Luoyang peony is the best in the world. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just a pity that Lin Yi didn't come to Luoyang to see peonies, but to buy books. It turned out that after Lin Yi finished Jiang Lifu's interview in Nandu in the past few days, he was invited by Jiang Lifu to come to Luoyang Taobao. In Jiang Lifu's words, you are a dragon, and the dragon will go to sea sooner or later, so it is better to go to Luoyang to practice your hands first, and be familiar with the water. Although this sentence is joking, it is also sincere.

Jiang Lifu himself is a reporter, there are many ways, ears and eyes, I heard that Luoyang is going to hold an "antique conference" recently, he intends to come here to wander around, Taobao, by the way to find some reporter materials.

Nandu is not far from Luoyang, Jiang Lifu established a deep friendship with Lin Yi in an exclusive interview, and the two have common hobbies, which can be said to be "smelly and like-minded", so they became friends. Since they are good friends, after Jiang Lifu got the news, he very warmly invited Lin Yi to come over, and besides, the two can be regarded as having a companion together.

According to Jiang Lifu's words, the ghost job of the pawnshop is just lost, you don't belong to the kind of well-behaved office workers, and the world of antique Taobao is the jungle where you grow.

Although Lin Yi didn't agree with Lao Jiang's words, he really didn't have anything to do, the interview he just did had to be edited before it could be broadcast, and the next few days were waiting, Lin Yi didn't have that kind of idle time, so he drove straight to Luoyang with Jiang Lifu to participate in the "Antique Conference" here.

As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, Luoyang has a strong atmosphere of ancient culture, especially those ancient buildings, which are one by one.

As a reporter, Jiang Lifu has been traveling south and north, and is also very familiar with Luoyang, driving a private car without looking at the car navigation, and directly killing the largest antique city in Luoyang, where the antique conference was held.

As soon as he arrived at the "Son of Heaven Driving Six Antique City" in the center of Luoyang, Lin Yi looked at it, and first saw a huge antique archway, which was written with a gold pen "Luoyang First City", and then looked at the surrounding facades, which were also antique types, and looked at the introduction, "Relying on the glorious history of the thousand-year-old imperial capital, the essence of the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties, gathering the winners of Chinese antiques, and winning the world." ”

The tone is quite big.

Lin Yi couldn't help but be interested in this antique city.

Jiang Lifu parked the Volkswagen Lavida at the parking station, and then found Lin Yi and walked towards the antique city.

As soon as the two of them took a few steps in, they were attracted by a shout, and saw a young man selling sugar cane, who was lean and thin, and a cart of sugar cane had several large bundles. The young man leaned in front of the tricycle, picked up an electric horn, put it close to his mouth, and said; "Sugar cane is coarse and sweet, the more you eat it, the more you like it! Five yuan for one, three for ten yuan! ”

In addition, there is a stall owner selling groceries opposite, who sells brushes for cleaning glass windows, and shouts while demonstrating: "A house is hundreds of thousands, and the glass does not look good if it is not wiped." "Live on the seventh floor, live on the eighth floor, and don't worry about cleaning the glass." The rhyme is smooth, the importance of cleaning glass has been said, and the convenience of cleaning glass is not only said, but also demonstrated to you in person. Hurry up and buy it. This kind of shouting is more ear-catching than "coarse and sweet", "the more you eat, the more you like it".

But these two are not masters, not far from the two stalls, there is also a young man selling kitchen knives, his shouting is a long speech, rhyme, the words are round, like talking about cross talk, introducing kitchen knives mixed with historical comments on current affairs, soon surrounded by a circle of people, men, women and children, squatting or standing. 20 yuan a handful, and someone bought it immediately. The wonderful thing is that the young man said a set of words, as if he was tailor-made for the buyer, and the scene felt quite appropriate. The content varies from person to person, praise character, call ability, and do not repeat. This is also a shout, and the people on the side listen to it, and they feel itchy and unbearable, and they pay for a kitchen knife, whether it is good or not, and let the ears enjoy it first. Young people almost want to boast about the buyer to death, and some buyers also laugh at flattering words such as "Anbang ruling the country".

Seeing that Lin Yi seemed to be very interested in these vendors, the well-informed Jiang Lifu smiled and said, "Sure enough, it is the master of --- among the people." ”

Lin Yi nodded in agreement. However, the things sold in this antique city are too messy, what to eat, drink, and play, even kitchen knives are used to sell, it looks like a "hodgepodge", and even not far away there is a very familiar "Jiangnan tannery is closed, the boss owes 350 million, and he ran away with his sister-in-law......"

Lin Yi was dizzy, it seems that this tannery has a lot of inventory, and it has not been sold out for three years---。

Of course, Lin Yi didn't pay much attention to these miscellaneous stalls, and basically passed by and went straight to the antique area inside.

……

It is worthy of an antique conference, and I saw that the antique market inside was full of all kinds of bustling people. or in groups of three or two, or alone. Some seem to be careless, but their eyes can't stop pondering the grocery stalls on the side of the road. Some stride meteors are walking in a hurry, and such people generally have their own goals in mind.

Some of the stall owners were chatting, some were looking around waiting for customers to come to the door, and some even placed a large cardboard on the stall with the words "Please call your mobile phone if you have something, you will be there in ten minutes"; Many of the vendors sat cross-legged in front of a rag, humming to themselves, turning a blind eye to people, as if they had never expected to sell.

If there is any difference between the vendors here and the vendors in other places, it is that there are people everywhere. How to tell the difference? Look at the clothes they are wearing, Xinjiang, Tibetans, and even Miao people.

Jiang Lifu likes to buy some ethnic jewelry, so Lin Yi followed him to meet a female stall owner, her name is Pan Yuzhen, a Miao woman from Guizhou, she is wearing a national costume, and also wears a huge silver ear ornament, this dress itself is an advertisement.

She has a cheerful and active personality, Jiang Lifu bought her a set of silver bracelets, and she waved a big copper coin to show it, saying that she had just bought it and could be used to scrape. She said that today's business is average, but someone ordered 50 sets of Dong clothing, which is not as good as selling silver jewelry, and she sold more than 7,000 yuan today!

Kamao is a Tibetan beauty who specializes in Tibetan clothing. She wore a shawl, and she was like a good girl from that faraway land. She said that when she was a child, she followed her family as a nomad and raised more than 30 yaks and more than 200 sheep. Before making a stall, he worked as an actor in a folk art troupe in Qinghai. Later, I saw that my friends around me were making a lot of money by setting up stalls, so I entered the industry and started a business. She does business everywhere, but she usually does it in Panjiayuan, Beijing, where the place is big and there are many sales. It's only occasionally where there is a big gathering, such as this Luoyang Antique Conference, that they will rush over to join in the fun. Then she said that she sold more than 8,000 yuan today.

Jiang Lifu said that he had been to her hometown of Huangnanzhou, Qinghai, and she asked if you think Beijing or Qinghai was better?

Jiang Lifu groaned slightly, and asked rhetorically: What do you say?

She said of course it's Beijing!

Jiang Lifu said that each has its own merits.

She smiled: "You're pretty good at talking.

……

Lin Yi didn't know if Jiang Lifu had found the reporter's material, but through Jiang Lifu's traction, Lin Yi also began to look at these "street vendors" who traveled from south to north and even wandered the world from another angle.

There are sometimes more human stories than books.

……

Finally, after Jiang Lifu finished looking for reporter materials in these antique areas, Lin Yi had the opportunity to enter the field of used books with him, and as soon as he arrived at the street where used books were bought and sold, Lin Yi saw a pile of shabby calligraphy and paintings in front of an old man in the countryside, surrounded by a group of selected people, and the selected ones were bargaining.

According to Lin Yi's current eyesight, he knew at a glance that it was a bunch of fake things that couldn't be fake. The inscription on the picture is crooked, and it is simply written by a person who has never held a brush, which is very ugly. It's just that the painting has been worn. It's also very intimidating to look at the paper.

Two of them chose to block the waist and slash at the waist, and asked for more than 300 paintings to throw down a hundred and run. Looking at his face and picking up a big bargain, the old man in the countryside sighed helplessly: Look at what kind of business this is, isn't this the same as giving it for nothing. But there is a hint of a smile in the corner of his eyes that outsiders can't detect. The rest of the people became more and more composed, and they started to get started, and after a while, most of the pile of shabby calligraphy and paintings were sold.

Two people in their sixties bought one, and a man of about the same age but dressed like a connoisseur with status next to him. The man talked eloquently: Things can't be wrong, Guan Shanyue, I've been playing this for decades, I'm sure of this. The two of them thanked each other: thank you, thank you, a few hundred yuan is not much, as long as the thing is real. As everyone knows, it is clumsy and strange that a painting of Guan Shanyue is not available for 1.8 million yuan. Looking at the satisfied expressions of the two, Lin Yi really couldn't bear to tell them anything, so he bought a dream for a few hundred yuan.

After a while, the people were gone, and a man with the same accent as the old man in the country came over: I earned it today.

Old Man: It's time for us to go back.

If you think about it, this pile of shabby calligraphy and paintings must be matched with such a slag-free old man in the countryside, just like the person driving a donkey cart in the wasteland of northern Shaanxi must be an old man wrapped in a shabby leather jacket with a black white sheep's belly handkerchief on his head, if it is a little daughter-in-law wearing a silk cloth and a thick rouge on her face, then something is completely wrong.

Those who bought fake things thought they had picked up a leak, and they were happy in their hearts. Those who sold fake things made money and went home. Thinking about it, it seems that no one has suffered, because fortunately, it is very beautiful in my heart.

Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh: In our eyes, the other party is a fool, so in the eyes of the other party, we must also be fools. In the end, all people are fools, and in the end: if you want to be happy, don't be too shrewd, and being a fool who treats each other as fools is also a kind of happiness.

Just when Lin Yi sighed about this, Jiang Lifu, who came to Taobao with him, had already made a move in front of a used book stall. (To be continued.) )
