Chapter 36: Snuff Bottles

Fang Qi had money in his hands, and his mood naturally changed. Originally, he was still a little in awe of the head of the grade, but now suddenly he was not worried at all, after all, now that he has money in his hands, even if he is expelled from school, he can live a good life. What is the use of a diploma now, what is the use of a diploma in the future, he will open a small shop by himself and be his own boss? As for face, hum, when he was working part-time, he had already seen through it, did he earn his own face, if he didn't have the strength, no matter how big his face was, it would be just a piece of paper, and it would be broken if he stabbed it.

When Fang Qi returned to the classroom, many people looked at Fang Qi in surprise. But Fang Qi didn't care about the differences between them, but continued to read his book. Fang Qi was not treated by them for two reasons. One is that the personality is a bit withdrawn, and the academic performance is very good, so in their eyes, it is arrogant. The second is the rumor that Fang Qi was taken down, Fang Qi collected at least 100,000 yuan from others, and in this 'holy' school, they looked down on Fang Qi.

Gradually, as the months passed, Fang Qi's grades were the first in his class every time. At first, it was an accident, but after a few times, Fang Qi did not fall past the top three, and every time he took the final exam, Fang Qi's results always occupied the top ten on the age score list, which surprised many teachers.

For Fang Qi, a student who was replaced because he received money, they also shook their heads in disappointment at first, but they didn't expect that after a semester, Fang Qi would be in the top ten every time, and he was the only one who was not in a key class.

"Students, you must review your homework well during this year's winter vacation, the next semester is the college entrance examination, this winter vacation is just the cradle of your starting point, I hope you will go back, you can ask for a tutor, please ask a tutor, if the family is poor, I have some learning materials here, you go back and take a good look..."

After a fanning speech, the teacher left, and then a group of hungry wolves, as if they had just been released, ran frantically towards the school gate as if they had seen delicious food. Fang Qi, on the other hand, slowly packed up his textbooks, which he had not planned to bring in the first place. What knowledge he has now only needs to be able to get the results of Yuntian University.

Slowly walking out of the school, Fang Qi looked at the cars around him, all of them came to pick up his children, and now he was alone walking here alone.

"Hey, Fang Qi, how can you walk back by yourself, do you want me to give you a ride." Fang Qi looked at it, it turned out to be the big head and Lin Tian drove a private car in front of him, although Fang Qi didn't know anything about the car, but he also knew that this car was also quite expensive, and he couldn't get it without hundreds of thousands. A few of their classmates were still inside, looking at the crowd inside, even if Fang Qi wanted to go up, he was not available.

"No, I'm going to the antique street, it's quite close from here." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Ma Tiancheng suddenly showed a look of pity.

"Fang Qi, let's go first, I booked a private room with a few buddies in the Jin Family Villa, and I'm going to go crazy for a night, I know your character, you definitely won't go back, hehehe, go first, bye." Hearing Ma Tiancheng's words, Fang Qi nodded, and then Ma Tiancheng stepped on the accelerator, leaving a pile of exhaust gas.

Fang Qi went to a nearby bank and withdrew 100,000 yuan and put it in his bag. In the antique market, payment is generally made in cash. After all, there is no big business, who uses checks.

Liulichang was originally a book market, in the Qing Dynasty, officials and examinees often gathered here to visit the book market, and slowly developed into an antique culture market. The antiques here are mainly calligraphy, painting and books, and many famous century-old shops, such as Yuanyin Mountain House, Guyi Zhai, Ruicheng Zhai, Cuiwen Pavilion, Yide Pavilion, Li Fushou Bizhuang, Rong Bao Zhai and so on are all here.

"Nice object, open to the generation, but unfortunately it's a bright vessel." Fang Qishun looked at it, it was a middle-aged man holding a large pot like a ceramic, which looked very old, and there were some soil cores, but the word Ming ware was a little taboo. But if it's a good thing, someone still collects it.

"What's the Ming weapon, is it suitable for my grandfather to send this?" Hearing this, Fang Qi almost tripped and stumbled, and sent a bright device to his birthday, isn't this a curse for people to die early? Fang Qi looked at a young man wearing brand-name clothes. There are a few bodyguards behind him, and they seem to be a young man, as for the middle-aged man, he should be the palm of his hand.

But Fang Qi also knew that this person might be an outsider, and he didn't know that the Lu Dao Ming Weapon was a spiritual weapon, something for the dead. Of course, there are some exceptions, Tang Sancai is a spiritual weapon, but because of its artistic value, the lowest is hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of millions. But Fang Qi looked at the thing that the middle-aged man was holding in his hand, it was an ordinary big jar, and there were some memorial portraits on it, even if it was tens of thousands at most before the Ming Dynasty, and it was something that was taboo for others, basically no one bought it.

"This gentleman, the Ming vessel is a thing for the burial of the dead, if this young master wants to give a gift, I have something that is suitable, although this is not the best thing, but you are satisfied." Fang Qi looked at the boss and took out another porcelain, it was a snuff bottle, which was extremely popular in the Qing Dynasty, and now the collection is extremely high, and it is also very collectible, and it is also a good thing to send the old man for his birthday.

Snuff bottle Fang Qi has only seen in books, but he has never seen the real thing, and snuff bottle as a popular porcelain at that time, his craft can be said to have developed to the extreme, from blue and white porcelain, enamel color, white jade, jade, etc., all kinds of materials, Fang Qi couldn't help but stop.

Feng Ya Zhai is not large in area, but there is a store of dozens of square meters here, and it is a rental fee of 100,000 yuan every year.

"Send this small bottle, you think this is jade agate, and you won't let everyone laugh at me at that time." Seeing that the young man did not know how to do it, the boss did not look at the young man, but looked at the middle-aged man.

"Xiaoxing, don't make noise, this is a good thing, if it's genuine, you can't get it without a million." Looking at the things in front of him, the eyes of the middle-aged man are full of solemnity, this is a Qing Qianlong imperial copper enamel flower picture snuff bottle, it can be said that the value is high, and a picture of the birthday of the five sons is depicted on it, whether it is painting or craftsmanship, it has reached the peak of the time.

Behind it is the Qianlong year system of the Qing Dynasty, whether it is the amount or various characteristics, there is not the slightest flaw.

"Boss, how much does this snuffbox cost?" Optimistic about this snuffbox, the middle-aged man looked at the boss and if the price was right, he would buy it.

"Five million in one go. This is the treasure of the store, it has been here for more than ten years, and you look at the birthday picture of the five sons, it is definitely from the hand of Lang Shining, a master of the Qing Dynasty, five million, not expensive at all. Hearing that the little snuffbox was worth five million, the young man almost thought he had heard it wrong. Five million, even if you buy gold, is more than a few heads of this snuff bottle.

"Hehe, the boss's price is a bit high, if the birthday picture of the five sons on this snuff bottle is really from Lang Shining's hand, don't say five million, even if it is ten million, he will buy it, but unfortunately he is not. And even if this snuff bottle is auctioned, two million is already top, and after removing various miscellaneous expenses such as handling fees, it is 1.8 million. One and a half million, this is the most price, I don't want to bargain, this is my bottom line, I am not wronged. Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the boss suddenly hesitated.

"Four million, you have to know that this is a rare enamel color genuine, and it is suitable for birthday celebrations." The boss looked at the young man, and the meaning was intriguing. If you don't open for three years, you can eat for three years, this is the law of the antique world. If this business is made into a million-dollar profit, the windfall profits can be imagined.

"Hehehe, Xiaoxing, let's go?" Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the young man suddenly hesitated, if he didn't know his value, forget it. But the middle-aged man has already said that this snuffbox is worth more than one and a half million, such a thing, it is not far to spend a little more money, anyway, it is to celebrate his grandfather's birthday, and he can still afford to lose this money.

"Boss, I bought four million." Hearing the young man's words, Fang Qi nodded secretly, but the middle-aged man frowned.

"Okay, is this gentleman using a cheque or a transfer?" Hearing the boss's words, the young man was about to transfer money, and the two went out for a while. Fang Qi also took a turn inside. This is just an episode, but Fang Qi looked at the boss who came back with a smile and shook his head, this thing is at most one and a half million, and this boss doesn't know how much money Lu Dao spent when he received it, but the profit of more than two million changed hands.

Fang Qi slowly looked inside, most of the things in it were enamel, but there were only a few genuine ones. And with the boss's eyesight just now, the real product left him with very few opportunities, very few, but it didn't hinder Fang Qi's interest.

"Boss, how much does this snuffbox cost?" Looking at the enamel colored snuff bottle in Fang Qi's hand, the boss suddenly smiled, he had just made a fortune, but he didn't expect that there would be another one to be slaughtered now.

"This is the Qianlong imperial enamel color snuff bottle, compared to the one just now, although it is not as good, but it is also a million, since the little brother likes it, take a million." He had already noticed Fang Qi. The price of just five million, the young man was taken aback, but Fang Qi was not the slightest surprised, and from beginning to end, Fang Qi did not say a word, Fang Qi was mostly an insider.

"Hehehe, boss, you are not real, you look at the long on the print, is it so much, this should be a high imitation of Mr. Li Xian, the porcelain king of the Republic of China, although it is good, but the price will definitely not exceed 100,000, 100,000, how?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, the boss was obviously still immersed in the joy just now, and Fang Qi's words were not wrong at all, 100,000 yuan, when he received it, it was only 3,000, and he had already earned a lot.

"Okay, little brother has good eyesight, 100,000 deals." Fang Qi took out 100,000 yuan, then packed this snuffbox and carefully put it into his bag.

"Little brother walk slowly." Watching Fang Qi leave, the boss's face was full of smiles, this time the two transactions, one big and one small, were very rewarding.
