After asking Chen Zixuan for information about the seller, Tang Feng rushed to Panjiayuan as soon as possible.
Now that I know the news, I naturally have to look for it, even if I want to find a needle in a haystack, I have to go there.
If you can't find the other person, then think of another way and you can always find them. Even if you really can't find them, it doesn't matter. You can go to the ancient tomb to investigate on your own. Anyway, you already know the specific place.
Not long after, Tang Feng took a taxi to Panjiayuan.
This is the largest flea market in Beijing and one of the best antique markets in the country. It is a paradise for antique lovers. There are countless people dreaming about making money here every day. Of course, there are also tourists from all over the country and even the world.
tourists.
This is not the first time Tang Feng has come to this place. He has been here several times before. Some have found treasures, and some have returned empty-handed.
After entering Panjiayuan Market, Tang Feng looked in all directions and listened in all directions. He searched for the treasures around him and also looked for the person he was looking for, the old man named Fu.
Perhaps because of the weekend holidays, there were particularly many tourists in the market, and the surroundings were filled with all kinds of noise.
There are so many people and it’s difficult to find someone.
In fact, Tang Feng didn't have much hope.
It's extremely difficult to find an old farm man who has never seen him before and doesn't look outstanding in a place like this. What's more, when looking for him, he may not appear in the antique market as he expected.
Walking from the front street to the back street, from the street stall area to the shop area, Tang Feng found nothing. He didn't find any good treasures, and he didn't pay Guowen and his son in cash.
"Hey, the dream of becoming a national treasure is getting harder and harder to achieve now!"
When he was almost at the end of the street, Tang Feng couldn't help but sigh.
Although he is not an appraisal expert and has limited appraisal experience, he can basically tell the quality of something at a glance with his clairvoyant eyes.
What he sees at first glance is a feeling, but often this feeling is very accurate.
After wandering around all morning and finding nothing, Tang Feng was ready to leave.
He planned to contact Chen Zixuan later to see if he could get more detailed information about Fu Guowen and his family from the villagers. If there was information, he could consider continuing to search. If not, then he would have no choice but to go directly to the mountain village and enter again.
Ancient tomb.
At this moment, I suddenly found a large number of people gathered not far ahead, everyone seemed to be watching something exciting.
"What happened?" Tang Feng thought secretly.
He didn't think much and walked straight ahead.
Soon he walked into the crowd.
When I walked into the crowd and walked inside, I saw the scene clearly.
I saw an old man squatting in the open space in front of a shop.
The old man was holding a snakeskin bag in his hand, and there were pieces of porcelain scattered on the ground around him. Apparently, he had just broken a piece of porcelain.
At this moment, he buried his head and cried loudly, crying very sadly.
Seeing the old man dressed in simple clothes, who looked like an old farmer, Tang Feng immediately frowned, his eyes thoughtful, and he seemed to see something.
"Is he the old man Fu Zixuan mentioned?"
Tang Feng was surprised.
The old man's clothes and thin figure were similar to Chen Zixuan's description.
"It can't be such a coincidence, it must be him. I didn't expect to find him after all. That's great!" When he found that the person looked like Fu Guowen, Tang Feng felt excited. He finally found the person he was looking for.
, right in front of you.
"You have to testify for me. His porcelain has nothing to do with our store. He dropped it to the ground when he walked out and broke it into pieces. Many people saw it. We also have surveillance at the door, so it should have been photographed.
"
Standing at the door of the antique shop was a tall man with a bald head and glasses. The man said loudly, explaining to everyone and eager to clear up the relationship.
The crowd was talking a lot.
The old man didn't say anything, he just cried loudly. The crying became louder and louder, and became more and more miserable, which made people feel distressed.
"Call the police and let the police handle it," someone said.
"Yes, call the police. This matter can only be explained clearly to the police." People nearby agreed.
"The police are coming!"
Everyone was talking about calling the police when the police came.
Two policemen came.
"What's going on?" A policeman came up and asked.
"Officer, you came just in time. This old country man came to my store with a piece of porcelain for no reason and said he wanted to sell it to us. What he brought was ordinary porcelain, not worth much at all. Of course our store doesn't want it. We
When he said no, he suddenly became very excited and begged us to buy it with tears and even knelt down. We stopped him and asked him to come out. Who knew that as soon as he walked out of the door, the porcelain in his hand fell to the ground?
We didn't touch him when we were there, and he accidentally fell down because he didn't hold himself firmly." The shop owner quickly explained, as if he was afraid that the matter would become entangled.
"Old man, stop crying. Is it what he said?" the policeman asked the old man.
"Of course it is what I said. Someone saw it. We also have surveillance inside and outside the store. You can call the surveillance to see. This matter has nothing to do with us."
Upon hearing the police's question, the store owner immediately became nervous and said excitedly.
The old man raised his head, shook his head vigorously, and cried: "This matter has nothing to do with the boss. I dropped the porcelain on the floor by myself. Don't blame him. It was all my own carelessness!"
"You heard it, he said he has nothing to do with me." The boss said immediately, looking quite proud.
The crowd watching the excitement started talking again.
Seeing this scene, Tang Feng, who was standing quietly aside, couldn't help but be moved.
Many of them may have thought that the old man would touch the shop owner, but who knew that he told the truth without hesitation and did not wrong others at all. There are not many people who are so simple and honest.
"Old man, tell me, how much is the piece of porcelain you accidentally broke worth? No matter how much it is, I will buy it at the price."
Tang Feng walked over and spoke. His voice was clear and sonorous, and everyone present heard it.
Hearing him say such words, everyone was in an uproar and couldn't believe their ears.
Someone actually stood up and was willing to accept the broken piece of porcelain according to the price.
According to the other party's wishes, he would take action at whatever price the old man offered, and the offer was very generous.
Some people suspected that the two of them were working together, singing the oboe, but it didn't look like it, and there seemed to be no need for them to do so. The porcelain was broken, and they couldn't deceive anyone even if they wanted to.
"Is this young man stupid or is he kind-hearted and simply doing good things?" someone whispered.
Tang Feng naturally ignored the comments and strange looks.
The other party may be the old man Fu he is looking for. Now that the other party is crying so sadly, he naturally wants to help.
Even if the other person is not the person he is looking for and has nothing to do with him, he cannot bear to stand by and watch. If he can help, he can do something.
If you cry so sadly, you must be in trouble and need someone's helping hand.
"Young man, you...are you kidding?" The old man looked at Tang Feng with tears in his eyes and asked in disbelief.
Tang Feng smiled and said: "Of course I'm not joking, I'm telling the truth. Don't be embarrassed, just tell me how much your piece of porcelain is going to sell for. I don't care if it's true or false, or good or bad. I'll do whatever you want.
No matter how much I give you, I know you feel uncomfortable and are in trouble, so just think of it as me doing a good deed and helping you out."
He told the truth and didn't hide anything.
The old man said: "Thank you, you are such a kind person. This porcelain was handed down from our ancestors and is a family heirloom. If my son hadn't been sick, I wouldn't have sold it. The villagers said
It can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, but when it is brought to the city, no one recognizes it. It is said to be ordinary porcelain. It is not worth tens of thousands, let alone thousands of yuan. It can only be collected for a few hundred yuan. But now my son
I need money very much to be hospitalized. How can I use a few hundred yuan? When I walked out of the store just now, my legs hurt and I lost all my strength. When I fell, things fell and broke. Then
But what I had to sell to pay for my son’s medical treatment was the only valuable thing in our family now, and it was just gone. I suddenly felt very uncomfortable, so I couldn’t help but burst into tears.”
"Understood." After listening patiently to what he said, Tang Feng solemnly nodded and said, "Tell me, it doesn't matter, how much do you want."
The old man shook his head and said, "Thank you, young man. The porcelain is broken. I don't want your money. I can't take it for nothing."
He actually refused Tang Feng's gift.
This was another strange thing in the eyes of everyone, and once again aroused discussion.
After saying that, he struggled to stand up from the ground, then bent down to pick up the pieces of the broken porcelain on the ground, picked them up piece by piece, and put them into the snakeskin bag. He didn't want to leave those pieces here and pollute the environment.
.
Tang Feng naturally helped him pick it up, and he didn't stop until he had picked up every tiny piece of porcelain on the ground.
Then he didn't say anything, and walked forward slowly with a hunched back and a snakeskin bag on his back.
The figure was thin and lonely. Tang Feng had never seen such a lonely figure.
"Old man, please wait a moment."
Tang Feng chased after him.
"Young man, do you have anything else to do?" The old man stopped and turned around to ask.
Tang Feng didn't answer and asked: "Where are you going?"
The old man said: "I can't sell the antiques I brought from home. I have to find other ways to raise money for my son's medical treatment. I'm going to the hospital to see him now."
Tang Feng smiled and said: "I will accompany you to visit him. To be honest, I am a doctor. Maybe I can cure your son's disease. Even if I can't cure it, I know many famous medical experts in the capital. They
There must be a way. We won't charge you any money. If you insist on paying the medical bills, that's fine. You'll owe it to us first, and then you can pay it to us after your son recovers. We're not in a hurry for the medical bills. We treat illnesses and save lives.
That’s the most important thing.”
"Really, you are a doctor?" the old man said in surprise.
Tang Feng nodded vigorously and said: "Of course, will I lie to you again? Can we sit down and chat for a while? I think you are hungry, and I haven't had lunch either. How about I treat you to a meal first?
Sit down and have a good chat about your son's illness, so that I can be mentally prepared to see if the illness can be cured."
"Okay." The old man agreed without hesitation.
After saying that, Tang Feng took him to a nearby restaurant and invited the old man to dinner.
