Reboot 1991

Chapter 49 Collection

Wei Zhuo is busy here, the brothers let him rest for a while, but he can't stay idle.

As soon as the food stall opened, the business of the nearby restaurants was so bad that they had to make some promotions to maintain customers, but their business was getting better and better. Many regular customers suggested that they move to the store to continue this business.

The ostentation of having a storefront is definitely different from what it is now, but Wei Zhuo refused.The food stalls for outdoor barbecues are the soul. Everyone can eat their favorite skewers after a few minutes. This is what a city night should look like.What's the point of moving into the store? It's a huge loss not to hear the neighbors wearing big pants and holding cattail fans talking about the mountains.When I told this to my younger brothers, they also felt that the storefront was too formal, not as lively and fulfilling as the night market.

Wei Zhuo was tired after working for a while, so he just sat on the sidelines.Several regular customers greeted him to come over for a drink and chat.

"Hey, have you heard?" The diners are also gossips, and it will be uncomfortable if they don't share the latest news with others.

"what's up?"

"Yesterday, an old man at the night market here sold a broken bowl, which he said was from the Xuantong period. Guess how much it sold for?" the diner said mysteriously.

"I can't guess!" Wei Zhuo picked up a fried peanut.It's quite fragrant.This is a new stall nearby. It sells some cooked food, such as fried peanuts and small yellow croakers. Because they rely on their stall, many customers around drink wine, and the peanuts are sold very quickly. If you come late, you can’t buy it. Wei Wei Zhuo ate their food, and said to his younger brother, "I will keep the list on this table!"

The younger brother readily agreed.The diner hurriedly said: "Hey, what are you doing, you are too polite, you can't do this next time!"

"It should be, you always eat here." Wei Zhuo said.

The diners are still very happy that the order is exempted. Wei Zhuo’s business will definitely start. Every time he catches up with him, regular customers will have free side dishes, such as cucumbers. Come back next time.

"I went to the barbecue stall next door to eat it yesterday. The taste is far worse than that of yours. They also know that the taste is not good, so they want to deal with those vain discounts, such as eating ten skewers and getting one free. Skewers. People who really eat skewers are not bad at all, don’t you think?” The diners chatted with each other.After thinking about it, I added another sentence: "I didn't want to go last time either, because my friends were holding me back, and you have no place here, or I would suggest coming to your house!"

Seeing that he was about to start a long chat, Wei Zhuo hurriedly said, "Hey, just now you said how much the old man sold for a bowl?"

"5000 yuan. Hey, what do rich people think? 5000 yuan is enough to buy such a broken bowl. It's enough to buy a flat!"

"Let's collect it!" Wei Zhuo said, "That old man dares to ask for a price, I'll take a look." When he was a boss in his previous life, he followed suit for a while, and if he really wanted to talk about appreciation and investment, he had to talk about this artwork.Go up hundreds of times.Now in the 90s, there are a little more genuine products on the market. After another ten years, when this industry becomes popular, there will be more fake products.Even those who often play collection will punch eyes!

Wei Zhuo put down his chopsticks and strolled past. In the current night market, both sides are filled with food and clothes sellers.There are also pirated tapes playing Cantonese songs that everyone can't understand at the highest volume, which is very lively.

I heard that going to the sea is hot now, and many people from electronics factories have resigned and come to set up stalls, saying that they can earn more in one day than half a month.

There are many people in every stall, except for the old man who sells antiques, there are no people in front of the stall, and there is no lamp installed.Just put a dim flashlight, and the old man sat there like an old monk in meditation, not in a hurry!

Wei Zhuo came over to take a look. He had more ancient coins and Yuan Datou.Play it and then blow it again, there will be a buzzing sound.Wei Zhuo also played a bit.

Then there's the porcelain, but it's either chipped or cracked, and a few of them are fine.However, Wei Zhuo took a fancy to a dusty and inconspicuous jade, which looked like a fish, but it was actually a complete pair.

"what is this?"

"Have you heard of Hongshan Jade Wares? They are very valuable." The old man didn't start selling them until the customers asked about them.

"Make it rough!"

"This is all thousands of years ago, can it be compared with now?"

Wei Zhuo asked, "How much?"

"Twelve thousand." He opened his mouth and said the sky-high price.

Wei Zhuo has just escaped poverty, and the barbecue stall does make money, but it is limited, and it employs so many people.The money earned in more than a month made everyone smile, and it was only more than 3000 in Wei Zhuo's hands.Including Lin Xi's more than 3000, the total is only [-]!

Antiques are indeed not something the poor can afford!

But this pair of fish must be real, he had seen it in the museum in his last life, and the museum paid for it.At that time, there were several million banknotes counted, and if they were not sold to the museum, they would definitely be able to turn them over later.

Wei Zhuo saw that he was so miscellaneous that he had everything.They are all from different dynasties.Said: "Where did you get this?"

The old man said: "This is all my own stuff!"

"My stuff is so complicated? What did your house do before?" Wei Zhuo didn't believe it.

Who knew that his question was right on point, the old man said proudly: "My family used to run a pawn shop. During the period of the Republic of China, a lot of good things were collected, and the situation was turbulent. My grandfather took these things Nine shares were divided and buried. It’s a pity that a lot was lost later, but our ancestors have accumulated, and we juniors can live comfortably!” He was in good time, his father married a country woman at that time, and her mother The upper eight generations of poor peasants have a good composition.He didn't suffer much either.

"So you still have good things at home?" Wei Zhuo frowned.In troubled times, these collectibles were worthless. According to what he said, a few boxes of things handed down by ancestors would be enough to last for several lifetimes.

Hearing what Wei Zhuo said, the old man smiled rather proudly.Said: "Then it depends on how much money you have?" The tone was arrogant, he had things, but he had to exchange them for money.

It was fate that Wei Zhuo saw this pair of fishes today and said, "This one, I'll take it if it's cheaper!"

"It's not cheap. I can guarantee that the things you buy at the stall will not be fake. This Hongshan jade is gone long ago. It's not easy for you to see it. It's just a matter of missing a glance." The old man also said Will do business.There has been a family motto since ancient times, do not open for three years, and eat for three years after opening, there is no rush for this thing.

Wei Zhuo said: "3000 yuan, I'll buy it!" The jade pendants of the two fish look like they belonged to a couple, half of each person, and they fit together to form a circle. Although the craftsmanship is simple, the lines are beautiful, and they are cute after seeing too much of.

The old man said: "You didn't bargain like this. Three thousand is definitely not enough." His eyelids moved when he spoke.

Wei Zhuo thought clearly and said: "Anyway, you have a lot of treasures, so you can save it. Three thousand is a lot. Besides, I was just on a whim. I don't know antiques and I don't know if three thousand is too expensive." , It’s still a bit too impulsive to say the price. But I won’t say anything regretful. Anyway, it’s up to you today, if you sell it, I’ll take it, if you don’t sell it, I’ll get it.”

The old man thought for a while, and of course he was willing to sell it to him!As Wei Zhuo said, his family has a lot of collections.This jade is considered an inconspicuous item, it is placed on the cloth without even a box.But I was afraid that agreeing to him too quickly would upset the buyer.This antique transaction meets a stranger and has to be sold at a stretch. If this is agreed to, others will definitely not buy it.After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Can you buy it today?"

"Tomorrow, if you are interested, you can come to me with this jade pendant! I will be working as a food stall over there, and I will know after a little inquiring. I have to scrape together the 3000 yuan!"

The old man said: "It turned out to be the owner of the food stall. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm sure you can rest assured. Okay, if I sell this thing to you, I will treat it as a friend of yours! If someone else bought it for three thousand, I will definitely not be able to buy it." Shan, the old man was also happy in his heart. The treasures that his grandfather secretly confessed before his death were really extraordinary. They were sold for 5000 yuan yesterday, and another [-] yuan came into the account today.Rounding up, it’s almost [-] yuan. If you don’t steal or grab it, you can get money faster than anyone else.

Wei Zhuo sat down and chatted with him: "Nowadays I don't dare to buy antiques, maybe I'll buy fakes anytime soon!"

"That's not true. This counterfeit technology has existed before, and the imitation is not bad. But don't worry, what you buy from me is definitely the real thing." The old man said with a vow.

"Your ancestral eyes can't be wrong! Hey, with your craftsmanship, why don't you go to the countryside to collect it. When it was broken and old, it was destroyed a lot, but who doesn't hide some good things! When the time comes, the price will be low. Sell ​​it at a high price, and continue to do business in the past." Wei Zhuo chatted.

The old man's eyes lit up when he heard this: "It's really a hero who sees the same thing, that's what I think. Get more money. Otherwise, I won't sell it for 3000 yuan." The more Wei Zhuoyue looked at it, he felt that it was not ordinary: "Brothers also like to collect?"

"Who doesn't like good things, but there is no money!"

The old man smiled and said: "Hey, you are now a layman. To collect this thing, there are rich and rich ways to play. If there is no money, there is no way to play! Today I hit it off with you, and I will secretly reveal a news to you. There is a painting by Mi Youren in the Song Dynasty. If you say it is true, it is true, and if you say it is false, it is also false!"

"Oh, how do you say it?"

"This painting was drawn on rice paper. After the painting was finished, the master of the watch frame made some manipulations and divided the painting paper into four layers. Each layer is a painting, and mine is the third layer. This has to be taken out for identification. Even experts can’t tell. The paintings of the Northern Song Dynasty are more than 1000 years old, can you accept them? I sold them to you for 2000 yuan.” Compared with these delicate paintings and calligraphy, he prefers porcelain, jade and bronze wares. It's okay to collect some jewelry and embroidery, as the calligraphy and painting are moldy when they are opened.A lot of places started to lose color, and if it was left for a few more years, it would be shattered into slag. It was a good thing, but he didn't want to care about it anymore, and was in a hurry to get rid of it.
