Chapter 4 Wanhe Street
As soon as the sky was bright, Shanghua City was already lively, and the streets and alleys were full of people in a hurry, surging wave after wave.
Pingnan Street is a rather inconspicuous old street in Shanghua City, with a remote location and not many people. On both sides of the street are small shops, mostly small advertising agencies, whose main business is to take on some small jobs, such as designing and printing business cards, making light signs, and so on.
Hongfa Advertising Company is a company on this street.
"Uncle Xing."
After coming down from the attic, Zheng Tianlong found a man in his fifties sitting at the tea table boiling water, it was Bai Jianyun's uncle Song Xing, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Heh, Tianlong, that kid from Bai Jianyun told me about your business, you just stay here first, and talk about the rest later. Come, drink tea. ”
"Okay."
Song Xing is from the next village, and Zheng Tianlong naturally recognizes it. After drinking a strong cup of tea, the headache caused by the hangover was finally alleviated a lot.
"There's nothing to do today, let Bai Jianyun take you out for a walk."
"Hey, uncle, I'm planning to do this, I'll go out for a walk with Tianlong now."
At this time, Bai Jianyun also staggered down, pulled Zheng Tianlong and walked out.
After a simple breakfast, Bai Jianyun took Zheng Tianlong to squeeze into the bus, and an hour later, he arrived at Wanhe Street.
"This is Wanhe Street?"
The street in front of me is obviously an old street, not wide, if it is one-way, it is a little more than one lane, and on both sides are one or another shops, not people in and out, and it is very lively.
What surprised Zheng Tianlong even more was that although there were many shops decorated luxuriously, there were also many shops with all kinds of magic utensils piled up in front of the hills, or simply set up stalls along the street, and there were also many people rummaging around in such places.
"Hey, Wanhe Street is said to have a history of hundreds of years, and it is a place that specializes in selling magic weapons, of course, it is also a paradise for us to pick up leaks.
Bai Jianyun had a better understanding of these situations and introduced them triumphantly.
"Oh, by the way, what are you talking about?"
Zheng Tianlong remembered that although Bai Jianyun mentioned it last night, he didn't say it in detail.
"Like antiques, the method of picking up leaks is to rely on extraordinary vision or luck to buy a very valuable magic weapon at a very low price, and then sell it."
"Understood, isn't it just buying low and selling high."
Glaring at Zheng Tianlong, Bai Jianyun said, "You said it lightly. Although it is said that there is also an element of luck in picking up leaks, it is more important to identify the magic weapons, which is based on the knowledge of the magic weapons and is a high-tech work. ”
Zheng Tianlong looked around and said, "What kind of magic weapon is valuable?" ”
"Quality, material, etc. can determine the price of a ritual artifact, for example, for the same material, a beautifully made artifact is naturally more valuable than a rough one; Different materials, gold is naturally more expensive than pure copper. However, these are obvious to ordinary people, so it is unlikely that such a magic weapon will be missed. ”
"Oh, what else?"
"Of course!"
Bai Jianyun exaggeratedly raised his right hand and waved it vigorously, and then continued: "There are two kinds of magic weapons that are really valuable, one is made by high monks or Taoist priests, they have infinite mana under years of practice, and the magic weapons they make have a powerful aura; The second type is a time-honored magic weapon, which absorbs the essence of the moon with the passage of time, and also forms a powerful aura. ”
"The most important thing is that these two magic weapons are good objects to pick up leaks: famous magic weapons or old magic weapons can be distinguished by very few people for various reasons, so they provide us with a good opportunity. For example, a few days ago, I heard that a person in Wanhe Street found a magic vessel made by a feng shui master in the Qing Dynasty, bought it for less than 300 yuan, and sold it for a high price of 500,000 yuan in a blink of an eye. One of these magic weapons is made by famous artists, and the other is a certain number of years, which is very valuable. ”
"White fat man, it seems that it is not the first time you have come to Wanhe Street, have you ever picked up a leak?"
Zheng Tianlong's words made Bai Jianyun's face blush, and he scratched his scalp, and Bai Jianyun said for a long time: "This...... There was a small leak once. ”
"Oh? Let's hear it. ”
"Hey~ A year ago, I just started in the industry and bought a magic weapon for 30 yuan in a magic weapon store, and then as soon as I went out, someone found me and bought it for 200 yuan."
"Is that a leak? I only made 170 yuan. ”
"Grandma's, I said Tianlong, can you say something nice? No matter how small a mosquito is, it's meat, and this small leak is also a leak. ”
Bai Jianyun's eyes widened, and he looked very angry.
"Hey, what is this?"
Zheng Tianlong, who just wanted to "stimulate" Bai Jianyun again, paused and stopped.
There is an intersection in the center of Wanhe Street, and it is also the most crowded place, and Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun happened to walk to this place at this time.
Zheng Tianlong, who stopped, couldn't help blinking his eyes a few times, but found that he was not dazzled at all, and he saw an air flow like a river:
The river-like air flow from the other end of Wanhe Street, and when it reached the intersection, it slowed down, formed a vortex, and then flowed into the door of a shop on the side of the street as if it had been sucked by something.
I looked at the plaque on the door of the store and saw that it was a shop called Tongfangzhai.
"What the hell is going on?"
Raising his hand and rubbing his eyes a few times before looking forward, Zheng Tianlong found that the Qi River was still there.
In broad daylight, a gas-like river floated slowly in the streets, and the cars and people on the streets seemed to be immersed in the mist, but it was clear that they were unaware of it - including themselves.
Stretching out his hand and pushing it a few times, Zheng Tianlong found that there was no resistance at all, and it was obvious that the qi river he saw was an invisible existence.
"Celestial Dragon, Celestial Dragon."
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
Zheng Tianlong woke up in shock and found that Bai Jianyun was looking at him strangely.
"What are you doing? What are you pushing like a nerd? ”
Bai Jianyun had actually walked forward for more than ten meters, and suddenly found that Zheng Tianlong had not followed, but when he walked back, he found that Zheng Tianlong was standing in a daze, and he stretched out his hand and pushed forward a few times.
"Oh, nothing, let's go."
Zheng Tianlong temporarily suppressed the doubts about Qihe in his heart, but after taking a few steps, he couldn't help but ask:
"White fat man, what is that Tongfangzhai place?"
"Tongfangzhai? It is one of the largest ritual shops in the entire Wanhe Street, and it is said that it appeared when Wanhe Street was built, and it is a real century-old shop. The owner's name is Wang Gang, and he is one of the most famous feng shui practitioners in Shanghua City. ”
Bai Jianyun obviously has also worked hard, and he is very familiar with the situation in Wanhe Street.
"Wang Gang is a feng shui master? Then his shop will definitely set up a feng shui array? ”
"That's for sure, Tongfangzhai has a very powerful feng shui array for gathering wealth, and this feng shui array can suck the wealth of the entire street into the store."
Bai Jianyun sighed quite a bit at this. The magic industry is a very profitable industry, even more profitable than antiques, so the competition in this place of Wanhe Street is extremely fierce, from time to time there are shops open and from time to time there are shops down, but between a hundred years Tongfang Zhai stands tall, in addition to the feng shui master of Tongfang Zhai from generation to generation, the most important thing in the legend is that Tongfang Zhai has a powerful feng shui array, and it is the existence of this feng shui array to ensure that it has been lucky for many years.
Zheng Tianlong was stunned for a moment and said:
"So powerful?"
"Of course, however, ordinary people can't see the wealth absorbed by this feng shui array, as long as a feng shui master who can look forward to qi can do it."
Feng Shui believes that there must be qi where there are holes, and clever feng shui masters can see the qi in the holes, and can determine the good luck and evil according to the color and shape of the qi, etc., and there are many stories of hope in history, such as the "Historical Records of Emperor Wen" records, in the fifteenth year of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty (165 BC), Zhao people Xinyuan Ping saw the qi with hope, because it was said that the five temples of Weiyang were established.
This is to say that Aragaki Ping said to Emperor Huan that the northeast of Chang'an has a spirit, and it looks like a colorful one, just like a crown worn by people...... Since there was such a qi, it was necessary to set up a shrine to God, so Emperor Wen of Han accepted his suggestion and built the Temple of the Five Emperors in Weiyang.
In the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Lang Kai", it is recorded that Lang Kai is good at wind angles, star calculations, six and seven points, especially being able to hope for luck and good luck, and later predicted that there would be a fire in Beijing according to the storm, and it came true.
Bai Jianyun dreamed that he could have such ability, but it was simply impossible, so he could only be envious.
"Could it be that the river of qi I see is the qi inhaled by the Tongfang Zhai Feng Shui Array? If so, do I have the ability to hope? ”
Thinking of this, Zheng Tianlong's heart jumped wildly, and his tongue became dry. Bai Jianyun has already said just now, only a master feng shui master has this ability, if he has this ability, doesn't that mean that he is also a smart feng shui master?
Last night, I had already discovered that I could recognize the name and function of the magic weapon just by holding it in my hand, and now I have another ability to look at qi, which is really amazing!
"Fatty, you can hope for qi, do you believe it or not?!"
"Huh?!"
Bai Jianyun was stunned as if he had been struck by thunder, and it wasn't until Zheng Tianlong had already walked out more than ten meters away that Bai Jianyun came back to his senses, and immediately chased after him, muttering in his heart as he ran:
"Rub, is this kid really a master? If it's true, then Lao Tzu will send it! ”;
