Living like a salted fish in the end times

Chapter 352 Congressional Gold Medal
After completing the car purchase procedures, the group continued to wander around the flea market. As for the Bugatti sports car, the owner of the car dealership promised to deliver it to the door, that is to say, it would be shipped back to Huicheng in a container.

And it's free.

No matter how slow Yang Haoxuan's reaction was at this time, he knew that he had fallen into the other party's "sweet trap".

However, his attention was quickly attracted by the variety of stalls. Although the local market is also filled with a large number of overseas products, the variety is definitely not as rich and authentic as here.

Just like this humble little stall in front of you.

Yang Haoxuan carefully picked up a golden medal, and impatiently asked:

"Boss, is this Congressional Gold Medal real?"

The Federal Congress Gold Medal, issued by the Federal Congress, is listed as the highest civilian honor in the Federation along with the Consul Medal of Freedom.

Recipients need to make more efforts and contributions than ordinary people in non-military fields such as society, culture, art and economy of the Federation before they can receive the medal.

Generally include actors, writers, musicians, explorers, astronauts, lifeguards, scientists, athletes, and humanitarians.

The most special thing is that the pattern design of the Congressional Gold Medal is not fixed. Only after the bill is passed, the Federal Mint will design a unique pattern for each gold medal and cast it.

Since the founding of the Federation, only more than 1500 people have won the Congressional Gold Medal, and because of this, the medal has a very high collection value.

"I never sell fakes here."

The stall owner put on a coquettish look.

Yang Haoxuan couldn't confirm the truth for a while, so he could only cast his eyes on Chen Chuan who was at the side.

Chen Chuan took the medal and weighed it. The weight was right. It should be made of gold, but he also didn't know whether it was true or not. After all, the material price of gold was much lower than the actual value of the medal.

Fortunately, our company has an appraiser with good skills, so I took a photo on the spot and sent it to the other party through WeChat.

Yang Haoxuan tried to inquire about the price.

The stall owner raised four fingers: "The price is 50 yuan, no counter-offering."

"How can it be so cheap? I remember that the market price of the Congressional Gold Medal is basically more than one million, and the more famous it is, the higher the market price."

Yang Haoxuan instantly raised his vigilance.

This medal weighs about 20 grams, and the material alone is worth more than 50 yuan. yuan is a bit outrageous, and there must be something wrong with it.

The stall owner took the medal from Chen Chuan, put it on the stall, and explained casually:

"You can check the information on the Internet and you will understand that this medal belongs to the great director Connor. It has only been two years since he won the medal, but because of the 'MeToo' movement's notoriety, the value will naturally be greatly reduced."

"Connor? Director of Jurassic World?"

"Yes, it's him."

The stall owner nodded.

Yang Haoxuan immediately became interested. He liked this movie very much, and asked subconsciously: "Boss, how did you get this medal? Did Director Connor sell it to you?"

"No, Director Connor went to Europa more than ten years ago, and there was no news after he went there. I bought this medal last year from a scavenger." The stall owner explained.

Yang Haoxuan couldn't help picking up the medal again, the more he looked at it the more he liked it, so he tried to counter-offer: "Boss, can the price be lower?"

"Little brother, this is already the floor price."

The stall owner was not moved at all.

Chen Chuan helped to persuade: "Boss, the collection is in a downturn now, and everyone can't get enough to eat. How can they have the heart to collect? I advise you to sell it at a cheaper price, right?"

The stall owner didn't recognize him because he was wearing a mask.

"It's not cheap. If I can't sell it, I'd rather keep it myself." The stall owner didn't budge.

"How about 45 million?"

Chen Chuan cut off 5 yuan at once.

The stall owner shook his head again and again: "No, no, I have a lot of medals here, so why don't you choose others?"

After finishing speaking, he picked up another medal and introduced:

"This is the Federal Medal of Honor, 3 yuan each, 10 yuan three."

The Medal of Honor is the highest federal military award.

However, after the Civil War, due to the background of large-scale disarmament and the declining status and importance of soldiers, such military medals are far less influential than the Congressional Gold Medal.

Of course, the materials of the two are also different. The Medal of Honor is a gold-plated medal, which is also an important reason why it cannot be sold at a high price.

Yang Haoxuan's eyes suddenly turned black: "Boss, did you say something wrong? Why are three coins worth 1 yuan?"

"I'm not mistaken, three refers to the collection of three medals of sea, land and air."

"Then can't I make it up by myself?"

The stall owner shrugged: "Of course, but I only have Army and Navy medals here. I don't have Air Force medals. If I want Air Force medals, I can only buy suits."

"Aren't there any other stalls for the Air Force?"

Yang Haoxuan frowned.

"Hey, I can say responsibly that it's very difficult to buy individual Air Force medals, whether on the east coast, the west coast, or at home."

The stall owner said with confidence.

Yang Haoxuan understood in an instant, and couldn't help but sighed: "Good guy, you must have monopolized the Air Force Medal in private, just to sell it for an extra 1 yuan."

"It can't be said that. Air Force Medals are rarer than the Army and Navy. Even if they are sold alone, they must cost more than 3 yuan."

The stall owner argued.

Among the three federal armies, the air force has the smallest number, only 3 to , because the air force has invested too much and has little effect.

Instead, a considerable portion of the Air Force's military spending has been diverted to the aerospace industry.

Yang Haoxuan didn't negotiate the price this time, and simply said with a wave of his hand, "Give me a set!"

The salary of the staff at the executive mansion is not bad. He has already received two months' salary, plus all kinds of benefits, he has saved almost 10 yuan.

Just enough to buy a whole set of medals.

He was going to give this set of medals to his father as a gift. If the sports car was exposed, at least he should show some kindness, so that there would be no one to persuade him to fight.

The stall owner immediately beamed with joy when he heard this:
"Okay, I'll find you a better box."

At the same time, Chen Chuan finally received the appraisal report, and the appraisal result was true.

He immediately told Yang Haoxuan the result, then pulled off his mask, and came to the stall owner:
"Boss, for my old Chen's sake, can the Congressional Gold Medal be cheaper?"

"Boss Chen? Why are you?"

The stall owner was a little caught off guard.

"This little brother is my friend and one of my own. Can you accommodate me?"

Chen Chuan cupped his hands towards the opponent.
