? Xu Qing understood now that this bottle of pills is indeed good and can save lives at critical times.
"Huzi, what is your name Tiger?"
"Liu Menghu."
The two of them walked out of the woods while chatting. Liu Menghu sent Xu Qing to the side of the road, helped him stop a car and let him get in, and then turned around and left.
There is a saying that it is better to untie enemies than to make knots. After Xu Qing helped Zhou Xiazi untie his acupuncture points, he felt relieved. He stopped the car at the intersection of Antique Street. He got out of the car and walked in with a smile.
Xu Qing has a strange feeling for antique street. This is the place where he made his first pot of gold, and this is where he started his first business. Maybe it is really destined!
Walking into the antique street, you can hear shouts and shouts one after another. It is the peak season now, and there are many people here to hunt for treasures, and the vendors are also shouting harder.
Xu Qing walked around, scanning the stalls with his clairvoyant eyes. If he didn't find anything special, he would be too lazy to bend down. Besides, he was also paying attention to one person, Mrs. Hua.
"Authentic Han Badao jade cicada, jade grip, cheap and good quality..." A small stall owner yelled at the top of his voice. He also held the jade grip pig in his hand and shook it at passers-by, as if his thing was unique.
portion.
Both jade cicadas and jade handles are used for burials. During the Han Dynasty, the ancients held the most important funerals. Wealthy people often liked to be buried with jade objects after their death. There are also various names. Jade in the hand is called jade handle.
A piece of jade used to cover the eyes is called a jade blind eye, and a piece of jade held in the mouth is called a jade stick. The jade piece held in the mouth of the deceased is usually carved into the shape of a cicada, which has the implication of the cicada's rebirth.
Xu Qing was originally not interested in these burial objects, but his eyes stopped when he accidentally glanced at something on the stall. It was a piece of jade with no luster, and it looked more like a lump of earth, with a yellowish coating.
It's so inconspicuous that few people believe it is jade.
But Xu Qing clearly saw that there was a layer of dense purple gas attached to the bumpy jade on the surface, which was completely different from what he had seen before. This sight also aroused his interest, and he walked over.
"Boss, this is an authentic ancient Han Badao jade. Look, the color is so good. It is definitely the best Hetian jade." As soon as the vendor saw someone coming forward, he immediately started to sell the object in his hand enthusiastically, with a smile on his face.
The smile blossomed.
Xu Qing touched his nose, squatted down, reached out and grabbed a piece of jade from the stall and asked, "Is this jade too?"
The vendor nodded firmly and said: "Absolutely, and it's ancient jade, ancient jade from the Han Dynasty."
Xu Qing shook the ancient jade in his hand and said, "How much does it cost per piece?"
The hawker was secretly happy, he knew that this was not an ancient jade at all, but at most an old jade that looked a lot like this and wasn't worth much at all.
"One thousand, that's very cheap." After saying that, he pretended to be mysterious and lowered his voice: "If you get this piece of ancient jade from an antique shop in the capital, it will at least double the price. If you meet an expert, it will be double or triple..."
The meaning is obvious, you missed it, but if you really take it to an antique store in Beijing, people will definitely spit on your face.
Xu Qing shook his head, put down the 'ancient jade' in his hand and said, "It's too expensive. Where is this piece? How much is it?"
The hawker looked a little disappointed and said: "This one is cheaper, 800." Before he finished speaking, Xu Qing put it down again, tapped another piece of 'ancient jade' with his finger and said, "Where is this one?"
"Three hundred, take it if you want it." The look of disappointment on the vendor's face became even stronger. This kid didn't want to buy something too expensive.
Xu Qing put it down again, frowned, picked up the thing with the purple gas attached to it and said, "How much is this piece?"
The hawker crooked his nose and said, "One hundred, it's definitely worth it. If you want it, take it." Xu Qing immediately took out his wallet from his pocket, took one out and stuffed it into the hawker's hand. He picked up the piece of ancient jade and shook it.
Said: "Is this thing mine?"
The vendor held the banknotes up to the light and said with a smile, "Yes, this piece of ancient jade belongs to you."
Xu Qing took the thing in his hand and rubbed it, and was about to get up when suddenly a sound like a broken gong sounded from behind him.
"Kid, can I have a look at this ancient jade?"
Looking back and seeing the speaker's face clearly, the expression on Xu Qing's face became strange. It was hard to hold back a smile.
The owner of the voice was a dry old man in his sixties, with a square face that looked like it had been flattened. His facial features were all squeezed into a pile, and he had two eyebrows that formed a standard "囧" character.
Poof! When the vendor behind him saw such an embarrassing face, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. This old man was so funny. With such a dignified face, he ran behind people and yelled at them. The comedy effect was really great.
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment and put the 'ancient jade' in his hand close to the tip of his nose. The purple gas quickly poured into his eyes. This time, the effect was a bit special. The eyeballs did not feel cool, but instead felt as warm as if they had been soaked in warm water.
,Very comfortable.
Just like what the vendor said just now, one hundred is an absolute value. For Xu Qing, just having this purple gas is enough. This kind of thing can only be found but not sought.
The awkward-faced old man seemed a little anxious, and repeated: "Can you show me the object in your hand?"
Xu Qing handed the ancient jade to him in a bachelor manner. The gas on it had been absorbed anyway, so it didn't matter if he took a look at it. Maybe he could figure out the origin of this thing.
The awkward-faced old man took the ancient jade and looked through it, but his expression didn't change much. Then he took out a pocket magnifying glass from his pocket and looked at it again before stopping.
"Kid, I like this piece of ancient jade very much. How about selling it to me for a thousand yuan?" The old man smiled sincerely, always holding the piece of ancient jade in his hand.
Xu Qing stretched out his hand and said: "Give me the things first." The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, but he still handed the ancient jade in his hand to Xu Qing.
"How about I pay two thousand? This thing is really good."
The old man doubled the price, and the hawker's cheek suddenly twitched twice. It hurt! The items he had just sold had doubled twenty times in a blink of an eye. If he didn't regret it, it was definitely a lie.
Xu Qing stuffed the ancient jade into his pocket and said, "I like this too. Even if you increase it ten times more, I won't sell it."
The old man gritted his teeth and said: "If I increase it a hundred times, it will be two hundred thousand, will you sell it?"
Xu Qing shook his head happily: "If you don't want to sell it, I'm not short of money. It's useless even if you add a hundred times more." Since the other party was thinking of picking up the leaks, he didn't bother to talk to the old man and turned around to go to another place.
Walking to a stall.
The hawker who came back to his senses rolled his eyes and hurriedly stepped forward to start his business: "Boss, he bought his items from me just now. There are still some items. Take a look."
