The transaction method of the ghost market is the most common and primitive stall shopping, and this method is also the most satisfying and desirable for buyers. The ghost market is also the prototype of the formation of the cultural relics market, and the first batch of big names in the domestic antique collection industry are all relying on the ghost market to make their fortunes. As the collection fever continues to heat up, there are fewer and fewer valuable antiques, more monks and less porridge, and it is difficult to pick up the leakage in those mature antique markets, in contrast, the probability of picking up leaks in this ghost market is much greater, of course, opportunities and risks coexist, and the probability of being deceived in the ghost market and taking medicine has also greatly increased.

Liu Yue's time judgment was very accurate, and after half an hour, the two sides of the street below the teahouse, which was not very spacious, began to be lively, and the buyers and sellers seemed to emerge from the ground. Before the ghost market was fully opened, Tang Feng got up and said, "The early birds have something to eat, let's go." ”

"The early worms are out of luck. Liu Yue got up and nodded and said, "Let's go." ”

Men don't necessarily have to let women pay, Tang Feng and Liu Yue walked out of the teahouse and came to the ghost market after paying the bill, although the ghost market is also an illegal antique trading market, but the source of antiques is cleaner than the black market, some of these vendors are peddling old renminbi, these things must not be from tomb robbery. Seeing those valuable old versions of RMB, Tang Feng only regretted that he was born twenty years late, otherwise he would have collected the old version of RMB.

Playing collection is to put it bluntly, playing is the time difference, collecting the old version of the yuan is the best example, the vast majority of Chinese are confused by this time difference, where would they think that the banknotes that used to be often used now have become collectibles. The most regrettable must be those rich people, when the new version of the renminbi was released, they immediately exchanged the old currency in their hands for new currency, lest the old currency be invalidated, now that I think about it, they are pushing the God of Wealth alive.

Speaking of the old version of the renminbi, there are three different versions of the old currency with different denominations, I have to say that the nearest 80 version of 50 yuan is now 350 yuan; the "flat water version" of 5 cents banknotes issued in 72 once tore through the 500 yuan mark each; and the 60s short flow through the "back green dime butterfly coupon" market is even higher amazing, this back pattern for dark green juhua flowers, The dime note, which looks like a butterfly spreading its wings, is now worth 10,000 yuan per dollar, which means that if you have 100 of these dime notes, you are a millionaire, and its real circulation value is only 10 yuan. Antiques are not far from our lives, the old version of the renminbi is just a large area of paper money flowing through, in the past for a certain period of time, these things are not very eye-catching, but people at that time did not think of collecting these.

Although the old version of the renminbi is old, it is after all a currency that flows through, and there are very few counterfeits, after all, compared with the huge profits of the old currency, the sin of counterfeiting is still greater, and the difficulty of counterfeiting the old version of the renminbi is greater than that of the new version of the renminbi. After seeing a few old versions of the RMB, Tang Feng couldn't bear the excitement of regretting not collecting it earlier, and turned to other stalls, Liu Yue beside him pointed to a stall in front of him with a large group of people and said to Tang Feng: "Let's go over there and have a look." ”

"Well, good. Tang Feng and Liu Yue walked together to the stall, where the vendor was selling a bronze tiger to his potential customers. Said that it is a tiger, in fact, it is just shaped like a lying tiger, the shape of the tiger is very exaggerated, the tiger's mouth is a round mouth that protrudes forward and warps slightly, the tiger's mouth and the tiger's tail are connected with a handle, saying that the beam is a scientific name, not that people in the industry do not understand, it is equivalent to carrying the handle of this bronze tiger, the whole tiger body has no ornamentation, it is plain, and there are four false tiger claws attached to the body. Tang Feng asked Liu Yue with a smile: "Does Miss Liu know what this is for?"

Liu Yue glanced at him and said angrily: "Hooligans." ”

"Haha. Tang Feng couldn't help laughing, the academic name of this instrument shape is called Huzi, about the use of Huzi, there are various explanations in ancient literature, one is said to be a toilet, one is said to be a defecation device, so far, there is no conclusive conclusion. Whether you think that the tiger is the side of the toilet, or the side that thinks it is the side of the toilet, there are obvious flaws, you say it's a toilet, what can be washed in such a small tiger's mouth?

Although there is controversy, it is generally believed that this is a toilet, so Liu Yue will say that Tang Feng is a hooligan. This tiger is blue-purple in color, and there is no inscription to prove the age. But the vendor said: "Everyone, please see, this is a bronze tiger in the Spring and Autumn Period, cast by the lost wax method, typical of the Spring and Autumn Period. ”

Tang Feng nodded, the lost wax method is a casting process invented in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it has been used to this day. This casting method is to cast a mold with beeswax, and then wrap and press repeatedly with fine mud, leave a hole after compaction, and then burn and heat together with the mud with the wax mold, the wax model melts when heated, and flows out through the hole, leaving the cavity of the mud mold, and finally the copper water is poured into the mud mold to complete the casting process. The surface of the bronze cast by the lost wax method is smooth and high, and one of the cultural relics prohibited from being exhibited abroad in China, the famous Zeng Hou Yi bronze plate is cast using the lost wax method. It is really not simple to say that Zeng Hou Yi is an old boy, he is only the monarch of a small country in the early Warring States period, but among the cultural relics that are forbidden to be exhibited abroad, he alone accounts for three of them, and two are the bells of Zeng Hou Yi and the coffin outside the tomb of Zeng Hou Yi.

Tang Feng glanced at it from a distance, and felt that he could get started, so he said to the vendor, "Bring it to me." ”

With a beauty of Liu Yue's level by his side, Tang Feng raised his face, and the vendor immediately offered the tiger with both hands with a smile on his face, Tang Feng took the tiger and looked at it, the tiger was very heavy, and the whole body was covered with green patina, and it looked very old. Since it is a toilet, it is inconvenient to smell the smell, Tang Feng carefully observed the green rust on the tiger, generally speaking, the fake rust is floating on the surface, and it is easy to make the rust fall off by wiping it with vinegar or digging it with a fingernail.

Tang Feng turned his face and asked Liu Yue, "What do you think?"

Liu Yue asked rhetorically, "What do you think?"

Tang Feng whispered to Liu Yue: "I don't think this is the Spring and Autumn Period. ”

Liu Yue asked, "Then what period does Mr. Tang think it is?"

Tang Feng said lightly: "It's the beginning of the autumn period." ”
