Collection of Gods

Chapter 280 The Ming Dynasty
"Dr. Tang, this is Guo Jiansheng."

“Having worked in Panjiayuan for 20 years, I am one of Panjiayuan’s most senior guides.”

In Yongji Noodle Shop, Tang Yuan carefully looked at the dark-skinned, short and thin middle-aged man in front of him, and then nodded slightly to the bodyguard who brought him over. The other party understood and would keep Guo Jiansheng here. , turned around and left here silently.

Facing Tang Yuan's gaze and size, Guo Jiansheng shrank subconsciously, making his already short and thin body look even more insignificant: "Dr. Tang, you... hello, I am Guo Jiansheng. , what are you going to ask me to do?"

"Brother, you don't have to be nervous."

"I am a foreigner. I have heard for a long time that Panjiayuan is the largest collectibles market in China. And because Panjiayuan has repeatedly created the myth of collecting treasures many years ago, I am fascinated by this place and always want to come here."

"But Panjiayuan is too big. If we plunge in directly, we will most likely be like headless flies. So we invite you here because we want you to be our guide. If you can tell us about Panjiayuan Gonzo, that’s even better.”

Tang Yuan saw that the other party was a little nervous, so he couldn't help but smile slightly and comforted the other party in a warm voice.

"Whoa whoa……"

"If that's all, then I'll be fine."

"If you talk about other places, I dare not say that I am familiar with them, but if you talk about Panjiayuan, I can walk around here even with my eyes closed."

Guo Jiansheng was a little nervous at first. The main reason was that Tang Yuan's bodyguards looked too intimidating. In addition, the money Tang Yuan gave was many times more than the normal fee. This made him feel a little uneasy, but after waiting for him, Hearing that he was just serving as a guide in Panjiayuan and would not be allowed to do anything else, his uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

"In that case, let's set off later."

Tang Yuan smiled at Guo Jiansheng, then glanced at Xiong Kai: "Are you full? If not, give you another bowl."

"I am full!"

"Thank you, Mr. Tang!"

Xiong Kai wiped his mouth and responded with a silly smile.

Hearing this, Tang Yuan smiled and shook his head. Without saying anything more, he stood up and walked out of Yongji Noodle House first. Xiong Kai and Guo Jiansheng quickly followed behind and walked towards Panjiayuan again.

……

5 minute later.

Tang Yuan and others stood at the main entrance of Panjiayuan again.

Due to the mixed situation in Panjiayuan, the security force around Tang Yuan quietly increased from the original Xiong Kai alone to four people.

"Mr. Guo, I heard that Panjiayuan has six major districts. Which district do you think is better for us to start shopping in?"

Tang Yuan did not go in directly, but turned to look at Guo Jiansheng beside him, and asked him with a smile, as if he was a tourist from out of town, planning to come to Panjiayuan.

In fact, Tang Yuan had already determined his target, but out of caution, he could not take Guo Jiansheng straight to the stone carving area as soon as he arrived at Panjiayuan.The collection involved in the five-star mission is extremely valuable, which is absolutely not an exaggeration. According to Tang Yuan's guess, this extremely precious and peerless treasure is probably a cultural treasure left among the people, and is currently being used as a cultural treasure. Disguised and hidden in some form, waiting to be seen again in the future.

In other words, Tang Yuan's trip was to find this unique treasure as soon as possible in the limited time according to the system's prompts.

Under this situation, if Tang Yuan wanted to avoid arousing suspicion from others, he had to deliberately create the illusion that he was able to find the cultural treasure left among the people purely because of his chance.

In life, no matter how anxious your heart is, it is better to be steady.

"Mr. Tang, Panjiayuan has six major areas, namely street stall area, ancient building area, classical furniture area, modern collection area, stone carving area and catering service area. If the catering service area is excluded, there are only Five regions.”

“The street stall area is only open on weekends, and today happens to be Sunday. If you don’t have a place in particular that you want to go to, I suggest you start in the street stall area, because the street stall area is the biggest feature of Panjiayuan. The legendary leak-picking stories that were circulated in the past often happened in this area."

“In addition, the types of items that can be displayed in the street stall area are far beyond the reach of other areas, such as ancient calligraphy and painting, old books and periodicals, agate and jade, ceramics, Chinese and foreign coins, bamboo and wood bone carvings, shadow puppets, facial makeup, Buddhist tokens, etc. Categories, you can see them all here.”

When talking about the things he is good at, Guo Jiansheng started to talk a lot.

"Of course, I have to remind you that Director Tang is here."

“Although the street stall area is the most distinctive area of ​​Panjiayuan and has the largest variety of goods and varieties, it is also the most confusing and confusing place.”

"Just walk around there, take a look, and join in the fun. Don't let those people fool you. Not only is the water deep there, but there are also many tricks."

"Every line has its own rules. When you enter Panjiayuan, I can only guide you and tell you anecdotes. But if you really encounter any tricks, I cannot speak. If you speak, I will disturb you." I will become the target of public criticism for their business, and I will never take advantage of it again, so you must be careful."

"Especially those fragile items, you should not touch them easily, and if you encounter those who are competing to bid or want to snatch items from you at a high price, you must stay calm. Most of them are employees of the stall owner. A shill or a trick."

Just when Tang Yuan was about to step into Panjiayuan, Guo Jiansheng looked a little serious and warned Tang Yuan one after another.

When Tang Yuan heard this, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled slightly at the corner of his lips, raised his hand and patted Guo Jiansheng's shoulder gently: "Brother Guo, in response to what you just said, my guide for the next few days will be It’s all up to you.”

"Good good!"

"Thank you, Mr. Tang!"

"Thank you, Mr. Tang!"

Guo Jiansheng was stunned for a moment, and then he looked happy and thanked Tang Yuan repeatedly.

You must know that the price Tang Yuan offered him was many times higher than the normal price. Working for Tang Yuan for five days would earn him more than working for someone else in a month. Such a generous return was definitely a surprise to him. How could he not be surprised that he was rich?

Tang Yuan smiled and waved his hand, then without saying anything else, under the leadership of Guo Jiansheng, he quickly walked towards Panjiayuan's street stall area...
