Chapter 24 Manchu and Chinese Money, Membership Points
Han Kongque ignored Fat Liu. Although many vendors on this street knew Han Kongque, few knew about Han Kongque's ability to recognize treasures except the few at his door.
Except for Fat Liu and Lao Ji who were very familiar with Han Peacock, Han Peacock, the other vendor, had not come into contact with them. It was just that Han Peacock often visited this street and made them all familiar with each other. There were even many people on the street.
It is possible that the stall does not recognize Han Peacock, which is the result of Han Peacock’s deliberate efforts.
In the past ten years, although Han Kongque had picked up and missed twenty or thirty times, not many people knew about it. Among the people who knew about it, Fat Liu happened to be there, so it was really not easy for Han Kongque to pick up the leaks from Fat Liu.
, this is also one of the reasons why Han Peacock can not make friends with the vendors on this street.
There is no benefit in getting to know them at all. If they know Han Kongque's ability, Han Kongque will have to be like Fat Liu if he wants to buy something from their stall in the future. He hasn't even bought anything yet, which will make them wary.
Although Fat Liu only knew that Han Kongque had bought a lot of things on this street. As for how many things he had picked up, it was really hard to say, but from the several times Han Kongque had received treasures, he knew that Han Kongque was still quite capable.
He was still very wary of Han Peacock, which Han Peacock knew very well. However, Han Peacock was not afraid of Fat Liu deliberately raising the price.
Although Han Kongque made a lot of mistakes, he asked Gu Lie to make several major mistakes. The only time he really picked up the mistakes was the most recent one, which was the Han Dynasty ancient book and his family's Han family tree.
.
So Han Kongque ignored Fat Liu and went straight through his stall to check. Fat Liu's copper coins were obviously bought from other vendors.
There are a lot of ancient coins sold on the antique street, but most of them are fake. Although there are also a lot of real ancient coins, they are just ordinary goods, like the ones at Fat Liu's stall now.
These copper coins of the Qing Dynasty are not rare items. Even if there are people who are willing to collect them, they can just collect a set. Therefore, most of the ordinary copper coins like the Five Emperors Coins are only circulated in the market and cannot be sold at all.
I don’t know what happened to Fat Liu this time, so he actually took over so many ordinary goods.
Such things are not even as easy to sell as his high imitation porcelain. You must know that Fat Liu usually plays with porcelain. This seems to be a family tradition. Because Han Kongque has no one to ask about, he doesn’t know who in Fat Liu’s family is.
Collect everyone.
It is because of this that Fat Liu has a very good understanding of porcelain. The high-imitation porcelain in his hand is definitely worth more than the ancient coins and is easier to sell. It is not that easy to switch to playing with ancient coins now.
of.
Han Peacock was very fast. Although Fat Liu had a lot of copper coins here, most of them were ordinary goods, so Han Peacock quickly went through the pile of copper coins.
Don't tell me, there are really a few copper coins worth collecting here. Of course, Han Peacock has no intention of collecting this now. He wants to make money now, so he took these few copper coins in his hand without hesitation.
He and Fat Liu usually just chatted and stuff. Although they had been in contact for a long time, they didn't have a heart-to-heart relationship, and they weren't considered real friends, so if he made a mistake here, Han Kongque would not have any psychological burden at all.
Fat Liu became excited when he saw that Han Peacock really caught a few copper coins in his hand. He had sold these coins several times, but he could never get a high price. Unexpectedly, Han Peacock was interested in a few coins now. Here,
As long as there is a good thing, he will make a profit.
"Are you really interested in this? Isn't my batch of copper coins good? Let me see if you are interested in my treasures?" A businessman like Fat Liu is still very cunning.
Han Peacock sneered: "What kind of treasure can you have in your hand? Who doesn't know the Five Emperors' Money on this street? Well, I want these coins, and these."
With that said, Han Kongque raised his hand and threw out two Shunzhi Tongbao, then grabbed two Kangxi Tongbao from the stall, and threw them all to Fat Liu.
"Your eyes are poisonous. Among these copper coins, these are the only ones that are good. You just picked them out for me at random?" Fat Liu looked at the few big coins in his hand and said with a little admiration.
"Isn't this your treasure? If you take these as treasures, then I won't take them away from others." Han Peacock laughed at him.
Fat Liu said indifferently: "These copper coins are the best of my coins. It is rare to see this Shunzhi coin with the Chinese character "东" on it. Moreover, this coin is in such good condition, both in terms of luster and handwriting.
So perfect, Shunzhi Tongbao like this is rare."
"I know all these. Shunzhi's Beidong and Ning, Kangxi's Beichang and Lin. These are all worth collecting. How much do you want them to cost?"
The coins picked out by Han Peacock are all in Manchu and Chinese characters, with the inscription "Shunzhi Tongbao" in Chinese on the front and the name of the Bureau of Records on the back. On the left is the name of the money bureau in Manchu and on the right is the name of the money bureau in Chinese.
In the 17th year of Shunzhi, the Ministry of Household Affairs decided to reopen all money saving bureaus. Except for Baoquan and Baoyuan bureaus, the money minted by them was still in Manchu language. The inscriptions on the money minted by other money saving bureaus were all in Manchu and Han language.
, there are twelve rounds in total.
That is, "Lin, Ning, Yuan, Xuan, Tong, Jiang, Dong, He, Ji, Chang, Zhejiang, Shaanxi." This type of money is better made, but has the largest casting volume and more surviving ones.
The ones Han Peacock picked out were Shunzhi Tongbao and Kangxi Tongbao in Manchu and Chinese characters. In Chinese, there are the characters Dong, Lin, Ning and Chang.
The Qing Dynasty minted a lot of coins, and it was also very messy. It took 295 years in the Qing Dynasty from the time when Emperor Hachi called the country Jin in the Northeast to the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Xuantong Emperor Puyi, abdicated.
Just in the Xianfeng Dynasty, there were more than 500 kinds of money making, and it seemed that they were limited to Chongbao. There were dozens or hundreds of versions in one year.
There are also short-lived coins and commemorative coins such as "Qixiang" and "Daya", as well as machine-made coins from various places. These are familiar to everyone who is involved in the antique industry. Obviously, the ones Han Peacock picked out are not very precious types.
Fat Liu said that these copper coins were very small, and that was only in relative terms. Compared with ordinary coins with bare backs and no writing, these copper coins with full Chinese characters were smaller.
But compared with rare coins such as "Qixiang" and "Daya", the coins picked out by Han Peacock are too many, so the prices of these coins are not high, but they have a little more collection value than ordinary coins.
Of course Fat Liu knows these things, and Han Kongque is not a stick, so he can't fool him, so he said: "These ancient coins are in such good condition, I don't want more, I only charge you eighty yuan each."
.”
Han Peacock was speechless. He just looked at Fat Liu.
Looking at Han Peacock's expression, Fat Liu knew that his asking price was too high: "Too high? How about sixty? Brother, you said you would take care of my business. No matter how low the price is, I will lose it. It's a pity that I haven't paid it yet today."
Open.”
Han Peacock sneered: "No, I call you brother. If you ask for prices like this, I don't think you will be able to open a business in the future. If you don't know the details of these copper coins and are afraid that I will pick them up, it doesn't matter if you ask for prices like this.
But you and I know these copper coins very well, so the asking price of sixty is too harsh, right?"
The fat on Fat Liu's face trembled a few times, and he cursed in his heart. He already knew that Han Peacock was not easy to deal with, so why did he need such a high price?
Han Peacock picked out a lot of the best-quality copper coins from the pile of copper coins, added the original four coins, and collected fifteen coins, and then said: "There are fifteen coins in total. I will give you one hundred and two coins."
Eight dollars.”
Fat Liu's face trembled: "Are you too cruel? Just drop it ten times?"
"How can it be ten times? Is it nine times? I'm not haggling. Except for the four memorization coins, the other eleven are ordinary tongbao. Two yuan for one of these is not cheap. I'll give it to you.
An eight yuan is already worth your while.
You should know that if these are not ordinary goods, they will definitely not be in your hands. I think you know it very well, so when you buy these copper coins, they will definitely not cost more than two yuan each." Han Kongque affirmed.
Fat Liu was a little embarrassed to be told by Han Peacock. They were so familiar and knew each other well, which really made Han Peacock guess.
He received these copper coins at junk prices. Otherwise, he specializes in the porcelain business, how could he sell ancient coins?
Besides, he doesn’t know much about ancient coins. Although he has some basic knowledge, that knowledge is not enough to gain a foothold in the ancient coin industry. He understands this very clearly, so the price of ancient coins is high.
He will never take over.
It is because these are ordinary Tongbao, and even the counterfeiters are not interested in making these cheap goods, so he can receive them with confidence.
Because of these reasons, Fat Liu did not expect to find any valuable treasures in these copper coins. After seeing the few copper coins selected by Han Kongque, he lost much excitement.
Eleven ordinary Tongbao are worth about ten yuan at most, so the four memorized coins are equivalent to selling for one hundred and ten yuan, so on average, they are almost thirty yuan each, thirty yuan
It's not cheap to pay for a piece of this kind of memorization.
No matter how you think about it, Han Kongque cannot take advantage of him. Fatty Liu said: "Okay, okay, who told us to be friends? You can take the hundred and two."
Fat Liu took another look at the four copper coins in his hand. They were indeed ordinary Tong Bao written in Chinese and Mandarin. There was no way such copper coins could be leaked.
"Look carefully, but no matter how you look at it, there are still two Shunzhi Tongbao and two Kangxi Tongbao. It is impossible to turn them into Qixiang Chongbao."
Han Peacock looked at Fat Liu's actions in amusement. This kid was deeply afraid that he would pick something up in his stall, but no matter how he defended himself, Han Peacock would still take advantage of him.
Although this kid also plays antiques, what he plays with antiques is actually culture. Without a certain amount of cultural knowledge accumulated in his heart, he really can't play with it.
Just like the four coins with Chinese characters bought by Han Peacock now, they all have certain and beautiful meanings. Although there are a lot of them in existence, as long as they are combined slightly, the price will increase several times.
