Chapter 212 Eleven Exchange Meeting ([-])
"I'll add another 1000 and give you 7000. If it works, the gloomy wood will be mine. If it doesn't work, I'll leave!"

The person who offered 6000 yuan raised the price a bit more.

The street stall owner still didn't agree. He said he wouldn't sell it if it was 1 yuan lower.

Seeing that he didn't want to sell it, the man looked at the stones in front of the stall for a while and then left.

The price is 1 yuan. If you buy good quality ebony, it will definitely be a good deal. Ordinary wood is a bit expensive.

Wu Yuansheng left after this person left.

At a stall, they saw a nearly round stone ball hewn from bluestone, about the size of a 10-pound watermelon.

The stone balls look very old and should be used for siege or defense.

He has seen this type of thing many times.

I asked about the price and the boss said it would cost at least 300 yuan.

For an object that costs 80 yuan, no one would be willing to pay that much for 300 yuan. Stone balls like this are not unusual, and there is not much room for appreciation, otherwise he would have sold them long ago.

In front of another stone seller's stall, they saw a large guillotine.

The knife is made of iron and very big!It is about 1.3 meters long, and the widest part of the blade is about 20 centimeters, which is very thick.

There are damaged areas on the blade and the surface, and there is some black patina on the surface. It looks dark and will not continue to rust.

Zhou Anming is expected to buy such items, but he probably hasn't come here to shop.

(Stalls that sell stones are different from those that specialize in antiques. People who don’t like strange stones will generally not come here.)
For Zhou Anming, when he buys things, he only wants to buy daily necessities that local people used in the past.

It is estimated that he is unlikely to buy some of the folk items on the stalls of outsiders. He had mentioned this to Wu Yuansheng when he went to buy things from him.

There are many people with localist ideas like Zhou Anming.

Living environments are different, and things of the same type look different. Objects with typical local characteristics are more representative whether they are seen by locals or outsiders!
The items he once saw at the Folk Culture Museum opened by Zhou Anming were basically representative items used by the people in this city.

When I asked the boss how much the guillotine cost, he said it was 200 yuan. Wu Yuansheng paid back 50 yuan and gave him 150 yuan.

After paying the money, the boss tied it up with newspapers and rope and put it in a large snakeskin bag.

He tried this knife just now. It weighs more than ten kilograms and is very heavy!He was now carrying it on his shoulders.

"An ancient warrior would be very intimidating when using such a broadsword!"

While walking around carrying a knife, he suddenly had such an idea.

No one else had bought this before, perhaps thinking it was a "murder weapon" and unlucky.

But Wu Yuansheng believed that it was not necessarily a "murderous weapon". It might have been used to feed pigs, cows and sheep.

It doesn't matter if it's the "murder weapon", he won't take it home.

It's similar to picking up things in a garbage dump. Go to the sandfield or river to pick up stones. If you're lucky, you can sometimes pick up other more valuable items.

They are all going out to hunt for treasure. The only difference is the occasion and luck.

He also saw it just now. The stone pickers picked up a small amount of coins and miscellaneous items. He has some stones in his hand. He can exchange them for other things if he has the opportunity in the future.

There are many residents who have been moved out of the demolition area. In the future, we will definitely encounter those demolished households who picked up stones and whose houses were confiscated but did not take away the stones.

"There are meteorites here!"

When she walked to the last stall selling strange stones, Yi Xiaoyue said a little surprised, looking at her, she looked very novel.

"Look at this man's stall, the wooden sign in front of the two stones says meteorite."

She pointed to the place where the meteorite was placed and said to Wu Yuansheng again.

"Is this your first time seeing a meteorite?"

Wu Yuansheng looked at her and asked with a smile. He had also seen these two stones just now.

When I saw a meteorite for the first time, I might have felt the same way as Yi Xiaoyue does now. The same feeling was very novel.Both meteorites are yellowish brown and are iron meteorites. This type of meteorite is the most common, most common, and worthless.

"Yes! It's the first time I've seen it."

As she spoke, she knelt down and looked.

He has such a stone, but he doesn't plan to tell her now. He can give it to her later!
"Beauty! Do you like this meteorite? If you want it, you can get a discount!"

The stall owner also looked to be a man in his 40s. Seeing Yi Xiaoyue's curious look, he said to her.

"How much is this stone?"

she asked in passing.

"The big one weighs three kilograms. If you want it, I'll tell you the lowest price, 8888. The small one only weighs about one kilogram, 2888!"

According to different sizes, the stall owner told the prices of the two meteorites.

"Is this expensive?"

Yi Xiaoyue stood up and asked him.

"Expensive! I'll pick one up for you later!"

Wu Yuansheng smiled at her again as he spoke.

"Young man, this stone is not easy to find! The price I said is not high! You can ask about it!"

The price of meteorites has also reached high prices in the past.Later, with the increase in the number of online stores, many people owned meteorites, and everyone squeezed each other to sell them, so the price dropped dramatically.

"I only have 200 yuan left in my hand. How about I buy a small one?"

He didn't want to buy it, so he had to tell the stall owner this.

"That's it! Forget it, let's look at the other stones!"

The stall owner heard what he said and believed what he said.

After looking at his stall for a while, they didn't find what they wanted, so they walked into those shops to browse.

The business of those who just set up street stalls to sell strange stones is definitely not as good as those who sell antiques.

Because the materials of the stones are very common, not Tianhuang, jadeite rough, Hetian jade rough and other stones.

He also saw the prices of people who came to buy stones. They were basically within a few dozen yuan, and rarely exceeded 100 yuan.

When he came to visit the exchange meeting in the morning, he didn't see a lot of items brought from the demolition area to set up grocery stalls at these stalls.

They are generally older items.

This may be related to the fact that large-scale demolition has just begun and the market is still mainly selling old goods, and people like to collect old objects.

However, it won’t be long before things from the demolition area will gradually appear on the market.

He didn't know many people who opened shops in the Antique City in X City District, and they rarely came here.

I remember that due to poor business at that time, many shops here were turned into warehouses.

Some of the larger facades have become places for dining and gatherings, some have become training rooms for practicing dance or musical instruments, and some have become classrooms for practicing calligraphy, calligraphy and painting.

After all, the environment here is good, the place is large, and there is parking space.

"Boss Xiaowu, what are you carrying on your shoulders?"

After visiting several shops, Fu Wei saw him and said hello as he came out of a shop selling calligraphy and painting.

"Director Fu, come and hang out too! The big knife I bought just now is a bit heavy, so I just carried it!"

I haven’t seen him for a while and I wonder if he has made any short films.
