Chapter 773: Antiques (2)
Shopkeeper Shen sent his men to invite someone, and the fat man personally poured tea for Bing'er. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info was greeting, and the connoisseur was invited, and it was actually the shopkeeper Li. Seeing Bing'er stunned, he immediately clenched his fists: "Childe is really generous, what treasures did you bring today?" ”
"It's not about treasures, it's just some jewelry."
"So there are still treasures? Take it out and we'll have a look. What is it? Ah, the mirror! Is this a mirror? Oh, of course. He was muttering, his heart pounding: "Desperate! The Manchu Qing Dynasty could not find such a mirror! It's as if I've gotten into the mirror, exactly like me! What is this frame made of? The Manchu Qing Dynasty could not find such material either; It's so delicate and smooth!
"Childe said a price, let's discuss it again, lest Childe say that he will suffer a loss."
"Mr. Shen will talk about it after reading these things." Bing'er was not flustered at all, and her expression was calm. When he saw the appearance of Shopkeeper Li, he understood that all Hangzhou jewelry, jade, antiques and the like had to be picked by Kali first. Since it was him, he didn't have to be polite, Bing'er said calmly: "A few pieces of jewelry are three thousand taels in total."
"Three thousand taels? A little too expensive, right? ”
"Shopkeeper Li, I want to say that five taels are also expensive. As the saying goes: you get what you pay for. Have you ever seen alloy jewelry? Did the Manchu Qing Dynasty have such radiant jewelry? We are not businessmen, so the price is not so careful, it doesn't matter if you don't buy it, there are many merchants in Hangzhou who deal in jewelry and jade, rare objects, so we have to sell here? Let's go. Bing'er put the things in the box and walked away.
"Childe is angry, the price is what you said, three thousand is three thousand. This is a silver ticket, two digits are good. It seemed that he came prepared, and took out a dozen silver tickets from his bosom, which showed that this man was quite wealthy.
Bing'er recognized the words on the silver ticket, as if she was verifying the authenticity. Shopkeeper Li felt amused, and said in his heart: "This, where is the material for doing business?" ”
The performance came, and the shopkeeper Li entered Kali's room without saying anything, and put things on the table. Kali motioned for Aunt Eight to get it, and Aunt Eight screamed when she saw it in her hand. Throwing the mirror to Kali: "When did you get a leprechaun again?" Is it Aunt Nine? ”
"Fart! Is there a stubble in the beard? Even men and women can't be distinguished, and the child in the belly must be an idiot! Kali looked in the mirror and said.
The eighth aunt couldn't help but listen to it: "Didn't you keep praising me for being smart and clever?" Why am I an idiot now that I have a little one? I like the new and hate the old, ah......" cried.
Shopkeeper Li said in his heart: "What a mess! Don't even know yourself anymore? So he stepped forward and made a gesture: "Lord Governor, Eighth Lady, what the two of you see is your own appearance, it is because this mirror is too clear, so you will be startled when you look at it coldly, and the beautiful lady in it is the Eighth Lady yourself, not a goblin." ”
"Huh? Is it? The beautiful lady inside is me? Hearing the flattery, the eighth aunt was too comfortable, and smiled.
"Of course, of course, this mirror is the treasure that I found for the Governor and his wife."
Aunt Eight picked up the mirror and looked at it seriously, in order to confirm whether the woman inside was herself, she bared her teeth at the mirror, and the woman inside also bared her teeth at her, it must be herself. The eighth aunt forgot that there was someone else in front of her, so she threw herself into Kali's arms and put her arms around his neck: "Dead Kary, you are so good! ”
"Madame! Don't do that! Mr. Li is here, don't mess around! ”
"Oh. I'm sorry, I'm glad to visit, and I ...... for a while."
"It's okay, Madame, look at the second treasure, this is absolutely no jewelry in the Qing Dynasty, called alloy jewelry, which is hairpinned on the head."
The eighth aunt's eyes immediately brightened, and she snatched the alloy jewelry with a "swish", put it on in front of the mirror, and looked at it before and after, and her heart was as happy as a flower.
Kali also felt very noble and nodded in satisfaction. He asked, "How much silver is this jewelry?" ”
"One thousand taels. With the addition of mirrors and these pieces of jewelry, the total is four thousand taels. ”
"Very good! Very good! This alloy jewelry is the only thing in the Qing Dynasty, a treasure! Treasures! The horse guards took Mr. Li to the account room to receive six thousand taels of silver tickets, and the treasures found this time were especially taken advantage of the thoughts of the governor and his wife, and they should be rewarded heavily! ”
"Thank you, Lord for the reward!"
"Wait. What are these things and what are they used for? ”
"This is a hair clip, called a hairpin, this is called a hairpin, they are all used by women, worn on the head, and made of vegetarian urine."
"What? Urine! "Kali picked up the hairpin, smelled it, and didn't smell urine, how could I wear it on my head? A little upset.
Mr. Li patted his head: "I remembered, I remembered, it was plastic!" It's too hard to remember, it's a plastic word that goes backwards, and the three words "go", "moon", and "earth" are combined. In the old age, the memory is too poor, the adult forgives! There is another treasure here, and I didn't dare to take it out. ”
"You, gasping for breath, since it's a treasure, you have to sacrifice it all, do you want to keep it for yourself?"
"No, no, it's not very good-looking."
"Take it out quickly."
The shopkeeper Li carefully took out a thing with a rope from his arms, and Kali pinched it in the bulging place, startled, and muttered softly, and the pinched place immediately returned to its original appearance.
"What is this?" The Kali had never seen such a strange thing.
"This, this ......" the shopkeeper Li said in a snort: "This is what the son said, it is used by young women, worn on the chest, that, it looks very erect, and the person is more energetic and younger." ”
"What's your name?"
"What kind of chest is it, I don't remember it too really, I'm sorry, it's on my chest anyway."
"Okay, okay, don't compare, you have a grassland there, and it may be recessed. Let's just say how much it is. ”
Shopkeeper Li gritted his teeth and said, "This is not too expensive, only one hundred taels." "One hundred taels is not expensive, this was given to him by Bing'er.
"That's it, let's get the silver ticket."
"Thank you, Governor!"
"Come, baby, this is the Governor's reward for you."
"What's so ugly about this?"
"This is to protect the pair of white rabbits on your chest." Kali laughed wickedly.
"Nasty, tell people, what kind of material is this thing made of?"
After whispering for a while, Aunt Eight's laughter almost lifted the roof and took it to the inner room to wear. When he came out, he really held his head high. Very satisfied,
Before Mr. Li left the house, the fat shopkeeper came to deliver the eagle. Mr. Li stayed, he knew that the fat man was an antique shop, and his professional habits were curious.
Kali and Aunt Eight were admiring the "vegetarian urine" hairpin, and someone sent the baby again: "What is this?" It's not small. ”
"Your Excellency the Governor is an eagle. You'll like it. "The fat man looks confident.
"Your Excellency the Governor is an eagle? Sounds awkward. Open it up, and the Governor will take a look. Aha! Ahaha! "Kali doesn't like it anymore! The base of the eagle ornament reads "Pengcheng Wanli", which is too auspicious, far-reaching, and too thoughtful for Kali! It's not Eagle Geely, it's these four words Geely.
"I said shopkeeper Li, where did you get this thing from?" Kali asked.
"Back to the Governor's words, I bought it from a rich man."
"Rich kids? Is it from our Hangzhou City? ”
"No, it's a Beijing accent, a proficient Beijing film."
"In other words, the people in the capital brought the goods from the capital?"
"That's how it should be."
"He didn't say what else he had in his hand?"
"I didn't say this, the old man felt that this kid was very rich, and there must be a lot of treasures in the family. The old man has been in this business for some years, but he has never seen these novelties he brought. ”
"Is it produced in Western big-nosed countries?"
"Not really. Westerners' things are another flavor, and they are all used by people in our big Central Plains. Westerners also have glass, but there are no mirrors made of glass, and such a clear mirror is much better than ours. ”
"If you see him next time, let him bring us all the treasures in his hand. I bought these treasures for a great use. ”
Shopkeeper Li understands that this big use is for promotion and gifts. Why do you still climb up when you are all governors? When you become a high official, you have to give a big gift.
If Kali knew that these "treasures" bought by thousands of silver were sold to him by Zhao Renyi, the master of the juggling benevolence class, his nose would not be crooked?
The benevolent class still performs, and it doesn't care about Kali at all. When it's cloudy, I take a few goods to various antiques, treasures, and pawn shops, and sell them at the right price. Some things that are afraid of breaking have to be sold quickly, and the space occupied by the exchange for silver tickets is much smaller.
It was a cloudy and drizzly afternoon, so there was no open-air performance. Bing'er and Shi Qing brought a swan-shaped glass ornament to an antique shop called "Qiantang Chao", and said that they should not sell it for so much money today, but I hope the shopkeeper here has nothing to do with Kali.
The shopkeeper here is not bad, and he didn't snub them because Bing'er and Shi Qingqing were light. The goods haven't been seen yet, and the attitude is so good, it's rare.
"This brother sells goods? Can you open it for you to look up and pay your respects? "The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man with a very gentle attitude.
"Yes, I'll open it for you below."
"Wow, these are too delicate, aren't they? What is the price? ”
"You look at it. This is a glass ornament, and we will sell it at the right price. ”
"How about five thousand taels?"
Bing'er and Shi Qing almost jumped. They already have experience, if Kali collects rare treasures, then you are welcome, he is greedy for ink, and he handed it over to the emperor to send to the treasury, which is also a contribution to the country. So I asked, "Did you buy a home to collect or ......?" ”
The shopkeeper was very realistic: "The first thing we do after we receive the novelty antiques is to show them to the Governor first, and we dare not keep them privately." However, if the Governor takes a fancy to it, he will give him a rich reward. ”
"Seeing that you are very honest, I will sell it to you at the price you offered. Things are very delicate, so be careful not to fall on the ground. ”
"Don't worry, we will be extra careful with such a valuable thing. This is a silver ticket, please keep an eye on it. ”
Bing'er looked at the silver ticket again and again, and left with Shi Qing after making sure that it was correct.
In less than an hour, the glass swan was in the hands of Kari. Looking at the crystal clear glass swan, Kali's heart was full of joy, and he felt that he was moving towards the steps of the first rank. Don't look at Kali as the governor of Liangjiang, he has a wide network in Beijing. The ministers who run errands with the emperor are very familiar with each other, and they also have dealings with the royal family. Just this glass swan, as soon as it is shot, the top on its head can be replaced with one step higher than now. Kali is completely immersed in the dream of being promoted, who can have the novelty of the treasure in my Kali's hands? Not to mention the entire Qing Dynasty, even the big nose of the West does not have these treasures! The scorpion tail is the only one, ha, after my Kali enters Beijing to report on work, I will take these treasures to give gifts, and keep those Beijing officials who boast of being well-informed, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes! What is the origin of this kid who sells goods?
Kali ordered his men to invite all the treasure-appreciating masters in Hangzhou to the governor's office, and bring out his newly purchased treasures to them for evaluation. He was also afraid of being deceived, not because he was afraid of losing money, but because he was afraid that people would laugh at him as a layman.
The baby is bought by the connoisseurs here, and the connoisseurs have to bear the loss if they get a fake. Kari doesn't care if they suffer or not, who blinded your eyes? If you don't use the silver to compensate, then use your head to compensate, whether to beat or punish yourself.
Who would dare to say that the treasure bought by Kali is a fake? One by one, they made a fuss and threw all the beautiful words at the triumphant Kali. In fact, all people are very disdainful, these things are good-looking, and they are definitely not worth a thousand taels. But no one said it, and if they did, they wouldn't be able to get a penny cheap. Everyone tacitly congratulated the Kali, and the Kali fluttered without knowing why.
Bing'er and the others did not continue to sell anything to Kali, for fear that he would find out. Those jewelry and antique dealers are giving the Kari a slap in the face, in case of trouble. It's better to perform on stage. But he forgot that this was the territory of the Kali, and the Kali did not eat dry food for nothing, or it was not for the newly bought treasures, and there were many spies who were collecting information from various channels for him. Although the Emperor of the Earth is quite smooth, he is also worried that someone will find his sore feet. Therefore, there are also a lot of spies in the market to wander around in various public places. Kali ordered these people to pay attention to the young, handsome, and dashing nobleman with a capital accent, and report it as soon as there was news.
Fortunately, Bing'er and the others usually don't wear the fancy costumes of those sons and act at all
The waiters were wearing performance clothes on stage, and when they put on makeup, they didn't even look next to each other when they were selling, so Kali didn't find out that Bing'er had anything to do with the treasure he bought for the time being.
Still Xue'er was more alert, because she had a heavenly eye, and she noticed that there were many people in the crowd who seemed to be idle and asking people about something, and they were wandering around antiques, treasures, and pawn shops. told Bing'er about his discovery. Bing'er was taken aback: "Did he find out if we sold him things at a high price?" ”
"I heard my grandmother say that Kali is very cunning, like a fox for fear of being deceived. Let's stop selling those attention-grabbing things for now, if he finds out, he'll be in real trouble. ”
"You're right, we'd better not have a conflict with him. Temporarily withdrawn. ”
