Chapter 66: An Assortment of Antiques

On the way to the cultural relics store in Shanghai, Ji Sheng heard Chu Zhonglin, Zhou Xiaomin and Wang Yuncang tell a lot about the cultural relics store.

In the current era, unlike modern society, there are multiple channels for antique trading, such as auctions and private management. At present, antiques are generally sold only to cultural relic shops, which is the only channel.

If you sell it to other places, sorry, the law clearly states that this kind of behavior is speculation.

Almost at the cultural relics store, Chu Zhonglin was still talking eloquently, "...Precious cultural relics are sent to museums, and are usually sold to foreign guests as commodities in exchange for precious foreign exchange, but these years have tightened up a lot, and many cultural relics They are not sold to foreigners anymore, and of course some still need foreign exchange certificates, especially at the Friendship Store.”

Ji Sheng was taken aback when he heard that, "The Friendship Store also sells antiques?"

"That's right, didn't you go to the Friendship Store?" Chu Zhonglin said speechlessly, "Didn't you see any antiques for sale?"

At that time, Ji Sheng was only looking at the prices of electrical appliances, but he really didn't notice.

Wang Yuncang smacked his lips and said, "The Friendship Store requires foreign exchange certificates to buy things. It is not as good as the cultural relics store. Although the cultural relics store used to require foreign exchange certificates, but in recent years they have started to accept Ruanmei banknotes, but the price will increase by [-]%."

Ji Qing snorted and said, "Isn't this discriminating against our own people?"

Ji Aiguo nodded in agreement.

Zhou Xiaomin snorted, "This is called discrimination? In the past, Chinese people were not allowed to enter the Friendship Store. The country wants to create foreign exchange. Do you understand foreign exchange? Now that the economic situation is better, why don't we let ordinary people in? So say it." There is no discrimination or non-discrimination, it's all about money."

Ji Cheng doesn't know if it's different or not, but he agrees with Zhou Xiaomin's last sentence, it's all about money.

Into the cultural relics shop.

As soon as Ji Sheng walked in, he was blinded by the dazzling antiques.

On one side are innumerable ceramic vessels, on the other side are jewelry and jade wares, and there are elegant wood bamboo carvings, copper and tin products, Jingtai enamel, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, etc.

Even Ji Sheng saw the mahogany furniture with the most exquisite carvings, which looked a bit like sea yellow.

There were also a few foreigners hanging out.

Ji Aiguo saw so many antiques directly there, he was a little restrained and said: "Brother, I... I won't go inside."

Ji Sheng looked over with question marks all over his head.

Ji Aiguo was a little scared and said: "Don't wait until I break something with my hands and feet, then I won't be able to pay for it."

"Yes, I won't go in either." Chu Zhonglin came to his senses.

"We are waiting for you outside."

"Some things need foreign exchange certificates to buy. We are outside. If you shout, we can exchange foreign exchange certificates for you as soon as possible."

"Hey, 800 yuan for a small porcelain bottle?"

Ji Qing, Zhou Xiaomin and others said so. When Wang Yuncang saw the small porcelain vase with a price of [-] foreign exchange certificates in the glass cabinet not far away, his eyes almost popped out.

Ji Sheng didn't force it, so he asked them to wait at the door.

Walking in, the outermost area is some ceramics placed on shelves, some of which may be more precious are placed in glass cabinets.

There are two foreign guests who are a bit like Japanese people also wandering here.

Ji Sheng doesn't know much about antiques, but he knows one thing, the antiques sold here are actually authenticated by experts.

Therefore, he doesn't need to understand, he just needs to buy relatively expensive ones.

After all, Ji Sheng didn't want to catch the leak, he just wanted to resell time and space to earn enough difference.

Suddenly, Ji Sheng saw a porcelain pen holder in a glass cabinet. He didn't pay attention at first, but the price of [-] foreign exchange certificates on it attracted his attention.

"A porcelain pen holder sells for [-] foreign exchange certificates, so it's probably a good thing."

Ji Sheng leaned forward to watch.

I saw the words "Qing. Kangxi. The red holy master in the blue and white glaze is praised by the virtuous minister" written on the product introduction.

This porcelain pen holder is very simple. On the round porcelain pen holder, the article "Ode to the Holy Lord's Worthy Minister" is written in green material, and a red seal is engraved in the blank space below. The font is a bit like seal script.

Ji Sheng could vaguely understand "Kangxi Chuangu".

At the bottom of the side, you can still see the six words "Kangxi Years of the Qing Dynasty".

It looks like a good thing!

Ji Sheng immediately called the staff and asked, "One thousand and six foreign exchange certificates?"

The staff member was a tall, thin man in his 30s wearing glasses. He nodded and said, "Well, one thousand and six."

Ji Sheng asked, "Do you accept soft girl banknotes?"

"Excuse me, sir, because this is a high-quality product, only foreign exchange certificates are accepted." The staff member said politely.

Ji Sheng hurriedly said: "Alright then, just wait, I'll send someone to exchange foreign exchange certificates, you must keep this porcelain pen holder for me."

"I can't guarantee that."

The staff didn't promise anything.

Ji Sheng also knew this was the truth, so he didn't say anything more, he ran outside and called Ji Aiguo and others, and took out 6000 yuan from his pocket, and asked them to help find someone to exchange it into foreign exchange certificates.

He brought 5 yuan this time, just to get more good things in the cultural relics store.

It is estimated that [-] can be exchanged for [-] foreign exchange certificates.

Ji Sheng felt that he had 4000 foreign exchange certificates, plus [-] Yuan Ruanmei banknotes around him, which should be enough to buy a lot of good things.

Finished.

He went inside again.

If you don't go in, you can still watch it. Once you go in, he's in a bad mood.

I saw a man and a woman who were looking at things in the same row as him before, talking to the staff with bad words to buy the porcelain pen holder that Ji Sheng had taken a fancy to before.

Hey!

These two little days are stupid!

Ji Sheng frowned, but he knew that the goods waited for no one, and he didn't have foreign exchange certificates in his pocket, so he couldn't help it if he was preempted.

"Forget it, look at other things."

Ji Sheng didn't bother to argue with those two Japanese fools, so he turned around and continued looking for porcelain.

Not long after, he saw another amphora from the Daoguang period on the glass counter, on which the words "Famous Chinese Fushou Pattern Amphora" were clearly written, and the price was [-] foreign exchange certificates.

Because the thing was robbed by the stupid Japanese before, Ji Sheng was afraid that this thing would be robbed again, so he made a note of it without making a sound, and continued to walk to the side.

Suddenly, he saw a square brush holder with painted landscapes on the shelf. According to the introduction, it was made in the Republic of China, and the price was only 200 yuan.

Ji Sheng wasn't sure whether the 200 yuan was a foreign exchange certificate or a soft girl's banknote, so he called the staff again, "How do you sell this thing? The foreign exchange certificate or the soft girl's banknote?"

"Oh, two hundred for foreign exchange certificates, and two hundred and sixty for Ruanmei banknotes." The staff replied to him.

Ji Sheng remembered that porcelain from the Republic of China was becoming more and more popular in modern society, and when he heard that it could be bought with Ruanmei banknotes, he opened his mouth and said, "Give it to me..."

Before he finished speaking, the two-day stupid man who robbed him came over again. The man was probably in his 40s, and he spoke a lot of Japanese.

The staff immediately returned a paragraph of Japanese with a smile, and then took out the pen holder of the Republic of China, and the Japanese fools went to check out.

Ji Sheng was taken aback for a moment, and grabbed the staff, "I fell in love with this first, why did you sell it to them?"

The staff frowned and smiled wryly, "Sir, I'm sorry, foreign guests are given priority."

The two dumb people seemed to be able to understand Mandarin, but they didn't speak it fluently. After hearing the staff's answer, their faces showed complacency.

What are you!

Ji Sheng is really angry!

It's not that the staff said "foreign guests are preferred", but because the stupid Japanese didn't have any intention to buy at all, and both times they came to grab it because he was going to buy first.

Ji Sheng could see that these two stupid people probably didn't know anything about antiques, so they didn't make a move, but when they saw that he wanted to buy it, they regarded him as an "expert", so they rushed to buy it.

Think of buddies as free appraisal experts?

Ji Sheng was really annoyed and laughed, thinking that I am like you, I don't even know the value of antiques, so I still want to grab them?

Okay!

Like grabbing, right?

That buddy will create a huge amount of foreign exchange for the cultural relics store today!

Ji Sheng decided to give courtesy to these two unkind Japanese fools.
