0146 National Treasure(1/2)
It was the next day, at 8 o'clock in the morning, Lu Yunfeng met Yuncai and Mu Yuan on Antique Street. The three of them were going to meet yesterday, but yesterday morning, when Lu Yunfeng was about to go, he received a call from Yuncai saying that Yunfeng knew about what happened last night and asked their family to come over to ask questions early in the morning, so today's date was changed to the next day.
Lu Yunfeng expressed his understanding, it was only one day away, it was nothing.
"Xiao Lu, I'm so sorry for wasting your time." After meeting, Yuncai kept accusing Lu Yunfeng of his fault. After all, their own affairs had tormented Lu Yunfeng's time, and he must be sad.
"It's okay." Lu Yunfeng didn't care. He turned his head to look at the taciturn Mu Yuan and smiled slightly: "Look at your pretty good look, I'm relieved."
"There is nothing to worry about." Mu Yuan said lightly: "The danger has passed, I'm fine."
After experiencing the great disaster of life and death, but still showing so calmness, Mu Yuan's psychological endurance is really strong.
Lu Yunfeng smiled slightly and said, "Let's go!"
Yunhai Antique Street is a greenhouse-shaped commercial street similar to a wholesale market. The entire street here basically sells antiques. Of course, real things must be a minority among the few. The others are either imitations or pure contemporary crafts. These crafts are placed here, basically for foreigners to use. Ordinary people want to buy crafts. Some of the shops are those who come here to buy them, and basically they are residents nearby.
Before Lu Yunfeng was reborn, he had come to Antique Street several times, but he just took a look. He bought some beautiful small items, of course, all of which were modern small handicrafts and things worth a few dollars. Now he doesn't know where to throw them away. After reborn, this is the first time he has come to Antique Street.
At this time, the vendors on Antique Street had set up their own stalls, and the vendors who were close to each other gathered together to chat around, most of them talking about their recent income and where to buy good things.
Small vendors selling antiques are different from those selling vegetables. Vegetables sell vegetables have to keep shouting, but they will definitely not be able to do without a good voice. Antiques sellers only need to set up a stall and take a small stool and sit behind the stall and wait for customers to come to the door, and children can watch it.
After walking this road, Lu Yunfeng also saw some real things. But he didn't start immediately. There were many real things on this street. He couldn't get it away by himself. It was not particularly precious, so he could just take a look.
"That's it." Yuncai took Lu Yunfeng into a store. Looking at the decoration, it was quite high-end. There were a wide variety of antique calligraphy and paintings at the door and on the first floor. Lu Yunfeng found that the proportion of real things here was very high, almost reaching 1:9.
There is a real thing in the ten pieces, and this antique shop is quite conscientious.
But I deserve it if I buy a fake.
"Oh! Principal Yun, you are here!" A middle-aged man in his forties greeted Yuncai with great enthusiasm: "You are here at the right time. We just came a batch of new goods yesterday. Are you in the palm of your eyes?"
Yuncai smiled slightly: "Okay! Take out something, take it out and take a look!"
"Everyone is here! You're going to have a palm." The middle-aged man took out more than a dozen messy things from the container, including bronze Buddha statues, porcelain, pottery, and a few pieces of ancient jade.
Yuncai waved to Lu Yunfeng and Mu Yuan: "You guys come here to see if you have anything you like, I'll buy it for you."
Mu Yuan was not interested in these things and turned his head to ask the middle-aged man: "Do you have antiques like erotic palace pictures?"
"Cough cough cough..." The middle-aged man couldn't breathe and was almost choked to death by a mouthful of saliva.
Yuncai's face turned red and she said embarrassedly: "My daughter's interests are a bit off-limited."
"No... it's okay." The middle-aged man looked at this beautiful but cold girl and laughed dryly: "Your daughter is really... really... really unique."
Lu Yunfeng chuckled: "This is called the world is turbid and I am clear. Boss, you have to practice your eloquence again!"
"Ouch! That's great." The middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he looked at Lu Yunfeng. Wow, the young man was energetic: "That's right, that's what I mean, Principal Yun, who is this young man?"
"Haha, I'm a junior." Yuncai smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Lu, see if there is anything you like?"
"These things are not very good-looking, and I don't understand them either, so I don't want them." Lu Yunfeng just saw at a glance that these dozen things were fakes, all of them were old, but the skills of old-fashioned are very high, and even some ordinary experts are difficult to tell.
For example, Yuncai was attracted by the small bronze Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was 18cm high, the base was 10cm wide and 15cm long. It was a Yongle Buddha statue. Its skill in doing old things was very good. When she was guided by middle-aged people, Yuncai also thought it was an old object, but the age was not easy to judge. Yuncai had been observing for a long time and the preliminary judgment was from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty.
"How much does this Buddha statue cost?" Yuncai asked.
"Haha, if you have a good opinion, then you can have 20,000!" the middle-aged man smiled.
"It's a little expensive..." Yuncai frowned because he was not very accurate in seeing it and was not very acceptable to the price.
"It's not expensive for 20,000 yuan, that is, you, if you change to someone else, I won't sell it if you don't have 50,000 yuan." The middle-aged man fooled.
"Um..." Yuncai turned his head and looked at Lu Yunfeng. Lu Yunfeng shook his head slightly and said, "Aunt Yun, this Buddha statue is dirty and old, and it is so expensive. There is nothing to buy. Let's take a look at something else!"
Seeing Lu Yunfeng's attitude, Yuncai hesitated a little, but finally decided to listen to him. Lu Yunfeng always had to give him face when he came with her for the first time.
"Listen to you." Pushing the Buddha statue to the middle-aged man, Yuncai said: "Old Liu, show me the blue and white pot last time."
Seeing that Yuncai was not fooled, the middle-aged man secretly said it was a pity, but the hospitality was still very enthusiastic. After all, Yuncai was an old customer. If he didn’t make a profit this time, he would always make a profit next time.
"Principal Yun, I can't figure out the blue and white can. If it is true, it will definitely be worth the money. Even if it is fake, it can fool half of professional people. So if you buy it for 50,000 yuan, you won't suffer any loss regardless of whether it is true or false." The middle-aged man took the blue and white can that Yuncai looked at last time and said with a smile.
When Lu Yunfeng saw this blue and white jar, he could tell at a glance that this was an authentic product, and it was a blue and white peony pattern tower-shaped bottle. However, the blue and white patterns on it were not blue, but light yellow. It belonged to works from the early Yuan Dynasty. Even people in the collection industry rarely knew about it. No wonder Yuncai couldn't see it accurately.
If this cap bottle is stored in twenty years, it will have a value of at least tens of millions of yuan, but now it only costs 50,000 yuan.
You can't buy 50,000 yuan and suffer losses, you can't buy 50,000 yuan and suffer fool... Cough.
Lu Yunfeng pretended to be interested and said, "This bottle is quite fun. There is a tower on the cover."
When the middle-aged man heard these pure layman's words, he just smiled and didn't say anything. Yuncai knew that this was Lu Yunfeng's hint. Lu Yunfeng shook his head and said no. Now he said this thing is fun. He must know that it is a real thing. But before she could speak, Lu Yunfeng said, "Aunt Yun, I like this little jar very much. Give it to me!"
"Oh, do you really like it?" Yuncai smiled.
"Yes! I have never seen porcelain with tower covers since I was a child, but it is a little expensive." Lu Yunfeng turned his head and asked, "Boss, this bottle is a bit cheaper, is it five hundred?"
The boss almost touched the ground with his head, his face was groaned with depression, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Master, can we stop making trouble?"
"Although your jar is fun, it's too dirty. Five hundred yuan is not enough." Lu Yunfeng said while observing the boss's reaction. Seeing that the boss was constantly depressed, he said, "Why would you add fifty more?"
Yuncai burst out laughing and said, "You kid, really don't know anything. Forget it, since you like it, Aunt Yun will buy it for you."
Yuncai smiled and said, "Old Liu, I want this jar, but you can give it a little more!"
The boss smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, today I am unlucky. I'll give you a lucky number, 48,000, you can take it away!"
"Haha, thank you." There is no check-in machine in the antique shop now. Yuncai handed his bank card to Lu Yunfeng, told him the password, and asked him to go to a nearby bank to withdraw money.
Yuncai is not afraid of telling Lu Yunfeng the password because she knows that Lu Yunfeng is much richer than her. As for why Lu Yunfeng is asked to withdraw money? Because Lu Yunfeng is here, those who are staring at robbing money must also consider whether it is easy to grab a partner?
Lu Yunfeng did not refuse, and spent almost half an hour to get 50,000 yuan in cash back: "Aunt Yun, I'll give you these two thousand, and the remaining one is 48,000 yuan."
Yuncai nodded with laughter, put the card and two thousand cash into his bag, and handed the rest to the boss: "Diandian!"
"I can't believe you if I order something?" The boss ordered it again, and he ordered it for 48,000 yuan, one without any difference.
The boss's behavior made Lu Yunfeng shake his head. This is a real businessman and cannot be considered a collector.
He came out with the jar and Lu Yunfeng said, "Aunt Yun, you must keep this jar well. If you can store it, try to keep it as much as possible. Don't sell it within at least twenty years."
"What?" Seeing Lu Yunfeng saying so seriously, Yuncai felt a little nervous: "Is it a real thing?"
"Absolutely true, and it is rare in the world." Lu Yunfeng said: "This is a blue and white peony-patterned tower-shaped bottle from the early Yuan Dynasty. Now, you can count it with one hand and put it in any museum. It can be said to be the treasure of the museum. I won't mention the value. Twenty years later, you sold it for less than 100 million. I will replenish it."
Yuncai was startled: "It's really so valuable?"
"You can leave it anyway!" Lu Yunfeng said: "The value of things must always be determined according to the amount of national wealth. Now it may be millions. Twenty years later, hundreds of millions will not be a problem, and it will definitely be more expensive in a few years."
"Then I dare not ask for it." Yuncai pushed the jar to him: "If you say it is worth hundreds of thousands in twenty years, I will keep it, but if you say it is worth millions now, I dare not ask for it, you can keep it!"
"Aunt Yun, you're wrong!" Lu Yunfeng pushed her back: "You bought this jar, of course it's yours. Besides, I don't have the hobbies to collect. Even if I collect it, I will definitely collect those beautiful ones. Although this jar is valuable, it's dirty and old. I don't want it for free. You should keep it yourself!"
"this……"
"Stop refusing." Lu Yunfeng said: "It would be meaningless to refuse again."
Yuncai looked at him deeply and nodded with a smile: "Then Aunt Yun is not polite."
Then he took out the two thousand yuan and stuffed it to him: "Buy whatever you like, Aunt Yun has to go back first." After a pause, he turned his head to Mu Yuan and said, "Xiao Yuan, remember to go home for lunch."
Mu Yuan nodded: "I understand."
After explaining two more games, Yuncai took a taxi home with a can. Lu Yunfeng turned his head to look at Mu Yuan and patted the money in his hand: "Little sister, do you see the money in the uncle? Do you want to go with him to see the erotic pictures?"
Mu Yuan pursed her lips: "Bored."
"..." Lu Yunfeng tsk, kicked the money in his pocket, and said, "Let's go! I'll help you with your palms."
"Thanks."
"How do you know how to be polite at this time?" Lu Yunfeng sweated.
"You were really bored just now, but now you want to help me. Of course I have to express my gratitude." Mu Yuan said naturally.
"..."Okay! When you meet such a girl who is straightforward, Lu Yunfeng can only go straight to straight.
Mu Yuan has no fixed goal. As long as he walks to a stall, he will ask: "Is there anything about the erotic palace map?"
The vendors were all very embarrassed. However, when asked about the 16th house, the vendor pointed to the blue porcelain ink cartridge: "There are three pieces, the hand-painted erotic pictures inside, which were just released this year."
Mu Yuan squatted down with her skirt and opened the lid of the blue porcelain ink cartridge. There was indeed a picture of the erotic palace inside. The bottom was covered. Three pieces, a total of six pictures of the erotic palace. Although the painting was rough, Mu Yuan liked it and asked, "How much does these three pieces cost?"
"One hundred, three hundred." Mu Yuan nodded. Just as he was about to pay, Lu Yunfeng handed over three hundred-dollar bills and turned to Mu Yuan and said, "The money given by your mother will not be spent in vain."
Mu Yuan didn't insist, so he asked the vendor for three ink cartridges for packaging boxes, and put on a handbag, and continued to ask the next one with the ink cartridges.
There are very few things like the Spring Palace Picture, and even the antique market is very rare. Lu Yunfeng accompanied Mu Yuan to ask more than 100 stores, but only seven stores have related objects, and they are basically modern handicrafts, with very few ancient objects.
But it is not without it. For example, the owner of the store in front of him took out a Qing Dynasty pen to wash it. On the surface, it looked nothing, but when the lid of the pen was opened, a pair of porcelain figures of men and women sitting on a lotus while Guanyin appeared inside. This thing looked like the thing of an ignorant playboy master in the Qing Dynasty, but no matter what, it was considered a cultural relic.
However, the collection value of sexual cultural relics in this era was very low. In the end, Mu Yuan bought this thing for only one thousand yuan. At this time, Lu Yunfeng had spent all the two thousand yuan, but instead spent two hundred yuan in it.
"It's almost done!" Seeing that it was noon, the money was spent, and two hundred were still put in. The two of them were carrying six or seven bags in their hands. Lu Yunfeng felt that Mu Yuan could stop for the time being.
"Let's do it first!" Mu Yuan looked at him and whispered: "Thank you."
"Don't be polite." Lu Yunfeng said: "Your mother is still waiting for you to go home for dinner. I'll stop a car for you. You can go back first!"
"Where are you?" Mu Yuan asked.
"I have something to do." Lu Yunfeng smiled slightly: "Can you go back by yourself, right?"
"Yes." Mu Yuan nodded. At this time, a taxi drove over. Lu Yunfeng took Mu Yuan into the car and said, "See you back."
