Chapter 174: Ivory Flute

"Sir, are you going back to the hotel now?"

"Go straight back to the hotel."

Los Angeles International Airport is not very far from the hotel booked by Zheng Jing, more than half an hour away.

Looking at the bustling Los Angeles, Zheng Jing did not have the slightest idea of exploring.

"Sir, the hotel has arrived."

In the blink of an eye, the Hilton Hotel appeared in front of you.

Getting out of the car, Zheng Jing tidied up his clothes and walked in.

When he came to the hall, Zheng Jing glanced at it and found that there were quite a few people.

Coming to the front desk, Zheng Jing took out the information of the reserved room.

After checking in, Zheng Jing was led by the housekeeper to the presidential suite on the top floor.

The extravagant décor is a sight to behold.

"Sir, do you have any other commands?"

"No, you go down first, I'll call you something."

"Okay, you can get some rest."

When the housekeeper left, Zheng Jing went to the bathroom to take a shower first.

Standing in front of the window, Zheng Jing could see the beach and Los Angeles International Airport in the distance.

I took out my phone and looked at the time, and it was only four o'clock.

It was still early, and it was boring to stay in the hotel, so Zheng Jing took out a detailed map of Los Angeles.

He's going to see what's going on around him.

By removing the entertainment venues, the range of options is much less.

"Hey, there's still a place like this?"

Zheng Jing suddenly saw on the map that there was a park not far from the hotel.

This park is very ordinary, but the most famous thing about this park is that there is a spontaneous crowd of people here.

It can also be said to be a small bazaar.

The market has been held in the park for more than 30 years, and by now, the name of the market has spread throughout Los Angeles.

The place is good to go there and see.

Coming out of the hotel, Zheng Jing looked at the direction, and then walked towards the park on foot.

Millie Park is located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, about 10 minutes from the Hilton Hotel.

There are many evergreen trees planted in the park, and the open space in the center of the park is full of stalls.

In front of these stalls, there were people standing.

Zheng Jing came in from the gate of the park and followed the steps to the center.

Seeing that there were so many people here, Zheng Jing knew that he had come to the right place.

When the people around saw Zheng Jing, a yellow-skinned foreigner, they all looked at him curiously.

Zheng Jing came to a stall and stopped.

"Is there anything you like, sir?"

The stall owner is a white-bearded old man.

Looking at the age, he should be in his sixties.

The stalls were miscellaneous, with everything.

Pick up an old army green kettle.

"This is the water bottle used by the Northern army during the Civil War, and you can take it for eighty dollars if you like."

When Zheng Jing heard this price, he hurriedly put the kettle down.

He didn't like it.

Hey, this thing is okay.

At the stall, Zheng Jing suddenly saw a rococo-style porcelain.

The shape of the porcelain is a fruit bowl.

On the front of the plate, there are several fruit patterns, and on the bottom edge of the plate, one on the left and one on the right, there are two fruit trees. ….

Looking at the tire glaze, this plate should be from before the eighteenth century.

He couldn't guess the exact time.

"How much does this item cost?"

"It's a fruit bowl, if you want it, give me three hundred dollars."

Hearing the price the stall owner said, Zheng Jing knew that he didn't know that this plate was Rococo style, something made by the Royal British Porcelain Factory.

Zheng Jing casually glanced at Zhou

Wai, no one was staring at him.

In order not to make people suspicious, Zheng Jing said a price.

"No, no, no, three hundred dollars is too much, one hundred dollars."

"Okay, if you agree to buy it now."

Zheng Jing's dragon slaying knife was particularly powerful, and it slashed at the stall owner's artery.

Hearing this price, the stall owner shook his head and said, "This price is too low, two hundred dollars."

Seeing someone coming here, Zheng Jing was not bargaining, and took out two hundred dollars and handed it over.

After getting the plate, Zheng Jing took a look at it with the identification function, and it was exactly the same as he guessed.

This plate was manufactured in the late eighteenth century and then crossed the ocean to the American continent.

It was also Zheng Jing's luck that this plate was hidden in a cellar during the Civil War.

The other day someone found the cellar while cleaning up the farm and found this plate.

Picked up a big leak.

The price given by this plate system is 300,000~500,000 dollars.

He only spent two hundred dollars to get it, but it wasn't a big leak.

With a plate in his hand, Zheng Jing looked at the stall again, but found nothing good.

Leaving from this stall, Zheng Jing came to the stall next to him.

The stall owner was a black man, he couldn't tell his age, there were several people in front of his stall, and when he saw Zheng Jing coming, the big old black showed his big white teeth at Zheng Jing.

"Hey friend, do you want to buy something, I have something more beautiful in my stall than the plate in your hand."

As he spoke, he handed Zheng Jing a storage box made of mahogany.

There's nothing wrong with this storage box, it's just that the pattern on it is a little unbearable to look at.

I don't know which *** it is, but I actually drew a *** portrait on this storage box.

The portrait features five *** beauties in various seductive poses.

The pose is seductive and eye-catching.

Whether it is the guests on the stall or the people passing by, they will look at the *** beauty on the storage box curiously, and then show a smile on their lips.

"This thing is so good, I can't afford it, so you might as well keep it for yourself."

Zheng Jing saw the eyes of the people next to him looking at him, and Zheng Jing said calmly.

Seeing that Zheng Jing didn't seem to be interested in this storage box, the stall owner hurriedly said, "This is a good thing, made of mahogany, and there is a portrait drawn by a body artist on it."

"I don't want much, you take five hundred dollars."

Zheng Jing didn't speak, but picked up a milky white and slightly yellowish thing from the stall.

"How do you sell this thing?"

Seeing that Zheng Jing seemed to be really unhappy with the storage box, the stall owner also put the storage box behind his back.

Seeing what Zheng Jing was holding, it was something he had found in a backward tribe of Indians, and it seemed to cost him ten dollars at the time. ….

He also saw it when Zheng Jing was shopping at the stall next to him just now, he thought about it and said, "Two hundred dollars."

"Deal."

Hearing the price, Zheng Jing didn't even pay back the price, and directly paid for it.

Seeing Zheng Jing so neat, the old man was stunned, and he didn't even hear the guests on the side ask him about the price.

Good guy, when he said this price, he was still thinking that Zheng Jing was going to bargain, he was waiting for him to bargain, who knew that he didn't pay back the price at all, so he agreed directly.

This made him a little uncomfortable.

didn't care about the somewhat confused old man, Zheng Jing took his things and left.

After leaving Da Lao Hei's booth some distance, Zheng Jing was overjoyed in his heart.

This is an eight-hole pan flute, also called pan flute, milky white, slightly yellow, milky white to the touch.

This feeling is very familiar to Zheng Jing, and he will take it out of the space every day to appreciate it.

That's right

This pan flute is made of ivory.

The pan flute is popular in Europe, America and South America, and its specific origin is somewhat unclear.

However, judging from the data, this instrument has appeared in many countries at a very early age.

In Greece, the pan flute was straight and did not have that arc-shaped shape.

The Greek pan flute, called Syrinx, existed as early as 2500 B.C., and scholars have found evidence of the pan flute in the islands of the Aegean Sea.

In addition to Greece, there are also pan flutes in China.

It is said that the Yellow Emperor once sent his minister Ling Lun to collect bamboo to make pan flute, but the length of the bamboo was uneven, so the instrument was named "uneven", which refers to the pan flute. It is also the origin of the idiom "uneven".

In addition to China, there are also pan flutes in Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas.

On the Southeast Asian side, the most special form of pan flute is found in Vietnam, commonly known as the cyclic pan flute, and locally known as Dding-dek.

This kind of dindek flute is used in a name called the Od ode.

Shadows of the pan flute have also been found in other countries in Southeast Asia: in Mong in Viet Nam and in Isan in the northeast, another flat flute has been found.

In addition to this, in Indonesia and the islands of Oceania, especially in the Solomon Islands and Maleta, bunches of pan flutes Auare and flat pan flutes Auare are also found.

The rest of the country has also seen a lot.

The pan flute is a small type of instrument, and very few people have seen it.

There are even fewer flutes made of ivory.

Although the appearance is a little yellowish, it doesn't matter, it means that this pan flute has been around for a long time, and if it is sold out, people may pay a high price when they see these yellow traces.

I checked it with the system, and sure enough, it was made of ivory, the time was 1996, and it has been more than 20 years now.

Looking at the final value, the lowest price is 200,000 and the highest is 500,000 dollars.

Such a high price also surprised Zheng Jing.

I didn't expect that the palm-sized pan flute would be sold for such a high price.

Thankfully, he wasn't ready to sell.

Looking at the stalls around him, Zheng Jing knew that he had come to the right place.

Unexpectedly, he found two good things just after coming here to see two stalls, and Zheng Jing was not ready to sell them.

Such items will definitely become less and less in the future, and the price will definitely get higher and higher.

Seeing the stall next to him, Zheng Jing walked over.

There were a lot of people in front of this stall, and the whole stall was blocked.

If it weren't for his strength and good temper, he might not have been able to squeeze in.

Seeing the items on the stall, Zheng Jing called out to the good guys, no wonder there are so many people crowded here, it turns out that the stalls are selling some World War II items.

I don't know where the stall owner got the things, but there are so many.

Seeing an item on the stall, Zheng directly held it in his hand.
