Chapter 484: Gyeonggi Ugin Yan
I also found two complete sets of "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" at the scrap yard.
She has already collected several sets of this set of books, both old and new, but she is not too many for two more sets.
As soon as the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination comes out, it will be difficult to find a page of these books, so prepare more now, and it is not bad to lend them to relatives and friends when the time comes.
It may be that these waste products are too clean before being sent to the scrap station, or it may be that there are too many discerning people in Hujiang, and there are not many valuable things in them.
Carrying a large stack of old books and newspapers, he paid at the door, and soon left the scrapyard.
The scrap station didn't find any good things, so I turned around and went to the thrift market on Huating Road, which is not like Changle Road at the back door of Huaihai Road, which basically sells large pieces of furniture.
The thrift stalls on Huating Road are all selling small items, including daily necessities such as pots and pans, as well as elegant things such as literature and play, and there are a large number of stalls, just like a complicated life museum.
The southernmost stall on the west side sells old clothes, shoes and hats, except for some half-new ordinary clothes, some silk fabric clothes are displayed in a grand manner, and I even saw a luxurious red fox scarf.
Further north, all of them sell Western "antiques", including Western porcelain, stained glass, car glassware, cast copper, stone carvings, crystal chandeliers, and so on.
She once got a bronze table lamp, and its base was made into two fawns under a big tree, and the branches of the big tree were cleverly made into an umbrella shape as a lampshade.
The exquisite and dreamy shape, the extravagant and gorgeous craftsmanship, not to mention that it is rare enough now, even if it is put in thirty or forty years later, it is also a high-end literary and artistic style that is not outdated.
When I asked the price of forty-five yuan, according to the current price, it is actually quite expensive, but I really liked it, so I paid for it.
The stall owner brought old newspapers and straw ropes, and made an extremely thick bag for the lamp.
While packing, he also introduced that this lamp is good-looking, but it is not a good look, and the bulb can still be used normally.
If the light bulb doesn't light up, you can use it to ask him to return the money, so he will rush to the stall owner with such a confident after-sales service, and he will feel that the 65 yuan is worth it.
The stalls on the east side are full of miscellaneous items, but the things here are veritable old goods.
Basically, they are more practical daily necessities: broken clockwork spring hanging watches, old-fashioned crystal glasses, ivory cigarette holders, fountain pens, Western knives and forks, mahjong card boxes of mahogany, cork carved landscape paintings in small frames, and so on.
There are also many things that cannot be named, which may have been obsolete now, but were very practical in the past.
There are many varieties of goods, but the prices of things in this area are quite cheap, so the popularity here is the most popular in the whole thrift street.
Many old Koehlers with extraordinary eyes and tastes walked through the market, slowly observing, carefully selecting, and with their eyes, buying a few treasures at very low prices from a large pile of miscellaneous items that resembled waste.
For example, a "Parker" gold pen, or a Victorian era large dinner knife made by a famous factory, etc.
The grocery stalls grow larger and larger the further north they go, with Russian-style tea stoves, coarse porcelain sand water filters with blue foreign characters and patterns, enamel bathtubs, and cast-iron stoves.
Huan guessed that these things may have been removed from the bungalows where foreigners lived in the past, as well as strollers, baby iron cots, and so on.
The whole thrift market was strolled, and the things in my hands were also miscellaneous.
Needless to say, the fawn table lamp just now, and I also bought an arm rest of ivory carving.
What is the arm rest, I didn't understand it at first, but after the stall owner's introduction, I learned that the wall rest was a copywriting tool used by ancient Chinese literati to put their arms.
In addition to preventing ink from sticking to the sleeves, it is also very comfortable for the wrist when writing with the arm rest, especially when copying small print.
The arm rest, also known as the wrist pillow, is the same thing as the keyboard and mouse hand rest that everyone used decades later.
Happy and proud of the results, there is also a Wujin inkstone, the inkstone is carved with a beautiful color of the dragon cloud pattern, the shape looks very expensive.
Yishui inkstone, also known as Xi inkstone or Gyeonggi Wujin inkstone, is a very ancient stone inkstone, and is the ancestor of the four famous inkstones.
The initial technology of She Yan was that Xi Chao and his son moved to Shezhou, Anhui Province with the technology of Yishui Yan, and developed She Yan and Hui Mo in Shezhou.
As early as the Qianlong period, Wujin inkstone was known as an immortal treasure, and he was happy in the inconspicuous place of the inkstone, and sure enough, he found the mark of the office.
The price of such an inkstone is only 4 yuan, and she feels that she has picked up a big leak.
The rest of the painted flower pots with supports, brass self-striking bells, and Huanghuali pen holders are all small compared to this inkstone.
When he was about to go back to the guest house with his things, he saw a young man pulling a stall owner and pleading.
"Uncle, I beg you, you just accepted my things, right? I don't want the price to be too high, just a hundred dollars! ”
The stall owner said reluctantly: "Awen, it's not that Uncle doesn't help you, it's just that I can't take out so much money, I haven't opened for a few days, and I only have twenty yuan in my pocket, which is not enough for your father's surgery fee!" ”
"Uncle! Please help me figure it out! The young man's voice was crying, "My grandma is no longer here, if my grandma can't be saved, I really have no relatives!" ”
The stall owner gritted his teeth, took out a stack of fragmentary banknotes from his pocket and handed it to the young man, "You can take the 20 yuan to pay a deposit for your father first, and put the things here first, I will try to find a buyer and help you sell it!" ”
The young man didn't accept the money handed over by the stall owner, shook his head and said, "Forget it, Uncle, twenty yuan is not worth it, my father's illness can no longer be delayed, I still go to the black market to try my luck!" ”
"You kid, why are you disobedient! Where is the black market so good to go to? When the time comes, don't sell it for money, and even fold everything you bring in! The stall owner grabbed the boy's arm.
The young man gritted his teeth and burst out with a fierce force, "This is my father's only hope, if anyone dares to do sabotage, I will fight for this life, and no one will succeed!" ”
"Don't say stupid things! Your Abba is still lying in bed waiting for you to serve, if something happens to you, do you think your Abba will still be able to live? The stall owner scolded.
Wan Huan walked straight into the shed, "Comrade, what do you want to do, can you show me?" ”
"Yes, yes!" The boy nodded delightfully.
He was full of things in his hands, judging that this was a generous master, and if he could buy so many things, he would definitely not lack money to spend.
He opened the box and handed it to Huanhuan, inside was a pair of high-ice floating flower jade bracelets.
