Chapter 0063 Confucian Temple Antique City

The more professional antique market in Jinling is the Confucius Temple Antique City located on Zhanyuan Road in Confucius Temple. There are more than a hundred merchants gathered here. Behind the main hall of Confucius Temple is a group of antique buildings imitating the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

There are nearly 20 antique shops, which sell various antique calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, miscellaneous items, and of course more modern handicrafts.

Most of the people who come to the Confucius Temple Antique Market are tourists from all over the country.

At this moment, there were two young tourists, each with different moods, wandering around this bustling antique market.

These two young men and women, the man is about 26 or 7 years old, has slightly dark skin, and is wearing a tailored black casual jacket on his upper body, giving people a calm and rigorous look. The girl next to him has a face of about

She is in her early twenties, with beautiful appearance and creamy skin. She wears a light yellow windbreaker. Her simple and elegant clothing style conceals the youthful age of a school girl, making her look fashionable and elegant, and she looks both inside and outside.

"Brother Feiyang, this is the leading antique collection and trading market in East China. Let's see who can pick it up first. How about it?"

The girl who spoke looked at the crowds of people coming and going in the antique shop here, and her mood became excited. She couldn't help but put forward a suggestion for a missing-missing competition.

"Okay! Whoever gets the baby first will be treated to lunch..." The man smiled and cooperated with the girl's suggestion.

These two young tourists are of course Fang Feiyang and Su Yazhi.

Yesterday, the four of them "eated and drank for free" at the Luoqiu Western Restaurant owned by Langting International. After leaving in a swaggering manner, they went to KTV to practice their voices.

Two evil-minded guys, Zheng Qipeng and Zhou Dedong, were left stunned in the restaurant, sitting there in disbelief.

The four young people went crazy in the KTV until midnight. Fang Feiyang even sent Su Yazhi and Hua Qiujing back to their community. He and Zhang Guoshan opened a standard room in a nearby business chain hotel and spent the night.

The next day was Sunday. Early in the morning, Zhang Guoshan changed his previous habit of sleeping in. After Fang Feiyang got up and did a simple lying down boxing, he got up quietly. After getting up, Zhang Guoshan went to bed with him.

The good brothers are discussing something.

Today is the last day of the weekend holiday. Zhang Guoshan wants to go separate ways instead of the four of them always staying together. It turns out that this guy wants to spend time with Hua Qiujing. He plans to take his girlfriend out today to buy some clothes that girls like.

Baobao, make her happy. As for his brother, he strongly suggested that Fang Feiyang ask Su Yazhi out to watch a movie, visit Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, or get a room, as long as the four of them don't follow him and Hua Qiujing.

Fang Feiyang shouted that he was not careful when making friends!

Finally, under the suggestion of Su Yazhi, a little antique fan, Fang Feiyang made their first stop in the morning to Confucius Temple, one of the four major Confucian temples in China.

Confucius Temple is a group of large-scale ancient buildings that have gone through vicissitudes of life and been built and destroyed several times. It is a place where Confucius is enshrined and sacrificed. It is known as a Qinhuai scenic spot and has become a characteristic landscape area of ​​the ancient capital of Jinling. It is also a famous overseas tourist attraction.

The largest traditional ancient street market in China.

As soon as the two of them arrived here, they took the lead in arriving at this thousand-year-old temple.

There are eight ginkgo trees planted in the central courtyard of the Confucius Temple. The ancient lanterns are symmetrical. A straight stone corridor in the middle leads to the Danqi in front of the Dacheng Hall. This Danqi is the place where music and dance are held when worshiping Confucius. A bronze statue of Confucius is erected in the middle.

The statue is 4.18 meters high and weighs 2500 kilograms. It is the largest bronze statue of Confucius in China. On both sides of the stone steps are white marble statues of twelve sages such as Yan Hui and Zi Lu, each of Confucius's disciples, each 1.80 meters high. The towering and solemn Dacheng Hall,

The double eaves are flying, the brackets are staggered, there are double regular script and opera beads in the dragon's kiss ridge, and there are three golden characters "Dacheng Hall" on the sea blue vertical plaque in the double eaves.

While visiting the Confucian Temple, Fang Feiyang took many photos of the temple buildings with the smartphone he just bought yesterday. At the same time, his phone also left photos of the beautiful Su Yazhi in different styles, as well as their group photos. This made Fang Feiyang

I was very excited all the way down.

The two of them wandered aimlessly and unknowingly came to this antique market. Under the suggestion of Su Yazhi from the competition, Fang Feiyang was also ready to show off his talents and could not waste his talents.

The two agreed to work separately and contact each other by phone if there were any special circumstances.

Coincidentally, today is Sunday, and like the Sioux City Antique Market, there are many street stalls here.

Don't underestimate these informal street stall sales. There are many customers bending over to inquire at each stall. Most of them are foreign tourists carrying travel bags and shopping bags. There are also many middle-aged and elderly people who have experience.

, those who understand antiques and collections can certainly collect them if they encounter genuine ones, but they can also appreciate their artistic shapes if they are not genuine. Such people have relatively high taste and tend to see more and sell less.

Fang Feiyang chose a stall and squatted next to it, observing each one. Now, under the influence of his master Song Longshan, Fang Feiyang's eyesight is also different from what it used to be. Even if he doesn't use his super-sensory abilities, what are modern handicrafts on the assembly line?

, he can basically tell the difference between what is an antique and art piece that has been precipitated by history.

The stall in front of me is a miscellaneous street stall. There are miscellaneous things placed in rows on the stall canvas, including wooden pen holders, old banknotes, copper Buddha statues, unknown old clay pots, and most of all, ancient coins.

Copper coins and copper plates from various dynasties during the feudal period, knife coins as early as the Warring States period, and various versions of silver coins as late as the Republic of China period.

Most of these ancient coins are from the late Qing Dynasty. Among them, coins with the words Guangxu Tongbao and Xianfeng Chongbao of the Qing Dynasty exist in large quantities, and their value depends on their appearance and edition. Most of these ancient coins on this stall are genuine.

But in Fang Feiyang's opinion, each one is only worth 5-10 yuan.

Next, he looked at several stalls in a row. Nearly an hour passed in a blink of an eye. He didn't find anything of value, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

As expected, picking up leaks depends on luck. Even if Fang Feiyang has super sensory abilities, there is no use for them if all he encounters are high imitations or items with no collectible value.

Just as Fang Feiyang continued to wander along the road, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Huh? Su Yatou called. Could it be that she discovered something?

"Hello? How come you have gained something?" Fang Feiyang pressed the answer button and asked with a smile.

"Well, where are you? Come here quickly, I'm outside the wood carving shop on the seventh floor of the Antique City. I have something good for you to see!" Su Yazhi's voice sounded a little happy and excited.

"OK, we'll be there soon!"

Fang Feiyang hung up the phone and immediately went to find Su Yazhi. Fang Feiyang didn't recognize the place the girl mentioned on the phone, but since it was on the seventh floor, it must be a high-rise building. Look what's around here

The building is over seven floors, so it shouldn't be difficult to find it by looking at the signs.

Ten minutes later, Fang Feiyang stood in front of Su Yazhi.

This girl was holding an old cylindrical bamboo pen holder in her hand, about fifteen centimeters high, and the inner strength of the bamboo tube was about eight or nine centimeters. Fang Feiyang hadn't started to observe it yet, but when he took a closer look, he found that the entire pen holder was simple in workmanship, and the figures were

There are many scenes, the "patina" is ruddy, and the engravings on the pen barrel are in a continuous composition and at the same time orderly.
