Guo Hai said that the flower and bird market, in fact, is the Huakang market in Tianzhong City, Huakang market on the health road, that is, near Jingyu Square, is not far away, to the Huakang market, Chen Ran only to know that the Huakang market is also a farmers' market, divided into several areas, there are vegetable area, there are fruit area, and pet area, the largest is the flower and tree sales area.

Now it is the holiday time, although it is only eight o'clock in the morning, but the market is already full of people, and there are constantly trucks pulling vegetables or flowers into the market, which also causes the street to be crowded, Chen Ran and Guo Hai can only squeeze through from the side.

In the sales area of flowers and trees, there are indeed two or three antique shops, one sells calligraphy and paintings, the other sells weapons, and the other is some stone carving, root carving, or wood carving.

In the calligraphy and painting shop, Chen Ran also went in to take a look, there are quite a lot of paintings in the store, but most of them are mainly modern paintings, there are few ancient paintings, even if there are copying, or completely modern handicrafts, in the antique collection, calligraphy and painting are undoubtedly the most difficult to preserve, and the shopkeeper naturally cannot hang the precious ancient paintings in the store.

Turning around twice in the Huakang market, Chen Ran found the antique area, at a glance, first there is an antique street, and then there is a small courtyard, the yard seems to be open antique shops, compared to the outside of the vegetable area or the flower and wood area, the antique area is much more pedestrians, even overcrowded, but this is because people who come to Huakang Market to buy vegetables, or buy flowers and trees, it is impossible to come early in the morning, and the antique area is different, playing antiques, it is normal to get up early in the morning and be greedy, especially in many places, there is a morning market.

The morning market is a written statement, also known as the ghost market in the past, the ghost market was formed before the liberation, is the general name of the illegal antique trading market, the ghost market sounds terrifying, in fact, it is very simple, in order to escape the urban management, industry and commerce, cultural relics bureau, cultural inspection team to crack down, this illegal antique trading market will only appear in the morning and evening. As soon as the customary trading hours, mostly at dusk or late in the evening, after law enforcement had left work, unsolicited vendors came out of the streets, occupied the open spaces on both sides of the streets, laid down burlap bags or snakeskin bags, and pulled some thrift out of them and set up their stalls.

This is the traditional ghost market, the current ghost market is not this flavor for a long time, but it still retains a lot of rules, the start time of the ghost market is not necessarily, some places start at more than three o'clock in the morning, generally end at seven or eight o'clock, but in some places, it is normal until ** o'clock.

Seeing so many people in the antique city, Chen Ran guessed that the Huakang antique market had also formed a ghost market, which immediately made him interested, and he had never visited a ghost market.

As soon as you enter the antique area, it is lively all of a sudden, but it is only the stalls in the small courtyard of the antique area, like the regular storefronts of an antique street that passes through the small courtyard, but there are many visitors.

In fact, the reason for this is also very simple, now early in the morning to the antique market to visit the ghost market, there are roughly three kinds of people, one is the antique dealer, the second is the antique collector, they have a good eye, the time to shoot, the third is the antique lovers, they do not buy antiques, do not chat, just to visit the antique ghost market as a kind of fun, as a hobby of life.

As for tourists, it is rarer.

There are a lot of stall-style shops on the ground of the small courtyard in the antique area, some of the nearby people also bring tables and the like, some are just a layer of cloth towels and the like, and even put things directly on the ground, whether it is a finished jadeite product or something else, it is dazzling, it can be said that there is everything.

Chen Ran didn't have any goals, just shuttled with the flow of people, Guo Hai followed Chen Ran to look left and right, every time he encountered a lively place, he would go to join in the fun, Chen Ran confessed that he could only watch and never make a move, and then he didn't care about him anymore.

In front of each stall, Chen Ran will stop to observe, to say that the most sold stalls are jade pendants or bracelets, these jade objects are fooling people at a glance, not to mention how the carvers are, basically they are carved out of fake jade, of course, such things are naturally very cheap, and the price can be won for ten yuan, and only tourists will buy them.

In addition to jade, the most are ceramics, which are placed everywhere on the rows of stalls.

Chen Ran just wandered around at will, only when he saw something interesting, he would squat in front of the stall, ask, touch, ordinary objects, crude objects that he knew at a glance, these things he didn't even have the mind to touch, only looked at those that looked fine, and if he couldn't tell the truth from the fake with his eyesight, he would use the energy aperture to detect it, but there were not many such opportunities, although this ghost market was lively, but there were not many real things.

At this moment, Chen Ran was attracted by a stall, in fact, this stall not only attracted him, in addition to him, there were many people who would stop and take a look when passing by, but most of them just asked, and then shook their heads and left, there were many people who were interested, but very few really bought.

This stall sells a very strange thing, although it is rare, but everyone has heard of it, that is, the longevity lock.

The longevity lock is a unique ornament of the Chinese people, and even overseas, as long as it is in an area where Chinese gather, this ornament can be seen. This may be the meaning of the longevity lock.

The longevity lock is also called the "name lock". It is a kind of ornament hanging on the neck of children in the Ming and Qing dynasties, according to superstition, as long as this ornament is hung, not only for decoration, but also for the meaning of warding off evil spirits and blessings, so many children from birth, they have hung this ornament, and have been hanging until adulthood.

In China, the custom of wearing longevity locks is very widespread. In ancient times, from the sons of princes and nobles to the sons and daughters of the common people, they would wear longevity locks after birth. This can be evidenced by its material, the selection of materials for longevity locks is very extensive, valuable materials include gold, silver, ivory, jade, coral, tortoiseshell, etc., ordinary copper, iron, and even wood, stone, etc., can be used to make zuò.

On this stall, it is roughly estimated that there are at least two or three hundred longevity locks, including gold, silver, copper, jade, ivory, wood carving, stone carving, coconut skin carving, etc., which look extremely spectacular.

However, obviously, if this thing is placed in the downtown area, it will definitely attract the attention of many children and women, but in this antique market, it is still the time of the ghost market, although it can also attract people, but not many people actually buy it.

After all, at this time, there are still many people in Taobao who turn around in the ghost market, and the long-life lock in front of him, the stall owner has collected so much, and he must have studied it very much, no matter which material is carved into it, it will not be sold cheaply, and there is no leakage to pick up, and there are really not many people who know how to live with the lock.

Chen Ran was not interested in the longevity lock, he was just interested in the longevity lock of jade carving and ivory carving, just when he was holding an ivory carved longevity lock and observing, Guo Hai also ran over, he saw that Chen Ran was actually looking at the longevity lock, so he couldn't help but quip: "Ah Ran, you wouldn't have thought about buying a longevity lock for your son so early, right?" ”

Chen Ran ignored him, put down the ivory carving longevity lock in his hand, and picked up a jade carving longevity lock. The longevity lock has only been gradually accepted by collectors over the years, and with the increasing popularity of the collection of longevity locks, there are many imitations on the market at present.

Chen Ran remembered that in the antique essay diary written by a collector he read, there was such a sentence, at present, there is only one way to distinguish the longevity lock, that is, if you see two identical locks, it must be fake, because the previous longevity locks are all handmade, even the same craftsman cannot make two identical locks.

"Ah Ran, if you buy it, pick one for me too, and I'll take it back to Aunt Yun, she will definitely be happy." Guo Hai squatted down and hugged Chen Ran's neck, and became interested in the longevity lock in front of him.

Chen Ran turned his head and glared at him, and said angrily: "Aunt Yun is so happy, it's time to urge you to find a daughter-in-law quickly!" ”

When Guo Hai heard this, he immediately became stunned, isn't this finding fault for himself.

Putting the longevity lock in his hand on the stall, Chen Ran stood up and was about to leave, but just as he was about to leave, the stall owner suddenly stopped him: "Wait...... Little brother, what's your name? ”

Chen Ran was stunned, and then nodded, Guo Hai called his name just now, and it was not surprising that the stall owner would know.

"yes, what's wrong?" Guo Hai also looked at the stall owner strangely.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man about forty years old, thin and weak, with a pair of eyes a little small, he looked at Chen Ran, and smiled happily: "Little brother, wait a minute, I have an ivory carved longevity lock here, can you see if you are interested?" ”

Chen Ran was noncommittal, but his eyes looked at the stall owner, and he was a little strange in his heart, what does this ivory longevity lock have to do with his own name, the stall owner seems to know that he will be interested......

The stall owner smiled, stood up, and opened the box he was sitting in, which contained a lot of things, including a steel kettle, a porcelain teacup, and a bunch of old things that looked very quaint.

The stall owner rummaged through this pile of miscellaneous things, and from time to time he pulled out a longevity lock, looked at it, and put it in the box again, and then found another longevity lock, and the longevity lock he took out was still carved from ivory.

Chen Ran saw that in addition to the longevity lock, there were also a lot of small things in the stall owner's box, which must have been collected by the stall owner himself at the beginning of the ghost market.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran took a step forward and flew out of an energy aperture to probe the past to see if the stall owner had received anything good......

Who knew that his exploration, the scene that happened, immediately made him stunned!
