Chapter Eighty-Four: Coins

Zheng Shaoqiu can understand the other party's mood.

Fallen leaves return to the roots, fallen leaves return to the roots......

After wandering outside for a long time, the taste of hometown will not fade, but will become stronger and stronger.

After a full meal......

Lin Cen Yue looked at the snakeskin pocket curiously, and asked, "Uncle, what are you collecting here?"

She knew that her uncle often received strange knick-knacks, and sometimes he could sell them for a good price, but most of them were lost.

"Collected some copper. ”

Permission grinned, scratched his head, opened the snakeskin pouch, and poured it to the ground.

Suddenly there was a loud noise......

Zheng Shaoqiu fixed his eyes.

It's a bunch of copper coins!

Due to the long time, coupled with the lack of protection, through natural oxidation and water condensation, they are firmly adhered together, and the styles are not the same.

"It's all rusty......"

Lin Cen Yue picked up a pimple casually and broke it, but she couldn't break it at all.

This pile of copper coins has long been embroidered to a sturdy knot.

Through the mottled rust, you can still faintly see the words Shunzhi, Qianlong, Jiaqing and so on.

Seeing this, the corners of Zheng Shaoqiu's mouth twitched.

Collecting copper can collect this, it's really speechless.

Xu Xu pulled it aside casually and said with a smile: "Now copper is a price a day, and after a while, I can sell it and make a small profit." ”

He doesn't have too much ambition, and he doesn't expect any glory and wealth, as long as this small life can go on.

Hearing this, Zheng Shaoqiu took two steps forward and said softly: "Uncle, if you don't worry, give me these copper coins, and I will help you deal with them." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the money casually, found a flat place, and threw it lightly.

A tube of money is a string of coins that look like a tube.

Because the coins were buried in the soil, a lot of rust was formed when they were wet and stuck together.

This kind of money is very popular in the numismatic world, because the surface is covered with rust and it is difficult to see what kind of variety, like a gambling stone, you don't know what it will bring you.

Of course, it's basically a gamble of ten and nine losses.

The development of this kind of tube money is also very particular, you can use a knife to cut twice at the seam, or you can directly find a flat place to fall, however, the strength must be mastered.

Zheng Shaoqiu was obviously very familiar with it for a long time, and in just a moment, those copper coins were scattered all over the place.

Xu Xu was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and some did not react.

Lin Cen Yue moved in her heart, and asked softly, "Are these copper coins quite valuable?"

"At least it's better than just selling copper. Zheng Shaoqiu pursed his lips and replied.

Xu Xu came back to his senses now, picked up a copper coin casually, and looked at it over and over again, but still didn't see any signs.

He's a layman himself, and he doesn't know anything about any of this.

However, since it's valuable, that's a good thing!

Lin Cen Yue believed in Zheng Shaoqiu's vision, and immediately persuaded him: "Uncle, Shaoqiu is a little proficient in these antiques, you might as well hand over the money to him to deal with, and make sure to bring the money back to you without a penny." ”

She has always wanted to help her uncle and improve his life, but the other party's attitude has always been very resolute.

Now is a good opportunity......

Xu Wenyan nodded busily, and said happily: "Okay, okay, I'll leave it to you, I'll rest assured." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Zheng Shaoqiu with some surprise.

He had heard the name before, but he had never seen it.

Moreover, he knew that Lin Cen Yue was not very interested in this son-in-law, but now it seems that this is not the case......

"Bring some old vinegar. Zheng Shaoqiu turned his head and looked at Lin Cen Yue and commanded.

Lin Cen Yue didn't dare to slack off, and directly stepped on small steps and went into the kitchen.

There are many ways to clean copper coins, and soaking them in aged vinegar and water is just one of them.

You can also boil a pot of water directly, and soak it directly for five minutes after the water temperature drops by more than ten degrees.

In addition, there is the knife scraping method, etc., which is suitable for those hard green embroidery that is cemented into a block and covers the entire body of the money.

Of course, if it is a precious ancient coin, it is best not to clean it up easily, and it is better to keep it in its original state.

The twilight had fallen, and in the dim light, many moths flapped their wings and made a clattering sound.

Zheng Shaoqiu's movements were very familiar, and more than a dozen boxes of money were quickly split into pieces.

But I can't stand the large amount, this back and forth, it's already more than ten o'clock.

I found a dry cloth to wipe the water stains on the surface of the pencil and checked them one by one.

For Zheng Shaoqiu, the coins of the Qing Dynasty were not eye-catching at all, but now the situation is somewhat different.

There are a lot of good styles in these tubes, including Shunzhi Tongbao, Kangxi Tongbao, Jiaqing Tongbao, made by Baoquan Bureau, and other provincial bureaus.

Then he picked and picked the coins and gathered them into a pile, then boiled a large pot of water and poured it into it.

"Be careful, don't boil the water, otherwise it will be in bad condition, and the price will be dropped." ”

He casually admonished, then took a small brush and began to clean the coin of some minor blemishes.

Since ancient times, ancient folk have had the custom of using ancient coins to ward off evil spirits.

Usually the square hole treasure money is hung around the neck with a red thread, because the copper coin has gone through the hands of thousands of people, gathering the yang energy of hundreds of schools, and can resist evil ghosts.

At present, compared with ordinary ancient coins, this little five emperor coins gather more of the aura of the earth, the aura of the nation, the aura of the Son of Heaven, and the aura of the inheritance of hundreds of schools.

Because during the reign of the "Five Emperors", the country was prosperous, the emperor was alone, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the country was rich and the people were strong.

In addition, during the reign of the "Five Emperors", the coins were well-made and circulated for a long time, so in addition to warding off evil spirits, they could also pray for blessings, town houses, dispel evil and prosper wealth.

As a result, these coins usually sell for a good price.

Between the flips of the wrist, a Kangxi Tongbao appeared in Zheng Shaoqiu's palm.

With a flick, the coin flew straight into the night sky with a trembling sound.

"Shaoqiu, what do you think this is? It looks a little different. ”

Lin Cen Yue walked over, holding a few coins in her fingertips.

As we all know, copper coins are generally round on the outside and square on the inside, but the one in front of you is a full circle.

Zheng Shaoqiu took it casually and tossed it twice, and the weight was not light.

He rubbed his thumb heavily and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "It's actually a silver coin." ”

"It's dirty. ”

Lin Cen Yue pursed her lips slightly, and immediately took it and put it in boiling water to boil.

"You can't cook it, and once the pulp is melted, it's worthless. ”

Zheng Shaoqiu shook his head and hurriedly stopped her.

"What about that?"

Lin Cen Yue tilted her head and asked, feeling that the curves and curves in here were really complicated.
