Li Bowen didn’t mince words either.
He said directly: "I have a little hobby, I just like those old things. I just heard from Sister Xueru that you may have some, but I don't know if you are willing to sell them!"
After listening, Mr. Pian'er had a wry smile on his face: "If you had said this two years earlier, I would have left one or two for you, but now there are not even one." No more, as you know, life has been difficult in the past two years, and our family has a large population, so we have already exchanged it for food."
Li Bowen looked disappointed: "It's really not even a thing. "Nothing left?"
"There is still an Eight Immortals table and a few official hat chairs at home. They are quite old. If you like them, take a look. There are really no others!" Think about it.
There was also furniture, which immediately aroused Li Bowen's interest: "Then let's go take a look?"
"Now?"
Li Bowen nodded: " I'm going to the countryside in the next two days, and it will take more than a week to come back. Let's go as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's go!" Drain the wine and stand up.
Li Bowen also stood up, and then looked at Chen Xueru: "Sister Xueru, let's go together!" This woman really wouldn't raise her butt unless she was invited.
Without saying hello to anyone else, the three of them walked out of the tavern directly. They turned around an alley and found Master Pian'er's home. The people who came to the tavern to drink were not far away. It was too far. Who travels several miles just to have a drink?
After leading the two of them into the house, several children from Mr. Pian'er's family were sitting around the table doing homework.
"Go, go, go, you guys go to that room to write, and you don't know how to call someone when they come!" Mr. Pian'er drove the children away directly, and then said to Li Bowen: "That's it. Take a look at this table and these chairs. ”
The table and four chairs are a perfect set. They are all painted with thick wood paint, and you can’t tell what they are made of. , there are a lot of scratches on the desktop, probably caused by children doing homework or when using it.
It looks old, but I don’t know whether it is Ming or Qing. Li Bowen doesn’t understand this either, but he knows that Ming and Qing furniture will still be quite valuable in later generations.
"It looks pretty good. Is this the set? Are there any matching kang tables, cabinets, etc.? If I can just get a set together, I can put it in my house!" ”
“Don’t tell me, we also have a kang table and bed cabinet, which are similar to this one. If you think it’s good, just make an offer!”
If you don’t want to put it up, bring it over! Master Pian'er didn't know whether it was used or not, but he knew that it was an old thing. Li Bowen had said before that he liked these things. For a collector like this, the things that catch his eye must be good things that are worth a lot of money.
After thinking about the savings in my hand, I still have more than 800.The price was high, but I couldn't pay too much at once, so I figured out the price myself: "Master Pian'er, you and Sister Xueru are acquaintances, so I won't give you random quotes. The style of your set of furniture should be clear. It’s late, and it’s not worth much. So, I’ll give you three hundred, and I’ll take the kang table and bed cabinet at once. What do you think?”

It was said to be from the late Qing Dynasty. In fact, Li Bowen didn’t know it at all. He just pretended to read it. It was all nonsense. This was to lower his expectations. From the late Qing Dynasty to the present, it was only a few decades. , no matter how good it is, it’s not worth too much!
Buying and selling is a process of bargaining. When I heard that my furniture could be sold for 300 yuan, my eyes lit up at first, and then my heart started to move, and I wanted more. This is Everyone has a normal mentality. He said a little embarrassedly: "I won't hide it from you. This furniture has been in my grandfather's house since he was a child. It's over a hundred years old anyway. It's an old thing. Now I'm making a set." New furniture costs dozens of dollars, which is really too little for you."
Li Bowen also looked embarrassed: "Master Pian'er is really a lot, even if this furniture is a hundred years old. , it’s also a modern one, it’s not government-made, and it’s really not worth much. If it’s more, I might as well buy some good wood to make a new one!”
You two! I was haggling over the price word for word, and no one wanted to let go. Li Bowen also hesitated whether to fill in some, but he was afraid that he would fill it out as soon as he started filling it up, so he bit tight and waited to see if Chen Xueru would do it. If you want to help me, I believe she will definitely say this.
As expected, Chen Xueru, who had watched the two chattering for a long time, spoke up: "Okay, okay, you two grown men are fighting over such a small amount of money. I have the final say. You give me the blog post." Master Pian'er, can you add 50 more?"
"Okay, since you asked, let's take this for 350 yuan, and you can take the things away!"
My son was satisfied.
Isn’t this enough? Li Bowen nodded in agreement, took out his wallet from his pocket, took out all the money in it, counted 52 yuan and 80 cents, and counted out 50. To Mr. Pian'er: "Okay, I'll give you a deposit of 50 yuan first. I'll come to pull the furniture tomorrow morning and pay you the balance!"
"Thank you!" Mr. Pian'er took it with both hands. I counted the money carefully and wrote a receipt. It was finalized.
Coming out of the house, Li Bowen glanced around the yard again and praised: "Your yard is really good!"
"The remaining shadow of our ancestors is now only I’m leaving this house!” Mr. Pian’er sighed beside him.
Li Bowen nodded: "It's hard to find such a good yard now. If I have the opportunity, I have to buy one! It's so comfortable to live here!"
That's right. Enough to guarantee that he will sell this yard in the futureAt that time, I just thought of myself. Now that Mr. Pian'er has 350 yuan, he should be able to support him for a while, but I don't know if he will go to the Northeast again to collect food. If he goes, there will be no time to sell this yard. Far away.
After they came out, they did not go back to the tavern, but went straight back to the silk shop. They took Chen Xueru back to her home by bike. After refusing the request to sit at her home, Li Bowen ran away. , leaving Chen Xueru with a series of laughter.
When I got home, I first took out 500 yuan from my piggy bank, put it in my wallet, and put the rest directly into the space. I thought it would be the same wherever I put it, so there was no need for anything. They all exist in space. If the space disappears one day, wouldn't you suffer heavy losses?
But now it seems that I still have to put a little more money on my body, otherwise I won’t have the money to buy something suitable when I see it.
He left another note for Wu Lei, asking him to clear the place so that he could receive the furniture tomorrow.
The next day, Li Bowen went out early and ran to the door of Pian'erye's house to wait. When he opened the door, he went in to pay the balance, moved the furniture out and loaded it into the car, and left the alley. , found a place where no one was, and put the furniture in one by one.
On the other end, Wu Lei got sick again. Looking at the furniture that kept popping up, he kept shouting excitedly: "Fuck, fuck, Brother Li is so powerful!"
