Jianbao life

Chapter 550 The Glowing Bronze Mirror

The old village head scolded angrily: "Er Gouzi, don't be greedy!"

"How can this be greedy?" Er Gouzi said with an innocent face: "It is true that my parents died because of these things. With this special meaning, I think it is appropriate to add more money. You guys Say it?"

"That's meaningful to you, not to me!"

Hearing what he said, Chu Chen felt a little uncomfortable, and his tone was a little unfriendly.Since it is meaningful, why do you still sell things?
Er Gouzi is also thick-skinned, and he is almost out of cooking now, so he said with a smile on his face:
"Chu Wazi, you are also a big boss now, hundreds of thousands of dollars is nothing, you can add more!"

Hundreds of thousands of dollars is really nothing to Chu Chen, but it depends on who it is to. Of course, Chu Chen will not have any sympathy for the unfilial son and two dogs in front of him, and he has long known that the two Gouzi will want to add more money, so he underestimated the quotation just now.

"Okay, I'll add another four hundred to you, making a total of three thousand and two. If you want to add more, then you can take these things back and sell them to others!" Chu Chen waved his hand and said impatiently .

Seeing that Chu Chen added another four hundred, Er Gouzi was overjoyed. This was more than double the price of the antique shop in the city, and he might be able to ask for more, so he smiled charmingly again: "Chu Wazi , you see, I didn't even eat lunch, so I ran over..."

Before he finished speaking, the old village head shouted angrily: "Er Gouzi, you still have to be shameless!"

"Old village chief, don't be angry!" Chu Chen waved his hand, and then said to Er Gouzi lightly, "I said three thousand and two is three thousand two, there is no more!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Chen put on a posture that he didn't want to talk any more. The reason why he wasn't afraid that Er Gouzi would really have to take the things back was because he was sure that if the price was right, this guy would definitely sell them to others. his.

And now the price given by Chu Chen is already the highest price in the market. If Er Gouzi shows the item to the antique shop, he will definitely agree.

Sure enough, seeing that Er Gouzi couldn't swindle any more money from Chu Chen, he reluctantly agreed.

Next, the two parties signed an agreement, and then Chu Chen handed over the money that counted 200 yuan.

"Are you counting?"

"What you said, can I not trust you, Chu Wazi?"

Having said that, Er Gouzi checked the money with a happy face, which made Chu Chen and the others secretly shake their heads after seeing it.

"Chu Wazi, will you still accept such old things in the future?" Er Gouzi kept the money close to him, and then asked.

Chu Chen saw that his appearance should be repaid, so he said: "We accept it, but today these few things are collected for the sake of us being fellow villagers. Normally, our store does not accept such ordinary items. Things, and one more thing, I don’t accept things of unknown origin.”

"Chu Wazi, what you said, how could I sell you something of unknown origin?" Er Gouzi said with a straight face, but he really thought so in his heart, and the origin of the thing can be explained later Is it possible that Chu Chen can really send someone to investigate?
Chu Chen's five-year career as a peddler was not in vain, he saw Er Gouzi's plan at a glance, he said with a smile: "Er Gouzi, I hope you will remember my words, otherwise I don't mind having someone investigate. "

"Er Gouzi, don't blame me for not reminding you, so-and-so was honest in front of Chu Wazi's father yesterday, you don't mean you want to go in for a few more years!" The old village head also said with a straight face.

Originally, Er Gouzi really didn't take Chu Chen's words seriously, but when he heard what the old village chief said, he was a little dazed. You must know that the so-and-so that the old village chief said was the boss of this area, and even he was in Chu Chen's house. To be honest in front of his father, how big an official Chu Chen's father must be!

Therefore, Er Gouzi's first reaction was disbelief, and then he thought that this kind of thing should not be difficult to inquire about, and the old village chief probably wouldn't lie to him.So he felt scared in his heart, so he wanted to ask Chu Chen for a business card, but he didn't even want to, so he just left in a hurry like hiding from the plague god.

The old village chief shook his head and sighed: "Hey! These two dogs are not unintelligent, so why do they do all kinds of crooked things? It's really a crime!"

"Everyone has their own aspirations, and we can't manage it if we want to! Old village chief, let's go and count the money now!..."

After working hard outside these years, Chu Chen has met many people like Er Gouzi. Unless he repents of this kind of person himself, it is really not easy to change this kind of person. Besides, Er Gouzi It's not who he is, and he won't meddle in other people's business.

Next, Chu Chen settled all the copper coins, and then went door-to-door to settle some antiques that were not too valuable. Of course, in Chu Chen's eyes, they were of little value, but in the eyes of the villagers Hundreds of dollars is already a lot of money, and the villagers who received thousands of dollars from Chu Chen were even more ecstatic.

With that excited look, Chu Chen was worried that they would have a heart attack because they couldn't stand it.

Therefore, in order to avoid accidents, when Chu Chen told the remaining villagers the specific value of the antiques, he also reminded them specially. , they were still very excited. If Chu Chen hadn't reacted so quickly, they would probably have fainted from excitement.

Tens of thousands of dollars is already a lot of money in Lujia Village. If Chu Chen just paid them like this, it would be neither reassuring nor safe, so they made an appointment tomorrow morning to go to the town to transfer the money.

After having dinner at the village head's house, Chu Chen returned to the old house, took out the three pieces of jade from the box, and then asked Hu Yong for a knife.

"Brother Chu, is there something wrong with this box?" Hu Yong handed over the knife, and then asked curiously.

Chu Chen pushed the box in front of Hu Yong, and said with a smile, "Look what's wrong."

Hu Yong didn't say anything, he picked up the box and looked it up and down, but he didn't find any problem after searching for a long time, so he said with a wry smile: "Brother Chu, I'm stupid, you should tell me directly! "

Chu Chen laughed and said, "You, don't you think this box is a little too shallow?"

"Hey, it's true! Is there something in it?"

Hu Yong took a closer look and found that the inside of the box was indeed relatively shallow. If the thickness of the bottom of the box is used, it must be heavier than the current weight. What an idiot he was.

The insatiable appearance of the two dogs before made Hu Yong very unhappy, and he also knew that Chu Chen didn't like such people very much, so just now he was a little surprised why Chu Chen would buy those things, and now he knows , it turned out to be the case.

"If there is anything, let's see it!"

Chu Chen replied with a smile, then picked up a knife, and prepared to pry off the bottom of the box, because he had seen the box with Lingbao eyes beforehand and knew that there was no mechanism inside, so he thought the bottom of the box should be easy to pry off.Unexpectedly, after ten minutes of tossing, the bottom of the box was only slightly loose, and there was still a long way to go to pry it off.

Seeing this, Chu Chen had no choice but to fiddle with it slowly along the gap. Fortunately, this thing only took a lot of effort. After about ten, twenty or ten minutes, the bottom of the box finally became completely loose.

Then, Chu Chen pried harder, and he pried off the bottom plate of the box, and a thing wrapped in silk under the bottom of the box immediately caught the eyes of the two of them.

"Brother Chu, there really must be something in the face!" Hu Yong said excitedly.

"That's right! Since it's something purposely hidden, it must be good. Let's see how sacred it is."

Chu Chen also pretended to be surprised and took out the contents of the box. When he opened it, he found that it was wrapped in silk and it was the size of a large ancient copper coin.

This thing is also made of bronze. There is a dragon carved on the front and back of the thing, and the dragon's scales, claws, beard, and dragon horns are all lifelike, as if it is about to emerge.

Although the dragon carved on the thing is good, but other than that, there seems to be nothing special, which makes Hu Yong a little disappointed.

However, Chu Chen felt that this thing should not be so simple, otherwise the original owner would not be able to put Dong XZ in the box, and the value given by the ability is also very high, so he firmly believed that this thing must be extraordinary, so he After careful study, I found that this thing seems to be separable.

Chu Chen frowned and thought for a while, then twisted the thing gently like twisting a bottle cap, unexpectedly he opened it.

Seeing Chu Chen's actions, Hu Yong was pleasantly surprised: "Could it be that the real treasure is hidden inside this thing?"

Chu Chen shook his head and said, "This thing is so small, it's unlikely that there is anything XZ in it!"

In fact, he has already confirmed in his heart that there is nothing in this thing. The reason is very simple. If there is something in it, the ability will definitely respond.

Then Chu Chen separated the things under Hu Yong's gaze, but what they didn't expect was that the two sides of the things that were separated actually gave off some dazzling light. I was taken aback.

If it weren't for Chu Chen's strong psychological endurance, he would have almost thrown away the two things in his hand.

"Brother Chu, what... what's going on!" Hu Yong swallowed, and said a little bit tongue-tied.

When encountering such an accident, Chu Chen was also a little dazed. He shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on!"

"Is this an ancient flashlight?" Hu Yong calmed down, looked at the two things in Chu Chen's hand, and asked curiously.
