Chapter 181: Antique Market
The eldest sister who was selling pancakes saw Wu Chengfeng walking away, sneered, and said contemptuously: "I really think that your two fans were painted by Tang Bohu, and they were sold in the collection market!
Xiuqin heard the eldest sister of the pancake stall mocking Wu Chengfeng, and said dissatisfiedly: "How do you know that these two fans are not worth anything? Maybe they are really valuable!"
In fact, in Xiuqin's heart, she didn't think that these two fans could be sold for money, otherwise, she wouldn't have accepted them easily.
"If it's really valuable, he won't even be able to afford to eat a pancake?" replied the pancake woman.
"This ......" Xiuqin stammered a little.
"Eldest sister, if you don't believe me, have you seen the front? Around the corner is an antique market, where my cousin is buying and selling antiques, you can go over with me and let him have an appraisal!"
"Why should I go with you?" said Xiuqin with a weak heart.
Xiuqin was worried that she would go to the antique market, and she firmly came out that these two fans were worthless, and she would not look good at that time.
"Xiuqin, let's go over and ask! I see that young man's face is sincere, not like he is telling a lie!" Lao Luo interjected.
"Old Luo ......" Xiuqin looked reluctant.
"Then let's go!" After the woman who was selling the pancakes finished speaking, she quickly put away the pancake stall, she wiped her hands on the towel, looked at Lao Luo and Xiuqin, and said, "Let's go!"
Now, Xiuqin had no choice but to push Lao Luo and follow the pancake woman to the corner.
The woman who stalled the pancakes was named Yang Mei, she had a son and a daughter, and her son went to work at Foxconn this year after graduating from high school last year and not being admitted to college. Yangmei's youngest daughter has just entered the first year of junior high school this year, and her academic performance is average. Yangmei's husband is a truck driver and his income is okay. Yangmei usually has nothing to do at home, so she got a tricycle to sell pancakes. Not to mention, this pancake stall in Yangmei is so good that it is even higher than the income of ordinary local white-collar workers.
Xiuqin pushed Lao Luo and followed Yangmei to a market, which was called "Yuanheng Antique Market".
Yangmei pointed to the market and said, "This is it!"
Xiuqin's heart became more and more uneasy, but at this point, she could only go in hard.
Inside the "Yuanheng Antique Market", there are shops and people everywhere. There are antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade and so on in the market, of course, there are mixed truths and fakes, and there are many of them. In some hidden corners, there are still some sneaky whispers, it is estimated that some tomb robbers dug up some ancient tomb burial goods to secretly peddle.
Yang Mei walked briskly into one of the shops, an antique shop with rusty antiques on the counter. Of course, most of the antiques placed outside are worthless, or some fakes, really valuable things, and the shopkeeper is reluctant to put them outside.
In front of the counter sat a middle-aged man in a white down jacket, holding a magnifying glass in his right hand and carefully studying a copper coin in his left hand.
"Liangliang!" Yang Mei shouted at the middle-aged man.
Yangmei's cousin is called Sun Guangliang, who has been operating in the antique market for many years, and has studied antiques and modern collectible things, and occasionally receives some valuable antiques at a low price. Over the past few years, Sun Guangliang's life has become more and more solid. Yangmei's pancake stall was introduced to her by Sun Guangliang.
When Sun Guangliang heard the shout, he raised his head and saw Yangmei, and said with a smile: "Sister, you come to me to rest for a while!"
"Liangliang, there are two fans here, how much are they worth?" said Yangmei.
"Oh!" Sun Guangliang pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he said with great interest: "What fan? Take it out and let me see!"
Xiuqin hesitated, but still handed over the two fans.
Sun Guangliang glanced at the fan in Xiuqin's hand, and immediately concluded that it was not an antique, and his interest was greatly reduced. Sun Guangliang lazily took the folding fan from Xiuqin's hand and opened it casually. Sun Guangliang saw that this was a Chinese painting of a duck in a lotus pond, and when he saw the payment, his eyes widened.
Yang Mei saw Sun Guangliang's expression became extremely excited, and his hands began to tremble. Yang Mei felt a little puzzled and asked, "Liangliang, how much is this fan worth?"
Sun Guangliang didn't seem to have heard Yangmei's words, he opened the second folding fan tremblingly. When Sun Guangliang saw the painting on the folding fan, he was petrified again, his eyes stared at the picture, and he refused to move away for a long time.
After a long while, Sun Guangliang seemed to come back to his senses, he looked at Xiuqin, and asked solemnly, "Eldest sister, do you sell these two fans?"
"Huh?" Xiuqin saw Sun Guangliang's abnormality, and she vaguely felt that these two fans were not worthless as Yang Mei said. However, Xiuqin still doesn't know how much these two fans are worth. So, Xiuqin asked nervously, "How much can you give?"
Sun Guangliang hesitated for a while and said, "Eldest sister, let's do it! 50,000 ducks in the lotus pond and 100,000 in Chang'e to the moon, how about it?"
"Huh?"
After Yang Mei, Xiuqin and Lao Luo heard Sun Guangliang's words, their faces all changed greatly, and they wondered if their ears had heard it wrong.
Sun Guangliang was so excited in his heart, he misunderstood Xiuqin's expression, thinking that Xiuqin was not satisfied with the price, so he hurriedly said: "Eldest sister, if you don't think the money is small, we can discuss the price again......
Xiuqin realized that the value of these two folding fans was probably more than Sun Guangliang's offer, and she still couldn't understand that a person who couldn't even afford to eat pancakes and fruits would give her such a precious thing.
"This ...... I'll think about it again......" Xiuqin finished speaking, and carefully asked for the two fans back from Sun Guangliang's hands.
Sun Guangliang reluctantly looked at the fan in Xiuqin's hand, he was afraid of missing this good opportunity to make money, and hurriedly added: "Eldest sister, if not! I will help you auction these two fans, I only need one percent of the auction price, I guarantee that you can get at least 300,000!"
Xiuqin was completely shocked, 300,000 yuan is estimated to earn ten years for her family.
"Boss, let's go back and think about it, and then give you an answer!"
It was Lao Luo who spoke, after all, he was a man and well-informed, unlike his daughter-in-law Xiuqin, who had not come back to his senses for a long time.
"Okay then!" Sun Guangliang said: "When you think about it, give me a word whether you sell it or not, don't let me wait too long!"
After Sun Guangliang finished speaking, he handed Lao Luo a business card.
After Lao Luo took the business card, he said, "Then let's go first!"
In this way, Lao Luo sat in a wheelchair, pushed by his daughter-in-law Xiuqin, and slowly walked out of the "Yuanheng Antique Market".
