Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps

After the red coral beads were disassembled, they were completely divided into two piles. The number of beads in the two piles was about the same.

Yuanni didn't say a word after she finished dismantling the chaozu, and quietly wiped her fingertips with her handkerchief.

I don’t know what was on the beads, but Yuanni’s white fingertips were stained with a lot of dirt.

Old Mrs. Geng frowned and asked Yuan Ni to come to her. She picked up her hand and smelled it. She couldn't help laughing angrily, "Old Jiang, we have been doing business for many years. You are cheating me with half-real and half-fake goods." I?"

The semi-old man named Lao Jiang was sweating profusely.

This string of red coral beads is not entirely real, nor is it entirely fake. Half of the beads are original and the other half are imitations of new coral that have been polished and aged.

What's stuck on Yuanni's fingers is the fake patina stuck on the imitation product.

In just a short time, Yuan Ni had separated the real beads from the imitations.

Everyone ran to look at the two piles of beads. The real ones and the fake ones were placed together, which was particularly conspicuous.

"Old Jiang, you are being dishonest. Do you want to break a string of beads into two strings and sell them?"

"I really didn't realize that you are this kind of person?"

The Geng family members expressed their blame.

In the past two years, the economic situation has become more and more relaxed, and the antique market has also become more active. Lao Jiang was tempted to take apart a string of real red coral beads and put them into two pieces with the fake ones.

This half-truth and half-falseness can be sold as two strings of genuine beads, making double the money.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yuanni got started, she took out all the fake beads.

"It's my fault, I had a bad idea." Lao Jiang said, lifting up the hem of his clothes, pocketing all the beads inside, turned around and left.

He has no shame in staying in the Geng family anymore.

Geng Meilan was also smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in her smile.

Yuan Ni is so scary, she is really discerning. Geng Meilan's little tricks became a joke in front of Yuan Ni. Instead of embarrassing Yuan Ni, she actually made her successful.

Mrs. Geng glared at Geng Meilan, then pulled Yuan Ni to her side, "You shameless old man, you are all obsessed with money, and you are blinded by lard."

Yuanni just smiled faintly and didn't make much comment.

"Forget about those people, Sister Hong, bring some tea and snacks, and add vegetables for lunch." Mr. Geng ordered Sister Hong.

Sister Hong is called a relative, but is actually a domestic helper. In order to deceive others, she usually calls Mr. Geng eldest brother.

Seeing Sister Hong agreeing and leaving, Mr. Geng smiled and asked Comrade Wang, "Xiao Wang, why do you have time to come here?"

Comrade Wang told us about the mural, "I wanted to apply for a heritage site and asked Yuanni and I to come over and write down the story."

These were all official matters. Mr. Geng and Mrs. Geng did not comment much. They focused on Yuan Ni, "How will your mother be after we leave?"

"Teacher Liu's family is a quagmire. My mother only wants to live with Teacher Liu, so she must be entangled." Yuanni said lightly.

Old Man Geng and Old Mrs. Geng looked at each other, each seeing disappointment in the other's eyes. As good as Yuanni was, her mother was just as bad.

Now that Yuan Niniang is being dragged down by the Liu family, she doesn't have time to trouble her mother's family anymore.

Whenever she had time, she would do some handiwork part-time to earn money to support Liu Jia. The rest of the time she would help Mrs. Liu and Teacher Liu wash and wash.

The Liu family's mess is all repaired by Yuen Niang alone.

Geng Meilan felt a little better after hearing that Yuan Niniang was having a miserable life.

Old man Geng and old lady Geng were heartbroken. It wasn't that they didn't help the child, but that the child was lumpy and muddy and couldn't hold up the wall.

Sister Hong quickly brought over snacks, which were freshly made taro cakes and lotus cakes.

Mrs. Geng asked someone to open the box of snacks brought by Yuan Ni. "The snacks made in the old pastry shop are too sweet and greasy. Only Shaqima is tasty enough. The more you chew, the sweeter it becomes."

Geng Meilan deliberately found trouble, "I see Nier also brought a package. I wonder what's inside?"

Yuan Ni took the package, opened it in front of the big guy, and took out the four things inside, "This is my collection. I wonder if I can sell it for a good price here?"

Mr. Geng and Mrs. Geng are both good at discerning goods. After appreciating it, they pointed at the blue and white porcelain teapot and said, "This is from the Qingguan kiln. It is of limited age and can only be sold for a few hundred dollars."

Yuan Ni knew in her heart that she had inherited the blue and white porcelain teapot from Lao Yuan's house. Due to Yuan Ni's stubbornness, she couldn't keep this thing in her hands, so it would be better to get it out as early as possible.

Mrs. Geng also commented on the Kesi cloak, "This can be sold at a high price, but it is not easy to preserve. If there is a suitable buyer, I will sell it as soon as possible."

The most valuable one is the Tang jade vase, followed by the white peony vase.

Geng Meilan rolled her eyes and said, "Lao Wan's family has always wanted to receive a jade bottle, why not show it to them?"

Lao Wan's family is Geng Meilan's son-in-law's family. This family even contributes their son and relies on scraps from the Geng family.

Mrs. Geng's face sank, "What are you doing for them? Are you asking them to write a blank note to keep the account? You can't even see the money. Aren't you cheating one of your own people?"

Geng Meilan bit her lip, feeling a little shameless. Wan Jia was incompetent, but she couldn't say that in front of her face, right?

Mr. Geng thought for a while, "Go to the Overseas Chinese Hotel and ask Manager Fang to find some buyers."

Mrs. Geng nodded, "Go and make a call now."

The Overseas Chinese Hotel is full of overseas Chinese and foreign guests, and these people have a lot of real money in their pockets.

Old Man Geng made a phone call and received a reply in less than half an hour, "Manager Fang said he had planned a game and asked us to bring our things."

Manager Fang is a relative of the Geng family at the Overseas Chinese Hotel. Whenever a customer wants to buy antiques, Manager Fang will bring them to the Geng family.

Old man Geng and old lady Geng have good goods in their hands, and they are also looking for manager Fang. The two parties are mutually beneficial and have been cooperating for some time.

Geng Meilan wanted to go, but Mrs. Geng stopped her. She invited Comrade Wang, "Mei Lan will stay at home and keep an eye on it. Can Xiao Wang follow along to see the excitement?"

Geng Meilan's little thoughts couldn't be hidden in front of Mrs. Geng. Knowing that Geng Meilan wanted to embarrass Yuanni, Mrs. Geng would not lead her to cause trouble.

Comrade Wang was very happy, "Okay, I can also feast my eyes on it."

Comrade Wang is an official and rarely participates in such high-end private transactions.

Old Man Geng and Mrs. Geng led the big guys out, called the familiar Mr. Baner, and went straight to the Overseas Chinese Hotel.

In a tea room of the Overseas Chinese Hotel, a room full of people was already sitting around, including the old overseas Chinese father and daughter who had dealt with Yuan Ni before.

At this moment, everyone was concentrating on a large white porcelain bottle placed in the center.

Manager Fang's smile was unusually honest, "This is Yongle white porcelain, a rare and rare commodity. Everyone, take a closer look, don't miss it..."
