World Tibet Bureau

Chapter 686 Old Friends

Since Mr. Wu took away 1000 million, I only got a small golden Buddha in the palm of Song Dynasty in Kyoto.

A few days ago, in order to win Lame Dragon's trust for cooperation, he even gave him a small golden Buddha in exchange for money.

I was walking in a hurry that day in Wujiapo, and I didn't know which subordinate Lame Long had put the card on, and he didn't get the money back.

Although Lu Cenyin gave Yingqing Pavilion shares.

But I'm not really a soft-boiled guy.

Having no money makes me feel insecure.

The antiques in Taishi are mainly concentrated in Nangong Market.

Nangong Market was originally the Workers' Cultural Palace. Later, because more stalls were set up nearby to exchange antiques, it gradually became a large-scale antique market. Its status in North China is second only to Panjiayuan.

Why can it be second only to Panjiayuan?
Although Jin Province is not as good as Shaanxi, Henan and other places in terms of emperors, generals and ministers, it cannot resist the fact that it has always had many wealthy people. In the past, it was a world-famous Shanxi merchant, and later it was a world-famous coal boss.

Antiques have always been a game for the rich.

After your pockets are bulging, you have to think about how to spend the money.

Antiques have several characteristics, such as fast money-burning, excitement between authenticity and fakeness, and high-end decoration, which strongly attracts the influx of these extremely wealthy businessmen.

For this reason, Jin Province antiques have three recognized characteristics in the industry: old, authentic and miscellaneous.

It’s always because people are really not short of money, and they look down on bargains from the Ming and Qing dynasties or the Republic of China, so they often play with the Warring States period urinals.

This is really because after the auction market was formalized, the first group of people active in domestic and foreign auction houses were coal bosses. The things bought at that time were indeed more authentic.

Because of the regional characteristics, antique dealers in Jin Province are particularly fond of miscellaneous items. Wood carvings, brick carvings, stone carvings, lacquerware, ancient cloth, coins, embroidery piers... Miscellaneous items that are difficult to sell in other places can basically be sold here.

When I went to the Nangong Antique Market, I found that the market was closed today and would not open until tomorrow.

I had to give up.

I was casually walking around on the street and saw a place selling silk scarves. I fell in love with a red silk scarf with green silk bamboo rusting on it. It was so green and green. I thought it really matched Xiaozhu, so I gave it to her. Bought.

After taking it back.

Xiaozhu was as happy as a child, carefully folding them up, looking extremely cherished.

I asked her why she didn't tie it up. It was quite windy here.

Xiaozhu sweetly replied: "I'll tie it up when I have the most important moment in my life."

I went to take a look at the lame dragon.

Xiaozhu didn't spare her.

This thing has been beaten out of shape.

Since Xia Xi hasn't called yet.

The money-making plan cannot be stopped.

The next day.

I went to Nangong Market again and walked around. I found that most of the stalls were mainly miscellaneous items, which was dizzying.

There are some things that are pretty good.

I picked it up before putting it away.

But once people get used to big money, they will lose interest in these gadgets.

Big things often depend on chance, and you can't just pick them up if you want to.

Xunsi guessed that there would be no chance of making money here, so he was about to go back when he saw someone quarreling at a stall in front of him and a lot of people gathered around him.

It’s inevitable to feel curious.

Check it out.

The person quarreling was a young man. He was holding a porcelain cricket jar in his hand and was arguing with the stall owner, blushing.

"You agreed to 1000 yuan, but why did you go back on your word? Do you do this kind of business?"

"You can take the cricket jar body for 1000 yuan, but you can't take the lid. If you want to take the lid with you, you'll have to add [-] yuan!"

"Is there anyone in the world who only sells cans but not can lids?"

"You're really right! I just sell the can body and not the can lid!"

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?!"

"Did you ask me? I always open and sell the jars and lids separately!"

"I don't want that tank anymore!"

"No! If you don't accept the goods after searching the bottom, you broke the rules. Who else will I sell this tank to in the future?! You must pay for it and take it away!"

"..."

I was suddenly speechless.

This young man fell into the stall owner's trick.

The stall owner must have placed the cans and can lids left and right separately.The jar lid is authentic Ming Chenghua kiln porcelain, while the jar body is a modern imitation.

The young man was very discerning. What he was interested in was actually the can lid. He thought he had missed it and wanted to buy the fake can body and the real can lid together for 1000 yuan.But in fact, the stall owner did this deliberately to attract people like the young man who want to pick up leaks. He sold the fake can body at a high price and did not sell the real can lid.

This thing is a bit like a cake-cutting party.

The sign clearly says "cut cake 30 yuan", you see the price is quite cheap, it weighs two kilograms, but they cut it down and weigh it for you. You were originally going to pay 60 yuan, but they say it is 30 yuan per tael. I want you to pay [-], and you have to buy it after it is cut, so I ask you if your brain is ringing?

suddenly!

I vaguely felt something was wrong behind me.

Instinctively, he immediately kicked him back.

There was a scream behind him.

A man was kicked to the ground by me.

There was black powder on his hands.

I was extremely surprised.

The young man buying cricket jars, the stall owner, and a few people watching the excitement turned around immediately and rushed towards me quickly.

Behind me, several men who were shopping in the market also turned around and attacked me.

The front and back are encircled.

I was shocked.

I thought that the young man had fallen into the trap of the stall owner.

I didn’t expect that the person who really fell into the trap was me!

They were arguing here before just to attract my attention, so that the guy with the black powder in his hand could knock me over when I wasn't prepared!
I immediately ducked to avoid the first wave of attacks, kicked over the two people at the front, jumped diagonally across a stall, and ran forward.

"Catch the thief!"

"This man stole my stuff!"

When the young man saw that I was trying to escape, he started shouting.

Today falls on the weekend.

There are many people visiting the antique market.

There are many people who are brave but completely kept in the dark, thinking that I am really a thief. They come to catch me, throw things at me, and set up obstacles to stop me...

I cursed in my heart.

He was [-]% targeted by the people shopping at the temple fair again!

I moved left and right and escaped from the market with great difficulty.

I was hit with a lot of eggs thrown by my aunt who came here to hang out after buying groceries.

I feel infinite regret in my heart.

The Tian family really screwed me up!

I had only been in Taishi for two days, and I was already being targeted.

I was very worried about Xiaozhu.

Because since I had leaked the news, the hardware store must have also leaked it. I rushed to the hardware store while calling Xiaozhu.

But Xiaozhu didn't answer the phone.

Returning to the hardware store extremely anxious.

Xiaozhu is coming out of the bathroom.

I guess she didn't answer the phone just now because she was taking a shower.

She saw that I was in a mess and asked me what was wrong.

I replied: "We have leaked our whereabouts. It is probably not safe here. You must change your clothes quickly. You must move immediately! By the way, where is the old man?"

Xiaozhu replied: "He went to deliver the goods and hasn't come back yet."

I turned to the next room and picked up the lame dragon.

Xiaozhu is changing clothes in the room.

After I got the lame dragon out, I passed by the door of Xiaozhu's room and found that Xiaozhu's clothes had been changed, but he was standing by the window, staring straight out of the window.

I asked her why she didn't leave yet.

Xiaozhu replied: "Brother, we may not be able to leave."

I quickly walked over to the window and took a look.

I found several cars coming outside and blocking the door of the hardware store.

An old friend got out of the car!
