Liulichang is different from Panjiayuan, the whole street is full of cultural flavor, antique buildings, and most of the shops are bookstores, galleries and shops that operate the four treasures of the study. At the same time www.biquge.info there are many well-known time-honored brands.

In the past, when Sun Zhongyuan was in school, there were still some guerrilla stalls in Liuli Factory, but this time he came, he didn't find any of them.

However, there are some "standing streets".

Soon after Sun Zhongyuan walked into the street, a young woman with a good temperament and wearing a business suit stepped forward, don't get me wrong, because what people asked was:

"Sir, do you want to buy paintings?"

It turned out to be an introduction to the calligraphy and painting business.

Sun Zhongyuan waved his hand, and was dragged by others, so there was no fun to hang out.

This glaze factory got its name because in the Yuan Dynasty, a factory was built here to burn glaze. During the Ming Dynasty, this place was still very deserted. The rise was during the Qianlong period, when the Qianlong Emperor repaired the four libraries, gathered a lot of literati for a time, and also set up a lot of bookstores. At the same time, there are also many people who enter Beijing to take the exam, and they also begin to gather here before and after the exam.

After a long time, cultural and antiques were also bought and sold here, and finally a long street flourished.

During the period of the Republic of China, Liulichang was already famous, at that time, how could there be any Panjiayuan?

Today, the reputation of Liulichang is still undiminished, and the project is mainly calligraphy and painting, but because of its own characteristics, the liveliness cannot catch up with Panjiayuan.

Sun Zhong originally avoided those well-known big stores, but instead of entering a small shop that looked cramped, he entered a small shop that was not too big or small.

The plaque on the door of the store happened to be not there, but the traces of the hanging could still be seen, perhaps because the plaque was old and wanted to be replaced, because Sun Zhongyuan did not know the name of the store.

This time I went in, and the inside was also antique, completely according to the old furnishings, all antique furnishings and furniture. There's even an old charcoal stove. Of course, it's not cold yet, no.

There is a counter in the store, there are many treasures, a young man saw Sun Zhongyuan come in, stepped forward to greet him, Sun Zhongyuan said to see for himself, he smiled and nodded, not far behind.

On the easternmost side of the store, there is a reception area, a table of eight immortals, with two people sitting on both sides and drinking tea.

One of them looked like a boss in a Tang costume, a man of fifty or sixty years old, with a pair of glasses, and his eyebrows and eyes were still upright, but the Mediterranean hairstyle was a little ugly. The guest was a flat-haired man, about forty years old, with a somewhat honest face, but quite well-dressed.

The boss of the Mediterranean hairstyle was spraying at this guest at this time: "You don't know, I have been visiting stalls since the eighties, and there are many things that have passed my eyes, such as Song Wuyao and Yuan Qinghua." The kiln mouths of the Ming and Qing dynasties, that is simply everywhere, you wander around ten stalls, and eight of them can bring out a few pieces!"

The flat-headed guest took a sip of tea, smiled and nodded, noncommittal.

"As far as you want, the blue and white flowers of Jiajing and Wanli, at that time, how much was a large piece? Fifty! I still have to bargain!" The boss waved his hand, "But now, it's difficult! This glass factory sells calligraphy and paintings everywhere, and there are not many good porcelain." But if you go to Panjiayuan, it's a fake everywhere!"

In this shop, there are indeed a lot of things, including calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, and some jade miscellaneous. Sun Zhongyuan also came in because of this, a pure calligraphy and painting shop, and it was a bit monotonous to shop.

Listening to the boss's meaning, he didn't find anything for the guests. After listening to the shopkeeper, the flat-headed guest pointed to the teapot, "This pot of oolong, I drank a sweat and was tired, so I won't talk much." ”

Isn't it, what's the point of drinking tea here without buying anything?

The boss sent the guests away, one after the other, a person came in with something, just the boss just sent the guests away, and was still standing at the door, a glance at the person who came with a newspaper wrapped in something under his armpit, and asked with a smile, "Is there something good to sell?"

This antique shop is not only out, but also entered. There are naturally many channels for purchase, and this is one of them.

This person is dressed very plainly, and he is also a middle-aged man, but he looks a little frizzy, and he is about to open the newspaper when he stands in front of the boss, "Or?"

"We're not busy, let's come over here. The boss led the middle-aged man to the counter, and when he got to the back of the counter, he reached out and asked the person to show something.

Sun Zhongyuan had already taken a general look at it at this time, and there were really a lot of old things in this store, but most of them were ordinary products, and they were not very interested. Then again, the really good stuff doesn't have to be put on the table. Just like the one who left just now, it is a regular customer, and some things will only be taken out when a regular customer comes.

Sun Zhongyuan also walked to the counter casually, two or three meters apart, looking down at the things in the counter, and at the same time taking a look at what this middle-aged man was selling.

The middle-aged man dismantled the newspaper, revealing a painting. It's not packed in a box, it's just rolled up, with some yellowing spots on the back, the shaft head is old, and the old material is old.

As soon as the painting was unfolded, Sun Zhongyuan's eyes were attracted by the first half of the painting.

Although it is on paper, this painting can reach the Ming Dynasty, the pen and ink are also good, green landscapes, distant mountains and near water, and pavilions.

This old silk used for framing, the mounting is also fine, maybe it is the handwriting of a famous artist.

The shopkeeper's eyes widened as well, and he continued to pull down. But when the painting was completely opened, he was discouraged. At the bottom of this painting, there are three rotten holes, two small ones and one large one, and the big hole is more than ten centimeters in diameter.

The boss quickly rolled up the painting and said with a smile, "This painting looks like an old thing, but my eyesight is not good, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pay a lot of money." ”

The sophisticated businessman in the antique shop, no matter how ugly the meaning, can say it in a nice way. The meaning of this sentence is, in fact, simply put, four words: don't accept it, let's go!

But this middle-aged man was not a person in the industry at first glance, and he said, "It is said that Liulichang knows a lot about calligraphy and painting! Since you say it is an old thing, then it is good! I just turned it out of my home, and I thought it was an old painting, and it was a pity to sell it to the collectors. ”

As soon as he heard this, the shopkeeper's face changed. This middle-aged man is too real! To tell the truth, there has to be a trade-off, you said that it was a pity to sell to the collectors, so they were sent to the store, isn't this a curse?

However, the shopkeeper's complexion soon softened, and his eyes rolled down slightly, "If you really want to sell, it's not that I can't accept it, but the maximum can only be this amount!"

With that, he bent his right thumb and index finger together and raised the remaining three fingers.

Sun Zhongyuan couldn't interject at this time, and completely became a spectator. He saw it out, and the shopkeeper originally wanted to blast people away, but in an instant, he changed his mind.
