There is an old saying since ancient times: "Buy antiques in prosperous times, hide gold in troubled times". After 2000, the stalls that resell old gadgets from the town to the countryside have become a unique scenery in the land of China, and Shoucheng is no exception. It's just that in the eyes of the two thieves, 99.999% of the so-called antiques were filtered out by them at the first glance.

This time, Guan Xiao saw something very strange. Strange, this thing looks new, and the design is so careful, at least at first glance, that it looks like something from some modern small craft workshop. However, Guan Xiao vaguely felt that there was a very strange force on it, this power Guan Xiao was a little familiar, to be precise, Guan Xiao was in the snake's belly, a vague sense of breath.

Ding drank the white jade jade soup, followed the apprentice's gaze, and the old man also let out a "Huh", and then, the master and apprentice Shi Shiran picked up what from a stall next to him and commented indiscriminately while looking at it, just like two old men who went out for the first time, they threw five yuan and bought an antique cigarette holder that had been buried in the soil for a year or two years, and the two of them came to the stall that was optimistic.

For the authentic thief sect, this kind of people who set up stalls belong to the ninth class of the rivers and lakes, and they are within the scope of "nine do not steal and eight do not steal", so although Ding Yi's master and apprentice have a crush on a small thing, they can only buy it by mouth.

Guan Xiao picked up two big-eyed copper coins first, and when he looked at the bright patina hanging on them, the thief sighed in his heart: The things in these years are becoming more and more unprofessional, and the patina is actually stained with glue. asked about the price, cut two more sentences, and threw the copper coin down, Ding Yi said on the side: "Back then, your grandfather came back from Kanto, and such copper coins can be hung a lot, don't spend money blindly, go back to the old house and rummage carefully, maybe you can find a few." ”

The stall was set up by a man in his thirties, with a shirt and a suit on his upper body, a pair of jeans on his lower body, slip-on shoes on his feet, and a pair of semi-brown glasses.

Guan Xiao casually touched another inkstone, looked at it twice, put it down again, and then picked up a long sword more than two feet long, pulled it out and saw that it was full of rust, this is natural rust - as long as the iron is buried in the ground for two months, it can be rusted like this, and the little boy gestured twice. Ding Yi hid far away on the side: "Put it down, don't learn well at a young age, your grandfather has always said, don't look at the Water Margin when you are young, don't look at the Three Kingdoms when you are old, hurt people and see that I don't beat you a little rabbit." ”

Guan Xiao pouted and put the "sword" back in the sheath and put it down again.

The third time, the little boy picked up something the size of a child's fist from the stall and shouted at Ding Yi in "shock": "Uncle, look at this, it's exactly the same as our stove, this can't be made of gold." ”

"What kind of gold, the gold is still here, it's so beautiful to you. Let me see. Ding Yi was rarely interested, reached out and took the thing, as soon as the object fell into his hand, Ding Yi and Guan Xiao inadvertently collided with each other, it was really made of gold!

Of course, it's not pure gold, but red gold - it's hard for ordinary people to distinguish between red gold and red copper, especially this kind of small stall owner, most of the things on the stall are collected for three or two yuan in the countryside, and those who really have the eye to price have already made a lot of money and become cultural relics dealers.

The appearance of this object and the folk stove do have some imagination, about seven or eight centimeters long, about five centimeters high, three or four centimeters wide, the front is a stove door, there is also a handle on it, although it is dark, Ding Yi and Guan Xiao have just touched it, there is a gossip yang carving on the stove door, the handle seems to be able to move, but the little finger can not be pulled out with a button, there are very likely other organs inside; the middle above the stove door is a blue bead the size of a soybean; the front and side are poured with moire, and the moire is decorated with beads the size of millet grains; the last is the smoke outlet, about 2 cm high, counting from top to bottom, a total of nine layersIn front of the cigarette mouth is a gold wire tray, in which are placed dozens of golden pills the size of mung beans (elixir made of gold), and there are three small circles around the tray, in which are placed three-color objects, which should be Dan materials - obviously, judging from the appearance, this is an alchemy furnace!

This thing is very strange!

Alchemy is a unique means of Taoism, and there are many common styles of alchemy furnaces, but the master and apprentice have never seen an alchemy furnace like a folk stove, if this thing is fake, it is easy to explain, but what is in front of you is an alchemy furnace made of gold, this ...... It's too exaggerated to use it for counterfeiting, right?

Seeing that the two of them became interested in something for the first time, the peddler's eyes pulled back from a certain ****** girl in the distance, and secretly looked at the expressions on the faces of the two men, and wanted to estimate the price at which the gadget could be sold and make more money.

"Uncle, can you buy it for me and play with it?"

"Why are you buying this? I can't eat or drink, it's just a brass lump, go back and let your uncle burn two." Ding Yi shook his head vigorously.

This is not to blame the master and apprentice two acting, the people who set up the antique stalls, once they encounter something that they are not sure of, they will throw it to the stall to "try", if you meet someone who really understands, once you have an interest in this thing, then I am really sorry, and I will not sell it! Moreover, the antique industry is not averse to this kind of "trial" - this is an antique, don't blame others when you buy a fake, buy a good thing and steal it for fun and don't have to be kind, as long as the thing is not traded, any changes are normal.

"No, uncle, you don't know my uncle's craftsmanship, just burn bricks, the copper pistol poured on me when I was a child was laughed at by all the children, you buy me one, you don't have to buy me anything else this time." Guan Xiao blinked, his eyes pulled the corner of Ding Yi's clothes and shook it.

"How many bucks?" Ding Yi asked the vendor with a frown.

“200。 The vendor thought about it and decided to try it first.

"What? 200 for such a gadget, you can buy 10 pounds of brass for 200. Ding Yi turned the small copper stove upside down like a tattered one: "Child, let's not buy it, I'll take you to the restaurant in a while, it's delicious and inexpensive mushu meat." ”
