Jiang Fei smiled bitterly and said nothing. He didn't even know what was going on.
How on earth did these people get this thing?
This shouldn’t be difficult to do, right? Even the uneducated villagers should know that Jintong is valuable, right? Just sell it like this?
And no one has discovered this thing in the village for so many years?
Now Jiang Fei wants to ask in detail how the steamed buns were collected.
I came too hastily, probably because it was getting dark, so I didn’t look at the big box carefully.
Otherwise, it’s not like you don’t know anything.
But he still had some doubts and couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Lin, how do you know this is a gold and bronze Bodhisattva statue from the Liao Dynasty?"
Can you tell the difference just by looking at it for a while?
Lin Gengming had not recovered from the shock. He still looked at it carefully for a long time, then shook his head and murmured: "Incredible, really incredible..."
"The most important treasure of the country..."
"Ah? What did you say?"
Only then did he react and looked at Jiang Fei in confusion.
Lin Huirou was also surprised for a long time. My father had collected antiques for so many years, but he had never received such a golden Bodhisattva.
Seeing that her father didn't hear the question, she repeated it for Jiang Fei: "Doctor Jiang asks you, how do you know this is from the Liao Dynasty?"
After Lin Gengming heard the question, he smiled and said: "I have been playing this thing for so many years, and I still have some discernment."
"The style and clothing of the Buddha statue can tell which period and era it comes from."
"Buddha statues in the Liao Dynasty are relatively round, but at the same time the decoration is relatively simple, and the carving technology is relatively rough."
"In addition, we are in the northeastern region. Eight or nine hundred years ago, this was the Liaomu era, so this thing can still be determined from the Liao Dynasty."
"But the specific period of the Liao Dynasty needs further analysis."
"But Dean Jiang, please forgive me, this thing is very hot!"
Even people in the antique circle won't collect some taboo things, and they won't even hold something like this in their hands.
If this is discovered, there may be jail time.
Jiang Fei also nodded. How could he not understand how sensitive this thing is.
If it's just a plate and a bowl, it's not that big of a deal, just keep it in your collection.
However, metal antiques are considered national treasures.
Especially this kind of Bodhisattva statue is a treasure among treasures.
He is indeed short of money and wants to make money to prepare for the future, but he will not sell national treasures without conscience.
Generally, private collections end up going abroad, which is the loss of treasures.
"I'll hand it over to the top, don't worry."
When Jiang Fei said this, there was no hesitation or reluctance.
Keeping things that should not be yours is a disaster.
Lin Gengming looked at Jiang Fei with a strange expression, and couldn't help but said: "Dean Jiang, if this thing is sold, it will be worth at least this amount!"
Lin Gengming stretched out five fingers and gestured fiercely.
"Five hundred?" Xiao Tianliang asked from the side, his eyes shining.
Lin Gengming smiled and said nothing, still holding out his fingers.
Guo Dabao was stunned and asked: "Isn't it five thousand yuan? Oh my God!"
Lin Gengming still smiled and shook his head without answering.
Jiang Fei frowned and asked, "Is it five hundred thousand?"
"Well, this is still the lowest value. If it were collected by a private person, it might reach 800,000 or even one million."
Lin Gengming nodded and said with a smile.
I just saw that when Jiang Fei heard that he was selling for 800,000 or even 1 million, he didn't blink or even show any pity.
He was even more curious about this young man. This boy was not simple.
To become the deputy director of a health center at such a young age shows that his medical skills are not low.
Now I'm testing him with money, but he doesn't have the kind of character that is blind to money, which shows that he has a good character.
"One million?"
Xiao Tianliang and Guo Dabao clenched their fists, their eyes filled with excitement.
If this were sold, oh my god, how much would it cost.
In their eyes, the value of one million can probably buy Anzhen, right?
Jiang Fei frowned and looked at the two people like this, and felt that he needed to teach them what kind of money they could make and what kind of money they couldn't make.
Otherwise, if these two guys do business in the future, they may be profiteers with no bottom line or even black-hearted businessmen.
It's just that in Lin Gengming's home, it's hard for me to talk to them, so I have to save face for them.
"Uncle Lin, I sold this snuff bottle."
Jiang Fei opened his mouth and expressed his final thoughts.
I originally wanted to bargain, but now it seems unnecessary.
Lin Gengming sighed. Why didn't he want to get such a Bodhisattva statue? Unfortunately, he was afraid that he would lose his life and not use it.
"How about I give you a thousand yuan for this snuff bottle?"
Lin Gengming originally only wanted to give 800 yuan, but he was lucky enough to see such a gold and bronze Bodhisattva statue in the hands of Jiang Fei, which opened his eyes, so he gave 1,000 yuan.
By the way, I can also save some friendship, which may be useful to Jiang Fei in the future.
After all, how can a person avoid getting sick in this life?
"Okay, then one thousand."
Jiang Fei nodded and did not bargain.
Lin Gengming glanced at his wife, Lin Huirou's mother.
Lin Huirou's mother is fifty years old, but she takes good care of herself and looks like she is more than thirty years old.
On the other hand, Lin Gengming is a bit old-fashioned, with wrinkles all over his face. He looks like he is in his sixties, but he is actually in his fifties.
Lin Huirou's mother knew this guy's temper, so she didn't say much and walked to the small room in the east room.
Turns out there is another cave?
Jiang Fei glanced at the rooms in the east room and smiled inwardly.
Soon, Lin Huirou's mother took out a thousand yuan, a thick wad of money.
Because the largest face value at this time is ten yuan, you can imagine that one thousand yuan is equivalent to one hundred ten yuan.
Jiang Fei felt that Lin Gengming and the Lin family were really weird.
In such a small place, there is such a hidden rich man.
There is no other family in Anzhen that can easily spend a thousand yuan, right?
"Uncle Lin, what happened today never happened."
After Jiang Fei took the money, he handed it to Xiao Tianliang and then said to Lin Gengming.
Lin Gengming discovered this detail, and Jiang Fei casually gave the money to others without any hesitation.
It shows that this kid is really a quickie.
"That's natural." Lin Gengming also nodded seriously. This matter must not be mentioned, it is all done secretly.
Jiang Fei glanced at the sky and saw that it was already pitch black.
"Uncle Lin, let's go."
"I'll come and visit you again when I have time."
"Or if I have something good, I'll come back to you."
Jiang Fei winked at the two of them, put the gold and bronze Bodhisattva statue back into the big box, then turned and left.
He doesn’t want the pocket watch either.
It can be regarded as an addition to the snuff bottle.
Lin Gengming didn't say much. After all, it was impossible for him to leave three people for dinner, let alone let them sleep at his home.
I have only one man in my family, and the remaining two are a daughter-in-law and a daughter, which is inconvenient.
Lin Huirou felt a little disappointed when she saw Jiang Fei was leaving but ignored her.
But she didn't know why she was disappointed.
Jiang Fei and the other three left, and the Lin family returned to normal tranquility.
Lin Gengming sat on a wicker chair, looked at the snuff bottle, then smiled with satisfaction, and sighed with regret and loss.
"Huirou, tell me, do you have a crush on Dean Jiang?"
When Lin Huirou's mother saw Lin Huirou wandering at the door, she guessed the woman's thoughts right away, so she asked with a smile.
Lin Huirou's face was startled, and then she blushed slightly and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? Who has fallen in love with him?"
"Don't I know what you are thinking, girl? Your thoughts are always written on your face."
"But this Jiang Fei is really good. Do you think he is the boss?"
Lin Huirou's mother asked Lin Gengming.
Lin Gengming nodded subconsciously: "Well, not bad, not bad."
Only then did he react and said with a straight face: "Too shrewd, this man is not a good match!"
"Daughter, you want to go to college and get ahead."
He spoke earnestly and looked at Lin Huirou with a look of expectation in his eyes.
Lin Huirou hummed and turned around to go back to the boudoir in the west room, feeling a little bored.
Seeing their daughter like this, the couple could only sigh.
