Chapter 292
: Bringing money together
It’s not that the shape of this copper coin is problematic, or the year or something, which makes Jia Sidao full of surprise. Or, it’s just that the copper coin itself is fake. After all, from the perspective of an outsider, the longer the average copper coin is, the more valuable it is, the more it is.
Jia Sidao has met such people many times. For example, everyone naturally thinks that the same piece of porcelain, which is the Han Dynasty, must be much more expensive than those from the Qing Dynasty. Not to mention that it is not easy to keep it from the Han Dynasty to the present, even if it lasts for such a long time, it is worth a lot of money, right?
However, in fact, this is not the case.
Some of the porcelains of the Han Dynasty were indeed more precious than many porcelains in the Qing Dynasty, but most of them were still not as good as those in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Not to mention the gradual progress in craftsmanship, whether it is the level of exquisiteness, aesthetic concepts, or even the exquisite porcelains of the Ming and Qing dynasties, after they have become many decorations in the palace, their prices are even less comparable to those in the Han Dynasty.
Jia Sidao naturally knew this very well because of his love for porcelain. This is a similar truth to the antique copper coins.
The copper coin in front of me, even though it was indeed from the Northern Song Dynasty, it seemed not worth the price because of the huge number of existences. If it were the case, Jia Sidao would not feel any strangeness of this copper coin. However, just as Jia Sidao gently stroked the chicken feather, he played around in his hand, and suddenly found that the four big words "Jingyou Yuanbao" were cast on the back of the copper coin.
Immediately, Jia Sidao was afraid that he had misjudged the look, so he looked at the copper coins at the bottom of the shuttlecock repeatedly. Until he found that the words "Jingyou Yuanbao" were indeed cast on both sides, he turned to look at the little girl who was walking towards him with a strange expression.
With a ponytail, she was about ten years old, and her big eyes were naturally full of childishness. However, at this moment, the little girl looked at Jia Sidao's eyes, but she was not very polite, as if she was afraid that Jia Sidao would steal her shuttlecock. Moreover, she looked at the shuttlecock in Jia Sidao's hand with a faint look. Her little hand was also slightly stretched out, and she was stunningly snatching the shuttlecock from Jia Sidao's hand.
As a result, the expression on Jia Sidao's face looked even more strange!
Speaking of the copper coin in his hand, since he found out that the word "Jingyou Yuanbao" on both sides, Jia Sidao wanted to take it away. After all, Jia Sidao has checked the information on antique coins for a while. Not to mention the copper coins of any dynasty, he has 100% understanding of the copper coins of any dynasty. At least, what kind of copper coins are the most expensive and what kind of copper coins, such as "Jingyou Yuanbao" are more common, and he is still clear in his heart.
No matter how bad it is, it is like some weird copper coins, and the impression will be more profound.
It is like the "female coin" used before casting copper coins in the palace. That is, before casting copper coins, you must first make a sample coin of copper coins and give it to the emperor at that time. Only after confirmation can you mint a large amount of money. That kind of coin is "female coin". Generally, it will not be of the same size as the circulating copper coins, but will be much larger on purpose, and the material of the casting will be different.
Such ancient coins are naturally more valuable.
In addition, Jia Sidao also knows this type of "Jingyou Yuanbao". I remember that in Mr. Sun Zhonghui's book "Ancient Coins", there is a record of such "Honggongqian".
It is said to be "hebei", but in fact, it is literally understood that this kind of money is cast by misusing the category of two faces when minting copper coins. Ancient coins with money text on both sides are called "hebei text". On the contrary, those without money text on both sides are called "hebei". This is like a modern coin. Suddenly, a money with the same pattern on the front and back appears.
Needless to say, anyone knows that such coins have greater collection significance.
Moreover, during the Song Dynasty, due to the severeness of the money law, there were very few cases of "combining the back" or "combining the face". Therefore, the number of such copper coins was extremely small. Even the large number of copper coins such as "Jingyou Yuanbao" were extremely rare. Those that could be left and passed down were highly valued by ancient coin collectors.
It is hard for Jia Sidao to imagine that he was just going home and going out to find his mother. On this road, he could encounter such a "coin of money" and naturally he had no intention of letting go. Even if the ancient coins are right, Jia Sidao does not have the ability to identify the first ones who came here. However, just think about it casually, as a copper coin used as shuttlecock kicks, if there is still a possibility of deliberately making fraud, then Jia Sidao might simply buy any antiques in the future and ask an expert to help the person who is around him to check it.
Moreover, Jia Sidao did not think that there were any antiques in a place like his hometown.
When encountering such a rare coin-carrying money, it can be regarded as a treasure in the collection of coins. How could Jia Sidao miss it? So, Jia Sidao instantly smiled and said to the little girl in front of him with a gentle look on his face: "This kid, is this shuttlecock yours?"
As for the idea of making things difficult for the little girl at the beginning, Jia Sidao had long been thrown away by Jia Sidao.
Fortunately, the girl didn't recognize a strange person, so she nodded and said with great agreement: "Yeah!" After that, she looked at Jia Sidao with a strange look and added, "This shuttlecock was made for me by my mother."
"Then can you buy this shuttlecock for your brother?" When Jia Sidao said this, he suddenly felt that his current situation was a bit like a big bad wolf, deceiving the little white rabbit. Then, he even touched it from his pocket. Originally, he only planned to take out 10 yuan.
After all, it is really a luxury to exchange for a little girl's shuttlecock in a place like this in a small town. However, when seeing the innocent eyes of the other girl, Jia Sidao suddenly exchanged the 10 yuan RMB for a 100 yuan RMB.
Then, holding the shuttlecock in one hand and 100 yuan in the other, he shook it at the little girl in front of him and said, "Look, if you promise to sell the shuttlecock to your brother, the money will belong to you."
The little girl's expression made Jia Sidao feel a little bitterly smiled. First, she looked at her own shuttlecock seriously, and she felt a little reluctant in her eyes. Then, she bet on the money in Jia Sidao's hand, and she carefully reached out and touched her, as if she was looking at the sunshine, afraid that this 100 yuan money would be fake.
Finally, maybe he was sure, then he suddenly raised his head and said to Jia Sidao: "Really?"
Seeing Jia Sidao nodding, before he could speak, the little girl snatched 100 yuan of RMB, jumped and turned around and left. While running, she shouted: "Mom, mom, someone exchanged 100 yuan for my shuttlecock..." Her cheerful look seemed to be contagious, and could infect many people next to her.
Then, just as Jia Sidao looked at him with a smile on his face, the little girl rushed into the gate of a house near the shore.
As for the little girls who were originally playing with her, they were even more curious and excited. They didn't understand why an ordinary shuttlecock could be exchanged for 100 yuan? Of course, they were still very clear about the function of 100 yuan. Before Jia Sidao had time to leave, the few little girls next to them rushed to Jia Sidao and shouted in unison: "Big brother, my shuttlecock is better than Xiaoya's one, so I'll sell it to you..." Such words made Jia Sidao's head full.
After talking for a while, Jia Sidao finally got out.
Looking back at the scene just now, Jia Sidao was not in a slightest annoyance! Instead, he felt that the little girls had a good vision and knew how to do business. The children these days are still very different from those they were when they were young.
At that time, when Jia Sidao was young, he could rarely see even one dollar.
If someone reaches out to exchange something with him for one dollar, he will not be able to say that his performance will be worse than the little girl just now. Moreover, even if he sees someone among his friends who has exchanged money, Jia Sidao will never follow him and earnestly exchange it.
I really don't have the courage.
At most, it is to keep up with the footsteps of the money-making friends and get some benefits!
Thinking about it, Jia Sidao weighed the shuttlecock on his hand, but the smile on the corner of his mouth became increasingly rich. Just as he was about to pull out the chicken feathers on it, he saw a middle-aged woman coming over from afar. Jia Sidao took a few steps, met him, and shouted: "Mom, I'm back. I'll help you get it."
As he said that, he reached out and brought the bucket containing the washed clothes from his mother.
"Why did you think that you were back today?" Although you heard the complaints about Jia Sidao's failure to go home for three or two months from the mother's words, after seeing Jia Sidao, the smile on her face made Jia Sidao feel very intimate. If you weren't afraid of disturbing your mother, Jia Sidao would have been going to tell her assets directly.
"Hey, Xiao Jia, you are so old, why are you still playing with this shuttlecock?" The mother looked at Jia Sidao holding a bucket in one hand and a shuttlecock in the other. She couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm not afraid that others will joke!"
"Haha, this is not for fun. It was something I just bought." Jia Sidao replied. His eyes turned, as if the reason he had been bothering him about asking his mother to help in Linhai was suddenly enlightened at this moment, and he said with a smile, "Mom, don't look at such a small shuttlecock, there are many values in it."
"By the way, Xiao Jia, you said last time that you made a lot of money. Your dad and I kept asking a few more questions, but you didn't tell us seriously. It's not that you are just buying these shuttlecocks or other small toys? This is not good. If you don't do serious work, where can you get the time to do these small business?" The smile on my mother's face was still bright, but she looked a little old in her face. It seemed that most middle-aged women in the town or in the countryside were like this.
Jia Sidao thought, if it were women in the city, if they had some skin care products to moisturize their skin, or, even in their forties or fifties, they would not look the same as those in the rural areas, right? Not to mention that those who were teenagers or twenties were younger, at least, they would look brighter, but they would certainly be.
Thinking of this, Jia Sidao became even more determined about the idea of taking his mother to Linhai.
"Mom, no." Jia Sidao quickly interrupted his mother's nagging and said, "If I buy some small toys, even if I want, I have to see if I have the opportunity and time."
"That's right." The mother nodded in classical Chinese and said, "I was going to go to the city to see you, but the old man of your family refused to let me go. He said that the child had grown up and he should go by himself. I said, "You should tell my mother quickly how the money I got from last time came. Otherwise, my mother would always be uneasy!"
"Okay." Jia Sidao nodded. No need to guess anymore. Jia Sidao understood in his heart. It turned out that the two elders had not used the money he had given to his family last time. Thinking about it, this fact was not beyond Jia Sidao's expectations. Although the money was not much, Jia Sidao could guess before sending the money, he must have saved it back.
For my mother, at this time, there is nothing bigger and more important than finding a marriage for Jia Sidao, right?
It is rare that Jia Sidao can send a sum of money to come home, so his mother naturally needs to save it well. However, the worries in her heart are also affirmative. Jia Sidao's so-called rewards or winning lottery tickets in the unit can naturally deceive his parents.
Others may not understand Jia Sidao, so why don’t their parents understand?
In front of them, let alone let Jia Sidao tell a lie, even if he makes an action, he may be able to discover what Jia Sidao was feeling at that time.
