231 Antiques of the Compound Underground Treasures
The urban area of Yunhua is not big. From Yunhua Street, where Lin Heng is located, to the southern villa area, Lin Heng and Niu Daozi only walked for about thirty minutes. Of course, they came on electric donkeys.
This villa area is very famous in the surrounding towns. It was built three years ago. It shocked the world at the time because there were no villa areas in the surrounding towns. At most, they were luxury homes built by oneself.
It's just a small building.
During the construction of this villa area, there was definitely a big topic, but the weight loss situation was unexpected. In fact, it is reasonable to imagine that although everyone has become rich in recent years, there are still only a few people who can afford to buy villas and live in villas.
.Building villas where there are no villas will either make a lot of money or make a big loss. This company obviously made a big loss at the beginning.
However, the transfer came very quickly.
The construction of this villa was a loss at the beginning because it could not be sold. However, in recent years, Yunhua City and nearby cities have caught up with the good times of development. There are more and more wealthy people, and this villa has also been built.
Very good, someone wanted to buy a villa here. With one person, a second person will naturally follow suit. In less than three years, eighteen villas here have been sold.
The last set was sold recently, and its decoration was given to Ma Ge's decoration company.
Seeing the business boom, the real estate company once again started thinking about expanding the area behind and adding a few more buildings. Now they have bought the place there, and the demolition is nearby. It's not surprising that Niu Daozi got the news.
, because that is already public news, and I am afraid that people have come here countless times before him.
Passing through the villa from the front, Lin Heng came to the back of the villa area. This is an area like rural bungalows, which belongs to the urban area. There are rumors that the Yunhua Municipal Government sold this land for 200 million.
This is nothing in a big city, but here it is absolutely an astronomical figure.
Walking into the street, Niu Daozi said: "Let's go to the north compound..." Niu Daozi came and stepped on it. As soon as he came in, he took Lin Heng to the north compound. The compound there is also an old house.
, it can be regarded as a courtyard, but it is not a formal courtyard, but a courtyard with several rooms put together. This courtyard is also a landmark building here, and Lin Heng has been here before.
The two came to the courtyard. They saw two people walking out dejectedly. They looked at each other and Niu Duzi whispered: "I have seen these two people, they are from Sizhailou. It seems that they are also targeting them.
It’s here.”
Lin Heng nodded!
Yunhua City is not a big place, and the antique business is naturally not very prosperous. There are only two shops and a few stalls. One of these shops is Sizhailou and Baiyuge. Sizhailou specializes in agitation, while Baiyuge
It is a jade business, and antiques are a part-time job. Although Niu Duzi also does antique business, he does not do it here, but in Chaoshan, the provincial capital, where the big market is. There are hundreds of shops selling antiques alone, occupying
Two streets.
Closer to home - the two walked into the yard and saw a few old men and a few young people gathering together, arguing loudly. When the two heard this, they knew that the young men wanted to sell some things, which were old items.
, but a few old people were unwilling. The two people just now were found by a few young people. But they were driven away by the old people.
When Lin Heng and the two came in, they didn't see them. After a while, an old man saw the two of them and said with a frown: "Why are you here? Didn't I say I won't sell it?"
Compared to the old man, the young men were much more polite. They pulled Lin Heng and the two of them and said, "You two are also reselling antiques. We have really good things at home, so don't leave..."
"Go, go, go. Get out of here, kid. It's not your turn to make the decision at home." The old man had an angry look on his face.
Lin Heng and Niu Daozi looked at each other, Niu Daozi stepped forward and said: "Old man, please calm down first and listen to what I have to say..."
"You said, you said..." The old man waved his hand impatiently. Niu Daozi was not angry either, and said kindly: "Old man, I don't think I'll buy anything you don't sell. It's just some old stuff. You don't necessarily know about it.
.We are here just to find some good things that you don’t know about. As for what you care about, we will never make any decisions. Do you think this is okay?”
The old man glanced at Niu Duzi unexpectedly, his expression softened a lot, and he nodded and said: "You young man's words are quite reasonable. You guys heard this, I will not sell the things in that box. As for the others, you
It's up to you. Humph!" After snorting coldly, the old man returned to the house. Several other old people saw it and immediately followed him, while several young boys became dejected.
Seeing this, Lin Heng smiled, stepped forward and handed them a cigarette, and said: "Brothers, don't you want to be discouraged? This old house is quite old. Is there nothing else that is old except the things that the old man cares about?"
Already."
"We don't know anything else, but the old man's thing is definitely a treasure. It was passed down from our ancestors. When I was young, I heard the old man say that it has been passed down for seven generations."
After hearing this, Lin Heng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the thing the old man was guarding was so old! But he didn't care and continued: "Don't think so, you guys. That thing belongs to the old man now, but sooner or later it will also be yours.
.What’s the difference between selling it now and selling it later? Besides, I can’t say that thing will be more expensive in the future.”
Lin Heng's words made several boys sound happy. The boy who answered said: "Brother, what you said makes sense. Third boy, take the two brothers around the yard. If they like something, call us."
"good!"
A tough-looking young man came out. Lin Heng looked at his face and knew that this young man was not old, he should be seventeen years old, but he was tanned and looked more mature.
Under the leadership of Sanzi, Lin Heng and Niu Duozi started walking around in the yard. They first walked into the house on the west side and looked at each room. Don't tell me, this time it was really Niu Duozi's turn.
Luck struck, and when they entered the first room, they saw a broken mazaar. The mazaar was nothing, but the wood used to make the mazaar was huanghuali.
"Little brother, wait a minute!" Niu Dauzi stopped the third son in front and squatted in front of the maza. When the third son saw it, he immediately came forward and said: "Brother, this maza is still good."
Niu Daozi didn't lie to him, and said: "This maza is not a good thing, but the wood used to make it is good. This is huanghuali wood, which is relatively expensive. It's a pity that your maza is not very old, otherwise it would be worth a fortune."
Eighteen thousand."
When the third son heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "How much is this maza worth?"
Niu Duozi calculated it and said: "Little brother, I won't lie to you. This friend of mine is a craftsman and knows wood carving. When this thing gets into his hands, it can be turned into money. Let's do it. I will give you five thousand
.”
"Five thousand..." The third son exclaimed, and immediately shouted: "Eldest brother, second brother, come here quickly." Over there, the two people who had just entered the house heard the third son's call and immediately came over. The third son
He stepped forward and told the two of them about the maza. When they heard it, they immediately smiled. However, these two were not stupid, so they immediately paid back the price of "eight thousand."
Niu Dauzi frowned after hearing this and said: "Three brothers, although I, Niu Ben, am not well-known in Yunhua, I have been struggling in this industry for seven or eight years. Go out and ask around, I, Niu Ben, have never been
Don’t cheat. The price you give each time is not the highest in the industry, but it is also not low. Although your huanghuali is good, it can be sold for up to three thousand outside. I think it’s because my brother is a craftsman and can carve, so this is a lot.
Gave two thousand."
When the three of them heard this, one of them said: "Brother, don't be angry. Don't you think we don't understand the market? In this way, you and the third son will continue to watch, and we will discuss it."
Niu Duzi nodded, but his eyes were a little unhappy. Lin Heng could see clearly from the sidelines that these two people should have gone to ask about the price. In this day and age, no one is stupid. Even if they can't get the real price, they can still know it.
Probably. At the worst, you can ask online. But there is also water in it, so the calf is not afraid of it.
Under the leadership of Sanzi, Niu Duozi and Lin Heng started to interact again. Here, Lin Heng could tell at a glance which things were valuable. But he did not speak, just looked at it from the side. In the past, Lin Heng taught Niu Duozi something
, this is how he did it, otherwise how could he get started so quickly.
Soon, Niu Duzi found two more objects in the two rooms, one was a porcelain plate with a corner missing, which looked like it was from the Qing Dynasty; the other was a comic book, written about famous ancient stories.
Holding these three things, Niu Duzi walked up to the other two people and asked: "How is it? Are you settled?"
"Of course!" The two of them smiled and said, "We will pay Brother Niu's price." The other person saw what Niu Duzi was holding and said, "What? These two are also good things?"
Niu Duzi nodded and said: "This porcelain plate is from the late Qing Dynasty. If it is well preserved, it can be sold for 10,000 yuan. It's just a broken corner, so I'll give you 3,000 yuan. You all know that this comic book was not valuable before, but now there are people who specialize in it
Get this. Your copy is well preserved. I’ll give you eight thousand. What do you think?”
The two of them could not have imagined that a comic book would be worth more than a porcelain plate from the late Qing Dynasty. They took the two items from Niu Duzi's hands in disbelief and looked at them over and over. Neither of them paid attention to the presence of Niu Duzi and Lin Heng, and immediately took them out.
They searched the Internet on their mobile phones. After a while, the two of them smiled and accepted the price of the calf, and the three items were sold for 16,000.
The price offered by Niu Duzi is indeed not low, but in this industry, the price difference is very big. Not to mention huanghuali, if you just sell it individually, five thousand is enough, but after it is made into something, you can sell it for five thousand, then
The size of the maza is enough for Lin Heng to make twenty items. This is a twenty-fold difference in price. As for comic strips, porcelain plates, and cows, he can make a profit.
He didn't make much money from the comic strips, which were just like that, but Lin Heng could repair the porcelain plate. As he said, if it was well preserved, it would be worth ten thousand. After Lin Heng repaired it, he could sell it for ten thousand, which was seven more.
thousand.
It seems that Niuduzi is very dark, but it is much better than others, and he still needs to repair something. This is Lin Heng. If it were in another place, no one would repair it for you.
After getting three harvests, Niu Duzi became more interested, and the two brothers were also very happy. They personally took Niu Duzi and Lin Heng around the yard.
After walking around, Lin Heng stopped at an open space. The ground was dirt, and a tree root was exposed in an inconspicuous place. Most people may not be able to see what this tree is, but Lin Heng could tell at a glance that it was a tree called
Iron plow tree. In ancient times, this tree could be used to make farm tools. It was very hard, harder than ordinary copper and iron, and was very popular among farmers.
But now, iron plows are almost extinct. Even if they exist, they are protected by the country and are almost inaccessible to outsiders. There is such a tree here, and looking at the traces of the tree roots, it is an iron plow that has been struck by lightning.
