127 A good start

This camera is useless to him.

Even though he only spent a few dozen yuan to buy it, he also knew that the camera was not valuable, but the film inside might be valuable.

But he himself has never had the courage to dismantle it, because he knows his technology, and if it is dismantled, the dozens of yuan will be wasted.

But if you sell it to others, it's like betting on stones to see who is willing to bet.

Unfortunately, his idea was good, but it turned out that the camera had been in his hand for three years, and it had become a problem for him.

Today, this guy is willing to pay 100 to win it, so he is relieved.

Chen Rui took out a roll of banknotes from his arms, took out one, and patted it into the uncle's hand.

The uncle's eyes lit up when he looked at his roll of banknotes.

"Young man, I will come to set up a stall in July, and I will bring a new batch of Leica cameras then."

"If you are interested, you can come to me at any time."

Chen Rui smiled and waved his hand: "No problem."

After saying that, he left the tent, wrapped the camera and put it in his backpack.

The reason why he took a fancy to this camera was not only because it exuded the light of a treasure.

Another reason is that the light emitted by this camera is the same as the light emitted by the golden Zolgi he collected at the Rose Bowl.

He sold that camera to Yang Qianshan.

But he kept the film inside and found someone to develop it, so there was nothing surprising about it.

The photos were all in Russian, along with some aerial photos of freight trains.

Because he didn't understand Russian, Chen Rui didn't pay much attention.

But he had a feeling that the answer to the content of those photos might be found in the film of the camera in his hand...

I got today's first blood without spending much money, and Chen Rui was very satisfied.

I continued walking deeper into the market and walked another hundred or so meters.

He stopped in front of another stall. The items sold in this stall were all hanging.

There was a set of airtight iron armor placed at the door, the kind of full-body armor worn by European warriors in the Middle Ages.

Except for the eyes and nostrils of the helmet, there are holes for the mouth, and the rest of the helmet is tightly wrapped in iron armor.

However, this armor is fake at first glance, because there is no light coming out.

Chen Rui estimated that it should be a modern imitation.

Inside the tent are several shelves arranged in an orderly manner.

It is filled with all kinds of swords, guns, swords and halberds, from rusty axes to two-handed broadswords that are nearly a person tall.

Then to the round wooden shields of Nordic warriors, there are all kinds of medieval weapons here.

But these things are not what Chen Rui is interested in.

What interested him was a candlestick placed on the ground near the tent.

This thing is very black, with a circular base underneath and a larger circular opening on top.

The diameter of the flare is almost twelve centimeters, and the height of the entire candlestick is twenty centimeters.

This merchant, probably to show his uniqueness, placed four candlesticks of different styles at the four corners of the tent.

There are thick candles burning brightly on them, probably to create a medieval and ancient atmosphere with the candlelight.

Chen Rui just glanced at it as he passed by and was shocked by the green light emitting from the candlestick.

He could guarantee that the green light emitted by this candlestick was the same as the light from the bronze rhinoceros bottle he got at the San Francisco Fair.

These days, whenever he has free time at home, he will take out the rhino bottle and play with it.

Therefore, he was very familiar with the green light emitting from this kind of bronze vessel.

There was a burst of ecstasy in his heart. He had complained earlier that there was no good stuff in this big collection. It seemed that he was being careless!

I just got the first blood, and the second blood came right away. It seems like today is going to be a good start!

At this time, he suppressed the surprise in his heart and walked into the tent.

The owners of this tent are a father and daughter dressed in medieval Viking costumes.

Let me go, are you selling antiques, or are you here to have sex?

Chen Rui complained in his heart, but he smiled on his face.

"You can read whatever you like. But I have a rule here, which is no bargaining."

The boss with long hair and beard said arrogantly.

Chen Rui nodded and then started walking around in the tent.

He put on makeup, picked up a few European-style long swords, and held a few sword flowers.

He picked up the round shield and made two gestures.

Finally he came to the innermost one, in front of a candlestick.

This candlestick is not the one that emits blue light.

This is just a beautifully crafted antique bronze candlestick in the shape of a lamb.

On the horns on the head of the lamb, there is just a place to place the candle.

This candlestick was obviously a modern handicraft, and Chen Rui pretended to admire it and praised it.

"Boss, these candlesticks of yours are really beautiful."

"Ah, haha, no, you are really discerning."

When he hears others praising his own things, the boss's face immediately lights up with joy.

"This is not the most beautiful, this is even better."

The boss was obviously a guy who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. After he praised him, his enthusiasm became more intense.

Pull Chen Rui to the front of another candlestick.

This candlestick is a bronze puppy and the workmanship is very cute.

This one has an opening in the puppy's back, and the candle can be inserted into it.

Not only can you light wax, but if you have lamp oil, you can also inject it into it and add a twist to it, then it will be a kerosene lamp.

There is also a bronze piglet, paired with the most inconspicuous candlestick at the door, making a set of four.

"Wow, they're so beautiful! Boss, do you sell these candlesticks?"

Chen Rui asked, but at the same time he was worried that the boss would say he wouldn't sell it.

Because the swords, guns, swords and halberds in this room all have price tags on them, the bronze candlesticks surrounding them are all bare.

"For sale! Four hundred pieces. If you like, you can take them all."

The boss's answer was very straightforward, and Chen Rui knew that he was overthinking it.

In order to avoid long nights and long dreams, he did not bargain this time, but agreed immediately.

"Deal! Four, I want them all, wrap them all up for me."

The boss didn't expect him to be so happy and was stunned when he heard him agree.

Immediately, a flash of ecstasy flashed in his eyes and he said hello.

Then he turned around and waved to his daughter, who was also dressed as a Viking. The two of them were very agile.

In less than ten minutes, these four candlesticks were wrapped and delivered to Chen Rui, as if he was afraid that he would regret it.

Chen Rui calmly counted out 1,600 yuan, patted it in the boss's hand, and then asked casually.

"Boss, where did you buy these copper candlesticks?"

"I like the shape of these candlesticks very much. Can you tell me so I can buy two more?"

The boss was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red and he coughed twice.

"Ahem...this..."

"Hey, let's get this straight! I bought this at their home auction at 168 Rowland Heights."
