Chapter 404: It's a Baby!
………… At three o'clock in the morning, when the lights of thousands of homes were dim and countless people were immersed in sleep, the huge Panjiayuan ghost market was full of people one after another.
Under the dim street lamps, people can clearly see the baggage Zhai who is doing business on the side of the road, as well as many Tibetan friends who whisper to each other.
No one made a loud noise, people came quietly, and walked quietly, although the whole market was lively, but it seemed to be a strange ghost, coupled with the flickering, light and dark flashlight lights, Jiang Tingting and Zhuang Wen, who saw this scene for the first time, were really a little scared. The two hugged Liu Dong and Li Yuncong's arms tightly, looking frightened and excited, and looking around with curiosity.
And seeing that the two of them didn't notice their layout, Li Yuncong was also a little happy in his heart.
However, Liu Dong, who was full of nephrite warm fragrance, was not so excited, but felt a little distressed in his heart, because the soft touch of Jiang Tingting's bumpy body and arms, as well as the lingering virgin fragrance on the tip of his nose, made Liu Dong's dantian involuntarily burst out of an evil fire, which burned more and more, making him feel an urge to push Jiang Tingting down regardless of a single qiē in his heart.
"Could it be that what my cheap master said is true, I practice Huan-Xi Zen, and I still have a deep pulse?" But even if it was true, at this moment he could only suppress the burning desire in his heart.
"Liu Dong, what's wrong with you, are you okay?" Sensing Liu Dong's increasingly heavy breathing, Jiang Tingting couldn't help but care.
"It's okay!" As he spoke, Liu Dong's voice was hoarse.
Thankfully, the lights were dim. Jiang Tingting didn't notice the abnormality on Liu Dong's face. Otherwise, you will definitely find at this moment in addition to the changes in the snort. Liu Dong's eyes also began to appear red bloodshots, which looked hideous.
In order to avoid making mistakes, Liu Dong could only pull his arm out of Jiang Tingting's arms, and then forced himself to look at the antiques on the surrounding stalls.
As his attention shifted, the abnormality in his body was slightly suppressed, and gradually Liu Dong's expression became normal. Although he was still a little impulsive, he was already within the scope of Liu Dong's will.
And as Liu Dong's attention shifted, he really found a good thing. Immediately walked briskly over. Then squatted down, and seeing him like this, Jiang Tingting and the three naturally followed.
Compared with the second daughter's confusion about Liu Dong's behavior, Li Yuncong naturally knew what he wanted to do, to be honest, he really had some expectations at the moment, especially after experiencing the scene yesterday morning, he also understood that his brother, the level of treasure appreciation was beyond the ordinary, far more than comparable.
The ghost market has the rules of the ghost market, after Liu Dong squatted down. Baozhai who was sitting on the horse at the back of the stall just looked at him for a while, and then focused his attention on Jiang Tingting and Zhuang Wen, who were standing behind Liu Dong. Although the street lights are not too bright, the graceful demeanor of the two women, and the beautiful faces can still be seen vaguely, which can naturally attract the eyes of the middle-aged burdened man who is also a man, especially Jiang Tingting, a goddess-level character, who is the focus of people's attention wherever she goes.
But Liu Dong didn't care about this, at this moment his eyes were all on the stall in front of him, which was no more than two meters long and only one meter wide.
However, the stall is small, but there are a lot of things on the stall, bottles and cans are filled with most of the stall, and there are also piles of quaint swords that can be vaguely distinguished on the left side of the entire stall, but except for a few in good condition, the rest are strictly rusted, and there is no collection value at all.
Moreover, the sword collection is still a niche, and the value of the swords in good condition on the market is not too high, even if it is a bronze sword in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, as long as it is not the level of the thousand-year-old stainless and unbent 'Wu Wangfu Cha Sword', the current market price is only 10,000 yuan.
Therefore, for these rusted swords, the middle-aged burden Zhai did not pay much attention to it, and they were piled up on the side, and even many of them rolled to the ground.
At this time, Liu Dong didn't play any tricks, he directly rummaged through the pile of swords, and then held a knife about three feet six inches long, which could vaguely be seen to be a knife, but I didn't know what was painted on it, it was dirty, and the ashes were very inconspicuous.
After holding the long knife in his hand, Liu Dong looked at it briefly, and then stretched out his right hand, "Boss, will you take a hand?"
"Hehe, I didn't expect the little brother to be young, but he is a regular customer!"
In fact, the hand in the antique shop is to bargain, the rules handed down by the elders, in the past, pay attention to the wealth is not exposed, the transaction price of an object, the buyer and the seller are to keep it secret, so this method of negotiating the price was invented. However, in ancient times, people wore clothes with large sleeves, and when they used gestures to negotiate the price, the sleeves could cover the hands and outsiders could not see them at all, but now it is just a formality for the situation, that is, using this method to negotiate the price. Those who have a heart can still see one or two from gestures.
After the middle-aged boss said politely, he stretched out his right hand, only to see that he first stretched out five fingers, then clasped his thumb and index finger, and then clenched it into a fist.
Seeing this, Liu Dong shook his head, and his right hand also stretched out five fingers, and then the thumb, index finger and middle finger were clasped together, and then clenched into a fist.
"Xiaodong, what are you doing here?" Jiang Tingting, who was standing behind, asked quietly.
Noticing Zhuang Wen's equally curious gaze, Li Yuncong looked a little proud, and also lowered his voice and said: "The two of them are negotiating the price, these gestures are the rules of the ghost market in the antique shop, just now the gesture of the boss represents that the knife in Xiaodong's hand is sold for five thousand, and Xiaodong's gesture means that he only sells five hundred!"
"How do you know this?" Zhuang Wen said in surprise.
"Hehe, I followed my second grandfather a few times ago a few times, and the old man sued me!" Li Yuncong said proudly.
"So this ghost market is simply the so-called antique night market?"
"Of course ......!" Li Yuncong, who was just about to nod his head in agreement, suddenly noticed that something was wrong in the speaker's tone, and the original pride in his heart immediately disappeared, turned his head to look at Miss Jiang's tense face, and immediately became nervous in his heart, and said with a flattering face, "Tingting, you look at the ghost market and look at how crazy people you are, it's not worse than going to the ghost house to explore, and you can go shopping at any time, killing two birds with ......one stone!"
"No, not this time, there is no terrifying atmosphere here!" Before Li Yuncong could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Tingting.
"That's it, this time it's just an appetizer, we're going to go to the haunted house in a few days, and you have to go too!" Zhuang Wen's temperament is also a little arrogant, and Jiang Tingting's personality is somewhat similar, so the two quickly became close friends after they met.
Moreover, as a child of a rich family, he has not worried about food, drink, or work since he was a child, so like most children of the powerful, he likes to look for excitement, and compared with boys, girls are more interested in ghosts.
Looking at the exciting discussion at the moment, whether to go to No. 81 Chaonei Street first, or No. 33 Xidan Xiaoshihu Hutong, or Hufang Qiaohuguang Hall!
At this time, Liu Dong also negotiated the price with the boss, and bought the dusty treasure knife in his hand for 750 yuan.
"What's wrong? Wasn't it okay just now?" Looking at Li Yuncong's sad face, Liu Dong said in surprise.
But soon he understood what was going on from the conversation between Jiang Tingting and Zhuang Wen, and immediately patted Li Yuncong's shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang is not so easy to pass, and there are no ghosts in the time, these so-called ghost mansions are just mediocre rumors." When the time comes, we will go together, and the crowds will give you courage!"
"It seems that this is the only way!" Li Yuncong said in frustration. If Jiang Tingting was the only one who had this idea, then he could still shirk it, but with Zhuang Wen with him, he would no longer be able to escape.
"Xiaodong, when the time comes, you have to 'sacrifice your life to accompany the gentleman', but don't come to the end of the 'stumbling'!"
"Don't worry!" Liu Dong nodded, with his understanding of Jiang Tingting, unless he left Beijing immediately, he would not be able to get off this trip sooner or later.
Moreover, he is a master of the arts, even if he goes to the ghost house, he is not much afraid in his heart, and even has a little excitement in the face of the unknown.
"Hey, Liu Dong, have you bought your things?" At this time, Zhuang Wen, who was discussing with each other excitedly, also noticed that Liu Dong, who was chatting with Li Yuncong with a dirty long knife in his hand at the moment.
"Well, let's go!" Liu Dong nodded.
"Liu Dong, what kind of thing did you buy, dirty, black and tattered, give it to Miss Ben, Miss Ben is disgusted!" After frowning and glancing at the knife-like object in Liu Dong's hand, Jiang Tingting frowned and said.
Noticing the curious or puzzled looks on the faces of the three of them, Liu Dong smiled, "Don't look at this knife now, when I clean it up, you will understand what kind of treasure this is!"
"It's still mysterious, I'll take a look!" Without saying anything, Miss Jiang snatched the knife-like object in Liu Dong's hand, and then the two girls got together and looked at it.
"Xiaodong, is this knife really a treasure?" Among the four people, Li Yuncong has the best understanding of Liu Dong's ability to recognize treasures, but this knife is also too inconspicuous, not only is it not as sharp as the knife, but the entire surface is pitted, covered with mud, and there are small cracks in many places, and the whole thing looks like a piece of burnt black rotten wood. Even if Li Yuncong had confidence in Liu Dong, he couldn't associate this rotten wood-like thing with the treasure knife.
"You'll know when the time comes!" smiled, Liu Dong didn't explain much, and when he cleaned up this treasure, the facts were more useful than a hundred words of corroboration. (To be continued......)
