After visiting a few stalls, Chen Ran was really interested. The things on the stalls in front of him were better than those in Beihuan Antique City in Zhongdu. At least there were more real things. The antiques in Zhongdu
The city gives people the feeling of a big city, but the antique city in front of them has a bit more of a rural atmosphere. However, there are many real things, but there are no good ones. They are just some daily necessities of the people in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.
Things like bowls, basins, and jars at that time.
While walking around, I absorbed energy apertures. Along the way, I absorbed more than twenty. The reason is that the quality of these things is not very good. If you come across good things, you will lose money.
, and now when I meet a real guy, I can earn more or less one or two, and I have accumulated more than twenty.
When the row came to the end, Chen Ran actually saw a pole seller in a small stall. In addition to a long pole, there was also a broom and a hoe pole. The whole stall only had these three things. However,
Don't underestimate these three things.
Like this shoulder pole, Chen Ran didn't use the energy aperture to detect it at all. He could tell at a glance that it was a good thing. The entire shoulder pole should be made of rosewood, a type of mahogany.
Mahogany is also divided into third and sixth grades. The first grade is naturally huanghuali and purple tremble wood. This refers to my country's Hainan huanghuali and Indian rosewood. These two types of wood are basically out of print, and almost all finished furniture has entered the market. Auction collection market. The price of a piece of furniture is hundreds of thousands or millions of RMB.
The second grade is black rosewood, ebony wood, and African rosewood. This is the best mahogany furniture that can be seen in the market today. Since rosewood in Southeast Asia has been exhausted, black rosewood is generally called "red sandalwood" in the market.
"Wood", the number of such furniture is already small, and it is rare to find it. It can be said that it has a price but no market.
The third grade is made of red rosewood. Like the last time Ning Wei took Chen Ran and Gao Qiang to dig out the old house, the pair of mahogany chairs that Lao Chen took out were made of red rosewood. The fourth grade is made of other rosewood.
Wood, such as yellow rosewood and white rosewood in Southeast Asia, including red rosewood produced in areas with poor market recognition, is the mainstream product of Chinese rosewood furniture and is called mid-range rosewood furniture.
Generally speaking, the market price of a set of such furniture is around 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. As long as it is rosewood furniture, it will continue to increase in value for generations. In the history of Chinese mahogany furniture,
The status of rosewood as "redwood" has never been shaken.
The fifth grade is Southeast Asian rosewood, chicken wing wood, leguminous "red sandalwood" wood, and South American and African white rosewood. However, the quality and price of rosewood are better than other ordinary rosewood.
This shoulder pole is made of this kind of rosewood. For the increasingly scarce mahogany furniture market, this shoulder pole is undoubtedly good.
The sixth grade is rosewood from South America and Africa, which is more durable and affordable, but has no collection value.
While Chen Ran released an energy aperture to detect the age of the pole, he casually asked about the price. Before the stall owner could answer, he detected the age of the pole. It was quite old. It was actually three hundred years old.
It seems that it has been passed down for many generations. Of course, by the way, it also earned him two apertures.
The stall owner looked to be in his forties, and he was dressed like a farmer. He was also very honest. When Chen Ran asked about the price, he smiled and said: "Young man, this thing is old these days."
It is no longer of use. Experts in the ancient building have appraised it and said it is a good thing, worth tens of thousands, and will be sold to those rich people for fun..."
The stall owner saw that Chen Ran was not old, so he didn't expect Chen Ran to buy it. Therefore, he said that it was sold to those rich people. Obviously, in his eyes, only those rich people would buy it.
Only people would buy such useless gadgets.
When Chen Ran heard what the stall owner said, he couldn't help but glance at the crowded door of the Literary and Art Association, thinking that no wonder there were a lot of real things in the antique market in front of him. It turned out that they had all been authenticated. The stall owner said he was an expert on ancient buildings.
, must be an expert from the Literary and Art Association. In this case, it will not be easy to pick up the missing items in this antique market. It is not that it is not easy, but it is simply impossible, unless you encounter those old things that even the experts are blinded by.
Although there were some second-rate dealers running around in the market, Chen Ran saw that most of them were selling imitations of old ones, and there was no chance of them being picked up.
For those who want to pick up leaks, such an antique market is undoubtedly not interesting at all, because there are no leaks to pick up at all. However, if you look at the problem from another angle, you have to admire it. Obviously, the Literary and Art Association has created
Such an antique market can be said to be completely and sincerely thinking about the people.
Now that he saw this, Chen Ran gave up the thought of picking up the leaks and had a few more words with the stall owner.
It turns out that the stall owners are out-and-out farmers, and they still come from the same township as Chen Ran's hometown, but one is in the southernmost part of the township and the other is in the northern part of the township.
The stall owner never thought that he would have a baby or something in his family, but some time ago, the literary and art association held an activity to go to the countryside, and a lot of people were sent to every township in the county. These people were designated to be sent to the countryside.
People went to every village and every household and conducted a county-wide appraisal. Of course, the main purpose at that time was to encourage villagers to bring old things to the county literary association for free appraisal. At first, no one cared about it.
However, after word spread that someone from a certain village took their belongings to the county for appraisal and made a large sum of money, it became a sensation. It can be said that there was a wave of antique craze in the entire county.
Needless to say, the stall owner brought all the old things from his home for appraisal. Unexpectedly, he didn’t have any antiques like bowls and jars at home, but he came up with a few pieces of rosewood furniture, except for the ones on his stall.
Three, there were originally two chairs, but they have been sold. When the stall owner told Chen Ran, he was so happy that Chen Ran was so happy when he heard it.
Quite deep.
Chen Ran asked the stall owner about the prices of these three items. After listening to the stall owner's quotation, Chen Ran nodded secretly. The price was basically neither too high nor too low. It was just right. He thought about it and decided to
I paid for it.
For him, the shoulder pole has little practical value, but the broom and hoe pole are still somewhat useful, especially if this broom is placed in the yard. If someone who knows the goods sees it, it is also very honorable. It is a broom for home use.
They are all made of rosewood, and they are worth a small amount of thousands, and they are still thrown casually in the yard?
As for the hoe, it's easy to handle. If Li Yuzhi has free time, she can plant some flowers and plants in the yard, which will be put to use.
Of course, the most important reason for buying it was that Chen Ran thought it would be interesting to collect some of these things.
When he heard that Chen Ran wanted to buy these three things from him, the stall owner thought Chen Ran was joking. Chen Ran confirmed it two or three times before he believed it and followed Chen Ran with the three things in his arms.
Chen Ran had not spent all the 150,000 in cash he carried in the car, so he had to give cash directly to the stall owner. Opposite the Cultural Palace, there is not only the postal service, but also the ICBC. A little further ahead, there is also a rural credit cooperative, and the stall owner
It’s also convenient if you want to save money.
When the stall owner saw Chen Ran opening the door of the off-road vehicle, he completely believed that Chen Ran was going to buy these three things from him. He couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. Although experts said that his things were worth so much money.
, but he was undoubtedly still unsure. Just think about it, who still uses a pole these days? When the expert appraised it for him, he also asked the same question, but the expert smiled and told him that it is not necessary now.
, but some rich people like to play with it.
At this moment, in his eyes, Chen Ran has undoubtedly become that kind of rich man.
"Put it away. After you leave the gate, there is a bank opposite. You can just deposit the money in the bank." After Chen Ran ordered 19,000 yuan and handed it to the stall owner, he explained to him.
"It's so troublesome to deposit money in the bank. When you want to use the money, you have to go to the city to get it. You can just take it home and hide it."
The stall owner checked it three times before he felt relieved and grinned at Chen Ran.
The stall owner said this, but Chen Ran didn't say anything. He poured the remaining money in the wallet directly into the car, and then gave the wallet to the stall owner and asked him to put the money. The stall owner didn't want it, but Chen Ran didn't want it.
After he said the bag was worthless, he took it.
After the stall owner left, Chen Ran stuffed the three items, the pole, into the back seat, closed the car door, carried the fruit he bought for Wang Zhiqing, and returned to the antique market. Only then did he step into the courtyard.
Suddenly there was a whisper: "Hey, isn't this Chen Ran?"
