Chapter 110: Picking up bargains and collecting green wool materials
"You all only know how to blame us. What have we done wrong? From now on, you'd better be polite and respectful to us, otherwise we will sever the relationship between us as siblings."
After saying that, he hung up without waiting for Gu Qingyang to react.
After being yelled at by Gu Qing and having the call hung up, Gu Qingyang was so angry that he almost threw his phone.
This Gu Qing simply doesn't take him seriously.
Gu Qingyang was simply angry at Gu Qing's attitude, but he did not realize that he was wrong. No, it should be that he did not think he had done anything wrong.
Although they are brothers and sisters, they have no right to interfere in the affairs of Gu Man and Gu Qing. However, they feel superior because of their own success and take it for granted to give orders to their sisters.
When Gu Qingyang called again, the call was not answered.
* Gu Ning walked along the Antique Street with his jade pupils open, looking to see if he could find a bargain.
Many of the goods were the same ones that Gu Ning saw last week. Although there were new goods, they were very few and almost all of them were fake.
Of course, although almost all of them are fakes, it does not mean that there are no real ones.
Moreover, after his rebirth, Gu Ning's luck was generally extremely good.
Just then, when he was halfway there, Gu Ning saw an antique with aura, a wrinkled and dirty purple clay teapot.
Moreover, the pot is huge in size and looks ordinary in appearance, which makes people dislike it. If Gu Ning had not seen the aura on the purple clay pot and knew that it was a genuine product, he really would not like it.
Even so, the more I look at it, the more I feel it is amazing. The color of the pot is rich and deep, as bright and smooth as jade. The shape is simple and steady, and it is full of charm and style.
Gu Ning had not yet learned about antiques, so he could not tell the origin of the purple clay teapot, nor could he estimate its price.
But judging from the rich aura, this purple clay teapot is quite old and its price will not be too cheap.
"Boss, how much is this?" Gu Ning asked.
The boss took one look at the purple clay teapot, and there was an obvious flash of disgust in his eyes. The teapot was wrinkled, dirty, and huge in size. It was really ugly.
If he hadn't spent money to buy it back and would have suffered a loss if he lost it, he would have thrown it away long ago. It has completely affected the appearance of the entire stall.
The boss looked at Gu Ning's face and wanted to bid based on her interest in the purple clay teapot. If she was very interested, he could raise the price a little, and if she was not interested, he could lower the price.
Gu Ning already knew the details of this, so his expression did not show any joy, but rather a bit of hesitation. So, when the boss saw this, he knew that he could not cheat.
"Five hundred!" the boss shouted.
After bidding the price, the boss felt a little regretful, wondering if he had bid too high a price. He only spent fifty dollars to buy this thing.
"Okay!" Gu Ning directly took out five Mao Zedong notes and gave them to the boss. His straightforward look surprised the boss.
However, he was sure that this thing was fake, so he did not doubt Gu Ning's frankness at all and happily took the money.
After walking for a while, Gu Ning saw another object emitting a faint spiritual energy, which was a landscape painting called "People by the Pond".
In the painting, just a few strokes clearly reveal the leisurely and elegant life of people living in the south of the Yangtze River. Although there are no characters, people can really feel the warmth of life.
The willow trees on the picture are not painted with pen and ink, but are the most typical combination of Chinese and Western creative methods, using Bingxi color squeezed from a tube. Bingxi color when diluted with water is the color of gouache, while when diluted with oil it is the effect of oil painting.
The painting is signed by Wu Guanzhong.
Gu Ning knew that Wu Guanzhong was a famous contemporary painter, oil painter, and art educator, but he passed away a few years ago.
In her previous life, her father Tang Zhenhua owned an oil painting by Wu Guanzhong, "BJ Snow", which he bought for nearly four million yuan.
Therefore, this landscape painting of "People in the Pond" will also be worth several million, and will definitely not be lower than "BJ Snow".
Gu Ning bought this painting for one thousand yuan, because those sold on the street were considered to be fakes.
If the boss knew it was the real thing, he would have bought it and sold it to an expert, making a fortune.
When they were almost at the end of the antique street, Gu Ning picked up another bargain, a pink-glazed deer-head vase.
Gu Ning still didn’t know the origin and price of this pink-glazed deer head statue, but he bought it just because it had spiritual energy.
Gu Ning felt that she should buy some antique books to take a look. Even if she knew it was authentic, she would not be able to estimate the exact price without knowing its origin, and she would not know if she was being cheated.
Gu Ning spent 1,200 yuan on this pink-glazed deer head vase.
Zhou Zhenghong watched from the side with mixed emotions.
He didn't know whether the things Gu Ning bought were real. If they were not real, it didn't matter. It was only a few thousand dollars. To Gu Ning, this amount of money was nothing.
However, even if the money was just a small amount, he always felt that Gu Ning would not waste it recklessly and must have bought it because he liked these antiques.
If these antiques are real, then Gu Ning is truly amazing.
If you pick it up casually, you will find a bargain.
Although surprised and curious, Zhou Zhenghong had no intention of exploring or asking questions, because he knew that knowing things that he shouldn't know would do him no good.
All he needed to do was to know that Gu Ning had done him a favor and that he should be loyal to Gu Ning.
Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong came to the gambling stone street and still started from the first store.
Sure enough, most of them were new rough materials, and there were many more jadeite rough materials than last time. In the first store, Gu Ning found two top-quality ones, and four mid-to-high-quality ones, all ranging in size from apples to footballs.
There were a dozen or so medium and low-quality ones, but Gu Ning didn't take them. It wasn't because he disliked them, but because he didn't want to be too extreme.
Since there is no plan to disintegrate the stone here, no waste materials are mixed in.
There are seven pieces of raw material, most of them are small and few are big, so there are a total of fifty-six kilograms.
Gu Ning went into several more stores and got three or four or five or six high-quality and mid-to-high-quality jadeites in each store.
Gu Ning now has twenty-eight pieces of raw materials in his hands. Although most of them are small pieces, their value is not insignificant at all.
The total weight is 336 kilograms, and the value is conservatively estimated to be over 10 billion.
Three hundred and thirty-six pounds is already very heavy, and I could hardly put it down on the cart, and I had to push it hard.
With Zhou Zhenghong around, it was difficult for her to put it into the space.
Although the store can stock the goods, Gu Ning knows that there is jade among these rough materials, so he is not at ease.
So she had to take it to the car, and let Zhou Zhenghong watch it in the car while she went back to continue gambling on the stones.
This time, she wants to sell some of them to raise funds.
