Chapter 241 Couplet One Hundred Million Already Half Realized
Soon, with the efforts of Shen You and Professor Li, the text information was extracted.
The reason why I can write so quickly is because I can see a lot of things but have few words.
At Professor Li's suggestion, Shen You also called Yu Xiaosu over. When he heard that there were slates from thousands of years ago, Yu Xiaosu rushed out and took a taxi.
Shenyou didn't let her know about the bronze fragments and animal bones, and she and Professor Li were the ones who handled them.
Professor Li brought the deciphered oracle bone inscriptions and told her that she would be rewarded with a reward of 100,000 yuan for confirming one word.
The next step is to wait for Wenzhi to decipher these ancient text materials, sort them out, and hand over the useful ones to the collection library.
Having just finished the complicated work, Shen You just wanted to lie down for two days, eating and waiting to die.
If you can lie down, never sit. If you can sit, never stand.
But a customer came to the door.
This time I came to take out something. I saw a man holding a black backpack and coming in cautiously, as if he was worried about no one.
The location of Shen You's store is relatively remote. If you can find it here, you must have looked elsewhere and want to get a high price. It's human nature.
He glanced around with his eyes, first looking at the furnishings in the store.
Almost all the especially valuable things after the New Year were put away by Shen You, and the shelves were basically modern handicrafts.
Then, the man's eyes fell on Shen You, as if he was on guard against thieves, as if he was afraid that Shen You would steal his things, "Where is your boss?"
"Am I not?" Shen You spread his hands.
"Are you the boss?" The man obviously didn't believe it.
She is wearing an old down jacket and looks young?
"If you don't believe it, go out and find another home." Shen You gave her advice sincerely.
All the really reliable shops in Antique Street are like this. Unless it is some extraordinary treasure, ordinary things are really not particularly rare.
This kind of stranger came here alone, either he came from the wrong place, or he was selling ancestral things, but most folk things are not very valuable.
The man hesitated for a long time, but still didn't leave,
"Boss, I have an old item here, passed down from my family, a first-class rarity. If you are interested, I can take it out and have a look, but the price will not be low."
he said warily, guarding his backpack carefully.
Shen You said calmly, "Everyone says their stuff is good, but you have to see it to know whether it's good or not."
Collecting things depends on your eyesight and people's hearts. You don't know the depth and origin of the other person. Even if the thing is really good, Shen You won't show it too obviously.
In the past six months, she has not done any business with the individual tourists who came here.
Knowing that there are many tricks in it, whether it is selling or collecting things, she has reliable channels.
What's more, the things she sells are all treasures, and those who can buy them are in the collecting circle.
In this circle, if you don’t have any connections and confidence, you will have to break your teeth and swallow it yourself if you are cheated. The fate of the world is not a joke.
Therefore, the first time she sold valuables was golden nanmu furniture, at least there was no way to exchange it.
The first time I went to an auction, I didn’t get the best thing I could get.
Otherwise, if there is only one shop that can trade across dimensions, if you want to play in the antique circle, you will only be able to achieve the achievement of 'taking advantage of others'.
The man standing in front of the counter carefully placed the bag on the table and opened it. There were still several layers of cloth wrapped inside.
He was about to hand the thing to Shen You, but Shen You didn't take it and just let him put it on the table.
She didn't even know what it was, so she didn't dare to touch it. If there was something wrong with something, she couldn't tell.
Seeing that she didn't reach out to take it, a glint flashed in the man's eyes. Finally, he put the things on it and opened the cloth bag himself.
An ancient jade made last week without any decoration.
There are also some ancient coins with patina, and the words on them can be vaguely seen.
The porcelain jar was in good condition, but unfortunately there was a big crack on it, and there was a pottery figurine on it.
Shen You was stunned. Good guy, the most valuable pottery figurines are the burial objects, regardless of whether they are real or fake. If she had really taken it just now, the gap would have to be on her head. She didn't look at the coin carefully, so maybe the cloth marks on the coin were dug out and brought with her.
"How much money do you want?" she asked curiously.
The other party gestured, fifty.
"I can't take it anymore." Shen You shook his head.
"There are so many things. This piece of jade alone is worth twenty yuan. You still think it's expensive?" the man said displeased.
As for that piece of jade, Shen You thought it was not worth two thousand yuan. It was not of good quality and was made of modern craftsmanship.
"I don't accept anything else in my store. I offer a low price for pottery figurines. You will definitely not be willing to do so, so I won't open it."
What coins will have traces of cloth pressing? It's unclear.
It’s hard to say when it was dug out.
The price he offered was so high, it would be nice to be able to charge him 100,000 yuan for recycling. The store in front estimated that the price was 50,000 yuan, because the items came from irregular sources.
"How much can you drive?"
"Twenty thousand at most." Pottery figurines are basically made from the soil, so Shen You is naturally not afraid of doing this.
It's just that she doesn't want to accept things that come from erroneous sources, for fear of trouble later.
But in this business, everyone tacitly agrees and won’t ask how she got it, so she said she offered a low price.
The man saw that she was the only one in the store, and his tone became bad. He knocked on the table and said,
"What?! Twenty thousand? If you don't know the goods, why should you open an antique shop?"
He put away the valuable things first and pointed at the porcelain jar, "The crack was caused by the crack on your table just now. Please give me an explanation!"
When Shen You heard this, she laughed angrily,
"It's Chinese New Year, are you looking for trouble for me? I haven't even touched your things, so you're cheating on me."
"Come, take a look. There is a hint of color in this crack. It is obviously not a newly formed crack. And your ancient jade is everywhere in the antique street. How many do you want, or I will sell it to you one hundred thousand?"
Shen You sneered and made a farewell gesture. No wonder the money tree she raised turned yellow and dropped its leaves! Sure enough, nothing good happened.
The man saw that she really knew her stuff and was not just pretending. He left the shop with the things and returned to the store with the highest price.
Of course, the owner of this store only accepted coins and pottery figurines, and opened the store for 56,000.
“The female boss of the store in the back who ‘has everything’ actually offered me 20,000 yuan for this pottery figurine!”
Speaking of this, the man still felt angry.
"You're talking about Boss Shen."
The man thought that Shen You had a venomous look and could see something was wrong with Gu Yu even before he started, so he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know each other? Who is she?"
"We are all in the antique street. How can we not know her? All her things are auctioned. She is young and has a good background. She has a good relationship with the museum."
When the boss said this, his tone changed slightly, which was not obvious.
They are all colleagues, and seeing her start a business so quickly and doing well in the collecting circle, they are a little jealous.
But on the surface, everyone is harmonious and will definitely not offend anyone.
Shen You closed the door of the shop, had enough rest, and went to the Daqi altar again.
Liu Yunyan was away in Shuozhou City, and Uncle Zhou became the top leader. He brought people over to help Shen You.
Shen You left a few pieces of animal bones and put the rest back to their original places.
After two more snowfalls, the altar will be buried again.
This time she also found something else, a bronze teapot, which was both a wine vessel and a ritual vessel.
Found it complete! The collection value is very high.
Unexpectedly, before the first month of the year has passed, half of the couplet's 100 million has been realized here.
If I had known, I would have written one billion. Shen You thought.
