Chapter 3 [Feng Hua Zhengmao]

Speaking of which, I opened the mahogany box by dividing it by two. When I opened it, I saw that there were three things in the box.WWW.tsxsw.COM

A little red book and a picture frame belong to the fat man’s father and mother. I didn’t realize that his tall and fat father was still an infatuated man. I have never seen his mother at all. I don’t know how many years he has been dead. How many years have he passed away?

Hiding this photo!

After seeing the last thing, the fat man and I finally let go of our high-hanging hearts. It was an exquisite snuff bottle.

This thing can be sold for some money. I raised the snuff bottle in front of my eyes and looked at it carefully against the sun. The entire snuff bottle was exquisite and small, about 6 or 7 centimeters high. It had a translucent bottom and a red dragon pattern surrounding it.

The body has the inscription "Qianlong Year Made" written on the bottom.

"How's it going? Why don't you say something!" He saw me holding up the snuff bottle and looking at it carefully without making a sound, which made the fat man anxious!

"It's not bad. A snuff bottle from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty is worth two cents depending on its appearance!" I made my judgment confidently.

"Did you read that correctly?" Fatty asked.

Damn, I can still be wrong about this. There are a lot of these things at home. I have played with them since I was a child. If the Red Guards hadn’t ransacked and destroyed many of my homes last time, I would have really despised this one! I said angrily.

He glanced at the fat man and dared to doubt my vision.

"That's what I said! Who of us is following whom? How can we not trust you?" The fat man saw that he had said the wrong thing and quickly made amends.

"But...how can this thing be from the Qing Dynasty? I see that when you used to exchange things for money, weren't they at least from the Ming Dynasty? Is this from the Qing Dynasty valuable?"

I stuffed the snuff bottle into my arms and left the box that we had turned over on the floor without clearing it up. I grabbed the fat man and walked out, giving him some literacy lessons as I walked.

"Snuff was introduced to China in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. People with old noses used nose boxes. Snuff bottles are a specialty of China. There was no such thing before the Qing Dynasty!"



While talking, I came to the commission shop and looked inside. The stingy old man was not there. There was a young man about our age sitting above.

This kid’s name is Jin Daya, and we are considered buddies, and he is also a famous game player of this generation. The year before last, he got into a fight with someone and cost him money. Not to mention, his front teeth were broken off by a brick.

His grandfather was so distressed that he got a gold front tooth from somewhere and put it in for him. According to the boy Jin Daya, a hand-over craftsman broke it out of the dead man's mouth. But this boy didn't feel sick yet.

, when he has nothing to do, he will grin at people and show off his gold teeth. He really scares a lot of people. These days, everyone is short of food and clothing. Who has the ability to get a gold tooth!

The second time he came, everyone called him "Big Golden Tooth", but not many people knew his real name.

We drank a few drinks with Da Jinya and fought several times together, and we were considered buddies. After we got acquainted with each other, he let us know the truth. It turned out that his grandfather, the old vampire, was also a hand-fighting craftsman when he was young.

, was passed on to his generation. Firstly, Da Jinya was born with asthma and could not do this job. Secondly, in the new society, the business of tip-toeing was not a respectable industry after all, so it was not passed on to him.

.

As I said, why is this old man so vicious? It turns out he is not an outsider. After liberation, his old man took advantage of his familiarity with the antique business and got a job in a commission shop, playing drums.

son's business.

It just so happens that this kid is a born bad guy, and he is interested in the business of reverse fighting. Even the deceiver has learned something from him. One time I got drunk and I boasted that our old Zhang family has been a gold mine for generations.

Lieutenant Colonel, I let this kid hear it, and Jiantian pestered me to ask about my knowledge in the field. After a while, we all became familiar with each other.

Now that classes are out anyway, he and his grandfather are here to entrust the president to see more. He has seen a lot, and he really knows a lot about antiques.

As soon as he saw me and the fat man coming in, Big Gold Tooth immediately ran down to say hello with a beaming smile:

"Brother Tao, Brother Fat, I haven't seen you for a while, what else is there to do?"

Da Jinya is a pretty good person, he is a relatively honest type, and he always smiles and gets to know everyone he meets. It’s just that gold tooth that sparkles in people’s eyes.

"Speak politely, don't be so arrogant and swaying with a cheerful smile! Take it, a snuff bottle from the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty."

Big Gold Tooth didn't say anything. He took the snuff bottle I handed over with a smile, looked at it carefully, and clicked his tongue while looking at it.

After a long while, he took his eyes out of the snuff bottle and said with a smile: "Taozi is not an amateur, so I won't say more. This snuff bottle is a good thing and has been well preserved. It was made during the Qianlong period.

There are too many of these things in existence, so they are not worth much money..."

At this point, Big Gold Tooth couldn't go on. Didn't you see that the fat man next to him was clenching his fist so hard that it made a crackling sound?

"Okay!" I waved my hand to signal him not to do this, and I asked him to continue talking. I don't know what he was going to say. "I think you are destined to play drums. If you have the same virtue as your grandfather, it won't matter to you anyway."

There is nothing good in your mouth. If you can’t survive in the future, just go play with antiques. You can deceive a lot of people just by relying on your mouth!”

This kid has his grandfather's bad habits. In his eyes, there are no good things in this world. But these days, antiques are not worth much, and my buddy is short of money for food, so he has to knock out his teeth and teeth.

Swallowed by blood, I admit it.

"You can just make a price, stop talking nonsense!"

"Then it's 100 yuan, okay, let's seal the deal!" Da Jinya said cheerfully.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, you have a good conscience!" In the current world, I would be satisfied if I could sell this snuff bottle for 50, but I didn't expect that the big gold tooth would sell for 100.

"Which one of us is following which one? After all, this money belongs to the public, and the wealth should not go to outsiders!" Da Jinya said and came forward, took out a cigarette and smoked it.

I lit up the cigarette and took a deep breath. I felt that all the pores in my body were opened. It felt so good! I have been having trouble with economy cigarettes for the past few days. Even a peony made me feel refreshed.

"Come on, buddy, I don't know about you yet, let's just tell you, what's your purpose!" Who is Big Jinya? He's the master of plucking geese. Brothers are brothers. When it comes to business, don't look at him smiling all day long.

He has always been merciless.

"It's nothing, aren't you and Fat Brother going to jump in the queue in a few days? I asked around, your school is going to northern Shaanxi, it's a great place! It's been a good place for back-and-forth fights since ancient times, this... we

Let’s put it together, brother Tao, with your method, it’s no big deal to fight upside down. Brother, I don’t have any other skills, but when it comes to bright weapons, we still have some ideas!”

Well, why did Big Jinya change his gender? He is waiting for me here! However, when he said that, my heart started to move! I don’t know what is going on in that place in northern Shaanxi. If I really can’t survive,

This is also the way to go.

"Then let's do this first, and we'll contact you later!" He left some room in his words, took the money from Big Gold Tooth, and pulled the fat man out with him.

"Okay, buddy, I'll be waiting for your news!" Da Jinya was an alert person, and he sensed something was wrong in my words, and sent the fat man and me out of the door in a hurry.

After leaving the gate of the entrustment house, Fatty and I had a hearty meal at Lao Mo. In a few days, we were going to northern Shaanxi to join the queue. I didn’t know what we would have to eat in order to have another good meal.

Fatty and I both had problems with our family background. There was no need to think about joining the army. We could only respond to the call of the Communist Party and jump in the queue. But later I heard that those buddies who stayed in Beijing and refused to leave - in terms of nature, they were

For example, the top households who later became famous all over the country were all assigned jobs. When I heard this news, I regretted it! I had no choice, at that time the fat man and I were already shivering in the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi!

That year, I, Fatty, and Da Jinya were both 18 years old, and we happened to be schoolmates and were in our prime.

That year, Fatty and I were dragged by a train to the mountains and ravines in northern Shaanxi, where we began our career of back-fighting.

That year, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan jumped in and arrived at Ganggangyingzi in Inner Mongolia.
