There's a garbage bin in my head

Chapter 20 The Impatient Buyer
"Then I can remember."

After confirming that Luo Jiu really planned to sell, Liu Tao took out his mobile phone, took photos of all three stamps, and sent them directly via WeChat.

"The person I just looked for is called Liu Zhongfu. He is the first person I met in the antique market. He is also an antique collector with a wide range of hobbies, and he is super enthusiastic about collecting stamps.

The family is not short of money. He owns a whole row of shops on Wuyi Street, the busiest street in the provincial capital, and he opens a small antique shop in the antique market.

After the auction ended last year, Lao Liu told me several times that he regretted missing that auction, otherwise he would have taken a picture no matter what.Now that I see these stamps of yours, if you don’t believe him, he won’t be tempted. "

Putting away his phone, Liu Tao explained to Luo Jiu.

After a while, Liu Tao also calmed down from the shock of discovering Mei Lanfang's miniature sheet, pointed to the stamps in the album and said to Luo Jiu... "Actually, there are quite a few more valuable stamps in the stamps at the back, but It can't be compared with these three pieces. A set of works by Zheng Banqiao like this should be sold for about 3000 yuan.
There is also this T28M galloping horse miniature sheet, although it has been used and has a postmark on it, but because it is well preserved, the value should be around 5000 yuan. "

In fact, after excluding the three very expensive stamps, the other stamps are actually worth a lot of money. Liu Tao picked up the more valuable stamps and explained them to Luo Jiu. Luo Jiu silently considered the prices in his heart. Add it all up, and soon the sum of hundreds and thousands of dollars will exceed 2 yuan.

Speaking of which, most of these stamps have a face value of a few cents, but they are relatively old. The three Mei Lanfang stamps were issued in 62, and the galloping horse stamp was also issued in Shanghai. 70s.

After 2000, there are no valuable things. The highest one is a miniature sheet of "Huangguoshu Waterfall", which is only worth about 100 yuan.

Luo Jiu and Liu Tao, who had just had a big meal, were not interested at all in such small fish and shrimps.

When Luo Jiu was about to count up to 3 yuan in her mind, Liu Tao's cell phone placed on the table vibrated violently.

Liu Tao took a look at his phone and said to Luo Jiu, "It's Lao Liu's call. He sent a video. He probably saw the photos I sent just now."

Hearing that the money sender was here, Luo Jiu immediately said: "Then pick it up quickly and see what he says and how much money he can give to buy these stamps."

As soon as the video was connected, an angry voice came out from the phone: "Xiao Taozi, who owns the stamp you sent me just now, and do you plan to sell it?"

"This stamp belongs to a friend of mine. I told you immediately because he planned to sell it. I didn't tell anyone else. If you didn't plan to ask for it, I'll find a few others guy."

Liu Tao pointed the camera at the stamp album, turned to the page where the three stamps were placed, and said to Liu Zhongfu: "It's not one stamp, there are three stamps in total, all of which are of the same quality, extremely high-quality and perfect."

Looking at the three identical stamps that appeared in the video, Liu Zhongfu said in shock: "Three, really three. Xiao Taozi, turn on the lights a little bit, and let me take a closer look."

After looking over and over again for several minutes, Liu Zhongfu finally let the camera leave the stamps with unsatisfied interest: "Where are you now, don't tell others about these stamps, everything will be discussed when I arrive, I will immediately I’ll go find you.”

Hearing that Liu Zhongfu is coming to look for him now, Liu Tao explained: "I'm in my hometown of Meixian, and the stamps belong to a classmate of mine. It's too late to come here now, and we live in the mountains, and the roads are not easy to walk. It’s too dangerous to drive at night.”

"In that case, let's arrange to meet during the day tomorrow. I'll call you when I get there. Remember to bring the stamps." After saying that, Liu Zhongfu hung up the video directly.

But when the video was over, Liu Zhongfu couldn't calm down at all.

Liu Renfu opened a shop selling antiques and art. In fact, the most important thing is that he likes these things that have the flavor of time, culture and art.

But to say that what Liu Zhongfu likes the most are those exquisite stamps issued in the last century, especially those commemorative stamps about cultural and artistic celebrities, and some commemorative stamps with special significance, which are Liu Zhongfu's favourites.

Liu Renfu has collected many commemorative stamps based on the works of artists such as Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong, and Zhang Daqian.However, Liu Renfu has been jealous of this "Ji 94M Mei Lanfang Stage Art (Small Sheet)" for a long time, but unfortunately he never had the chance to buy it.

It's not that there is no chance to buy this stamp, but for Liu Zhongfu who is a bit obsessive-compulsive, the stamps he has seen, not to mention the price, are mainly due to their poor quality. There are only three words: "What a pity", and I can't think of collecting them at all.

But the three stamps I saw today, from seeing the photos to seeing them with my own eyes in the video, Liu Zhongfu made up his mind in his heart, no matter what price he paid, he would buy those three stamps. A wish I have had for many years.

At this time, Lao Liu was unwilling to wait for even a minute, and wished he could see those stamps right away.But I also know that even if it is a full expressway from the provincial capital to Meixian, it will take two or three hours to get there, not to mention the mountainous areas below.

Although I don't know where the mountain Liu Tao mentioned is, but it is obviously not so easy to go to the place where he can say that driving at night is dangerous, so it is impossible to see those stamps tonight.

However, Liu Zhongfu still took out his mobile phone and started making calls: "Boss, arrange a driver for me, and come to Tianxin Pavilion to pick me up now."

Liu Zhongfu has two sons and two daughters under his knees, but the other children are developing in other places, only the eldest is staying with him, but Liu Zhongfu usually spends more time alone in Tianxing Pavilion, because the antique shop he opened is in nearby.

My son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren usually only come over on weekends.

The boss, who had just finished eating and was about to go out to socialize, suddenly received a call from his old man, but he was a little confused all of a sudden.

"Dad, what's wrong at this late hour? If anything happens, just ask us to come over to your place. What do you want the driver to do?"

Liu Zhongfu didn't explain much on the phone, and said directly: "I don't have any business with you, I want you to arrange a driver to take me to Meixian. It's not a big deal, so don't worry, just call the driver over."

The boss thought for a while and didn't directly reject the old man, but said: "Then why don't I go with you, I have a few friends in Mei County, it would be more convenient to ask them for help."

"It's not like I'm looking for trouble and want you to accompany me. Besides, I'm much more familiar with Meixian County than you are. Have you forgotten that I worked there for several years? Ask the driver to fill up the gas. I'll be there tonight We live in Meixian." The old man finished speaking angrily and hung up the phone directly.
