Chen Wenzhe was at his wits end. He sold it as gold coins and held on to the price of three thousand.
He believed that as long as he spit, this guy would definitely regret it.
"Forget it, I can't get the goods at this price, you should go look elsewhere!"
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to play hard to get.
Sure enough, when Chen Wenzhe said this, the man felt unsure.
It’s not like he hasn’t studied this coin. If he had no other choice, would he have deceived people after deceiving him?
"Two thousand, this is my bottom line."
"No, I will pay five hundred at most."
"I've lowered the price, but you still want it to be longer!"
By this time, Chen Wenzhe was relieved and wanted to sell as long as he was willing to bid.
"Okay, just six hundred!"
"I dropped a thousand, but you only gave me a hundred? One thousand and eight, and you won't sell it for a cent less."
"Okay, I'll give you eight hundred. I don't want an extra dollar."
"One thousand and five, if you continue to negotiate the price, I will turn around and leave."
"The last price is one thousand two hundred and twenty. Am I sincere this time? I just want to study this thing when I hold it in my hand. I believe you must have studied it too. Have you found anything?"
"Hey, when I first got it, I thought I had found a treasure!"
After he finished speaking, the man suddenly seemed to realize something. He looked up, and sure enough, he saw three contemptuous faces.
The man's face turned red and he immediately said: "Just one thousand and two, pay!"
He doesn't slap people in the face, he doesn't expose his faults when he scolds him. Chen Wenzhe knows this very well, so naturally he won't continue to irritate the man. What if he becomes angry and refuses to sell him anything?
Pay money, pick up things, and send people out.
After the others had gone away, Chen Wenzhe returned to the store with peace of mind.
"What's so good about this thing?" Zheng Yu asked curiously.
"Yes, can you identify what kind of coin this is?" Cao Qingchun was also very curious.
Even Li Jinli listened with open ears.
He obviously also wanted to know why Chen Wenzhe bothered to buy this fake coin.
"I really want to make a bet. Tongbao that starts with big characters includes Daguan, Datong, and Dachao. In fact, there is another one, which is Daqi Tongbao from the Southern and Northern Dynasties period."
"Da Qi Tong Bao? How is that possible?" Cao Qingchun said with a shocked look on his face.
Daqi Tongbao was the first Southern Tang coin cast by Li Bian, the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Only two coins have been found so far.
One is called the missing corner, and the other is called the four-eye.
Almost all products circulating in the world are imitations.
"I just thought of the possibility, but I'm not sure yet!"
"Da Qi Tong Bao? Is it expensive?" Zheng Yu asked confused.
Cao Qingchun looked at Zheng Yu with disdain and said: "If it is a genuine Daqi Tongbao, the market price is millions, possibly tens of millions."
"I'm just guessing. Da Qi Tongbao has found two so far, and one of them is still missing. This one may not be the same. Even if it is, it's not easy to prove. Let's take a look first!"
This time, Chen Wenzhe really wanted to take a gamble.
Whether it is Da Qi Tong Bao or not is actually not that important.
Mainly because I encountered an opportunity, and Da Qi Tong Bao is so precious.
This kind of coin ranks among the fifty treasures, and there are only two of them in the world. They are both very legendary.
"The Missing Corner Daqi" was hidden by Dai Xi, a famous Jiangnan scholar in the Qing Dynasty. He later committed suicide by drowning. In order to obtain this rare and authentic stick, later generations rushed to buy Dai Xi's house and dug the ground several times, but in the end they found nothing.
The "Four Eyes" were discovered by Quanzhou scholars Dai Baoting and Zhu Kezhuang in the 1920s on shuttlecocks played by children in rural Poyang, Xijiang. Later, they were purchased by the famous collector Zhang Shuxun with a large sum of money, and were hidden in a secret room and never revealed to anyone.
.
It's a pity that it is now hidden in a foreign museum and it is difficult to even take a look!
"Damn it, you couldn't have guessed randomly, right? Tell me, how did you guess it?"
Zheng Yu was already very anxious, he seemed to have made a meritorious deed again this time.
"How else can you guess? The inscriptions on this copper coin are slender, clear, neat and powerful. This is the biggest doubt. Also, the specifications of other copper coins are a bit large. Only Daqi Tongbao, I remember it has a diameter of twenty
Two millimeters.”
"Can you remember such knowledge points?" Zheng Yu looked surprised.
Cao Qingchun and Li Jinli also held their mobile phones and looked at the records about Da Qi Tong Bao.
Very few people have seen this thing, and even fewer people have heard of it.
The main reason is that in modern times, except for Dai Chunshi, everyone has seen rubbings, and no one has seen real money.
The "Da Qi Tong Bao" hidden by Dai Chunshi was called "Da Qi with Missing Corner" because its left corner was missing, but this one has disappeared;
In 1925, Dai Baoting accidentally caught one from the Xijiang countryside.
Because there were four small holes poked in it, it was known as the "Four Eyes Together". It is now collected in an art museum in Chicago, USA.
In other words, there is none in the country.
Now they are just looking for some circulated pictures from the Internet.
However, after seeing the picture, Zheng Yu and others' eyes lit up.
No wonder Chen Wenzhe suspected that such a copper coin was the handed down Daqi Tongbao. Mainly because of its appearance, handwriting and size, they were all too similar.
Although the writing at the bottom is very blurry, after removing the flat characters above, some traces can still be vaguely seen.
"How come it doesn't look like the same character at all?" Zheng Yu looked confused.
Cao Qingchun looked contemptuous again: "In ancient times, traditional Chinese characters were used, which were very complicated, but they don't look like them to me!"
Li Jinli was also confused, and he didn't see anything.
Chen Wenzhe was a little helpless. He was not a god, he was just suspicious.
If he could see that word clearly and it was really the same, could this coin still fall into his hands?
Therefore, Chen Wenzhe didn't even think about reading the word below because there was no need for it.
Now, Chen Wenzhe only hopes that Yu can see three words clearly.
If you really can't see that one character clearly, you can actually determine the identity of the coin by comparing it with the other three characters.
Chen Wenzhe found tools and planned to remove the flat character that was glued on.
If there was a way to read the handwriting below, it would save a lot of trouble.
It was no trouble at all to remove the flat characters on it. The wretched man just glued it on, soaked it in water, and pried it off with a knife.
After removing the flat characters on it, Chen Wenzhe carefully cleaned it again.
Unfortunately, this word was severely damaged, and all that can be seen now is two horizontal and one vertical, like the word "I".
The traditional Chinese characters are neat and the glyphs are a bit complicated. Not to mention the upper dots, the lower part that looks like the word "moon" is also missing.
