After the formalities were completed, Li Xian hired a few small workers to clean the house, and by the way, he repainted the peeling wall skin.

It's only five or six miles away from the back door of the school, and it's easy to ride a bicycle back and forth.

Every day after school, Li Xian would come here, and he found a wooden sign with the words "Purchase items from the previous year".

I didn't see the antiques, but there were a lot of scraps.

At this time, there were still many stalls in the Western Capital, selling antiques such as vases.

One weekend, Li Xian and a few people in the dormitory looked carefully at the stalls, but they never saw anything satisfactory.

No matter what the boss said, it can't hide the logo of Made in Suzhou printed under a vase.

Originally, Li Xian thought that the vase was quite delicate and planned to buy it, but when he saw that sign, he instantly felt like he had eaten Xiang.

After being introduced, they came to a relatively remote antique market in Xidu.

It was the end of October, and the environment was a little gloomy on the side of the antique market, and when a few of them stepped into the door, they instantly attracted the vigilant eyes of many people.

There are many stalls on both sides of the road, and judging from the color of the antiques on display, it is indeed a few grades higher than before.

However, there was no boss who received them sincerely, firstly because they did not match their age, and secondly, there was no one to recommend them.

As they walked down the street, the hostility of the crowd was palpable.

In fact, there are a lot of valuable antiques here, and some antiques that are not from the same source will also be traded here, but without the guarantee of acquaintances, who will be assured to do business with a stranger?

"It looks like we're in the wrong place. Li Xian smiled bitterly and prepared to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, an angry scolding came from a nearby store: "You kid, do you plan to rely on this month's rent?"

"Owner, no matter how tolerant and tolerant you are, you just opened today, maybe there will be business in a while?" a man with a face full of stubble and stubble held a little girl in his arms and pleaded in a low voice.

"Tolerant? Honestly, I wasn't tolerant enough of you? You've been dragging on for two whole years, and I've asked you for a son? If it weren't for your dead father's sake, I would have kicked you out a month ago. How many times have I told you, don't mess around with those Xibei goods all day long, who do you think will buy them?"

The proprietor was still angry, threw out a bag of luggage, and mocked: "Honestly go find a job moving bricks, and the money you owe will be burned by me for your father." ”

The scumbag man touched the little girl's head and comforted: "Rongrong, don't cry, it's okay, when Dad makes money, I'll buy you something delicious." ”

"Well, dad is the best. The little girl tilted her head, held back her tears, and nodded in response.

The scumbag man reached out to pick up the bag of luggage, but he didn't notice that a cyan porcelain jar rolled out and rolled to Li Xian's feet.

Li Xian glanced at the carved pattern on the jar and was amazed, so he picked it up and examined it carefully.

The body of the can is carved with a lifelike phoenix, and the sharp eyes go straight to the heart, as if it is about to come to life.

Han Hui and the others were also amazed: "This carving is really beautiful." ”

"It's a pity it's a fake, young man, and if you like it, I can give you a discount. The scumbag man walked over and said with a smile.

Li Xian's heart moved, and he asked, "Do you know how to identify antiques?"

When the scumbag man saw others questioning himself, he said unhappily: "It's just the craft of eating, who doesn't know how to do it on this street?"

Li Xian pointed to a stall next to him and asked, "Which of these is a genuine antique?"

The bearded scumbag man only glanced at it and said, "It's all fakes, and if there is a real thing, it won't be easily put out." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, several customers gathered around the stall instantly put down their things and left without looking back.

The stall owner was unhappy, stood up and pointed at the scumbag man and said, "Lao Du, what do you mean? I didn't offend you, why are you smashing my business?"

"People are not stupid, put up some tricks every day?" said the scumbag man not to be outdone.

Li Xian lowered his head in disdain, he wanted to buy some just now, and he was almost fooled.

The stall owner crossed his waist and scolded: "Hey, your master didn't teach you to cut off people's money, it's like killing your parents? ”

"Liars. The little girl pouted and rolled her eyes, causing Li Xian and the others to laugh.

"You motherless loser, see if I don't beat you. The stall owner picked up a bamboo stick and scared the little girl.

The little girl hurriedly hid in the man's arms and pursed her mouth.

"Boss, you must at least be honest, right?"

"A handful of age is used to deceive people. ”

"What's the difference between that broken bottle and the glass we did the last chemical test? ”

"It's all good, but the most annoying thing is that picture, isn't it just a primary school student who scribble?"

Li Xian and Han Hui have long been unaccustomed to this arrogant stall owner, you say a word to me, and the stall owner is ashamed.

"You wait!" the stall owner put away his things, gave them an angry look, and left.

"You are not from here, so why should you offend him? The scumbag man took a clay pot and dragged the little girl away, as if he didn't want to cause such an idle matter.

Li Xian looked at the back of the scumbag man and said, "Trouble? Doesn't this belong to the realm of the state? No matter how awesome they are, aren't they also citizens? Are they justified in cheating?"

The bearded man almost fell, and he thought that this young man was really simple and cute.

"Guys, let's go!" he said, waving his hand.

Li Xian and a few people also felt that it was not interesting, he originally wanted to win over this man and take care of his business, but now he didn't know how to say it.

However, he watched the man's back walk away, and he couldn't help but shout: "Hey, you're full of scum, are you interested in sitting down for a meal and discussing it together." ”

"Not interested. The scumbag man replied without thinking about it.

"I have a big courtyard house that can accommodate a lot of people. ”

"I also just want to have a drink with my little brother. ”

"......" Li Xian and the four looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of them all of a sudden, speechless.

At this moment, a group of young men came up with sticks, followed by the stall owner and an older man.

The scumbag man looked at this formation, hurriedly walked up to the old man, bent down and said, "Fourth master, give face, they are my friends." ”

The fourth master played with walnuts in his hand, pushed him away, looked at Li Xian and the four of them and asked, "Which way is it mixed up?"

"On the road, this Nima, can't it be the underworld, right?" Li Xian was shocked, seeing their posture, most of them were trying to take the opportunity to blackmail.

He tried to stay calm, held his breath, thought for a while and said, "Hong Xingbang, the boss is Chen Haonan." ”

"Hongxing Gang?" The fourth master and all the junior brothers suddenly froze when they heard this name.
