Liu Dong took out his wallet directly from his pocket, counted out 10 red tickets and put them on the counter.
"Boss Jia, it's a deal! Thanks!" After saying that, Liu Dong turned around with a smile, and walked out with Mu Gang, who was a little confused.
Looking at Liu Dong's back and the 1,000 yuan on the counter, Boss Jia felt a flash of regret in his heart. However, he did not expect that the gourd was an antique, but felt that the price he had just asked was low.
"Xiaodong, why did you spend 1,000 yuan to buy this gourd? But the carving on this gourd is pretty good!" Because he grew up with Uncle Long in Taiyi Pavilion, although Mu Gang did not inherit Uncle Long's wood-making furniture and miniature carvings, Ability, but his eyesight is still good.
"Haha, Brother Mu, please don't underestimate this gourd. This thing is called a gourd. It has been circulated in our country for thousands of years. Until the Qing Dynasty, the gourd was valued by the royal family. During the Kangxi, Yong and Qian dynasties, the palace made many There are so many exquisite artifacts. The one I have in my hand is the imperial artifact 'Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea' made by the Emperor Kangxi!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"So, this is an antique?" Mu Gang asked.
"That's right! Although the current market value of the artifact is not too high, the one in my hand can be regarded as a fine piece for the royal family. If it goes up for auction, it will not be a problem to sell it for three to four hundred thousand."
"Three to four hundred thousand?" Mu Gang was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the gourd, a hint of warning flashed in his eyes, "Xiaodong, why don't we go back first and put down the things. Otherwise, take this in your hand. I don’t feel at ease with such a valuable thing!”
Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled. "No need. With the abilities of the two of us, who can snatch things away from us!"
"Haha, that's right!" Mu Gang was very confident about his own skills.
However, considering that it was inconvenient to go shopping with a gourd in his hand, Liu Dong bought a large backpack when he passed by a shop selling bags nearby, and then put the gourd in it. Of course, this bag was used to hide people's eyes. After he put the gourd The moment he put it in his bag, the gourd appeared in the mustard space of his mind.
…
By the time the two came out of the Capital Museum at 4:30 p.m., Liu Dong's mustard space had grown to 18 meters.
"Pan Jiayuan, here I come!"
Liu Dong has been looking forward to this largest antique and flea market in the country for a long time. With his ability, he really doesn’t need too many ‘leaks’.
Panjiayuan Flea Market is located southwest of Panjiayuan Bridge on East Third Ring Road South in Beijing. The market is divided into six business areas: stall area, ancient building area, classical furniture area, modern collection area, stone carving area, and catering service area. The main We sell antique items, jewelry and jade, handicrafts, collectibles, and decorations, with an annual turnover of several billion yuan.
The market has more than 4,000 merchants and nearly 10,000 business people, 60% of whom are from 28 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions outside the capital. It involves Han, Hui, Manchu, Miao, Dong, Uyghur, There are more than a dozen ethnic groups including Mongolian, Korean and Korean.
The current market was formed in 1992 and gradually developed with the rise and activity of folk antiques and art transactions. Now it has become an antique large-scale antiques and art market that spreads folk culture.
After years of development, Panjiayuan Flea Market has become more than just an antique flea market. It is also the largest folk crafts trading market in the country, with Yang-Liu Qing’s New Year paintings, Jiangsu embroidery, and Dongyang’s
Wood carvings, Quyang stone carvings, Shandong shadow puppets, as long as you can think of folk crafts, you can find them here.
Moreover, with the development of Panjiayuan, it has become a symbol of Chinese national culture and a must-visit place for traveling in the capital. Especially on Saturdays and weekends, 60,000 to 70,000 people come here, including foreign tourists.
Nearly ten thousand people.
So when Liu Dong and the others came here, they were immediately burned by the bustling crowd in Panjiayuan.
"There are too many people. When our Quancheng Antique Street is the busiest, there are not so many people!" Mu Gang said with a slight sigh.
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded.
This kind of scene of people squeezing each other, pushing each other, vendors, and customers haggling at the top of their lungs can only be encountered in my hometown every year when attending the biggest New Year's Fair in town.
"Let's go, since we're here, why don't we go shopping!" Liu Dong said.
"Okay, Xiaodong, I'll go ahead in a moment!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded. Mu Gang's huge physique makes people feel frightened just by looking at him. Having him open the way can save a lot of effort.
In addition, there were too many people here, and Liu Dong didn't have time to look at each stall. Instead, he directly activated his superpower, which had already reached a radius of 100 meters, to the maximum, then followed Mu Gang and glanced at
I couldn't see the street stalls on the side and walked away.
As a result, after taking a few steps, several white auras appeared in Liu Dong's mind. However, the auras were not too strong and not high enough. I think they were just new and modern things, not high-quality products. So Liu Dong did not
Stop.
"Huh?" Liu Dong was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.
At that moment, he immediately grabbed Mu Gang, who was about to continue walking, and said, "Brother Mu, this way!"
With that said, the two turned into another aisle, then walked forward for more than ten steps, and stopped in front of a stall filled with jade articles.
The stall is not big, about three square meters in total, but there are quite a lot of jade items on the stall. There are about a hundred pieces of large and small items in total. Except for the carvings in the middle of the stall that look good, most of them are actually glass products.
In addition to the jade articles, in the left corner of the stall, there are more than thirty pieces of jade articles that are not very eye-catching and covered with mud.
"Whatever jade pendants you want, you can just pick them from me. They are all authentic Hetian jade, made in Yangzhou, good stuff!" The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a thin face and a slender look.
A shrewd spirit. When he saw Liu Dong, Mu Gang came over and quickly stood up to greet him.
"Haha, let's take a look first and then talk about it!" Liu Dong said with a smile. After three years of working in Quancheng Antique Street, Liu Dong knew a lot about the antique shop. So he had a lot of trouble with the boss "Wang Po selling melons"
His words and deeds go in with one ear and out with the other, pretending not to hear them.
Maybe he saw that Liu Dong was not easy to fool, so after a few polite words, the middle-aged boss went to greet other customers.
Seeing this, Liu Dong first rummaged through one or two pieces of jade in the middle, which were actually embroidered pillows, and then turned to the pile of sticky soil in the corner, which looked green and black, and had no trace
He rummaged through the inconspicuous jade articles.
At this time, the middle-aged boss also noticed Liu Dong's actions. Then he chuckled.
These jade wares were specially made by him. Compared with the jade wares made of glass in the middle, these inconspicuous jade wares are real jade, but they are not very valuable. The clear color on them is made of them, and then some soil is stuck on them.
The purpose is to deceive those half-hearted people who don’t know enough about it and plan to come to Panjiayuan to pick up missing items. Often these people make the most money.
However, Liu Dong didn't care what the middle-aged boss thought. After rummaging through the pile of jades, Liu Dong left three pieces of jade on hand. One looked like an oval 17 or 18 centimeters high, but it was closer to the top.
There is a piece missing, and the gap is also somewhat uneven. The whole piece of jade is black and green, and it really doesn't look like a piece of jade.
The second piece looked even worse. It was a piece of jade the size of a palm and relatively thick. It was covered with mud. Where it was exposed, you couldn't tell what it was.
Only the third piece looks like that, it is a jade pendant carved with a dragon, but the carving work on it is not very good at first glance. The scales on the dragon are of different sizes and irregular. From Liu Dong's perspective as a jade carver
, this jade article looks fake at first glance! But his target was not it in the first place, and picking out this dragon pendant at this moment is just to confuse the audience.
"Boss, how do you sell these three jade pendants?"
Upon hearing Liu Dong's words, the middle-aged boss immediately became energetic.
"Haha, I have such good eyesight. I immediately picked out the three most valuable jade pendants in my stall! These three jade pendants in your hand are authentic Warring States jade pendants. They are more than two thousand years old today. Good stuff.
ah……!"
"Okay, okay, boss, let's get down to business. How much do these three pieces of jade cost?"
Liu Dong quickly interrupted the middle-aged boss's self-promotion, otherwise he could talk endlessly for five or six minutes. Liu Dong's time was limited, and he didn't have time to listen to him talk here.
Almost all the people who can hang out in Panjiayuan are human beings. After seeing the impatient look on Liu Dong's face, the middle-aged boss smiled and stretched out a finger.
"One thousand?" Liu Dong asked.
"Haha, I misunderstood, I have more than this number of Warring States jade pendants!"
"How much is that?"
"Haha, not much, ten thousand!" the middle-aged boss laughed.
Seeing this, Liu Dong didn't say anything, and just threw the three pieces of jade in his hand into the pile of jade. Then he stood up, pulled Mu Gang and left.
"Hey, brother, don't leave! Shall we discuss it again?" Noticing Liu Dong's actions, the middle-aged man stood up quickly. He didn't want the enemy he had finally fallen in love with to leave like this.
Hearing his words, Liu Dong sneered in his heart. If he had hesitated just now, the middle-aged boss would definitely stretch out two fingers again and turn them into three pieces of jade worth ten thousand yuan each. He had seen this method before in Quancheng.
Many times.
Turning around and looking directly at the middle-aged boss, Liu Dong said in a cold tone: "Boss, I just bought these jades for my own enjoyment. I didn't want to buy anything expensive. In addition, I also know a little about jades, that's all.
Can the carving work of the three jade articles also be called Gaogu jade?"
As if he didn't hear Liu Dong's complaints, the middle-aged boss still asked with a smile on his face, "I didn't expect that my little brother is also an expert, sorry, sorry!" After a pause, "I don't know, what do you plan to do with these three pieces of jade?"
How much does it cost?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
