Two o'clock in the morning!

Chen Shan rubbed his hazy eyes and walked out of the hotel and walked towards the position that the old man said.

The location of the ghost market turned out to be the flower, bird, fish and insect market, and then the above may feel that this is a residential area, moved, in fact, it is easy to find, out of the hotel, go directly from the left, see a small alley, turn in.

Chen Shan stood at the flower, bird, fish and insect market, no, it should be at the gate of the ghost market, and saw that there were people coming and going, and countless flashlights shone back and forth, which was much more lively than during the day.

The first time you come to the ghost market, you will inevitably be a little nervous, but after a turn, you will become familiar with it.

On both sides of the roadside, there are vendors with stalls, including jade, evil spirits, and talismans, but most of them are antiques. Chen Shan looked through it, these antiques seemed to have just been unearthed, and there was some soil on them, and he didn't know if they were real or fake, but the water was too deep for the antiques, and he never touched them.

He stopped in front of a stall full of antiques, but a compass on it caught his attention.

There was some dirt on the compass, he took it in his hand and looked at it, this thing should be a ternary disk, shook it, and the central pointer also turned a little.

"My compass was found in a Qing Dynasty tomb, how about it? Like? I'll give you a 20% discount. The stall owner said with a smile.

"How much?" Chen Shan asked.

The stall owner stretched out his right hand.

Chen Shan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, what does this mean? However, he also noticed that the stall owner was wearing a black coat, which just completely blocked his entire arm. He looked around and saw that the stall owners around him were the same, and noticed that someone had put his hand into the stall owner's robe, which was covered with a black cloth.

He put his hand into the stall owner's robe and covered it with a black cloth, but he felt the stall owner scratch his palm a few times, and it was a little itchy, but he didn't understand what it meant.

The stall owner took his hand back and said, "That's the price." ”

Chen Shan didn't understand what it meant, grabbed his hair and asked, "How much is this price?" ”

"You don't understand what I just gestured?"

"I don't understand."

The stall owner probably didn't expect this to be the case, he looked left and right, as if he felt that no one was paying attention here, and he stretched out his index finger: "That's the number." ”

Chen Shan asked tentatively, "One hundred?" ”

The stall owner's face sank, and he snatched the compass, threw it on the stall, and turned his head to look to the side.

Chen Shan didn't understand the doorway inside, and he was already anxious, and the stall owner's performance made him even more angry, so he stood up and said: "A hundred yuan is too little, you can say, who will you throw your face." ”

The stall owner said coldly: "If you don't want to buy it, you can make trouble." ”

Chen Shan was just about to speak, when someone suddenly pulled his arm, and when he looked back, it turned out to be the old man he saw during the day.

The old man pulled him aside and whispered, "Young man, you don't understand the rules, and it's normal for the stall owner to be angry." ”

Chen Shan said: "In the end, am I wrong? ”

"It's not that you're wrong, I'll tell you about it."

The old man sat on the small bench he carried with him, and said slowly: "There is a rule for trading in the ghost market, if anyone buys something, they need to negotiate the price in their sleeves, which is also to avoid being seen by other customers, think about it, if you don't buy it, it is seen, how can the stall owner sell at a higher price?" This is also a rule handed down from the old generation, called "Sleeve Inside". ”

Chen Shan understood what was going on, smiled awkwardly, and the anger in his heart disappeared.

"Let's go, I'll talk to the stall owner about the price for you, I'm an old man here, maybe I can give you a cheaper." The old man patted his ass and stood up.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Respect the old and love the young, this is what the master has taught since childhood, the rules that cannot be broken, and the old man is indeed for his good, this thank you is also sincere.

The old man and the stall owner explained the situation just now, and the stall owner's face softened a lot.

Next!

The old man put his hand into the other party's sleeve, covered it with a black cloth, and bargained for a while, then pulled his hand out and said in a low voice: "Young man, the price of this compass is a bit high, otherwise let's go to other places to have a look." ”

Chen Shan asked, "How much?" ”

The old man slowly spit out two words: "One hundred thousand!" ”

"Shhh

Chen Shan gasped, good guy, it's 100,000 when you open your mouth, why don't you grab the money? The master has saved money for eighteen years, and it is only 20,000 yuan, and a broken compass costs 100,000 yuan.

But he didn't say anything, or he would have to fight.

But he thought about it, he can make more money when the money is gone, but the baby is gone, but it is really gone, and he still has a million in his hand, which is not his own anyway, and if he spends it, he will spend it.

"Buy it!" Chen Shan Road.

"What did you say?" The old man's ears moved twice, and he thought he had heard it wrong, and looked at Chen Shan.

"I said buy the compass!" Chen Shan looked at the old man innocently, thinking that he had just said something wrong or not made it clear.

In fact, don't mention the shock in the old man's heart, those who play antiques generally have two dollars in their hands, but how old is this kid in front of him? At most, you're only twenty years old, right? Can you take out 180,000?

The old man couldn't help but take a closer look at Chen Shan, he was not dressed as well as his grandson, and he didn't look like he was from a rich family, so he couldn't help asking: "Are you really rich?" ”

Chen Shan nodded.

"Okay, but don't be in a hurry to buy it yet, old man, I think I still have some eyesight, I'll help you see the authenticity of things." After speaking, the old man squatted down, took the compass in his hand, and took out a magnifying glass, looking serious and serious.

After a while, the old man put down the compass, pondered for a moment, and said: "The thing is a real thing, but only in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, with a history of more than a hundred years, it is a little expensive." ”

When the stall owner heard this, he smiled and said, "Hey! Old man, although my thing is not worth so much money, but this thing is newly exchanged, and it is still fresh, and I have wasted a lot of my effort, and if I replace it with someone else, I may not be able to sell it. ”

The old man nodded: "That's right, the compass is a thing, if you don't understand it, you can take it back to your town, and it's not worth a few dollars. ”

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked, "Young man, do you like this thing, or do you ......?"

Chen Shan replied: "I am a feng shui master. ”

The old man showed a look of sudden realization: "Then it's not strange, it's just that a feng shui master of your age is really rare." ”

Obviously, the old man regarded Chen Shan as a self-taught half-taught feng shui master, so naturally he didn't take it to heart.

After swiping the card to pay, the stall owner wrapped the compass in a yellow cloth, put it in a delicate mahogany box, and handed it to Chen Shan.

Afterwards!

Chen Shan accompanied by the old man, and went around the ghost market, in the process of turning, he learned that the old man's family name is Qian, his wife died early, and there is a son below, who is doing business outside, and he can't see each other a few times a year, and only one granddaughter is by his side all the year round.

While chatting, Chen Shan's eyes swept over the stalls on both sides, and finally stopped at an item, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly walked over.

The old man was talking, and he noticed that no one responded, and when he turned around, there was still a trace of Chen Shan, and he searched for a while nearby before finding him in front of a stall.

At this time, Chen Shan was holding five flags and carefully examining them.
