Chapter 4 Finally Eaten

Li Yu went to the Pharmacist Valley to ask Fan Wuxian for an antidote. If you have a request for someone, you naturally can't leave empty-handed. Before leaving, the brothers and sisters of Guihongmen gathered some jewelry and handed it to Li Yu as a gift to Fan Wuxian in exchange for Fan Wujian's help. Unexpectedly, Fan Wuxian died suddenly, and Li Yu's gift was naturally not given. And now that the sea has changed into a mulberry field, Han Zhi and Li Yu's brothers and sisters are definitely no longer alive, and these jewelry naturally belong to Li Yu.

The bracelet that Li Yu took out to show Sun Shan was one of the pieces of jewelry, made of pure gold, with exquisite workmanship, and was worth forty or fifty taels of silver back then, which was dozens of times more expensive than the silver bracelet on Sun Shan's stall. If Sun Shan's silver bracelet can be quoted for 5,000 yuan, then this gold bracelet is worth at least hundreds of thousands, right?

Of course, Li Yu also knows that the 5,000 yuan that Sun Shan said is exaggerated, if you squeeze out the water, the real price is estimated to be around 1,000, according to this calculation, his gold bracelet can also be worth forty or fifty thousand, enough for Li Yu to live in this era for a year or two.

Li Yu didn't want to be more low-key, but he really couldn't find anything cheaper than this gold bracelet. Fan Wuxian is not an ordinary person, and Li Yu certainly can't bring some cheap gifts to meet him. In his backpack, any piece of jewelry was much more expensive than this gold bracelet, and he didn't dare to take it out lightly.

Sun Shan is also a knowledgeable person, and the moment he received this gold bracelet, he knew that it was definitely a good thing. In terms of weight, this bracelet is definitely made of real gold, with no doping with other metals. This is still secondary, the most important thing is the workmanship of the bracelet, which is made of gold pieces and gold wire hammering, and four filigree dragons can be seen on the surface, although only between square inches, the dragon's eye dragon whiskers and so on are clearly visible, lifelike. Such workmanship, not to mention antiques, even if it is a modern product, the value should not be underestimated.

Sun Shan estimated that if this bracelet was sold in an antique shop in the city, it would be able to sell for at least 180,000 yuan. If you meet someone you like, you can get it with an offer of 200,000 yuan. Don't look at Sun Shangan's antique business for several years, it is the first time he has seen such a good collection.

"Not bad!" Sun Shan praised, "This bracelet looks like new, what's the matter, it's your master's beloved treasure, right?" ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Yu with knowing eyes, which meant to say: Little Taoist, I have seen through your little tricks, if you steal Master's things and sell them, don't expect to ask for a price.

Li Yu returned Sun Shan's teasing expression, and said lightly: "Big brother guessed wrong, this is my family's ancestral heirloom, not stolen." If the eldest brother is really optimistic, let's make a price. ”

Am I mistaken? Sun Shan's heart sank, Li Yu's demeanor was too calm, this was definitely not something that a little Taoist priest who had stolen Master's treasure could pretend to have, and it was not even something that a person of Li Yu's age could have. He was a little more cautious about Li Yu, and after a while, he said slowly: "This bracelet, the workmanship is indeed very good, but the quality is too new, I suspect that at most it is from the Republic of China, and it may even be a handicraft made by modern people." For the sake of workmanship and condition, I'll give you 5,000 yuan, what do you think? ”

"5,000 pieces? That is, and your silver bracelet is the same price? Li Yu asked rhetorically.

"This silver bracelet is definitely not worth 5,000, little brother, you are also a knowledgeable person, aren't you?" As soon as Sun Shan turned his face, he denied what he had just said, and he could see that Li Yu was not a fool, he must have known that the offer of 5,000 yuan just now was false, so he denied it without any psychological pressure.

"To be honest, the only problem with this bracelet is that it is too new, I dare to pack a ticket, it is at most the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China." Sun Shan pushed the age forward for a few decades, because in his vision, of course, he could see that this must be an ancient product, as for the middle and late Ming Dynasty, or the early Qing Dynasty, it still needs to find someone to identify it, but if you insist on saying that it is something of the Republic of China, I am afraid that it will not be reasonable.

"When do you say it's the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China?" Li Yu was completely ignorant of this history, so he simply asked Sun Shan bluntly.

"At the end of the Qing Dynasty, it had to be after 1900. The Xinhai Revolution in 1911, isn't it the Republic of China? It's probably what it looks like for more than ten years, and now it's about 100 years, and it's an old object, but the price is a lot worse. Sun Shan said skillfully.

Li Yu nodded, and he had gained a little bit of historical knowledge, which was good. Speaking of this, he didn't bother to go around in circles with Sun Shan anymore, and said bluntly:

"Big brother, we are all understanding people, and bright people don't say dark things. This bracelet was made in the Wanli period, and there is the word 'Ruliang' on the inside of the bracelet, which is the name of the gold and silver craftsman Ding Ruliang in the Wanli period. My bracelet is an ancestral heirloom, if it is not for the urgent use of the family, I will not sell, the eldest brother will give a refreshing price. ”

"This ......" Sun Shan was dumb all of a sudden, he looked carefully at the inside of the bracelet, and sure enough, he saw the word "Ruliang", but as for what Li Yu said about the gold and silver craftsman Ding Ruliang, he didn't know anything. Li Yu said it so surely, he couldn't refute it, and he hesitated for a while.

"Or, I believe in the little brother once, give you 10,000, no, 10,005, what do you think?" Sun Shan gritted his teeth and said.

"Then I'd better keep it for myself." Li Yu stretched out his hand and grabbed the bracelet, turned around and left. He just emphasized that he had an urgent need at home, and he wanted to sell this bracelet, but he actually deliberately left room for Sun Shan to bargain. His psychological price for this bracelet is about 50,000, and even if Sun Shan opens it to 30,000 yuan, he will make a move. But when it comes to Cheng DΓΉ, who is so clear, Sun Shan is still playing with his heart, and Li Yu is too lazy to entangle with him anymore.

"20,000, what do you think!" Sun Shan asked behind him.

"Forget it, I'll find another good buyer." Li Yu put aside the next sentence and continued to walk forward.

"Little brother, let me see that bracelet of yours, how about it?"

At this time, a voice came from behind him, and his tone was a little gentle.

Li Yu stopped and looked back, only to see an old man standing behind him, wearing a Tang suit with a buttoned placket, half of his hair white, and he looked like he was in his sixties. The old man's face had an unfazed look, which made Li Yu feel a little reverence.

In fact, when he was still on Sun Shan's stall just now, Li Yu had already noticed that there was an old man standing not far from him, and he was talking to Sun Shan, and the old man was looking at him. The reason why the old man didn't speak just now, but waited for the deal between Li Yu and Sun Shan to collapse, and then caught up to say hello, thinking that it was also following the rules of the antique world, that is, when other people's transactions were not finished, the third party could not intervene, which Li Yu also understood. From the fact that the old man was listening attentively to their conversation, Li Yu could guess that this should also be an antique player.

"Sir, are you interested in this bracelet for juniors?" Li Yu asked respectfully.

"Well, when you gave the bracelet to the stall owner just now, the old man saw it, and he was a little happy to see it, so he took the liberty of asking for it to take a look, I don't know what the little brother thinks." The old man learned from Li Yu's tone, and said in a crepe manner, people who do antiques have a little bit of Chinese culture skills, but they are not used to talking like this, and it is inevitable that they will be a little awkward to say.

"It doesn't matter." Li Yu said, he looked left and right, and then pointed to a bench for passers-by to rest and said, "Old man, let's sit over there and talk, how about it?" ”

The old man glanced at Li Yu's fingers, shook his head and said: "It's too noisy there, so let's do it, there is a teahouse not far ahead, it's quite quiet, the old man invites the little brother to sit there, how about we talk while drinking tea?" The old man still has some questions and wants to ask the little brother for advice. ”

"Don't dare, just according to what the old gentleman said." Li Yu responded.

The old man led Li Yu to take a few steps forward, and there was indeed a small teahouse in front of him, which looked a little elegant. The old man entered the teahouse familiarly, and a man had already greeted him, and without saying a word, he took the two of them upstairs to the private room, and gave them four-color refreshments.

Seeing the refreshments on the table, Li Yurao was determined, and his eyes were a little distracted. If you are anyone, you have been hungry for 380 years, and it is difficult to stay calm when you see the food in front of you. The old man glanced at Li Yu and said with a smile: "What, is the little brother hungry?" ”

"Indeed, after driving dozens of miles of mountain roads in the morning, I was indeed a little hungry, which made the old gentleman smile." Li Yu said.

"If you're hungry, eat something." The old man pointed to the things on the table and said, "A young man of your age is the time when you can eat, as the saying goes, if you eat a bowl after a while, it means that you are your age." It's okay, you just let go of the food, it's not enough for me to let the guy bring some more. ”

"That junior is rude."

Li Yu agreed, then stretched out his hand, grabbed a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth. He originally wanted to be a little reserved, but his stomach was not angry, and as soon as the pastry reached his mouth, a strong suction force was generated in his stomach, so that he didn't even have time to chew it, so he swallowed it directly. His hands stopped listening to the command, and he thought that he should move slowly, but in fact he couldn't. In just two minutes, all four small plates of pastries were in his stomach.

The old man watched Li Yu gobble up, and a loving smile appeared on his face, perhaps thinking of his grandchildren. He clapped his hands lightly, called his buddy, and asked him to bring four plates of dim sum, and this time, instead of taking it according to the amount of refreshments, it was three times more, enough to make Li Yu's stomach round.
