After Du Dongping's reprimand, the woman's heart was a little empty.

After being exposed, she didn't dare to talk back again.

She saw that Xu Ran was not a person who was easy to fool, so she said softly to Xu Ran: "Young man, how much can you offer, and if it is suitable, I will sell it to you, what do you think?"

Xu Ran pointed to a piece on the board of the bookcase and said, "If you want to collect it, you can make a palm-sized flat wood carving by picking it out, and you will be given fifty pieces at most!"

The woman said, "I'll sell it to you for a hundred dollars!"

"Then you take it, I didn't even want to pay for fifty yuan!"

"Hmph, take it away!"

The woman seemed to be petty again, and took the bookcase down.

But she walked a few steps, but found that Xu Ran didn't stop her, and it seemed that she was about to greet the next person.

She saw that this kind of tricks and tricks by retreating didn't work at all, and the other party didn't like her at all, so she had to hug the desk back and said: "Fifty is fifty, you can't even sell it as rags, and you won't be laughed at if you take it back!"

"It's fifty, you take it!"

Xu Ran didn't bother to say anything more to him, and directly threw fifty yuan to send the woman away.

Next, the remaining aunts took out broken porcelain one after another, some from the Song and Yuan dynasties, and some from the Ming and Qing dynasties, but these aunts carefully kept all the fragments.

Xu Ran took a moment to identify those fragments first, and then pieced them together, but he was able to piece together a few more complete ones.

The rest, along with the broken old bracelets, and a couple of snuff bottles, also ranging from a few hundred dollars, were taken down.

In the end, after combing through most of the 'rags' brought by these aunts, Xu Ran received the vast majority of the bids, and only a few returned them, and the transaction volume was still quite large.

I really can't figure out where these aunts got these antique fragments from.

Du Dongping was also extremely curious, so he asked: "Auntie, where did you get this rag wholesale, why do you do so much?"

The aunts who sold the 'rags' counted their money and smiled.

Listening to Du Dongping's question, an aunt finally told the secret.

It turned out that a few decades ago, Linhu Town was originally a small village, and a large area of wasteland near it was built as a farm and pasture during the period of the movement, and some so-called capitalists from big cities were sent to accept labor reform.

At that time, there were two people who were "big landlords", and after they came to the farm and ranch with their families, they quietly brought a batch of household belongings over, but they were accidentally found and reported, and they were directly smashed and buried in the wasteland on the spot.

Later, after a large area of land around Linhu Town was cleared into farmland, when the farmers who were assigned there one after another were reclaiming the land, someone accidentally dug up the antique fragments that had been buried and smashed, so there was also a looting at that time, and the fragments fell to some farmers' homes in Linhu Town.

Some people think that they are in tatters and throw them away, while careful people keep those things at home and forget them after a long time.

It wasn't until this time that Xu Ran told Aunt Qiao that she wanted to buy those rags, and Aunt Qiao went back to the town to mobilize these aunts.

When these aunts heard that someone had collected those broken antique fragments, they rummaged through them at home, and they really found a lot of tattered antique fragments, so they used the kung fu of rushing to the market to pull them over with a small tricycle.

When Xu Ran listened to these aunts tell about those things, he inadvertently noticed that Aunt Qin Siyi Qin's expression was gloomy, and she was in a state of sadness of sour remembrance of the past.

Judging from this person's unique temperament, Xu Ran speculated that it was most likely that it was Qin Siyi's home that was smashed at that time.

But these are old things, and Xu Ran doesn't want to ask.

Those aunts sold those antiques and tatters, and some of them picked up a few old goods from Xu Ran, and then left the warehouse one after another and continued to shop.

It's just that Aunt Qin didn't leave for the time being, and her expression at the door of the warehouse looked a little hesitant, as if she was entangled in something.

Xu Ran was about to close the door and talk to Du Dongping, when he saw that Aunt Qin hadn't left yet, he walked over and asked, "Aunt Qin, are you still in trouble?"

Qin Siyi hesitated, but still said, "I heard the Qiao family's sister call you Xiao Ran, and I also call you Xiao Ran, don't you mind?"

Xu Ran nodded: "You are an elder, I don't mind, if you have something to say, just say it!"

Qin Siyi said: "In fact, the antique fragments in these people's homes in the town are all a batch of antiques that were destroyed in that era, and my family was quite rich before this, all because I still have a few antiques in my family that were carefully treasured by my ancestors, so many years, it was only my father who sold one when he was the poorest, if it wasn't for my husband being diagnosed with cancer, he spent all the family's savings......"

Hearing her say this, Xu Ran understood Aunt Qin's thoughts, and said, "Auntie, since my uncle has cancer, the medical expenses are probably very amazing, do you have intact antiques that you want to sell?"

"Yes!"

Qin Siyi nodded and said: "My husband now costs tens of thousands of dollars for dialysis treatment every month, my daughter Xiaoyun is about to go to college, and there is a sick elderly person at home who needs to be supported, there is really no way, I can only find a suitable and reliable person to sell those few antiques......

Obviously, the 20,000 yuan that Qin Siyi sold to Xu Ran for the damaged Xuande furnace was far from enough for her husband's medical expenses, and at most it was only enough for her daughter's college expenses for one or two years.

Qin Siyi said that she wanted to find a suitable and reliable person to sell the antiques, and it was estimated that she was also afraid that the treasures hidden in the house would be remembered by others, lest it would cause some trouble.

Xu Ran said: "Aunt Qin, if not, you can write down my phone number, call me before you come, or come directly to me, I am usually very quiet, and there are not many idlers hanging around, you bring something, and you will not be noticed!"

"Well, thank you then!"

Qin Siyi took out her mobile phone, stored Xu Ran's phone number, and said, "Xiao Ran, then I will bring something at night, it won't cause you any trouble, right?"

"Of course not!"

Xu Ran said: "Before you come, you'd better tell me what it is, and I have a good estimate in my heart, so I can prepare money!"

"Okay, then I'll go first!"

After seeing the aunt ride away on the motor, Xu Ran entered the warehouse.

Du Dongping snorted a cigarette and played with a piece of porcelain fragment that he had just received before.

When he saw Xu Ran coming in, he carefully put down the fragments, and said: "Xiao Ran, I can't figure it out, what can you do with so many broken antique fragments, it's not worth much if it is repaired in this condition, this is a loss-making business, I usually don't dare to touch antiques, I'm afraid that I will be beaten and lose my money, you are ......."
