Chapter 5 The Qin Dynasty Band
Lao Pan is going to attend the wedding of his friend's daughter today, and the hotel is not far from me, so come and have a look.
Lao Pan is the kind of ordinary middle-aged man, his sparse hair is shiny and shiny, he is shy and has a shy stomach, he usually wears a T-shirt and slacks that he bargained for in a street store with his wife, his leather shoes are foggy, he has one or two sets of brand-name suits to support the faΓ§ade, wears coffee-colored mirrors, and speaks competently, like a businessman who has made a little money, and it can also be said that he is a small section chief in the city government agency.
In fact, Lao Pan is not simple, he is the second or third batch of college students who graduated from China University of Geosciences, majoring in archaeology. The college students of that era are the real pride of the sky, almost all of them have unique skills, Lao Pan is one of the best, if he has been going on in his profession, we will definitely be able to see him on TV today salvaging "Nanhai No. 1" or something, but unfortunately Lao Pan did not resist the temptation of the tide of the sea in the 90s, I thought that I could run rampant like a crab by virtue of my ability to become like a king after a few losses. It seems to me that he lost money completely on his own: he abandoned his profession and followed the two Fujianese people to flip the watch.
After 2000, he returned to the bank, began to collect, help people identify antiques, and his monthly income was unstable but barely a well-off family. He was my assistant manager just for a name, and he didn't get a salary, and only took a 2% commission from the appraisals.
Lao Pan handed me a "Yuxi", I put the knife on the coffee table and took it, and then went up to light the fire, before I could take the stubble, Lao Pan's eyes were already fixed on the knife - an ancient knife in the Warring States period is not natural to attract a person with deep archaeological skills. He picked up the knife casually, then bent up as if he had been punched, and took off his glasses with one hand as if he were about to get into the knife.
I hurriedly snatched it and put it in my pocket, interrupted and said, "Fruit knife, what do you see?" Old Pan pointed his two smoky yellow fingers at my nose: "You give it to me!" I noticed that his voice trembled slightly. I took out Jing Ke's knife and threw it twice in the air, saying in a joking tone, "You don't think it's an antique, do you?" β
It seems that Lao Pan was finally confused by me, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "Maybe I'm nervous, how can you have something from the Warring States Period?" Although the style and texture are very similar, there is no oxidation reaction at all, which is blinding. β
I played with the knife and pretended not to care and asked, "If there really is an ancient knife from the Warring States period, how much can it be sold?" Lao Pan lifted his glasses and said in a mocking tone: "If the things of the Warring States are sold by you, no matter who you sell them to, you will break the law, if you go out of the country, I am afraid that I will not be able to see you in my life, the state stipulates that antiquities before 1795 are strictly forbidden to leave the country, how many years have you calculated that the Warring States period has been since 1795?" β
I said, "Let's just talk, you can give a price." β
"Let me tell you this, a vase of the Ming Dynasty at Christie's auction in the United Kingdom can be sold for 15 million pounds, of course, there is nothing behind the scenes, not to mention for the time being, in Hong Kong, a Qianlong imperial knife can be auctioned for 40 million Hong Kong dollars, Qianlong himself has never seen this knife, not to say; A gold-plated sword used by Napoleon is equivalent to more than 50 million ......"
I interjected and said, "If it's the dagger that Jing Ke used to stab King Qin......"
Lao Pan glanced at me, stood up and said, "Don't talk nonsense with you, I have to go." β
After Lao Pan left, I stared at Jing Ke's knife and was stunned, with only one thought in my mind: this will be exchanged for coins, and I don't know how many times it can smash me to death......
In fact, I'm not stupid, I have long thought that even the most unsightly hair on Jing Er's stupid classmates can theoretically be regarded as cultural relics, but I also vaguely feel that it is risky to make a fuss about this, Lao Pan's words completely dispelled my idea, not to mention breaking the law or breaking the law, if you really want to go abroad, I don't have to wait for a thousand years for me to be a sinner through the ages. As the general manager of the "No. 1" pawnshop, it is okay to make some black money by hiding from the world and taking advantage of people's dangers, but how to say that when I was a child, the school also chartered the movie "Old Summer Palace", at least the citizens still have a ......
At noon, they only have 20 minutes of eating and resting, usually I close the door to find her to eat casually on the street, today I asked her to bring back a pound of buns, when the buns rushed back, Qin Shi Huang was watching "Meteor Garden" with relish, Baozi nodded with him as a greeting, and then quickly found a bench to sit down and watch, let her eat, she said that she had eaten, and she had to go back immediately to watch TV, and the TV show was in Daoming Temple and Hua Ze and Shancai when the three people were greasy and crooked, and the advertisements were inserted, and the buns stood up, Said to Qin Shi Huang: "Fatty, you will tell me the result when I come back in the afternoonββ"
My sweat is not this, Qin Shi Huang actually said in a very authentic Taiwanese accent: "Okay, you are very wordy." β
I dragged Jing Ke, who had been studying glass next door, to my house to eat steamed buns. At present, these two people have not caused me too much embarrassment, Jing Ke is more stupid, he is ashamed to ask for curious things, the things in my house are enough for him to study for half a year, Qin Shi Huang is with a carnival mentality to enjoy life, and maintain an appreciative and rare attitude towards all new things.
What I'm most afraid of now is that Win Fat Man and Jing Ersil will suddenly understand one day, and know that they have been swept away by the King of Hades, will they be angry with me first, especially after Qin Shi Huang knew that I had been calling him Win Fat Man behind my back.
I pressed the clothes they changed into at the bottom of the cabinet, and after a year I had to let them take away a lot of them, I confessed, the biggest worry why I didn't dare to exchange them for money was that I was afraid of getting into trouble, as far as I know, the international antique trafficking is not much worse than the drug and arms traffickers, if I sell a Warring States knife, it is difficult not to be haunted by ghosts, and just rely on this brick in my hand, it is estimated that it is more than lucky. Of course, I also have to say "I'm very wordy" that I really don't want China's treasures to be lost abroad, and I suggest that everyone just remember that.
Jing Ke's knife was washed by me and put in the toolbox, and the most dangerous place was the safest.
Baozi goes to the morning shift this week, that is: go at 10 o'clock and get off work at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, in fact, it takes almost 5 o'clock to leave, if it is a night shift, it will go at 4 p.m., and you can't come back until after 11 o'clock in the evening. Baozi never asked me to pick her up at night, not because she looked very "vigilant", Baozi's family was in the dormitory of the Iron Engineering School, she grew up fighting and killing children on the railway since she was a child, she belonged to the "children of the rivers and lakes", she whistled at the little white-faced teacher in the first year of junior high school, unfortunately she didn't know that it was a new tune to teach them English before whistling, fortunately the little white-faced did not hear, unfortunately their homeroom teacher - an old lady heard. Baozi learned two lines of poetry after studying for many years: the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold and let the wind and rain blow.
So she can sincerely accept my fox friends and dogs, today she carried a big basket of vegetables, she washed a cucumber and pinched half of it and handed it to Qin Shi Huang, chewing the other half and saying: "What's wrong in the end, how about the fir vegetables?" β
Qin Shi Huang had already figured out the purpose of the phone and the car through the TV in one afternoon, and later I told him what the TV series was about, he was very surprised, and asked me why I watched it even though I knew it was all fake, and I could only say that it was the same as him watching the beauties of the six countries dance to relieve his boredom.
Jing Ke had found his favorite, a dilapidated semiconductor radio, and the simple-minded fool had been thinking that the voices in it were made by the imprisoned villain, and he had spent the afternoon trying to communicate with the people inside.
With such two people around, I felt the need to give Baozi a vaccination, so I pulled her to the edge of the pool, pretended to help her wash the vegetables, and said, "Those two buddies can't keep up with their reactions." I also told her very tactfully, "It's not from the same era as us." Baozi said: "That big man seems to be a few years old from you, and the fat man is more than 40 at most." β
I scratched my head and said, "Rock 'n' roll, no one has been holding it up, and it's so exciting that my head is not very good." β
As soon as I said this, Baozi immediately understood. I didn't dare tell her that they were going to live here for a year.
After the meal was ready, Baozi asked Qin Shi Huang at the dinner table: "What is your surname?" After I explained what I meant, Qin Shi Huang said heartily: "Hunger is called to win the government." When Baozi's eyes turned to Jing Erdu, he had an idea and said first: "My name is Jing Ke." β
Baozi was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "Really creative, what's the name of your band?" β
With sweat on my forehead, I hurriedly answered for them: "Qin Dynasty." β
