Chapter 76 Opening of the Jade Exhibition
Yesterday I was the president of the Tianhai Jade Association, and I also experienced a wonderful treasure hunt. Today I met Mr. Chu’s friend, Mr. Wei, a master of archeology, and he also regarded the door of the convention and exhibition center as nothing, and he could enter whenever he wanted.
Liu Yuan couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.
Is this still the ordinary Fang You who couldn't even find a job? Mr. Chu handed him his invitation, which proves that Fang You can act as Mr. Chu and fully represent Mr. Chu. This kind of honor
How many people want to get it, but they can only look at the moon and sigh.
Moreover, the jade he bought for 100 yuan in his jade shop turned into ancient jade from the Warring States Period in an instant, which Liu Yuanshan couldn't accept, but the fact was before him, and he had to accept it.
Although there are traces of Mr. Chu in these things, if Fang You does not have the same level of antiques as him, he will never get the attention of Mr. Li. Even if he is the son of Tianwang Laozi and has no level, these older generation of people in the antiques industry
, I will never take a young boy seriously.
"Uncle, who told you to run out so early in the morning? We couldn't even find anyone, otherwise you could have gone with us." Seeing Liu Yuanshan shaking his head and sighing regretfully, Wang Hao seemed to be a little gloating.
Liu Yuanshan smiled helplessly, "Oh, I went to the ghost market today to search for treasures. I went there at twelve o'clock in the morning. Unfortunately, I didn't find any good treasures. They were all fake goods."
"Is there a ghost market in Tianhai City?" Fang You asked in surprise, with a lot of expectation in his tone. He had heard of the ghost market since he started playing antiques, but he had never seen one.
However, this time I heard that there was a ghost market around me, and I immediately wanted to go and see it.
When Wang Hao heard this term, he felt a cold wind blowing from all around, and his whole body felt chilly. "Uncle, what is a ghost market? Is there really a ghost?"
"This is what your kid is going to do in this life. If you learn some antique knowledge, you will know how to play. Xiaoyou, tell him what the ghost market is and whether there are real ghosts." Liu Yuanshan scolded him with a bit of hatred for iron.
With.
Wang Hao, who had a hot temper, did not talk to Liu Yuanshan. His heart was like a mirror, knowing that Liu Yuanshan's words were for his own good.
Speaking of "ghost markets" can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. For example, in the city of Beijing, "ghost markets" were at their peak in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, the country's fortunes were declining and the country was about to perish. The emperor could hardly survive, let alone his ministers.
Many leftovers of the Qing Dynasty, rich and poor, had trouble even eating after their family fortunes were ruined. In the end, they could only survive by selling the few things left by their ancestors.
But after all, this is something that is degrading to one's status. After all, people like myself were once prominent, so how can we afford to lose such face?
So these former Qing nobles were afraid that someone would recognize them, so they took advantage of the half-dark light before dawn to sneak antiques to the street, stand on the street with lanterns and set up stalls to sell them, avoiding acquaintances and making antiques.
Buying and selling. There are also some thieves and tomb robbers who sell the stolen things in the dark. Because they all have secrets that cannot be told, most of them can only be sold at low prices.
As a result, the rumor that "ghost markets produce good products" spread. It also attracted many antique connoisseurs to often pick up some bargains in the ghost market. Because the light of the market before dawn was dim, the voices of people were mixed, and the treasure hunter's voice was mixed.
The figure moves like a ghost, and the bad guys call this antique market "ghost market".
In fact, the lights in the ghost market are dim. In the past, there were many valuable things. Now, most of them are antique shops to earn extra money. Although many things in the ghost market are poor, you can bargain casually. Although many of them are
There are imitations, but there are also treasures, especially in the hands of some tomb robbers.
"Oh, I understand. It turns out that there are not really ghosts in this ghost market, but they are all sneaky people buying and selling things, so it is called a ghost market." Wang Hao looked like he suddenly understood, and Liu Yuanshan couldn't help but kick him.
He kicked it home.
After listening to this, Wang Hao became very interested in the ghost market and said, "Uncle, will there be a ghost market tomorrow? Let's go together. I've grown so old that I haven't even gotten up in the early morning to go shopping."
Seeing Wang Hao and Fang You staring at him expectantly, Liu Yuanshan smiled and shook his head, "Not tomorrow, we have to attend the jade exhibition tomorrow, and the ghost market here is a small one every three days, and a big one every five days.
City, let’s go there together the day after tomorrow, don’t blame me if you’re scared, haha.”
"We have to wait until the day after tomorrow, but at least we can go to the exhibition tomorrow to see beauties. Hey, summer is really good for eye development." Wang Hao, who was a little disappointed, suddenly lit up his eyes and snickered with a sly look on his face.
Fang You had a headache. Is it true that the legend said that fat people only have two hobbies, one is beautiful women, and the other is eating and drinking. "Beauty, you are so fat and lazy. I will count on you to find a wife in this life."
I'm done." Looking at Wang Hao's squinting eyes and drooling, Liu Yuanshan pointed at Wang Hao and said with a bit of laughter.
Since they had to get up early tomorrow to attend the opening of the jade exhibition, Liu Yuanshan and others went back to their rooms to prepare for bed.
"Little wanderer, would you like a couple of drinks?" Fang You took a bath and was about to go to bed when Wang Hao sneaked in with a bottle of yellow mineral water.
Every time he saw the yellow liquid in the mineral water, Fang You had an evil thought. In fact, when he was in college, the group of animals in his dormitory did these things.
I am in the mood to play games, play World of Warcraft, or watch educational movies. I suddenly feel the urge to urinate, but I am too lazy and don’t want to run to the bathroom one meter away. What should I do? There happens to be an empty mineral water bottle next to me, so someone is wretched.
He smiled. Within a few days, all the animals in the dormitory had learned it. From then on, there were several bottles of yellow mineral water in the dormitory every day. This experience really left Fang You with a psychological shadow.
.
"Why, why are you frowning? You don't want to drink." Wang Hao chuckled and said nothing more. He just quietly unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle, and suddenly a strong fragrance filled the room.
Fang You couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed the mineral water bottle in Wang Hao's hand, took out two plastic cups from the hotel cabinet, filled two cups, and started to drink.
"Brother You, be calm, be calm, don't spill it, this is a liquid that is comparable to gold." Wang Hao grimaced, stretched out his hand to catch it, for fear that if even a little bit spilled, it's not yours, don't you care?
, Wang Hao finally understood this truth.
Smelling the familiar aroma, Fang You smiled. He missed the big wine cellar in his home. There is wine today and he will be drunk the next day. Don't wait to face the moon without wine.
Early the next morning, when Fang You and Wang Hao were sleeping soundly, they were woken up by Liu Yuanshan, "Oh, uncle, you are dressed like a general manager today." Wang Hao got up and looked,
Liu Yuanshan stood in front of him in a suit and leather shoes, with his hair combed handsomely.
Wang Hao turned his head to Fang You, "Young boy, why don't we get some suits to wear too."
"If you can fit it in, then you can wear it. I can't get used to wearing a suit." Fang You shook his head, then looked at Wang Hao's fat body and smiled.
Liu Yuanshan did not force them. There were so many people from all walks of life at the jade exhibition. It was not a formal occasion at all. It was just that he had to discuss some business with a few bosses today, so he had to leave a good first impression for others.
In my impression, I was wearing a tank top, shorts, and flip-flops on my feet, just like walking on the street.
More than 100 jewelry companies came to Tianhai City to participate in the jade exhibition this time, and even attracted some famous foreign jewelry brands to participate in the exhibition, hoping to open up the huge Chinese market.
Of course, the most important ones are the wealthy people invited to participate in the jade exhibition, as well as jewelers from various regions. They are the main customers of the jewelry companies participating in the exhibition.
