Chapter 1: Wishful Money

In the morning, at eight or nine o'clock, the sun floats in the sky, which looks very gorgeous and bright. It's already the October season, but in the south, the crisp autumn weather is still retained.

Early in the morning, Wang Guan got up, took a bus for more than an hour, and came to Lianshe North Road.

Lianshe North Road is one of the most lively and prosperous places in the porcelain capital, there seems to be a habit of morning market here, it is already particularly lively in the early morning, the streets are crowded with people on both sides, bustling, like a farmer's market boiling.

In addition to the rows of shops on both sides, there are also many small stalls on the spacious streets. One by one, the vendors, according to the established rules, scattered their goods on the ground.

Because it is a porcelain capital, most of the things are Ruyi money ceramics in Chapter 1. This thing, as well as bronze, jewelry, diamonds, bamboo carving, root carving, calligraphy and painting, ancient coins, old books, Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, etc., are varied, all-encompassing antiques.

Over the years, with the continuous improvement of living standards, a kind of antique collection boom has begun to be set off in China.

Under the influence of this craze, Wang Guan also became very interested in antiques and cultural relics.

Usually, if you have nothing to do, you just watch the collection and treasure appreciation column, expert video lectures and the like. I even bought a few sets of books on the appreciation of antiques and cultural relics, and studied and compared them.

However, interest is interest, and Wang Guan also understands the principle of doing what he can, and has formulated a principle for himself, that is, only look at it and don't buy it, so as not to be deceived.

After all, the identification of antiques and cultural relics requires a very deep foundation and literacy, Wang Guan is very self-aware, and knows that with his level of half a bucket of water, he does not need to expect to be able to find anything good.

With the psychology of casually looking at and increasing knowledge, Wang Guan walked around Lianshe North Road for most of the day. From early morning to noon, I walked for several hours, and I also felt tired.

"Forget it, take a rest first, and then transfer to the International Trade Plaza to have a look." Wang Guan took a breath and saw that next to him was the public facility for the rest of the Ruyi Money People in Chapter 1.

At that moment, Wang Guan walked over, and before he sat down, he heard a bang behind him, as if something had been sprinkled on the ground.

"Jingle Bell ......"

Wang Guan was startled, turned around to look, but saw a large piece of copper coins and copper coins scattered on the ground. A peddler in his thirties, squatting down with a sad face, hurriedly sweeping.

In the vicinity of the street, there are also many pedestrians stopping to watch.

Even Wang Guan was like this, just watching from the side, and he didn't mean to go up to help. It's not that they're indifferent, it's just that they don't want to cause disputes and misunderstandings. After all, under the melon field and plums, it is still necessary to avoid suspicion.

Rushing to help might make the peddler suspect that you were trying to steal his copper coins. Therefore, in this social climate, it is not so easy to do a good deed.

However, well-wishers also have a way of doing good. At least, the onlookers did not disperse, and even if some people had any thoughts, they did not have the courage to do it in full view.

"Whoa......

The peddler was not slow on his hands and feet, and quickly brought the copper coins on the ground back into the big bag on his body. There were a few of the remaining scattered pieces, which he picked up one by one.

Seeing this, the nearby pedestrians also dispersed one after another.

After a while, the peddler, after picking up the last copper coin, looked left and right, and felt that there was nothing missing, and was about to leave.

At this time, Wang Guan suddenly shouted, "Wait! ”

"Huh?"

The peddler turned around and looked at Wang Guan with a little confusion on his face.

"In the seam, there is still ......," Wang Guan signaled.

The road on the street is made of bricks, although it is smooth, but after a long time, there are more people walking, and it is inevitable that there will be some traces of the years. There happened to be a copper coin that fell into it when it was rolling.

In the direction of Wang Guan, it was clear to see, but the vendor did not pay attention. Under his reminder, the peddler looked down and found that the gap in the ground was very small, and the copper money was sandwiched inside, and it would probably take some effort to take it out.

"Thanks, brother."

The peddler blinked, smiled, and turned away, not going to ask for the copper coin.

At this time, Wang Guan said lightly: "Think clearly, it's a salty treasure." ”

"What ......" The peddler was stunned, stopped his steps, immediately turned around, and walked slowly. looked at the gap in the ground, and then looked at Wang Guan, his expression was a little hesitant.

Xianfeng Heavy Treasure, as the name suggests, is a coin minted during the reign of Emperor Xianfeng of the Qing Dynasty. This coin comes in many layouts and at different prices. The cheap one is worth a few dollars, and the most expensive one is worth 100,000 yuan.

Because the copper coin was sandwiched in a small gap, the young man could not tell what kind of layout the coin was.

You know, this bag of coins has just fallen into the hands of the peddler, and he has not yet examined it in detail, so naturally he does not know whether there are any expensive coins in it.

After thinking about it, the vendor rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his nails, and gently stirred through the gaps.

Wang Guan sat next to him, as if he was not looking, and his thoughts were flying.

After a while, the vendor broke off half of his fingernails, and finally pulled out the copper coin, and before he could look closely, he noticed that the weight of the copper coin was slightly heavy, and it was a faint golden yellow.

"There it is."

As soon as I started, the hawker was happy in his heart, looked down, and saw the four characters of Xianfeng and Chongbao on the coin, the handwriting was clear and deep, and there was no trace of mud and water. Look at the back again, when the head is a hundred words, the left and right sides are exquisite money texts.

"Baozhejiang Bureau, the first hundred!"

The hawker looked at it, touched it, weighed it for a moment, and was immediately overjoyed.

Based on his experience, he could naturally judge that this Xianfeng treasure was genuine. Moreover, it is well preserved, and there are fewer embroidered spots on the coin, which can be called a fine mouth, and the price is between 20,000 and 30,000 yuan.

"Thank you so much, brother."

However, the peddler did not forget Wang Guan, and after collecting the salty treasure, he immediately turned around and walked towards Wang Guan and expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"You're welcome." Wang Guan waved his hand and smiled politely.

"Thank you, ......" the peddler said, but his expression hesitated, and he suddenly reached out and took out a yellow coin from his pocket, and stuffed it into Wang Guan's jacket pocket, and said with a smile: "Brother, although this thing is not worth much, but it has also been opened by a master, and it should bring you good luck, which is my heart." ”

After that, after stuffing the things into Wang Guan's pocket, and without waiting for his refusal, the peddler hurried away, looking in a hurry, as if some beast was chasing behind him, and fled in the wilderness.

"What are you doing running so fast?"

Wang Guan was a little confused, took out the coin in his pocket, looked at it slightly, and immediately smiled dumbly, and some understood why the vendor ran so fast.

This coin, like the Xianfeng Heavy Treasure just now, is in the shape of a round square hole. However, compared to the Xianfeng Heavy Treasure, this coin is thin and lightweight. Wang Guan weighed it, and it felt similar to the beer lid.

Moreover, the material of the coin seems to be a cheap alloy. Although the surface is red and yellow, and the sunlight reflects bursts of golden light, the weight and texture of this coin show that this coin is not doped with much copper.

Especially on the obverse, from top to bottom from right and left, beckoning wealth into the treasure of the four seal characters, Wang Guan can know that this coin is not any kind of currency in the past dynasties, but a craft money.

Now it is not ancient, copper is not a precious metal, used to make some exquisite craft money, and then sent to the Buddhist temple Taoist temple to open the light, pray for blessings and ward off evil spirits, and ask for peace.

This is a common thing, and presumably this coin given by the vendor belongs to this type. However, Wang Guan is also wondering, with the stingy appearance of the peddler, has this coin ever been opened?

Of course, Wang Guan is not angry, but he just sighed a little, he did a good deed, but he was treated like this, no wonder the social atmosphere is becoming more and more indifferent.

"Whoever says good people will definitely be rewarded."

Suddenly, thinking of what happened to him, Wang Guan's expression became darker. For a while, I lost my interest in shopping, and sat lazily on the bench, casually playing with the craft money in my hand.

Although the craft money is very light and thin, but the workmanship is indeed very fine, the four seal characters of the fortune and treasure are as if they are secretly engraved in the coin, and the surface is very smooth.

On the back of the coin, there are some auspicious cloud pattern carvings, and Wang Guan's fingers have caressed these auspicious cloud pattern carvings.

Originally, this was an unconscious act, but all of a sudden, Wang Guan felt a pain in the tips of his fingers, as if it was burning hot, which made him wake up instantly.

"What's going on?"

Wang Guan hurriedly looked down, only to see that in the auspicious cloud pattern of the coin, there seemed to be wisps of red gold light floating, looming and changeable.

"Dazzled?"

Wang Guan thought it was an illusion, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully, but suddenly found that the gold wire engraved in the auspicious cloud pattern walked briskly, forming two simple and natural seal characters.

"Ruyi ......"

Wang Guan recognized it, and suddenly found that the coin seemed to be getting hotter, and even a little warm, flowing from his palm to his heart.

"Hell yes."

Realizing that this was not an illusion, Wang Guan was shocked and subconsciously wanted to throw the coins in his hand.

However, at this moment, the coin suddenly bloomed with brilliant light, and a strong golden light, with lightning speed, stabbed directly towards Wang Guan's eyebrows.

"Phew!"

This feeling is like a pinprick and fleeting.

After a while, Wang Guan reacted, felt a little confused, and hurriedly shook his head, trying to regain some consciousness. It took him a long time before he slowly settled down and reached out to touch his eyebrows.

The skin in the center of the eyebrows is intact and there are no imaginary scars. Looking at the coins in his hand again, there was no abnormal reaction at all, let alone any golden light, and even the sunlight could not be reflected.

"Could it be that everything is an illusion, I am daydreaming......" Wang Guan was completely confused. !!
