MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 75 Northeast China Sea

The gun was stuffed into his backpack by Li Xiaoshuai, because he didn't have a gun license yet. He was going to get a gun license immediately after going back, otherwise the gun would not be used for the rest of his life.

Ask Frank again, have you bought anything good?

Frank shook his head vigorously, saying that the street was full of garbage, and he didn't like anything.

Li Xiaoshuai: "You must have the energy to find a needle in a haystack."

"Follow you and you'll have meat to eat, why waste your spare time?"

After walking for a while, the ability found a pair of black square boxes, indicating "Silver candlesticks produced in England in the 17th century."

The stall owner was a shrewd middle-aged white woman. Seeing Li Xiaoshuai approaching, she smiled all over her face and said that her goods were all cheap and high-quality, even though she had chosen them well.

Li Xiaoshuai pointed to the candlestick and asked for the price. The stall owner said that it was an antique, a product from the Queen Victoria period, and the price was very expensive.

Pfft, this fake connoisseur of half a bottle of water is still more than 200 years apart from the 17th century and the Victorian period.

Picking up the candlesticks, Li Xiaoshuai examined them carefully. The pair of candlesticks were square, hollow inside and very well preserved.

Even if it is oxidized and blackened due to age, you can still see the floral decorations carved around it. After weighing the weight, it is estimated that it can weigh 200 grams. The two together are almost a pound of silver.

This kind of thing was used in ancient times; whether in the East or the West, it was used by rich people like the rich. Poor people, it's good to be able to fill your stomach, where is there any spare money to make silver candle holders.

"How much is this pair?"

"Yeah." The female stall owner rolled her eyes a few times and said, "Victorian, $6,000."

Li Xiaoshuai put the candlestick on and said, "Oh, it's too expensive. I can only pay 2500. I don't want any more."

The stall owner said it was all silver, almost a pound of sterling silver.

Frank replied, silver is worthless now.

Yes, silver is really worthless now. The antique Yingyang that Li Xiaoshuai picked up is only 100 dollars a piece, can this pair of silver candlesticks be worth 60 silver coins?

"No, this is definitely not possible!" The female stall owner said very firmly.

Li Xiaoshuai took Frank and turned around and left, $6,000, that's killing people, it's impossible. He also whispered to Frank, if you count to ten, the stall owner will definitely call us back.

Frank really started to count, and as soon as he reached six, the female stall owner said, "Come back, let's discuss it."

Back at the booth, Li Xiaoshuai still said $2,500, no more. He is sure of this price, the female boss will definitely buy it.

Because the female boss shouted, Li Xiaoshuai knew that the female boss with two knives came to price her silver candlestick according to the coffee pot in the early Victorian period.

"Sold it to you." The female boss was busy collecting money and said, "Sir, you are a shrewd businessman."

Frank said proudly: "We are treasure hunters, very successful treasure hunters."

"No wonder" the female boss finally understood.

She also asked Li Xiaoshuai, am I right about the dating of this pair of candlesticks?

Li Xiaoshuai was secretly amused, and what he said was outrageous. If you are complacent, you are still doing second-hand business at this level, so let's wash and sleep.

After walking away, Frank asked curiously, how much can this pair of candlesticks make?

"Bought it for 2500, I want to sell it for 8000."

"The profiteer! But I like it."

After that, Li Xiaoshuai didn't like it anymore. When it was time to eat, Bo Yang also gathered together. The three first found the venue of the auction, and then found an Italian pizza restaurant, each of whom had a seafood pizza. Slowly Sit and eat to kill extra time.

The auction starts at one o'clock, and at 12:30, guests are allowed in to view all 25 lots in this auction.

Li Xiaoshuai saw that there were mountain bikes, old antique clocks, watches, etc. Among them, the biggest lot was a BMW 7-series sedan, which was pasted on the display stand in the form of a photo.

There is also a line of small characters under the photo, which means to see the real thing first, please go to the parking lot. In addition, the starting price is indicated below each lot.

These are not Li Xiaoshuai's dishes. The oldest one here is the table clock. Compared with the silver candlesticks that Li Xiaoshuai bought at the flea market, even his grandson is inferior.

Among them, there are only two pieces that Li Xiaoshuai can take a fancy to. One is six seals in a brocade box. These are standard domestic rabbit products. The materials of the seals are different, jade, agate, Qingtian stone, and horns. .

When the ability is activated, the years of the six seals are displayed, and one of the seals on white agate is the most valuable, and it is shown that it was produced by the court of Qianlong.

"It came out of the palace." Li Xiaoshuai was very interested.

Another lot is a set of gaiwan tea sets, four sets of gaiwan and a hexagonal Hetian jasper tray.

The gaiwan is the Daoguangnian yellow ground pastel consecrated flower pattern, and the tray is the Jiaqingnian Hetian jasper, which has been tested by supernatural powers, and the accuracy is beyond doubt.

After reading the serial numbers of these two lots, Li Xiaoshuai kept it in mind.

Standing in the distance, he also secretly looked at the official kiln porcelain, but when he saw that there were not many people standing in front of this set of porcelain, he felt a little more at ease.

Entering the venue of the auction, Li Xiaoshuai saw that it was like a larger conference room, there were no stools, everyone was standing, and a high wooden platform was built at the front.

Moreover, the auction still pays for the item in a single auction, which is basically the same as the warehouse auction.

Frank also said with disdain, this is a grass-roots team, maybe it is a husband and wife shop.

"That's right." As far as Li Xiaoshuai knows, in Europe and the United States ~www.novelbuddy.com~ small auction houses like this are mostly in this form. Even if it's not for husband and wife, it's just a small family business.

This kind of auction house has insufficient financial resources and limited vision. From time to time, there will be big leaks to be picked up. Li Xiaoshuai is very much looking forward to this.

The auctioneer came to the stage with a small wooden hammer. Frank said that this guy was the one who posted the small advertisement yesterday.

Someone next to him said, "Yes, this auction house is a small family business. The husband and wife plus their two sons have everything done.

Li Xiaoshuai said heartily, I don't care about the size of the auction house, I have supernatural abilities, I just want to get cheap and high-quality auctions!

After a few words, the auction started. Li Xiaoshuai looked around again. Seeing that there were still a lot of customers coming, he was a little worried that someone would bid with him.

The first lot to be moved to the display stand is an antique clock that is not very old.

The middle-aged auctioneer strongly advocated that the price of this lot was not expensive and it was economical. It was bought and placed in the living room. It was absolutely high-end and elegant, and the starting price was $500.

Li Xiaoshuai looked around and found that very few people liked it. Each time the price was increased by 10 yuan and 20 yuan, the clock was finally bought for 800 yuan.

In Li Xiaoshuai's opinion, this price is still very affordable if you have spare money in your pocket.

The second piece is a watch.

The third piece is a brand new mountain bike.

The fourth item was a box of Rabbit Country seals that Li Xiaoshuai liked, and the brocade box was moved to the display stand. Presumably the auctioneer's son, also took out a slip of paper with six stamps to show the customers.

Li Xiaoshuai felt that it was precisely this superfluous move that he screwed up a good thing.
