Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure

Chapter 193 Technology and Hard Work (Happy New Year~)

"Take a look, take a look, this incense burner from the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, not 888 million, not 880,000, just 88,000 and you can take it home!"

"My mother is seriously ill, so I'm reluctantly selling a family heirloom. It's a jade ring from the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. There's only one of its kind. Come and take a look, bosses! I'll sell it to you at a low price if the price is right!"

"I just got some old stuff from the countryside. If you're any connoisseurs, come take a look and see if you want to buy it or not!"

"This blue and white porcelain, handed down from my ancestors, was made by the imperial court during the Qing Dynasty. There is only one of this kind, and only those who are lucky enough can get it!"

……

After Bai Xi and others entered Panjiayuan, they soon passed by the street stall area.

In an instant, the endless stream of hawking sounds filled the ears of Bai Xi and others.

At first Bai Xi didn't pay much attention to it, but as she got deeper into it, she realized how exaggerated and outrageous what these people were selling.

Any piece of porcelain can be said to be made by the imperial court of the Qing Dynasty.

Any three-legged incense burner can be said to be from the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty.

Today, Bai Xi has gone through so many auctions, and he has also joined a group chat with top domestic collectors. He will share news about his collections from time to time, and some will even debate the dating of a certain collection. You know what, it's extremely interesting to watch it as fun.

As the saying goes, if you read 300 Tang poems, you will be able to recite them even if you can't write poems.

So although her knowledge of antiques is not as profound as that of other collectors, she has at least gotten started.

Therefore, the hawking and propaganda of these people sounded a bit outrageous to her.

Take the three-legged incense burner for example. If it really was from the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the starting price would be over 10 million yuan if it was put in an auction house. How could it appear on a street stall, and it is even more impossible for it to be sold for only 88,000 yuan.

Moreover, she herself has one of these things, and it’s from the Xuande period. How could she not know whether it’s real or not?

There was also the guy selling jade rings. He kept saying that his parents were seriously ill, but his expression didn't look heavy at all. Instead, he was scrolling through the Douyin app with girls like crazy. Every time he scrolled through it, it was a girl with black stockings. He looked like a pervert, and you could almost drool.

“You guys here…”

"Has it always been this exaggerated?"

Bai Xi looked at the vendors around him with great interest, and asked Guo Jianhua beside him in a low voice.

"Cough cough..."

"Boss Bai, there are thousands of stalls here, and there are all kinds of people."

"Don't think these people are exaggerating, but there are indeed some naive people who can't resist the temptation and go to their stalls. In the end, they are ripped off without realizing it, and they go home secretly happy."

Guo Jianhua coughed twice and responded with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xi did not find what Guo Jianhua said strange.

The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. Take the scams that many normal people think are extremely outrageous, for example. Thousands of people still fall for them every year, so everyone must admit that some people's thinking processes are different from those of normal people.

"Eh?"

"Have you noticed that whenever these vendors see us, their hawking becomes several times louder than before?"

"You mean, in their eyes, we're just like fat sheep?"

Bai Xi raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly asked Guo Jianhua again, his tone a little eager to try.

"Forehead……"

"That's roughly it."

"Because Mr. Bai, you look very rich."

Guo Jianhua smiled awkwardly and responded.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xi rolled his eyes and said nothing. He continued to walk towards Panjiayuan with Guo Jianhua, Xiao Rui and others.

Half an hour later, Bai Xi finally understood why Panjiayuan was known as the country's largest and most comprehensive collectibles market...

Because this place is really huge, and it is just a street stall area, Bai Xi felt that she had not even finished visiting one-tenth of this area in half an hour, and this was under the premise that she had never stopped at any stall.

During this time, Bai Xi was walking around and seemed to be watching the fun, but in fact her eyes were always lingering on the stalls on both sides, looking for objects similar to ancient monuments.

"and many more……"

Suddenly, Bai Xi seemed to see something out of the corner of her eye. She immediately stopped and turned to look to the right rear. She saw an ancient stele about half a meter high placed on the stall. The surface seemed to be covered with scratches and the whole thing looked extremely shabby.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

As soon as Bai Xi stopped, Xiao Rui and others also stopped.

"Feeling a bit tired."

"Just pick a stall and see if there's anything interesting."

Bai Xi responded casually, then took a step forward and strode towards the stall where the ancient stele was placed.

"boss!"

"Here are all the coins I just bought in bulk from my fellow villagers. They come from all eras. Please take your pick. As long as the price is right, I'm willing to sell them all!"

The owner of this stall was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket and cotton gloves. His cheeks were red from the cold wind. He looked honest and simple, just like a farmer.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xi smiled and responded twice.

At the same time, he raised his hand and picked up a coin from the stall, then looked at it carefully.

Eh?

It’s a Yuan Datou!

Looks like a commemorative coin!

Bai Xi felt something was wrong, but he remained calm on the surface. He asked with a smile, "Brother, how much do you want to sell this coin for?"

Upon hearing this, the stall owner leaned over to take a look and replied, "This coin is a Yuan Datou, and it seems to be a commemorative coin. If you really want it, you can give me 40,000 yuan and take it away!"

forty thousand?

Bai Xi raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing. On the surface, he seemed to be thinking, but in fact, he was using the identification function after activating the upgraded system to explore the information of this Yuan Datou coin.

Item: Coin

【Material: Silver】

[Year: 2015]

[Grade: None]

[Description: A counterfeit silver coin freshly unearthed the day before yesterday. Don’t miss it if you pass by...]

As the collection value disappeared, the information of this Yuan Datou coin soon appeared in front of Bai Xi.

?

When Bai Xi saw this information, even though she had no hope from the beginning and just wanted to test out the identification function, when this information really appeared in front of her, the corners of Bai Xi's mouth still twitched inevitably.

Outrageous!

This Yuan Datou coin, which looks like a collectible, took no more than 3 days from its actual production to its display on this stall!

It was a modern product with a total value of no more than 10 yuan, but this seemingly honest and simple stall owner asked for 40,000 yuan, and from the look of his face, he seemed to feel that he was getting less.

Now Bai Xi finally understood why this place was jokingly called the country's largest distribution center for folk handicrafts. Technology and hard work could be seen everywhere...
