Chapter 635 Antique Value
Fubao asked Banxia to put the things on the table.
Fubao followed the method Jia Yanbing taught her and asked Banxia to prepare the tools.
After an hour of hard work, a beautiful double-handled moon-embracing bottle finally appeared in front of Fubao.
"Wow, Miss, I didn't expect that there was such a beautiful bottle hidden under this rusty thing. Although I don't know much about these things, this bottle looks very beautiful."
"Sister Banxia, Sister Baizhi, do you want to know how much silver this bottle is worth?"
The two of them nodded at the same time with their eyes shining, "Yes!"
"It's simple. You two take this bottle with you and let's go to Jubaozhai. The owner of Jubaozhai will definitely know the value of this bottle."
Banxia and Baizhi immediately took a bag, wrapped up the things, and took Fubao in a carriage to Jubaozhai.
It was still early and business at Jubaozhai was brisk today. There were several people inside looking at the bottles on the first floor.
The young man recognized Fubao as soon as he saw him. Last time, he suffered a loss at the hands of these people, so this time he had to be more careful.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Wan? What a rare guest."
"Well, I want to find your shopkeeper."
"The shopkeeper is counting the inventory upstairs. Miss Wan, please come upstairs."
Fubao was taken upstairs and found the shopkeeper in a calligraphy and painting room.
"Shopkeeper, Miss Wan is looking for you."
The shopkeeper looked back and saw that it was Fubao. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He didn't know what was going on. Ever since he was cheated by this little girl last time, he felt a little scared when he saw this little girl now.
"I don't know what brought Miss Wan to our shop. Please take a seat."
"Of course it's the wind of getting rich. I'm not here to buy anything today. I want the shopkeeper to help me take a look and see how much this thing of mine is worth."
Banxia put Fubao on a stool and sat him down, while Baizhi took the bag from behind and put it on the table.
The shopkeeper guessed the shape as soon as he saw it, and it should be a bottle or something like that.
Although the shopkeeper's character is not very good, his vision is still good. If he has the same knowledge as Jia Yanbing, it will not be a problem for him to get into Jubaozhai in the capital.
It's a pity that his knowledge is limited and his eyes are mortal, so Fubao still took advantage of the opportunity.
When Baizhi opened the bundle, the shopkeeper's eyes seemed to be glued to it and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
"Miss, where did you get this?"
The shopkeeper's face was full of excitement. This craftsmanship has now become extinct, and it is almost impossible to find antiques with such fine craftsmanship on the market.
He was also fortunate enough to have seen it once at his boss's house. This was the second time he had seen it, and this item was even better than the one he had seen at his boss's house.
"Don't worry about where I got it, just tell me how much it's worth."
Fubao stared at the shopkeeper's expression. From his expression, Fubao already had a rough idea. Even if the shopkeeper wanted to cheat him, it would be impossible. She initially estimated that this thing was definitely more valuable than the one she bought here a few days ago.
The shopkeeper looked at it carefully for a long time, treating it as a priceless treasure. He examined it in detail, and finally put it down reluctantly.
"This thing is worth at least this much." The shopkeeper held up two fingers and made the number eight.
"Eight thousand taels?"
"Yes, eight thousand taels, miss. Or you can sell it to me and I will give you nine thousand taels."
The shopkeeper was itching to get one, this thing was priceless, if he could get one, he would definitely get first place in the conference at the end of this year.
Fubao calculated in his mind that based on the character of this shopkeeper, the value of this bottle must be doubled.
What Fubao didn't know was that this thing could no longer be measured by money.
"No, I'm just here to ask for the price. But thank you anyway. If I need money later, I'll come to you."
Fubao was so happy at this moment, while Baizhi and Banxia who were standing by were also shocked. This small bottle was worth nine thousand taels of silver. Wouldn't their storehouse of the general's mansion be filled with a mountain of silver? No, there was also a mountain of gold. Oh my God, could this Miss Fubao be the reincarnation of the lucky star? She had only been in the general's mansion for less than half a month, and the general's mansion had escaped poverty and become a nouveau riche.
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper sighed and asked, "How could the general's sister be short of money?"
"Miss Wan, I'll add some more, will you sell it to me?"
"Ah? Can I add a little more? Didn't the shopkeeper tell the truth just now?"
Fubao tilted his head and looked at the shopkeeper, his eyes full of childish innocence, which made the shopkeeper feel a little embarrassed.
"Miss Wan, it's not that I didn't tell you the truth. Jubaozhai is also doing business. Don't we want to make some money?"
Fu Bao nodded as if he suddenly understood something. "Oh, so that's how it is? But I'm not planning to sell it. Thank you for helping me. I'll leave first."
Seeing that Fubao was determined, the shopkeeper knew there was no room for negotiation, so he had to go downstairs and send the man out.
After leaving Jubaozhai and getting on the carriage, Banxia and Baizhi exclaimed, "Miss, this bottle is so valuable! I feel like I am carrying 10,000 taels of silver on my back, it's so heavy."
Bai Zhi tightened the bag on her body again. The feeling was completely different from when she came here. She didn't know the value of this thing then, but now she knew, and she was afraid that she would bump into it.
"That shopkeeper didn't tell the truth. According to his personality, this bottle should be worth twice as much. It seems that big brother can get married in style, hehe."
Fubao was in a very good mood, so she lifted the curtain and looked out. Just then, a carriage passed by their carriage. The curtain on the opposite side was blown up by the wind. Fubao vaguely saw a familiar face. She thought about it for a moment and remembered that it was Liu Shiya.
"Sister Baizhi, please return this bottle to the General's Mansion first. I need to go out with Sister Banxia."
Bai Zhi nodded. This place was not far from the general's mansion, so she could just walk back.
"Miss, it's getting late. Where are we going?"
"Sister Banxia, ask the driver to turn around and catch up with that carriage. I think I saw Liu Shiya."
"Liu Shiya? Why does this name sound so familiar?" Banxia didn't remember this person, but seemed to have heard of her somewhere.
"She is Sister Shiyu's younger sister, the legitimate daughter of the second branch of the Liu family." Fubao reminded.
"Oh, it's her. Why are you following her, Miss?"
"I think something must have happened to her. She looked a little nervous just now, and it's already late, and she's still going out of the city. She must be up to no good. Let's follow her and see. I'm afraid she will harm Sister Shiyu again. This evil spirit." Fubao pouted angrily, standing up for Liu Shiyu.
The carriage had turned around and was following Liu Shiya's carriage not too far away. The driver was a retired soldier with an injured leg. Driving the carriage without having to walk was quite suitable for him, and when he was in the barracks, he was doing tracking, so this was a good way for the Almighty to make the best use of him by arranging him to drive the carriage.
Banxia now admired Fubao's sensitivity more and more. No wonder the general doted on his sister so much. The young lady was indeed not an ordinary silly lady. She was cute, smart, and had a chivalrous heart. Who wouldn't like her?
