Chapter 84

Two people out of the hotel a few steps, Wang color on the arm of Guan Shanyue, finally can be together.

At this time, the setting sun shines in the west, and the shadow is drawn long. You have me and I have you. They wandered aimlessly, looking at the exotic atmosphere in the streets, Wang Cai felt infinitely satisfied.

Through a street, in front of you is an open market, full of people and bustling. Vendors drive trucks carrying goods and set up stalls in the open air. Goods are displayed on the ground or on shelves. Wang Cai said, "it looks like a market there. Let's go and see what the market is like for foreigners." Idle is also idle, women happy, Guan Shanyue followed Wang CAI into the market.

When I went inside, it was all second-hand goods. Guan Shanyue didn't know it was called flea market. The sunlight sifts down from the gap in the shade of the forest. It's easy to walk around looking for old things. After a general look, there are all kinds of things to sell.

There are porcelain with a long history, CDs full of stories, old military goods, kitchen supplies, second-hand clothing, etc. There are also Czech glassware, Vintage German beer cups, simple and elegant Italian old-fashioned hanging lamps, 18th Century Tin utensils, French binoculars, and so on. There are traditional antiques and medieval collections. Of course, Chinese items are indispensable, including paintings, ceramics, silverware, decorations, old objects from the 1960s and 1970s, and Chinese ones Modern stamps, as well as many stamps from the cultural revolution.

Guan Shanyue knows no matter how silly she is. She sells antiques here. I didn't expect that she and antiques were really predestined. I'd like to get active and try to buy an antique? I don't know if there are many fake goods here. After watching for a long time, I still feel comfortable seeing things in China. I thought to myself, it's really not something that can be cultivated in a day or two.

Since she got two pieces of porcelain, Guan Shanyue has done a lot of work on it, but it's another matter to put it into practice. At least he has learned a lot about the basic knowledge. He can clearly remember the characteristics and styles of porcelain of different dynasties, so he seems to be able to say one or two or three things.

Guan Shanyue's main concern is whether the style is correct and whether the porcelain is complete. At a porcelain stall, Guan Shanyue saw a white porcelain bowl, which was very delicate. When she took it up and looked at it carefully, she could not see why. However, she turned over the bottom of the bowl and saw that there was a "Ying" carved in the middle of the bottom of the bowl. She thought, is this Xingyao white porcelain? I can't help it.

Take a closer look, see the bottom mold printed double fish pattern, fish pattern decorated with sea water pattern around. The body of the fetus is white, dense and light, the foot end is exposed, the glaze is smooth, and the glaze color is pure white, bright and lustrous. Guan Shanyue secretly admires herself, but also can say so many knowledge points.

Guan Shanyue knew that Xing kiln in late Tang Dynasty could also be called transparent white porcelain because of its thin body. What are the characteristics of the above? Gently tap the bowl to make a crisp metal sound, like. So Guan Shanyue winked at Wang CAI and asked her to ask about the price.

Wang Cai uses half baked English to communicate with his boss. The boss's asking price is not high, 200 dollars. Once Guan Shanyue heard this, she had no root in her heart. Although I don't know the market situation, if it's really a "profit" bowl, I can't buy it for $200. However, it occurred to me that unlike other porcelain bowls, this white porcelain bowl does not have a time mark at the bottom, which I don't think foreigners know. Moreover, the word "Ying" seems to be engraved on it, so foreigners don't know what it is. After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to buy it. Then he signaled Wang CAI to mark the price for the foreigner.

Wang Cai didn't agree with Guan Shanyue to buy this incongruous thing, so he wanted to stir it up and said, "two dollars." The foreigner was worried and mumbled for a long time, but Wang Cai didn't understand a word. Guan Shanyue also know how to say two dollars, said with a smile: "you are cruel enough, dare to give two dollars?" Wang Cai said: "it's more than two dollars. Isn't it a bowl?" Guan Shanyue advised: "you ask again." Wang Cai had to ask the foreigner how much money he could sell.

The foreigner hesitated for a moment and asked, "is 100 dollars OK?" Guan Shanyue can also understand this sentence, which means that if the bowl is not fake, or the foreigner does not know whether it is true or not. Guan Shanyue didn't know whether it was true or not. She just wanted to be big and small, so she said, "you can talk to him. You can buy it for no more than 20 dollars."

Wang Cai is communicating with foreigners. Guan Shanyue looks down. When I went to a grocery stall, I saw that most of the goods were labeled with prices. Guan Shanyue was very happy in his heart. The boss was good and had a good communication with him, so he squatted down and looked carefully. Eyes swept a circle, a black porcelain bowl attracted Guan Shanyue's attention. When you take it up and have a look at it, it has a complete shape and a relatively heavy handle. The pattern is a natural combination of triangle, rectangle, polygon and so on. There is a layer of red color at the bottom where the tire is exposed. Touch the abdominal wall with your hand, it seems that the glaze is clear and smooth, and the glaze juice is lustrous and moist, so you can't say anything else. Guan Shanyue's heart moved, is it really the ice pattern glaze of Song Dynasty? Looking at the price of $2, Guan Shanyue took out $2 to his boss without saying a word.

Guan Shanyue wondered why the things at the grocery stall were cheap?

It turns out that, on the one hand, the elderly in European and American families rarely live with their children. Once the old man dies, the children rush back to the old man's home to deal with their affairs. In the process of processing, the old things left by the old people are inevitably worth collecting antiques and cultural relics. Children often don't care about it and just treat it as old things. The eight countries' allied forces have been sweeping in China.On the other hand, businessmen and shops specializing in dealing with old things and operating "second-hand goods" often do not understand the connotation and extension of ancient Chinese cultural relics, antiques or art works. They only know that these things are old things, what the purchase price is, and they can earn a certain price difference after selling them. A few of the old goods operators know that something is antique, but they don't know how much it costs in Chinese mainland. This imbalance of information feedback on Chinese mainland artifacts, antiques or artwork will inevitably bring Taobao China "collectors" opportunities.

Guan Shanyue stood up with a bowl and looked back. Wang Cai also came, holding the bowl and said, "OK, 10 dollars." Guan Shanyue boasted: "great! If you want me to buy one, you can't take it down. " Wang Cai said discontentedly, "why do you spend money on this? Do you understand? " Guan Shanyue said: "I don't know much about it, so we'll spend a little money on it. It doesn't matter whether it's true or not." Wang Cai "cut" a, then no longer words.

Guan Shanyue and Wang Cai turned around for a while and found a problem: the prices charged by the special porcelain stalls were higher, while the prices charged by the general goods stalls were lower. But at this time, it was late, and the owners began to close the stall gradually, so Guan Shanyue had to leave, ready to have time to come and have a look.

They were about to stand up, but there was a dispute in the distance. Guan Shanyue didn't want to meddle in his own business. After all, he was abroad, but when he saw that it was two foreigners pushing and shoving a young man with yellow skin, he was very angry. Guan Shanyue is holding a bowl in one hand and Wang CAI in the other hand. She wants to know what the situation is.

When Guan Shanyue came near, he began to knock instead of pushing and shoving. The young man was evasive and didn't dare to fight back. Others were indifferent. They packed up their own things one after another. Guan Shanyue said to Wang Cai, "let them stop and have something to say." Guan Shanyue opened her mouth and said, "I'm Chinese. Help me."

Now that she had asked for help, Guan Shanyue was no longer polite. She went up and grabbed a man's hand and said, "stop!" The two foreigners were fierce and bearded. They looked fierce. When they saw a young man with delicate skin and flesh, they couldn't see him. They muttered loudly to Guan Shanyue. Don't understand Wang Shanyue. Guan Shanyue thought, no matter what you mean, bullying Chinese people will not work.

The foreigner tried hard to break away from Guan Shanyue's hand, but he didn't want Guan Shanyue's hand to be stronger. He didn't break away after earning twice. He became angry and yelled, and another fist rushed to Guan Shanyue's head. How can Guan Shanyue let him succeed? As soon as he twisted his wrist, the foreigner knelt on the ground with a cry. The other raised his foot and kicked. Wang CAI was the first to kick his knee, and the man fell to the ground. Guan Shanyue released her hand and then raised her foot to kick the foreigner to the ground.

Guan Shanyue went to pick up the young man and said, "what should I do?" "Let them go," he said, trembling Wang Cai cheered, "get? Lost!" The two foreigners saw that there was a big gap between them, so they did not dare to go away.

"Can I help you?" Guan asked The young man hesitated and asked, "what do you do?" Guan Shanyue said, "we came here for tourism. And you? " The boy said, "it's hard to say. Can you help me return home? " Guan Shanyue said, "this is our first time to go abroad. I'm really inexperienced in this aspect. Why don't we find a place to have dinner and talk while eating?"

The young man blushed and said, "I have no money." Guan Shanyue said with a smile: "it doesn't cost much to have a meal. Let's go. It's fate to meet you. I invite you. Help us find a pizza shop. " The young man said thank you, picked up the paper box and took Guan Shanyue to the pizza shop. As he walked, he talked about his contacts.

His name is Zhang Xinde, from Hunan. His father settled here after studying abroad. He took his grandfather and him over last year. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected situation. It didn't take long for my father and mother to go out and be killed by a big car. There were only two grandsons left. Grandfather is in poor health. He lost his son in his old age. He is depressed every day. Soon he will die. Here he is.

After his grandfather died, the two men saw that he was young and easy to bully, so they forged an IOU, saying that his father owed them $200000 to repay, and beat him if he didn't give it. After being beaten several times by them, Zhang Xinde had to give money. But how can I have so much money at home? There's no way to start selling.

His grandfather was a retired cadre of Liling ceramic factory. He loved porcelain all his life and collected a lot of porcelain. When he went abroad, he brought a lot of porcelain, and he lived by selling it. These days did not sell a piece, the two ruffians are not satisfied, and began to kick him. When they met Guan Shanyue, they were able to avoid this pass for the time being.
