Chapter 117

Andy looks at the comic book protected by transparent bags in his hand. He is really in a complicated mood.

After all, when he was a child in his previous life, he had just come into contact with this kind of comic book. At that time, the first comic book he read was the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, a set of 50 books. At that time, he had to rent one dime, one copy, and three dozen bone white spirits. At that time, there was no TV play about the journey to the West. The comic book was his favorite book.

Xiaorenshu is a kind of sentiment for those born in the 1980s. People born in the mid-1980s will also have an impression, but they didn't know how to cherish them at that time, and didn't care when they slowly disappeared in their own lives.

When these comic books show their value, they beat their chests, because at that time, they are likely to have value just in case of a comic book in their hands.

Andy looks at the comic book in the wooden box. He feels as if he is separated from the rest of the world. There is no Eastern Zhou Dynasty and journey to the West. There are at least 9 romance of the Three Kingdoms in a set of 60 volumes. There is no lack of one. Even the most difficult ones to collect are Zhuge Liang crossing Lushui, Huohuo Lianying and Liu Bei conquering Wu. Andy doesn't know what the grandfather of the stall owner is, but Andy really knows this set of comics. He also collected them when he knew they were worth money in his previous life. Unfortunately, he didn't stick to it because it took too much money and time.

This set of romance of the Three Kingdoms was gradually published by Shanghai People's fine arts publishing house from 1957 to 1961, respectively by Zhu Guangyu and so on. Well, Andy knew that one Zhu Guangyu and more than 30 painters drew it. In 2008, there were only five sets of complete sets of three countries with a quality of more than 9, which can be seen as precious.

There are 16 copies of a dream of Red Mansions. Although the value is only 1000 yuan, one of them is 350 yuan. The key is not how much it is worth, but its rarity.

There must have been many people who have read the railway guerrillas, the sound of the plain gun, the soldier Zhang GA and the JIMAOXIN in the comic book. If you like them, they can really sell money. Because a JIMAOXIN is worth 500000 yuan...

The story of the marsh in the wooden box is also a favorite in the collection field of the Chinese dynasty. However, this series of complete sets, except the romance of the Three Kingdoms, are not worth the set of rice paper version of the mountain changes in Andy's hands. Three volumes of the mountain changes were drawn by the famous painter he Youzhi. They were published in 1978, and some people once paid more than 80000 yuan to buy a set of 9.5-grade photos.

Andy sighed in his heart. If the old man who collected these comic books knew that his grandson had sold them as old books, would he be angry to survive.

As for letting Andy tell the stall owner the value of these things... Well, you think more about it. Andy is not the virgin. He's a bastard if he doesn't make money. Especially in the antique industry, his eyesight is fundamental. He can only think of himself as unlucky if he makes an eye. If he doesn't pick up something, he's better to die.

Andy closes the box, brings the stack of newspapers up to him, and asks, "how much do you charge for these two?"

Stephen looked at Andy a little tangled. He really didn't know the value. But looking at Andy's expression when he asked him just now, these comic books were still a little valuable. He began to say, "2000... After all, it's something my grandfather has treasured for a long time. I think it's worth a little... "

Andy has no expression on his face. He doesn't care about Stephen's voice. He takes a bunch of dollars out of his pants pocket, points out 2000 dollars and hands them to Stephen, who is already a little shocked. "These comic books are a bit of collection value. Although some of them are not worth money, they can be kept in such good condition and complete set. It's really not easy to find them. Your grandfather is A real collector, because it's not a price to measure, it's a feeling. "

Andy's words moved Stephen very much, and the beautiful Dao in his hand was very satisfied. Well, Andy's heart is not beautiful now, because the price of a set of romance of the Three Kingdoms... About $1 million.

Black, too black.

Of course, this price is the highest possible price in the auction of the Chinese Empire, but in the three countries of the 1950s, it can also be sold to at least 3 million RMB.

It's a big leak. Andy is so satisfied with today's harvest. Just when he wanted to wave Joseph to take it, he heard Stephen say, "Sir, I have something else here. Would you like to have a look?"

This time it's a small iron box. Andy is speechless. Open the iron box. There's a big pile in it... Telegram.

Andy carefully turned over one by one. Most of them are traditional characters. From 1911 to the Central Plains war, Zhang shaoyangui changed his position, and then to the bald Anti Japanese declaration, they were all included, which has great historical significance.

"How to say... It's worth it, it's a little bit. It's not too much to say it's wastepaper. Although it's a bit conventional to measure it with money, it's also the most intuitive. It's not worth money... " Andy puts those telegrams in the iron box, then covers them and hands them back to Stephen.

Stephen looked at Andy's face in a bit of doubt, and found that he didn't seem to lie and sighed. Sure enough, although his grandfather likes collecting, he only collects some cheap things. After all, it's not allowed economically."Sir, you can buy some money. I don't think many people will understand the value of these things here."

Andy pulls his hand back and pulls a hundred dollars out of his pants pocket. "It's not easy to collect these things. Your grandfather is a respectable man."

"Thank you. I think my grandfather would be happy to meet such a discerning buyer as you."

Looking at Stephen and looking at himself gratefully, Andy is so kind. This kid is so... It's so cute, silly cute.

"How much do you want for this plaque?" Andy asked suddenly before he left.

"You say this... My mother wanted to chop it up for firewood and put it in the fireplace. I'm not going to the flea market, so I'll bring it to see if I can sell it. After all, the Chinese characters on it should be very good

Andy looked at each other more and more said that he had no confidence. He was really sad for the old man who died. Couldn't he say what his collection was before he died?

Well, this broken plaque is not worth a lot of money, but Andy asked with hope. With this plaque, is there anything else valuable? After all, this is also the plaque of Qianlong Dynasty. Maybe when the old man collects this plaque, he will collect other antiques at the same time.

What Andy thought was beautiful. Unfortunately, there was nothing with the plaque. He looked at the booth again and found that most of the books and newspapers collected by the grandfather of the stall owner were books and newspapers of the Republic of China. Andy picked out several of them and spent another hundred dollars with the broken plaque.

Kenny and Joseph look at Andy's smiling face. They really don't understand the boss's purchase of these rags. In fact, there are good things in the flea market here. Unfortunately, Andy doesn't know how to identify treasure. Although he can't lose a lot of money even if he looks at it, Andy knows that he can't tell the true from the false, so he is honest It's silly to change what you know and pretend that you don't know what you have to collect.

This time, it's Joseph who pushes the trailer to send the rags back to the car. I can't always let Kenny go. The bodyguard is not a servant. It's friendship when someone helps you. It's their job to protect you. Doing chores is not included in the bodyguard's work. Fortunately, Andy and Joseph, Kenny get along well with each other for several months. There's nothing I don't want to do to help Andy. After all, it's really easy to protect Andy. Andy doesn't like to go to some messy bars or nightclubs. It's really a lot easier for their work.

Kenny is still far behind Andy. Andy is like a curious baby. He looks left and right. Of course, he is far away from some rags and other things, mainly looking at something with a long history.

When passing a stall, Andy is a little surprised to find that there are three Chinese people in suits. Why do they know that they are Chinese? Because the three of them are bargaining with the vendor for a painting.

The three seemed to be very dissatisfied with the price the vendor said, so Andy went to see it. It was a yellow landscape painting. Andy didn't understand it. He just listened to the meaning of these people. There was no clear chronology of the painting. At present, he can't see who wrote it. It's not easy to distinguish whether it was signed. The vendor, who is a Chinese American, seems to be an expert. He can't loosen his teeth, It's said that the painting was from the Qing Dynasty and flowed from the palace. It's a treasure. It costs 100000 dollars.

Andy was a little surprised that the three Chinese people seemed to come to Taobao in Los Angeles. After all, the Chinese Taobao army would go to various countries after 2008. The whole world would buy back the lost national treasure with free money, but he didn't expect to meet them now.

Andy can't help but see the light in front of him. These three people must be very knowledgeable. Otherwise, they won't be entangled with the stall owner for so long. I just don't know if it's a trust. Such a situation in China is bad. Andy is very entangled.

Along with the development of the incident, Andy determines that they are not liars. OK, the three people really took out money to buy the painting, but it's not 100000 dollars, but 50000 dollars. Andy really can't laugh or cry.

I don't know what age and the author's drawing axis were installed by three people with a cylinder. It seems that they are very careful. Andy can only watch. He has learned some common sense of the antique world from some books of the starting God. When other people talk about trading, they can't make a horizontal stick. Lao Mei doesn't understand it, but his soul is a Chinese.

Besides, what if it's fake? Fifty thousand is not money! Andy can only comfort himself.
