Chapter 166: Gong Zhu Antique Shop
Yun Tombsheng, who was very curious, walked in, looked at the bronze sculpture, and Yun Tombsheng said to the shopkeeper: "What is this?" It's weird. ”
As soon as the man who looked like a literati saw that Yun Tombsheng was interested in the sculpture, he immediately walked over from Han Di's house and explained to Yun Tombsheng: "The guest officer has good eyesight, this is an ancient object of more than a thousand years, you see how perfect this composition is, look at the craftsmanship of this craftsman, you look at the eyes of this big snake, as if it can speak, is it lifelike?" ”
"It's really good." Yun Tombsheng nodded.
The literati's eyes suddenly lit up, the eyesight of people who do antique business is naturally not bad, Yun Tombsheng's clothes he can still see that they are expensive and cheap, and he is obviously a master who is not bad for money, if he can sell this money-losing sculpture that has been in his hands for many years, so he asked tentatively: "Do you want to take that son back to collect?" ”
"How much?" Yun Tombsheng blew the dust on the sculpture, and the giant snake sculpture with wings had been in this corner for an unknown amount of time.
The down-whelmed man looked at Yun Tombsheng's appearance and clothes again, gritted his teeth and said, "One price, three hundred taels of silver." ”
"Cut, fool."
Yun Tombsheng smiled disdainfully, turned his head and looked around, no longer looking at the sculpture.
The down-and-out shopkeeper named Xiao Gongzhu was suddenly anxious, this sculpture was really a big loss when he bought it back then, the sculpture was a treasure dug out of the grave, Xiao Gongzhu was fascinated the moment he saw it, the form of this sculpture was too perfect.
But at that time, I only looked at the structure and material, and forgot that this strange form did not meet the aesthetics of most people, so it has not been sold, and the person who sold it to himself at that time was very happy to take the fifty taels he handed over, and he also felt that he had picked up the cheap, thinking that the person was a fool, and such a good thing was sold for fifty taels, but he didn't expect that he was the fool.
In the past few years of sales, Xiao Gongzhu gradually found that this evil thing is not profitable, and even the capital preservation is unrealistic, and many customers are blunt, this long weird thing is not willing to be given away in vain.
Today, seeing Yun Tombsheng's gorgeous clothes, so he dared to raise the price, looking at Yun Tombsheng's expression, Xiao Gongzhu felt that he had miscalculated, this young man is indeed rich, but he is not stupid.
Xiao Gongzhu has not been able to sell it for so many years, so gradually he is no longer ready to make money, thinking that it is good to dispose of a little bit of capital, even if it is a loss, it doesn't matter, so he chased after Yun Tombsheng and asked, "Then what price do you think you can take away?" ”
The young man stretched out two fingers, "No one will buy this thing at all, look at this posture, who wants to put this at home?" Twenty taels, if you want to sell it, I'll take it away, and if you don't want to sell it, forget it. ”
"Childe, your price is too unsuitable, you are also a wealthy family, you also know the price of this material and this workmanship." Xiao Gongzhu swallowed dryly.
Yun Tombsheng stretched out his hand and picked up an inkstone to play with, and said to Xiao Gongzhu, who came to his side: "You're right, if you put aside the meaning, it's really not a cheap thing, but look at it, what does this sculpture express?" It's been targeted by poisonous snakes, who wants this? If I don't see the workmanship as good, you don't want to give it away for nothing. ”
"How about this, a little more, a little more? I won't hide it from you, to tell you the truth, I bought it for fifty taels, which is a loss, but for a small business, a loss of thirty taels is still too much. After saying that, the downcast man stretched out four fingers.
Seeing that Xiao Gongzhu's expression didn't seem to be fake, the young man in white squinted his eyes and said, "Forty taels? ”
The down-and-out scribe nodded hurriedly, and said with a bitter face: "Yes, I lost ten taels of money, and I didn't have it before eating, ten taels of silver is 10,000 yuan, and I only have a few dollars for this meal, even if it is 20 yuan a day, 200 yuan for ten days, and 2,000 yuan for 100 days, which is two taels, this loss is enough for me to eat for a year." ”
"How much you lose is your business, which means that your vision is not good, but he is worth twenty taels and I will pay forty taels, which means that I have lost money." The boy shook his head.
The scribe reached out and took the small bell that Handi Mansion had taken care of and hung it on the big snake, "This bell was given to you, what do you think, Childe?" ”
Yun Tombsheng looked at it, and finally stopped his eyes on a hollow gourd, stretched out his hand and took it, the gourd was not a real gourd, it was a jade gourd, the young man took the gourd and said to the shopkeeper: "Plus this gourd, a total of forty taels, if you want to, I will take it, if you don't want to, forget it." ”
"Childe, this is really ......" Xiao Gongzhu shook his head in embarrassment.
The young man in white shook his head, and slapped the small gourd in his hand twice, "Forty taels, you'd better think clearly, if you lose a little, you will lose a little, but at least the money is in your hand, otherwise you can't sell these things in your hands, wouldn't it be equivalent to the money being lost?" If you are willing to sell, at least the circle will be drifting. ”
The shopkeeper named Xiao Gongzhu frowned, obviously very difficult to choose, Yun Tombsheng couldn't help but smile and said: "You are interesting, look at what you sell, the gourd means Fulu, your gourd is empty, it means that you can't keep Fulu, you are just buying some money stuff that no one wants." ”
Xiao Gongzhu's face turned pale suddenly, or anyone Yun Tombsheng said, until now he still hasn't figured out why this jade gourd is so beautiful but no one wants to buy it, so it seems that he has entered a money-losing goods again, it is rare to meet such a person who doesn't mind is willing to spend money to buy it, the man said bitterly: "Okay, okay, you filled in two more things, forty-five taels, it's really not expensive." ”
Yun Tombsheng turned his head and left, Xiao Gongzhu, the shopkeeper of Gongzhu's antique shop, hurriedly trotted and grabbed Yun Tombsheng, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, okay, forty taels, just forty taels." ”
The young man took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his arms, and the shopkeeper shook his head in embarrassment after seeing it, "I can't find this, and I don't have time to go to the money bank to change money." ”
"That's it, you send this thing to Shui Yuntian at night, and I'm going to give you cash."
The shopkeeper of the antique shop was stunned for a moment, and he didn't dare to confirm: "You are the eldest prince of Yun?" ”
Yun Tombsheng nodded and was about to leave, when the shopkeeper called out to him, "Wait, I heard that the eldest prince of Yun has a lot of money, and I still have a good east here to show the eldest prince, this is stored here by others, but I haven't found a suitable buyer, and I don't dare to take it out easily." ”
"What's that?" Yun Tombsheng was a little curious.
It's just that the shopkeeper is about to close the door, Yun Tombsheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the door is full of my friends, and I will be responsible if the secret of your thing is leaked." ”
Xiao Gongzhu hesitated for a moment, looked at Yun Tombsheng before nodding heavily, then reached out and lifted the table slightly, took out the irregular wooden block that cushioned the table leg from under the table leg, and after breaking it open, the small round ball revealed in it was handed to Yun Tombsheng.
Yun Tombsheng smiled while taking the small round ball, "You hide it very casually, you can't find ghosts." ”
"It's dark under the lights, the strength of the small one is not enough, so I have to be cautious and make the boy laugh." Xiao Gongzhu smiled a little embarrassedly.
After Yun Tombsheng took the small bead in his hand, he looked at it roughly and found nothing abnormal, and Xiao Gongzhu reminded on the side: "Childe, you can inject a little bit of your internal force and try it." ”
The young man in white was a little cautious, although the small round ball in his hand looked ordinary, but the weight in his hand was not light, and it seemed to be a living thing, and after thinking about it again, he injected a little breath into it.
The round ball in Yun Tombsheng's hand changed color slightly in the eyes of the few people who came over, and just as everyone wanted to see what it was, Yun Tombsheng suddenly stopped and continued to inject internal force into it, and the small round bead changed back to its original black and ordinary appearance.
"What's the price?"
Xiao Gongzhu licked his lips, "I don't know what this is, so I don't dare to ask for too much price, 100,000 taels." ”
Yun Tombsheng was happy this time, without any objection, nodded and said, "Okay, but I don't have so much money on me, you can take the money together when you send things over tonight." ”
The shopkeeper of the Gongzhu antique shop hugged his fists and said, "Yun Gongzi is refreshing." ”
"Here you go, bring it to me at night." Yun Tombsheng stretched out his hand to hand over the ball, but was stopped by a man who looked like a down-and-out literati, "Yun Gongzi take it first, I can trust Gongzi's person, and I will go directly to get the money when I send things tonight." ”
Yun Tombsheng nodded, said no more, reached out and hugged his fist and said goodbye.
After a group of people walked out of the store, Li Yu came up and said, "Hey, Tomb Sheng, what the hell is this?" ”
"You'll know if you inject the internal force into it yourself." The young man in white shook his head and handed over the thing, but Li Yu injected a lot of internal force into it after taking it, but the black ball that was about the size of a pigeon's egg did not change at all.
"What's going on?" After Yun Tombsheng took it back, he injected another internal force, maybe he had just touched it, so the ball changed color slightly, but it was very light and light.
Several people took turns to get started, but no one had the ability to make this black ball react again, even if Yun Tombsheng started by himself, it didn't have any effect, Zhao Hongda frowned and said, "It shouldn't be the pit of the shopkeeper, right?" ”
Yun Tombsheng shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, I just found that the aura inside this one is very strange, I feel that it should be an egg, and something may have hatched in it, but I feel that the thing in this one may have died a long time ago, it is a dead fetus." ”
"What's that? Are you going to smash it open and take a look? "Jin Dingfa is simple and refreshing.
There was no one on Zhanghua Road at noon, Yun Tombsheng shook his head, "I'll take it back and look at it, maybe I can really hatch something." ”
"No matter how you look at this, it's not a normal thing, is it dangerous to see what is inside?" Han Difu scooped up the small black ball from the palm of Yun Tombsheng's hand and looked at it in the sun, but the black ball was not transparent at all.
Yun Tombsheng looked around, "Let's talk about it then, put it in the cast iron shop, and throw it into the molten iron if it is in danger, I don't believe that it can't be burned to death." ”
After a few people were full of food and drink, Li Yu asked Yun Tombsheng, "Didn't you say that you were going to Qi'an Temple to find someone?" How did you go east? ”
Yun Tombsheng, who was holding the ball in his hand and throwing it around, pointed in the direction, "There is a family there who owes me a thousand taels, I will go to ask for a debt, and by the way, see how his house is, whether it is worth my purchase." ”
"You're going to start a family business here?" Zhao Hongda walked under the willow tree and looked at the boat gently swaying with the flowing water on the lake.
Yun Tombsheng nodded, "It's not convenient to have a place to live, and the house over there is a little small, there are only four rooms in total, and it's almost the same as a temporary resting place, otherwise there will be nowhere to live for any friend." ”
