After wandering the two lanes in the hall, Wu Xiaoli couldn't help but shook her head in disappointment. When she came here before, she could still see one or two things that caught her eye. But after not coming here for a year or two, such good things have almost disappeared.
.
"Let's go to the second floor!"
Wu Xiaoli has lost interest in other places she hasn't visited yet. I'm afraid she won't be able to find any good things on the first floor. Although the second floor is more expensive, there will be more good things accordingly.
Li Yang smiled bitterly and followed him, still holding the big Buddha statue in his hand. Li Yang now regretted why he didn't wait until later to buy it again. The weight of this Buddha statue was not light.
The antique city has a total of four floors. The second floor is not like a lobby or a simple glass cabinet just like a stall. The second floor is full of separate facades, which is very neat.
Correspondingly, the things on the second floor are much less than those on the first floor, and there are not many customers visiting. A dozen or so people are constantly going in and out of several shops.
After walking through a few shops, Wu Xiaoli once again showed a disappointed look. In her eyes, these shops were not antique shops at all, but purely handicraft shops. Occasionally she saw one or two really good things, but the shopkeepers deliberately put them there.
Attractive, the prices are ridiculously high.
"Xiao Li, let's take a rest!"
Li Yang, who was following behind, couldn't hold on any longer and hurriedly grabbed Wu Xiaoli. Wu Xiaoli had just pretended to be his girlfriend, but now she seemed to be alright.
"Okay, let's go out for a drink after seeing this one!"
Wu Xiaoli nodded. She also felt a little tired. Looking at antiques is a very demanding job. Wu Xiaoli has seen so many things. She would definitely be lying if she said she was not tired.
Entering the last store, Wu Xiaoli's eyes immediately lit up. She walked directly to the counter inside and looked carefully at the tea set placed on the wall cabinet inside.
Li Yang sat at the door, unzipped his clothes to dissipate the heat inside, and finally turned back to take a closer look at the last store he was going to visit today.
The shop is only a dozen square meters in size, and the decoration is quite different from other shops. There are glass cabinets on the front and left, and an old-style table is placed on the right, with some ancient coins and old banknotes scattered on it.
thing.
There was only one young man guarding this small shop. When Li Yang looked at the young man, the young man was also looking at him, and both of them were immediately stunned.
"Boss"
"little six?"
Two voices sounded at the same time, and Li Yang immediately walked inside regardless of the Buddha statue on the ground. He never expected that he would meet his old best friend from school and the sixth child in the same dormitory here.
"Why are you here?"
Li Yang looked at the old classmates in front of him in surprise. When they were in college, there were six people in a dormitory. Li Yang was the oldest and ranked the eldest. The young man in front of him was the youngest. Because he was the youngest, Li Yang had no one in school.
Take less care of him. Moreover, among the six people in their dormitory, three have the surname Li, namely the eldest, Li Yang, the fourth, Li Pei, and the sixth, Li Can.
"This is my uncle's shop. After graduation, I went to Guangzhou to work hard for a few months. I came back without any results, and then I have been helping in my uncle's shop. My uncle has gone to receive goods these days, so I
Watch here alone!"
The young man said excitedly, and kept looking at Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli as he spoke.
"I see, no wonder I haven't been able to contact you!" Li Yang nodded, with excitement on his face. Seeing Wu Xiaoli looking at them, he hurriedly pulled the young man to Wu Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, I
Let me introduce to you, this is my classmate and roommate Li Can, who is also the sixth child in our dormitory!"
"Xiao Liu, this is my colleague Wu Xiaoli. I now work at Mingyang Anshi Jewelry!"
"Colleague, is this my sister-in-law?" Li Can chuckled, with a face full of humor: "My sister-in-law is so beautiful, I'm even jealous of my boss!"
"No, don't talk nonsense, we are just colleagues!"
Li Yang hurriedly grabbed Li Can and glanced at Wu Xiaoli secretly. The girl in front of him looked beautiful, but her temper was not something that ordinary people could bear. If the misunderstanding got serious, Li Yang would not be able to bear it and walked away.
"Li Yang is right. We are just colleagues. You are his classmate. I will call you Xiaoliu too. This name sounds nicer!"
Wu Xiaoli turned around and smiled at Li Can, and at the same time quietly glared at Li Yang. Li Yang could only smile bitterly at the side. This aunt still had an opinion, but he didn't get angry in front of his classmates, so he kept it to himself.
Save face.
"Okay, my former classmates all called me Xiaoliu, but now I think of Xiaoliu as my nickname!" Li Can agreed with a silly smile, and then suddenly patted his head: "Look at me, I'm so confused. I'm patronizing you."
I forgot to pour tea while talking, please wait for me!"
Li Can hurriedly ran to the counter. While Li Can was busy, Li Yang hurriedly approached Wu Xiaoli and whispered: "My classmate likes to joke, don't mind!"
"What should I do if I just mind?" Wu Xiaoli rolled her eyes at Li Yang.
"I will make amends to you later. Otherwise, how about this Buddha statue be used as a birthday gift from me to your grandpa!"
Li Yang smiled bitterly and looked back at the Buddha statue. There was a treasure hidden in the belly of the Buddha statue. If it weren't for Wu Xiaoli in front of him, he would really be reluctant to give it away.
Wu Xiaoli didn't even look at the Buddha statue, and snorted coldly: "My grandpa doesn't want such a rough thing, but since you are so sincere, I will remember it first and ask you for it later!"
"Okay, don't regret it if you don't want to!"
Li Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head. He gave away the treasure for free, and Li Yang had no choice.
"Come, have a drink of water, the shop is small, please take care of us if we don't serve you well!"
Li Can came over with two glasses of water, handed the tea to the two of them, and asked with a smile: "Don't regret anything? Tell me too!"
"It's nothing. I just found a treasure and offered it to Xiaoli as a birthday gift for her grandfather, but she still doesn't like it!" Li Yang touched his nose and said helplessly.
"Where did you find this treasure? Let me see!"
Li Yang turned back and pointed at the big Buddha statue at the door. He didn't have to worry about anyone stealing the Buddha statues there. If he didn't have a real treasure in his belly, Li Yang wouldn't be willing to wander around holding these Buddha statues.
"It looks like an old thing to me, but it's not that far away, from the late Qing and Ming Dynasties, right?" Li Can walked to the door, knelt down and observed it carefully for a while, then raised his head and said to Li Yang.
Li Yang smiled and nodded: "Yes, Xiaoli and the stall owner both said it was from the Republic of China period, eight hundred yuan, how about it?"
"Not bad!" Li Can stood up and walked back with a smile.
There is something Li Can didn't say. The price of 800 yuan is OK, but the collection value of this thing is too low. Old things are also very particular. Things with rough appearance and average workmanship have very low appreciation potential. Those with good appearance and workmanship have very low appreciation potential.
Exquisite things will become more and more valuable.
