treasure hunt god pupil

Chapter 82

The two walked all the way, and saw a wide variety of things, and there were even a lot of strange things, and they didn't know what they were for.The stall owner put them out, hoping to meet a heartless one.

"I really can't stand it anymore." Niu Sanpang patted his face, "Li Shao, was the toilet on the stall just now?"

Li Mo also can't laugh or cry, this antique festival is really interesting, the wooden toilet that was used 50 years ago can also be moved out for sale.

"I'll put up with the toilet, what was that stick before?"

"That's what you said wrong. That stick is really an old object, but it's just not worth collecting."

"What is it for?"

"From the appearance point of view, it should be a killing stick. Isn't that kind of promotion scene often shown on TV? Those yamen servants beat the killing stick in order to frighten the prisoners. The judge will find an excuse to give him ten boards, killing his prestige and vigor, and that's how the name "killing power stick" comes from."

Niu Sanpang thought he was listening to a story. He was walking in front, and suddenly he turned around and waved and shouted: "There is a bracelet over here."

Li Mo squeezed in front of him. This booth was much more advanced. It was not a piece of cloth spread on the floor, but a small flat cart made by himself, with a piece of gray cotton cloth on it, and there were bracelets, jade pendants and some snuff bottles.

"Young Master Li, when I saw these bracelets, I thought of the Yang Guifei bracelet. It was reported online that it was called a golden snake entanglement. Do you think the shelf inside is a very expensive jade bracelet? After all, it was for Yang Yuhuan's use, so I probably wouldn't use it. Inferior jade."

He really guessed it, the shelf inside was indeed a top-quality suet jade bracelet, but no one knew the real situation except him.

There are still four or five people looking at the bracelets and jade pendants at this booth. While looking at them, they inquire about the prices, ranging from a few hundred to several thousand.

"The most expensive one is only over 5000. These jade bracelets are of average quality."

Niu Sanpang also couldn't tell the quality of the jade, he just judged from the price, after excluding the profit, the actual value of the jade bracelet was estimated to be lower, and the quality was not in his eyes at all.

"Young Master Li, I'll take a look at the others."

"Wait a minute, let me see that snuff bottle."

Li Mo picked up a snuff bottle with painted patterns, turned it over and over and asked, "Boss, how much is this snuff bottle?"

"During the period of the Republic of China, one thousand and two."

The boss is a man in his 50s, and he quoted the price just by looking at it.

"Li Shao, is this really from the period of the Republic of China?"

"No." Li Mo shook his head, "Looking at the shape and craftsmanship, it shouldn't be more than 20 years old. It's a modern craft."

"The young man is knowledgeable?" Seeing that he was young, the boss thought about how to fool him, but he pointed it out.

"An elder in the family likes to collect all kinds of snuff bottles, so he knows a little bit when he sees a lot. Boss, you can give me a real price for this snuff bottle. If it is worthwhile, I will pick two or three more."

"Seeing that you are also a cheerful person, that's fine. If you buy more than four, I'll sell them to you for five hundred. This snuff bottle was also purchased from someone else, so it's fine if you can make a little money."

"Five hundred... OK, then I'll make a selection first, and then settle the payment with you after the selection is made."

There are quite a lot of snuff bottles, some are arranged in two rows, and some are stacked together.Li Mo picked them up one by one to have a look, and when he saw more delicate ones, he would put them in the selected pile.

The corner of the boss's mouth gradually showed a smile, because Li Mo had already selected six, which was a good deal.He did buy these snuff bottles from other people, and he took one hundred of them casually.

The profit is four times as long as they are resold. It seems that there are still a few days before the Antique Festival, and I will go to the snuff bottle shop before to buy a batch.

Niu Sanpang stood aside and watched him choose so seriously, thinking that he really wanted to buy some snuff bottles to send back to his elders.

Li Mo finally picked out eight.

"Boss, you count, there are eight in total, 4000 yuan, right?"

"Yes, yes."

Li Mo paid for the mobile phone, and asked the boss for a bag to put them in.

"Young man, there will be a new batch of snuff bottles tomorrow, you'd like to come and pick them out again."

"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow." Li Mo waved his hand, "Let's go, boss first."

After walking more than ten meters away, Niu Sanpang asked curiously, "Are there still special collections of snuff bottles?"

"I don't know, there should be."

Niu Sanpang was taken aback, and glanced at him: "Didn't you just say that the elders in the family like to collect snuff bottles?"

"Did I say it?" Li Mo immediately smiled and nodded, "Indeed I did, it was just a casual remark."

Li Mo opened the bag, took out a white snuff bottle from it, and handed over the rest to Niu Sanpang.

"Find a place to dispose of these and throw them away."

Niu Sanpang looked at the snuff bottle left behind, and then realized that he had his eyes on the one in his hand, and everything else was just a cover.

"Young Master Li, what is the origin of this snuff bottle?"

Li Mo's different pupils have been seen just now, and there is a light gray halo projecting from his body, which is an old object from the late Qing Dynasty.

He touched the body of the pot, and it was smooth and moist to the touch, very comfortable, and when it was exposed to the sun, it gave off a soft luster.Quintessential white, although not as high as suet white, is at least the quality of first-class white.

"This is a snuff bottle from the late Qing Dynasty. The body of the pot is made of high-quality Hetian white jade seed material." Li Mo pulled off the lid, "Touch the bottle mouth, and there is a hole. The bottle mouth is not flat, but a little concave. , From this production process, we can roughly see the age of production."

"It's true." Niu Sanpang touched it with his index finger, and it was true.

"The lid is made of silver, and the top is made of coral red, which has a good meaning of good luck."

Li Mo put the snuff bottle into his bag, and wrapped it with the thick cotton wool that he had prepared earlier.

"If it's a high-quality Hetian white jade seed material, then even if it's just carving itself, it's also very valuable. I know a little bit about this."

"It's okay. If this snuff bottle is auctioned, it should be around 25."

Niu Sanpang is really envious, how long has it been walking around like this, Li Mo has already picked up three small leaks.However, compared with the vast crowd in front of us, it is extremely difficult to find these three small leaks. If it were not for the Antique Festival, there would probably not be so many stalls.

"Li Shao, can you also guide me to play, so that I can enjoy myself too."

Niu Sanpang is really greedy, but it's a pity that his level is really average, let alone picking up mistakes, it's a good thing not to be fooled by the boss.

Li Mo patted him on the shoulder, pointed to the front and said, "Go, I will remind you when you meet the right one."

The 800-meter Liuli Street has finally reached halfway. The weather is already hot, and the two of them are already sweating. Niu Sanpang is even more unbearable.

"Li Shao, why don't we find a place to rest and catch our breath. I don't eat much at noon, so I need to replenish some energy."

Niu Sanpang was out of breath.

"There seems to be a barbecue in that alley, let's go and have some together."

Li Mo also felt uncomfortable due to sweating on his body, the two squeezed out of the street and entered the alley, and the aroma of barbecue came over their faces.

"Boss, bring ten big meat skewers, put more pepper and hot sauce, and two glasses of sour plum juice."
