As the saying goes, 'gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times', a group of Chinese people who have become wealthy have also begun to collect all kinds of antiques. Gold and silver, precious metals, have undoubtedly always been highly sought after by collectors.

Through Chen Chong's small-scale publicity, the silver ingot, which was identified as the Zhu Dynasty, also quickly attracted the attention of some wealthy people. Just as Zhuang Haiyang expected, this silver ingot was soon being bid one after another.

When Zhuang Haiyang received a call from Chen Chong, informing him that someone was willing to pay a high price of 680,000 yuan, Zhuang Haiyang said without saying a word: "Okay! You're in charge of collecting the money, just call me the whole number!"

"Kao, are you sure?I'm embarrassed to ask for such an expensive fee!"

"If you don't want it, it's okay to transfer all the money to me. Except for one thing, don't tell anyone that I'm a seller. Also, if anyone is willing to collect this kind of silver ingot, 600,000 pieces, I can provide a few more. ”

Chen Chong, who was far away in the town, heard this, his eyes instantly widened and he whispered: "Tell me honestly, where did you get it?"

After thinking about it for a while, Zhuang Haiyang said: "If someone asks, I will definitely say that it is a family heirloom." If you ask, then I can tell you, but if the news leaks, you kid knows the consequences. Think about it, what am I doing?"

"What are you doing? Fisherman?"

Originally, I wanted to say that Zhuang Haiyang was similar to an unemployed vagrant, but thinking about Zhuang Haiyang's main business, it should still be fishing. After Chen Zhong finished speaking, Zhuang Haiyang said again: "Then what do you think, how about my diving ability?"

"Not bad! Wait, you mean?"

"Be smart! See through it, don't say it! This errand is done, and I will eat meat in the future, and I will drink some soup with you." You know, there are some things that get out and no one knows what kind of trouble will get into. So, more is better than less, you say?"

Chen Chong, who lives in Haichen Town all year round, has also heard that from time to time, fishermen occasionally pick up some broken porcelain pieces and other things from the sea when they go out to sea. There are also some people who are privately engaged in the salvage of shipwrecks, but most of them are very low-key.

It's just that everyone knows that this kind of money is easy to make, but the question is whether they have the ability to do it? The sea is big, and who knows that there are shipwrecks in that place?

Even if a wreck is found, whether it can be salvaged or not, and whether there is anything valuable on it, these are all unknowns. Salvaging a sunken ship, many times it is also a gamble, if you lose the bet, you will also lose money!

Seeing that Zhuang Haiyang didn't deny it, Chen Chong said excitedly: "In addition to these, there should be other things, right?"

"Of course! It took a lot of effort to get the stuff out of it. However, what is really valuable is the silver ingots that you can sell them. Others of value are a batch of ceramics, and the number is not very large. ”

"Kao, you kid just stepped on shit! And this luck! No matter how worthless it is, it's also the porcelain of the Zhu Dynasty!"

"Okay! One more word of warning to you, boy, keep a tight tone for me, if it really makes a big fuss, no one will have good fruit to eat. If you're obedient, I'll give you a set of cutlery next time you're in town, so you kid can show off as well. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Chong instantly opened his eyebrows and smiled: "This is what you said, I didn't blackmail you! As for the cutlery, just pick out a good set for me when the time comes. ”

"Get out! You're throwing sesame seeds and hugging watermelons! Just help me get my errand done, it's done, next time Lao Tzu will get you more good goods." Even if it's a good thing like one abalone and two abalones, it's not a problem. You know?"

"No problem! You're the big guy, and the little one must be served. ”

After ending the call, Zhuang Haiyang also believed that Chen Zhong would not sell him. After all, the collecting circle itself is very low-key, and those who have the money to collect antiques will not show off it casually, and most of them will show off with their friends in private.

In addition, he has been friends with Chen Zhong for many years, Zhuang Haiyang knows that the dead fat man who looks big on the surface still has a very tight mouth!

Thinking that the amount of porcelain salvaged from the wreck was a bit large, Zhuang Haiyang finally packed three large boxes and planned to move them back to the town and put them in his simple house, where many of his old belongings were also stored.

All the porcelain that was moved back to the town for storage, after being soaked in Dinghai pearl water, can no longer see the characteristics of Hailao porcelain. On Nanshan Island, Zhuang Haiyang also left a lot, and even used the precious porcelain vase as a vase.

When tourists come to the island in the future, there will definitely be people who will see the difference in these porcelain. When the time comes, Zhuang Haiyang will be able to find an excuse, saying that these porcelains are the relics of his parents, old objects left by the previous move.

As long as there is no definite evidence, who would dare to say that these porcelains were fished from the sea, and even if they were fished from the sea, it was decades ago. It's really not good, if you push it to your grandfather's generation, then you will sit on the family heirloom antiques.

In the final analysis, the water soaked in Dinghaizhu seems to have the effect of decontamination. As long as the cleaned porcelain is soaked in pearl water for a period of time, the traces left by the shellfish and algae will quickly melt and disappear.

In this way, the porcelain looks brand new. It has been used as ordinary porcelain for a period of time, and who dares to say that these porcelains were just fished out of the sea by Zhuang Haiyang? There are many similar things in seaside fishing villages.

At least Zhuang Haiyang had heard that in the early years, someone salvaged a shipwreck containing ceramics in the offshore waters. The bowls and saucers were divided or sold by the fishermen. Of course, most of these dishes and dishes were bought at home.

Back then, who knew it was worth a lot?

After Chen Chong's operation, Zhuang Haiyang sold seven more silver ingots, each with a price of more than 600,000 yuan. Zhuang Haiyang, who instantly received five million, also generously gave Chen Chong six bowls and six plates, which made him laugh and fight with the two fools.

Just seeing those dense dishes in the box, Chen Chong also bared his teeth and said, "Do you plan to sell this thing too?"

"Don't sell it, can you put it here to see? It's just that you can also see that these dishes are more repetitive, and if you sell them in large quantities, you probably won't be able to sell them for a high price." You work hard, and then help recruit some buyers.

If you have time, you can send me your dishes, and find someone who knows the goods to identify them first. If someone is willing to make a bid, then you sell. The old rule, as much as you sell, I will make up for you when the time comes. The benefits must be yours. ”

"Kao, I'm in the seafood business, not the antique business!"

"Doing a seafood business is about making money, and doing an antiques business is also about making money. For the transaction of silver ingots, you kid don't need intermediary fees, and the commission for selling antiques will give you a 20% commission. If the business is good, it will be more profitable than if you are a young owner, right?

The most important thing is that although this fishing restaurant is yours sooner or later, the restaurant business is still managed by your old man. You're a young owner, I'm afraid you don't have enough money, right? Twenty percent of the pump, work hard, millionaire is not a dream!"

In the face of Zhuang Haiyang's agitation, Chen Chong also said with a frightened face: "Are you the devil? Okay! I'll help you test the water first, there are really few people who like to collect antique porcelain these days." It's a pity that most of your porcelain is a folk kiln!"

"It doesn't matter what kiln it is, as long as it's genuine. Isn't it?"

"That's right, then I'll help you get in touch! I also want to buy a car, and I want to go to the city to have a good time!"

Listening to Chen Chong's roar, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and didn't speak. He knew that even if Chen Chong had money in his pocket, if he really dared to spend time drinking, his father would definitely let him know what it meant to be a filial son under the stick.
