Chapter 68: The Buddha Statue

It was just dawn when he returned to the modern world, and the fat man who had just come back did not go to Gu Yizhai immediately, but went to the hospital to see Sister Hong and Yang Yurui, Sister Hong still couldn't move, but the doctor said that the bones grew very well, after all, it was a high-level care that was paid for, and the care was very good.

The fat man brought them breakfast, watched them finish it, and then chatted with them a few words before coming out and walking to the antique street.

Anji went to class, and Ya Su was busy practicing the talent he had just gotten recently, so the fat man had to wander around alone, in fact, the most important thing was that Mr. Zhu Qi's Gu Yi Zhai could not be opened so early.

The burden of the antique street came out early to set up a stall, came early, before the shops on the street did not open, people who want to enter the antique street to find Taobao can only look for it on the stall to see if there is a leak to pick up, so this is also a golden time for the burden of the fast.

And the bored fat man, now on the street looking at the two people in front of the stall is in front of a vase in their hands, the curious fat man with the system to look at the vase in their hands, "high imitation Ming Xuande porcelain vase, exquisite workmanship of modern handicrafts"

A modern handicraft made the two men comment so enthusiastically that the fat man thought it amused, and could not help but laugh loudly, and although he held back in time, he was heard by the stall owner and the two young men who were commenting on the vase.

The two young people glared at him angrily, and the stall owner was very happy to have two fat sheep, but now there seemed to be a person who knew the goods, and he was anxious, afraid that this person who knew the goods did not understand the rules and talked nonsense, so he hurriedly came to greet him.

"See what's eye-catching? You just have to watch and see, and you can get started if you see it. "The stall owner almost said it, you can see it, you can see it, you can get started, but don't talk too much.

Because of the antique industry, the test is a vision, if you look at the imitation as real, that is your own mistake, when people sell things will not tell you for sure which dynasty which dynasty and which dynasty of things, the general stall owners will say that this is like which dynasty and which generation who has used the object, it is impossible to give you an accurate word, this is over you have to identify yourself, you feel that you can see it accurately, you will take it, if you feel that you can't see it, then put it down.

The fat man also knew a little bit of the rules, so he didn't say more, just glanced at the stall and was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly he was attracted by a line of purple words, this kind of purple words, he had only seen on the steel cannon.

"The appearance of the Buddha is extremely rough, but there is a lot of things inside, and under the mud tire on the outside is the precious essence, just like the diamond wrapped in mud."

It was a fifty or sixty centimeter tall Buddha statue, but it may have been put for too long, and the workmanship was too inferior, some of the paintings had been painted, and the face was a little blurry, and it was no longer possible to see what kind of Buddha statue it was, but looking at the degree of blackened smoke on it, it should be something flowing out of a private Buddhist hall.

The fat man pointed to the Buddha statue and asked, "What kind of Buddha is that?" ”

The stall owner turned his head to look at the Buddha statue that had been unrecognizable, in fact, he couldn't see what kind of Buddha it was, but when he went to the countryside to receive the goods, he spent a hundred yuan to recover the things, this turned out to be an old lady's Buddha statue at home, it seems that it has been smoked for several generations, as a result, the old lady died, and soon the village was demolished, her son did not believe in religion, and the face of this Buddha statue was not very clear, and he had to offer a good one!

It just so happened that the stall owner went to the village to collect things on the day they moved, so he asked the stall owner if he wanted it, and the stall owner looked at the traces of incense on it, and thought that he might be able to earn a melon or two dates if he brought it back, so he gave the man a hundred yuan to pull the Buddha statue back, and he didn't delve into what kind of Buddha it was.

But the fat man asked, and he had to say: "This is the Maitreya Buddha that I spent more than 5,000 years to receive in the old lady's house in the countryside that they have offered for several generations, you look at his belly, so big, you can see that it is Maitreya Buddha at a glance, and you can see the traces of incense on it, and you will know that after hundreds of years of incense offerings, it has been enshrined for hundreds of years, and there must be a spirit. ”

"Three hundred!" The fat man interrupted the stall owner's tirade, if he was allowed to continue, he would be able to go from now until the evening, this is the ability of the burdens, he eats with this mixed rice, so the fat man didn't say a word, he directly interrupted him and said the price.

"Three hundred? I said big brother, I bought it back for 5,000! You just earn me some, not much, five thousand five, let me earn a hard-earned money! The stall owner saw that the two young people were still discussing there, and he couldn't make a decision for a while, and he saw that the fat man was interested in the Buddha statue, so he planned to make this order first, and settle it in his pocket.

"Five hundred, like you who do the burden of fasting, I have a clear door, if you want to say here that you went to the countryside and bought it for 5,000 yuan, it may be fifty, even if it is more, it is not much, and if you give you five hundred, it is already considered a big profit for you." The fat man raised it a little more, negotiating the price is a compromise process, he asks for the price all over the sky, you pay back the money on the spot, and then slowly negotiate again, and finally compromise with each other, and then the business is done.

The stall owner knew that he had met a veteran, so he didn't say a word: "Okay then! The last bite of the real price, 1,000, more or less, can't be sold. ”

The fat man knew that it was impossible to press down any more when he heard the tone of the stall owner, but a thousand is a thousand! The two people next to him had already looked at the Buddha statue, although there was a conventional rule when buying and selling antiques, that is, when others were talking, they should not interject, which was very hateful.

He was afraid that the two young people on the side who didn't know how to pretend to understand didn't know the rules, and when the time came, he would intervene, although he might get it in the end, but the price would be much greater than now, so the current 1,000 is already the best price.

Because, the purple name proves the value of the things inside the clay womb of this Buddha statue.

The fat man went to the hospital today, and just took out the money and wanted to call the care of Sister Hong and their care to buy some good health supplements for Sister Hong and them, who knew that he had already given the money when he asked, so he still had 10,000 yuan in cash on his body, took out ten pieces of Grandpa Mao and handed them to the stall owner, and called a tricycle to pull up the Buddha statue and walk to the ancient Yizhai at the end of the street.

When they passed by the two young men, the words of contempt in the whispers of the two reached the ears of the fat man: "Spend a thousand yuan to buy a Buddha statue that has faded so badly that you can't see your face clearly, you are now!" I always think that pies may really fall from the sky, and after reading two books, I will learn from others to pick up the leaks, and it is my own fault to be killed by the pit. ”

The fat man looked strangely at the young man who was still looking at him with disdain as he spoke, then at the tall imitation vase in his hand, and suddenly smiled strangely at the young man, and walked away.

When the fat man came to Guyizhai, Mr. Zhu Qi had already opened the door and was drinking tea in the house, and the fat man greeted him from afar: "Mr. Zhu Qi, morning!" ”

Mr. Zhu Qi replied with a smile: "It's not early!" It's past ten o'clock, and it's time to have lunch in a while, but you, get up very early, and come to the antique street so early to Taobao! Looks like there's a catch? ”

Apparently he saw the Buddha statue on the tricycle behind the fat man.

The fat man picked up the Buddha statue behind the tricycle, paid for the tricycle to go, and then walked into the ancient Yizhai with the Buddha statue, the Buddha statue is very heavy, much heavier than the general clay statue, the clay statue of fifty or sixty centimeters high is almost more than 100 catties, the fat man is very strange, what will be in this, gold? Silver?

Or something else?

Mr. Zhu Qi watched the fat man hold the Buddha statue into the room, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, have you converted to Buddhism?" ”

The fat man gently put the Buddha statue on the ground, clapped his hands, and smiled at Mr. Zhu Qi: "Mr. Zhu Qi, what can you see if you give your palm eyes?" ”

Zhu Qi smiled, knowing that the fat man was testing him, so he put down the teacup in his hand and circled around the Buddha statue: "The thing is indeed an old thing, at least more than two hundred years old, but this mud is not good, and the shape is not very good, and the craftsman is not very clever, so the eyebrows are easy to fall, so it is now impossible to see what Buddha is, this is one, and second, although it is an old object, but the workmanship is rough, and because it comes out of a private Buddhist hall, there is no cultural relics value, So there is basically no room for its appreciation, how much did Mr. Chen spend on it? ”

"Seventh uncle, he spent a thousand yuan to buy such a Buddha statue with no collection value, what a big wrong." Before the fat man could answer, two young men had already come in outside the door to help him answer.

It's the two young people who want to buy a high imitation vase, oh! Not to buy it, but to buy it, and one of the young men is now holding it carefully!

When the fat man heard that the two young men were Mr. Zhu Qi's juniors, he didn't get angry, but just looked at the vase that had just been put on the table with a strange face, and didn't speak.

Mr. Zhu Qi saw the two young men and responded: "Why did you come so early, didn't the eldest brother and the second brother say that you were going to the capital to play for a few days before coming?" Also, this Mr. Chen is my friend, don't talk nonsense. ”

"I asked my eldest brother to come, when I pulled my eldest brother out, my uncle instructed me to come to Uncle Seventh earlier, it is important to learn things from Uncle Seven, there is nothing interesting in the capital, I have played it when I was a child before." A young man who was obviously a little smaller said.

"I'm not talking nonsense! That Buddha statue is really wronged for spending a thousand! I'm not wrong, it's like me, I found a treasure as soon as I came! The older young man said a little smugly.

Zhu Qi didn't speak, just frowned and looked at the Buddha statue carefully, the fat man could spend a thousand yuan to buy such a clay statue, it must have his reason, so he squatted down and looked at it carefully, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything worth noting, and even took a magnifying glass, he couldn't see anything strange.

I had to stand up, smile at the fat man and say, "Mr. Chen, I'm afraid I'm old and I can't see anything strange." ”
