Chapter Twenty-Three: A Garden and a Residence
The Captain was a kind of staff set up by Cao Cao, who were professional tomb robbers who stole gold and silver treasures from ancient tombs to expand their military salaries.
"Touching gold" is the most technical genre in the inverted bucket, and it has the longest origin, and many of the common lip dictionary mouths in the industry are mostly spread from the mouth of the captain of the gold school.
For example, tomb robbers nowadays say that they are "inverted" craftsmen, but why do they call tomb robbers "inverted buckets"? I'm afraid many people can't say, this word is first derived from a vivid description of the tomb robbery by the captain of the touching gold, the Chinese tomb, in addition to the repair in the belly of the mountain, most of them have sealed mounds, taking Qinling as an example, the shape of the mound is just like a bucket for measuring rice, and in turn buckled on the ground, the underground palace of the Ming weapon is in the bucket, and the easiest way to take out the Ming weapon is to turn the bucket over and take it away, so it is called an inverted bucket.
Long Ziyan is not as impressed as Brother Kan at this person, now it seems that Chen Gaosen's identity is likely to be the man in black in the treasure cave, just like this, it is impossible to determine at all, I want to see what is in the bag in his hand, and I can't think of a way, so I can only inquire a little bit.
"Since Brother Chen is the captain of the Golden School, then the people who came to this poor mountain and remote place are not only to ask for accounts, but also to say which feng shui treasure land, let's get acquainted with each other, and also take our brothers to make a small fortune."
Chen Gaosen looked a little flustered, smiled humbly and said: "What's the matter, I'm just a stone gang (a group of people who do jade business), shoveling land (door-to-door purchase), and running errands." ”
"Then Brother Chen usually goes to the ground?"
"If you have less money, we are greedy for life and afraid of death, just make a small amount of money to support ourselves, it's really good, and this will make him a lot of money next time."
"What did Brother Chen dig for this time? It opened my eyes. ”
"This makes Brother Chen a little embarrassed, I can't just open this thing and let others see it, two brothers, forgive me."
"Oh, it's okay, I'll just ask."
Along the way, there was silence in the car, Brother Kan drove the car, asking Chen Gaosen from time to time, and Long Ziyan glanced at Chen Gaosen and the bag in his hand through the reflector.
Soon, the car drove into the county seat, and Brother Kan drove to Xiama Street, which is a bustling antique street, with people coming and going, and the traffic is busy, which is not blocked in the middle of the road.
Chen Gaosen picked up his bag and said: "Two brothers, I'm really embarrassed, I still have something to do, so I'll get off the car first, thank you all the way, I'll invite you to dinner next time." After saying that, he got out of the car, waved his hand to the two and turned his head away.
Long Ziyan, who had been looking at Chen Gaosen, found that Chen Gaosen exhaled deeply the moment he turned his head to leave, and his nervous expression also relaxed.
"Look, Little Dragon King, it's time to get off the street, wait for me to park the car." Brother Kan drove the car to the side of the street, and just as a car left, a parking space was vacated, and Brother Kan quickly parked the car.
Walking into Xiama Street, it is already evening and the street is still lively, countless shops, stalls, and a dazzling array of goods, dazzling and dizzying; There is no shouting here, only the sound of bargaining one after another.
There is an ancient building in the center of Xiama Street, it is clearly Luoxia Building, Luoxia Building is magnificent, majestic and majestic, but it is actually a building of all wood structure building, there is not a single iron nail up and down the whole building, what is more surprising is that for more than a few hundred years, although Luoxia Building has undergone several earthquakes, it has not suffered any damage, and has not experienced a major fire, the building is high and four sides are thirty-three meters long, that is, the ancient nine zhang and nine feet, in ancient China nine is the extreme of the yang number, meaning that it can not be surpassed.
Brother Kan is familiar here, every time the upside-down artifact comes here to shoot, if he finds something good, with his three-inch tongue, he can always eat an elixir (buy a high-value antique at a low price).
The two of them didn't pay attention to these roadside shops at all, walked into the depths of Xiama Street, and came to a shop called "Yuan Yiju" next to Luoxia Building.
"Garden and a house!" Brother Kan said, "This is a store where my father and I often come to, the manager is called Liu Yonghong, the person is very good, and the relationship with my family is not bad, the price is fair, and he is also the No. 1 person in this Xiama Street, with a lot of influence, I will introduce you to you later." ”
Long Ziyan looked at the "Garden One Residence", this is a very simple old house, the shape resembles the Luoxia Building, it may not be as good as the Luoxia Building, after the baptism of the years, the face has been carved out of deep wrinkles.
There is a deep and heavy big wooden door in front of the house, there is a smooth copper ring hanging on the left and right sides of the door, the old house is lined up next to the Luoxia Building, the quiet and ancient atmosphere makes people feel as if they are in the ancient times hundreds of years ago, drink a pot of fragrant tea, laugh and talk about the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Brother Kan took Long Ziyan to the front of the gate, and there was a couplet hanging on both sides of the door: immediately look at the flowers in a garden, and watch the flowers under the horse to get together.
"This is a residence in Xiama Street Park, a fate to get together, a good name, go in and take a look." The dragon's eyes knocked on the copper ring in front of the door, and pushed the door probe to look around.
As soon as you enter the house, you will see a narrow house, and there is an ancient well in the courtyard that I don't know what age it is, and there is only a table and a few chairs in the house, which is really very simple.
Brother Kan took Long Ziyan to carefully climb up the wooden staircase that had been crooked, the walls of the room on the second floor were made of wooden boards, all blackened, and the earthen walls were mottled, as if telling the age of time, and some of the doors were gone.
The two climbed up to the second floor, went around to a hut at the very edge, and pushed the door open, there was an old-fashioned incandescent lamp on the wall of the hut, which emitted a yellow and dim light, and there was a door in the house, and when he pushed it open, there was an iron staircase underneath the door.
"When I arrived, the backyard below was the garden house, and the front was just an old house with a brand, and the back was its true face."
"It's a little eerie to look at."
"It's okay, Little Dragon King, it's just that a few people have died, and it's just a ghost every once in a while, and nothing else." Brother Kan patted Long Zi's eyes.
"Trouble...... Haunted! Long Zi's eyes kept looking around, for fear that a ghost would suddenly appear beside him.
"Hahaha! Scare you, look at your cowardice, haha! Brother Kan mercilessly laughed at Long Ziyan.
The angry Long Ziyan kicked Brother Kan down the stairs, if Brother Kan hadn't grabbed the handrail quickly, I'm afraid he would have rolled down.
"Okay, let's stop making trouble, let's get down to business, I'm going to buy you red beans when I'm done."
As soon as Long Ziyan heard this, he was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and when he caught up with Brother Kan, Brother Kan ran down the stairs and met a person.
"Mingzu is here, your father is fine, but I haven't seen him for a while."
The person who came was Liu Yonghong, who was in charge of "Yuan Yiju", everyone called Brother Liu, thirty-three years old, and there was a sense of vicissitudes of life in his youth, with black and dense hair, a pair of deep eyes under the sword eyebrows, and his appearance seemed to be debauched, but the inadvertent light in his eyes made people dare not underestimate it.
"Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, my father is fine, this time I came to introduce you to a brother, it will be convenient to move around often in the future."
"It's this good-looking, radiant gentleman brother." Liu Yonghong stretched out his right hand to Long Ziyan.
Long Ziyan also stretched out his right hand and held it and said: "A gentleman doesn't dare to be, my name is Long Ziyan, I have heard Brother Kan talk about you, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary." ”
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Long came to my "garden and a residence" today, but there is a place for me to help, our brothers have met once, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”
Brother Kan opened his mouth to mention Long Ziyan and said: "There has been a change in my brother's family, I am in a hurry to use the money, and I want to sell a treasure in the family, I don't come here to help sell it, you are an insider, and I want to sell it at a good price." ”
"How big should I be, a small thing, something? I'll take a look. ”
Long Ziyan took out the beast head agate cup and handed it to Liu Yonghong, Liu Yonghong took the beast head agate cup and looked at it carefully, knocked on the agate cup gently, and asked with a light in his eyes: "Brother Long, where did you get this agate cup, this cup is finely crafted, the whole body is glassy, crystal magnificent, this is a genuine treasure, not to mention a thousand years." ”
"To tell you the truth, this is what I found when I was shaving potatoes with Brother Kan, and if it weren't for the urgent need at home, I wouldn't have sold him."
Liu Yonghong continued to look at the agate cup in his hand, and didn't notice a person walking behind him, who stretched out his fist and hit him on the back, and the agate cup in his hand fell off his hand.
