Chapter 5 Lying on the Ground

In less than a while, Fat Chen soaked the noodles and returned to his seat to eat them with a snort.

Eating looks like he hasn't eaten enough in his life, and he doesn't care about other people's eyes at all, this is also where Xu Annian admires fat people, no matter what others think of him, it's good to live calmly and comfortably, just ask how many people can achieve this.

Xu Annian took advantage of the soup to secretly look at the woman named Siyun with his spare eyes.

I saw that she was eating noodles slowly, eating very elegantly, compared with Chen Fatzi, it was a heaven and an earth, her small lips were closed one by one, giving men infinite reverie, and her little face was slightly flushed because of eating noodles, she was really a seductive goblin.

At this time, the atmosphere was very quiet, no one made a sound, only the sound of the fat man eating noodles echoed in the carriage.

At that moment, the mysterious old man sitting across from him spoke

"Young man, where are you two going?"

Xu Annian didn't expect this old man to suddenly ask himself, obviously stunned, he didn't know what to say, for fear that saying the wrong thing would affect the next trip.

Fortunately, the fat man is clever, after all, he is doing business with his family, and he must be much better than Xu Annian in terms of dealing with the world, so he took over the conversation

"Old man, let's go to Peng'an County, there is a relative, we want to buy some mountain goods to do some small business!"

The fat man laughed innocently, his face was not red and his heart was not beating when he lied, after all, he was out of the house, he was false and real, and in this society now, there are a few people who will talk the truth.

The old man nodded indifferently, the fat man was born to be familiar, and he was very excited when he had something to say, so he hurriedly asked

"Old man, looking at your old spirits, you must be doing a big deal, and your temperament is like this! Must be a big boss! ”

When the beautiful woman next to her heard this, she burst out laughing.

Seeing that the beauty was amused by herself, Fat Chen became more energetic and said busily

"Sister Beauty, look at you, what are you laughing at, my eyes are accurate, this old man is sitting here, and his momentum is three feet higher, what else can he be if he is not a big boss, and there is a beautiful sister like you next to him, how can ordinary people do it!"

The woman named Siyun smiled again and looked at the old man

"Elder Zheng, if you want to do what he said, you are really a big boss! Hee-hee! ”

Looking at the smiling beauty of the flowers, the fat man's hara almost flowed out, such a level of beauty, without a little concentration, really can't hold it.

Looking at the fat man who was about to lose his temper, Xu Annian kicked him in shame, and Chen Fat himself realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly diverted the topic to cover up his gaffe just now

"Then old man, what are you doing?"

"Antique!"

The old man said two words sonorously, with a proud expression,

When the fat man heard this, his eyes brightened.

"It's too coincidental, old man, I'm also doing antiques, in our place, I'm a famous antique dealer, the people in the rivers and lakes are called the little prince of antiques, and the antique Wu Yanzu is below!"

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows, proudly made a scissorhand shape, and his chubby big face was matched with eyes the size of mung beans.

The beauty smiled even more

"Antique Wu Yanzu? Hee-hee, I think you look like an antique Wu Mengda!"

Fat Chen touched his double-layered chin, and he was not angry, and said with a smile

"It's okay, Wu Mengda is Wu Mengda, at least I know Stephen Chow!"

After speaking, I was interested,

"Old man, I have a baby here, my grandfather gave it to me, saying it was a good thing, let me carry it with me to keep safe, you always show me, how much is it worth?"

Chen Fatzi's little eyes widened, and he took out a jade pendant from his pocket and prepared to show it to the old man, first, he really wanted to see how much this jade pendant was worth, and second, he wanted to see if this old man was making antiques.

The old man's eyes opened slightly, and he simply glanced at the jade pendant that the fat man took out, then closed his eyes again and shook his head.

When Fat Chen saw the old man's movements, he obviously didn't look down on the jade pendant in his hand, and his face was a little unbearable, so he hurriedly said

"Old man, what's the matter, my jade pendant is genuine, you didn't even look at it and gave it to me?"

The old man said flatly

"Some things don't need to be seen, good things can be felt at once!"

The fat man was a little unconvinced,

"What can I feel, I am a jade pendant in the late Qing Dynasty, many people have seen it and said yes, why don't you feel that I can't do this?"

The old man gently stroked his dragon's head crutch

"The real antique is not in its age, shape, appearance, but in its story!"

Hearing this, Xu Annian and Chen Fatzi glanced at each other, and knew in their hearts that through these few words, it was proved that this old man did have some ability.

Xu Annian was busy playing the game, so that the fat man should not be too embarrassed

"Old man, don't be like my friend, he loves to blow and whistle, what an antique little prince, he has just seen a few antiques, knows a little fur, he has been wearing this jade pendant on his body, and he doesn't quite understand, I met you today, help him answer it!"

The beauty next to her also seems to have a good impression of the fat man and Xu Annian, and she also helps

"Elder Zheng, just talk about this, I'm also curious!"

The old man looked at the beautiful woman next to him and sighed,

"Okay, little fat man, let you increase your knowledge today, antiques are not fake, your jade pendant is indeed real, it is a thing in the late Qing Dynasty, but you have to remember that things are also divided into high and low status, for example, can the jade pendant brought by a commoner and the jade pendant brought by the emperor be a value, so who is the owner of the jade pendant determines how high the value of the jade pendant is, just say that you are a jade pendant, the material is called Hetian topaz, this topaz is a very rare colored material in Hetian jade, The use of any previous historical period is not as large as that of the Qing Dynasty, and all topaz jade objects are finely carved, which is a very fine product.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the dragon is the emperor's totem, and this phoenix pattern represents the queen, the hierarchy is very strict, so first confirm that you are the queen's object, plus it is a nine-tailed, on behalf of the queen's love and gift, indicating that this thing is from a queen's hand. Hearing this, Fat Chen's saliva was about to flow out

"What, I'm the queen's shot, isn't that priceless, haha, An Nian, did you hear it, your fat man sent it, my grandfather really didn't lie to me!"

Chen Fatzi's eyes lit up, and he stroked the jade pendant in his hand, as if there were endless piles of banknotes in his hand.

Looking at the appearance of Chen Fatzi's wealth fan, the old man waved his hand

"Don't be happy too early, I haven't finished talking yet, you take a closer look at the jade pendant in your hand, the top of the phoenix's head, the inconspicuous position is engraved with the words filial piety, the entire Qing Dynasty, there is such a nickname of the Queen Mother, just think about it, it is the famous Empress Dowager Cixi!"

"Cixi?"

Everyone took a deep breath, but they didn't expect the fat man's object to be the Empress Dowager Cixi's thing? It's really eye-catching, Cixi, a historical figure, is too famous and controversial, she is the mother of Qing Muzong. The surname is Yehenara, a native of Manchuria with the Yellow Flag. In 1852, he was elected to the palace by Emperor Xianfeng, and was named a noble concubine in 1857. Mu Zongli, honored as the Queen Mother, honored as Cixi. In the Muzong and Dezong dynasties, the curtain was successively lowered to listen to the government for 47 years. After major events, he can recognize people, be decisive, be happy in his later years, be pampered, and be in disorder. The Wushu coup d'état and the Gengzi fist rebellion were the culprits. Later generations often say that it was Cixi's erosive pleasures that ruined a century of China's time.

Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, the old man nodded with satisfaction and continued

"You take the jade pendant and look down, under the phoenix is the image of a cow lying on the ground, although lifelike, vivid, but you must know that the imperial court at that time, the hierarchy was strict, and each official position corresponding to it had a relevant pattern to represent his identity.

The pattern of the prince and the king of the county is a five-clawed dragon, the pattern of Baylor is a four-clawed python, the pattern of the duke, the marquis, and the earl is nine pythons, and the next official position, the pattern of the civil official is represented by flying birds, which are the first grade crane, the second grade of the golden pheasant, the third grade of the peacock, the fourth grade of the cloud goose, the fifth grade of the white pheasant, the sixth grade of the heron, the seventh grade of the Hongshu, the eighth grade of the quail, and the ninth rank of the finch. For military attachés, they are beasts, the first rank is the unicorn, the second grade is the lion, the third grade is the leopard, the fourth grade is the tiger, the fifth grade is the bear, the sixth grade is the biao, the seventh and eighth grades are rhinoceros, and the ninth grade is the seahorse. It can be seen that the patterns on your jade pendant do not have these, which means that they are not given to officials. And looking at the jade pendant is the image of a buffalo, and according to the documents, the dynasty at that time gave the image of the cow to the eunuchs of the dynasty, representing their hard work in the palace, diligent, loyal and reliable, in addition to your overall carving is very exquisite, it cannot be an object for ordinary eunuchs, it must be a eunuch with a certain status or a certain merit, think about this thing is Cixi reward, or to an important eunuch around him, the owner of the jade pendant is about to come out! ”

"Li Lianying!?"

Hearing this, Xu Annian said it unconsciously

Who would have thought that the jade pendant that the fat man wears every day turned out to be a eunuch's, and it was also that of the famous eunuch Li Lianying?

The old man nodded when he heard Xu Annian's words

"Yes, young man, I thought of it at once, so this jade pendant was given to Li Lianying by Cixi at that time, it is called Lying Niu Fudi Pei, to affirm his contribution to the royal family! This object itself is still good, but it is with the wrong master, blind to these carvings and jade, foolish and don't know how to do it, maybe it can be sold at a good price, but if you meet the owner of the goods, when you take it out, you have to stay away from you, the things that the eunuch once wore, it is not good to say! ”

When Chen Fatzi heard this, he couldn't help but burst into foul language, he never dreamed that the jade pendant that he had been wearing on his body as a treasure turned out to be a eunuch's casual item, thinking about the appearance of a eunuch touching the jade pendant like a treasure many years ago, Chen Fatzi was disgusted, and wanted to throw it out, but when he thought that it was worth a little silver, he put it back in his pocket and scolded him

"I'll deal with it quickly when I go back, it's disgusting! This thing turned out to be something from a eunuch who didn't have a lower body! I still treat it as a treasure, it's really hard for me! I'm so miserable! ”

Seeing the fat man crying without tears made everyone feel funny.

And Xu Annian also glanced at the old man, but he didn't expect that the old man could distinguish so many things after such a simple look, and sure enough, the old people with the old words were the top existences in the industry he was involved in. Now it is certain that this old man must be a man of great ability.

Xu Annian arched his hand at the old man,

"Thank you for the old man's teaching, or my brother would still be in the dark!"

The old man waved his hand, then closed his eyes and stopped talking, at this time Xu Annian really felt that this old man was full of mystery, sure enough, the world of the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger.

Everyone has their own secrets, including himself.
