Chapter 304 Chapter 304 Starting with "Money"

Not to mention the peddlers on the antique street, each of them is as shrewd as a monkey with the ability to observe words and demeanor, let's talk about such obvious things as "combined money", as long as they dare to set foot in the category of ancient coins , and who doesn't know its true value? Therefore, it is not a very surprising thing to encounter such a thing at a street stall in the antique street. You know, this is an antique street, and this is a street stall. The more valuable something is, the higher the probability of it appearing here.Didn’t Jia Sidao see the “Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival” before?That is a real thing placed in the Palace Museum!Even taking it out for exhibition, it needs to go through multiple procedures and reviews before it can be approved!Not to mention appearing in a place like Linhai Antique Street, it is for sale!

In this way, the part in Jia Sidao's heart is whether he can reappear on things like ancient coins, which is similar to receiving the opportunity of "combined money" in his hometown. There is little confidence left.Fortunately, even if you don't plan to buy any ancient copper coins, it's still good to look through them first to see if there are any special coins and gain some knowledge. Isn't it just for strolling around the antique street, to open your eyes? If it is said that every time I come to Antique Street, I have the intention of picking up leaks, then such a person is really not suitable for entering the antique business at all!

Although Jia Sidao hopes that he can pick up leaks every day, it is best to keep picking up leaks all the time, but the facts undoubtedly make Jia Sidao more clearly aware that unless he is allowed to gamble with stones, moreover, he will keep picking up leaks every day. Use the perception of supernatural powers to gamble on stones, and along with that, no matter what quality of jade rough stones you encounter, as long as you make some money, you will gamble back all of them. Then, after cutting the stones, sell the jade materials immediately, even Make a small profit and sell as soon as possible.In this case, no matter in terms of funds or ability, he can still barely maintain the situation of "picking up leaks" every day, right?

However, in this way, the exposure of Jia Sidao's supernatural perception is also obvious. If there is any dangerous situation, God knows if it is other stone gambling experts, out of jealousy, or some small-timers who want to seek money and kill... And on the antique booth in front of you, most of the place near the left is occupied by jade gadgets, and there are still a lot of stamps in the place near the right. Jia Sidao took a rough look at a few eyes, flipping through the stamp album.The entire stamp album looks old, and so do the stamps inside! Jia Sidao couldn't see which famous stamps were among them, or which ones were more valuable.After inquiring about the hawker, the other party said very simply: "Five hundred yuan, the entire stamp album, you can take it away."

Jia Sidao was speechless immediately.At the moment, I no longer care about stamps, jade and the like.He didn't even flip through the other stamp albums.Instead, he began to seriously examine the copper coins on the stall.Almost all the copper coins were piled up by peddlers, without any rules at all.It seemed that the peddler in front of him didn't know much about coins.Unlike the arrangement of jade and stones on the left, it is very regular. Jia Sidao glanced at the jade on the left side of the booth.From Jia Sidao's point of view, generally speaking, those with higher value are placed at the back of the booth by hawkers, and those with low value, even emerald ornaments imitated by plastic and stone dyed, are all It was placed at the front end of the booth.

Of course, maybe the antique peddler's own eyesight is not enough, or the antique peddler has the idea of ​​confusing the real, and there are some low-value jade ornaments in the rows behind, but whether it is craftsmanship or appearance , are relatively bright accessories! False and real, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false! Jia Sidao, on the other hand, believes that the hawker has such a layout, which should be due to the latter reason! Bowing his head, while flipping the copper coin, while checking, Jia Sidao's movements were very fast, and he almost seemed to be checking the front and back of the copper coin, as well as the words engraved on it!As for whether Jia Sidao is looking for copper coins such as "combined back" coins and "combined noodles" coins, only Jia Sidao knows...

The stall owner was young and roughly similar to Xiaoma. After seeing Jia Sidao's actions, he didn't have much reaction.Anyway, these copper coins and the like, if you look through them casually, they won't be damaged just because of this.Jia Sidao, however, is not tired of it.The movements of the hands are almost getting faster and faster.Sometimes, stall owners and hawkers are suspicious.When the young man in front of him checked, did he see clearly which era the copper coin in his hand came from? Fortunately, there are a lot of copper coins on the street stalls, not to mention thousands, there must be five or six hundred coins.In terms of form, it is also relatively numerous.Leaving aside the most common round shapes, there are other shapes, such as diamond shapes, or "knife-like" shapes.Yes, on the surface, there is still a bit of "green and green" beauty, that is because of the age and environment, the rusty color on the copper coins caused by it has some antique flavor!

Jia Sidao rummaged for a long time, and felt that his fingers were a little weak, so he stopped.The expected "combined back" and "combined face" money did not appear in the end. Jia Sidao let out a long breath and felt a little disappointed at the same time.Even if I think such a fact in my heart, it is considered normal! Among the copper coins that Jia Sidao has seen.Such as "Chongning Tongbao", "Zhitong Yuanbao", "Zhenghe Tongbao", "Xuanhe Tongbao" and other very common types in the Northern Song Dynasty.Others, very few.Even if a few pieces appear occasionally, it is difficult for Jia Sidao to see why.

First of all, Jia Sidao, the year name of the ancient emperors, has a better understanding of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Who made the porcelain of this period the most exquisite?For this reason, for the copper coins of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it seems that it will save more effort; secondly, on some copper coins, there is no font at all, and the age can only be judged from the shape; Thirdly, that is to say, even if Jia Sidao knows when a copper coin came from, he still doesn't know its real price very well! We must know that ancient Chinese coins have a long history and are of various varieties, which are of high collection and investment value, which is naturally correct.As far as Jia Sidao's "hebei money" is concerned, there is a high price. Even if it is not the case, it is very interesting for collectors to see, appreciate, and occasionally play with.If Jia Sidao can collect some "co-back money", it would be good to play the game of tossing coins and guessing heads and tails from time to time.

However, Jia Sidao also knows that ancient coins are not the older the better, but the more ancient they are, the higher the value. This is just a misunderstanding of some novices who have just entered the industry or have not yet entered the industry.Although, to a large extent, ancient coins with a long history are indeed more precious in comparison, however, it is not true to extend this conclusion to all ancient coins with an ancient age. There are also some expensive treasures in many ancient coins that are relatively recent. Let’s say it was the Warring States Period more than 2,300 years ago. The currency of the Yan Kingdom, “Mingdao”, has its own characteristics, not to mention its shape, but its age alone is very old.So far, there are many "bright knives" of high quality. However, due to the considerable casting volume, they are still unearthed from time to time, and there are often hundreds or thousands of them. The market price is only sixty or seventy yuan. one piece.In addition, what makes people feel a little helpless is that the "five baht coins" of the Han Dynasty 2,000 years ago, the "Kaiyuan Tongbao" of the Tang Dynasty more than 1,000 years ago, and even the "Xuanhe Tongbao" of the Northern Song Dynasty , its price is unbelievably low!

It only costs a few cents, and you can buy it at any coin booth in the antique market! However, the high price of some ancient coins of the same age is equally unbelievable.Let’s say it’s the “Three Hole Cloth Coins” of the Warring States Period. The price circulating in the market is as high as more than 60,000 yuan per piece, and it is still in a state of being priced and out of stock.As for the "Zhuangquan Forty" coins minted by Wang Mang at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the coins on the market will definitely not be less than 25,000 yuan.Even the coins of the Qing Dynasty that came out only more than 100 years ago, among them, many varieties belong to the ranks of ancient coins with a price of tens of thousands of yuan.For example, "Qixiang Chongbao", "Tianguo Tongbao" cast during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising, etc. Therefore, the astonishment of the value of ancient coins made Jia Sidao, a novice in ancient coins who had little knowledge and was not very good at it, feel a little uneasy when he encountered a large number of ancient coins. The value of ancient coins will be so different, the main reason lies in the amount of ancient coins in existence. In history, some dynasties were relatively strong, issuing a single variety of coins for decades or even hundreds of years.Generally speaking, the number of such ancient coins and the remaining amount are naturally very huge, almost astonishingly large.In the current market, it is understandable that the value has dropped to a few cents. However, some short-lived dynasties just tried to mint some sample coins, and they were replaced by dynasties before they could be circulated. The number of such ancient coins is correspondingly small.As the saying goes, "things are rare and expensive", at this time, the value on ancient coins can be vividly reflected. However, because of this, the higher the value of ancient coins, the more unpopular they are. As far as Jia Sidao knows, ancient coins with high value cannot be all.As a result, when Jia Sidao looked at the countless copper coins in front of him.In my heart, I felt a little uncomfortable. On the one hand, Jia Sidao naturally hoped that he could pick up the leaks. For example, if he encountered a coin like "Qixiang Zhongbao", Jia Sidao could still recognize it. On the other hand, it was because of his own lack of ability. , Jia Sidao was very worried.There are good things, but I missed them in vain. This hesitant situation lasted for a long time. When Jia Sidao's sight gradually moved away from the piles of ancient coins in front of him, the feeling that was suppressed in his heart was regarded as following his gaze. gradually loosen up! Glancing at the stall owner and peddler, at this time, Xu Shi was in front of the stall, which was relatively deserted. His gaze just happened to meet Jia Sidao's.Obviously, while Jia Sidao was slightly disappointed, the stall owner was also relatively disappointed. Jia Sidao couldn't help showing a little surprise.Immediately, Jia Sidao, who came back to his senses, raised the corners of his mouth slightly and pulled it away, almost laughing out loud.Daringly, I didn't choose to start, making the stall owners and hawkers in front of me think that they missed a deal. "Hey, boss, how do you sell these ancient coins?" Jia Sidao casually pointed his finger and asked, "Do we need to pick them out one by one, or should they be piled up in piles?" Calculate the price by weight?" Jia Sidao knew that piles of ancient coins like the one in front of him would sometimes be counted by weight when they were purchased by peddlers.Only when a small number of coins are encountered, the purchase will be made according to the quantity.Of course, if there are some special copper coins among the piles of ancient coins, the value of a single coin is relatively high, whether it is a hawker or a person who sells coins, they will be selected in advance and sold separately.Others, of low value, will be sold in the form of weight. In addition, people who are completely ignorant will sell them at a price of two pounds when they meet some peddlers who buy them. It’s just that no matter what, Jia Sidao bought copper coins on the street stalls in the antique street, so that antique hawkers can place them in piles on the street stalls for sale. If you think about it, the value of these ancient coins in front of you is not high. would be too high. However, it is also with such an idea.Knowing that the price of these ancient coins would not be too much, Jia Sidao felt a little bit disappointed when he saw the slightly disappointed expression of the antique peddler after a long period of depression just now. For money, I can collect some ancient copper coins to play with, and learn more about it, it's not a bad idea!After all, Jia Sidao has a little bit of experience with ancient coins. However, after Jia Sidao asked such a "layman" question, the stall owner in front of him showed a more dumbfounding expression on his face, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "According to the rules He said, these coins were originally sold one by one. However, it is a coincidence that I have ancient coins here. I am not very good at reading them. If you buy enough, you can buy them according to the price ' to sell to you." "Okay, since it's about catties, let's do it. Tell me a price, how much is a catty." Jia Sidao said indifferently, and in his heart, he also told the stall owner that he didn't know much about it. Knowing ancient coins, some don't take it seriously.Now Jia Sidao, generally speaking, no matter what the peddlers say, no matter whether it is good news or bad news, he will not think about it with an attitude of belief. moving situation.However, he took another look at the many ancient coins on the booth.Jia Sidao added something, and said, "By the way, boss, if I buy all the coins here, can they be cheaper?" Anyway, I am ready to learn, so I will buy more and go home.It's okay to study it carefully. "Pack them all away?" The stall owner finally smiled for the first time, and said, "Well, if you really take them all at once, let me see, there are about six hundred pieces here in total. About one copper coin, let’s count it at the price of one yuan, six hundred yuan, how about it?” Seeing Jia Sidao frowned, the other party immediately said: "I said, the price of 600 yuan is not expensive. You know, no one has picked these copper coins from my side so far. No way, there are a lot of valuable coins in it." "Really?" Jia Sidao said, "Even if no one has picked them, how can you guarantee that it's not because these copper coins are too ordinary?" "This..." There was a shy smile on the other party's face, and he said, "Actually, I don't know much about copper coins. You see, I usually sell them by coin. If someone randomly picks a few It costs at least a few tens of dollars, right? Because you took it all at once, so I gave you such a cheap price..." "Okay, you don't need to say anything more. If you don't understand ancient coins, I don't understand much. I'm going to spend money to learn. If the tuition is too expensive, I might as well go to other stalls. There are quite a lot of ancient coins over there." Jia Sidao pointed to the main road of Antique Street, then cut the price fiercely, and said, "Just one hundred yuan. If you want If so, I'll pay, take the things, and leave." Immediately, Jia Sidao saw the bitterness on the other party's face.Regardless of whether it is pretended or not, that appearance, in Jia Sidao's eyes, is very calm in his heart! "One hundred yuan is really too little." The stall owner obviously hesitated, and said, "Could you add more? How about three hundred yuan? It's only an average price of fifty cents a piece..." "You say that, what's the difference between selling one by one?" Jia Sidao said a little funny, "For the price of fifty cents a piece, I can buy a bunch at other stalls. How many..." Just as he was talking, Jia Sidao's cell phone rang inappropriately.
