Chapter 12 No, I only have coins

Soon, at a street stall in front of a store, Wu Yuansheng saw an acquaintance who was a front-line detector and used a detector to hunt for treasures, Yang Tantou.

Yang Tantou's real name is definitely not Tantou. Tantou is just his nickname, describing his black appearance.

Thinking about it, you know that when you go out and are exposed to the wind and sun, it would be strange if you don't get dark.

As for his original name, Yang Cheng, almost no one calls him that.

He didn't ask who gave Yang Cheng his nickname. In his previous life, he just followed others in calling him that.

Yang Tantou makes a living by detecting and hunting for treasures. I heard that he once made money and was brilliant.

However, he was a single man who was involved in food, drink, prostitution and gambling. When Wu Yuansheng met him in his previous life, Yang Tantou was already in his 40s, and his life was not good at that time.

It's not that Yang Cheng couldn't get money. What impressed Wu Yuansheng most was that he liked to buy lottery tickets, including welfare and sports lottery, and basically bought dozens or hundreds of dollars for each issue.

The chance of winning the first prize is one in tens of millions, which is not much greater than the chance of finding a needle in a haystack.

He himself had bought lottery tickets several times, but later he overheard other people chatting and said that rich people would never buy lottery tickets, and selling lottery tickets was like cutting leeks from the poor.

As for whether this was correct, he would not comment, but from then on, he never bought lottery tickets again.

Yang Tantou has indeed made a great contribution to the lottery industry.

Sometimes when they were detecting together, Yang Cheng would sit and rest and take out the stacks of lottery tickets in his pocket to look at them.

Yang Tantou once said that he regretted investing too much and wanted to get back his money, so he bought more!
Maybe it’s because you’re single and no one cares about your willfulness!If I had a complete family, it might not be like that.

At this time, Yang Tantou was only in his 30s. Although he looked dark, he was much younger than ten years later.

The items placed in front of his stall include some copper coins, copper coins, a few small porcelain figures, some old glass beads, agate beads, a small bronze mirror and other miscellaneous copper items.

Wu Yuansheng knelt down and took a look at some things on his stall, and found a Yongzheng Tongbao inside.

However, this coin is not from Baoyuan Bureau, but from Baoquan Bureau. The coin is in average condition.

There were many coins in the Qing Dynasty. Take the Kangxi Dynasty as an example, there were 24 coins.

In the Qianlong Dynasty, there were 26 bureaus.

In the Xianfeng Dynasty, there were thirty bureaus.

Different money bureaus have different collection prices for coins.

Even if it is the same money bureau, the same coins, but different appearance, have different prices.

The knowledge in coins is too great and the water is deep.

"How much is this copper coin?" Wu Yuansheng asked Yang Tantou, pointing to the Baoquan Bureau coin.

"300 yuan!"

For Yang Tantou, Wu Yuan is relatively familiar with the odds. He is a senior front-line treasure hunter and has hunted for treasures for many years.

Basically, what he detects will be taken out for a few treasure hunting friends to take a look at first.

Let everyone estimate the price before putting it up for sale.

The price of 300 yuan, if you buy it back for collection, is probably the final value of this coin.

I don’t know how long it will take to find the next home to sell and make money.

"Where is this copper coin?" Wu Yuansheng did not intend to buy it, nor did he bargain with him. He pointed to a copper coin with two flags of the Republic of China and inquired about the price.

"This is 10 yuan!"

After asking the price of the two coins, he stood up and planned to see if any other acquaintances came to set up street stalls.

Yang Tantou didn't recognize him at this time, and the two didn't chat much.

After leaving Yang Tantou's stall, Wu Yuansheng continued to walk to other stalls.

After walking about ten meters, he saw three street stalls connected together by people he knew in his previous life.

The one closest to him is Lao Li, the one next to him is Xue Houhou, and the last one is "Omnipotent".

These three people are also people who use detectors to detect treasures on the front line.

Lao Li and Xue Houhou are about the same age. They are about 40 years old now, and Wan Neng is a few years older than them.

The three of them are all from Henan Province, fellow villagers.

Apart from Wan Meng, he didn't know Lao Li or Xue Houhou, he only knew their nicknames.

When he went to the dirt dump to explore for treasure before he was reborn, he often saw Lao Li and his son exploring or picking up iron in the dirt dump.

At that time, he heard others say that Lao Li gave birth to seven or eight children in order to have a son.

When digging for treasures and iron in dirt dumps or demolition areas, you can often see five or six members of his family collecting iron or treasure at the same time.

The dirt field he built is almost going to be booked by his family.

When the last eight-wheel garbage trucks were dumping dirt, there were basically people from his family standing behind every truck, and those who followed the trucks to pick up iron were very annoying to them.When others are bothered, they are still picking up the iron they should pick up. When there is a lot of iron in the dirt, Lao Li and the others can sell the iron they pick up for 3000 to [-] yuan a day.

I heard that in those years when there was a lot of demolition and construction, his family made a lot of money just picking up iron in the garbage dump.

Xue Houhou has such a nickname, which must be related to his appearance and physical condition.

He looks a bit sharp-tongued, only about 1.5 meters tall, and skinny. He often looks left and right when walking.

I heard from Wan Neng that Xue Houhou once learned to be a carpenter when he was young. Later, because he was thin and unwilling to endure hardship, he went out to do detection with them.

What impressed Wu Yuansheng most about Xue Houhou was that he liked to hold copper coins in his mouth.

Sometimes he would detect copper coins of greater value from the soil field. After washing the coins with water, he would put them directly into his mouth.

Many people say that there is patina on the money and it will be poisonous if you hold it in your mouth. They tell him not to hold it in his mouth, but he always refuses to listen and still does that.

In his words, it's okay to hold it in your mouth once, as it can reveal the quality of the money.

"His bad habits will kill him one day!" someone said.

Although others call him "Wan Neng", his name is not Wan Neng. His original name is Zhang Chao.

Super power, "super power", he remembered it because these two words were connected together and it was easy to remember.

Others often call him Almighty rather than Zhang Chao. It is said that it is related to the fact that he has done too many things.

As for what he had done, Wu Yuansheng did not inquire.

I remember that in the year before he was reborn, when Yu Liangzhou built the city's green heart and the inner island park, a big shot in the industry organized a treasure hunt competition for those who had detectors.

At that time, Wan Mian was lucky and the things he detected were more valuable than anyone else. He won No. 1 and got a new metal detector worth more than 3000 yuan.

"How much does this fake roof cost?"

When Wu Yuansheng was looking at some of the things on their stall, another man who was looking at things at Lao Li's stall asked Lao Li with a copper ceiling.

He glanced at the person asking for the price and didn't recognize him.

This broken top looks like a bamboo hat that has been shrunk many times. It is in good condition, but the top bead is missing.

"200 yuan!" Lao Li said to the man.

"200 yuan is a bit expensive. Can I sell it for 100 yuan?"

"If you really want it, I'll give you 150 yuan! If it works, take it. If it doesn't work, forget it! It's almost noon, and we will close the stall soon!"

"Okay! I want it!"

After that, the man took out 150 yuan from his wallet and handed it to Lao Li.

After the money and goods were cleared, the man took the copper and left.

"See if there is anything you need? If not, we will close the stall!" Seeing Wu Yuansheng still standing in front of their stall watching, Xue Houhou said to him.

At this time, they didn't recognize him either.

"How much does your medal cost?" Wu Yuansheng asked Xue Houhou.

When the man bought the false roof just now, he had already looked at the items in the stalls of the three of them.

In Xue Houhou's stall, he saw a commemorative medal of "XX Chamber of Commerce" from the Republic of China period.

Medals, badges, and medals will soon be collected by many people.

"This is 100 yuan." Xue Hou said to him.

"This medal of yours is not in very good condition. If you look at the words on it, you can't see it very clearly. When buying something, just buy it in good condition. Why don't you give me 30 yuan!"

"30 is not enough, you have to pay for a pack of cigarettes anyway!"

"Then it's 40 yuan. If it can be sold, I'll take it. If it can't be sold, forget it!"

"Okay! You can take it and close the stall."

"You didn't put this medal in your mouth!"

Thinking that Xue Houhou liked to have money in his mouth, Wu Yuansheng asked him.

"No! I only hold coins in my mouth! Do you know that I have the habit of holding things in my mouth?"

"I don't know. Didn't we just meet now?"

While he was talking, he took out 40 yuan and handed it to Xue Houhou.

"Yes, it's also the first time I've seen you!" Xue Houhou said after taking the money handed to him.

After a few more words, he left their booth.
