Chapter 110 A request from a cultural relic expert
The stone sculpture that Fu Yihong wanted to buy was in Xi'an Antique City, Shaanxi. After Mo Liming and her walked out of the airport, they headed straight to the antique market.

The car drove on the road for about an hour, but fortunately it was unimpeded, so it arrived at the destination smoothly.

"You two, we're at Suzaku Avenue."

After the taxi stopped slowly, the driver turned around and greeted with enthusiasm with a smile on his face.

"Yes. Thank you, master." Mo Liming also responded politely.

At that moment, he took the initiative to pay the fare of more than 90 yuan, and then got out of the car with Fu Yihong.

They are now in the "Suzaku Gate" in the South District of XA City, and walking inside is the famous "Suzaku Street" in history. Mo Liming had seen related introductions on TV occasionally before, and knew this The street was also famous during the Tang Dynasty.

"Mo Liming, let's go in slowly. The Antique City is in the middle of 'Suzaku Street'." Fu Yihong said with a sweet smile.

"Oh. Okay." Mo Liming nodded and agreed casually.

So the two walked side by side through the "Suzaku Gate" along the sidewalk, and walked towards the antique city in a leisurely manner.

It was the first time to come to the name of one of the four ancient capitals in the world with a rich history, and Mo Liming was naturally very excited. Every plant, every tree, and every scene in his eyes was extremely fresh.

Only listening to Fu Yihong's voice, she introduced melodiously: "Xi'an is said to be a 'Museum of Natural History', where you can see many historical relics, and there are also many antique markets, including 'Xiaodongmen Folk Collection' It is the largest antique trading market in Xi'an, and it is also the largest one in Northwest China. It is famous Famous. Mo Liming, do you know that the road we are walking on was called "Tianmen Street" by people in the Tang Dynasty, or "Tianjie" for short, but at that time the emperor walked in the south of the city to worship heaven a street."

"Oh, really?" Hearing Fu Yihong talk about relevant anecdotes, Mo Liming smiled with interest.

"Yes." Fu Yihong smiled and nodded, "There are also 'Small Wild Goose Pagoda' and 'Xi'an Museum' nearby, let's go for a walk when we have time after finishing our work, since this is your first time here , that must be interesting."

"Okay." Mo Liming said happily, "Anyway, I'm here, so I'll have a good time visiting when I have time. Chang'an, the legendary 'capital of the ancient capital', how lucky and meaningful it is to have a look at its appearance."

The two talked and walked, and walked into the hinterland of the antique city unknowingly. According to Fu Yihong's [-] introduction, Mo Liming knew the market for antiques here. There is also a morning market, which is the largest antique morning market in Northwest China. At that time, all kinds of antiques will be filled in the market. Stall owners from all over the world, including Nantong in the south, gather here. Large and small stalls let tourists hide Everyone is dazzled.

In the cultural relics market in Xi'an, apart from this, most of the items sold in other places are handicrafts, such as "Hui Min Street". For fakes, if you want to pick up good ones, you need to rely on your eyesight. The so-called "Eight Immortals cross the sea and each show their magical powers".

Zhuque Road Antique City was built and developed on the basis of the original Zhongbei flea market. There are more than 500 permanent cultural relic stores and two trading halls. Pottery, bronze ware, jade ware, Tang Sancai, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing porcelains, old furniture, calligraphy and painting collections, etc., have everything you need. As long as you are looking for it, the antique dealers in each store may bring it out for you.

When Mo Liming and Fu Yihong arrived, there were so many people wandering in the street, they came and went like weaving, the two of them weaved through the crowd, looking at the stalls on both sides from time to time.

Mo Liming has long been in admiration of Fu Yihong's level of appreciating treasures. He only said that she has a pair of "picking eyes". Everything that passes her hands can be bought at the best price. It is very worthwhile, because she looks the same There is already a psychological price for the goods, and the owner of the goods is often at a disadvantage in front of big pedestrians like her, but as long as they can make a little money, they will only sell them early.

In the process of walking on the antique elder sister, Mo Liming concentrated his energy. He was trying to sense that breath, but it never came.

"Hey, the mysterious treasure on the man with the peaked cap can be regarded as a rare thing!" Mo Liming sighed secretly. He really regretted that he might never meet such a powerful one again in the future. There is a breath of "Buddha Spirit", and it can be sensed from a distance. This is probably the only thing in the world, because he knows well that there are no "Buddha antiques" with the breath of "Buddha Spirit" in general. Under certain circumstances, there is no feeling, and if there is, it is only vaguely, and it is difficult to detect if you do not sense it carefully.

"Mo Liming, let's go directly to Master Xiao's house first." Fu Yihong greeted.

"Okay." Mo Liming replied without thinking.

Master Xiao was the person Fu Yihong was looking for. The other party found her a batch of exquisite ancient stone carvings and asked her to inspect the goods.

Mo Liming has a little taste in stone carving art, and he doesn't know much, but he can see that Fu Yihong should also be a big expert in this area. He feels more and more that the other party is not simple, and his age is the same as his own. She is young, but has so much professional knowledge. From this, it can be imagined that her ancient cultural literacy is rich enough. It is no wonder that she comes from a famous family.

Now Fu Yihong led the way, Mo Liming followed her unhurriedly, and the two went straight to Master Xiao's antique shop.

However, at this moment, Fu Yihong suddenly stopped and turned to look to the other side.

"Manager Fu, what's the matter?" Mo Liming came up and asked in surprise.

Fu Yihong said: "Mo Liming, wait a moment, I met someone I know."

"Who?" Mo Liming asked casually.

"Here, you should also know Uncle Ji." Fu Yihong said, "What a coincidence, why is he also in Xi'an today? Is he also here for shopping?"

Following the direction Fu Yihong pointed, Mo Liming looked closely, and as expected, he only saw a familiar figure squatting there.

Mo Liming naturally knows the person in front of him. He is the former art director of "Jiu Ding Company", a cultural relic appraisal expert named "Ji Mindong". He is very famous in the industry in T city.

"Ah, what a coincidence!" Mo Liming couldn't help sighing.

"You have to say hello to acquaintances when you go out." Fu Yihong said to Mo Liming with a sweet smile, "Ask Uncle Ji to see what he is doing."

"That's natural. It just so happens that we haven't had lunch yet. Let's meet up later. I'll treat you." Mo Liming said enthusiastically.

"We'll talk about it then." Fu Yihong said happily, and then she turned to face Ji Mindong and shouted with joy: "Uncle Ji!"

Ji Mindong is old but his ears are still sharp. When he heard the crisp and familiar call, he immediately turned his head and caught Fu Yihong's figure at a glance.

"I knew you were calling me!" Ji Mindong immediately stood up, looked at Fu Yihong with a smile, and said cheerfully, "Yihong, what a coincidence? You came to Xi'an too?"

Fu Yihong stepped forward and replied bluntly: "We are going to XJ's WLMQ, and we just passed by Xi'an by plane, so we stopped by to visit an old friend to see something. Uncle Ji, what about you? What do you do here?" What are you doing?"

"Oh, that's how it is." Ji Mindong said suddenly, "I'm here to attend a grand event, which is related to the Cultural Relics Association. This is an expert from the XA City Museum, and he is also my best friend here."

Speaking of which, Ji Mindong pointed to the man who stood up with him just now. The man was about the same age as Ji Mindong, about 60 years old, with gray hair, but he looked rosy and energetic, a bit "old" Urchin" Zhou Botong felt.

"Old Zhou, this is my niece. She works in a large art auction company in our city. She is the youngest and best expert in their company. She has good eyesight!" Ji Mindong then told the city museum The experts introduced Fu Yihong in a high-profile way.

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" The expert said with a smile, "You are really young and promising!"

He also praised Fu Yihong, Fu Yihong blushed slightly, and greeted: "Hello, Uncle. You are too much, I am just a junior with little talent and learning."

She said a few words modestly, then pointed to where Mo Liming was, and said with a smile: "Uncle Ji, look, there is another person here. Hehe, do you know him?"

"Oh! It's Brother Mo, why don't I know him?! It's great that you came here together!"

It was only then that Ji Mindong realized Mo Liming's existence. When he recognized Mo Liming, he immediately acted very excited, and hurried up to shake hands with Mo Liming to say hello.

After the four of them had a face-to-face meeting, the Zhou expert was the host and invited the four of them to a nearby teahouse to sit down and have a good conversation.

After sitting down to watch tea, Ji Mindong happily introduced Mo Liming to Expert Zhou. He talked about the fact that Mo Liming recognized the "Xue Fang" that day, which made Expert Zhou full of praise, saying Mo Liming is a rising star in this industry, and it is undoubtedly the luck of the cultural relics circle to be able to fake the famous "Xue Fang" who has attracted the attention of countless experts.

Ji Mindong suddenly mentioned their reason for coming. It turned out that they were looking for a shopkeeper. The local antique shop owner was an Englishman. It was said that he was holding a heavy weapon, which he brought over from his own country. Only Yuan blue and white porcelain.

"...Yihong, Brother Mo, I happened to meet you two. If you have free time, come and take a look with us. We are worried that we won't be able to see that thing. After all, it is unusual. It should not be taken lightly if it is put on the shelf of the museum." Ji Mindong said straight to the point.
