Panjiayuan thrift market is a very wide market, covering an area of 48,500 square meters. Located in the southeast corner of the third ring road in Beiping, it is the largest thrift market in China, Monday to Friday shops and merchants and greenhouses are open in one district and two districts, cultural relics calligraphy and painting, four treasures of the study, porcelain and wood furniture, etc., a total of more than 3,000 stalls, China's 24 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, involving more than a dozen ethnic groups such as Han and Hui have people set up stalls here.

The main items of the market are jewelry and jade, antique furniture, four treasures of the study, ancient books and paintings, old books and periodicals and daily necessities. It is a great place to buy and appreciate antiques, handicrafts, collectibles, and decorations. There is a gem identification center in the market, which can issue authoritative certificates or provide consultation for jewelry and jade on the spot.

The market has been called "the largest thrift market in the country", "the largest collectibles market in the country", and "the largest folk handicraft distribution center in the country" by the news media. Panjiayuan thrift market is the cheapest thrift market in Beijing, and some people say that it is like a museum, with a long history, known as the "ghost market", attracting a large number of Chinese and foreign tourists.

"Happy, we don't know antiques, don't mess around and talk, the last time I came to Panjiayuan, my friend told me that there are many rules for antiques, and some laymen have broken the rules and were beaten and lost money." Xie Xingxing and Zhong Yaqing found a snack bar and sat down, Zhong Yaqing was afraid that Xie Xingxing would not understand the rules of the antique shop.

"Oh. Sister Yaqing, what are the specific rules, we will sell things later, don't be ashamed. Xie Xingxing said vaguely as he ate.

"Eat your stuff honestly, why do you ask so much." Zhong Yaqing's face flushed, and she glared at Xie Xingxing and said. Well, it seems that Zhong Yaqing doesn't understand either, Xie happily eats honestly, trying to recall the rules about antique shops in those treasure appreciation novels in his previous life. But soon the phone rang, and Zhang Sanqian and his grandfather arrived.

"Brother Zhang, what are the rules of the antique shop, my sister said that there are many rules in the antique shop." When the professional arrived, Xie Xingxing hurriedly asked.

"Happy, are you here to buy something or to sell something? If it's for sale, I'll take you to an acquaintance to sell it, and I will definitely not cheat you, it's a matter of making more and making less money. If you want to buy something, to be honest, I have paid millions of tuition fees in the past few years and have not yet started, so let my grandfather help you see it. Zhang Sanqian is also sincere to Xie Xingxing.

"You little rabbit, I usually tell you to learn more and learn more, but you don't study, and you're embarrassed to say it's tuition for the millions you waste." Zhang Sanqian's grandfather didn't wait for Xie Xingxing's reply before he started training his grandson again.

"Brother Zhang, Grandpa Zhang, I'm here to sell things, but tell me the rules, otherwise it will be a shame to accidentally break the rules." Xie Xingxing, this is the opportunity to interject.

"Look at how studious Happy is, you lead the way in front, and I'll give Happy a good talk. A person who is interested in antiques has just arrived at the antique market, and when he steps through the market door, the rules come! First of all, the antique market inherits the tradition from ancient times, that is, it is mainly based on stalls, supplemented by stalls. The feeling that many people go to the antique market for the first time is that it is dirty and messy, full of people, and there are all kinds of people selling! ............ "Zhang Sanqian's grandfather really seems to have come to see his old friend, and he doesn't look at the things on both sides of the road, and concentrates on explaining the rules to Xie Xingxing."

"In short, the antique industry is to talk less and see more for novices, and be cautious." As he spoke, a group of several people had already walked to the front of an antique building.

"Welcome, welcome, it's really strange today, it's really a magpie coming to the door, there are so many distinguished guests coming to the door. Mr. Zhang, you haven't been here for a while, please upstairs. A middle-aged man saw someone coming and quickly greeted him, it seems that Zhang Sanqian's grandfather has a lot of status.

"It's strange that we're here, tell me, grandson." Zhang Sanqian seems to come often, and he is also very familiar with this middle-aged man.

"Sanqian, you actually came here empty-handed today without anything, that's not strange enough." The middle-aged man joked with Zhang Sanqian, and said to Zhang Sanqian's grandfather: "Qian Lao and Zhao Lao from the Forbidden City, as well as Mr. Huang and my grandfather from Wanbao Group are already upstairs, please." ”

"Then you're busy, I'll take them up first." Zhang Sanqian's grandfather waved his hand and said, and then went upstairs directly.

I went upstairs and came to a private room-style room, with a table of eight immortals in the middle of the room, a pair of ancient paintings on the table, tea tables and chairs on both sides, and three old people who were less than the age of Zhang Sanqian's grandfather and a middle-aged man who was obviously rich.

"Eh, why are people so all together today, and what are the good things?" Zhang Sanqian's grandfather went directly to the door and said hello.

"Lao Zhang, you haven't been to Panjiayuan for a long time, how can you have time to go around today."

"Yes, I haven't seen you for a while, and I thought you had already gone to Babao Mountain."

"Come, come, tea. Today, Xiao Huang found a painting of Tang Yin, which made us palm. ”

"Hello Mr. Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I wanted to visit you in a few days."

Everyone greeted each other, it seemed that they were all old acquaintances, and then Grandpa Zhang Sanqian introduced to his friends: "This is my grandson, you all know each other." This is Xie Xingxing, and this is his sister Zhong Yaqing. These two are the old Qian and Lao Zhao of the Forbidden City, they are both researchers of the Forbidden City, this is the owner of the Forbidden City, Lao Sun, and this is the President Huang of Wanbao Group. ”

"Qian Lao is good, Zhao Lao is good, Sun Lao is good, and Huang is good. If only you could call me happy (little bell). Xie Xingxing and Zhong Yaqing greeted each other one by one.

"Just call me Brother Huang, if you want to buy a house and find me in the future, I will give you a 5% discount." This Mr. Huang is really bold enough, and he just met with a big gift.

"Xiao Huang, you can still earn a 50% discount on your house, the 5% discount is too high." Ignoring Mr. Huang's embarrassment, Zhao Lao in the Forbidden City directly exposed him.

"Lao Zhao, Xiao Huang is not easy, don't hurt him. Xie Xingxing's name is so familiar, is it the genius boy reported in the People's Daily yesterday? "The old money of the Forbidden City.

"Qian Lao, if it's the Xie Xingxing who proves Poincaré's conjecture, it's me, but the genius boy doesn't dare to be it."

"Why aren't you a genius boy, I'm really old, old man, I haven't served anyone in my life, and now when I see you, I'm really convinced." At this time, Sun Lao seemed to be very emotional.

"Hey, it turns out that your grandson can also convince people, this is still a rare thing, happiness seems to be normal, it proves that a math problem is so powerful." Zhao Lao was very curious and stared at Xie Xingxing a few more times.

"You guy, you refused to let you read more newspapers yesterday, and you wanted to play chess with me. The math problem that I happily proved is not so simple, but it should not be so simple to make Lao Sun convinc. Qian Lao was also as curious as everyone else, and looked at Xie Xing a few more times.

"Lao Zhang, how did you know this kind of genius?" Sun Lao didn't explain, but went to ask Zhang Sanqian's grandfather.

"It was my grandson who met him in the park yesterday, and I don't know what kind of Bodhisattva he worshipped the day before yesterday." The most money-saving grandfather seems to be very proud, and his grandson knows Xie Xingxing.

"You guys are old and endless, judging in front of others." Zhang Sanqian looked at Xie Xingxing, who didn't care, and said.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, Lao Zhang, you haven't been here for so long, what's the matter with coming this time." As the master, Sun Lao hurriedly changed the topic.

"Lao Sun, what are you selling, tell me, you don't mind when you see people happy." Zhao Lao was very dissatisfied with his old friend's behavior of selling Guanzi.

"Alright, alright, you'll have a chance to know later. Today's main thing is to accompany the happy selling of things, and the happy to take out the things. Zhang Sanqian's grandfather hurriedly played a round.

Mr. Huang hurriedly put away the painting and let go of the table, and Xie Xingxing also took out the evil snakeskin bag from his travel bag under the curious eyes of everyone. Seeing that it was a snakeskin bag, everyone was more curious, what kind of antique was willing to be packed in a snakeskin bag.

"10 gold bricks, one catty and two taels, a total of twelve catties." Xie Xingxing opened the snakeskin bag and spread it directly on the table.

"Happy, you said you were selling gold, I am familiar with the gold shops in Beiping, and I guarantee that you will sell them at a good price." Zhang Sanqian didn't have much interest in seeing that it was gold, and he didn't come over to look at it and said directly to Xie Xingxing.

"You guy who doesn't know how to learn, don't talk nonsense if you don't know." Zhang Sanqian was trained by his grandfather again.

"Old Qian, old Zhao, this is not true, right?" Sun Lao, who opened the antique, asked very suspiciously.

"It's exactly the same as the two in the Forbidden City, can you send one to the gem identification center of Beijing Normal University Hall next to it for identification?" Qian Lao seemed to be very excited, and hurriedly asked Xie Xingxing.

"Absolutely." Xie Xingxing doesn't care, anyway, it wasn't an antique at the beginning. Sun Lao hurriedly asked his son, who was watching the store downstairs, to send the gold bricks for identification.

"Qian Lao, isn't this the gold brick of the Qianlong period?" This is Mr. Huang and several seniors put on gloves to get started, and asked when he found that there was nothing abnormal.

"A few years ago, when the Forbidden City was being renovated, two identical gold bricks were found, just like these. However, the gold purity of these gold bricks far exceeds that era, and the purity is higher than that of the so-called Wanzu Gold Capital now. Zhao Lao explained.

"Those two gold bricks have not been exhibited because they cannot be explained by science, but they have become the treasures of the Forbidden City." Qian Lao took a sip of tea and continued to explain.

"Happy, do you want to sell these gold bricks, how about selling them to me, the price is easy to say." As soon as he heard that these gold bricks in front of him were actually the level of the treasures of the Forbidden City, Mr. Huang, a local tyrant, was also excited.

"It's not that the results of the appraisal haven't come out yet, wait a minute."

"Let's not wait for the results, how about selling them to me directly, no matter what the appraisal results are, I will admit it." Mr. Huang seemed to be a little anxious.

"Huang Da Tuhao, don't be happy to be a novice, you still have that little money. Why didn't the appraisal results come out, it's just that Qian Lao and Zhao Lao are not sure. Zhang Sanqian stood up at this time.

The result came out quickly, exactly the same as everyone expected, and in the end it was sold to this Mr. Huang. It was sold for 50 million in cash and a newly developed villa near the Old Summer Palace.
