133 Fool again(1/2)
Chu Xiangqian knew that ordinary Yuan Datou would not be worth anything even in the future, but commemorative coins were different.
Holding two silver coins, two voices of 2 and 2 gold scrolls came continuously in my mind, and I knew that this Yuan Datou was indeed as Liu Guangtian's classmate said, and he treasured it much more than the ordinary version.
But it’s actually not much more expensive.
He put away the silver dollars and threw two cigarettes to the two of them.
After ordering it, he said, "If you get me something good from now on, I will treat you to fish or even meat, do you understand?"
Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang nodded hurriedly.
I was on the street in the evening, eating fish stewed with shredded radish until I was full. I naturally believed Chu Qianqian's words.
After sending Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang away, Chu Xiangqian held two silver coins in his hand and played with them for a while.
Secretly, Liu Guangtian’s ways are really a bit wild.
You can always meet a few classmates or friends who have good things hidden in their homes.
It's just 4 big fishes for 2 Yuan Datou. Compared with the antiques obtained from the old man Gong in the commissioned store, it seems not worth it.
Four fishes, if given to Old Man Gong, would be enough to exchange for a good piece of porcelain.
After thinking about it, I still plan to let Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang continue to do this. The size is also a channel. Maybe they will meet the second Nan Guangsheng at some time.
I remembered that I got four calligraphy and paintings of Tang Bohu from Nan Guangsheng.
1 piece of bamboo and stone by Zheng Banqiao.
3 paintings of flowers, birds, auspicious cranes and calligraphy by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty.
There is also a calligraphy and painting by Wen Zhengming.
I can't help but feel a little bit excited.
When Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang saw that Chu Xiangqian was fine, they asked in a low voice, "Brother, after Jiefang and I go home, there will definitely be a fuss at home about the meat and vegetables at noon.
So Jiefang and I discussed it this afternoon and wanted to ask you what would happen if Jiefang and I got copper coins, silver dollars, or other antiques from family members.
Can I send it to you for inspection?
If you like it, just give us some so we don’t lose money."
Chu Qianqian thought for a while, silver dollars are silver after all.
In the hearts of Chinese people, this gold and silver is money, which is always a bit unsightly and taboo.
"Just know the silver coins yourself, don't tell anyone else. You can ask your family members about copper coins, calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain. As for the price?"
Chu Qianqian thought for a while, "I will give you copper coins, calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain at 15% of the price offered by the entrusted store. And I will only give game meat, not money, do you understand?"
When I trade with Mr. Gong, calligraphy, paintings and other antiques are calculated at 30% of the price at the entrusted store. Then the price of meat has doubled again, calculated at 2 yuan per pound.
But if he told Mr. Yan that the meat in his hands was twice as expensive as the pigeon market, he would immediately feel that he had suffered a big loss.
It's better to say from the beginning that we will only charge 15% of the entrusted store's bid.
If the Yan family thinks it can be sold, then sell it.
If you feel you are losing money, then you are not short of others, you can get three melons and two dates from outside.
Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang nodded hurriedly.
If you don't give money, it's not a transaction. It's a mutual adjustment between residents. It's okay if others find out.
After returning home, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang were immediately surrounded by their parents and brothers.
Yan Laojie even sniffed around Yan Jiefang and knew that Yan Jiefang didn't come back for dinner at night and turned out to be drinking.
When he asked about the meat and vegetables in the street cafeteria at noon, Yan Jiefang hurriedly told the chief of the administrative office that he and Liu Guangtian were not allowed to take the meat and vegetables home.
Now the two families are suddenly in trouble.
The two families have long been looking forward to Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang bringing this meat dish back for everyone to enjoy.
But if the street doesn’t allow you to take them with you, doesn’t that mean that all the benefits are taken by Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang!
Liu Haizhong only asked Liu Guangtian carefully for a long time, and could only get sulky, but he didn't do what he had done before, grabbing a stick and beating him.
As for antiques such as copper coins, calligraphy and paintings.
There is nothing he can do about calligraphy, painting, and porcelain bangs, but he is a level 6 blacksmith who knows a lot of people and has a way to get copper coins.
Even the steel rolling mill itself is a large consumer of copper.
Liu Haizhong thought for a while, then looked at the alarm clock and saw that the time was just a little after 8 o'clock. He said hello to the second aunt, actually put on a scarf and hat and went out.
Yan Fugui’s place is lively.
Not only did Lao Yan and his wife feel that their second son had taken advantage of them, but their eldest son, Yan Jiecheng, their third son, Yan Jiekuang, and their youngest daughter, Yan Jiedi, were all clamoring to eat meat.
If Yan Jiefang refuses to pay, he will be asked to pay compensation.
Yan Jiefang is not stupid. He and Liu Guangtian have discussed countermeasures long ago, and Chu Xiangqian also answered questions.
"Dad, I won't let you take back the lunch meal. That's what the leader of the administrative office said.
Not to mention me and Liu Guangtian, even Brother Chu would not offend the leaders of other people’s offices just for this matter.
However, I didn’t get the lunch meal back, so I knew it was my problem.
So, now I’m going to give you a way to make money as compensation, do you want to listen?”
Yan Fugui's family's eyes suddenly lit up. They are definitely the most active people in the yard when it comes to making money.
Yan Fugui pulled Yan Jiefang to sit down and asked with a smile, "Tell me, what benefits did Xiao Chu give you?"
Yan Jiefang was stunned and secretly thought that his biological father was his biological father. He had guessed it without even saying it himself.
He casually told the story about how Nan Guangsheng used a dozen copper coins to exchange for 5 pounds of white flour.
Yan Jiefang is lying.
At first, Liu Guangtian said that he would give him 5 yuan to help him buy the dozen copper coins that Nan Guangsheng had.
But after Chu Qianqian thought about it, he only agreed to give 10 pounds of white noodles.
Moreover, Liu Guangtian asked for 2 kilograms as a favor fee, so Nan Guangsheng received 8 kilograms.
But when it came to Yan Jiefang's mouth, it was 5 pounds.
However, at that time, white flour cost 4.5 cents per pound in the pigeon market. Now, it costs 5.6 cents at least.
And things like copper coins, in turn, have to be priced down. After all, the rarer the food, the lower the value of copper coins and other antiques.
Yan Fugui ignored the excited Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiekang and his little daughter, who was frowning because of her young age.
After thinking about it, he got up and went into his bedroom, holding a Yuan Datou, intending to go to Chu Xiangqian to ask about the price.
Yan Jiefang was stunned, secretly thinking that he didn't mention the silver dollar, but his father actually took a silver dollar to find Brother Chu.
He suddenly became anxious, fearing that Chu Xiangqian might misunderstand him, so he pulled Yan Fugui and said, "Dad, Brother Chu said he didn't want any silver coins because he was afraid of trouble."
Yan Fugui was stunned for a moment, then sighed and nodded, "Although silver coins are no longer allowed to circulate, Xiao Chu's concerns are right."
He turned around and went back to the bedroom, found four copper coins, and then went to find Chu Xiangqian.
Yan Fugui attended a private school and became a primary school teacher. His knowledge in some aspects is much higher than that of Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai.
After copper coins and silver coins were abolished, for a period of time, the price was much lower than the price of copper and silver. People like Yan Fugui would naturally pay low prices, and even prostitute some for free and keep them at home.
For this reason, he also specially found some teachers who knew antiques and consulted with his predecessors.
Although he has not learned a lot, he still knows a little about antiques.
It's a pity that his family has trouble even eating, and they have no intention of focusing on antiques.
When they arrived at Chu Qianqian's house, the two of them were polite for a while, and Yan Fugui put four copper coins and a Yuan Datou on the table.
Chu Qianqian didn't waste any time, reached out to pick it up, and heard the voice of 1 1 coming from his mind.
"Third uncle, 4 copper coins and 4 cents, I will give you 2 yuan of this silver dollar, how about it?"
Yan Fugui hurriedly shook his head, "Silver coins are sold outside for 2.5 yuan, but the four copper coins I have are all good things. If they don't cost 1 yuan each, I will suffer a big loss."
Chu shrugged forward and put the copper coins in his hand back on the table, "Then keep it for yourself."
Seeing that Chu Xiangqian refused, Yan Fugui quickly apologized and the two finally talked for a while.
Chu Xiangqian put away the copper coins and silver dollars, "Third uncle, I won't give you the money. How about giving you a 3-pound pheasant?"
Yan Fugui silently calculated. He took the three kilograms of pheasants home, fed them more wheat bran, and sold them at the nearby pigeon market tomorrow. He might be able to sell them for 3 yuan.
But within a few seconds, he realized that the pigeon market in Yonghe Temple had been closed down. Before the Chinese New Year, how could anyone dare to come out to do business?
Chu Qianqian chuckled and came up with an idea, "Third uncle, in addition to being the chief of the security department, I am also the squad leader of the street canteen. From now on, if you catch fish, or catch hares, pheasants, etc. outside the city,
, you can take it to the street.
However, fish are divided into different sizes, ranging from one to three hairs.
How about pheasants and hares for 1 yuan a pound?"
Yan Fugui was stunned for a moment, then became envious, and his face turned red with jealousy.
