Ma Hua continued to stroll. When he reached the end of Pigeon Street, he saw a middle-aged man who had just opened a stall. His eyes lit up.
The middle-aged man was sitting on a stool. There were some old items placed in front of the stall.
Ma Hua didn't move forward directly. Instead, he observed from a distance.
The middle-aged man's stall was mostly filled with porcelain. From the patterns, it could be seen that most of the porcelain was from the Qing Dynasty.
Ma Hua was a little disappointed after looking through them. From his appraisal skills, he could tell that these items weren't worth much.
Suddenly, a simple copper furnace in the corner caught Ma Hua's attention.
That was the Ming Xuande Furnace!
Ma Hua was very excited, so he slowly leaned over and asked casually,""Big brother, how much is this copper furnace?”
Not long after the middle-aged man set up his stall, customers came to his door. Naturally, he hoped to facilitate the first business.
"Young man, you have good taste. This is an ancestral copper furnace. How about fifteen yuan?”
The middle-aged man probed. It was obvious that there was still room for bargaining.
In this day and age, fifteen yuan was not a small amount. His monthly salary was only 17.5 yuan.
If he wasn't a knowledgeable person, who would have the time to spend 15 yuan on such an old item that didn't have much use?
Ma Hua didn't answer. Instead, he squatted down, picked up the copper furnace, and looked at it carefully.
It was quite heavy, at least ten pounds.
Moreover, this copper furnace looked good. There were no bumps or cracks. It was naturally made of polished copper.
Ma Hua turned the copper furnace over. Sure enough, there was a note at the bottom. On it were written the words "Ming Dynasty Xuande Year System".
This was indeed an authentic piece!
Therefore, Ma Hua no longer intended to bargain with the stall owner.
"Fifteen yuan, I want it!"
Hearing Ma Hua's words, the stall owner was slightly stunned. He didn't even return the price.
In this era, anyone who could directly take out 15 yuan to buy an old item that was not very practical was definitely a rich man.
However, he didn't expect Ma Hua to be such a knowledgeable person. He could buy an item worth tens of millions in the future with just 15 yuan. Why would he bargain with the stall owner?
"Alright, take a look at what else you want. I'll give you a discount.”The stall owner smiled ingratiatingly.
Ma Hua scanned the stall again and shook his head.""I don't want anything else. If you have any good items in the future, contact me at any time. The price is negotiable and I can give you more benefits.”
"Sure, where can I find you in the future?”The stall owner hurriedly said.
"Third Rolling Mill, ask around about the back kitchen, Ma Hua. Everyone in the factory knows him.”
"Are you a chef?"
The stall owner was curious after hearing what Ma Hua had to say.
"What's wrong with Chef? Looking down on chefs?"
"You misunderstood. I just didn't expect a chef to like to fiddle with old things. After all, you guys are so busy.”The stall owner hurriedly explained.
"This is purely my personal hobby. If you go to the rolling mill to look for me in the future, you must not tell anyone about this.”Ma Hua warned.
Private transactions were not allowed now, so he had to be vigilant.
"I understand, I understand. This is what I do. How can I not understand this?”The stall owner understood and smiled.
"What's your name?"
" My surname is Chen, Chen Ping 'an. My ancestor was also a high-ranking official, but the younger generation did not live up to expectations. Sigh, it's hard to explain in a few words..." Chen Ping' an shook his head and sighed.
"Okay, remember to contact me directly if you have good items in the future. As long as the items are good, the price is not a problem!”Ma Hua instructed again.
"Alright, alright," replied Chen Ping 'an.”
Chen Ping 'an then wrapped the Xuande Furnace in an old newspaper and handed it to Ma Hua, who paid for it directly.
The first cooperation between the two of them was completed happily.
Ma Hua left Chen Ping 'an's stall with the egg and rooster in his left hand and the Xuande furnace in his right hand.
After leaving Pigeon City, Ma Hua walked into an alley. He removed the newspaper outside the Xuande Furnace and put it into his Backpack.
Seeing the Xuande Furnace enter his Backpack, Ma Hua felt much more at ease.
It was his first time going to Pigeon City to search for treasures, and he bought a Xuande furnace for fifteen yuan. The results were remarkable.
Ma Hua made up his mind to come to the pigeon market whenever he had nothing to do in the future. He would never let go of anything good.
Anyway, he had plenty of funds at the moment, so he could use them to invest.
Ma Hua then walked to the bus stop by the roadside and waited for the trolleybus to go home.
At this moment, Ma Hua realized that he also needed a bicycle. He was only thinking about his master, Silly Zhu.
In this day and age, other than public transportation, bicycles were the only means of transportation for ordinary people.
Even if there was a chance to get a small car in the future, it would be too high-profile and eye-catching.
At present, he preferred to keep a low profile.
……
Ma Hua had just walked to the door of his courtyard when he saw his sister-in-law, Liu Meiyu, washing vegetables.
Liu Meiyu saw her brother-in-law enter the courtyard. Not only was he weighing an egg, but he was also carrying a big rooster. She felt very strange.
His brother-in-law had been working as an apprentice in the kitchen of the canteen. His monthly salary was 17.5 yuan. When had he ever been so generous?
Moreover, his brother-in-law was timid and never dared to leave leftovers at home. Did the sun rise from the west today?
"Hey, Third Brother is back. What's the good news today? Why did you buy so many things?”
Liu Meiyu looked at the thing in Ma Hua's hand and was very envious.
"It's nothing. I just thought that everyone hasn't seen meat for a long time, so I bought it for everyone to eat. It just so happens that you're cooking, so I'll let Big Brother kill the chicken.”
Ma Hua handed the things in his hand to his sister-in-law.
When Liu Meiyu heard that, she quickly took the things and said,"Alright, I'll get your brother to kill the chicken and stew it. Later, you brothers and Dad will have a good drink.”
Ma Hua smiled but didn't say anything. Then, he walked towards the main room in the north.
His house was a small courtyard house. His parents lived in the main room in the north, while his eldest brother and second brother lived in the side rooms on both sides.
And when she got married in the future, she wouldn't have an extra house to live in. Her parents had been worried about this.
