"Second Uncle, stop fooling around. If I had that ability, why would I still be guarding this zoo…"
Li Yi rolled his eyes at his second uncle. How dare he fight back? He was from the history department, not the archeology department!
Even in the archaeology department, there weren't many people who could actually fight in reverse. Did they really think that fighting in reverse was a treat?
"That thing…"
"I dug it out from the mountain. It's on my mountain. Don't tell anyone. Otherwise, if a silk banner is sent over, I won't be able to take it!”
Li Yi said directly. Second Uncle suddenly understood. Then, Li Yi took out a plate from his bag!
Second Uncle was ignorant and incompetent. He had never been serious in school. Compared to Third Uncle, who was a top student, Second Uncle only had a primary school diploma. However, it was undeniable that Second Uncle had become more eager to learn after starting a business. In the past few years, he had been learning literary and playful things. Although he was not an expert, he still had basic eyesight.
"Yo, this porcelain is old enough!"
"Please take a look!"
"Get lost!"
His second uncle scolded him with a smile and took out a pair of gloves. This was his nephew's possession, so he had to be careful!
After looking at it for a long time, Second Uncle finally confirmed it."Tang Baici?"
"Whoa, second uncle, your eyesight has improved in the past few years. You even know Tang Baici?”
Li Yi cried out in surprise. Second Uncle's face instantly darkened as he said in a bad mood,""In your eyes, is Second Uncle that ignorant and incompetent?”
"No, no, no…Compared to First Uncle and Third Uncle, you're not cut out for studying at all!”
“……”
His nephew's words were really heartbreaking!
However, it was understandable. Third Brother was a master's student and was originally going to study for a PhD. In the end, he helped Li Yi fight when he was young and was sent directly to the army. Although Eldest Brother did not have a master's degree, he also graduated from Fudan University. After he left school, under the guidance of his father-in-law, he took the civil service examination!
Yes, his father-in-law, Li Yi's aunt, was also an official. It was just that Li Yi was not familiar with her.
"Are you planning to sell it?"
"Yes, there are a few more like this. I want to ask Second Uncle to help me invite some people over and hold a small auction.”
"F * ck off, I'll use you!"
Second Uncle rolled his eyes at Li Yi in disdain. The so-called 3% and 2% was a rule of the intermediary industry. Generally speaking, once the transaction was completed, the seller had to give the intermediary 3% and the buyer had to give 2% for a total of 5%!
"Hehe…"
Li Yi didn't try to be pretentious and directly stated his intentions. This was actually a small-scale black market auction. After all, this item couldn't be seen in the light. Li Yi's item was obviously an old item and had never been played with. The biggest flaw was that it didn't have any glaze. Therefore, if he wanted to sell it, it was really hard to say. He could only sell it as black goods!
"Alright, leave the things with me. I have to get someone to take a look. How many are there?”
"There are three sets in total. Two sets of cutlery, one set of porcelain, one set of wood, and one set of wine!”
"There's still wine? Bronze?"
"Hmm…"
Second Uncle frowned!
"It's not easy to get this bronze one now!”
"I won't sell the bronze for now. I'll give it to Grandpa during the New Year.”
Li Yi said calmly. Second Uncle rolled his eyes."Do you think the old man is a fool? If you give him a bronze wine set and let him drink beer, do you believe that he will have a heart attack?”
Alright then…
"Then I'll keep it for myself. Help me give these away first!”
Li Yi passed the backpack to his second uncle, who almost sprained his back when he received it.""What's that? It's so heavy. Did you bring the bronze ware?”
"Open it and take a look!" Li Yi smiled, ready to see his second uncle make a fool of himself!
Sure enough, when Second Uncle opened the backpack, he was shocked. There were a total of 30 pounds of gold bars inside!
"Hiss, there's such a thing?"
"Yes, can I exchange it for money?"
"Ancient?"
"We dug it out together!"
Second Uncle was starting to get a headache. In ancient times, gold bars rarely appeared. The ones kept in the treasury were usually gold ingots, and the ones given to others were gold ingots. However, the gold bars in Li Yi's hands were standard gold bars!
250 grams each, five taels of small yellow croakers, half a backpack, gave second uncle a headache.
This thing was not easy to get!
Now that the country had started to tighten the gold market, most of the gold needed to be traded from official sources. Li Yi's gold was the most difficult to trade. Although gold was a precious metal, and there were many people who bought gold on the market, they did not have such a big appetite to eat so much.
"Thirty catties?"
"Yes, can it be distributed?"
"Of course, but we have to do it in batches. If we take out too much at once, it will attract attention!”
Gold was different from other things. Antiques could be said to be picked up by luck, but gold could not. This was a hard currency in any dynasty. The key was that money moved people's hearts!
A million gold bars in front of you would definitely not be able to move you!
Chinese people, or rather, humans, had an instinctive pursuit of gold. This was ingrained in their bones, including Westerners.
"Alright, then I'll throw them all to you!”
"Are we going back?"
"Yes, someone has been causing trouble recently. Many people have left the garden and are extremely busy. Hurry up and help me deal with it. Otherwise, I'll go to your house and bully your grandson!”
"Get lost. Doesn't my grandson have to call you uncle too?”
Second Uncle waved his hand and told Li Yi to scram!
Out of the few uncles, Second Uncle was the most unreasonable, and Second Cousin was also the most unreasonable. However, Second Cousin got married the earliest and had children the earliest. Now, Li Yi's nephew was already more than a year old and had already begun to recognize people.
After leaving the teahouse, Li Yi heaved a sigh of relief. With his uncle's help, he would be able to exchange for capital!
Then, when he returned next time, Li Yi planned to bring more things and set up a shop.
A jewelry shop could bring all the gold and silver from the Great Tang to the modern world and then directly process them into gold and silver jewelry. With a shop as a cover, Li Yi's movements would be much less restricted!
Of course, there was also jade. Lantian jade was a treasure!
Especially in the modern era, good quality Lantian jade had completely disappeared!
However, Li Yi did not dare to take out the top-grade Lantian jade directly, even though he already had it in his hands!
After returning to the zoo, Li Yi joined the army of animal caretakers. He called for a cart full of watermelons. The hippopotamus ate three of them in one bite. After that, he happily returned to the pool and continued to lie down.
A large amount of energy gathered over, and soon, it exceeded three times. However, things were still not settled on his uncle's side. Li Yi was worried about it, so he decided not to go back. In the end, after taking care of the animals every day, Li Yi stored up energy five times, and the jade suddenly changed!
