This phonograph is in very good condition, and the most rare thing is that it has been preserved until now. Baidu search to force literature network;

Such a phonograph, as long as it can be brought back to China, it must be the target of those domestic collectors who are eager to pursue it.

Now, if you can get $5,000 back home, you can get at least $50,000 back when you change hands. This is a very good deal.

I ordered 5,000 yuan on the spot and handed it over to the old black man. Evan happily said that he would help him load the car. After all, with Jin Muchen's current strength, although Jin Muchen's current strength, although one person can take it, it is inevitably too shocking. .

However, just when Jin Muchen was going to put the gramophone on the cart with Evan, another gramophone suddenly placed behind the gramophone caught his attention.

This phonograph is much smaller than his own.

His Victor gramophone has a high energy of more than one meter, and this phonograph is only more than 30 centimeters high, and there is a beautiful gilt copper horn on it, and there are carvings on the rim of the horn.

It seems that the shape is exactly the kind of big trumpet-shaped phonograph that was popular in the 1920s and 1930s, but the quality of this phonograph is not as good as his.

It is not that there are many traces of bumps, but it is covered with dust. It seems that it has not been used for a long time. I don't know if it can still make a sound. It may be that the previous owner did not pay much attention to the maintenance of this phonograph. .

The most important thing is that he can see a yellow light that seems to leap out from the gap of the box of the phonograph.

Jin Muchen felt very strange about the origin of these repeated rays of light. It shouldn't be like the machine would emit light, but the things inside the machine were shining.

So what's hidden inside this gramophone?

He became more and more curious, and then stopped. Evan saw that Jin Muchen was not in a hurry to leave, so he was not busy loading the car. Instead, he stopped and followed his line of sight.

Immediately saw the machine, and then introduced to Jin Muchen with a smile: "This phonograph was when I went to Miami last month. I just got it, but the maintenance is not very good, and some things inside are broken. , can't make a sound, I haven't had time to fix it. What? Mr. King. Are you interested in this phonograph?"

Jin Muchen nodded: "Well, can Evan introduce this phonograph to me?"

"Haha, no problem, this phonograph is a commemorative phonograph launched by the American Columbia company in 1936 for the 11th Berlin Olympics. It produced less than 300 units in that year, and it is rare in the market now. You Looking at the receiver of the machine, the Olympic rings representing peace are still engraved, and here, you can see that this is the carving of the Brandenburg Gate, which represents Berlin. Such phonographs are now on the market, but Very popular. To be honest, it may not be as good as the Victor phonograph in terms of playback quality, but because it has a very special historical significance, the price of this phonograph is higher. This phonograph is not his previous owner. Poor maintenance has caused the parts to be damaged, and it is impossible for me to get it now, but during this time, I have collected all the repaired parts. As long as the past few days, when I have time, I plan to start Get your hands on this phonograph. Once it's fixed, the phonograph will be worth a lot more."

Evan pointed to the phonograph and introduced it to Jin Muchen, who nodded while listening.

Evan wasn't lying, this gramophone. It should be the commemorative model of the Olympic Games launched by the Columbia company that year, and it is precisely because of its historical background that this gramophone has an extraordinary historical significance.

And such phonographs are often the most sought-after products in this circle, but I didn't expect to encounter them today.

A total of less than 300 units were produced that year, and it has spread to the present. Maybe it should be even rarer, maybe this one is an orphan!

The phonograph began to spread during World War I and became famous all over the world, and during the period from World War I to World War II, it developed to the peak of craftsmanship.

After World War II, because of the emergence of cassette machines, it began to decline.

Therefore, the phonographs during this period are often the favorite collections of collectors, not to mention this phonograph with special historical significance.

And after 1936, because of World War II, the Olympic Games were also suspended for two sessions. I am afraid that since then, there will be no such commemorative phonographs.

In this way, the historical significance represented by this phonograph is even more distinctive. Maybe it is the only commemorative phonograph in the world specially launched for the Olympic Games, not to mention his receiver. There are also things that emit an inexplicable yellow light.

Thinking of this, Jin Muchen had already made up his mind.

"Evan, how much is your gramophone?"

"But it hasn't been repaired yet?"

At this time, the eyes of the black old man, Evan, were full of cunning light. He asked this to test Jin Muchen's determination to this phonograph.

If he really wants to buy it, then Evan definitely doesn't mind slaughtering Jin Muchen.

"It's okay, didn't you say that you have already collected all the parts, you can give me the parts too, and I'll go home and fix it myself."

Jin Muchen didn't even look at Evan, his eyes still focused on the phonograph and said, but Evan's heart jumped wildly when he heard such an answer, and he finally took a deep breath to calm down.

"Mr. Jin, although this gramophone is not as good as the previous Victor gramophone, I told you before that it is an Olympic commemorative gramophone and the only Olympic commemorative edition in the world. Phonograph. There are very few in existence now, so although it is in a damaged state, the price will still be higher than the previous Victor phonograph, even a lot higher.”

Jin Muchen waved his hand casually, no matter how high he can go? Could it be higher than those precious jewels that Lao Tzu collected from Darren?

"Well, since you are so sincere, Mr. Jin, then I can't help but give up my love. Well, it's $20,000."

Evan tremblingly quoted a price, which was the most expensive thing he had asked for since he set up the stall. Whether it can be sold or not depends on the young man in front of him.

Jin Muchen turned his head and glanced at Evan, Evan felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, but soon the smile on Jin Muchen's face made him feel relieved.

Two big hands with different skin colors clasped tightly: "Deal!"

20,000 yuan was given to Evan, and Evan hurriedly helped Jin Muchen install the two phonographs into the rear bucket of the F150 they drove, and then fixed them.

Fortunately, they are driving a pickup truck, and the space in the back is definitely not a problem.

After harvesting two phonographs, Jin Muchen didn't have the heart to continue shopping here, so he took Candace back to his store directly.

Uncle Fang was a little surprised when he saw that the two of them came back so quickly, and they also pulled back such two large items.

However, when he and Jin Muchen moved the two phonographs back to the store, and looked at the Victor phonograph, Fang Bo was also interested.

"I didn't expect you to go out and get back these two big guys. This one looks pretty good. Let's see, it's still a Victor brand, haha, it's good, I happen to have it. A friend likes things the most, I'll call him to have a look when the time comes. Hey, you'll wait..."

Fang Bo and Jin Muchen stood in front of the gramophone together, admiring the big guy, and said, suddenly thought of something, and then trotted all the way upstairs, and quickly took out a stack of vinyl records from upstairs.

Then I went to the phonograph, cranked the handle with my hand, charged the battery, took out a vinyl record, and put it on the turntable. . .

"Night on @sea, night on @sea, you are a city that never sleeps..."

A melodious piece of music played from the speakers of the gramophone. Hearing this old Shanghai @Shanghai song from the 1920s and 1930s, Jin Muchen was also taken aback. Unexpectedly, Uncle Fang still had such a record in his hand.

"Haha, I've been collecting this record for many years, and I'm worried that I don't have a machine to play it..."

Fang Bo smiled and stood in front of the machine, looking at the Victor phonograph, as if he was a child who got a new toy.

Candace listened downstairs for a while, and there was no business anyway, so he went upstairs to prepare lunch~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Jin Muchen went straight to his studio with a tie and a Columbia gramophone.

The phonograph was broken, but Evan handed him all the parts that needed to be replaced, and before they left, he deliberately opened the receiver to tell him where to replace and where to maintain.

Jin Muchen planned to go upstairs and take apart the gramophone to take a look. The most important thing was to find out where that ray of yellow light came from.

When Evan opened the receiver before, he didn't see anything.

He has a study room on the fourth floor, but after he and Candace moved to the sun room on the fifth floor, it was directly converted into a studio by him.

It's really hard for that Evan. I don't know where he got these brass parts. It is estimated that they were dismantled from other dilapidated phonograph factories. Jin Muchen looked at the parts in his hand, and then opened the phonograph with 's casing.

He first carefully checked the damaged part that Evan told him, but he did not rush to repair it, but began to look around inside the receiver. (To be continued.)
