Chu Huan has been in the capital for ten days. On the same day after arriving in the capital, Mo Youheng showed up at the capital hotel where Chu Huan lived. Later, accompanied by Mo Youheng, Chu Huan met some big shots from his hometown and talked in detail.
After a while, Chu Huan stayed at the Jingcheng Hotel.
"Brother Huan, you are really in the mood, you actually want to visit the capital!"
During this period of time, Mo Youheng has been accompanying Chu Huan, and the two have become good friends. Now Mo Youheng is still Chu Huan's tour guide in the capital.
Chu Huan smiled and said, "Are you curious? I always want to see more!"
The capital city of the 1970s had only been seen in movies, TV shows and some rebirth stories, but now it is really standing here!
Standing in the lobby of the Capital Hotel, Chu Huan and Mo Youheng were chatting.
After a while, Lin Qingxia, who was wearing a milky white windbreaker, and Wu Shuhan, who was wearing a dark windbreaker, walked down.
"Ms. Lin, don't worry. I've asked my friends in Heilongjiang Province to inquire about the person you're looking for. I believe there will be news soon!"
After meeting Lin Qingxia, Mo Youheng smiled and preached to her.
Lin Qingxia thanked her, "Thank you so much!"
Mo Youheng laughed and said, "Miss Lin, there's no need to be so polite. My dad told me when he called me before that he would try his best to help Brother Huan in his hometown."
Chu Huan smiled and said, "So, when I go back, I have to thank Mr. Mo properly!"
Mo Youheng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Brother Huan, if you can come here at this time, you have already made them very happy."
Now that everyone has arrived, we naturally walked out.
"Don't arrange a car, I just want to walk around casually!" Chu Huan said to Mo Youheng at the door of the Capital Hotel.
Chu Huan's current status is that of a foreign guest. If he travels, the Capital Hotel can arrange a car.
When Mo Youheng saw what Chu Huan said, he didn't say anything. He just talked to the driver and walked out of the Capital Hotel with Chu Huan.
The road is very wide. There are no guardrails to divide the road into different lanes. The most common people on the street are bicycles. If it is for commuting, bicycles will occupy the entire road like cars in later generations.
In addition to bicycles, there are blue and white, red and white buses, and occasionally one or two old cars passing by on the road.
Standing at the traffic post are traffic policemen in white police uniforms directing traffic.
Walking on the road today, Chu Huan also saw a Jiefang truck carrying a load of workers wearing dark blue work clothes. They didn't know where they were going.
Pedestrians walking on the street mostly wear dark clothes, and you can see the vitality in their eyes.
Sa!
Several young men in green military uniforms without epaulettes rode bicycles and whizzed past Chu Huan and others not far away. Then they all stopped and turned back curiously to look at the situation at Chu Huan's side.
Because the image of Chu Huan and the others is really different from the way people in the capital dress here and now, coupled with the two beauties Lin Qingxia and Wu Shuhan, they are even more eye-catching.
If they hadn't seen Chu Huan followed by a few men who looked like they were not easy to mess with, those young men would have come over to take pictures of the mother-in-law.
"Where did this come from?"
A young man was holding the handlebars of his bicycle with both hands, one foot on the ground and the other on the pedal, and he was preaching curiously.
"I don't know, but look at her outfit and look, she must have come from abroad!"
Another young man looked similar, his eyes wandering around Lin Qingxia and Wu Shuhan.
"But those two women are really docile."
Chu Huan noticed those young people. Judging from their appearance, they were probably the children of a certain compound. As for whether they would become the trend-setters of the times in the future or become the old guns in the downfall, it was unknown.
"Fuck, what does that young man mean? Does he think he is a leader inspecting? He actually nodded and smiled at us?"
"Whatever, let's go, let's go!"
A group of people roared away, and Chu Huan continued to move forward.
"Brother Huan, I have asked people to inquire about the situation at our grandma's side. I think there will be news in the next few days. I will inform you then!"
Mo Youheng has stayed in the capital for too long, and his speech does not have a Hong Kong and Macao accent. Instead, he is the same as the young people in the capital today.
Chu Huan returned to his hometown this time for three main things. The first was to see the situation in his hometown, meet and communicate with the big shots in his hometown, and the second was to help Lin Qingxia find her long-lost sister. The second was to help Lin Qingxia find her long-lost sister.
The third thing is to find your grandma.
This kind of thing can only be done by Mo Youheng. Chu Huan has no such relationship.
Chu Huan said, "I won't say thank you to you anymore!"
Mo Youheng smiled and said, "If you said thank you to me, that would be a slap in my face."
The two of them smiled and continued to move forward. Lin Qingxia and Wu Shuhan curiously took pictures here with the cameras in their hands.
This was Lin Qingxia's first visit to her hometown. Although Wu Shuhan went to Xiangjiang from her hometown, she had never been to the capital before, so she was naturally very curious about the situation here.
Qin Peng and others slowly fell behind Chu Huan and others, but it could be seen that their eyes were full of pride at this time. Although the current capital city cannot compare with Xiangjiang in terms of prosperity, here
It’s the capital city!
Especially when Qin Peng and others saw the photo of the teacher in the distance, their eyes were full of respect and admiration!
"By the way, Brother Huan, where do you want to visit today?"
Mo Youheng asked Chu Huan.
Chu Huan said, "I want to see the alleys in the capital."
The Hutong culture in the capital has been around for a long time. More importantly, with the passage of time and the development of the times, the number of Hutongs in the capital will decrease a lot, but the value of those that remain will be calculated in units of hundreds of millions in the future.
There is no policy for buying and selling houses in my hometown yet, but it will soon be implemented. Then Chu Huan can definitely buy several alleys. Yes, he will buy alleys instead of buying a single courtyard house.
People in this period had no idea of the future value of these courtyard houses. They had no private bathrooms and used public restrooms. Dozens of people crowded into a courtyard. If possible, they would rather move out of such a place and live in a
Better buildings.
"Then let's go!"
Mo Youheng said nonchalantly. He actually grew up in the capital and had no curiosity about the so-called alleys. However, he was now a tour guide. Since he was a tour guide, he naturally had to have the consciousness of being a tour guide.
Tourists should go wherever they want to go, and consumption must not be forced!
Chu Huan did not go to those well-known alleys, but just found a nearby alley and walked in. The arrival of Chu Huan and others naturally quickly attracted the attention of many people in the alley.
Dirty children playing around, old men playing chess in the sun, the sound of bicycles that are about to fall apart, and people on the street repairing and repairing tires for everyone.
There are also big-character posters that are characteristic of this era.
"This is different from Xiangjiang!"
Mo Youheng smiled and talked to Chu Huan.
Chu Huan raised his head slightly and said with a smile, "Everyone has his own merits."
Mo Youheng smiled and said, "Brother Huan, your evaluation is not low!"
Chu Huan naturally understood what Mo Youheng meant, laughed and said nothing.
"Give way, give way!"
A young man's voice came from behind Chu Huan and others.
Chu Huan turned around, and saw a young man wearing dark blue work clothes and a straw hat, pushing a donkey that was riding upside down and came over. There were some rags on the donkey that was riding upside down.
Riding a donkey backwards is a form of transportation that has disappeared in the era of Chu Huan's rebirth. It is similar to a human-powered pickup truck, except that the pocket is in the front.
Seeing this, Chu Huan and others separated on both sides and made room for the other party. The other party just glanced at Chu Huan and his group curiously and continued to move forward.
Chu Huan soon saw that the young man parked the donkey in reverse at the door of a courtyard. A woman wearing a light-colored hand-knitted sweater walked out of the courtyard, holding something wrapped in cloth in the woman's hand.
, the two were talking, and then the woman carefully opened the cloth, revealing an object that seemed to be an antique.
Collect rags and also collect antiques part-time?
If Chu Huan hadn't seen that young man's appearance just now, Chu Huan would have thought that the other person was Han Chunming!
However, this matter still aroused Chu Huan's interest, so Chu Huan walked in that direction and faintly heard the woman say, "Two yuan is not enough for a big man!"
"Sister, please don't. Look at this thing of yours. Do you think it's an old thing? Besides, even if it's an old thing, it's not worth so much money."
"If it's not worth it, you still buy it. Don't interrupt me. It's only two yuan. Do you want it? I won't sell it!"
"Buy, buy, buy, who says not to buy, but these two dollars are really too much, how about you give me a lower price, maybe one to eight dollars, what do you think? Sister, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, I have the money in my pocket
This is the only one and eight dollars left. After giving them all to you, I won’t have anywhere to eat for lunch today!”
The woman thought about it and was about to agree. At this time, Chu Huan came over and said with a smile, "I bought it for two yuan. What do you think, sister?"
Chu Huan did not see whether this goblet was an antique, but Chu Huan was confident in this era. There were really many antiques in the capital during this period, and people in this era were also more simple and would not take it.
Fake things come out to deceive people.
As for the kind of thing about using chamber pots as antiques and selling them to foreigners, they can only appear in online articles (from "China Entertainment Begins in 1980").
The most important thing is, two dollars
When the woman saw that Chu Huan was actually willing to pay two yuan to buy the item in her hand, she immediately smiled, but the young man immediately showed a vigilant look.
"Hey, do you know the rules? Do you understand those who come on a first-come, first-served basis?"
The young man didn't care about Chu Huan's dress and the posture of the people behind him. When he heard that Chu Huan was trying to grab something from his hand, he hurriedly lectured.
Chu Huan chuckled lightly and said, "I only know that the one with the highest price will get it. Besides, don't you and this eldest sister have no formal business?"
"That's right, I just said that you can't lose two yuan a cent. Now you don't have that much money. If this gentleman is willing to pay two yuan, of course I am willing to sell it to him!"
Women also spoke up at this time.
"Don't, don't, don't. Sister, I will also pay you two yuan, as promised before. How about you sell it to me?" the young man said hurriedly.
The object in my photo is most likely the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup. I have been thinking about it for a long time. If I hadn't saved these two yuan, I would have bought it long ago.
But he didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin would come out halfway and try to steal it from him.
The woman was a little loose. When Chu Huan saw this, she smiled and said, "I'll give you 5 yuan!"
That's it. After Chu Huan reported the price, the young man saw the woman's delighted eyes, and then thinking about the money in his pocket, he knew that it was useless to say anything else.
Sure enough, the woman didn't say anything and directly put the Geyao Bafang Cup in her hand into Chu Huan's hand, for fear that Chu Huan would regret it.
Qin Peng also handed the other party five yuan at this time.
"This gentleman, this gentleman!"
The woman happily returned to her compound with the five yuan, and then Chu Huan heard the woman's happy voice, "Ga Douzi is home for dinner!"
It's almost noon.
When the woman shouted like this, Chu Huan seemed to smell the fragrance in the alley.
Chu Huan took the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup and asked Mo Youheng, "Is there a place to eat nearby?"
Mo Youheng shook his head and said, "I don't know. If you are hungry, let's go back to the hotel!"
"There is a tavern in front of that. The chef is quite good and the food is delicious!"
The young man did not leave. Hearing Chu Huan's question, he hurriedly said.
Hey, I just saw a replica of Han Chunming, and now there is a tavern. Will I encounter Qinman Siheyuan in a while?
The taverns of this period were definitely state-owned. Chu Huan was also bored and decided to have a taste.
The young man wanted to follow Chu Huan. Qin Peng originally wanted to drive him away, but seeing that Chu Huan had no intention of doing so, he took no action.
The young man's eyes were fixed on the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup in Chu Huan's hand, and then he smiled and said to Chu Huan, "Sir, do you also like to collect antiques?"
Chu Huan did not answer his question, but took the Geyao Bafang Cup in his hand and asked the other party, "What is this?"
"Young, darling, it's not a thing, it's an antique, and it's precious gold. You have to be careful!" The young man reminded Chu Huan so casually when he took the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup.
But then, the young man realized that he originally thought that Chu Huan was competing with him because he saw its value, but he didn't expect that Chu Huan didn't even know what this was.
Thinking of this, the young man's heart suddenly felt like an eggplant beaten by frost. He bought this because he really liked these things, but it seemed that the other party definitely wanted to sell these things left by his ancestors.
Because Chu Huan spoke fluent Mandarin, the young people guessed that Chu Huan was of Chinese descent.
With this kind of dress and such pomp, it is impossible for such a person to exist in the capital.
The pearl is covered in dust!
"This is called the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup. It is a good thing left by our ancestors. If possible, I hope you can leave the things of your ancestors in China!"
The young man who thought he had figured out Chu Huan's identity and intentions now seemed a little rushed in his tone of voice.
"Your name is Han Chunming, right?" Chu Huan couldn't help but asked curiously, holding the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup in his hand.
Although in the TV series, the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup fell into the hands of Popohou, the appearance of this thing was too small.
Of course, if the object in his hand was really the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup, Chu Huan would have to be careful when handling it.
Among the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, Ru, Guan, Ge, Jun and Ding, the Ge Kiln is the most mysterious. Even in the era when Chu Huan was reborn, the origin of the Ge Kiln had not yet been found. It was only inferred that it might be in Longquan.
area.
The number of Ge kilns in existence is even more pitiful, with rumors that there are only more than a hundred pieces.
"What Han Chunming? My name is Zhou Tao!" Zhou Tao said.
Chu Huan laughed at himself, how could the other party be Han Chunming? He put this absurd idea out of his mind, and then asked, "Then do you think this is the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup from the Song Dynasty, or an imitation from the Ming Dynasty?"
A Bafang cup made from Ge Kiln?"
Zhou Tao said, "I haven't seen it yet."
Chu Huan nodded and did not ask further questions. Moreover, they had already arrived at the tavern mentioned by Zhou Tao!
Very good, the manager is not Seo Hye Jin either!
"Do you want to come together?"
Chu Huan smiled and said to Zhou Tao.
Zhou Tao also wants to continue to set porcelain with Chu Huan, hoping to persuade Chu Huan not to take these goodies out and sell them.
So there was no rejection.
Although there is no Xu Huizhen in the tavern, the style is similar to the tavern in the TV series. There are several mahogany tables and chairs arranged in an orderly manner. Standing at the counter is a man wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
There are also a few waiters.
When they saw Chu Huan and his party, although they had doubts in their eyes, they still stepped forward and asked Chu Huan what they wanted to eat here.
While Lin Qingxia and Wu Shuhan were thinking about what to eat, Chu Huan and Zhou Tao were still trying hard to convince Chu Huan, "Mr. Chu, the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup is a handed down item. These things are the work of our ancestors."
Inside, these things should not be sold to foreigners who only know how to use money to measure these old objects!"
Zhou Tao already knew Chu Huan's name just now.
Chu Huan smiled and said, "The one who told you that I wanted to sell this thing?"
"Not for sale?"
Zhou Tao was also stunned. He originally thought that Chu Huan wanted to sell the Ge Kiln Bafang Cup, but now that Chu Huan meant it, it seemed that was not the case?
"Of course I won't sell them. As you said, these things are left by our ancestors. I plan to collect them personally."
When he said this, Chu Huan thought of the antique building specially built for his Chu Family Manor in Xiangjiang!
Currently, there are only some Western calligraphy and paintings stored there, as well as some antiques he bought at the Xiangjiang auction, but these things are simply a drop in the bucket in terms of his own antique building.
Thinking of this, Chu Huan looked at Mo Youheng and said, "Ah Heng, I heard that the Friendship Store in Beijing also sells antiques, right?"
Mo Youheng nodded and said, "That's true, but the rules of the Friendship Store are that it can only sell antiques after the Qianlong period."
Chu Huan continued to ask, "Then if I donate some money to my hometown, can you be accommodating?"
Mo Youheng smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem, and even if you don't donate money, according to Brother Huan, you still have global influence in Hong Kong, and my hometown will definitely be accommodating."
Chu Huan waved her hands and said, "No, it's better to donate some money. After all, if I want to buy it, it won't be just one or two pieces!"
Mo Youheng was stunned. In fact, not only Mo Youheng was stunned, but Zhou Tao next to Chu Huan was also stunned, but he was stunned by Mo Youheng's description of Chu Huan.
Is this young man who looks about the same age as you famous?
How come it still has global influence?
Isn't this bragging?
Mo Youheng asked, "How much do you want to buy?"
Chu Huan said with a smile, "How much I want to buy does not depend on how much I want to buy, but how much my hometown is prepared to sell to me!"
Mo Youheng and Zhou Tao were stunned again. Neither of them expected that Chu Huan would answer like this.
"You don't want to get married, right?" Even though Mo Youheng knew Chu Huan's financial resources, he couldn't help but be surprised at the thought of this possibility.
Chu Huan nodded indifferently and said, "As long as they are willing to sell, even if they really want to clear their positions, I can take over them all!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "No, no, no!"
Before Mo Youheng spoke, Zhou Tao was already shaking his head.
But obviously, his attitude cannot determine anything.
Chu Huan didn't say anything to him, but looked at Mo Youheng seriously.
Mo Youheng said, "This is too much. I have to go back and ask my uncle what they mean!"
Chu Huan nodded and smiled, "This is natural."
Then Chu Huan looked at Zhou Tao and said, "I buy antiques purely for collection. You are from the capital, so you should know better than me. Those things in the Friendship Store are originally sold to Gui Lao, and they are the antiques."
The dealer is there, and I bought it because I wanted to take it to Xiangjiang and collect it."
Mo Youheng looked at Chu Huan in surprise, unable to understand why Chu Huan would explain these things to an alley in the capital.
But what Chu Huan said later made Mo Youheng know why.
"But those things in the Friendship Store are obviously not enough. I believe there must be countless good things left among the people in the capital. If you can help me buy them, I can give you a sum of money then!"
Although there are many antiques in the Friendship Store, there are definitely more antiques left among the people.
And there are more good things. Today’s Geyao Bafang Cup is like this. Maybe you can’t find a treasure that can compete with it in the entire Friendship Store.
Zhou Tao did not expect that Chu Huan would ask him to help him purchase antiques, but Zhou Tao did not consider it at all and directly rejected Chu Huan's invitation.
"Sorry, I don't think I can help you with this matter!"
Zhou Tao himself particularly likes to collect these antiques. Although his financial resources do not allow him to do this, as long as he has some money, he will still buy some good objects he comes across.
At this point, although he is not Han Chunming, his thoughts are really the same as Han Chunming.
Although I now know that Chu Huan is from Xiangjiang and collects these antiques, the two parties have just met. Who knows whether what this person said is true or false? If Chu Huan wants to sell it after the acquisition, wouldn't it be a violation of the law?
own original intention.
So Zhou Tao rejected Chu Huan without hesitation.
Chu Huan was not surprised by Zhou Tao's decision and said with a smile, "I know you really like these antiques and want to keep these good things in the capital, but this kind of thing is not something you can do just by thinking about it.
You have also seen what happened just now. As long as I am willing to pay, I can grab the things you like from your hands. I still collect them. What if you meet people from other countries in the future? Just watch.
Don’t you feel bad when you see them buying these items left behind by our ancestors under your nose?”
In the late 1970s and the early to mid-1980s, Beijing indeed became a paradise for antique dealers from all over the world. During that period, these antique dealers came to Beijing in droves because at that time the country needed development and foreign exchange.
So there is no way to prevent this kind of thing.
"My Healing Game"
In the end, many good objects left China and were scattered around the world.
Chu Huan's words made Zhou Tao feel helpless. The feeling of powerlessness he felt when he competed with Chu Huan for the Geyao Bafang Cup came back to him again.
Moreover, he had indeed seen the situation Chu Huan mentioned.
"Can you be richer than them?" Zhou Tao's mind started to move.
Chu Huan chuckled lightly and said, "There must be some people in this world who are richer than me, but there are definitely not many, so as long as I think about it, no one can compete with me!"
Bragging is not a draft!
Zhou Tao couldn't help but complain about Chu Huan in his heart, and he was not afraid of Feng Da's tongue flashing. He also said that there were few people in the world who were richer than him?
"There is no need to make a decision in a hurry. I will stay in the capital for a few days. If you have thought about it carefully, you can come to see me in the VIP building of the Capital Hotel, and I will stay there."
Ordinary foreign businessmen who come to Beijing usually stay in Beijing hotels. Only those with higher status are eligible to stay in the VIP building.
Zhou Tao was even more surprised when he heard that Chu Huan actually lived in the VIP Building.
At this time, the food was served by the waiter, but when Zhou Tao saw Chu Huan eating, the trust he had just established suddenly disappeared.
Because he saw that Chu Huan was like an ordinary person, picking up the bowl with rice, picking up some vegetables, putting them into the bowl, and then using a kuai to pull them into his mouth.
It is no different from eating normally.
Will such a person be rich?
However, Lin Qingxia and others have long been accustomed to Chu Huan's way of eating, so they are no longer surprised.
"Not bad, quite good!" Chu Huan picked up a piece of beef with soy sauce and put it into his mouth, and immediately praised it.
Then he said to the waiter, "Can you please be a little jealous?"
Chu Huan always believed that eating soy sauce beef with a little vinegar would make it more delicious.
The waiter was also a little curious about the way Chu Huan ate, but he still went to get a plate of vinegar.
After drinking and eating, Qin Peng gave money to Chu Huan, who touched his belly with one hand and walked out of the tavern carrying the Geyao Bafang Cup with the other hand.
After visiting this alley, Zhou Tao also left. When he was about to return to the Jingcheng Hotel after visiting the next alley, a young man walked towards him. When he saw Wu Shuhan, he was suddenly stunned!
"Wu Shuhan?"
