Chapter 36: The Antique Market (1)

"Don't worry, don't worry, you wait for me to finish speaking......"

Seeing that Fang Yi, who had always been very indifferent, was anxious, Man Jun couldn't help laughing, this is right, the young man who is not yet twenty years old looks calm like a forty or fifty-year-old person, Man Jun has always been a little unable to see through Fang Yi, and it is not until this moment that he can be regarded as seeing Fang Yi's young side.

"Brother Man, I'm not in a hurry......"

Fang Yi smiled bitterly and said: "I started drawing talismans at the age of five, and I couldn't make a talisman in one breath until I was fifteen years old, this is the same as practicing, you see that I draw easily, in fact, it is five minutes on the stage, and ten years of work off the stage......"

Fang Yi still didn't say a word, that is, if you want to succeed in making a talisman, you still need to have a most basic condition, and this condition is that the person who makes the talisman must be a master of the inner family who cultivates the true qi, without this prerequisite, then there is no way to make a dao talisman containing spiritual power.

"Brother Fang, then you said that I would take the money outside, can I buy this kind of talisman?" asked Man Jun with a smile on his face.

"I guess I can't buy ......"

Fang Yi shook his head and said, "If you go to the Heavenly Blessed Land of the Great Dao Family, you may be able to ask for it, but it's not easy to say, because my master said that there are fewer and fewer people who know how to make zuò talismans, and some Dao Sects have even broken their inheritance......

Since he is a Taoist, Fang Yi still knows a lot about several sects of Taoism, and there are five sects of modern Taoism, namely Zhengyi, Quanzhen Dao, Zhendao, Taiyi and Jingming Dao, each with different inheritances.

However, one thing in common is that these Taoist sects are very involved with the world, and there are fewer and fewer people who can calm down and study the Taoist art of moral asceticism, and the old Taoist priest once told Fang Yi that with his current understanding of the Taoist scriptures, it is absolutely no problem to become the head of a Dao sect.

"Isn't that right, Brother Fang, I can't buy this talisman of yours even if I have money, it can be regarded as very precious, then you live with me, how can I be embarrassed to collect rent?"

"Yes, Brother Man, then I won't mention the rent......"

Hearing Manjun's words, Fang Yi understood it, but compared with the rent, he didn't know who was at a loss and who took advantage, because no matter what Buddhism and Taoism had, there was a saying, that is, if you believe, if you don't believe, you won't, so in the eyes of the world, it can be said that it is worth a thousand gold, or it can be said to be worthless.

"Hey, I said you two, you always talk about money when you go around here, it's not vulgar?"

Seeing that the conversation between the two finally came to an end, the fat man picked up his wine glass and said, "Come, let's go again, if we practice in Chaotian Palace in the future, Brother Man, you must take care of it more......"

The fat man followed the Manchu army to his shop in Chaotian Palace, and saw many people greeting Manchu Jun along the way, knowing that his popularity was good, and his brothers wanted to gain a foothold in Chaotian Palace, and they couldn't say that they would have to be promoted by the boss Man.

"Little fat man, you're saying the wrong thing......"

After hearing the fat man's words, Man Jun said with a smile: "Since you all call your brother, then you are all my old man's brothers, and if your brother doesn't take care of it, I will punish you for a glass ......of wine today."

"What's the penalty for one glass? At least three glasses of fine......" The fat man was worried that he couldn't find a reason to drink a few more glasses, so he drank three glasses in a row, and smacked his mouth, as if he regretted not saying that he would be fined five glasses.

"I can see it, you kid just want to mix wine and drink?" Seeing the fat man's appearance, Man Jun laughed loudly and said: "This is the bottle of Moutai in 82, but I still have some new wine, I don't dare to say anything else today, Moutai is enough!"

can mix in the antique shop for so many years, and earn a lot of net worth, Manjun is still very good, just like now, he is a small boss with a net worth of millions, and he can drink and chat with a few penniless poor boys shirtless, which is not something ordinary people can do.

Everyone was very happy to drink this wine in the evening, so they basically drank too much, and in the end, except for Fang Yi, the three brothers suddenly slipped under the table, and Fang Yi carried them into the house one by one and threw them on the bed.

"You're going to live here from now on?"

Lying on the newly bought bed, Fang Yi rarely did not meditate and practice, but stared at the snow-white ceiling, his mind was full of thoughts, it was only three or five days after going down the mountain, and the things and psychological impact that Fang Yi encountered were much stronger than those that he had been on the mountain for more than ten years.

"Do you want to give yourself a hexagram?" A thought popped up in Fang Yi's mind, but then he shook his head, except that the hexagram is not counted as oneself, this life and death are rich and noble, as long as he obeys the will of heaven.

------------------------------

I didn't know when I fell asleep, but at five o'clock in the morning, Fang Yi still opened his eyes on time, got up and walked to the balcony, there was only one room on the third floor, and the rest was a large platform, but it was just right for Fang Yi to practice on it.

The sun rose in the east and the purple qi came from the east, and after absorbing the first wisp of purple qi from the east in the early morning, Fang Yi only felt refreshed, especially in the early morning of the city, which gave him a completely different experience, which was a breath of life that he could not experience on the mountain.

After Fang Yi went to the kitchen to boil a pot of millet porridge, Man Jun and the others also woke up, drinking porridge with pickles, Man Jun was so cool in his heart, he would be thinking about whether to give Fang Yi some salary or something, this service is even better than a nanny.

Of course, Boss Man didn't know that Fang Yi had been in charge of three meals a day in the Taoist temple since he was six years old, and he had long been accustomed to doing these jobs, not to mention any hard work.

"Let's go, brothers, I'll take you to the antique market first......

After breakfast, Man Jun comfortably lit a cigarette and said, "I'll take you to the market management office when you go back, and you can set up a stall in the market after paying a month's rent for a bunk......

"Brother Man, we don't know what to sell yet, and we started setting up stalls so soon?"

After hearing Manjun's words, Fang Yi and the three brothers were a little dumbfounded, although they had already defined their business as cultural toys, but these brothers hadn't even figured out what was in them, what was this stall selling?

"You don't have to worry about this, Brother Man has thought it out for you......" Man Jun smiled and waved his hand, stood up and said: "Let's go, first take you to familiarize yourself with the market, and see if you can occupy a better position to ......"

The third little brother, who was a little ignorant by the Manchu army, could only follow behind the Manchu army and walked out of the courtyard gate in the direction of the Heavenly Palace.

Chaotian Palace, located in Jinling Water West Gate in Yecheng Mountain, is the highest existing building grade in the south of the Yangtze River, the largest area, the most complete preservation of the ancient building complex, the name of Chaotian Palace, the Ming Dynasty Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict to give the imperial gift, take the meaning of "worship to the sky", "to see the Son of Heaven", at the end of the seventies of the last century changed to Jinling Museum.

Before approaching Yecheng Mountain, you can see the majestic palace with red walls and blue tiles, and when you get closer, the building complex of more than 70,000 square meters is even more imposing.

"Obediently, such a large piece of land is an antique market?"

Although the family moved to Jinling, it was after the Third Artillery left the countryside as a soldier, so he was not very familiar with Jinling.

"Three cannons, don't you know?" After hearing the words of the three cannons, the fat man said with a disdainful face: "Inside is the Jinling Museum, and the antique market is outside, you kid still says that he is from Jinling......"

The fat man will be very good, but he also forgot that when he came the day before yesterday, he rushed straight to the museum, and he didn't even see the words of Jinling Museum on his head, and he shouted "This antique market boss" in his mouth, which is not an ordinary shame.

"I haven't been here again......" San Cannon muttered.

"Let's go to the market ......"

With a wave of his hand, the Manchu army led a few people to a street outside the gate of the museum, and said: "This Chaotian Palace was changed to a museum in seven or eight years, but our antique market has been for a long time, from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the present, it has been more than 100 years......"

The Manchu army is not bragging, Chaotian Palace antique market is a banner in the field of collectibles in Jinling and even the whole country, and Beijing Panjiayuan Liuli Factory is the same time-honored brand, its brand origin can be traced back to the middle and late Qing Dynasty, so far it really has a history of more than 100 years.

"By the way, the old curator of the Jinling Museum is Sun Lao......" Man Jun pointed to the Jinling Museum and said: "When Sun Lao was the curator, I was still practicing stalls outside, Fang Yi, you have time to contact Sun Lao, if you want to do this, it's best to have a backer......

Manjun's words are not untargeted, as long as Sun Lianda says a word, saying that Fang Yi is his disciple, he doesn't dare to say it elsewhere, but in the realm of Jinling, absolutely no one dares to take a fake to pit Fang Yi.

"It's just a meeting in Pingshui, where can Sun Lao look at me......" Fang Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this, he only knew what status Sun Lianda had in the antique shop when he was drinking and chatting with Manjun yesterday.

"It's hard to say, I think Sun Lao likes you very much......" Man Jun smiled and said, "Let's go, there's a market over there, and my store is also in it......"

"Brother Man, isn't this place that big?"

After entering the antique market, Fang Yi roughly counted the twenty or thirty shops on both sides, which was not as good as the stalls on both sides of the street, and most of the people who came and went were wandering around the stalls, and few of them entered the shop.

"Who's to say it's not......"

After hearing Fang Yi's words, Man Jun nodded and said: "The management here is a bit chaotic, I heard that this antique market may be moved away in the future, I don't know what the specific situation is, but it shouldn't be able to move in three or five years......"

As an old man in the antique market, the Manchu army is still very familiar with the current situation of the Chaotian Palace antique market, a few years ago it was fine, but in recent years, after the collection of antiques has become hot, some people have begun to resell fakes and fakes, making the whole market a miasma, and the market management department is even less supervised.

It may take a hundred years to build a reputation, but three days may be enough to destroy the reputation, and the old players and collectors in the past rarely come to Chaotian Palace to pick up leaks, and tourists rarely go to the shop to buy things, such as the Manchu army's shop, so they can only do some business as regular customers.

"Brother Man, is it so early today?"

"Brother Man, come, smoke a cigarette, these brothers are looking at it......"

The popularity of the Manchu army is really good, and as soon as they took Fang Yi and a few of them into the market, the few people who got up early to set up stalls at the gate of the market greeted each other.

In the antique shop, there are also levels, for example, if the Manchu army can afford to open a shop in the antique market, it belongs to the antique dealers, and the grade of these people who practice stalls is naturally a lot lower.

"These are my little brothers, and they will also eat here in the future, you are not allowed to bully them......" Man Jun greeted those people with a smile, and introduced Brother Fang Yi by the way.

"Where can it, Brother Man, your brother is our brother......" In the antique market, there are some people who are messing around, plus beautiful words don't cost money anyway, and after a few words, they are familiar like old friends.
