The Money Sword is a very common item, but most of the Money Swords are made of the same kind of copper coins, and the copper coins used to make the Money Swords are mostly common and lower value copper coins.
For example, the Qing Dynasty's "Guangxu Tong Bao" small flat coins, "Tongzhi Tong Bao" regular script small flat coins, and "Qianlong Tong Bao" regular script small flat coins, these are ancient copper coins preserved in large numbers among the people. They are only worth one or two yuan now, so most of the copper coins used to make money swords are now made.
The cost of making a money sword with such copper coins, such as this one made of forty-nine copper coins, is no more than one hundred or eighty yuan. Adding other costs such as labor costs, it would only cost three or four hundred yuan to sell it.
And the price of this sword is high.
A copper coin with the inscription "Tai" in Manchu on the back of the Qianlong Tongbao coin can be sold for about 300 yuan now. This sword is made entirely of these ancient copper coins. The cost of the copper coins alone is close to 15,000 yuan...
Yang Jing said: "Boss, this sword is well made. Your craftsmanship is quite good."
Although Yang Jing held the sword in his hand, he did not ask for the price. There are rules in the antique business. Unless you really want the item, don't ask for the price easily, because as long as you ask for the price, it almost means that you have to buy the item. If you ask for the price, the boss also quotes a price but you don't buy it, then it is against the rules. If you meet a bad-tempered boss, he can kick you out.
The antique circle is also a small world. Since you are in this circle, you must always be careful not to violate the rules of this circle.
Although this sword was good and the body was made of Qianlong Tongbao with Manchu characters on the back, Yang Jing did not take it seriously.
The Golden Money Sword is a magical instrument, not a work of art, so the more expensive the copper coins used, the better it is. The best Golden Money Sword is made of different copper coins, even if the copper coins are not expensive, as long as it is made of different copper coins, it is more valuable than the same Golden Money Sword.
Especially if one could find 108 different emperors in Chinese history to cast copper coins to make the Money Sword, then the value of this Money Sword would be enormous.
There have been a total of 408 emperors in Chinese history. The Money Sword made from ancient bronze coins cast by any 108 emperors is the most powerful Qiankun Sword in the eyes of Taoist wizards, and it is also the most powerful magic weapon for suppressing Feng Shui.
Yang Jing originally wanted to buy a money sword to suppress feng shui, so why would he spend tens of thousands to buy such a money sword?
The boss naturally didn't know that Yang Jing didn't like the sword, so he smiled and said, "Sir, do you like this sword? If you like this sword, I can sell it to you at a lower price."
Yang Jing shook his head slightly, did not respond, and put down the sword directly.
The boss showed a slight disappointment on his face.
If this kind of money sword can be sold, it will at least make one or two times the profit. For example, if the Qianlong Tongbao copper coin with the Manchu inscription Baotai on the back of the sword is sold individually, it will only cost about 300 yuan. And if so many copper coins are sold one by one, how long will it take to sell them all?
But after it is made into a money sword, as long as one is sold, the income will be at least 40,000 to 50,000. Not only is the profit high, but a lot of copper coins can also be sold at one time.
It’s a pity that although the young man in front of him looks young, he seems to be an experienced person.
But the boss did not give up, and continued to ask: "Sir, what kind of money sword do you want?"
Yang Jing said: "I just want to buy a sword to suppress Feng Shui."
"For Feng Shui, I have good ones here too. Take a look at this sword. It's made of copper coins cast by thirty-six different emperors. It's the most suitable sword for protecting the house." The boss said, picking up a gold coin sword that was less than a foot long.
Yang Jing smiled and said, "Boss, don't bother you. I'll just take a look. If I like anything, I'll ask you."
The boss then remained silent and stood aside watching Yang Jing pick the items one by one with gloves on.
After selecting more than ten swords, Yang Jing still didn't feel satisfied with any of them, so he asked the boss: "Boss, did you make all these golden swords yourself?"
The boss shook his head and said, "Not all of them. Among these swords you see, more than ten are made by me, and the others are from outside. Look, there are some money swords under this shelf that I haven't sorted out yet. They are all bought from dealers."
Yang Jing looked down and found a pile of golden swords on the bottom layer of the antique display cabinet, but each one was badly rusted and could be seen to be in the shape of precious swords.
Yang Jing's heart moved slightly, he squatted down, and began to pick up the golden swords that were so rusted that their original appearance could not be recognized.
There are more than ten of these gold swords, which are indeed badly rusted. The copper coins are basically all covered with rust, making it difficult to identify their identity and age. Even the braided ropes have rotted away, and are only held together by the rust.
Such a money sword is very difficult to clean. And even if it is cleaned, it has to be remade, which is very troublesome. No wonder the boss has been ignoring it.
Yang Jing gently picked up a money sword, touched it with his left hand, and then directly activated the identification skill. It turned out that this money sword, which was so rusty that its original appearance could not be seen, was just an ordinary money sword.
Don't ask Yang Jing why he used the identification skill to identify these rusty money swords. Yang Jing himself didn't know why. He just acted based on his intuition. His intuition told him that it would be best to identify these rusty swords, so he did it.
It's strange to say, Yang Jing's intuition was very strong before, but since he was possessed by the holy ring, he felt that his natural intuition was getting stronger and stronger, as if the holy ring had a great bonus to his natural skills.
But Yang Jing himself couldn't explain why.
But no matter what the reason was, his intuition was strengthened, which was definitely a great thing for Yang Jing. Many times he relied on his intuition to use the identification skills of the holy ring, and he really picked up a lot of loopholes.
This time, when he saw these rusty money swords, his intuition strongly suggested that he use the identification skill.
Sure enough, after Yang Jing identified six rusty swords in succession, a double-layered gold coin sword less than two feet long immediately gave Yang Jing a surprise.
"The Qiankun Golden Coin Sword made of copper coins cast by the 108 emperors of China, 1573, Li Shizhen."
When the identification result came out, Yang Jing almost lost his grip on the sword in his hand. He never expected that there was a gold sword made by Li Shizhen, who was revered as the "Medicine Saint" by later generations!
This is a treasure, but Yang Jing put down the sword calmly and continued to pick up the next sword. As a result, this sword gave Yang Jing an even greater surprise than the previous sword...
