Chapter 17 First Sale
Ji Kai was lying on the bed, and was taking out his mobile phone to check where the antique shop had a better reputation, when his mother walked in.
"Kai'er, are you playing with your phone?"
"Well, just take a look. Ji opened his phone and looked at his mother.
"You went to Rongcheng to see [the store], how is it?" asked the mother.
"It's hard to go and see it, not to mention the small area, there are two bigger ones within a hundred meters next to it. I didn't take over. ”
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time. In the past two days, I'll take a look and find a time to call your uncle and ask him to show you if you have any work. Anyway, I'm just saying hello in advance, and if I don't find the right business, then ask your uncle to do me a favor. "My mother explained her intentions, and my uncle is the director of the traffic management department in Rongcheng, and he still has some ways.
"Well, let's see, anyway, it's okay if I don't work this year, I still have savings. "Ji Xingxing thinks that I will have an income of tens of millions in a hurry, what else do I work. But this can't be said directly to the mother, so you can only postpone the work later.
"You have, but what about Yiyi, you still have to give money!" the mother was very worried.
"It's okay, I've been paid unemployment benefits every month for the past two years, and Yiyi's money is enough. Ji Kai thought of his daughter, and he missed it a little in his heart.
"It's better to plan ahead, you still have to think about starting a family in the future, it's best to buy a second house in the city. "My mother's biggest hope is to have a house of her own in the city.
"Yes, I know. Ji Kai decided to sell the silverware tomorrow, and then go to the jewelry store to appraise those gems, sell them if he could, and come back to the city to buy a big house, so that his mother will be happy.
"Then you continue to play with your phone, I'll go to sleep first. With that, the mother walked out of the room.
Ji Kai is not going to go too far, Shu Province is also more economically developed in Chengdu, and the antique market is also there, and I saw a lot of shops when I went last time. However, this time I changed to the Caotang West Market Antique Market, because it is next to Du Fu's Thatched Cottage, and you can also go to play at that time.
After determining tomorrow's route, Ji Kai thought about packing a total of seven gems in each small bag of his backpack, so that he could sell a few if he wanted to sell them at that time.
After thinking for a while, he continued to watch the pictures of ancient martial arts practice in the language scene, what man doesn't have the heart of a warrior?
There was a faint sound of his parents getting up next to his ears, and Ji Kai hurriedly got up to prepare to practice the body strengthening technique - that is, the method of refining the body of the witches, the name given by Ji Kai.
After leaving the room and washing, Ji Kai found that there was no suitable place to practice? Everyone in the village got up early, what kind of moves do you practice in front of others, but you will be laughed at.
I said hello to my parents, said that I went to the river to see what it looked like now, and then trotted to the river with a towel and soap.
Since the Wenchuan earthquake that year, Shuzhou has received the support of the old capital, and has been engaged in construction everywhere.
It is said that after the riverside in the village was contracted, they began to dig sand and gravel for construction, and there was basically not much land along the river, it was hollowed out, and no one should go anywhere in normal times, especially at such an early age.
Ji Kai came to the river, and sure enough, it was different from what he remembered, and the river became wider and deeper. I found a woodland and practiced physical strengthening in an open place.
After practice, he was sweating profusely, but fortunately, Ji Kai was prepared early, so he wore shorts and short sleeves. Anyway, there was no one by the river, so I walked to a place where the water was slow and could see the bottom of the water, took off my clothes and pants, and jumped into the river to scrub and wash.
The river water was really cold in the morning, Ji Kai quickly washed it, dried his body with a towel, put on only shorts, put on his short sleeves and ran all the way home.
When I got home, I changed my clothes and pants, and threw the changed ones into the washing machine to wash.
Ji Kai felt that it was still a little inconvenient at home, and there would be many secrets that were not suitable for being exposed to the public in the future, so it would be nice to have a private place. But you still have to wait until you have the money to think about it.
I told my parents that I would go to Rongcheng to do something, and it was estimated that it would take several days, and I drove straight to Rongcheng.
Follow the mobile phone navigation guide and go all the way to the Caotang West Market Antique Market. Park your car and take your time.
Today should not be a specific market day, the Internet says that the market will only open every Thursday.
The flow of people is very small, and there are hardly many people to be seen. Unlike Panjiayuan in Yanjing, it is said that it is crowded with people, and even foreign tourists like to visit it!
The antique industry is "three years without opening, open for three years", as long as you sell such a good thing, the money earned is enough for the people to eat for several years, but unfortunately Ji Kai has not found the relevant language scene, but, anyway, I don't rely on this thing to eat, and I will look for it when I have time.
Walking around the Caotang West Market Antique Market, I found a shop that looked very well decorated from the outside, with three storefronts and three floors above and below. It is estimated that this is more reliable, and Ji Kai walked into this antique shop called "Appreciation of Ancient Xuan".
Upon entering, a middle-aged man with glasses walked out of the counter.
"Little brother, are you looking for some kind of antique, or do you have something to sell?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile. (I don't have any experience in the antique market in early autumn, so I'm not right, I hope you'll forgive me)
"Oh, I've got a couple of silver antiques here that I'd like to ask the boss to help me see. Ji Kai was a little nervous, after all, he had no experience in this kind of place for the first time.
"Little brother, sit down, please take out your things, I'll take a look first. The boss guided Ji Kai to sit on a pair of wooden sofas.
Ji Kai put down his backpack, took out the wine jug, wine glass and beads from it, and put them on the coffee table next to him.
"Boss, please look. ”
The middle-aged man picked up the wine jug and looked at it, put it down, and then picked up the wine glass and looked at it. After putting down the wine glass, he picked up the bead flower again and looked at it carefully, and then took out a magnifying glass from his coat pocket to look at the bead flower.
After a long time, the boss put down the beads, rubbed his temples, and then said:
"I'm sorry, but I was fascinated for a while. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, or the boss will take a look. Ji Kai hurriedly said.
"Your four silverware, wine jugs and wine glasses should be made in the Northern Song Dynasty, but because there is no inscription and no pattern, it is estimated that they were made by the people at that time. ”
The boss said, pointing to the flask and glass.
"Then how much can it be sold for at the market price now?" Ji Kai wanted to know how much it could be worth.
"Hehe, I weighed it with my hands just now, these three pieces of silver are estimated to weigh eight taels, according to the current price of silver, it is about three more than one gram, which is more than a thousand yuan. However, this is a finished product, and it has been so long, it is well preserved, and the market price is about 20,000 yuan. ”
