Chapter Twenty Seven: Ten Thousand Gold Coins
What’s next?
I had a flash of inspiration and decided to go to the antique market to see if I could make some extra money there.
Although he doesn't come to the city often, he still knows the location of the antique market. As a tourist city and an ancient historical and cultural city, Nangang's antique collection industry is quite prosperous. He often hears rumors that someone picked up an antique in the antique street.
Big leak, get rich overnight.
Go straight to your destination.
Antique Street is in the old city, located on the side of Nangang Tropical Botanical Park. The environment is clean and elegant. As soon as Li Zhongnan got off the car, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling physically and mentally happy.
There are rows of ancient buildings, wooden houses that combine Chinese and French styles, and small classical-style shops on both sides of the street. There are also street stalls on the street, selling souvenirs or collectibles.
The whole street is full of retro atmosphere.
Walking on the street, looking left and right. I randomly came to a stall. There were many old calligraphy and paintings, broken bowls and broken porcelain on the ground. Everything looked old.
An old man with a white beard was recommending to the onlookers: "This painting is called Lady in Pink, a manuscript by Tang Bohu. Unfortunately, the work is not completed and one corner is broken. But it has more collection value. It will not be sold unless it sells for 100 million."
One million, only ninety-nine thousand, don’t miss it. This urinal has a greater origin, it was used by the Empress Dowager Cixi..."
Li Zhongnan was shocked when he heard this, but he was ecstatic in his heart. Tang Bohu's painting only sold for 99,000? It's a small thing to break a corner, but the system can be repaired in no time!
"How many gold coins are needed to repair 'Pretty in Pink'?"
"Ding: 0.001 gold coins!"
Damn it!
The painting by Tang Bohu was probably only worth two yuan. Hearing the reminder from the system, Li Zhongnan secretly cursed for shame. At this time, the white-bearded stall owner still looked like a fairy and his face was not red.
He introduced other items calmly without taking a breath. Well, I can't compare to him.
After shopping for another half an hour, I found that most of the stall owners were scammers who tricked people.
Of course, I also encountered some valuable things, and it was okay to pick them up. However, there were millions of soft girl coins on the card, and now it was hundreds and thousands. Li Zhongnan was too lazy to ask for them, as if he had ten thousand yuan in his pocket.
If you see a dollar on the street, you won’t want to pick it up. It will lose your value.
Come on, there are actually people selling stones.
As I walked, I came to a stall. A middle-aged man was selling a few blue stones. I was really speechless. I lost all interest in the antique street and turned around and planned to leave.
At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded in my mind: "Ding: Warm reminder, I found three pieces of Tianyuan Stone. The system can recycle them at a high price, one gold coin for 1kg..."
Tianyuan Stone? Never heard of it!
However, I was extremely excited. 1kg can be sold for one gold coin, which is much higher than the recycling value of paper books.
A hundred times!
Li Zhongnan suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and pretended to be strolling leisurely. He came to the stall intentionally or unintentionally, squatted down, picked up a few stones and knocked them, and then asked casually: "Brother, these stones are quite hard.
ah!"
The middle-aged man said: "Isn't it! But this thing is of little value, and it is too little to build a house, so I brought it with me. The other things are sold out now. If you want it, young man, I will give it to you."
You do it!”
"How embarrassing!"
Li Zhongnan smiled honestly, and then said, "However, I do need it. The cattle barn in my hometown was just blown down by a typhoon, and I just planned to build a new one. It's just that there are a few of them. I don't know if you still have such stones at home.
No···"
The strong man seemed to be an honest man at first glance. Hearing this, he felt a little embarrassed and said: "Yes, there are some, but... I can't give them all to you. I have to keep them to make a nest for the chickens and ducks."
Li Zhongnan said: "Let's do this. Give me whatever you have for one yuan per catty!"
Hearing this, the strong man advised: "Young man, you want to pick up the missing ones, right? However, these stones have been appraised by many experts. They are just like ordinary stones and have no other value!"
"oh?"
Li Zhongnan became interested and asked: "So, do these stones have some origins? I wonder where you got them from?" Finding out the origin of these stones is the most important thing.
The strong man said truthfully: "This is brought back by an old cousin of mine. It is said that it was found on a small island in Nanyang. He thought these stones were relatively hard and the color was rare, so he brought them back to see if he could extract some precious metals from them.
But he didn't expect that they were just ordinary stones, so he threw them away in his hometown. As for the specific location, I don't know very well."
Li Zhongnan then asked: "Old Master is at home now?"
The strong man shook his head.
Li Zhongnan asked where he went again, and the strong man said again: "He went to the pastry country. I haven't heard from him for more than ten years. I just heard that he lost his family property there and got addicted to drugs again."
Hearing this, Li Zhongnan was disappointed. The pastry place was in chaos. Porn, gambling and drugs were rampant. After losing his family fortune, he became addicted to drugs again. It had been more than ten years and he might have died long ago. Even if he was still alive, he would still be dead now.
There is no way to find it.
Forget it, let’s talk about it later.
Li Zhongnan smiled and said: "Brother, to be honest with you, I am doing business outside. I am not short of money, but I just worry about my family. Typhoons have happened several times a year, and it is impossible not to build a stable cattle shed.
.My father is already quite old, so he can’t be left to worry about a cow all day long. Do you think this is right?”
The strong man nodded and said with a smile: "That's right! Let's just pay one yuan per pound. You can just give me a few thousand yuan and take the things away."
Then, pack your things.
Li Zhongnan got on the strong man's three-wheeled motorcycle and arrived at a suburb not far from the antique street, where he came to a mangrove forest.
Dozens of blue stones appeared in front of you.
Li Zhongnan forced 10,000 yuan into the strong man's hand, and then sent him away. He looked around and saw no one there. With a wave of his hand, the pile of rocks in front of him disappeared.
"sell!"
"Ding: The total Tianyuan Stone is 11,300KG. Are you sure you are sure to sell it all?"
"yes!"
"Received! The transaction is in progress...the transaction is completed...a total of 11,300 gold coins were obtained, and the system has a total of 15,000 gold coins left!"
More than 10,000 gold coins!
Li Zhongnan couldn't help being ecstatic and burst into laughter.
A while ago, I spent hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars, spent countless energy and fought with a one-eyed wolf, but got a few thousand gold coins. But now I only spent 10,000 yuan, bought dozens of small stones, and instantly...
Earned more than 10,000 gold coins!
It’s so cool, it’s so cool!
At this time, the system's voice continued to sound:
"Congratulations to the host, the transaction volume exceeded 10,000, the system will reward..."
Chapter completed!
