Qin Tai, seeing that the person who came was a student younger than him, impatiently waved his hand and said, "Go away! Go play somewhere else!"
Lin Shi was not annoyed and said, "I like to collect different coins. I am interested in the coin in your hand. You can resell it to me."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of whispering among the people around.
"This young man is stupid, right? He still wants to collect something that is clearly fake?"
"This is still a student, right? Does he have so much money?"
Zhao Xiao was also stunned. He didn't know why Lin Shi wanted to buy something that was clearly known to be fake.
He knew that Lin Shi was rich, but he didn't know that Lin Shi was so rich.
One hundred thousand yuan. He would need three years of working as a city management officer without eating or drinking to have so much money.
How great it would be if he had this money instead of buying this crappy copper coin!
Zhao Xiao, standing behind Lin Shi, had a flash of jealousy and hatred in his eyes.
When Qin Tai heard that Lin Shi was willing to take over, his eyes lit up and he immediately handed the ancient coin in his hand to Lin Shi.
This was an ancient coin that seemed like gold but not gold. On one side was engraved a gold ingot, and on the other side were several strange characters and patterns.
Many people came over to take a look and then shook their heads and stepped back.
Most of the people around were people who were constantly looking for opportunities to find treasures in the antique market all year round. They also had some discernment. This "ancient coin" was brand new in appearance. The pattern was not like the currency of any known dynasty. Instead, it was like a copper coin for children to play games in an arcade.
Everyone looked at Lin Shi as if looking at a rich and stupid fool.
An old man kindly reminded, "Young man, you have to be careful when buying things."
Feeling the warmth coming from the cornucopia in the backpack behind him, Lin Shi confirmed that this was what he was looking for. No matter whether this ancient coin was valuable or not, being able to open a storage space made this ancient coin priceless to Lin Shi.
Lin Shi said, "Transfer it to me for one hundred thousand."
Qin Tai's eyes rolled. He looked at Lin Shi's clothes and said, "Fifteen thousand and you can take it."
Just now he was still clamoring for a refund. Now that Lin Shi said he wanted it, he raised the price on the spot. Immediately, the people around cast contemptuous looks.
Lin Shi smiled and turned to leave.
He counted to three in his heart. This person would definitely call him back.
Sure enough, after taking only a few steps, someone stopped him. But it was not Qin Tai. It was the old man who set up the stall. "Young man, if you want this kind of ancient coin, I still have one. I'll sell it to you for one hundred thousand!"
Lin Shi suddenly turned around. "You still have one?!"
The old man tremblingly took out a cloth bag from his bosom and took out another ancient coin. He hopefully handed it to Lin Shi.
He was really short of money. His son was sick with leukemia. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken out this family heirloom ancient coin for sale.
His ancestors had instructed that the two ancient coins must not be lost. But now if he didn't sell them, he would have no descendants. Selling these two ancient coins would also cover his son's surgery expenses.
Lin Shi took the ancient coin and lowered his eyes to hide the shock and surprise. Sure enough, it was exactly the same. The cornucopia also reacted.
Unexpectedly, there was not only one of these ancient coins but two!
"Old man, how many more of these ancient coins do you have?" Lin Shi asked.
"Only these two. They are family heirlooms. If it weren't for being in urgent need of money, I wouldn't sell them." The old man sighed.
This answer was expected. The number of such special ancient coins must not be many. The one in his hand should be the one he found in his previous life. The one in Qin Tai's hand was not discovered in his previous life.
"Okay, I want this one."
Lin Shi nodded at the old man and took out his mobile phone to transfer money.
Seeing that Lin Shi had already paid quickly, Qin Tai carefully looked at the ancient coin in his hand and wondered if there was some mystery to this ancient coin?
After the old man sold the ancient coin, he happily packed up his stall and was about to leave.
When Lin Shi saw Qin Tai's expression, he knew that Qin Tai had become suspicious.
He was determined to obtain this second ancient coin.
But from the previous conversation, he already knew that Qin Tai was a greedy person. If Qin Tai discovered something unusual, he would definitely raise the price on the spot or even refuse to sell it.
So after transferring money to the old man, Lin Shi turned and left as if he had no interest at all in the ancient coin in Qin Tai's hand.
This made Qin Tai, who was waiting for Lin Shi to show some flaws, panic a little.
In the end, he still chose to believe his cousin and quickly stopped Lin Shi.
"Handsome guy, look, you can take this one in my hand too, right?"
Lin Shi said unhappily, "Just now when I asked you to sell it to me for one hundred thousand, you didn't want to. Now that I already have one, this one in your hand is not very meaningful to me."
Qin Tai glanced at the old man who was about to leave. He didn't bother the old man anymore.
Of course, he knew that the chance of getting a refund was not high. After all, the rules of the antique world were there. At first, he just wanted to be unreasonable because he was young.
He quickly said, "Now I'll sell it to you for one hundred thousand. I also paid one hundred thousand to get it. I won't make any profit from you. Is that okay?"
Lin Shi gave him a faint glance and said, "Fifty thousand."
In the end, after some bargaining, Lin Shi bought the second ancient coin from Qin Tai for eighty thousand.
Looking at the two ancient coins in his palm, Lin Shi's mouth curved into a shallow smile. If he hadn't come today, he would have missed this ancient coin.
He couldn't wait to see what changes the cornucopia would have in this life.
Sending off Zhao Xiao, whose eyes were filled with envy, Lin Shi hurried home.
Zhao Xiao would be dealt with sooner or later, but not now.
Back home, Lin Shi locked the door, walked into the storage room without windows, and closed the door of the storage room as well.
The commotion when the cornucopia is activated is not small and cannot be noticed by others.
Taking out the slightly warm cornucopia.
Lin Shi first put one ancient coin into it.
The cornucopia floated up and suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
The dirt and patina on it fell off piece by piece, revealing the original appearance of the cornucopia.
Then it turned into a golden light and flew into Lin Shi's glabella.
Lin Shi's vision blurred for a moment, and a game-like interface appeared.
[Cornucopia]
[Function: Storage space 333]
[Money points required for upgrade: 100000]
The space has appeared!
Lin Shi clenched his fist, and his face couldn't hide his joy.
The size of the space is equivalent to a small room. As long as it can fit, anything except living things can be accessed with the mind.
Time is still inside the space. Items put into the space remain in the state they were when put in.
The most important thing is that this space can also be upgraded with gold, silver, and jewels.
In his previous life, Lin Shi tried to upgrade the space with gold and silver.
Unfortunately, in the eighth year of the apocalypse, these things were all buried under thick snow, and he didn't even complete the first level upgrade.
He didn't know if with one more ancient coin in this life, would the cornucopia have some other changes?
Lin Shi picked up the second ancient coin and placed it on his glabella.
Immediately, Lin Shi felt a heat on his glabella, and the ancient coin in his hand disappeared.
The interface of the cornucopia in front of him became blurry like it was filled with garbled characters.
After a moment, the interface that regained clarity indeed showed great changes.
