102 90,000 yuan glass species [third update]
At this time, the streets were far from being as full of high-rise buildings as in later generations, but many landmark buildings in later generations were constantly being built or had not yet been built.
In the shops on the street, pop songs belonging to this era are played.
It gives a sense of unreality.
"Where do you want to go?"
Jian Zhihong asked the two.
"Whatever, I can do it. Yang Mu let the father and son make up their minds.
"Then let's go to the glaze factory first, it's not far from here, this kid has so much jade wool on him, but he can go there to exchange some money." β
Jian Zhihong suggested.
"Okay. β
Jian Xingdao naturally had no opinion, took his parents out and paid the bills by himself, which was something he had thought about for a long time.
The group wandered to Liulichang, the largest antique and jade market in the area at the time.
When they arrived at the place, it was only ten o'clock, and the three of them were not in a hurry, but went shopping first, because of the different clothes, many people regarded a family of three as overseas Chinese returnees, and they were not enthusiastic.
"The magnetic pillow of Tang Zong, the Lan Pavilion of Wang Sheng, the big money of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Yuan Datou of the Republic of China, and the founding chairman of the country...... Twenty-one, front, front...... No, don't buy it! let's, let's let, the people in the back, look, can't see it......"
The stumbling words caused a burst of laughter, and Jian Xingdao heard this familiar voice and squeezed into the crowd.
With a crooked neck and crooked mouth, he is still an old man in a shabby camouflage uniform, wearing an octagonal Red Army cap, with a badge pinned to his chest, a portrait of the chairman, and various medals, holding a cane made of bullet casings in his hand and pointing at the tourists in front of him.
The stalls are still painted with broken posters with portraits of the chairman, teapots without lids, small emerald gourds, jade-like stones, hookahs, snuff bottles......
"Little, young man...... You, you've been watching it for five minutes, no, don't buy it and leave, don't, don't delay me doing business......"
"Hahaha!"
This caused everyone to laugh again, and the young man was not annoyed, laughed twice, got up and gave way.
There was also a counteroffer next to him, "I want this silver dollar, ten yuan." β
"Two, twenty! No, no bargaining. β
After saying that, he took out half of the uneaten cucumber from his jacket pocket, took a bite and put it back.
Fixing his body and looking at this old guy, Jian Xingdao seemed to have returned to the afterlife, his appearance had not changed in the slightest, could it be that this old man had returned from the future to the present like himself?
"Huh, this is ......."
The snare drum let out an exclamation.
Now that his parents are here, Jian Xingdao is not good at asking, and when he is in a hurry, the sound of the small drum sounded in his head, "What do you want to ask to communicate with me in your mind, you don't have to say it, but now, you hurry up and buy the candle on the stall." β
And this trick?
But what is that candle?
"Conjuring Candle, whether your parents can be resurrected in the future depends on it!"
Conjuring Candles!
Jian Xingdao remembered that in the old bridge in the future, he had seen half a candle, but the stammering uncle said that the candles were not sold, but only sent.
Buy a plaque and get a candle.
But now he doesn't have any money on him, can you try taking pictures?
"This guy dares to sell funeral plaques, and it's really cheap, but I'm afraid it won't have an effect if I ingest it. β
Jian Xingdao didn't dare to take this kind of risk, but fortunately, he had jade on his body, as long as he sold it, it was money, and he immediately got out of the crowd, and when he found his parents, he went to sell jade materials.
Liulichang this place, antique jade is basically halved, so it is very easy to find a jade shop, reform and opening up has passed more than ten years, so there are more and more rich people, and this time is the era of those bosses to show off their wealth, although the thick gold chain is still worn, but in Yanjing has become synonymous with nouveau riche.
The saying of the Shengshi collection began to rise gradually, because many rich bosses like to come to the glaze factory to buy some antique jade to fill the faΓ§ade.
Jade is not like antiques that often encounter fakes, and the counterfeiting army in this era is not yet an establishment, so the jade side is more popular than the antique side.
You can see many fur-clad ladies accompanied by suits and leather shoes, and pot-bellied bosses choose jade styles together.
Because he was in a hurry, Jian Xingdao directly found a store with a cutting machine, selected a piece of material from the picture before entering, and then walked directly into the door with a piece of watermelon-sized material, put the material on the ground, and shouted: "The boss is not here!"
The temperament of the nouveau riche is undoubtedly revealed.
It was so loud that it caught the attention of everyone in the store.
The clothes of the three of them made the employees in the store a little suspicious, but they were not rude, and one of the employees of Farr came out and asked cautiously, "This handsome guy, who are you?"
"Sell jade!"
Jian Xing replied.
"We don't buy jade materials separately here, we have a special purchase channel, so ......"
"The best glass species, are you sure you don't cut it open and see before deciding?"
"We ......"
The employee wanted to say something, but was interrupted, and from the beginning of entering the door, an old man who had been sitting in the corner drinking tea stood up, walked to the wool, looked at the black stone on the ground, looked at it non-stop, and finally even brought reading glasses, picked up the stone, walked to the door, stood in the sun, and kept looking.
"Little brother, how are you going to sell this piece of material?"
"You make a price, I just need cash!"
Now the most important thing is to buy the Conjuring Candle, everything else is secondary.
"If it's really like you said, it's glass, and the cash in our store is far behind. β
"How much cash do you have in the store right now?"
The old man looked back at the clerk, and then inside a counter, a young man in black overalls returned to this question, "Old Zheng, since it has not been long since it has just started business, the cash in our store is less than 100,000. β
"This ......"
Old Zheng groaned.
"Ninety thousand, this stone belongs to you!"
90,000 yuan to buy a glass seed the size of a watermelon?
Zheng Lao also groaned, although with his experience, it looks like there is a stock in this piece of wool, but if you don't cut it, you will never know whether it is gold and jade or ruined inside.
Especially Jian Xingdao's low-price fire sale posture made him hesitate even more.
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Jian Xingdao said: "In this way, if you untie it and take a look, if there is goods in it, the price of more than 90,000 yuan, I only need 90,000, if it can't be exceeded, you set the price, I will never counteroffer!"
Jian Xingdao said so, as a businessman, of course Zheng Lao was happy to accept it, and immediately asked people to power up the cutting machine, intending to solve the stone himself.
When the shopkeepers in the store saw this posture, they all gathered around.
