Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Then, the two found four Sun Yat-sen coins minted in 12.

They've only sold three of these Republic of China founding commemorative coins so far, so they could get rid of a few more.

In addition to these special currencies, Ma Hongwei also took out 309 ordinary Yuan Shikai silver dollars and 126 ordinary Yuan Shikai silver dollars.

In addition, there are 45 ordinary Qing Dynasty silver coins and 33 Guangxu Yuanbao coins.

Ma Hongwei took photos of each of the special currencies and sent them to the group chat he had previously created.

It's unclear whether Yin Weimin simply didn't set up a do-not-disturb mode.

As soon as Ma Hongwei posted the photos in the group chat, Yin Weimin spoke up.

[Yin Weimin: "Am I seeing things? The first photo actually shows a 7/8 fen portrait silver dollar of Yuan Shikai, and there's even a signed version inside!!!"]

Old Yin: "What's so valuable about a 7/10 portrait Yuan Shikai silver dollar with an autograph? The most valuable one is still that Fengtian one-tael coin!"

[Mr. Wu: "Fengtian one tael? Are you referring to the Fengtian Province-minted Guimao Guangxu Yuanbao Kuping one tael?"]

Old Yin: "Old Wu, it's this silver coin!"

[General Jin: "What? Brother Ma even has a Fengtian one-tael coin? Wasn't it said that only one of these coins remained?"]

[Mr. Chen from Beijing: "Wasn't that all just hype? There are many other coins, how could there only be one of that particular type? It's just that the other coins either hadn't been discovered yet, or they were collected by the people who auctioned them!"]

[Ma Hongwei: "Collecting these coins took a lot of time. I'm planning to organize another auction to sell them. I wonder if any of you esteemed guests are free the day after tomorrow? If any of your friends are also interested, please bring them along. I would be extremely grateful!"]

[Mr. Chen from Beijing: "The day after tomorrow? Sure, I'll definitely go!"]

[Mr. Wu: "Although the old man has already collected several coins, he still wants to see the Fengtian one-tael coin, the king of coins, in person!"]

Sun Yaqian: "Today is so lively! I never expected Boss Ma to have such rare coins. I definitely have to participate this time!"

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "Holy crap, Brother Ma, you had something good and didn't tell me? If I hadn't checked WeChat, I would have missed it!"]

[President Hou: "Tingquan, I heard you lost a lot of money in the stock market?"]

[Yin Weimin: "Brother Quan, I saw the news too, what's going on?"]

Upon seeing the group chat content, Ma Hongwei looked utterly bewildered.

He was still unaware of what had happened.

So Ma Hongwei opened Douyin and found that the trending topic was indeed "Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures".

After clicking on it, many self-media outlets were forwarding Tingquan's words, saying that he was going to "say goodbye to the stock market," that he had "lost all his parents' retirement money," that he had been "kicked out of the family group chat," and that "if he continues to play, he will cut off his hands and delete all related stock software"...

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "Hey, you all know those self-media outlets; they always cut things out of context and take things out of the ordinary!"]

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "I did lose some money this time, but it wasn't that outrageous, and it's impossible that I would throw away my parents' retirement money."]

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "They never report on me for good things, only for useless things. I reckon they're probably just using me as a scapegoat for someone else. Because every time they report on me, it's because someone else has done something wrong and they're using me as a scapegoat!"]

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "To put it bluntly, this is just fake news fabricated from random snippets of information, specifically designed to attract attention!"]

[Yin Weimin: "I see, I thought you really went bankrupt, Quan-ge!"]

[Mr. Chen from Beijing: "He has nearly 35 million followers on Douyin alone, how could he go bankrupt so easily? And someone as shrewd as him, how could he possibly invest all his assets in stocks?"]

[Listening to the Spring and Appreciating Treasures: "Mr. Chen is right, we definitely need to keep something in reserve in this line of work!"]

Ma Hongwei watched the group chat for a while, then closed it.

He hasn't had a proper rest these past two days; he's been staying up late.

Whenever I feel sleepy, I wash my face with cold water.

I only take a nap when my eyes are sore and I'm extremely sleepy, but I dare not fall into a deep sleep.

With over a dozen alarms, I can't sleep in even if I want to.

In addition, I overworked myself this afternoon, and my body is extremely tired.

"yawn!"

Ma Hongwei yawned, and together with Xia Weiwei, they wrapped up the silver coins and put them into their storage space.

"Alright, let's go to sleep. I really can't take it anymore!"

As Ma Hongwei spoke, he lay down there to rest.

"Huffing and puffing~"

Soon after, he started snoring.

……

The next day, Ma Hongwei slept until noon.

After waking up, he didn't go anywhere.

And so, Xia Weiwei and I enjoyed some time alone together at the guesthouse.

The third day arrived quickly.

Ma Hongwei and Xia Weiwei are going to the Republic of China this afternoon.

Therefore, this second private auction was scheduled for the morning.

The location was still that business teahouse in Ancheng.

In addition to the people who came last time, there were three more bosses this time.

These two came with other people.

Several business owners even invited appraisers they knew to help them appraise treasures.

Although they themselves had seen many treasures in this industry, they were still somewhat lacking compared to professionals.

Ma Hongwei's appraiser and auctioneer were naturally the Yin family father and son.

"Many of you CEOs are not first-time attendees of our private auctions."

Yin Weimin chuckled and said, "I won't waste any more pleasantries; let's get straight to the point!"

"Today's first item for auction is a poor-quality Gansu version of the Yuan Shikai silver dollar!"

"Starting bid: 15 yuan; minimum bid increment: 2000 yuan!"

As he was speaking, Old Yin had already picked up a Yuan Shikai silver dollar and started handing it out to everyone to look at.

After everyone had looked through the documents, Tingquan made the first offer: "I'll offer 18!"

"13,000!"

Price quote for middle-aged beauty Sun Yaqian.

Tingquan offered again: "20!"

"13,000!"

"..."

Because this Yuan Shikai silver dollar is in average condition, its price stopped increasing after reaching 288000 yuan.

"288,000 for the third time!"

"288,000 for the third time!"

"288,000 for the third time!"

Yin Weimin made the decision: "Congratulations, Brother Quan, on acquiring this Gansu version of the Yuan Shikai silver dollar."

"Next up for auction is the second Gansu-issue Yuan Shikai silver dollar. This one is in near-fine condition, with a starting price of 1 million yuan and a minimum bid increment of 100 yuan!"

"Gentlemen, please take a look at the goods!"

Old Yin opened another brocade box, glanced at the currency inside, and handed the box to General Manager Wu next to him.
