Qimen Holy Physician

Chapter 420 Liu Lian's Physiognomy!

Now is the era of collections by the whole people, everyone likes to build collections.

As the saying goes: antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times.The more prosperous the age, the more valuable the antiques are, especially now that the TV collection appraising programs are becoming more and more popular, from which we can see the clue.

Xinyi is also an ancient city. There are historical sites in many places, and there are naturally many antiques.

Why are antiques in the Central Plains so crazy?It is because the Central Plains is the cradle of the Chinese nation, and this cradle has bred many civilizations, and buried many emperors and generals, so this is the reason why there are many antiques in the Central Plains.

Fengshui Antique Street naturally also sells copper coins, but after all, every family has some copper coins, and the profit is not large, so not many people will sell them in Antique Street. Although there are, they are not as many and complete as the flea market.

Liu Lian and Xu Fengnian walked into the second-hand goods market. It was really deserted. There were more stalls than strollers.

It is also because today is not the weekend, if it is the weekend, there will be a huge crowd of people, everyone is used to listening to the missing, and everyone is delusional to find a big leak.

But don't even think about it, if you can pick up the leaks, wouldn't everyone in the business have to pay for it?

There is another saying in the antique world: if you don’t open for three years, you can eat for three years after opening, which shows that the profits are huge. This kind of business is usually fine, and a business can make a lot of money. Many people are crowded to do it.

However, Liu Lian would definitely not go to these places, not to mention the people who run these shops, and the threshold is extremely sophisticated, if you want to find a good thing from them, it is no less than looking for a needle in a haystack.

Besides, Liu Lian just came here today to find money from the Five Emperors.

Now the five emperors' money is everywhere, but Liu Lian dare not ask Xu Fengnian to buy it himself, because Xu Fengnian can't tell the real five emperors' money at all, and the five emperors' money circulating in the world is basically fake.Of course, it is not impossible, you need to have excellent eyesight to distinguish.

A bunch of fake five emperor coins, like the real ones, are made of copper, and only cost five to ten yuan a bunch.However, five emperor coins of average quality need at least two to three hundred strings.The price difference is huge. Of course, there is no shortage of fake Five Emperor coins with a cost of four or five yuan sold for two or three hundred. This is the huge temptation of profits.

However, Liu Lian and Xu Fengnian walked half a street, and they didn't see a single coin seller. Of course, this refers to a stall.

Near the exit, there happened to be a person with a pile of coins in front of him, ranging from sword coins of the Warring States Period to modern Yuan Datou.

"Do you have five emperors' money?" Liu Lian looked at the young man in his 20s in front of him.

"Yes, yes, do you want the real one or the imitation one? The real one comes in five hundred strings, and the imitation one costs five yuan each. You can choose whatever you like on the ground." Pointing to the pile of coins on the ground, the young man said.

"Take a few strings and let me see." Liu Lian said.

The young man pulled out two strings of five emperors' coins from his carry-on bag, all of which were braided with red string, and there was a fiery red Chinese knot on it.

"Any more?"

The young man took out three more skewers from his bag, "There are only five skewers in total."

"It's too expensive. I just use it for decoration. It's not worth it. How much is the cheapest bunch?"

"If you want it, the minimum is four hundred and five, and you won't sell it for a penny less."

Liu Lian handed the two strings of sky-high five emperors' coins to the young man, "I'll take a look again." Then Liu Lian looked through the young man's pile of coins, pinched a few more, and turned them over for a look.

Of course Liu Lian had never seen five emperors' coins before, but he had his own way of identifying them.

"Are these all five dollars?"

"Yes, both."

"That's good," Liu Lian touched one after another from the pile of coins of this young man. After a short time, he found more than 30 five emperor coins.

"I want these, how much is it?"

"One, two, three... a total of 38 coins, five yuan each, a total of one hundred and nineteen, give one hundred and eight." The young man could see that he often did this kind of business, and he was very quick to calculate.After the account was settled, he found a plastic bag along with it, and packed the copper coins bought for Liu Lian.

Liu Lian took out the money and paid the bill.

"Come back when you're free." Liu Lian went all the way out, and the coin sellers didn't forget to wave goodbye to Liu Lian.

…………

"Why do you pick all these cheap ones? Will they work?" Although Xu Fengnian didn't understand, he had the 20 card that Xu Wenchang just gave him in his pocket, so he wouldn't be so shabby no matter what he thought.

Xu Fengnian also understood the principle that what you pay for is what you get. He was afraid of offending a rich man like Xu Wenchang. The 20 was just for preparing materials. The pay will not be less than seven figures.

But there is a prerequisite for these. First, his sister Xu Wenmei's illness must be cured. If the illness cannot be cured, then Xu Wenchang is not a fool to trick him into paying.

Liu Lian also said that the five emperors' money must have been used by tens of thousands of people, so it must not be fake, because fake money will never go through so many hands, and the popularity is not enough, so the effect is definitely not good.

The so-called over ten thousand hands, the reason is very simple, human hands have vitality, people are living things, and there is yang energy, after ten thousand hands, it means that the yang qi is abundant, can resist all yin qi, and can bring people back to their souls.

The reason why Xu Wenmei was brought back to life like this was naturally because the situation was different, just like treating a disease, there are different treatment methods for the same symptom.

Liu Lian smiled: "Of course the fake ones won't work, but the real ones will definitely work."

Xu Fengnian was taken aback, "What? You just touch it, how do you know it's true? Do you have clairvoyance?"

"It's all made of copper, and you can't see it even with a see-through eye."

Xu Fengnian was even more surprised, "Then how did you see it?"

"There are many ways to fake ancient coins, but some of them are indeed very similar, but no matter how similar they are, they are still fake."

Liu Lian explained: "In ancient times, the method of casting money was the sand-foundation method. What is the sand-foundation method? It is to cast a sand mold with the mother money, and then use the sand mold to make it again. The texture of real coins is generally more compact and meticulous, which has been handed down to this day. A layer of dark brown patina is naturally produced on the surface, which makes people feel that the anger has faded away and the color is soft. However, the casting process of counterfeit products is generally sloppy, resulting in loose money, which makes people feel very angry. Although it has been polished, it is not as smooth as natural wear."

"The most important point is that the real coin is made of sand in the whole box, the pressure of the sand mold is uniform, and the thickness of the coin is the same. The counterfeit coin is as for a mother coin mold, and the thickness of the coin is different due to deformation. Of course , The square space on the side and the middle of the money is also an important factor to distinguish the authenticity."

As an ancient person, no matter which dynasty the money is from, or what words are printed on the copper coin, it is the same. This is Liu Lian's and others' currency in circulation. It is like letting modern people distinguish between real and fake paper money. Naturally, it is very clear.

"It goes without saying about these things. The five emperors' money actually only cares about one factor, which is true or false. It has little to do with whether it is worn or not. The more worn it is, the more it shows that there are more people and more yang energy. The effect of summoning souls is stronger it is good."

While walking, Liu Lian explained to Xu Fengnian some knowledge about coins and how to distinguish them, but suddenly there was an applause from behind, "Well said!"

Liu Lian looked back and saw an old man with white beard and hair, in good spirits, following behind the two of them.

Liu Lian was a little stunned, but still smiled and said, "Hi, old man."

"What you said just now is very good. I didn't expect you to have rich knowledge of coins, and you also know so much about the efficacy of five emperors' coins. It's rare, rare." The old man said.

"Old man, please speak up if you have anything to say." Liu Lian didn't know the purpose of the old man's visit, so he asked directly.

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, I just heard your explanation about the five emperors' money, and I feel that I have met a bosom friend, so how about it, little brother, do you have time to sit in my shop and have a cup of tea together?"

Liu Lian looked at this old man with a square face, white beard, and red face. He was dressed in a white Tang suit, which was spotless. With his snow-white hair combed back, he looked like an extraterrestrial expert.

"That's annoying!"

It happened that Liu Lian and Xu Fengnian were fine, and they bought the five emperors' money, and then they had to wait for Xu Wenchang's letter, so they happened to be fine at this time.

The old man led Liu Lian and Xu Fengnian, walked back, and happened to come to an antique shop named Rongbaozhai in front of the Antique Street.

This made Liu Lian burst into laughter. It seems that some antique shops have similar names, and the same is true of Cui Yunsheng's Xiangbaozhai.

"Little friend, please come in."

The old man entered the store and casually ordered the clerk, "Brew me a pot of tea." After speaking, he turned to Liu Lian and the other two, "This is a small shop opened by me, my surname is Rong, Rong Guiren, may I ask what your name is? "

"Liu Lian, this is Xu Fengnian." Liu Lian introduced himself to Xu Fengnian and the old man.

"Little friend, why do you know so much about the five emperors' money? Dare I ask what kind of occupation you do?"

"Mr. Feng Shui, hehe." Liu Lian didn't hide anything.

"Hehe, it's exactly as I expected. I see that the little friend has a wonderful face. He is not an ordinary person. It turns out that he is a master of Fengshui."

"I don't dare to take the praise from the old man." Liu Lian was tight-lipped, but he was wondering what the old man wanted to do.

"I happened to come to Xinyi today, so I met Xiaoyou, and I heard Xiaoyou's wonderful discussion about the five emperors' money. This cannot but be called fate."

"Hehe, it's fate to meet an old man with exquisite bones like the old man."

"Since I'm lucky enough to meet you, can you please show me my face or fortune?"

"Hehe, it's not good, please forgive me, old man."

"But it doesn't matter."

"The old man's life palace is wide and full, which is a face of great wealth and wealth. The official salary palace is upright and plump, which means that the old man has a successful career and a good future fortune. The nose is tall, round and straight, and the color is moist, which is wealth. Wealth, a sign of health and longevity, and the Fortune Palace is plump and bright, which is a sign of great blessing, but..."

When Liu Lian said this, he hesitated to speak, but the old man was secretly startled. Seeing Liu Lian stopped, he hurriedly said:

"Little friend has something to say, but it's okay to say it!"

　Today is Chinese New Year, I wish you all a happy new year and a happy family!
