Campus Rebirth

Chapter 236
They said they were going to Antique Street, but in fact Ai Jiujiu and Lin Ran were not familiar with it. Ai Jiujiu seldom went out after arriving in the capital, let alone paid attention to this aspect. Although Lin Ran’s hometown is in the capital, But she seldom comes back. Even if she does come back, she just stays for a while and returns to Linhai. Even if she goes shopping, she goes shopping and wandering around various tourist attractions. She is a little girl and she has no hobbies in this area. No one can do it. Take her to that place, so the two of them decided that they had decided, but their eyes were darkened and they didn't know where to go.

Can they say that they only found out about Panjiayuan's name through Baidu...

The miserable duo had to call in helpers in the end. Xu Chaoyang should not be let go. Who told him to boast that he knew all kinds of things about the capital and repeatedly emphasized that he wanted to be their tour guide, so he called He was right.

When Xu Chaoyang received a call for help from the two, he patted his chest and assured him that the matter was on his shoulders. That was refreshing, and that was positive. After hanging up the phone, he drove to Aijia Manor.

There is a reason for Xu Chaoyang to be like this. Since the incident with the Lin family, Miao Yu has never given them a good face when he came back. He is just a small member of Corey. He has good strength, but he is a pure thug. Specialty, it's easy to become a doormat. Who let them see the most embarrassing and most failed side of Miao Yu? , plus he was closer to the Lin family, when Miao Yu hated Ai Jiujiu, she naturally hated him too, and liked to make trouble for him when she had nothing to do. Hey, who told Miao Yu to be tough in the backstage? If he said that the Xu family has status and status in the circle, if he is still in the family, he must not be afraid of this wicked woman, but who told them that their family has been abandoned by the family? After that, from the moment they entered the secular world, they were no longer under the protection of the family. It would be great if they could borrow some light from the family to improve their lives. This is because his aptitude is good in the family. In order to regain the protection of the family, he needs to make some sacrifices to obtain resources and sell himself to the family at the same time, and he has to conduct an assessment every once in a while. The score must meet the requirements of the family. In such an environment , the pressure is too great, the pace of life is too fast, and the family members only know how to practice besides practicing.

Xu Chaoyang is used to being wild in the secular world, and hates those rules and regulations the most, so he is naturally unwilling to go back. He is very confident in himself, and he is confident that he can still achieve the best results without those resources. In this way, he joined the special third department in the first place, just to help him find a backer. I also know that cases in this world that exceed the normal scope of human beings are still rare. Cases like the Lin family's are serious and important cases. Such a case will not be encountered for a long time, so in fact he is very idle. This kind of life is pretty good, but since Miao Yu started to target him, he has been living in dire straits, and the balance in his heart has also begun to tilt. He has been hesitant about whether to withdraw from the special third department. The department itself is just for its own happiness, and living so aggrieved has seriously violated his original intention. At this moment, he received a call from Ai Jiujiu and Lin Ran. He happened to take this opportunity to come out, no matter whether he asked for leave or not. , or really want to resign, anyway, he doesn't want to stay in that one-third of an acre of land anymore.

After Ai Jiujiu and Lin Ran shared their thoughts and requirements, Xu Chaoyang decided what to do. He had lived in the capital for some years and had a certain understanding of the streets and alleys here. , the introduction is one set, and the destination is the most famous Panjiayuan!

Panjiayuan Flea Market is located in the southeast corner of the Third Ring Road in Beijing. It is the largest flea market in China. It is open for 4 days every Thursday to Sunday. It deals in various cultural relics, calligraphy and painting, four treasures of the study, porcelain and wooden furniture, etc. There are more than 3000 stalls in total. , 24 provinces and cities across the country have people setting up stalls here.

Not only that, there are also many ethnic minorities selling their own products here, so besides food, the products they sell can be said to be various. Some people say that it is like a museum. This is the cheapest flea market in Beijing, attracting a large number of Chinese and foreign buyers. tourists.

The most famous antique markets in Beijing are nothing more than Dashilaner, Liulichang and Panjiayuan. There are many time-honored brands in Dashilan, such as the Liubiju Sauce Garden that opened in the Ming Dynasty, and the famous Chinese medicine store that opened in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. Tongrentang, the Majuyuan Hat Shop and Neiliansheng Shoe Shop that opened during the Jiaqing period, and Ruifuxiang Silk, Satin and Leather Store, which later had four stores, are more like century-old shops than antique markets. The epitome of where it is.

And Liulichang was originally a book market. In the Qing Dynasty, officials and exam candidates often gathered here to visit the book market, and gradually developed into an antique cultural market, but still mainly calligraphy and painting books, such as Huaiyin Shanfang. , Guyizhai, Ruichengzhai, Cuiwenge, Yidege, Li Fushou Bizhuang, Rongbaozhai and other century-old shops are here.

Panjiayuan is different from the above two places. He is famous because of the ghost market mentioned above, and the name of ghost market comes from Panjiayuan.

There is also an allusion here. At the earliest time, Panjiayuan was an abandoned kiln site, and the place was a bit remote. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, when the national fortune declined and many dignitaries and dignitaries fell into decline, they stole the antiques from their homes. Go to Panjiayuan to sell it.

After all, this is a matter of demeaning, so you can only choose to trade with lanterns at three or four in the morning, because most of the items sold in this ghost market are of unknown origin and have unspeakable secrets. It's a cheap sale.

As a result, rumors of "good products coming out of the ghost market" spread. Of course, although there is no need to hide and hide, the tradition of opening the market at four o'clock in the morning has been continued.

After 1992, Panjiayuan gradually formed a second-hand goods market. In just a few years, it developed into the largest collection and distribution center for antiques and second-hand goods in the country. National costumes, relics of the Cultural Revolution and even daily necessities, except for arms, drugs, and population, as long as you can think of valuable items, you can find them in Panjiayuan.

The current Panjiayuan's reputation in the hearts of the public has far surpassed Liulichang and Dashilan. Even many foreign presidents and dignitaries have visited here, and a huge business circle has formed around it.

Panjiayuan is only open four days a week, and weekends are naturally the busiest. When Xu Chaoyang enthusiastically imparted some necessary knowledge to the three of them walking into Panjiayuan, they couldn't help being slightly shocked by the sight in front of them. a handful.

Where is this antique market? The vulgar-faced peddler, speaking fluent English, was negotiating the price with a foreign girl.

Xu Chaoyang's eyelids couldn't help twitching at such a lively scene, thinking that maybe he should take him to Liulichang, he shouldn't come here just because he has acquaintances, if there is no Lin Ran's needs from his acquaintances The goods, then they are not guilty of nothing, in such a hot weather, just imagining how they look like walking in the crowd, he can't help sweating. If you want to buy antiques, you still have to go to Liulichang. Xu Chaoyang only now understands the meaning of this sentence.

There are more than 3000 stalls, and there are millions of products in total.

But the most important thing is that although there are many antiques left over from our country, we can’t help but sell them like this. You don’t need to look at them at all. Xu Chaoyang knows in his heart that there may be one real thing out of a hundred objects in other places. Yes, but here, I am afraid that among the 1 objects, it is really good to have one.

Xu Chaoyang now understood the meaning of that person's words at the beginning. In addition, they are all novices and know nothing about antiques. If they want to find something real here, the chances of winning the first prize in the lottery are probably better than buying a lottery ticket. Not going anywhere.

Is it because of lack of general experience, Xu Chaoyang is very familiar with the terrain here, but obviously not enough, the last time I came here was when I was in school nearly ten years ago, when the Xu family came out a few years ago A clan uncle lived here and taught him some undisclosed martial arts experience. He ran here diligently. Until the clan uncle passed away, he turned around all the streets and alleys here. , At that time, the place was not so prosperous, the wind of antiques had just started, and there were not so many people. If you look carefully, you can still find one or two real things.

His uncle likes these things, and he wanted to give them to him, but unfortunately he didn't like them, so that uncle had to pass them on to another apprentice in the antique world, because With the relationship of that clan uncle, Xu Chaoyang had a pretty good relationship with that senior brother who was obviously a round older than him. It was just that the relationship faded after the two of them had less time to contact each other because of their two different industries. , but being busy, Xu Chaoyang still misses this senior brother very much. From time to time, he will inquire about his current situation, knowing that he is doing well in the antique circle, and has his own famous shop. Then I was completely relieved.

After Xu Chaoyang heard what Ai Jiujiu and Lin Ran meant, the first thing he thought of was that brother's shop, so he stepped here again after many years, but he didn't expect that it was only a few years, and this place was already a different place. A scene.

"Xu Chaoyang, is this the Panjiayuan? It's so lively!"

Lin Ran himself likes to be lively and has the temperament to make friends. He got out as soon as the car stopped. It was the first time he saw such a lively scene. He stood at the gate of Panjiayuan. In the stalls together, there are tens of hundreds of objects on each stall, including porcelain, bronze, pottery, iron, and wood, including the four treasures of the study, jewelry, everything, and the excitement of his mood can be imagined.

"Is it because it's like this on weekends or on weekdays... um, there are so many people?"

Ai Jiujiu followed Lin Ran out of the car, looked at the bustling crowd in front of him, and muttered to herself, obviously not as happy as Lin Ran, she took Kong Ci out of the car with some worry, thinking of this little guy The illness, I regret bringing him here, how can I break it...

Regardless of whether it was Ai Jiujiu or Lin Ran, it was obvious that their concerns were completely different from Xu Chaoyang's, which made Xu Chaoyang, who was secretly worrying, dumbfounded.
