Lin Xiaohu smiled and said: "This is the most typical Chinese psychology, always remember your past glory, and don't want to face up to the achievements of others in modern times." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Until now, I still talk about the four great inventions of the ancients all day long, and I can't see that other American exploration vehicles are going to fly to Mars. ”

Xu Zhenzhen didn't like to talk to him about such heavy topics, and said: "You know that there is a Panjiayuan thrift market in the capital, which sells antiques and cultural relics handed down from the old generation. Lin Xiaohu said: "You don't care how big he is, and more importantly, whether you can receive the beads there." Xu Zhenzhen said: "It should be the same, I used to see it in a store when I came here before." ”

When the car arrives at the entrance of the thrift market, it can't drive inside, but can only park on the side of the road. The three got out of the car and walked into the thrift market.

Lin Xiaohu glanced at it, good guy, this thrift market is really not small, the whole pedestrian street, the first thing that catches the eye is the crowded flow of people, it is really crowded, rubbing shoulders, men, women and children, tall and low, fat and thin, all kinds of people, etc., are all different, I am afraid that there will be tens of thousands of people. On both sides of the road there are all kinds of stalls, on both sides of the stalls are a family of antique shops, people or squatting in front of the stalls to browse all kinds of goods, or in and out of the shops, the whole market is noisy and bustling, its liveliness is the same as a temple fair.

Xu Zhenzhen joked to Lin Xiaohu: "You have to pull Sister Maomao well, otherwise you will be squeezed out." Lin Xiaohu smiled and took Guo Maomao's hand and asked, "I pull Maomao, who pulls you?" Xu Zhenzhen hugged Guo Maomao's arm and said, "Sister Maomao pulled me." ”

The three of them followed the flow of people towards the market, and their pace was extremely slow as they had to browse the stalls on both sides of the road. The initial plan was this: when entering the market, first look for the existence of fluorite beads on the stalls. If you can't find what you're looking for at the stalls, when you get back to the end, look for them in the shops on both sides.

Coming to a stall, Lin Xiaohu stared at it, and saw that this stall was about three meters long and two meters wide, and the stall owner spread a piece of felt cloth on the ground with a size of three meters by two meters, and placed goods on it, and then set his eyes on these goods.

What's on it? bronze ones include, ding, sword, hammer, spear head, etc.; jade types include, bracelets, chains, beads, pendants, rings, etc.; There are coins, knife coins, shell coins, copper coins of various dynasties and generations, Yuan Datou, etc.; Necklaces include, turquoise chains, pearl chains, morning pearls, sandalwood, etc.; porcelain includes bowls, basins, pots, saucers, etc.; Silk cloth products include, embroidered shoes, three-inch shoes, the kind of palace shoes stepped on by women in the Qing Dynasty, dragon robes, court clothes, official hats, etc.; Books include old books bound in various threads, books from the literary period, and quotations from the guards. And that's just the name of the thing, and there are many more that I don't know what to call it.

Lin Xiaohu visited this kind of antique cultural relics market for the first time, and saw that there were such rich types and goods on a small stall, and he was very surprised to see it, and he really wanted to squat down and take a closer look at everything, but he didn't forget the real purpose of this trip, so he forced himself to put away the psychology of hunting, and didn't look at those things that had nothing to do with fluorite beads.

The three of them walked all the way to the depths of the market, not to mention, the existence of fluorite beads was found on at least two stalls. One of the stalls gave the name of "Warring States Fluorite Beads", a total of five, each of which is the size of a sanitary ball, with small holes drilled at the top, the surface is rough and worn, and the quality is very poor, Xu Zhenzhen and Lin Xiaohu did not consider it; On another stall, there is a genuine large fluorite bead, slightly larger than the tortoiseshell, similar to a small fitness stone ball, the whole body is goose yellow, crystal clear, at first glance it looks like a pearl carved out of Tianhuang stone. Cover the bead with both hands to keep the light from entering, and then look in through your fingers with your eyes, and you can see that the bead exudes a blue-green glow, which is a typical "night pearl".

The stall owner was a sloppy man in his forties, and seeing that Lin Xiaohu and the three of them were very interested in this bead, he accosted him: "Do you want to buy it?" The pearl of the night, the only one in the thrift market, if you miss it, there will be no more, hey...... Don't miss it when you pass by, and you won't regret buying it! ”

Xu Zhenzhen frowned and looked at Lin Xiaohu, and whispered, "It's a pity that the color is wrong." Lin Xiaohu also felt that this bead was too yellow, too far from the light bright blue of the tortoiseshell, if it was said that Ambilight could fool the past, then the huge difference in color would probably not be able to hide from the antique dealer, and said, "Look at it." ”

When the stall owner heard that the two were leaving, he hurriedly got up and shouted: "Hey, don't blame me for not reminding you, the whole thrift market is just my pearl of the night." If you don't buy it and let someone else buy it, you will regret it. This bead is not expensive, 5,000 yuan, you buy it sincerely, I will give you a 20% discount, 4,000 yuan, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, how about it? ”

Lin Xiaohu asked: "You said that the entire thrift market is just your night pearl, no, we just walked all the way and saw several." I also wondered, why are people's beads white or light blue, but yours are yellow? The stall owner exclaimed, "That's because they're all fake, and only mine is real." Don't believe you try the glow-in-the-dark effect, hey...... They wouldn't be able to light up at night without lighting beforehand. Look at me again, even if I keep it in the cellar all the time, it will glow by itself at night. ”

When Lin Xiaohu heard this answer, he was not satisfied, and now he and Xu Zhenzhen were entangled not with the beads or not, but with the wrong color, and asked: "You don't have any other colors?" Only such a yellow one? The stall owner said, "Yes, just this one, what color do you want?" Let me tell you, this kind of treasure is hard to find, you can meet it is your blessing, and you still want to pick the color? How could that be? Do you know how I got this bead? Lin Xiaohu asked curiously, "Tell me." The stall owner said excitedly: "Hey, this is what I collected from an old fisherman in the countryside when I went to Yangzhou Taobao Beibei." He said that when he went to the river to catch clams, he pulled up a net and poured it into the boat, and in addition to the stone clams, there was also this bead. He thought it was the night pearl in the Dragon King's Crystal Palace, and he hid it when he got it to the house. Later, I went to their house to collect the treasure, and the old fisherman took it out and sold it to me. ”

Although the stall owner said that the origin of this so-called "night pearl" is very bizarre and full of realistic romanticism, Lin Xiaohu and Xu Zhenzhen did not buy it in the end. The color of this bead is too different from that tortoiseshell, and this is the only and most fatal bruise, which is unacceptable.

After visiting the stalls, the three of them swept through all the shops on both sides of the market, and finally returned to the car disappointed.

Guo Maomao still doesn't understand, why didn't Xu Zhenzhen buy the big, round and beautiful night pearl? It's wrong to say it's color, but what color do you care about it, can it be "luminous"? Curiously asked, "Zhenzhen, why don't you buy that yellow night pearl?" How pretty. Xu Zhenzhen shook her head and said, "The color is wrong." Guo Maomao wondered, "What color do you want?" Does its color matter? If it can shine at night, it doesn't matter what color it is? Xu Zhenzhen showed a bitter smile on her pretty face, and said, "Color is not important to me, but it is important to others." There is an antique dealer from the capital who wants to order a light blue night pearl from the provincial capital, and of course I have to come according to his needs. Guo Maomao realized that she was doing the business of Night Pearl, and asked, "What if you can't find it?" ”

Xu Zhenzhen muttered: "Yes, what should I do if I can't find it?" After speaking, he raised his hand and patted Lin Xiaohu on the shoulder, and said, "You say, what if you can't find it?" Lin Xiaohu was using his mobile phone to search for fluorite processing factories near the provincial capital, and said: "Wait a minute, I have found several fluorite processing factories located in the provincial capital." If it really doesn't work, let's go to the factory to buy the rough stone, and then ask the jade craftsman to cut the rough stone into the beads we want. Xu Zhenzhen's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said happily: "If you can do this, I will reward you well." ”

Guo Maomao didn't know the intimate relationship between Xu Zhenzhen and Lin Xiaohu at all, so she couldn't hear the ambiguous taste contained in her words, and hurriedly said, "What is polite to him?" Xu Zhenzhen said seriously: "He's your husband, it's okay if I'm not polite to him?" If he were my husband, I wouldn't be polite to him. Guo Maomao smiled: "Then you don't have to be polite." Xu Zhenzhen teased her: "I'm a dead-eyed person, admit death, you want me not to be polite to him, unless I let him be my husband, okay, Sister Maomao?" Hey? Guo Maomao was amused and joked with her: "Okay, why not?" You take it away, and he will be your husband from now on, hehe. Xu Zhenzhen said: "Are you willing?" Guo Maomao smiled: "Then what's reluctant?" ”

Xu Zhenzhen said with a playful face: "You are so generous, I am embarrassed to swallow it alone." In this way, the two of us divided him, one and a half. He's both your husband and mine, okay? Ha ha. Guo Maomao smiled and said, "I'll see it." Xu Zhenzhen said: "Then I will be like you in the future, and I will also call him husband, don't be jealous." Guo Maomao smiled: "I'm not jealous, you can call it whatever you want." Xu Zhenzhen said: "Then it's decided." Guo Maomao smiled: "Okay, you, hehe." Xu Zhenzhen said: "You are really generous, even your husband can share it with others." After that, you will be bigger, I will be smaller, and we will both be his daughters-in-law. Guo Maomao said with a smile: "Okay, no problem, simply, when we hold the wedding, you will also worship heaven and earth together." Xu Zhenzhen chirped: "Phew, I'm really cheap him!" Xu Zhenzhen smiled: "Didn't you want him to be her husband?" ”

Lin Xiaohu browsed the information about the fluorite processing factory on his mobile phone, and listened to the second daughter laughing, when he heard that Xu Zhenzhen was seeking the identity of "little wife" with Guo Maomao in person, he was very excited, only to feel that his body was hot and blushing, and his body was so hot that he couldn't do it, and he secretly wondered, the reason why she said this was just joking with Maomao?

Half an hour later, the three of them appeared in the office of a fluorite processing factory in a rural area on the eastern outskirts of the provincial capital.
