Chapter 653 Baoguo Temple Cultural Market

Although Luo Qi thinks that chalcedony unicorn has no collection value, it may not be so in the eyes of other people. After all, Luo Qi's vision is different from ordinary people, not ordinary high!
According to her, her collections are either Wang Xizhi’s original Preface to the Lanting Collection, or Tang Bohu’s Peach Blossom Monastery, or Qin Shihuang’s sword, or Sui Yangdi’s Zhenguo Yuxi. Anyway, they are all current. In the world of antiques, there are only legends, but never real objects. If you take out any of them, it will cause a huge sensation in the world. Things that are 'unpopular' like chalcedony unicorns are naturally popular. Can't get her eyes.

Baoguosiwen Cultural Market is located at No. 1 Baoguosiqian Street, XC District, Capital City, on the north side of Guangnei Street, west side of Xuanwu Hospital, and Guangnei Street Station of Metro Line 7.

The temple with a history of 600 years faces south, the main buildings are built on a north-south central axis, and the cultural market is built along the ancient temple.

In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Baoguo Temple was already the most famous book fair in the capital, many years earlier than Liulichang Book Fair. It used to be a place for literati and poets to visit, leaving many legends and stories.

After modern times, it has gradually evolved into a cultural market for antique trading. Most of the time, antique trading is open on weekends. It is a famous scenic spot in the capital.

At the beginning, the scale was far smaller than it is now. At that time, there were only a dozen shops in it. After doing a business, you can last for three years. Basically, you can make a steady profit. Later, when you see that you are making money In the beginning, more and more people began to flock to the cultural market, and various shops, large and small, also began to stand up in the cultural market, and the popularity became more and more vigorous.

The collection of antique calligraphy, painting and antiques on the cultural market is of various types and dazzling.

Almost anything you can think of, anything that has something to do with antiques, is sold here.

As long as you have money, heart, and vision, basically you will not return empty-handed.

There are everything from small copper coins, knife coins, porcelain bowls, and even single-volume comic books from childhood to vases as large as a person's height, antique tables, chairs and benches, and boudoir beds with curtains.

However, in recent years, the business in the market has not been as good as before. The main reason is that more and more fake products have flowed into the market. It's so frustrating and frustrating, naturally I won't want to do it a second time.

So in the cultural market, in addition to large and small antique shops, there are also many restaurants and cafes.

Although there are not many people here usually, but when the antique trade is open on weekends, it will become like this, with a sea of ​​people, not to mention that the car has no place to park, and people have to see stitches to get through the door. Can squeeze in.

Fortunately, Long Xiaoyun contacted the retired old professor who opened the store in advance, and drove the off-road vehicle all the way to the backyard of the store, so he didn't have to worry about being towed away by the city management if he parked at will.

Ye Luoyang and Long Xiaoyun turned out from the backyard, instead of entering the store directly through the back door, they walked around the street first, and then came to the main entrance of the store and stopped to listen.

The name of the shop opened by the old professor is called Zhiyinzhai, which probably means meeting a bosom friend in high mountains and flowing water. The door is specially carved by someone, in an antique style, with three big characters written in thin gold , animal horns and eaves, looking from the door, it's a different taste.

Long Xiaoyun glanced at Ye Luoyang, who was still full of thoughts: "What? You still know about these antiques? Just now, after looking at them for so long on the street, don't you worry that the old professor won't see you when he gets angry?"

Ye Luoyang chuckled, "I didn't understand it at all before, but now I know a thing or two. After all, I've been with Luo Qi for so long, and I can be regarded as fascinated by it."

"However, almost none of the stalls on the street are genuine. If you look around, 90.00% of them are handicrafts."

"Really?" Long Xiaoyun asked in surprise, "Can you really tell?"

"Know a thing or two." Ye Luoyang said with a smile.

In fact, he doesn't know anything about antiques, but with a pair of sharp eyes, he can often see through the origin of things. Antiques, how old they are, can be known at a glance, while handicrafts are new works, generally no more than a few decades old, so they are easy to identify , no skill.

As he spoke, he clapped his hands: "Okay, let's go sell this thing first, and then talk about it. I'll come out later by myself and go around. You can do your work."

"Virtue." Long Xiaoyun said, "You think I have so much free time to accompany you, I will take you to see the old professor in a while, and then I have to go to work."

While talking, the two walked into Zhiyinzhai's shop side by side.

The size of the store is not small, but there is only one clerk in it, who looks young and looks like a student.

Looking around, the shop is full of antiques such as calligraphy, painting and porcelain. There are three or four large shelves, which are filled with various antiques for sale.

Some shelves are filled with vases and porcelain, others are calligraphy and paintings or copper coins, and some are strange things, such as gourds, teapots, dishes and chopsticks, etc. There are many things, all of which are Antique, quite like that.

But in Ye Luoyang's eyes, it's really clear. Compared with the outside, it's not much better. Basically, there's nothing real, but that's okay. Generally, those who open antique stores eat old customers. It has not been opened for three years, and it has been eaten for three years since it was opened. Basically, what is displayed in the store is fake, and it is easy to show the real thing.

Firstly, it’s because I’m afraid that some daredevil will be vulnerable by accident. If that person has no money, there’s really no place to cry. Throwing the thing outside, I didn't see it, but someone picked it up and took it away. I don't know if it's okay, but if I know it, I guess smoke will come out of my seven orifices all at once.

Be cautious!

This Zhiyinzhai is more conscientious than the outside, at least there are still some old things inside.

When the young guy who looked like a clerk saw someone coming in, he quickly greeted with a smile and said, "Hi, please come in. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Long Xiaoyun smiled politely and said, "Oh, we are here to find Professor Gu."

"Looking for Professor Gu? Are you?"

"I've already called him, my name is Long Xiaoyun."

The clerk suddenly realized, "Oh, it's you. The teacher told me when he was going out, please sit down first. The teacher has gone out and will be back in a while. You can wait here for a while."

"teacher?"

"Well, yes." The young man said, "I'm a former student of Professor Gu. During the weekend, I was hired by the teacher to do a part-time job. I can do some work and earn some money. Please sit down first."

Long Xiaoyun said thank you, and sat on the chair with Ye Luoyang to wait.

At this time, another guest came to the door. They were a man and a woman. They were well-dressed, and they seemed to be rich.

The man had a tough face, a warm and welcoming smile, and his aura was that of someone who had been in a high position in the company for a long time.

And the temperament of a woman is not weaker than that of a man, she is also strong and cold, and belongs to the image of a goddess in many people's dreams.

"Please come in, both of you, just take a look around, and call me if you need anything." The clerk greeted politely.

The man just responded lightly, and he didn't look at the part-time student any more, but turned his head and said with a smile on his face, "Bingqing, let's go in and have a look together. If you like it, I'll buy it for you."

Saying that, the two walked into the shop together.
