Wu Chen quickly gave the old man a thumbs-up, stopped talking, and watched him rattle the plate of copper coins again, then slammed it down on the ground, and recorded the number of heads and tails.Start to shake again, pour and record again, and repeat this six times.

Wu Chen didn't bother to watch him fiddling with it. This is the simplest hexagram made with copper coins. It is nothing more than forming six lines according to the yin and yang numbers each time, corresponding to the hexagram image of a certain hexagram.

Because of squatting for a long time, Wu Chen's legs felt numb. Wu Chen stood up, moved a bit, looked up to the overpass, and found that there was a gap between the steps. When he looked sideways, he could see the girl in the skirt walking by. upskirt!Wu Chen chuckled, thinking it's no wonder the old man wants to stay here, he's quite smart, he knows how to choose a place.

Thinking of this, Wu Chen couldn't help looking at Chen Waizui. Seeing that he had finished fiddling with him and was muttering with his fingers, he squatted down again, pretending to be concerned and asked, "How is it going?"

"Strange! Damn it!" Chen looked at Wu Chen with his mouth twisted, and shouted in a daze.

What is this called? Wu Chen gave him a very dissatisfied look, "You've just gone to hell! Oh, no, I've just gone to hell!"

Chen Waizui chuckled, and said, "Little brother, I didn't mean that. I mean this hexagram is weird! You see, all six lines are yang, I haven't touched it before!"

Hearing what he said, Wu Chen also gave a huff, and quickly calculated in his heart, Liuyao Quanyang, the probability is really not high, nearly one in 30, it seems that he can buy a welfare lottery and win a medium prize No problem.

Chen Waizui stared at Wu Chen, a little surprised in his heart, but he said in his mouth: "From the perspective of the hexagram, this is the Qian hexagram, moving in the fourth line, it is the image of jumping in the deep. , the dry way is revolution. Up and down are impermanent, it is not evil. Advance and retreat are not permanent, it is not outlier..."

Wu Chen naturally knew that what he was talking about was the ninety-four line of the Qian Gua, which emphasizes rigidity but not middle, the top is not in the sky, the bottom is not in the fields, and the middle is not in people, so it may be so.Or, doubt it, so there is no blame.It fits well with my current situation.

But if you think about this world carefully, who is not like this?One step forward is happiness, or it may be loneliness. Everyone is making different decisions and choices every moment. According to the N-dimensional world interpretation of quantum theory, every moment will be separated and live in a different world. , which is "or"!

It is no surprise that one word or words can sum up many people's lives.Seeing that Chen Waizui was still shaking his head and reciting his words, Wu Chen hurriedly stopped him: "Come on, brother Waizui! What you said is too mysterious, I can't understand it! But I have heard that the two hexagrams of Qiankun are wonderful. , not in the first line of Qiankun, but in the second line of Qiankun, the Qian hexagram should use nine, right?"

"You also know how to use nine?!" Chen Weizui was a little stunned, and he stopped talking, how dare you pretend to be B to tease yourself!

"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." Wu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "You keep going."

Chen Waizui took a breath, and said to himself: "Looking from the hexagram, your current career is in an ambiguous state. It depends on whether you dare to take a step. If you jump out, it may be a flying dragon in the sky. If you step back Back to the point where "a gentleman works all day long, and he is vigilant at night". As for feelings, don't worry about gains and losses! Be brave, be active, and take the initiative! As long as you dare, you will gain something! Alright, five yuan!" Chen Wei Talking on the lips, imitating the gesture of the leader pushing the palm forward, it is very imposing!But in the end, when he changed the subject, his hand happened to reach out in front of Wu Chen, with the palm facing up, and the index finger hooked the middle finger.

Wu Chen couldn't help laughing, and smiled and gave Chen Waizui five yuan to watch the show. It's a pity that this guy doesn't go to the Tianqiao, so he thought, "Brother Waizui, I think you can play the erhu again, or Little sanxian or something, fortune-telling, performing arts at the same time, never falling behind, how nice it is!"

"Isn't it old-fashioned? Those are the things I played with my brother 20 years ago! I think back then, I even got a tape recorder, so I could lip-sync or something." He took out a crumpled business card from his pocket and handed it to Wu Chen, "Little brother, take care of me when you have more time!"

Wu Chen was a little bit dumbfounded, why now those who are running around like to give out business cards everywhere.Seeing that the card was black and dirty, he didn't answer it, and took out his mobile phone to write down the mobile number with Chen Waizui.

After saying goodbye to Chen Waizui, Wu Chen walked slowly towards Kangwang Middle Road. He felt that today was quite interesting. He had been in the unit for a long time, and he was still very happy to get in touch with these people in the market and get a feel for life. breath.

After a few bus transfers, he finally arrived at Kangwang Middle Road and turned to Changshou Road. Wu Chen found Kong Si's stall last time, but someone went to sell it. Could it be that he ran away after hacking himself?No way, it's just a 500 yuan plate.

Wu Chen couldn't help but feel a little strange. Although vendors like Kong Si were called mobile vendors, they generally had their own fixed locations and rarely moved around.

Wu Chen took out his mobile phone and called Kong Si. Kong Si said on the phone that he was on his way to the old house and was going to ask someone to look at a purple clay pot. He asked Wu Chen if he was interested, and if so, he would go over .

"Okay!" Wu Chen immediately agreed upon hearing this!I have nothing to do with myself, I am so idle, and I like the purple sand pot.

On the phone, I asked about the location, which is in the area of ​​Duobao Road. There is a relatively well-preserved Xiguan mansion there. Those who still live there are either wealthy and idle people, or the bottom of the society.

But the one who can make Kong Si come to visit and ask for advice must be an expert, right?If you want to enter this profession, it is very necessary to have seniors to guide you.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Chen thought that his old pot hadn't been figured out yet, so why not bring it along with him, ask others for advice, and get familiar with it by the way.

After thinking about it, Wu Chen looked at the time, it was too late!So I rushed back to work, took the ancient pot, wrapped it in old newspapers, put it in my underwear pocket, and rushed to the place Kong Si said - Laoxiguan!

They both say "the young master of Dongshan and the young lady of Xiguan", which means that the two are right, you are either rich or rich, so don't think about it for the hard-working poor.

In the old days, the Dongshan area was a place where rich and powerful officials lived, and most of them were dudes.A cup of black tea, a fireplace, and a bungalow are all about the typical life of the returning overseas Chinese master Dongshan.

The Xiguan area is a bustling commercial area, mostly rich ladies. A pot of orchids, a cage of thrushes, and first-hand cooking skills are the exquisite attitude of an authentic rich Miss Xiguan.

In that era, Dongshan Mansion and Xiguan Mansion represented power and wealth, modernity and tradition, and each had its own thing and complemented each other.

Especially in the Xiguan area, it was named after it was located outside the west gate of the old city of Guangfu during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Because it was close to the big river, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Shibafu was built and thirteen rows were opened. Gradually formed the old Guangfu business distribution center, and in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, residential areas such as Baoyuan Street, Fengbao Street, and Duohua Street were successively built, and gradually formed the famous Xiguan House.

Today, this area is mostly dilapidated and messy. Except for a few main roads, Wu Chen doesn't know the way very well, and asks questions as he walks.When Kong Si told the address, he saw that it was a well-preserved big house. The door was open, and one could see the typical mud bricks, terracotta floor and rough and uncarved log furniture of Xiguan big house at a glance. Park.

Because he didn't see anyone, Wu Chen didn't dare to run around. If it was an ordinary family, it would be fine, but if he ran into a house where a girl was there, he couldn't tell what misunderstanding it caused.

He made a phone call to Kong Si, and saw him coming out of it after a while, he seemed very happy, haha ​​came over, and stretched out his hand to pat Wu Chen on the shoulder.

"No, I said buddy, can we change this habit in the future? Just nod in greeting!" What's wrong with this!How could Wu Chen dare to be photographed by his devil's palm? Last time he was photographed so painfully that he almost suspected that he had suffered an internal injury!

"Hehe, it's pretty fast!" Kong Si withdrew his hand and led Wu Chen in.

"I was at your booth. I didn't find you, so I called you. I went back to work and got a pot, which is around here. Remember to ask someone to look at it for me later?" Wu Chen said while talking. While following Kong Si into the door.

"No problem!" Kong Si readily agreed, and it could be seen that he was really in high spirits today!

Damn, I really deserve to be a wealthy family!

As soon as he stepped into the gate, Wu Chen immediately felt a strong Xiguan style - the soft light shines from the three antique window grilles on the top of the entrance, reflecting the pure copper handle on the elm shoe cabinet black and shiny.

Passing through the entrance porch, the display cabinets in the wall are separated by old-fashioned antique racks imitated by teak wood. In a blue and white porcelain vase above, a large bunch of green leafy plants stretch out wantonly, and an enamel birthday star is charmingly naive.

The ground is the flower-step bricks that were popular in the big families in Xiguan for a while. The yellow-gray floor bricks are assembled into one piece, and the connecting parts in the middle are embedded with small brown diamond-shaped bricks.The staggered steps are veneered with gray-green square bricks of different sizes.

Wu Chen smacked his mouth, this was too different from the dilapidated old mansion he had imagined, this kind of simple elegance handed down from generation to generation is really not easy to achieve!However, Kong Si, a street peddler, can get to know this kind of people?

Seeing Wu Chen's eyes full of doubts, Kong Si understood what he meant, and introduced him in a low voice. It turned out that the family's surname was Tian, ​​and the old man was an expert.Kong Si just took out a purple clay pot today, so he was not sure, so he came to ask Mr. Tian for help.

To say that this Tian family is also a well-known owner of Xiguan. As early as the Ming Dynasty, there were members of the tribe who entered the court as officials. In the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, they started their business by foreign trade. It was not until the Jian Dynasty that the ancestral house was confiscated, and then it was released to the Tian family.

As a descendant of the Tian family, Mr. Tian enjoys a high reputation in the local area. He is a folk collector as famous as Mr. Ma in Beijing. In recent years, he has donated several batches of treasures to the country and won countless honors.

Wu Chen seemed to have seen reports of these things in the newspapers. He didn't expect to be able to visit him today, and he was even more surprised that Kong Si could still know the old man of the Tian family.

While talking, the two had already arrived at the atrium, went up the steps and entered the living room, and saw a vigorous old man sitting leisurely on a grand master's chair, wearing black casual clothes, smiling at them.Wu Chen quickly gave the old man a thumbs-up, stopped talking, and watched him rattle the plate of copper coins again, then slammed it down on the ground, and recorded the number of heads and tails.Start to shake again, pour and record again, and repeat this six times.

Wu Chen didn't bother to watch him fiddling with it. This is the simplest hexagram made with copper coins. It is nothing more than forming six lines according to the yin and yang numbers each time, corresponding to the hexagram image of a certain hexagram.
