Chapter 15 The Antique Market
Just when I finished eating, there was a knock on the door of the house, I shouted to come in, and then two policemen walked in, they asked me about the situation, I think what happened at sea is not to tell them, they don't necessarily believe it, I said that the fishing boat I sat on encountered a big storm, and then it was in distress, I don't know what happened to the others, the police brought my clothes, fortunately my documents and bank cards are there, but the dagger left by my grandfather is missing, I asked the police if there are other things, They said no, did they leave it in the sea? Although this broken dagger is useless, but after all, it is a relic of my grandfather, so I lost it, I was really depressed, the police went back after recording the transcript here, after I sent the police away, I sat down in a daze, I guess I couldn't find the dagger.
"Brother Tian, what's wrong with you?" Xia Qi asked with big eyes flashing on the side.
"Oh, it's nothing, I lost a very important thing, a relic left to me by my grandfather." I sighed and said regretfully.
"Ah, it's a pity, it's not easy to find it in the sea, you better don't think about it first, pay more attention to rest." Xia Qi said with concern.
"Oh, by the way, I have a bank card now, I'll give you back your money later, I'm really bothering you these days." I just remembered that I should have returned Xia Qi's money first, but I was still a little disappointed in my heart, did she not come if I returned the money to her?
"What's the hurry, wait until you're well, let's talk about it when you're discharged from the hospital, I'm not in a hurry, hehe."
"Alright then, hopefully I'll be discharged soon." Hearing that Xia Qi was not in a hurry to ask for money, I couldn't help but be happy, so that I could stay with her for a few more days, and I couldn't say why, I always felt very happy with this innocent girl.
The days passed quickly, Xia Qi sent me something to eat every day, my injuries healed quickly, I slowly became very familiar with Xia Qi, and the distance between each other was a little closer, just one morning, when I woke up, I suddenly felt hard in my waist, a little panicked, I quickly turned over and looked, I was a little confused, the little dagger was under me, what was going on? Who sent it back to me? That's impossible, isn't it? If someone came into my room, I wouldn't be unaware? It's weird.
When Xia Qi came, I was holding a dagger in a daze, I have been looking at it like this since I got up, and I didn't find anything special about it, what secrets does it have?
"Hey, Brother Tian, where did you get a knife? I happened to bring an apple, come, I'll peel one for you to eat. After Xia Qi finished speaking, he didn't want me to say anything, and took the dagger from my hand.
"Ah, this knife is quite heavy." Xia Qi was taken aback by the weight of the dagger, and then she took an apple and began to peel it, but she didn't cut it after cutting it for a long time.
"What a broken knife you have, you can't even cut an apple." Xia Qi then threw it to me.
"Uh, Kiki, this isn't a fruit knife, this is what my grandfather left me, I think it's an antique." I said with a smile on the side.
"You said it earlier, wasting my time, you wait, I'll wash the apples." Xia Qi pouted, took a few apples and went out.
I was really a little helpless about Xia Qi's temper, I then put away the dagger, and after I was discharged from the hospital, I would see if I could find the second master and them, and see if they knew the origin of the dagger and the jade pendant, but I didn't know where to find them, it was a mess.
Time flies quickly, I have been hospitalized for almost a month, the doctor took a film for me again, our injuries have all healed, we can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, the next day, Xia Qi came to pick me up, I paid all the hospital fees, and then returned all the money Xia Qi cushioned to her, it seems that I should say goodbye to her, this may be the best memory of my life.
"Brother Tian, what are your plans?" Xia Qi said to me a little reluctantly.
"I still have a lot of work to do, and maybe we'll have to go our separate ways."
"Oh, then you remember to come and see me when you have time." Xia Qi lowered her head and folded her fingers, not knowing what to think.
"Well, definitely." I was about to say goodbye to Xia Qi, when suddenly I thought of something, "By the way, Qiqi, is there an antique city here?"
"Yes, I'll take you there!" Xia Qi raised her head and looked excited.
"Okay, I'm not familiar with this place anyway, as long as it doesn't delay your business." In fact, I also want to stay with her for a while, and when I look at him, I look like I can't ask for it.
"It's okay, just come with me." Then Xia Qi took my arm and walked outside the hospital.
We took a taxi and arrived at the antique city in a short time.
"Gold in troubled times, collection in prosperous times". Nowadays, collecting is becoming more and more a "national sport", and in the island city, more and more people are obsessed with collecting. Every weekend, the Changle Road antique market is lively, lined up with more than 100 stalls of dazzling "antique market" crowded with all kinds of "antiques", ancient jade, dishes, vases, incense burners, ivory carvings, pottery, purple sand, calligraphy and painting...... There are a lot of variety, and every day it attracts an endless stream of players to pick up the spills. But now, the antiques in the Changle Road antique market can be said to be a mixture of real and fake, and if you want to find the real thing, you have to be a real connoisseur.
When we came here, it was almost noon, the sun in the sky was not very poisonous, but the stall owner on the stall was drowsy, it was almost lunch time, the tourists and the buyers gradually dispersed, occasionally someone asked in the stall is not the real buyer, just out of curiosity to ask a few words, the small stall owner is too lazy to deal with them, the person left with interest.
Xia Qi came here as if everything was fresh, she picked up the jade bracelet on the stall from time to time to take a look, sometimes picked up a porcelain bottle to take a look, sometimes looked at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the stall for a while, nodded as if she understood or not, I don't know if I really see that this painting is good, or I think the poems on this painting are well written, I can't help but wonder when I see it, "Do you like anything?" I bought it for you, thank you so much for taking care of me this month. I said to Xia Qi with a smile.
"Brother Tian, you are so annoying, I don't take care of you for your things, if you say this again, I will really ignore you." Xia Qi pouted, twisted her head and said.
"Ouch, angry? It's me who is wrong, I just want to express my gratitude to you, I really mean nothing else. "I say it sincerely.
"Poof! Okay, I'm not angry, let's get your business done. Xia Qi couldn't help but laugh when she saw my serious face.
We walked to the front of one of the largest shops, only to see that the shop is very luxuriously decorated, the roof is made of antique glazed tiles, high ridge cornices, carved wooden windows, only to see a pair of couplets hung on both sides of the vermilion lacquer door, which reads "Take the time to be Bo Gu, enter the WTO and live strangely", a gold plaque hangs in the center, on which is written "Jufeng Zhai" three big characters. Walking into the store, the furnishings inside are also exquisite, a set of exquisite tea sets are placed on a table of eight immortals, two blue and white porcelain vases are placed symmetrically, there is a mahogany wooden chair on both sides of the table, a pair of "Huiqin Tu" is hung on the wall above the table, and there are two carved wooden cabinets next to the wall, which are worth a lot at a glance, one is full of porcelain, and the other is a painting scroll and ancient books. There is also a small coffee table next to it, two wooden stools next to the coffee table, it seems that it is convenient to talk about business, the guy inside is still napping when he goes in, it seems that he is also a little tired after a busy morning, this guy saw someone come in and quickly got up to greet him.
"This little brother, are you going to buy something, or are you going to sell something, or are you looking for us to estimate it?" This guy asked me politely with a smile.
"I'd like to see you if you know where they came from, and if so, I'll thank you!"
"Oh, that's it, it depends on whether the little brother's things are clean, if it's black, we won't accept it." This guy saw that there was no oil and water business, and his attitude not only changed.
"Black goods?" I looked at the guy suspiciously.
"It's something that was picked up in the sand." The guy said impatiently.
"Dust? I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm taking the relics left by my grandfather, and if you don't have the ability, I'll go to another house to see it." "I can't help but be a little angry when I see this guy's attitude, a little guy here dares to be unreasonable to me.
"Hehe, I said little brother, it's not me boasting about Haikou, if we can't see the things in the whole antique market, it's useless for you to go somewhere else, but let me see your things first, if it's the top grade, our shopkeeper can charge you at a high price." This guy was annoyed when he saw me, not only was his tone a little more polite, for fear of missing something good and being scolded by the shopkeeper.
I didn't say much, I directly took out the blood unicorn jade pendant and handed it to the guy, this guy took the jade pendant and looked at it, not only gasped, but also said to me with wide eyes, "Things from the Warring States period?" ”
"In my experience, this should be something earlier than Sengoku." I said a little helplessly, looking at this little guy like this, he can't see the origin of the jade pendant.
"Little brother, sit inside, I'll pour you a cup of tea first, you rest for a while, I have to ask our shopkeeper to come out and have a look." The young man poured us both a cup of tea and hurried in.
