Chapter 61: Antiques

As soon as Bai Zong got up, he heard Qin Yongmei's majestic voice.

"Who are you looking for?"

Bai Zong hurriedly hid the shotgun and secretly looked out.

You don't have to go out, just listening to the sound, Bai Ke can imagine the picture outside.

"Who are you looking for?"

Qin Yongmei scanned the other party with the eyes of the police, and seemed to be able to shine through the other party's internal organs.

"I, I'm looking for big, big flags. The other party was a little frightened under Qin Yongmei's gaze.

As soon as Bai Zonggang poked his head at the door, Qin Yongmei immediately saw it and beckoned: "Listen, what is your nickname." ”

Bai Zong touched his head and went out, and the person who came turned out to be a widow.

Bai Zong almost called out the widow's nickname, "That, he's my friend." ”

Qin Yongmei frowned and looked at the widow, and then glared at Bai Zong: "Be honest with me!"

Then he turned and went into the back room.

The widow let out a sigh of relief and came over.

Bai Ke couldn't help frowning when he saw the widow walk in.

He really didn't like to deal with people like widows.

So last time, I deliberately lowered the price of Xuande furnace to the level of scrap copper and rotten iron.

Does he still think it's a good deal?

Sure enough, the widow opened the package and took out another bronze vessel.

Bai Ke was stunned as soon as he saw the bronze artifact.

To be exact, it was not bronze at all, but bronze.

It is in the shape of a plate with words engraved on it.

It looks like an oracle bone or a golden inscription or something.

Although he knows almost nothing about cultural relics, Bai Ke is not illiterate, and he can still distinguish between copper and bronze.

What's more, he recognized that the text at the bottom of the plate was either oracle bone or gold.

Bai Ke's eyes were not hidden, and he was discovered by the widow.

I couldn't help but feel a little proud: "Not bad, right?"

At the point where it is now, there is no need for white customers to deliberately hide it.

He nodded: "It's good, but it'......"

The widow also picked up the plate and wiped it vigorously: "Don't look at it as a little old, in fact, wipe it......"

"Alright, don't rub it. Bai Ke was afraid that he would break the plate, so he hurriedly stopped it.

"I like things, but I don't know where you got them?"

"This ......," the widow was a little stumbling.

"If you don't have a good way to come, I don't dare to ask for ......," said the white customer, as he wrapped the plate.

"Don't, don't. I actually got it from my uncle's house. My uncle, who used to raid other people's houses, found this plate, and wanted to exchange it for money. ”

"It's not serious copper, and it can't be exchanged for money. ”

"Yes, he couldn't change it and threw it at home, and that day I suddenly remembered that little brother, you probably like it. ”

When Bai Ke heard him say this, he was immediately relieved: "Since there is no problem with the way, sell it to me." ”

Bai Ke originally wanted to give the widow five dollars, but it was a bit too dark to think about it.

After 30 years, how can this thing be sold for one or two hundred million.

But he gave too much, and he was afraid of frightening the widow.

So he took out a great piece of unity and handed it to the widow.

The widow was immediately flattered: "Thank you, big brother! Ha ha. ”

"You can also see my old lady, you can't rub sand in your eyes, don't make a mess. ”

"No, no. If you don't look at your face, you have to look at the face of the flag. ”

Bai Zong, a good old man, also helped on the side: "Yes, yes, the widow is measured." ”

Seeing Bai Ke put away the bronze plate, the widow remembered something: "By the way, there is another square one in the old Wang's house next door to us, which looks like this kind of copper." ”

As soon as I heard that it was Fang, Bai Ke estimated that most of them were Ding.

But he still asked quietly, "What does it look like?"

"Actually, it's also an incense burner. It has four legs and two ears. It's a lot more than this plate, and it's dead. ”

It's a bronze tripod, no doubt.

"But people don't sell what they use to burn incense, right?"

"yes, but a ceramic incense burner is only eight cents. If you give him more money, it should be fine. ”

Bai Ke thought for a while: "Then give him 20 yuan, if not, forget it." ”

"Definitely, he's not stupid. ”

"Don't give more, don't give less, you bring it and I'll give you forty. ”

"Good!" said the widow and went away.

As soon as the widow left, Bai Zong sighed: "I said, brother, what are you doing with all these old things?"

Because his brother trusts him unconditionally, Bai Ke has never told him why he accepts antiques.

At present, more and more white customers are being collected, and my brother is also a partner, so I can't say anything if I don't explain it to him.

"This old thing isn't worth much now, but it'll get more and more valuable in the future. ”

"Why? Is copper going to go up? But what about furniture? Is it going to go up like wood?"

"Oh, dude, you can't understand that. Bai Ke was worried, "You said that this teapot is not even worth a penny if you sell scrap iron, but you will have to buy a teapot for more than a dollar." ”

"Oh, I see. Hey, that's not right. You say this plate, who uses it, it's clumsy and heavy. ”

"It's, it's this ......," Bai Ke was speechless for a moment.

In this era of material scarcity, the value of goods is reflected in their usefulness.

Don't say that people with a low level of education like Bai Zong, most others are the same.

You tell him how much something that is not practical, even a decoration that takes up space, will be worth in the future.

It's no wonder he doesn't think you're a fool.

"Anyway, it's this, in another twenty or thirty years, these things will be worth a lot. For example, this plate will be worth at least 500 yuan in the future!"

Bai Ke was afraid of scaring his brother, so he didn't dare to say tens of millions or millions.

However, the 500 yuan also scared Bai Zong enough: "500 yuan? That's 50 pieces of great unity!

"Of course, I've ever lied to someone. ”

"Okay, okay. Since a plate like this is worth so much money, those older old things can probably be exchanged for more money. ”

After returning from rebirth, Bai Ke did not plan to collect antiques.

Because the realization of antiques is too slow, at least twenty or thirty years later.

And Bai Ke wants to improve the current life of his family.

But after getting the 10,000 yuan project payment, Baike suddenly found that he really didn't have much to spend.

In this era, there is too much material scarcity.

Baike can improve the life of the whole family just by relying on the wages of the middle and long pig farms.

You can't let all the 10,000 dollars lie in the bank and sleep.

And this 10,000 is just the beginning, and there are several more 10,000 to come, so we have to find a way to make money continue to make money.

In these days, it is not possible to do business, it is speculation.

Collecting antiques might be a good idea.

Right now, Biaozi and the widow are going out separately to help Bai Ke collect things.

Biaozi collected some silver dollars or something in the early stage.

This thing is hard currency, and it's worth a lot of money in any era.

So, I can only hide quietly at home.

Since the beginning of this year, Bai Ke has tried to ask Biaozi to collect some ceramics and old furniture.

Biaozi's brain is not good, but he is persistent and serious.

At the beginning, I collected all the dishes and dishes from the fifties and sixties and the old furniture of the Republic of China.

However, gradually he went to the Tao, and the things he collected became more and more old.

The white guest house was already full of old furniture.

There are also all kinds of antiques in the house of Bai Zong.

In the long run, I am afraid that it will cause unwarranted suspicion from my father, mother, and outsiders who come to visit the door.

Not long after the widow left, Bai Ke began to think: Should I buy a large courtyard?

It can be used as a warehouse and as an investment.

As soon as he told Bai Zong, Bai Zong was surprised again.

"Do you want to buy the old one again? But the old house is too expensive, and a large compound costs seven or eight hundred. ”

"Didn't I tell you everything, the old things will become more and more valuable in the future. ”

"You mean like this plate?"

"Yes. ”

"Oh my God, how much unity will there be in the future? ”

Bai Zong promised to look around to see where there were old houses for sale.
