the number was exactly right. He immediately smiled. More than 30 yuan was definitely not a small amount in this era.

"Can you take out this much money now?"

"Don't worry about the money. Since I can collect it, the money will definitely be enough. Please wait a moment. I'll call my father and ask him to come over!"

As he spoke, Ding Mao took out his phone and called his father.

"Don't you want these jars too? Let's see if we can get them together."

Ding Mao had just hung up the phone. When the man saw that it was not a joke, but that he really heard it, and was sure that he wanted to send money, he felt a little excited, so he tentatively wanted to return these pieces of porcelain. Sold at a high price.

"Uncle, this can't be put together, it's too big! If you don't believe it, you can ask the people in your village. We only charge a few dozen to three or four hundred for a pair of these things!"

The man was obviously a little disappointed and murmured: "It's so cheap!"

If there hadn't been this amount of more than 30 before, the man might not necessarily think this way.

"This thing is the dowry bottle in the past. The older generation basically has it in every household. If it were more expensive, wouldn't everyone get rich?"

Ding Mao explained with a smile.

The man was still a little unwilling, and asked again: "Then look at how much I can pay for this pocket watch. This is gold, so it can't be cheaper, right?"

"Uncle, this watch is made of karat gold, which is different from pure gold. It's not as valuable as you think. Besides, I don't know much about it. If it doesn't work, just keep it for now!"

"Look, you've come all the way. Isn't it gold for him? It's not easy to settle accounts even if there's even a small change. You can just keep it all!"

Ding Mao deliberately acted embarrassed. He was silent for a while and said, "It's okay to bring them together, but with these pieces of porcelain, I think I can give you 1850 at most, which makes the total 325000."

The man was not satisfied when he heard this, so he said: "Those two pieces of gold are worth so much, this one is too cheap!"

Seeing this, Ding Mao quickly said: "If you ask me, if this pocket watch doesn't work, don't sell it. It's not that I won't give you a price. If you compare it, you can see that the two kinds of gold are not the same, and this one is just a watch cover. It might be gold, but it doesn’t weigh many grams!”

At this time, Ding Xian also arrived and put the 33 cash prepared in advance in his backpack.

Each bundle of one hundred thousand is new and unopened, so it is easy to check. After handing over the twenty thousand, the remaining ten thousand Dingmao was directly put into the pocket and taken out from it in order to count each one. Three small dozen dollars at a thousand discount.

When I saw that he really only planned to take another 150, he really had no intention of accepting this pocket watch and porcelain.

The man quickly said: "I've sold you my watch and cans, and you're checking for two thousand!"

Ding Mao's hand that pulled out the money paused, and his face looked a little tangled.

"The words have been said, so let's take them with us!"
