Chapter 11 Yipintang
The earliest antique street did not specialize in selling antiques, but selling flowers and birds, so it is also called the flower and bird market, with the development, the emergence of selling antiques, the latecomers are on top, the profits of antiques are high, many shops have become monopoly antiques, and the flower and bird market has also become an antique street.
The antique street is different from other streets, it is a pedestrian street, vehicles are not allowed to enter, and stalls are allowed, so the most conspicuous thing when you enter the antique street is not those shops, but the stalls placed in a row on both sides of the street, there are flowers and plants, fish and insects, birds and beasts, and more are selling new and old handicrafts and antiques.
Wu Fan didn't come to shop today, he directly entered an antique shop with Ming and Qing characteristics, this is Yipintang, a friend of Wu's father, Li Qing, Wu Fan still remembers asking Uncle Li if he had read Mr. Jin's novel and came up with the name of the store, Uncle Li nodded directly and gave a positive answer, and said that 'Yipintang' is such a good name, it is a waste to use it for those garbage, and he wants to carry forward the name of Yipintang.
"Childe, welcome!" As soon as he entered the door, a greeting greeted Wu Fan in a soft voice, and this greeter was wearing Hanfu, which made people feel like they had returned to ancient times as soon as they entered.
Their family and Li Qing's family are world friends, but they usually just go to their house to play, but Wu Fan has only been here a few times, and he didn't expect such a big change.
In my memory, the whole shop is smaller, only a few real antiques, and now the shop seems to be bigger, it should be the next door to buy it and open up, but also divided into districts, there are special ancient calligraphy and painting area, ancient jade area, ancient porcelain area, numismatic area, comprehensive area (miscellaneous area). There are a lot of antiques on display, which are well organized and look very high-grade, and it seems that Uncle Li's business has gone up several steps over the years.
Before I came, I thought that Uncle Li's store was a small shop in the past, and there was no need to bother to find people, but now I saw that there were twenty or thirty clerks in the store, and there was no Uncle Li among them, so I couldn't help but smile bitterly and took out the phone and called Uncle Li.
"Xiao Fan? Why did you remember to call your Uncle Li, you kid, you haven't come to see Uncle Li after so long on vacation...... Xiaoling also asked me, didn't you forget her......" As soon as the phone was connected, Wu Fan hadn't spoken yet, and Uncle Li came to a big call, which made Wu Fan embarrassed.
"Uncle, I'm in your Yipintang." Taking advantage of Li Qing's breathing, Wu Fan finally said a word.
"You're in Yipintang? Okay, wait, I'll let Xiaoling come down and pick you up. ”
Within a minute, a young and beautiful girl wearing Hanfu women's clothes ran down from upstairs, inspecting something while running, and quickly locked on Wu Fan, Wu Fan saw the girl and raised a hand to greet her.
Seeing Wu Fan, the girl had a happy smile on her face, ran over and took his hand and asked, "Brother Xiaofan, are you looking for me?" ”
"Yes, Xiaoling is getting more and more beautiful!" Xiaoling was just eighteen years old, it was the time when the eighteenth change of the female university, I haven't seen her for half a year, and there has been a big change, I remember when I saw her half a year ago, she was still wearing a wide school uniform, and her body was flat, but now she is actually bumpy and convex, and her body has a curve, and she suddenly has a feminine taste, especially now wearing Hanfu, which is more attractive.
"Liar, you don't call people, call my dad's phone." Although Xiao Ling knew that Wu Fan was lying to herself, when she heard Wu Fan's praise, her face was still slightly shy, but she also enjoyed it very much.
Glancing at Wu Fan carefully, Xiao Ling said happily: "Brother Xiao Fan, I also applied for Sishui University, and we will be alumni in the future!" ”
"Sishui University is good, the school is in Chengcheng, you can go home at any time, don't worry about being homesick and crying, hehe!"
"I hate it, so people won't cry their noses!"
Wu Fan came to have something to do today, and after chatting for a while, he asked, "Is Uncle Li up there?" ”
"yes, I'll take you up."
The two of them talked and went up to the second floor, thinking that the second floor was the office area, but they didn't expect that there were some antiques on the second floor, but there was no partition on the second floor, but Wu Fan looked at it, and he could see from his layman's eyes that the second floor should be full of fine products, although the place was much larger than the first floor, but the value of the things placed here was not comparable to the first floor.
The place separated on the side of the second floor is the office area, Li Qing's office is in the innermost one, the office is decorated in an antique style, all wooden furniture, if you put the laptop on the desk away, this is an ancient study, at this time Uncle Li is video chatting with people in front of the computer, it seems to be talking about an antique exchange meeting, the sound from the computer is very noisy, it seems that it is not a one-to-one chat, but a video conference attended by many people.
Seeing that Uncle Li was busy, Wu Fan was not in a hurry, drinking the tea made by Xiaoling and chatting with her.
"Brother Xiaofan, do you have a girlfriend?"
As soon as he took a sip of tea, he almost squirted out, stared at the shy girl in his impression, and said, "No, what's wrong, you want to introduce one to your brother and me?" ”
"Liar, you are so handsome, how can you not have a girlfriend? Are all the girls you like blind to learn? Xiaoling seemed to be a little happy, but she seemed to be a little unconvinced.
"What are you lying about, there are a few beautiful ones in the school, either they look down on your brother and me with their eyes on the top of their heads, or they only like to be rich and handsome, and the others are too bad, and I can't look down on your brother, so now your brother is still single." Wu Fan is telling the truth, although he is a little handsome, but he is not outstanding in all aspects, his father is only a small section chief of the municipal government, and his mother is only a small manager, compared to those directors, mayors, chairmen or other families, there are a few girls in the school who can look down on him, people look down on him, some can look down on him, but those girls are either too ugly, or have had countless boyfriends, all of them have been played badly, how can he be a little machismo, how can he be able to look at it, he would rather be single than overuse.
"Great...... Well, then you are not allowed to have a girlfriend in private, and I will introduce you then. Xiao Ling was a little happy, a little shy, and a little insincere.
"Xiaofan, I haven't had a girlfriend yet, so how about you being my son-in-law? Everyone also knows the roots, and I can rest assured that Xiaoling will be handed over to you! I don't know when, Li Qing finished his work and said happily to Wu Fan.
"Dad, what do you say! Ignore you! Xiao Ling blushed with shame at Li Qing's words, but a pair of watery eyes were still staring at Wu Fan.
Wu Fan also blushed, not knowing how to answer, Xiao Ling has always been a little sister in his heart, and he has never thought about boyfriend and girlfriend. When Xiaoling saw that Wu Fan did not express her position, she was a little disappointed.
Li Qing couldn't help but look at the two villains, laughing heartily, and Xiaoling ran out embarrassedly.
Li Qing, who was laughing for a while, stopped and said, "Xiaofan, is there anything wrong with your Uncle Li today?" ”
"Uncle Li, I picked up some gold coins a few days ago, and I want you to help me take a look." Wu Fan took out a gold coin and put it on the table.
Li Qing picked up the gold coin, and when he saw the pattern and text on it, he couldn't help frowning, then picked up the phone, and after making a call, he said to Wu Fan: "I don't know much about gold coins, and I can't recognize that country, so I asked the numismatic expert Lao Lin to come over and take a look." No matter how you look at this gold coin, it has some history, and it should still be a circulating coin, which is strange...... How could I not think of a country with such gold coins in circulation? And it doesn't seem to have been seen before. ”
"Xiao Li, what kind of gold coin is it?" There was a neutral voice outside the door, and with the sound, an old man in his sixties walked in from outside, although the old man had gray hair, but his face was full of red light, and he was well maintained.
"Lao Lin, help take a look, this is the gold coin of that country, this is my nephew who brought it." Li Qing stood up and prepared a chair for the old man.
Xiao Ling also obediently made a cup of tea and came in, and did not go out again after coming in, but sat next to Wu Fan, and asked in a low voice in Wu Fan's ear: "Brother Xiao Fan, did you pick up this gold coin?" Where did you pick it up? ”
Xiaoling almost stuck to Wu Fan's body, smelling the faint girl's body fragrance, Wu Fan was a little distracted, and told the origin of the gold coin that had been prepared earlier: "I picked it up on Qinglong Mountain, and I was going to follow it to the donkey a few days ago, but who knew that I actually picked up the gold coin, so I changed my mind and came back first." ”
"You can't just pick up one, will you?"
"Of course, there is more than one, a total of ninety-nine, and I plan to keep nine for myself to play with, and sell the remaining ninety. You see, I've brought it all. As he spoke, he took out his money bag.
"What a beautiful money bag!" Xiao Ling saw the money bag and exclaimed, Wu Fan was speechless, it was for you to look at the gold coins, not the money bag.
"This money bag is good, what kind of animal skin is it made of?" Li Qing took the money bag and looked at it carefully, Xiao Ling was dissatisfied with Li Qing snatching it, but she didn't say anything more, just when they were looking at things, they could talk more with Brother Xiaofan.
"What kind of hides is this made of? Why can't I recognize it, and this pattern is actually born, not artificially drawn, how can I have a strange feeling when I look at it, it seems that this pattern is wrapped in money? Li Qing muttered to himself while looking at the money bag.
Wu Fan followed Li Qing's words and saw that the money bag was a natural rune, and most of the words in the magic world evolved from the magic rune, and that natural rune represented the meaning of money.
This money bag was sent by the magic bank, specially used to hold a money bag of one hundred gold coins, the money bag has a little magic breath on it, although I don't know what kind of animal skin it is, but Wu Fan can be sure that it is a first-level magic beast skin, and the magic breath on it is the breath of a first-level magic beast, and it is a gold magic beast.
"Xiao Li, I can't see that it's the gold coin of that country, but this gold coin is not only pure gold and beautiful, but also you see that this text is also very atmospheric, it is definitely not something that a small country can have, I want to take it and test it with a machine later." Lin Lao could see that he liked this gold coin very much, and he never put it down when he held it in his hand.
Li Qing didn't agree immediately, but asked Wu Fan, "Xiao Fan, what do you think?" ”
"Uncle Li, I just want you to help identify it and test it casually." Wu Fan said indifferently, he also wanted to see what could be measured, this machine would not test out that it was a magic world gold coin.
Lin Lao went out with the gold coin, and came back almost an hour later, with a test report, and as soon as he came in, he said loudly: "Xiao Li, it's amazing, this gold coin is actually five thousand years old, it's really ...... It's hard to imagine. ”
