Chapter 142: Antique Street
"Qiuqiu, come back!" With Yu Fei's shout, the little snow wolf ran back to him reluctantly. I don't know if it's because of the chaotic qi combing, the little snow wolf has grown up very fast, and his current height has caught up with the earth dog that was born three or four months old.
This is a famous antique street in the county, and Yu Fei just learned from his eldest brother-in-law Zhang Chengliang, and today is the first time to come.
Although the weather is very hot, the antique street under the shade of the French plane trees looks cool. The summer cicadas, who don't know where they are, chirp tirelessly, and the sunlight spills through the gaps in the leaves, gathering into irregular spots of light.
Each stall is not big or systematic, most of them are some common things such as jade, coins, and bronze Buddha statues, which are placed at random and can be picked by anyone.
Most of the stall owners are some elderly middle-aged and elderly people, sitting or squatting, and they do not solicit business, and they take care of themselves with a pu fan, which seems leisurely.
Some people may think that Yu Fei is stupid, if you want to make money, gambling stones must be more reliable than picking up leaks in the antique market, and the speed is ten times faster; If you want to replenish the chaotic qi, with the stock of those chaotic qi in the antiques, it is simply a drop in the bucket for the current Yu Fei, and it will not play much role at all. In this case, why did Yu Fei waste time in the antique market?
This has to be said to be a mood problem. To a certain extent, money is actually a number, for the current Yu Fei, even if he doesn't count the shares of Lengyan Jewelry, just talking about his tens of millions of cash and high-grade jade wool is enough for a whole family to eat and wear for a lifetime, and he doesn't have such an eager desire to make money. Got rid of the pressure of survival, Yu Fei, who calmed down, gradually realized the charm of antiques, the history reflected in every instrument, and the feelings carried by that little by little, all of which were deeply attracted to Yu Fei's heart. Saying that culture may be too big and too empty is true, but it is indeed a spiritual pleasure.
That's why he leaves his air-conditioned room on a hot day to wander the antique market. This is completely different from when I was in Yangzhou and Ningdu, when I was ignorant, and when I was in Ningdu, I had a strong sense of purpose. Now Yu Fei is loose and comfortable in his leisure.
After changing out of the high-end clothes he bought during this period of time and putting on the stall goods he bought at school again, Yu Fei seemed to have returned to his high school years all of a sudden, shuttling freely through the crowd. The only thing that makes him feel a little worried is the snow wolf ball, this little guy is getting bigger and bigger, snow-white, and looks very cute, people who see it can't help but want to touch it, but it is very arrogant, and it is very uninterested in the hand that stretches out, and even contains hostility, if it is not for Yu Fei's prevention, it is very likely to offer a wolf kiss!
For this reason, Yu's mother also persuaded Yu Fei to put a rope on Qiuqiu, so as not to bite people and cause trouble.
But let Yu Fei treat Qiuqiu as an ordinary dog, Yu Fei couldn't do it, but he just guaranteed that Qiuqiu would never bite, and Yu's mother had no choice but to give up.
The Pengcheng area was at its peak in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was a native of Pei County, so Pengcheng can also be called the land of Longxing. Many of the descendants of the Han family were buried in Pengcheng after their deaths, and the famous Lion Rock Han Tomb is the mausoleum of Liu Wu, the third king of Chu in the early Western Han Dynasty, and the world-famous golden jade clothes came from here. The famous archaeologist Wang Kai found seven Han tombs in Pengcheng in 22 years, which were written into the "Who's Who of World Intellectuals" in Cambridge, England. Therefore, it is likely that there are old objects from the Han Dynasty circulating in Pengcheng, which is also the most fundamental reason why Yu Fei came to visit the antique street.
Of course, this is also Yu Fei's wishful thinking, after all, the antique craze began in the late eighties, and more than ten years have passed now, many folk antiques have been collected, and there are many people who want to pick up leaks in the antique market every day, and if you want to find treasures in this situation, you need not only a pair of fiery eyes, but also luck! Moreover, if one is not good, it may be eye-catching! Because the means of counterfeiting are becoming more and more sophisticated, if the people who used to counterfeit were some half-and-a-half hangers who seemed to understand antiques, then most of the counterfeiters are experts now! Some of the imitations that have been created can even be faked for real.
Although it is said to be an antique street, it is actually more than 100 meters long, and 99% of it is shoddy blind work, which makes Yu Fei a little disappointed.
Just as Yu Fei was thinking about whether to leave, suddenly a "bear paw" slapped him on the shoulder, startling him a lot! The little snow wolf even pulled away from the fight, revealing its immature fangs and was about to pounce, so frightened that Yu Fei hurriedly stopped it.
"Hey! Yu Fei! It's really you! The person who came grinned and said, "I didn't dare to admit it after following you for a long time just now!" When did you kid come back? Why don't you even say hello?! ”
"Big head? Why are you here? Yu Fei turned around and said in surprise.
The "big head" is Yu Fei's high school classmate Chen Dadou, because his head is a little big, so he is nicknamed the big head by his classmates, and he has a very good relationship with Yu Fei. When he graduated from high school, Yu Fei was admitted to Yangcheng University, while Chen Dadou dropped out of school to make money to support his family, and the contact between the two was broken.
Chen Dadou was wearing a vest that had been washed a little thin, his two shoulders were tanned, his finger joints were thick and powerful, and he seemed to be almost thirty years old just by looking at his appearance. It can be seen that he is in a bad situation.
"I'll deliver some goods here." Chen Dadou pulled down the towel around his neck, wiped the dirt and dust off his arms, and pointed to an ornamental stone shop called Lingbi Strange Stone.
Lingbi stone, also known as chime stone, produced in Fupan Mountain, Lingbi County, Anhui Province, is a traditional ornamental stone in our country, as early as the Warring States period has been used as a tribute. The color is as black as ink, the stone is hard and elegant, and the color is beautiful. To sum up, it is "three strange and five strange". The three strange are the color, the sound, and the quality, and the five strange are thin, transparent, leaky, wrinkled, and ugly. Regardless of size, it is naturally formed, in a thousand forms, and has the characteristics of "wrinkled, thin, leaky, and transparent". Its skin is often rocky, ravines and ravines, rough and majestic, the atmosphere is ancient, the texture is very rich, full of charm.
What's even more strange is the rock made of the Lingbi stone. "Lingbi is a stone in the world, the sound is like bronze jasper, Xiurun four o'clock Langang Cui, treasure falls in the world He Weiwei", this is a poem of Song Dynasty people praising Lingbi stone. The woven chimes preserved by the Forbidden City and the Confucian Temple are all produced in Lingbi.
In the environment of antiques, Lingbi stone has also become a sought after object, and the price has been rising. Now there are very few real Lingbi stones, and many stones with Lingbi brands are fake.
"Are you in the Lingbi Stone business now?" Yu Fei asked in surprise. In his impression, Chen Dadou has nothing to do with the word elegance.
"How can I have that ability!" Chen Dadou scratched his head and said, "I'm just a small worker, delivering and transporting." By the way, when did you come back? School is out for the holidays? ”
Yu Fei nodded, and said with a slight emotion: "We haven't seen each other for a few years, right?" ”
"Not really! We haven't seen each other since you went to college. Hey! What breed is this little puppy of yours, so fierce! Chen Dadou said. The little snow wolf's posture just now scared him all.
"I said he wasn't a dog, he was a wolf, would you believe it?" Yu Fei said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Faith! How not to believe it? Chen Dadou said: "I have believed in you since I was in high school, have you been played by you less?" I remember one time you lied to me that the answer to the final exam was locked in the drawer of the head teacher, and I was asked to steal it, but it turned out to be your love letter! ”
The two of them laughed. When I was in high school, it was popular to have pen pals, and Yu Fei also made a few female pen pals, chatting happily, and had to write two or three letters a week. Yu Fei's academic performance was good, and the head teacher didn't want him to waste too much energy, so he withheld his letter. Yu Fei made up a reason to trick Chen Dadou into stealing it, but he was caught! And Chen Dadou was also very unrighteous, and recruited the initiator Yu Fei without any "torture", and as a result, both of them were named and criticized, and they were almost warned.
Speaking of the past, both of them seem to have returned to the green era, and they can't help but feel a little emotional.
