The Charming Life of Rebirth

The copper coin that Xiao Lin took out was extremely worn out.Originally, copper coins are worthless in the eyes of others, let alone copper coins of poor quality, which makes people despise them even more.

Liu Yu immediately sneered and said, "A broken copper coin? Who doesn't have [-] or [-] of these things at home, bring this thing, you little doll doesn't take this party seriously."

Li Yan was also a little surprised, "Linlin, didn't you bring anything else?"

Xiao Lin shook his head, "Uncle Li, Grandpa Huang wanted this copper coin very much, but I was not willing to give it to him."

"Elder Huang also wants it?" Li Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Elder Huang's vision is high enough, and the things he can be optimistic about must be extraordinary.

The eyes of the middle-aged man surnamed Gu lit up, and he walked up to Xiao Lin in a few steps. The more he looked at the copper coins on the table, the wider his eyes became.

"Little friend, can I show my uncle this copper coin?"

Xiao Lin nodded: "Of course." After speaking, he handed over the copper coin.

The man surnamed Gu took the copper coin carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.

Finally, he lost his voice and said: "Da Qi Tong Bao, it turned out to be Da Qi Tong Bao."

"What?" The others stood up one after another.

Even Li Yan came to the side and looked at the copper coin carefully.

"Daqi Tongbao" is the first Southern Tang coin minted by Li Bian, the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty.The reason why it is called "Daqi Tongbao" is that before the emperor of Wu State abdicated to him, he was named the king of Qi.So when he ascended the throne, he named his country "Daqi".Due to the short period of the country's name "Daqi" and the small amount of casting of this coin, it has been handed down to a handful of people, so it is extremely precious and rare.

Liu Yu doesn't understand Daqi Tongbao, what he cares about is the price: "Is this copper coin worth much?"

Zhang Dexin was speechless now, this Young Master Liu recognized him today, and asked him all kinds of questions.

He couldn't afford to offend Liu Yu, so he had to explain patiently: "Young Master Liu, as far as I know, there are only two pieces of Daqi Tongbao in existence. One corner is missing on the upper right, and the coin circles call it "the missing corner Daqi." ", and the other coin has four small holes drilled on it, which is called "Four Eyes Daqi".

"Missing corner Daqi" was collected by Dai Xi, a famous scholar in the south of the Yangtze River in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, some people were willing to buy it at a high price, and he couldn't bear to part with it.When the Taiping army invaded Hangzhou, Dai Xi committed suicide by throwing himself into the water, and buried Daqi Tongbao and other things deep in the ground before his death.In order to obtain this rare and genuine product, later generations rushed to buy Dai's house and dug the ground several times, but finally found nothing.

"Four-eyed Daqi" was discovered by Quan scholars Dai Baoting and Zhu Kezhuang in the 20s on the shuttlecocks kicked by children in rural Poyang, Jiangxi.Although this Daqi Tongbao has no missing corners, four small holes were drilled because it was made of a shuttlecock.Later, it was purchased by the famous collector Zhang Shuxun with a lot of money. It was hidden in a secret room and never shown to others.

Daqi Tongbao is very precious and is one of the "Fifty Treasures" of ancient Chinese coins.

Today's Big Qi Tongbao, although dilapidated, has no missing corners or drilled holes, so it is priceless! "

Liu Yu's nose was almost crooked when he heard this. Why did Li Yan take out a precious Yuan Qinghua, and the child he brought took out a valuable copper coin, trying to make them lose face, but let them show off.

Liu Yu was really unwilling to think about it.

However, Liu Yu also knew that he was a novice in antiques, and if he continued to provoke him, he would be humiliating himself.Let's save face in other ways later.

"Da Qi Tong Bao, I didn't expect it to be Da Qi Tong Bao. I thought there were only two left in the world today, but I didn't expect to see it here again. It was a worthwhile trip!" Mr. Gu's words were full of emotion.

Li Yan was also full of surprise, he didn't expect that the things Xiao Lin took out would be so incredible.

"Little friend, I wonder if you would like to sell this copper coin to your uncle? Uncle can give you 100 million." As soon as Mr. Gu's voice fell, the people around started talking.

Every time they gather, some people will be optimistic about other people's antiques and trade them, but no one expects that Mr. Gu will bid for this copper coin, and it is still a sky-high price of 100 million.

In this day and age, tens of thousands of dollars is considered a lot, and a copper coin is worth millions, which is unbelievable.

Xiao Lin was taken aback for a moment, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Uncle Gu, I like this copper coin very much, and I'm not even willing to give it to my master, let alone sell it."

"Is it really not possible? Uncle can give you 100 million, which is a lot of money." Mr. Gu persuaded again.

He saw that Xiao Lin was young, and worried that Xiao Lin didn't understand how much 100 million was.

Xiao Lin said helplessly: "Uncle Gu, I'm not short of money. I won't sell this Daqi Tongbao."

"That's really a pity. If Uncle Gu wants to collect all the fifty treasures of copper coins, this Daqi Tongbao is an indispensable existence. Alas! If you don't want to, forget it. But if you want to sell it someday, remember Tell your Uncle Li Yan, he will lead you to find me."

Li Yan nodded to Mr. Gu, and promised that if Xiao Lin wanted to sell copper coins, he would take him to find Mr. Gu.

Coming out of the restaurant, Xiao Lin asked in confusion: "Uncle Li, why do you respect this Uncle Gu so much?"

Li Yan smiled and explained: "Your Uncle Gu is not an ordinary person. He is now the executive deputy governor of a province. He just turned 40 this year, and his future is absolutely limitless. In our circle, we are very particular Not just family background, but also personal ability."

Xiao Lin was stunned, he was already a provincial official at such a young age, this Uncle Gu really has the possibility of aspiring to the top.

It's a pity that I didn't pay much attention to politics in my previous life. Except for the few people at the top, no one else paid attention to it.At this time, I can't help but feel a little regretful.

With the money he earned from real estate in Hainan as a guarantee, Xiao Lin began to renovate his courtyard.

Xiao Lin usually doesn't have high requirements for food and clothing, but he has extremely high requirements for housing, especially the residence where he may live for the rest of his life in the future.

Although he had some money in his previous life, he definitely couldn't afford to buy a courtyard house in the capital. In this life, he managed to buy it, and he would be sorry for the money he spent if he didn't decorate it properly.

Now the prices are cheap, and the decoration materials are not expensive. As long as the design is reasonable, he can definitely decorate a good house that will last ten years.

For the gate of the quadrangle, Xiao Lin decided to use the ancient red gate, but a security room had to be built inside the gate. Otherwise, if you live in the last courtyard, you have to come to the front to open the gate, which would be really depressing.

The front yard is a small quadrangle, with the main house and east and west wing rooms all complete.A hanging flower door in the corner leads directly to the middle courtyard.

The area of ​​the central courtyard is large. In addition to the house, there are gardens and rockeries. If running water can be introduced here and a lotus pond can be built here, it must be very beautiful.

The backyard has a larger area, with a study room and a living room.It's a pity that it has been left unattended for a long time, and it looks a bit dilapidated.

There is also a back garden at the back, the yard area is larger, and the corridor is complete with pavilions and pavilions.

Overall, this courtyard house is worth buying.It's just that the house has been built for too long, and it is not impossible to leak rain in rainy days.If you want to retain the exquisiteness of the past and add modern conveniences, you still need to use your brains.
