As soon as Zhou Qing heard Qin Hao say he had bought a "good thing", she immediately became interested.
How much did it cost?
"Two hundred."
Qin Hao spoke the truth, his tone calm, but there was still a bit of excitement that couldn't be contained in his heart - that kind of thrill after finding a bargain was indeed hard to replace.
Gao Changjiang and Zhou Qing exchanged glances, both with somewhat subtle expressions.
After quite a while, Gao Changjiang finally spoke hesitantly
"Well..." Qin Hao, even if you were a millionaire now, it wouldn't be quite appropriate to play like this, would it?
Qin Hao was taken aback.
What does it mean?
Zhou Qing smiled, her tone carrying a hint of someone who had been through it all.
"Fake goods!" "
"It's obvious that this thing has been soaked in medicine. It looks somewhat aged, but in essence, it only costs a dozen or so yuan." "
Gao Changjiang also nodded in agreement.
Qin Hao didn't refute; he just smiled.
He turned around, took a lemon from the fruit basket in the corner, cut it open, squeezed out two drops of the juice, dropped it on the surface of the coin, and then gently wiped it a few times with a cloth.
The next second --
The two were completely stunned.
The coin, which originally had a dark copper color, quickly became bright and faintly shone with golden light under the light.
"Oh my God!" "
Is this gold? "!"
Zhou Qing almost shouted it out loud.
"Fake with gold?" "!"
This must be at least ten grams, right? Isn't that several thousand yuan?"
The two people were even more excited than Qin Hao.
"This is the real bargain!" "
Brother, how are you feeling? Come on, tell me!"
Just then, the store door was pushed open.
Shopkeeper Wu walked in, followed by two foreigners.
"Uncle!" "
Zhou Qing rushed to speak up, "Qin Hao got a bargain today!"
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Wu also became interested. "Getting a bargain on the first day?" Bring it to me and have a look."
Qin Hao handed over the coin.
At first, Shopkeeper Wu didn't pay much attention, but when he saw the details clearly, his expression changed instantly.
"This..."
How much did you spend?
"Two hundred."
"I bought it from the bald head." "
Shopkeeper Wu was taken aback at first, but then couldn't help laughing.
"Ha ha... I didn't expect that."
That guy will also be taken advantage of one day. What a retribution!
He lowered his head and looked closely, his tone gradually becoming serious.
This should be the Chunhua Yuanbao gold coin from the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty.
The four characters on the front are in imperial calligraphy style, with a steady brushstroke.
The lotus Buddha statue on the reverse side features a boy worshipping Guanyin. The lines are delicate and the relief layers are distinct.
The craftsmanship is far superior to that of ordinary counterfeits.
"Not bad."
Shopkeeper Wu nodded. "Follow me tomorrow. I'll give you a systematic explanation of the market conditions of these things."
Qin Hao's eyes lit up.
This is precisely what he most wants to learn.
Many things cannot be understood simply by looking up information; they must be guided step by step by someone.
At this moment, the man wearing gold-rimmed glasses suddenly spoke up
"Young man, could you let me have a look?"
Qin Hao nodded and handed over the gold coin.
The man examined it carefully for a while and then said:
"Mr. John really likes this gold coin. I wonder if he will sell it?" "
Shopkeeper Wu looked at Qin Hao but didn't interject.
"I have no intention of selling for the time being." "
Qin Hao's tone was calm.
The price can be negotiated.
The other party still wanted to say more.
"Antiques,"
Shopkeeper Wu spoke indifferently, "Sometimes it has little to do with the price."
The other party didn't insist any longer.
After buying other things in the store, those few people left.
Zhou Qing couldn't help muttering
Why didn't you sell just now?
Do you know that it's more cost-effective to sell to foreigners? It's not uncommon to sell the same thing to a country person for ten thousand or to them for a hundred thousand.
Qin Hao's lips twitched.
At this moment, Shopkeeper Wu returned to the counter and asked with a smile:
"Really not going to make a move?"
"Want to keep it." "
Qin Hao said, "There aren't many such gold coins left to begin with."
It doesn't matter if they are sold to the Chinese people.
Shopkeeper Wu nodded in satisfaction.
Businessmen pursue profits, but they still need to have a bottom line.
"All right." "
"I'll help you get in touch with a client. Let's talk." "
After saying that, he made a phone call.
"The person will be there soon." "
Qin Hao couldn't help asking:
How much is this thing worth approximately?
Shopkeeper Wu thought for a moment:
It was shot once a few years ago and cost around 150,000 yuan.
"There's quite a bit of exaggeration. The actual transaction price is around 80,000." "
"Eighty thousand?" "!"
Gao Changjiang and Zhou Qing both gasped at the same time.
This is enough to buy a car.
"Qin Hao, you really sent it!" "
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up
"Brother, give me some extra lessons later. I want to get a bargain too!" "
It wasn't long before the store door was pushed open again.
An elderly man, full of vigor and vitality, walked in, his mood clearly rather agitated.
"Where's that young man who immediately noticed something was wrong with the tattoo box?" "
Shopkeeper Wu immediately went forward to meet him.
"Old Master Mu, why have you come in person?" "
"Got slapped in the face!" "
The old man burst into laughter. "Old Sun said that thing was fake. I insisted it was real, but in the end..." What a disgrace!"
Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly smiled along
"Your words were too harsh. I was also mistaken at that time." "
As soon as these words were spoken, Old Mu's mood immediately lifted.
"Ha ha, so you've stumbled too." "
He looked at Qin Hao, his gaze adding a bit more sizing up.
"Young man, not bad."
"Take out the gold coins."
"Let me open my eyes too."
