Future Stamps and Coins Diary

Chapter 65 Adventure in the Old House
Lu Feng could naturally understand his mother's reaction.

For a family like theirs, let alone 100,000 yuan, even 30,000 or 50,000 yuan is a huge sum of money.

Since Lv Feng was ten years old, his father had thought about rebuilding the house countless times, but in the end, the idea never came to fruition. The reason was simple: the family's financial situation did not allow it.

Now that Lu Feng suddenly said that he had 100,000 yuan, she was naturally surprised.

"Didn't I get more than 10,000 yuan from my dad for investment a few months ago? I've made a little money during this period, so it should be enough."

Lu Feng told a small lie, but he couldn't really say that he still had more than 20 million left in his bank card, right?
Not only will the parents not be happy, but they will be very worried.

Within their tolerance range, Lu Feng knew that he had to take it step by step.

"What kind of investment is so good?" Lu Xiangnan asked, and it was obvious that he didn't believe it either.

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you. If you don't believe it, go ask Boss Lu. He can make hundreds of thousands every year just by investing." Lu Feng said.

"Don't do anything evil." Lu Xiangnan said, and then said, "Even if you have money, you can't spend it casually. It's hard to save some money. I'd better stay in the house for a few days to stop him from thinking about it."

Lu Feng was helpless.

If Lu Xiangdong could easily give up the idea, you wouldn't have to worry about it for so long.

Lv Feng had no psychological burden about buying the old house. It was mentioned in the diary that Lv Feng in another time and space also made some money later, but when he came back in his thirties and wanted to buy the house again, the price had risen to a point that he could not afford.

A standard 12.5*4 30-square-meter residential plot alone would cost around yuan, especially since this place was later designated as a new urban area.

Although that happened six or seven years later, Lu Feng knew that it was a good investment.

With an old house covering an area of ​​one acre, you can acquire the entire ownership with just one hundred thousand yuan now, which is definitely a sure win.

Of course, Lu Feng knew very well that this matter could not be done privately, but he had to find a suitable opportunity. Otherwise, his uncle's family might find a reason to deny it in the future!

Lu Feng knew that it was not easy to convince his father, not to mention that it would cost 100,000 yuan at once.

After thinking about it, he was too lazy to continue dwelling on this matter. He simply had lunch, said hello, and left the house, heading towards the old house.

The old house is right in the middle of the county town and the house I live in now, about one kilometer away from the county town, but it has not been developed yet and there is only a muddy dirt road leading to it.

Those are the few old houses left in the village.

It is a standard three-entry house with everything from the street gate, back house, screen wall, and hanging flower gate, which shows that it was once a wealthy family.

However, the area after the second entrance has fallen into disrepair for many years and basically no one has set foot there. Some of the buildings are collapsed and overgrown with weeds, making it difficult to get in.

Lu Feng remembers that when he was a child, his grandfather’s favorite thing to do was to stay in the small courtyard on the second floor, singing operas or playing the erhu. The old man, who had been ravaged by the years, was not in good health, but he had an optimistic attitude.

Now, apart from the ancestral tablets inside the courtyard and the incense burner in the middle for worship during festivals, it is impossible to tell that these houses once belonged to different families.

There is nothing much to see once you enter the courtyard. Both families would come here to worship their ancestors during festivals.

After Lv Feng made a circle, he passed through the hanging flower gate and moved forward carefully among the broken walls. There was no way to enter the east and west wing rooms, and only the door of the main room was relatively intact.

Lu Feng exerted slight force, and the dust mixed with sand slid down, and the door was easily pushed open.

The sun finally shines into this place that I loved to visit most when I was a child. The first thing I see is the paintings and the big table in the middle hall. Originally, ancestor worship should be held here.

Surprisingly, it was quite clean inside, just with a lot of dust and cobwebs.

Lu Feng picked up a stick and swept away the cobwebs. He then probed into the right ear room and quickly retreated. The wooden bed and other things inside had rotted.

When he came to the last left ear room, Lv Feng pushed the door twice, but he couldn't open it. "Is it so solid?" Lv Feng muttered.

Logically, the left ear room was locked after grandma passed away, so it should be easier to open than the right one.

Since he intended to take a walk through it today, Lu Feng naturally would not stop there. He pried the wooden door open with the wooden stick in his hand for a while and finally pried it open.

"Hmm?" In the empty room, there was nothing except an old carved box in the corner.

Lu Feng remembered that this box was used by his grandmother to store clothes and other personal items. How did it end up here? And it looked very sturdy.

As a person who has seen the world, Lu Feng knows that this box alone may be worth some money. To be able to be preserved so well in such an environment, it is at least not made of ordinary rotten wood.

Lu Feng walked over and pushed it, but he couldn't move it because it was too heavy.

The old-fashioned lock hanging on it is already rusty.

Lu Feng weighed the solid wooden stick in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then swung it hard, knocking the long lock open.

When he opened the closet, he found that it was filled with old clothes, many of which were similar to the Republic of China style that Lu Feng had seen in movies before.

"Why don't we take out the clothes and find a way to move the cabinet out?" Lu Feng said and did it.

Soon, all the clothes were moved away. When Lu Feng wanted to push the box, he heard a click and a wooden board underneath lifted up.

"Hey, there is a secret compartment?" Lu Feng simply pried open the wooden board, leaned over, took a look, and his eyes lit up instantly.

The secret compartment was divided into two sides. On the left were more than a dozen silver coins. Lu Feng recognized two of them, one was called Yuan Datou and the other was called Qing Longyin. He had not yet touched upon the other ones, large and small.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the grid on the other side. Lu Feng saw something familiar.

Paper money!

The first and second edition banknotes! There were probably more than a dozen neatly arranged private money.

The most eye-catching thing is a nearly brand new Big Black Ten.

The second edition of the Big Black Ten is now worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Lu Feng took out the entire stack of money and flipped through it. When a brand new purple-black banknote appeared at the bottom, Lu Feng was stunned for a moment.

The first edition of RMB, the 500-yuan "Zhan De City"? The smallest denomination of the Four Heavenly Kings, a rare treasure that is said to have no more than 100 in existence in the world?
How can it be?

Lu Feng's heart was beating wildly. If this "Zhande City" was real, then its market value would be at least hundreds of thousands.

More importantly, if it is authentic and brand new, then the probability of completing the first edition set is doubled.

The most difficult of the Four Heavenly Kings, the horse herding painting, is owned by Li Jicheng himself. There will be an auction next year, and two brand new 5,000 yuan "yurts" will appear. As long as he can get them, the only one left is the "Camel Team" with a face value of 10,000 yuan.

If it is true, I really made a lot of money this time!

Lu Feng never thought that he would find his grandmother's private money during an exploration.

If he had not been to the stamp and coin market and had not read many reference books, he would not have been able to recognize the treasure even if it was in front of him.

Who among the young people would know that the RMB was once issued with a face value of 10,000 yuan?

Based on its origin, Lu Feng felt that there was a high possibility that it was authentic.
