After resting for a while, Fan Quan took Lin Chaoyang back to his home.
Lin Chaoyang looked up at the roof that let in light, and then looked inside the house, which was completely bare.
Fan Quan felt a little embarrassed and quickly went to get his stamp album.
He really has a large collection of stamps, a thick book that is already full.
"I carefully selected these. Look at them. They are so beautiful!"
Looking at the book full of stamps, Fan Quan's heart was bleeding, but he really had no other choice.
Lin Chaoyang flipped through them casually. He couldn't understand them, so he just bought them all.
"You probably have more than three of them here. I'll give you one dollar. How about that?"
Because Fan Quan still owed him medical expenses, even though the amount was only a dozen yuan, it had to be included in the amount.
After deducting the medical expenses, Lin Chaoyang estimated the price to be about one dollar.
Because some stamps have a higher face value, while others are only worth a few dollars.
In Lin Chaoyang's eyes, these stamps have no current purchasing value and are simply calculated based on their face value.
But in Fan Quan's eyes, these are all his hard work. Just collecting so many stamps has taken more than a dollar of time and energy.
"Here, can you give me a little more? These add up to more than one piece."
Because Fan Quan did not buy all of his stamps from the post office, he also bought some from other collectors, so the actual cost was far more than one dollar.
Lin Chaoyang shook his head. "I calculated it based on the face value. These are worth this price. I don't think it's worth it if it's more."
Seeing that Lin Chaoyang really didn't seem to love stamps that much and had no interest in them, Fan Quan could only grit his teeth and agree.
Lin Chaoyang was straightforward. He took out a bag from his pocket, counted out ten ten-yuan bills, and handed them to Fan Quan.
After paying the money and receiving the stamps, Lin Chaoyang got the stamp album and prepared to leave.
Perhaps because Lin Chaoyang was generous with his hands, Fan Quan hesitated for a while, but finally spoke.
"Um, little brother, are you interested in calligraphy and antiques?"
Lin Chaoyang raised his eyebrows, "Do you still have these to sell?"
Fan Quan shook his head. "He's a friend of mine. All the calligraphy and antiques in his house were passed down from ancient times."
Lin Chaoyang was a little curious, "Why are you thinking of selling this family heirloom?"
Fan Quan sighed, "His son is sick, and he can't be cured in our county. He has to go to a big hospital in the provincial capital, and maybe even go to Shanghai."
"He is the only one in his family working in the furniture factory, and his salary is not enough to pay for his son's medical treatment, so he thought of selling the heirloom."
"I saw that you seemed willing to collect these, so I asked for him. If he could sell them, his son would be saved."
Lin Chaoyang thought about it and thought that if it was really a good family heirloom, maybe it could be sold at a high price in the future.
But he doesn't understand these things. What if he gets cheated?
Antique calligraphy and paintings are not like stamps, their prices will not be too low. How does he know whether these antique calligraphy and paintings are real or fake?
He was really unsure about this and wanted to refuse, but then he remembered that there was someone who might be able to identify it.
Professor Song is knowledgeable and experienced, maybe he can tell whether these things are real or fake?
"Otherwise, you can help me contact them. In the next two days, I'll take a look at the things. If I like them, I can buy them."
Fan Quan was very happy to hear this. "Okay, I'll go tell him right away. I'll ask him to bring his things to my house at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
Lin Chaoyang agreed. Anyway, he had time tomorrow, so he just wanted to invite Professor Song over.
After leaving Fan's family, Lin Chaoyang went to the hospital.
When Professor Song learned that he wanted to buy antique calligraphy and paintings, he was still a little confused.
But when Lin Chaoyang said that the man was selling antiques to treat his child's illness, Professor Song immediately understood.
He looked at Lin Chaoyang with even greater admiration and immediately agreed to help him look after things.
Lin Chaoyang thanked him and then returned to the coal mine dormitory.
Early the next morning, Lin Chaoyang went to the hospital, picked up Professor Song, and went to Fan's home together.
At Fan Quan's house, his friends were waiting for them early with some things.
As soon as they saw Lin Chaoyang arriving with his men, Fan Quan and his friends breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally met someone who was interested in antique calligraphy and paintings and was willing to spend money to buy them, and they were afraid that Lin Chaoyang would change his mind and not come.
"Little brother, this is my friend, Lin Hongji."
Lin Hongji nodded towards Lin Chaoyang and Professor Song, then opened the box on the table somewhat awkwardly.
"This is something passed down from my family, take a look."
Lin Chaoyang didn't understand this at all, so he asked Professor Song to help him make an assessment.
Lin Hongji was still a little embarrassed, but he still tried his best to introduce himself.
"These are really good things. My ancestors were officials, and these are all passed down from them."
"I heard that these jewels were bestowed by the emperor on my ancestors and have been passed down for many generations as heirlooms."
Professor Song nodded at Lin Chaoyang. He had seen them and they were absolutely good things.
But he didn't say much, he simply told Lin Chaoyang that these were real antiques.
Lin Chaoyang didn't think too much about it. Once he confirmed that it was a real thing, he could negotiate the price.
"Little brother, I'm not asking for too much. These things of mine, at a good time, could be exchanged for half a city."
Lin Hongji hardened his heart and pointed out a number, "It can't be any less."
Lin Chaoyang didn't have much savings, but he could still get some money.
He glanced at Professor Song and saw him nod. Without hesitation, he nodded in agreement.
Hearing that Lin Chaoyang was willing to buy these things together, Lin Hongji was a little overjoyed and his face turned red with excitement.
With this piece of gold, his son can be saved!
"I don't have that much money on me. Wait a minute, I'll go get some money."
This amount of money is not a small amount, and normal people would not carry it with them. Taking this into consideration, Lin Chaoyang made an extra trip.
In order to reassure Lin Hongji, Professor Song stayed with Fan's family and waited for Lin Chaoyang to come back.
Lin Chaoyang went for a walk and soon came back with 50 yuan.
Lin Hongji didn't know how to thank him and almost knelt down and kowtowed to him.
Lin Chaoyang quickly helped him up, comforted him with a few words, and then left with the box.
After the Fan family left, Professor Song spoke slowly while no one was around.
"Yoko, you made a lot of money this time."
Lin Chaoyang exclaimed, "What do you mean by making a lot of money?"
Professor Song pointed at the box with a smile, "The things in here are all rare and valuable things."
Lin Chaoyang was a little surprised, "Teacher Song, why didn't you say that just now?"
Professor Song still smiled and said, "If you say too much, I'm afraid he will ask for too much money and you can't afford it."
Lin Chaoyang couldn't help but laugh, "Teacher Song, I didn't expect you to know all this."
Professor Song smiled and shook his head. "I have lived for most of my life, how could I not understand this? But you have to keep these things well."
As he spoke, he became serious, "I don't know when these things will see the light of day again, but I believe that there will be such a day."
