From the Pingxi Gate along the more than 3 meters long road into the city, the eyes suddenly opened, compared with the outside of the city, it is like to another world, rows of Daiwa cornices, earth, wood, brick houses are lined up one after another, scattered. The pedestrians on the street are bustling and lively. Huangshi didn't have too many surprises, but felt a huge contrast between the front and back, and the children came to the bustling city for the first time, obviously deeply shocked by the prosperity in front of them.

"Sir, isn't this the liveliest place in the world?" "Of course not, this is just a small corner of the world", for children who just have a word "world", the prosperity of this small city is like opening a window in their hearts.

Huang Shi let the three boys follow him closely, he took the hand of the little girl and walked in front, this street is more than 1 mile long, the road surface is paved with ashlar stones, strips of stones, along the way actually saw a dentist's hall, a day selection hall, a barber shop, a grocery store, a chess and card hall, a brown rope club, a scale shop, a pastry shop, a sauce and squid shop, a rice wine shop, and a green herb stall, a copper dan for the supplement, a department store to go to the countryside, etc., these shops are lined up on both sides of the street, and guests are also in and out of it.

As the flow of people walked forward for a while, I finally saw a slightly larger inn, a two-story wooden house, and the swaying cloth banner in front of the door said "Tongfu Inn". Thinking about the fact that the children are also a little tired after walking for most of the day today, I want them to play in the city for two days, and I will inspect the local products by the way.

When I entered the store, I found that although it was noon, there was no popularity in the store, and the counter was on the left side of the store, and there was a "Caiyuan Guangjin" posted in front of the counter, and behind the counter was two rows of wine cabinets, on which were placed large and small, and various forms of wine jars were placed. In the middle of the store, there are 4 or 5 long tables and square tables, and there are teapots and lamps on the tables. To the left of the counter is a doorway that presumably leads to the kitchen, and to the right of the counter is a wooden staircase that leads to the upstairs guest room.

When the shopkeeper in the counter saw Huang Shi and the other 5 people, he immediately smiled and nodded, "May I ask if this son is having a meal or a stay?"

"Open two rooms upstairs for me, and then you can estimate and bring me some delicious meals", "Okay, Childe, wait a while", the shopkeeper took the abacus on the left, pushed the account book in front of him back, and counted it with a crackle, "Childe, the two customers are 3 cents of silver, and the meal is wiped out of the fraction, even if you have 4 cents of silver, a total of 7 cents of silver", after speaking, he put the abacus back again.

Huang Shi took out his own poured broken silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper held the silver bar for a while, and probably wondered how the boy's silver looked so good, he picked up the rod on the right, and then took out a handful of clip scissors from the counter, and then put the silver piece on the plate and lifted it to weigh it, after putting it down, picked up the clip scissors and clicked for a while, and then picked up the nickname to weigh it, back and forth several times, and then turned the weighing rod to Huang Shi to see, Huang Shi naturally could only pretend to nod his head, In fact, he really couldn't understand it, and he saw that the shopkeeper wanted to return the remaining nine denarii to him.

"Shopkeeper, help me exchange the remaining silver for copper coins, and I can have a good use on the street", "Then son, do you want to exchange it for Zhengde, Jiaqing gold back money, or other small money"?

What is the small money, Huang Shi was a little puzzled, but he was embarrassed to ask, so he let the shopkeeper's fold into money, which totaled more than 600 yuan, tied with a thin hemp rope, and it was still quite a bit heavy. Then under the guidance of Xiao Er, I went upstairs to the two guest rooms to take a look, on the left side of the door of the guest room is a desk and a straight-backed chair, on the right side of the door are two official hat chairs sandwiched between a small coffee table, and the most behind the wall is a shelf bed. The place is not big, but it is clean and simple, and the furnishings are no different from modern hotels, but there is no wardrobe and bathroom, and only a toilet is placed in the corner of the room.

Let Xiao Er go down to urge the food first, Huang Shi closed the door, and made arrangements with the children, so that they can sleep in the same room for 4 nights, at least take care of each other, and he obviously wants to go back, so this room is just a cover-up.

After resting for a while, the food was almost ready, Huang Shi led the four little guys to lock the door and go downstairs, the shopkeeper saw it, so he greeted him, and asked Xiao Er to lead Huang Shi and them to sit at a table with the best appearance, and then served the dishes one after another, that is, a meat with three vegetarian dishes with a bowl of tofu soup, although there are no modern seasonings, but the ingredients are good plus the professional cook, so that the little guys who have already digested the inventory in their stomachs have added two bowls of rice.

……

After resting for an hour after dinner, Huang Shi led the little ones to the street, according to Xiao Er's introduction, outside the inn is Xin'an Lane, which is the most central street and lane in the city, according to him, it is also the most prosperous essence, and also introduces several attractions that can be browsed in the city, such as the City God's Department of Yishan Hall, Yangzhi Building, Heshan Garden, etc. Huangshi and they just took a look at it, there was nothing too special, as for the former residence of Zhang Yuangan, a famous poet in the Song Dynasty, he wanted to go, but he couldn't enter.

However, the children found their favorite gadgets in the shops in various alleys, and then asked Xiaoya to pull Huangshi's arm, "Sir, sir, do you think this is fun", "Alas, you are here again", "This time you can say it, this is the last time", after speaking, Huangshi pinched Xiaoya's little face that has some meat recently.

The little ones are holding playful rattles, mud screams, and empty bamboos in their hands, eating osmanthus cakes in their mouths, and contentedly following the Yellowstone uphill and down the steps in the city to trace the distant charm of 500 years ago. When he returned to the inn, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and Huang Shi took out the silver again, asked the shopkeeper to serve some simple meals and prepare some bath water, and by the way, he found some copper coins to come back.

After washing up the children, take them to the adjacent guest room and go to bed. I went back to the room, closed the door and used two official hat chairs against it, and then sat in front of the desk and took out some copper plates that I had exchanged for today, several hundred, and deliberately picked out the "Jiaqing Tongbao", leaving only "Zhengde Tongbao", "Hongzhi Tongbao", "Xuande Tongbao", etc., and counted 213 pieces.

Smoothly returned to the modern home, Huang Shi put the string of copper coins in his hand on the table, and then went to the bedroom to take out his mobile phone, to see that there were no friends to find today, only a few unmarked phone numbers, it is estimated that it is either a real estate promotion or a loan shark, and by the way, he flipped through the text messages. Then he turned out the correspondence book and found Wu Guangzhu, one of his college classmates, had a good relationship when he was in school, but after everyone had children, there was no time to have less contacts, a few years ago he took his father's plate and opened an antique shop in the Han and Tang Dynasty Cultural City, the shop is not very big and also engaged in some calligraphy and painting framing, saying that it is an ancestral craft.

"Hey, old pig, I'm a stone, yes, yes, I have something to look for you today, how is it, are you still in the store"? After getting a positive reply, Huang Shi changed his clothes, and then put the bronze coins into a thick paper bag, and hit them straight to the Han and Tang Cultural Cities.

When I got to the place, I saw that the Han and Tang Dynasty big names downstairs people in and out, especially on this street there are several nightclubs, now is the most lively time, used to chat with the old pig, the old pig said that most of the things in this antique market are imitations, generally made by antique high imitation factories in other places, and then there are deliveries to this side every day. Sellers who eat antiques have their own purchase channels, and buyers can only rely on their own eyesight.

Walking to the front of the old pig's shop, he saw that the old pig was sending his guests out, obviously both parties were more satisfied, and they were all smiling, Huang Shi thought to himself that this old pig had a kind face and a black heart, and it was estimated that he had fooled a fat sheep again. After watching the guests walk away, Huang Shi walked over, "Old pig, I went to my hometown today to collect some copper coins, you can see if it is a good thing."

At this time, the old pig noticed Huangshi, his eyes lit up, "Good guy, you have been doing well recently, it seems that you are mixing well", the old pig who has not seen him for more than a year can see at a glance that Huangshi seems to have gained a lot of weight, and even the spirit is different. "Where am I like you, you are still a boss, and I am a part-time worker, look at you, now your hair is getting less and less, but this belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it looks like it has developed a lot."

"Brother, to tell the truth, it's a mouthful of food, this line is difficult to do", "By the way, why do you have time to go back to your hometown recently, and do this", the old pig pulled Huangshi into the store, took the paper bag, poured the copper coins on the table, put on his glasses, sat at the table and carefully studied the copper coins, Huangshi saw that he was busy, and he also pulled a chair to sit next to him, so he had time to observe the old pig's shop, and found that the collection in the old pig store is obviously more than last year, and even the little sister has received an extra one, The two little girls over there are talking to the guests, and it's obvious that the business is good.

Seeing the old pig look at the copper coins one by one, and make it into several piles, the most clapping his hands after the most reluctant, Huangshi was a little looking forward to it, "how", "good quality, better preservation, some are valuable, some are worthless", "Hmmm, you see this Xuande Tongbao, the deep version is heavy, the thin rust and green rust are worth it, one is now about 140 yuan, this Yongle Tongbao is not good, the highest blue rust is 14 yuan, and the other Hongwu Tongbao or something is between 10 and 15 yuan, this is Hongzhi Tongbao Xiaoping money, But the production is not fine, the current price is about 50 yuan, but these Zhengde Tongbao, it is strange, because there is no dragon and phoenix and peony on the back, and you have to study it." "How can there be dragons, phoenixes and peonies"? "Because there was no coinage during the period of the Zhengde Emperor at that time, the Zhengde Tongbao that survives now is the winning product of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China when the folk cast the most, its technology and materials are different, mostly brass-based. There are many dragon patterns, dragon and phoenix patterns, peonies, etc. on the back. And this one of yours is making money, which is really strange. ”
