Chapter 236: Baby
Zhao Yuan asked for Xing Hong's bank account and transferred money through the online banking app on his mobile phone. Within a few minutes, Xing Hong received a text message that 10,000 yuan had arrived.
"The money has arrived, right? I can take my things and leave, right?" Zhao Yuan asked.
Xing Hong replied with a sad face: "But ...... OK. ”
In my heart, I was complaining: I want to say no, but I don't have the guts.
Zhao Yuan walked up, directly took a roll of cloth on the table, wrapped up all the antiques, and took it away directly.
Seeing his rough approach, Yang Zi felt a heartache and couldn't help shouting: "Can't you be gentle? There are still two pieces of porcelain in it, it would be a pity if it was broken and broken." ”
Zhao Yuan said with a smile: "There's nothing to be sorry about, those two pieces of porcelain are not worth anything at all, they are all imitations." ”
Hearing this, Xing Hong's old face turned red, and he couldn't help muttering: "I didn't expect this kid to be an expert, no wonder the price is so accurate." Hey, why didn't I see it earlier? ”
Eight people and one cat quickly got out of the antique market, did not rush back to the hotel, but found a teahouse nearby, asked for a small hall, and closed the door after entering.
Yang Zi was still complaining: "Xiao Yuanzi, Xiao Yuanzi, you said that you have worked hard to save a sum of money, why did you use it to buy these things? That's 10,000 yuan! How much labor do you have to fight to earn it back?"
Wu Yan's focus was different, and he asked curiously: "Third brother, what is your situation?
You must know that more than a month ago, Zhao Yuan was still having a headache for his daily meal money, so he could only eat porridge, steamed buns and pickles, and he was reluctant to touch the meat. But now, he actually took out 10,000 yuan at once, and it was natural for Wu Yan to be surprised.
"You guessed it, I've been making a windfall lately. Some time ago, in the antique street of Rongcheng, I bought a stone for a few hundred yuan, and guess what? I cut out a good jade! I sold it for more than 200,000 yuan!"
Zhao Yuan told his previous experience of gambling on stones, but he only lowered the price of buying and selling stones. He didn't mean to deceive, he just told the real price, he had to frighten these people, and maybe he would be suspected of mental problems......
Everyone gasped, and they were all shocked by this 'huge amount of money': "What? A few hundred yuan of stones was sold for 200,000 yuan? My God, this is a hundredfold profit! No, you have to treat yourself!"
Zhao Yuan smiled and agreed: "Okay, no problem, I'll invite you to eat duck blood vermicelli soup later." ”
After laughing a few words, Liu Zhu set his eyes on the antiques wrapped in cloth, and asked expectantly: "Third child, you spend 10,000 yuan to buy these things, is it because there are valuable treasures hidden in them?"
"The baby is there, I don't know if it's worth it. Zhao Yuan opened the cloth and took out a round ball from it.
The ball was slightly larger than a fist, barely able to be grasped with one hand, and it looked like it was forged in brass, with horizontal and vertical lines on it, and I don't know what it was used for.
"This copper ball is a baby?" Liu Zhu frowned and asked, this is too different from the treasure he imagined.
"That's right. Zhao Yuan nodded.
In Xing Hong's antique stall, in addition to the copper bell that was swallowed by the white cat, only this copper ball contains Qi.
Yang Zi took the copper ball, followed Lin Xue and looked at them curiously, then shook his head and said, "It really doesn't look like a baby." ”
"What the hell is this?, a projectile from an ancient cannon?" Wu Yan guessed with his mind wide open.
Wang Rongfeng immediately denied it: "I remember that the ancient projectile should be cast iron or lead bullets, right? Copper was money in ancient times, and using money to cast projectiles to smash people is too rich, right?"
Wu Yan was not happy, and asked rhetorically, "Then what do you say it is?"
"I don't recognize it. Wang Rongfeng shook his head.
In the end, Zhao Yuan gave the answer: "This is the spirit bead in the mouth of the gatekeeper lion!"
Wu Yan was stunned: "Keeper Lion? What is that? I've only heard of the goalkeeper." ”
"Stupid. Liu Zhu raised his hand and patted him on the head, "You don't know the doorkeeper lion? ”
Lin Xue said: "It really looks like the beads in the mouth of the gatekeeper lion, but I remember that most of those beads are stone, right? ”
Yang Zi said: "No matter how rare it is, it is just a copper ball." Xiao Yuanzi, are you sure this thing is a baby?"
Zhao Yuan took the copper ball back into his hand and said with a smile: "It's not a copper ball, it's just wrapped in a layer of copper clothing." ”
Through the Qi Observation Technique, Zhao Yuan not only saw the Qi contained in the copper ball, but also found that it only had a layer of gold on the surface, and a thick rustic atmosphere inside!
According to the situation of the five elements of qi, Zhao Yuan immediately judged that the round ball was only wrapped with a layer of copper on the surface, and it should be a stone inside.
Ordinary stones naturally cannot give birth to Qilai, so the one wrapped in copper clothes is likely to be some kind of gemstone!
"Third brother, what do you mean, there is something in this copper ball?" Wu Yan suddenly became interested.
Yang Zi asked with a puzzled expression, "Xiao Yuanzi, how did you see that there was something hidden in this copper ball?"
"Weigh the weight. ”
Of course, Zhao Yuan couldn't tell Yang Zi the truth, so he could only tell a small lie.
"The weight of this copper ball is wrong, so I guess there's something hidden in it. ”
"I see. Yang Zi was stunned for a moment, really believed his words, and did not continue to ask.
In fact, as long as you think about it, you can find that there are many loopholes in Zhao Yuan's words.
If the weight of this copper ball is wrong, Xing Hong will not find out? Although he is cunning and greedy, he still has the ability, otherwise he would not be able to mix it up in the deep antique shop. In addition, even if the weight is really wrong, it can't be said that there is a treasure hidden in it, right? Maybe it's just an ordinary stubborn stone wrapped in bronze clothes?
Fortunately, the men and women present didn't know much about antiques, otherwise Zhao Yuan's explanation would not have been able to pass the test at all.
Wu Yan urged: "Third brother, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get rid of this layer of copper clothes outside, and see what kind of treasure is hidden inside!"
Zhao Yuan also wanted to scrape off the bronze coat to see what it was and whether it could be used to make a talisman, but he didn't have a suitable tool in his hand.
Lin Xue got up, pushed the door out, and came back with a fruit knife a moment later, asking, "Do you think this knife can be used to scrape through the copper clothes?"
Zhao Yuan asked curiously, "Where did you get the knife?"
Lin Xue shook her head: "No, I borrowed it from the owner of the teahouse." ”
"It's worthy of the goddess of sweethearts, and it's really charming. Zhao Yuan made a joke, took the knife, pressed the ball, and scraped the bronze clothes.
