Chapter 438: This Thing Can Be Sold Too?
A week later, Yanjing, the big willow tree trading market.
When Zhang Yang and his party arrived, the sun had already set.
He and Xiao Chu originally planned to take a look at where the place was first, and then go to the neighborhood to take a casual stroll, and wait until about ten o'clock in the evening, and then come to visit the big willow ghost market.
Unexpectedly, after arriving at the scene, the situation in the trading market startled Zhang Yang.
There were people everywhere.
The set up shed was filled with a wide variety of goods, and not even a single stall was empty.
Even in the vegetable market near Zhang Yang's house, there has not been such a grand occasion for many years.
Although Chu Ziqiang is dressed very low-key, for an old Yanjing like her, it can be seen at a glance that Xiao Chu's whole body is ordered in a century-old store in Wangfujing.
It's like telling you, "I might have a better baby here." β
"Learned." Xiao Chu nodded.
The latter only understood what he meant at this time, nodded obediently, and did not continue to mix blindly.
"Welcome, two distinguished guests."
So as soon as he got in the car, he asked Zhang Yang impatiently:
"Quick, Brother Yang, tell me, what's so fascinating about this aunt?"
Chu Ziqiang muttered to himself: "Damn, why are there so many people? β
"What do you want to see first?" Old Tang asked, standing behind the counter.
He mainly wanted to see if there was anything valuable here for Old Tang.
"The bracelet on his hand is also from the Qing Dynasty. But I suspect the emerald bracelet was her bait, used for fishing. β
"Brother Yang, she is ......"
He could see that Zhang Yang must have seen some antique treasure in his aunt, or a sign.
"When I look at the two of them, they are very powerful buyers." Auntie replied with a smile.
But when I walked in and looked, I found that there was a hole inside.
"We are here in the old city, and every family has a little treasure, and whoever is in trouble will sell us something."
"Hahaha, that's what I thought too." Auntie smiled contentedly.
"Auntie, you're right, we are indeed very powerful." Zhang Yang nodded.
The craftsmanship is still very good.
"Hard work."
"Now this kind of people who cut leeks offline are all proficient, and the people who know that [a full jar of water does not make a sound, and half a jar of water jingles] is the easiest to be fooled."
But where did you see it?
When Zhang Yang spoke, he raised his eyebrows vaguely at Xiao Chu.
"It's okay to be full of cotton, I'll ask you if it's green?"
"Who is this uncle?" Zhang Yang asked.
"It's green."
"I can do it all...... Why don't we go around the counter first? Zhang Yang proposed.
"Everyone comes to Big Willow, except for those Internet celebrities who do live broadcasts, everyone else is counting on making money with their eyesight. In fact, those of us who set up stalls often try our luck at other people's stalls. β
"Then you're early, there's no ghost market yet, and someone like me who came early is just here to occupy a place, and the stall won't come out until ten o'clock in the evening......"
She said in her heart that she was really right, the two people in front of her were the righteous Kaizi.
Although the young man on the left, Xiao Chu, is very richly dressed, he obviously listens to what the real handsome guy on the right, Brother Yang, says.
Behind him is a small signboard that reads "Old Tang Antiques".
"Eh, Xiao Chu, the aunt is kind enough to chat with us, don't you be so vigilant? When you come to the ghost market, everyone is here to make a fortune, right? β
"Whoever makes money doesn't make it, buying and selling is a win-win situation."
I used to sell ancestral property, but now I sell fakes?
Surely that can't be answered.
"Two handsome guys, you should be here to visit the Big Willow Ghost Market, right?" The aunt walked up to her and said.
Chu Ziqiang couldn't figure it out, there seemed to be ants crawling on his body.
As for why he is a eunuch, it is mainly because the smile on the shopkeeper's face is too fake, and there is a kind of Li Lianying's beauty.
"The price we gave them was also very appropriate, and after coming and going, word of mouth went out, and more and more people were willing to sell things to us, and the store gradually became bigger and stronger."
It really has the flavor of old Yanjing.
"You think I want to see it." Zhang Yang was almost laughed at by Xiao Chu's words, "I don't stare at her bracelet, how does she know that I understand jade, how can she believe that we are the fish she wants to catch?" β
Since the current big willow trading market is only for wholesale goods, the two of them don't plan to stay longer, and plan to go to the nearby food street first and come back later.
In addition, the aunt's bracelet is also very saying, a Qing Dynasty jade bracelet with a wide open door.
Here, driving all the way, Zhang Yang saw four antique shops, it is estimated that a small number of the shops are local old things, and most of the others are fakes imported from small workshops in other places.
"Brother Yang, you see, the things they sell are like traditional markets, there are no old goods, they are all brand new things."
"The two bosses, Gao Yi, can lend a helping hand to your neighbors when they are in trouble, and you two deserve to be rich." Zhang Yang deliberately exaggerated.
Revealing so many "flaws" hints at himself, of course Zhang Yang has to study it.
He followed his aunt's little electric donkey and drove all the way into the alley of the old community.
"Then bother."
Xiao Chu snorted coldly when he heard this, and asked rhetorically, "Powerful buyers?" You're talking about leeks, right? Do you look at us, like Kaizi? β
"You say this as if I'm really hungry......"
"His second uncle has such a string, and I heard that it cost a small 100,000."
The reason why he gave face so much was entirely because after the other party approached, Zhang Yang found out that the bamboo basket in the aunt's hand turned out to be an antique from the late Qing Dynasty.
"It's not too much. Since we're here today, let's do our best for the two bosses. Wait a minute, let's buy a little bit, you say, Xiao Chu? Zhang Yang continued to exert his strength and gave Chu Ziqiang a look.
The male boss, who is nicknamed "Old Tang", replied: "Now, the main thing we sell is the old goods we collected from the neighborhood. β
On the other side, Chu Ziqiang, who didn't know whether to interject or not, was about to suffocate.
"I'll make you tea."
But what made Xiao Chu a little incomprehensible was that Zhang Yang actually followed the aunt's words:
"Boss, it turns out that you are also a stall owner in the ghost market, so you should have a lot of good things there, right?"
"I'll lead the way later?"
"Cheng, then it's troublesome for the eldest sister." Zhang Yang nodded and agreed.
With this question, he almost shut down the two people who opened the antique store.
"Brother Yang, if you want to say that, in fact, I can see something. This old man, he wears crocodile leather shoes that are made in Tongsheng and custom-made. β
was in a hurry to interrupt the other party's speech, and obviously wanted to block the aunt's next sales.
Zhang Yang and Chu Ziqiang looked at each other and smiled.
"Are you two coming by car?" Aunt asked.
2605: F 700: 43: 6000:: B zero
She immediately changed her strategy and said directly to Zhang Yang: "This handsome guy's words really go to my heart." β
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yang responded quickly.
"I asked the old man clearly, this is the thrift market during the day, and the stalls in the ghost market at night are not the same people."
"So you were looking at the jade just now." Xiao Chu suddenly realized, "I said, Brother Yang, why do you keep staring at your aunt's wrist?" β
"yes, it's in the parking lot over there."
Zhang Yang did not shirk.
Everyone is planning to slaughter themselves as pigs, and they can still afford to have a cup of tea.
Zhang Yang was speechless for a while, and gave Xiao Chu a roll of his eyes before explaining: "The bamboo basket she is carrying in her hand should be the craftsmanship of a professional craftsman in the late Qing Dynasty." β
It's similar to the antique shop in the TV series "The Legend of Liulichang".
"On the contrary, people who don't understand anything, don't know where it is expensive, they will feel sorry for money, and it is easy to call the police if they are blind."
The aunt talked to Zhang Yang and the others, she was telling the truth, and tried her best to show Zhang Yang and the others her kindness.
"I'm not afraid of the two jokes when I say it, when our antique shop was first built, every antique in it was handed down from our ancestors, and it was really no different from the down-and-out Eight Banners disciples who turned into property."
Zhang Yang looked at Xiao Chu suspiciously.
Whoever believes the boss's words just now is a fool.
"What's magnificent?" The aunt smiled and shook her head, "We are all unscrupulous descendants, and we can barely survive by selling the family property of our ancestors." β
This is to take him to pick up the leak.
After a while, Xiao Chu asked about the current situation.
β¦β¦
"Then this man has some strength." Zhang Yang looked at the old man's back and commented.
"Hahaha, that makes sense."
"That's a century-old shop, and my second uncle has a pair of the same style, which is said to cost more than 8,000, so this person must be a little rich."
"Just now I was thinking to myself, my aunt's wrists are as thick as my feet, even if she wears a jade bracelet, it's not attractive, right?"
The shop is well decorated, although the faΓ§ade is not big, but the red walls and green tiles, there are two stone lions at the door of the store, if it were not for the boss without a patch on his chest, Zhang Yang would have suspected that he had crossed into the private residence of a Qing Dynasty eunuch.
This thing is not precious, and it is worth one or two thousand yuan at most when it is placed on the market, but it appears in a place like a big willow tree, and the implication is a bit obvious.
The house depends on the situation, to say the least, it has a history of fifty or sixty years, and the style is completely different from modern architecture.
What do you mean by that?
What about the ghost market? It's daylight.
"That's good, my car is over there. Our shop is quite close to here, just five miles away. β
Everyone called themselves by name, Zhang Yang felt that it was a little inappropriate to go, so he stopped in place and saw what moths were at the bottom.
That's what I'm wearing.
The really rich old Yanjing, in addition to the exaggerated two stunned, who buys those luxury clothes with trademarks, are all in the century-old store, looking for the master to customize.
"I look at the Huanghuali bracelets on his wrists, all of them have ghost eyes, the last time I saw such a serious bracelet player, it was at Chen Yanguang's house."
The hall is fifty square meters, and the room is full of large and small cabinets, with dim light, and the dress of the old Tang, giving Zhang Yang a feeling of being a modern antique shop in a trance.
While running, he shouted in his mouth: "Handsome guy, two handsome guys wait a minute." β
The cultural and museum industry has been working for a long time, and it is always subconsciously about the origin of the people and things around me, and there is a desire to get to the bottom of it.
He thought that Xiao Chu knew this person, but Chu Ziqiang shook his head, frowned and said, "I should also come to visit the ghost market, right?" β
"Don't look at me, I'll listen to Brother Yang." Xiao Chu spread his hands and said.
"It's okay, then we'll come back later." Xiao Chu said disapprerovingly.
The latter had the same expression on his face as he did.
"Yes, yes, my Brother Yang is right." Xiao Chu nodded again and again, and said with a smile, "Originally, I was a little hesitant, but I will not bargain for the benevolence of the two of you." β
"But I still have a question, isn't the aunt's bracelet full of cotton? The Qing Dynasty was all this kind of goods? β
"Hehe, that's right, I have an antique shop at home."
"Who's to say it isn't?" Zhang Yang smiled, he didn't have time to spend time with his aunt here, so he asked her straight to the point, "Anyway, it's still so long before the ghost market starts, why don't we follow you and go to your antique store to have a look?" β
He felt that his aunt was a liar, and his tone was somewhat impatient.
"Thank you. Eldest sister, your store is magnificent. Zhang Yang said with a thumbs up.
"Even the jadeite used by the emperor has a lot of cotton material, and during the Qing Dynasty, the ore mining in Myanmar was not good, and many deep pits of the rough stone were not dug out."
The faΓ§ade of the old Tang antique store is indeed not large, and the length and width are about the same as the roller shutters of ordinary garages.
"Brother Yang, wait a while, I'll shake someone and ask."
"Am I opening it the wrong way? How does it feel more lively here than Pan Jiayuan? β
"Hey, to put it bluntly, isn't it just selling dog meat on a sheep's head?" When the passing uncle heard Xiao Chu's explanation, he added a sentence, shook his head and turned to leave.
Her husband is not stupid, seeing a Bentley with the beginning of Jing A and the tail number still 888, where does he not know that the rare leeks have come to the door?
So as soon as Zhang Yang and Xiao Chu got out of the car, they saw the male owner of the store, wearing a gray slanted shirt and Hanfu, standing at the door with a smile on his face.
However, before the two of them could turn around, they saw an aunt not far away, carrying a bamboo basket rushing in their direction.
When Xiao Chu was instructed to reverse, the aunt who led the way just now was already glancing at her own people in the store.
"You've won a prize......"
The aunt next to her was a little dizzy by Zhang Yang and Xiao Chu's singing, but she recognized one thing, that is:
"Niu, it seems that we both chose the wrong profession, we should be detectives, what clues can escape the eyes of the two of us?" Zhang Yang said with a smile.
"Got it." Xiao Chu stretched out his hand and made an OK gesture.
It's not far from the heart of downtown Yanjing, but it's surrounded by one- or two-storey low-rise houses.
He took Xiao Chu and looked to the right from the leftmost counter.
"The counteroffer can still be returned." Old Tang smiled awkwardly, bent down and made a gesture of please, "Two, go in and take a look?" β
"Green is right, in the Qing Dynasty, the greener the better, the more transparent, moist or not, it is not that important at all."
"Cheng, you two please." Old Tang made a gesture of please.
What do you mean by old and small? In the past, Zhang Yang had no concept of this, but now that he is here, he has a clear understanding of Lao Poxiao.
The contents of the first cabinet caught his attention.
Isn't this a spittoon?
