Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

Chapter 192
Bistro.

Yang Yukun was sitting behind the counter, chatting with some old men who came to drink in the store.

He Chunfen and He Lixia were helping in the small cafeteria next door, and Xu Jingtian took the wine utensils and chopsticks back to the back yard for cleaning.

The black panther was lying next to the counter, dealing with a piece of sheep bone.

Xu Jingping went to work at Zhiweilou Restaurant, and Xu Jingli and Hou Kui went out early in the morning, saying they were going to the department store.

"Ding dong..."

"Master, you are here."

There is a bell hanging on the door of the tavern, and the bell will ring when someone comes in through the curtain.

There was no bell in the tavern before, but this bell was hung by the old man later.

Hearing movement at the door, Yang Yukun looked up at the door and found that it was the master and Liu Yuehua.

"Uncle Kun."

Liu Yuehua greeted Yang Yukun with a smile.

Poor Hou asked: "Disciple, is your father-in-law and mother-in-law here?"

"They went to the country yesterday and haven't come back yet."

"Didn't you just come back, why did you go again?"

"Go and transfer the household registration for Sister Chunfen and Lixia."

"That's it, a jug of wine and a whole plate of pickles."

"Come on, master, you sit down first."

Yang Yukun made two jugs of small wine, filled a plate of small pickles, poured the wine for the master, and drank with the master.

"Black Panther."

Liu Yuehua saw the black panther lying on his stomach next to the counter, and ran to fight with it for a while.

"Xiaohua."

"Hey, Uncle Kun, what's the matter?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to practice martial arts with me before? I haven't seen you come to me for so long. Why, are you scared?"

Before the Liulichang ghost market auction, Yang Yukun took care of a few ghosts.

This kid Liu Yuehua saw him knocking down a few ghosts, so he said he wanted to practice martial arts with him.

But in the past so long, I haven't seen this kid come to him.

Could it be that this kid has already put this matter behind him?
"Uncle Kun, I'm not afraid, I'll come to you tomorrow morning."

"If you really want to practice with me, you can find me in our yard at 05:30 tomorrow morning."

"Uncle Kun, don't worry, I will definitely be there tomorrow morning."

Poor Hou said, "Teacher, have you been to the Liulichang ghost market recently?"

"No, master, what about you?"

"I go there every time. I also go to Liulichang when I have nothing to do during the day. Recently, there are more and more fakes on the market."

"Normally, as the antique business becomes more and more popular, and more and more people do this business, there will naturally be more and more imitations."

"It is much more difficult to find a high-grade real thing now than before."

"Master, have you found any good items at Liulichang recently?"

"It's okay, by the way, disciple, do you know what the second auction in Liulichang Ghost Market is about?"

"do not know."

Previously, Yang Yukun participated in the first auction of Liulichang Ghost Market with his master.

At the end of the auction, the auctioneer in the embarrassing mask said that the second auction was a very interesting and unique auction.

It's just that the location of the auction is not in Forty-Nine City, nor in other places in the imperial capital, but in Yanzhao Province next door.

Because the auction was in another place, none of them got the invitation letter for this auction, so naturally they don't know the situation of this auction.

Poor Hou said: "It is said that this auction is an ancient tomb."

"Ancient tomb?"

"I heard that the people behind the Liulichang ghost market discovered an ancient tomb in Yanzhao Province. They took the people who participated in the auction directly to the site of the ancient tomb, and took out the artifacts from the ancient tomb on the spot. On-site appraisal live auction."

"real or fake?"

"There is nothing wrong with it. It is true in all likelihood. It is said that it is still an ancient tomb from the Song Dynasty. Most of the funerary objects in the tomb are porcelain from the Song Dynasty."

There were quite a few people participating in this Liulichang ghost market auction, and it was impossible to keep it completely secret, as there would always be gossip.

Potty Hou heard this news from a friend who also plays collection.

The news about the ancient tomb auction is basically confirmed to be true.

It is said that in the tomb, porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty was also found.

"I'm going, is it so wild to play?"

Yang Yukun didn't expect that the group of people behind Liulichang Ghost Market would play so wildly, and they would directly set up an ancient tomb auction.

Pull people to the site of the ancient tomb, and pick up the artifacts from the ancient tomb to auction on the spot.

These grandsons were not afraid that the owner of the tomb would cheat the corpse on the spot, so they crawled out of the coffin to settle accounts with them.

"It's really wild, but I always feel that this may be a round."

"Master, do you suspect that the ancient tomb is fake?"

"It's not impossible, and this kind of counterfeiting method has not appeared before."

"If the ancient tomb is really fake, these grandchildren are not afraid to play off."

Build a tomb on the spot.

It is also a means of fraud in this business.

Many collectors like to look for unearthed goods everywhere. As the name suggests, they are antiques dug out of the tomb.

But tomb robbers are all criminals, so it's not so easy to find them.

So some fake antique dealers had a flash of inspiration and went directly to a site to build a tomb and forged an ancient tomb.

Dig a big pit in advance to pretend to be an ancient tomb, and then bury the fake antiques prepared in advance, waiting for the collectors to take the bait.

After seeing the antiques dug out with their own eyes, many collectors are convinced of this, and they want to take these treasures home even if they lose their fortunes.

The master suspects that the gang behind Liulichang Ghost Market is playing tricks of building tombs on the spot, and it is not impossible.

After all, if an ancient tomb of the Song Dynasty is really discovered, it is completely possible to take out the artifacts in the tomb and sell them secretly. Who would bring people to the site of the ancient tomb for auction with great fanfare?

"Whether it's a real ancient tomb or a tomb built on site, it has nothing to do with us. Come and drink."

"Master, you are right."

Yang Yukun picked up the wine glass and bumped it with the master, regardless of whether he built the tomb on the spot, it has nothing to do with their master and apprentice.

"By the way, apprentice, I read in today's Imperial Capital Daily that your Master Chen from Zhiweilou Restaurant won the No. 1 result in the Imperial Capital's First Didu Famous Chef Culinary Competition. It's not bad."

"This is due to Master Chen's own ability, and has nothing to do with our Zhiweilou Restaurant."

Yang Yukun also read today's Didu Daily, which published news about the finals of the first Didu culinary competition.

In addition to mentioning Chen Yuliang who won the first imperial chef award, the news also mentioned the restaurant where they were located.

Therefore, Zhiweilou Restaurant also showed its face in front of the masses of the imperial capital.

However, being able to win one of the famous chefs in the imperial capital with the No.1 ranking is due to Chen Yuliang's own outstanding cooking skills, not because he is the chef of Zhiweilou restaurant.

The chef of Zhiweilou Restaurant won No. 1, and the influence of the restaurant will expand accordingly. This is what Chen Yuliang, the chef, brought to Zhiweilou Restaurant.

I don't know how much the sales of Zhiweilou Restaurant can be increased by today's news.
