Zeng Wenrou is not stupid, she has been studying for so long as a girl in Beipiao, and she has naturally learned a lot of self-protection behaviors.

There are all kinds of people in the black market, show them to these people, maybe some people forget their righteousness and run away with things, the alleys of this Pan Jiayuan are intricate, chasing these people who are familiar with the terrain, Zeng Wen really dare not try.

So she borrowed the donkey from the slope, planning to use the gang to find an expert to come over, maybe she was lucky enough to find a guide and take them into the ghost market.

Lotte also saw Zeng Gentle's thoughts, stood aside silently and didn't speak, don't really say, after a few minutes, the seller who left really brought back a person, this is a middle-aged man, about 40 years old, he is wearing a white silk Tang suit, with a string of jade beads on his wrist, and he has the bearing of a folk artist.

"Yo! Why did you call Boss Song? ”

"Boss Song is here, there is a family heirloom seller here, come and have a look."

The seller alone explained:

"See, this is Boss Song of Panjiayuan Jade Xuan, there is nothing he doesn't understand about antique jade, wait a while and slap your face, I'll see how you blow it."

"Come on, real gold is not afraid of fire." Zeng responded gently.

Boss Song walked over, first looked Lotte Zeng Gentle up and down, his brows furrowed slightly, and it seemed that he didn't believe that the two of them could take out anything real in their hands.

"Boss Song, these two said that they wanted to sell family heirlooms, you give a long look to discern it, these two little hairy children in the province are talking nonsense here."

As soon as Boss Song heard this, he also put on a righteous and awe-inspiring state, stepped forward and coughed lightly, and asked with a fist in a river and lake salute: "Two, I don't know where your things come from?" ”

As soon as Lotte saw this etiquette, he knew that this Boss Song was an old fritter in the rivers and lakes, although he was very dissatisfied in his heart, he was still polite on the surface, such an old fox, he should be more careful in getting along in the future.

Lotte also took a step forward, hugged his fists and returned a Jianghu salute, saying: "This is a family at a glance, the kid is flooded in this house, and there is no pestle, so he has to take the old objects at home to make an appearance." ”

Lotte said while taking the quaint box in Zeng Wen's hand, and when Boss Song on the other side heard Lotte say this, the previous contempt suddenly disappeared, but there was a feeling of shock.

If nothing else, just for the few black words he just said, there are a few young people who understand it now, this one will come with his mouth open, no need to guess, it must be the descendants of the old stubborn master, if you look at it this way, the authenticity of this object is uncertain.

Lotte handed over the wooden box, Boss Song did not reach out to take it, but took out a white handkerchief from his pocket, yes, he held the handkerchief in the palm of his hand, and did enough etiquette to prepare to receive things.

Seeing this, Lotte opened the wooden box, and the contents were instantly presented in front of everyone, and a group of sellers nearby hurriedly approached, and this time they almost didn't squeeze Boss Song into a stumble.

"What? It's a shame that you are still the master of eating in Panjiayuan, and you don't know the rules. Boss Song scolded sharply, which quieted down the scene, and none of the sellers dared to step forward again.

This gesture is enough, Lotte opened the wooden box, and his fingers flicked twice on the objects inside, which means this, my things are good when you give you long eyes, and if you come back when they are broken, this is a bad rule.

Everyone in the industry understands this, and Boss Song is naturally no exception, but Lotte has done all these rules, and Boss Song's heart is even more surprised, adhering to curiosity, he took out the snuff bottle in the wooden box through a handkerchief and held it in the palm of his hand to carefully identify it.

The people around didn't dare to come forward to make trouble, but they all wanted to see the appearance of this family heirloom, but they also politely watched outside, and a few people with a little vision had already begun to mumble after seeing it.

"It's a good thing, hey, this carving is really beautiful."

"Is it an old object?"

"I don't understand that."

Outside a circle of broken thoughts, Boss Song took out a strong flashlight from his pocket, carefully identified it against the snuffbox, nodded and said:

"It's an old thing, a good thing."

Holding the snuffbox in both hands and returning it to Lotte, Lotte took it and put it back in the wooden box, arched his hand and said:

"Thank you for giving me long eyes."

Boss Song smiled:

"It's been a long time since I've seen something old on this street, but young man, I'll tell you the truth, maybe I won't like it."

"You say."

Boss Song said while thinking about it: "Although this thing of yours is an old object, it feels like it has shortcomings, according to my experience, it should not be a real tribute, but, well, it is an imitation of the late Qing Dynasty, and the value is about 80,000, and it can't be sold so expensive." ”

Boss Song said this, the interest of the audience was gone, Zeng Gentle on the side was stunned, and suddenly thought of whether Lotte was true or false, and stepped forward to lie in Lotte's ear and asked:

"Is what you just took out fake?"

Lotte smiled slightly and did not answer, but looked at Boss Song solemnly and said:

"Boss Song, it's dark here, are you sure you can see it?"

"You shouldn't be wrong." Boss Song wasn't too sure, but what he gave him in his heart was a feeling of imitation.

Lotte smiled slightly and said, "Then how about we make a bet, this thing of mine, if it is not a tribute, I will give it to you." ”

"Oh, that's embarrassing." Boss Song suddenly had a smile on his face.

Lotte hurriedly explained: "Don't worry about me first, the light is dark here, what if you get an eye." ”

"This ......" Boss Song's research on antiques and jade is quite deep, but no matter how deep it is, there is no thorough research by experts, this bet is about to come out, he really doesn't dare to accept it, think about it again and again, anyway, it's all old things, put his hand in his pocket, took out a business card and handed it to Lotte and said:

"Little brother, if you have time, you can go and sit here tonight, maybe we can talk about the pestle (money)."

Boss Song meant that he was going to accept this thing, but when he handed over this business card, it changed his taste, and it seemed to outsiders that he would talk about it later, and it would be over tonight.

Ke Lotian took the business card and looked at it, but immediately saw the difference, this business card is not the contact information of Boss Song, nor is it the introduction of his store address, but a yellow one, with three words on it, "entry card", in addition, there is a line of words written on the back of the business card, Qingxin Teahouse.

Boss Song looked at Lotte with a smile, and Lotte instantly came back to his senses, which meant that he got the ghost market pass.

Lotte hurriedly bowed, "Thank you, Boss Song." ”

Boss Song is also an understanding person, so he naturally saw the purpose of Lotte's coming tonight, and stretched out his hand to lead and said, "Come on, go sit down." ”

The two were about to leave while talking, and the onlookers on the side also saw that there was no drama to watch, so they each went back to the stall to look at the stall.

Zeng asked with a puzzled face: "Alas, this is leaving?" ”

Lotte looked back and smiled: "If you don't leave, stay for breakfast, forget the purpose of tonight, and leave." ”

Zeng Gentle eyes were stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he was going to the ghost market, it seemed that this Boss Song was willing to be this guide, so he hurriedly picked up the bag and chased after him.

Boss Song actually guessed the purpose of Lotte, the seller who came to the black market with real things, most of them was to enter the ghost market and sell it at a high price, if it was a layman, it would be no problem for Boss Song to intercept it halfway, but the young man in front of him was talking black words when he opened and closed his mouth, and no one was stupid in the circle, so Boss Song pushed the boat down the river to do a favor, but he still reminded him:

"Little brother, don't blame me for not reminding you, you thing, I shouldn't have been eye-catching, if it's really a copy when you get to the place, you spilled your words, but how can you take it back?"

"The people who eat and put aside their thoughts (Jianghu people) talk with a spit and a nail." Lotte said.

"Oh ha." Boss Song laughed for a while, and then said: "Don't blame me for bullying you as a child, if it's really like what I said, I took 80,000 yuan from you, and I didn't bully you." ”

To be honest, Lotte thought that this Boss Song was an old fox, and just now he thought that he was not real, but now it seems that this person is okay, although the real value of this thing is about 100,000, and 80,000 is low but it is also within the scope of understanding.

It's just that Lotte has his own ideas and his own calculations, of course he won't let Boss Song succeed, laughing and playing haha as a response, the three of them walked through the crowded and crowded area, and when they walked to the front of the Qingxin Teahouse, Lotte wanted to vomit blood, why, isn't this the place where Li Liuzhi rests!

This uncle took them to the ghost market, did not take them to the entrance, and found an excuse to enter the door, this Lotte and the two fooled, and it took more than 30 minutes to find the main entrance in the ghost market, why bother!

Zeng Wenrou saw that the place she was going to was this teahouse, her face also darkened, pouting and looking unhappy, as if she was complaining to herself, why did she follow Lotte to the market in the first place, how good it would be to follow the master directly, it was not worth it to go around the wrong road.

Helpless, I endured it with dissatisfaction in my heart, who let Lotte accept the trial of the master, followed Boss Song into the first floor of the teahouse, and said hello to the owner of the teahouse first.

"Old tea, bring you someone, is the upstairs room open?"

"It's on, the singers and performers are here, so it's up to you." The teahouse owner responded.

Boss Song arched his hand and said:

"Let's go, go upstairs and drink tea while watching the play."

As long as you are not a fool, you can hear the meaning contained in these words, the three of them walked directly up the stairs, the interior decoration of this teahouse has an obvious antique meaning, no matter how you look at it, it is the layout of the teahouse in the era of the Qing Dynasty.

On the second floor, this is a layout with national characteristics on the first floor, the round stool of the Eight Immortals table, around half a circle, and a stage in the middle, which is full of old people, sitting together in twos and pounds chatting and drinking tea, this scene looks basically the same as the teahouse in the film and television drama.

Standing at the top of this staircase, a waiter stopped Lotte and asked:

"This brother, the second floor of our store only accepts regular customers, do you have tickets?"

Lotte then remembered the business card that Boss Song gave him, took it out, handed it to the waiter and asked, "Is this okay?" ”

The waiter took it and glanced at it, turned around and shouted loudly: "One of the performers, come out to receive it." ”

The waiter's words fell, and the eyes of everyone on the second floor of the teahouse fell on the staircase.
