Chapter 611 Monetary Deposit

After walking for a while, Zhou Zhi found a small stall selling small items and squatted down, turned on the flashlight and looked through the things here.

The things here are small bronze mirrors, copper stoves, pen holders, pen holders, teapots, copper coins and other small things. There are also a bunch of leader badges, magnifying glasses, copper coins, broken pens and other items. .

Master Ma frowned and thought, what is this kid doing?

In this stall, he was optimistic that a blue and white poetry pen holder was a genuine object. He estimated that it belonged to Xiaokang, that is, Guangxu, so he didn't bother to squat down and look at it.

Except for the copper coins and the modern ones, the rest are genuine. Others dare not speak, and they have to say "I don't like it" when they open their mouths.

This is the rule of the antique shop. If you don't like it, you can't say you don't like it. You can only say "I don't like it", put it down and look around again.

The buyer will understand what you mean.

"What on earth is this thing?" Zhou Zhi finally dug out a few things from the pile of junk, muttered the flashlight in his mouth, and picked up the magnifying glass on the stall to look at those things. .

Master Ma found that Zhou Zhi was holding several small tubes, each about an inch high and an inch in diameter, with a bottom and two small holes pierced side by side on the edge of the mouth. It was dyed green using crude techniques.

"Brother, just give me a price for whatever you like," said an aunt who was running the stall: "Sell it if you give me money!"

It seems that the aunt also knows that her things are not valuable, so she is probably just casual. Taking things out of the house to deal with them is just a way to join in the fun.

Zhou Zhi dropped the things, put a magnifying glass on them, and picked up the blue and white poetry pen holder that Ma Ye saw really: "This fetus is really white, how much does this cost?"

"Three hundred. There's something underneath this tube! It's a rabbit!" said the aunt.

"Really?" Zhou Zhi turned the bottom of the tire over and took a look: "Yes, monogram, aunt, things are valuable only if they have money. If you want to use the things for the emperor, you can just make a mark on them and send them over. ? So this is something from a private kiln, not worth so much.”

The aunt is a little happy because she wants to buy the goods, "It doesn't matter whether it's official or civilian, things mainly depend on fate! I think you are a real person, big brother, and you look similar to my nephew. This is fate, so let me give you a price." , If it suits you, I'll give it up!"

"This thing must be closer to the Republic of China. Three hundred is really too high, I'll give it...sixty?"

"Sixty? Ten is a bit too low." So is the aunt. Acting School: "It doesn't matter even if it's not open. I didn't give this guy a hundred and twenty before he opened it..."

"Then you can keep it until he comes back." Zhou Zhi stood up and said: "Goodbye, ma'am, I'll transfer again Turn around..."

"Don't worry, brother!" The aunt couldn't stand it anymore: "Look at it again! Maybe there's something else that catches your eye, let's figure it out together so we can discuss it!" br>


Zhou Zhi rummaged through them again and said, "There's nothing worth getting rid of. Let's talk about this barrel."

"Didn't you really like these jade finger rings just now?" the aunt asked. Zhou Zhi pulled out the items that he had just pressed under the magnifying glass: "How about you take a look at them again?" Picking up one of the "jade fingers": "I follow It’s not a violation of the rules to say a few words to this child.”

“Have you ever seen a thumb ring with no bottom? And the inner tube of the ring finger is so thick?”

"Huanyu ring finger, there is an agate safety buckle here. Weigh it yourself. Are the two ends the same weight? Yours is not even a stone. It looks like the material of the PVC pipe used in sewers now..."

"That's impossible. This is something my father-in-law left behind." The aunt said, "I also asked people about it, and they said it might be jade." "What you said is completely dishonest. Do you believe it yourself?" Zhou Zhi Finally shook his head: "Forget it, I don't dare to ask for this bottle anymore..."

"Sixty, deal!" The aunt was anxious: "Just now you You have to talk back!"

"You have to be so eager to talk back." Mr. Ma also joined the show and complained to Zhou Zhi: "This is just words and no pictures. How come these products from the Republic of China are worth sixty?”

“Why don’t you let me take care of these things?” Zhou Zhi said.

"That's right, I have to add something to it, but what is this? Just count it as sixty?"

"I don't know, go back and study it slowly, don't really think it's PVC you said..." Zhou Zhi picked up the small objects and prepared to study them.

"That's it!" The eldest lady snatched the small tube from Zhou Zhi's hand, pulled out a piece of newspaper, put several small green tubes in the bag, and stuffed them into the Guangxu blue and white pen holder: " Deal, I’ll give you sixty, you missed something!”

“Haha! Ha... It's OK to just say that you picked up the leak without letting anyone see it clearly..." Zhou Zhi took out a fifty-fifty card from his trouser pocket and frowned: "Master Ma..."

Master Ma sighed. He gave Zhou Zhi an extra ten yuan and said, "Forget it, let's learn from it and gain wisdom."

Even if he got two things, Zhou Zhi carried the pen holder and walked forward with Mr. Ma. After walking for a while, Mr. Ma said: "Those green tubes are bird food cans, right?"

"Well, they are indeed. The bird food jar is a welcome gift for the old man.”

“The workmanship is a little rough, it’s not bamboo, it’s not wood, it’s not jade, it’s not stone, it’s not porcelain, it’s not teeth, it’s even bone. The head doesn’t even look like it. I’m telling you, the old man is very picky.”

“Actually, I can’t really tell, but it should be bones.”

“The bone sculpture is Lao Yan. Beijing’s traditional craftsmanship is usually made of camel bones and cow bones, but even the bone carvings that have been played with for many years are not smooth and moist. How are they different from these?”

"Bones are divided into raw and cooked. The bone products you are familiar with, Mr. Ma, are all degreased by boiling in alkaline water and are carefully made. Those are called cooked pieces." Zhou Zhi and Mr. Ma whispered in exchange: "Actually, in the southwest, in the snowy area, There is also a kind of bone product called raw material, which retains the oil in the bone and can produce a translucent feeling after processing. ”< br>
“I guess the Manchus and Mongolians should have similar craftsmanship. I saw a big cat raw material bone tube at my fourth cousin’s house. I used it for my fourth aunt’s muscle massage. I played with it for a few times. After ten years, she will be as beautiful as Tian Huang."

"So this one is also made of raw material from a big cat?" Master Ma asked.

“I don’t know either,” Zhou Zhi said honestly: “Logically speaking, big cat raw material is a rare medicinal material. Can it be used after dyeing?”

“Anyway, the shape looks good. It's like a bird food jar." Mr. Ma also said carelessly: "Master is an expert, he can definitely give an explanation."

After saying that, he shook his head: "How many people talk about Guangxu and the Republic of China as soon as they see the monogram? I almost lost my sight just now, Lao Kang or Yongzheng?"

Zhou Zhi took out the newspaper bag inside the pen holder and handed the pen holder over. To Mr. Ma: "Take a look."

Ma Weiwei turned the pen holder over and found that in addition to the circle feet, the bottom was also coated with base glaze, and a pattern of a little white rabbit was outlined in blue and white in the middle.
