The next day, everyone went out to play, and Zhou Furong really pulled Chu Jiaqiang and Ye Jisheng to visit Panjiayuan. Looking at the appearance of that kid, I really thought that if I ran away, I would have a treasure to pick up.

Teacher Liu didn't bother to care about them, anyway, there were many people leading the team. For a person like Zhou Furong who is full of bad water, it is best to go away and save yourself from teaching bad children.

"The boss said, everyone will come to him in a few days to play, will you go?" Ye Jisheng asked.

"It's up to Mr. Liu! I don't care. However, it's so close, we should go, so that he keeps saying that we won't go. Chu Jiaqiang said. Coming here, it's really not far from the boss's hometown.

"After communicating with Mr. Liu, I will definitely agree. Go to the Northeast, which is also a famous place in the country, let the children go to see the knowledge and see the black soil there. Zhou Furong said.

If you suggest that Mr. Liu go and have fun, people may not have time to pay attention to you. But if you let the child see it, he will definitely consider it.

As he spoke, he arrived at Panjiayuan. Here, I only see tourists coming and going, and the people who really know how to do it may not even be one in a thousand. Most of them follow the trend and try the fun of collecting with others.

In other places, the antique street is deserted, and people pay attention to not opening for three years, and eating for three years, so they are not worried about no one flowing, and drink tea calmly. However, it is like a vegetable market, noisy and noisy.

Seeing this scene, Chu Jiaqiang deeply felt what it means to be a national collection. Nowadays, China is in a prosperous period, everyone does not worry about eating and drinking, and many people have begun to pay attention to life and enjoyment. Among them, collection is a very important performance. Although many people don't know how to appreciate the charm of an antique, if they have the ability, they still put one at home or hide it, and they feel that the whole person is much more interesting.

"How? Have you seen it for a long time? This is the best place in the country to collect. Zhou Furong saw Chu Jiaqiang's surprised expression and felt a sense of accomplishment.

In fact, looking at the whole country, the capital has the most powerful collection, and it is a cultural center, which is naturally much better than other cities. In terms of the degree of development, it may not be as good as the Yangtze River Delta; In terms of affluence, it may not be as good as the pearl. Triangle, but when it comes to cultural relics and antiques, the capital is definitely the big brother.

"According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 4,000 businesses in the market here, with nearly 10,000 business personnel, of which 60% of the operators are from outside the capital." Zhou Furong said to Chu Jiaqiang.

Ye Jisheng is no stranger to this place, he has been here twice before, according to the introduction of the last person, the market here has actually been formed not long ago, only more than ten or twenty years. It has gradually developed with the rise and activity of folk antique art trade, and has now become a large-scale antique art market that spreads folk culture.

However, the "tradition" of buying and selling old goods can be traced back to the end of the Qing Dynasty, when many declining aristocrats took their antiques and came here to sell them. By the early 90s of the last century, a market was spontaneously formed in Panjiayuan, and some local residents set up stalls on the roadside, selling porcelain, old furniture and other things at home. Later, traders from other places also came here.

"People who play antiques don't seem to be poor, although these shops are not big, but many of the shop owners are tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions." Zhou Furong finished speaking

, did not run directly into the store, but wandered around the stalls outside.

He knew these places best. Those small shops, the one inside is not an old fox, how can it be so easy to dig food from their mouths? Ten ** is to be cut down by them into water.

If you want to pick up the leaks, it is better to have these stalls, although most of them are fakes, but there must be good ones in the waves, it depends on whether you have eyesight.

"By the way, your grandfather! Don't you come and walk? Chu Jiaqiang asked suddenly.

Zhou Furong said very casually: "He went to the west. Ann went. This tone doesn't seem to care at all about where his old man goes.

Chu Jiaqiang and the others were speechless, and secretly said that Old Man Zhou can really run! Yesterday I was still in the capital, and today I am going to the west. Ann, grow old and strong!

"Actually, you should bring the kids here." Zhou Furong suddenly said something nonsensical.

"Ugh! What did you bring them here for? These things are expensive, can they afford them? Chu Jiaqiang suddenly felt that this guy was nervous, and he didn't speak through his brain.

"Who said you have to buy something here? It's a place of culture, let them come and feel it. See, there are almost all kinds of cultural relics from all over the country, and it is a good place to learn Chinese culture. Zhou Furong said. In addition, he also told Chu Jiaqiang that the gringos generally came to the capital for four purposes: climbing the Great Wall, eating roast duck, visiting the Forbidden City, and visiting Panjiayuan.

Looking at the past, you will find that the main items of the business are antique furniture, the four treasures of the study, ancient books and paintings, old books and periodicals, agate and jade, ceramics, Chinese and foreign coins, bamboo and wood bone carvings, shadow puppet masks, Buddhist tokens, national costumes, cultural revolution relics, etc. It can be said that this is a window for collection display, a platform for collectors to communicate, and a paradise for Tibetan friends to Taobao.

"In the evening, we'll come back, it's fun at that time." Zhou Furong said secretly.

Chu Jiaqiang didn't understand these things, and felt in his heart that if he came over at night, wouldn't it be easier to be eye-catching? Didn't you come here at that time and look for death?

Ye Jisheng knew something about it, and explained: "From dusk to midnight, this is a ghost market. ”

Hearing the word ghost market, Chu Jiaqiang frowned slightly: "Didn't you say that ghost markets are generally in the morning?" He remembered that someone had said before that ghost markets were usually in the wee hours of the morning.

When someone hears this word, they may feel creepy. Literally, the "ghost market" is the market for ghosts, and according to tradition, before dawn, the time when ghosts are most active, so the ghost market is often defined at that time.

Nowadays, a ghost market generally refers to a market of antiques and antiques. Because it is unfathomable, difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and confusing, people call it "ghosts". Especially the elderly people, usually get up early, go for a walk in the "ghost market", "exchange" some small antiques, a few old friends get together to play, or have a special interest.

"The time varies from place to place, depending on the habits of the locals, for sure." Zhou Furong explained.

The ghost market is also a favorite place for their insiders, mainly because it is sometimes easy to find good treasures here, and this kind of case has not been once or twice.

Everyone continued to walk forward, and Zhou Furong stopped at a small stall, it seemed that there should be something to look at. (To be continued)
