Chapter 470: Are You Eating Jinkola?
All day today, Mao Zi didn't come to the clothing store to find Gao Mingcheng, because he was going to Yangcheng tomorrow, so in the evening, Gao Mingcheng took the initiative to find Mao Zi.
He knew Maozi's home, and in the past, he also met a monkey, who was wearing an old dusty coat and carrying on his shoulders some wood from the construction site, which was broken and could no longer be used, but could be used to make a fire.
When the monkey saw Gao Mingcheng, the whole person flinched suddenly, not daring to look directly at Gao Mingcheng.
Since that incident, the monkey has also changed his mind, no longer messing around like before, but honestly finding a construction site, moving bricks and cement in the construction site every day.
This year, at the national level, the economic development is not good, but with the reform and opening up, there are always people who make money first, so the number of people who build houses is increasing day by day.
Not to mention the county, even in the more affluent villages, people began to be enthusiastic about building houses, and by the end of the 90s, except for a few poor households, most of the villagers would build new houses.
Seeing the monkey hiding by himself, Gao Mingcheng didn't care, for the sake of the monkey's family, he had already let him go.
Gao Mingcheng came to Maozi's house, and the two Maozi brothers were sitting at the door eating dinner.
Because there are no wires, it is inconvenient to light candles and cook at night, so they eat relatively early.
When Mao Zi saw Gao Mingcheng coming, he immediately stood up, hurriedly put down the bowl, raised his hand to wipe the rice at the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Mingcheng, you are here, hurry, please take a seat!" ”
Maozi's younger brother sat quietly on the stool, glanced at Gao Mingcheng with a pair of innocent eyes, and then continued to eat the rice in the bowl.
He has a problem with his IQ, and although he is stunned, he is very quiet and doesn't cause much trouble.
"I heard that you have received some more goods, I'll take a look." Gao Mingcheng said.
"Hey, then you wait, I'll show it to you." Maozi said with a smile on his face, quickly ran back to the house, and took out a baggage.
It was a bag made of old sheets, colorful with a few small holes.
Maozi placed the burden on the ground and opened it.
"Look, that's what I've received these days!" Mao Zi pointed to the miscellaneous things, and looked at Gao Mingcheng with a nervous expression, hoping that Gao Mingcheng could buy them all.
Mao Zi actually didn't have the ability to distinguish antiques, he didn't read any books, and there was no relevant teacher to take him to get started.
But he has been in the market since he was a child, and he has heard many short stories from parents, and he has seen many houses and people in the streets and alleys.
When he knew that shelf beds could be sold for money, and ancient coins could be sold for money, he had a general concept, that is, everything in the past could be sold for money!
This time, he used his strengths and received some bits and pieces.
He has a small capital, so he doesn't receive many things, and many of them are not in good condition, the only advantage is that those things do look some years old.
Gao Mingcheng squatted on the ground and looked at the pile of things carefully.
Although it was evening, there was enough light outside the house to see all the details.
In that pile of bits and pieces, Gao Mingcheng took a fancy to a bowl at a glance, Gao Mingcheng picked up the bowl, touched the mouth of the bowl, and said, "This bowl has been baked?" ”
"Yes, I heard that it was a bowl from a long time ago, and I thought it was okay, so I accepted it. Brother Mingcheng, do you want this bowl? Mao Zi stared at Gao Mingcheng tightly.
Gao Mingcheng was not in a hurry to speak, but carefully looked at the bottom of the bowl.
For porcelain antiques, the bottom is a very important identification mark.
However, Gao Mingcheng looked at the bottom and knew that this porcelain bowl was from a private kiln, not an official kiln, because it only had a double circle at the bottom of the bowl without words, and the porcelain tire and pattern were also rough and sloppy.
But what Gao Mingcheng cares about is that the baking bowl technique is good.
Gao Mingcheng said: "This bowl is most likely from the Qing Dynasty, but it comes from a private kiln, the workmanship is average, and it has been damaged, so it is not very valuable." ”
When Mao Zi heard that it was worthless, the expression on his face was a little broken, but he still asked studiously: "What is a folk kiln?" ”
So Gao Mingcheng gave him a science popularization of the difference between the private kiln and the official kiln.
Generally speaking, the official kiln models are more refined, delicate, fine and moist than the private kiln models, while the private kiln models are mostly rough and sloppy.
This is also very understandable, the official kiln is produced for the imperial court, while the private kiln is a private sale, and the products are uneven.
Gao Mingcheng put down the bowl and continued to look at others.
In this pile of things, there are also a few ancient coins and a Yuan Datou, as well as a pile of rusty locks, which look to have been removed from some boxes and wardrobes.
In addition, there are several stones with strange shapes.
Gao Mingcheng picked up the stone and played with it, he didn't study minerals, but he knew that some strange stones in good condition could also be sold for a lot of money.
"These stones...... Where did you get that? Gao Mingcheng asked.
Maozi smiled embarrassedly and said, "I exchanged the candy for some children." I look pretty good, can I sell it for money? ”
"It depends on the buyer, and if someone likes it, they are willing to pay for it."
Gao Mingcheng had already finished reading all the things and said: "The pile of things you collected, there are not many of them of value, if you want to make a lot of money, you have to find a way to receive more and better things." ”
Mao Zi panicked, these things won't all be smashed in his hands, right?
He stared at the pile, flustered.
His cost is small, so his ability to resist risks is also poor.
Gao Mingcheng glanced at Mao Zi and his younger brother, and said: "Although these things are not valuable, they can also be collected, uh, this Yuan Datou is in good condition, and it can be worth a little money." ”
Maozi's Yuan Datou was cast in the tenth year of the Republic of China, and there are horizontal dots on the edge of Yuan's round teeth, which is a common silver dollar on the market, so even in later generations, the price is not high.
But in the end, it is a silver dollar, and it has a certain collection value, and it is not worried about selling in the antique market.
Yuan Datou weighs seven coins and two cents, which accounts for nine silver and nine copper, and seven coins and two cents are about 26.86 grams, and now the silver price is about five cents and one gram, according to the weight, the sterling silver is worth fourteen pieces, but it also contains ten percent of the copper, and the copper price is cheaper than the silver price.
However, because of the commemorative value of the collection, the market price will be at a premium, so Gao Mingcheng paid fifteen yuan to accept it.
When Mao Zi heard this price, his tense heart relaxed slightly. This piece of Yuan Datou was exchanged by him from a village for ten yuan from an old woman.
Now that he can earn an extra five dollars, he is satisfied.
As for the rest, Gao Mingcheng also made a round in one go, but the price was not very high, but for Maozi, it was still earned.
After Maozi got the money, he looked extremely satisfied.
Gao Mingcheng said: "You continue to collect, try to collect some good quality." In some villages, there have been jinshi, lifters, and talents in the past, and you have also gone for a walk, and maybe there are some good ink ingots, inkstones, and other things left. It was worth a lot of money, and there were pictures drawn by people in the past, and beautiful bottles and jars. ”
"Hey, okay." Mao Zi nodded again and again.
Seeing that Gao Mingcheng was about to leave with his things, he hurriedly said, "Brother Mingcheng go slowly." ”
At this time, Brother Maozi, who had already finished eating, suddenly said to Gao Mingcheng: "Brother Mingcheng go slowly." ”
He was obviously learning from his brother, two brothers, and even the smile on his face was about the same.
Gao Mingcheng also showed a smile and waved goodbye to their brother: "Goodbye." ”
He carried a bag of things and strode towards his home.
When I got home, it was just in time for dinner.
Unlike Maozi's family, their family will eat a little later, and sometimes customers will come temporarily, so they may eat even later.
"Second brother, what did you receive?" Gao Shufang looked curiously at the burden that Gao Mingcheng brought back.
Gao Mingcheng didn't hide it, and opened it in public.
As a result, Gao Shufang saw that it was all broken copper and iron, and she couldn't help pouting, and said with a face full of disbelief: "Second brother, these broken things, someone really spends money to buy them?" ”
It's true that the things recovered are not very valuable, but there is still some distance from the word tattered!
Gao Mingcheng didn't want to pay attention to Gao Shufang, although this sister worked hard to learn to read and read in order to marry well, her eyesight in other aspects did not increase much.
But this is normal, if it weren't for the experience of his previous life, Gao Mingcheng wouldn't know so much.
He explained two sentences briefly, but Zhang Jinling looked at the pile of things thoughtfully.
After eating, she still decided to talk to Gao Mingcheng.
"My mother's family also has a few of those coins, but I don't know if they're worth it." Zhang Jinling told Gao Mingcheng that a long time ago, someone in their village dug up a jar, and the jar was full of that kind of coin, and later some people said that the former landlord had buried it there.
Later, those coins were divided among the people in the village, and Zhang Jinling's family also had seven or eight coins.
After Gao Mingcheng heard about this, he was a little surprised, he had never heard of this matter in his previous life.
"I'm going to Yangcheng tomorrow, either you can go back and bring it to me tomorrow, or when I come back from Yangcheng, we will go to the village to have a look." Gao Mingcheng said.
It's not impossible to dig up a buried coin from the ground like this.
In the past, when there was a war or a family was in trouble, it was common to bury copper coins that were inconvenient to carry in the ground and flee with only gold and silver.
In ancient times, the coins circulating on the market were mainly copper coins, but there were many copper coins, but they were very heavy, and it was extremely inconvenient to carry them out.
"I'll get it when I have time!" Zhang Jinling hurriedly said, she felt that Gao Mingcheng was very busy all day long, and she didn't dare to let him run in person.
As for himself, there is nothing big about it day by day, so it is better to go back to his parents' house to see his relatives.
"Okay." Gao Mingcheng nodded.
After the conversation, Gao Mingcheng went upstairs to wash up first.
Tomorrow he is going to Yangcheng, and he has to prepare all the things he wants to bring to Yangcheng to sell, such as honey, antiques, etc.
This time, there are no particularly valuable antiques, and there are no bezoars, but there are more than 600 catties of honey, which can be sold for a lot of money.
This night, many beauties refused to let Gao Mingcheng come to Hu, saying that they wanted him to recuperate.
Gao Mingcheng said: "Raising elite animals is to fight again for glory!" ”
Many beauties understood the meaning of the words, and a blush appeared on their cheeks.
……
Early the next morning, after Gao Mingcheng had breakfast, he said goodbye to his family, drove a tractor, and headed towards the transportation company.
When you arrive, it's the same old process, first checking the condition of the vehicle, and then loading your own goods into the car.
The goods on this car are all porcelain, which is also Fan Chengyao's, and it was deliberately not full when it was loaded, just to leave a part of the place for honey.
"Brother Xiao, I'm leaving!" Gao Mingcheng waved goodbye to Xiao Jinfeng under him.
Xiao Jinfeng also waved goodbye to him and said, "Have a good trip!" ”
Gao Mingcheng stepped on the accelerator, held the steering wheel, drove the car away from the parking lot of the transportation company, and followed the route that had been walked dozens of times.
Driving on the road, the scenery on both sides kept receding, and the wind blew in from the window, blowing Gao Mingcheng's hair backwards.
Gao Mingcheng touched the back of his head and thought, I have to get a haircut!
Okay, when you get to Yangcheng, go get a trendy haircut!
Gao Mingcheng hummed a song, relaxed and happy all the way.
When I arrived in Yangcheng, it was already the second day.
Before Gao Mingcheng set off, he greeted Fan Chengyao, so Fan Chengyao counted the time and distance, and knew the approximate arrival time of Gao Mingcheng.
When Gao Mingcheng got out of the car, he saw Fan Licheng at a glance.
I haven't seen him for more than a month, and Gao Mingcheng just feels that Fan Li has grown a lot taller.
He touched Fan Licheng's head and said with a smile: "Did you eat Jin Kela?" I've grown a lot taller all of a sudden! ”
"What is Kimkela? I didn't eat it! But I did grow taller! Fan Licheng laughed, and he was in a good mood.
Boys develop later than girls, and at this time, Fan Chengyao began to develop.
Because he is a skipping student, all the female classmates in the class are taller than him, which makes Fan Licheng a little unhappy.
Now that he has finally begun to grow taller, even if he is not as tall as those female classmates, he is very happy in his heart.
He thought that when school started, the classmates would definitely be surprised.
Gao Mingcheng smiled: "Haha, height is genetic, your parents are both good height, as long as you eat nutritious and exercise, you can't be short!" ”
At the mention of exercising, Fan Licheng's face collapsed.
He took Gao Mingcheng's hand, gave him a look, and motioned for him to step aside to speak. Gao Mingcheng glanced at Fan Chengyao next to him before handing Fan Licheng an inquiring look.
Fan Chengyao saw their small movements next to him and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
He took the initiative to speak: "Go and speak, there are workers unloading the goods!" As for your antiques, we'll talk about it later. ”
Boss Fan spoke, Gao Mingcheng had no worries, and went to a secluded place next to Fan Licheng to talk.
"What's wrong?" Gao Mingcheng asked, and he could see that Fan Licheng had something on his mind.
Fan Licheng sighed like an adult, and said faintly: "When I was in the capital, I was kidnapped. ”
Gao Mingcheng's heart jumped, and he hurriedly looked Fan Licheng up and down to confirm that he had not lost parts all over his body, so he was relieved.
"What's going on? You're not hurt, are you? Gao Mingcheng asked with concern.
Fan Licheng felt Gao Mingcheng's concern and was in a good mood, he shook his head and said, "I'm fine, the day after I was kidnapped, I ran out by myself." ”
Fan Licheng was quite emotional.
When they were in Xiangjiang, due to the chaos in the market, there were many gangsters and lone wolves, so the children of some rich people became important targets for their kidnapping and ransom.
Many people in his stepfather's family have been kidnapped, and when his mother first took him to Xiangjiang, she asked someone to train him on how to deal with kidnapping, so as to ensure that he was not harmed in the process of kidnapping.
Because most of the kidnappers are seeking money.
And once he is kidnapped, his mother will definitely be willing to pay for ransom.
It's just that I didn't expect that he had not been kidnapped once in Xiangjiang, and the reason was very realistic, that is, those people thought that he was just his stepfather's stepson, and there was no point in kidnapping!
However, when he went to the capital to buy a house this time, he was kidnapped by a group of thugs!
In the future, when I talk to those people in my stepfather's family, I will also have a common language! Fan Licheng thought bitterly.
He told Gao Mingcheng about the kidnapping process, and then sighed faintly: "After we came back from the capital, my mother invited a boxer from Foshan to teach me boxing. (End of chapter)
