After leaving Professor Lu's house, Lin Xuerou asked Xu Yun several times why she was in such a hurry, but Xu Yun did not answer positively. He didn't want an old professor who was so upright in Lin Xuerou's heart to suddenly become a negative teaching material, and in the absence of definite evidence, Xu Yun would definitely not talk nonsense.
"What the hell are you going to ask Professor Lu, why is his face so bad?" Before Lin Xuerou left, she also found something wrong, in the past, if she left, Professor Lu would politely stay for a while, but this time she didn't say anything, and said goodbye very plainly.
Xu Yun took a deep breath: "Even you can see it, which means that there must be a problem with the question I asked." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Lin Xuerou's brain was so big that Xu Yun was messed up, she couldn't understand what Xu Yun's words meant, there must be a problem with the question asked, why ask if there is no problem?
Xu Yun shrugged his shoulders: "There are some things that I don't know about myself, and I really can't explain them to you." I believe Professor Lo is a good man, but I am worried that he will be taken advantage of. By the way, in addition to being in school, does Professor Lu often come into contact with people outside the campus circle? ”
"What are you doing, check the household registration, what's wrong with Professor Lu? Didn't you say that you would talk to him about academic issues, why did you suddenly care about him? Lin Xuerou said: "I don't care, if you don't explain things to me clearly, I won't answer you." ”
Xu Yun sighed helplessly: "Then there is no way, because I really can't tell you clearly." ”
Lin Xuerou was speechless: "Cut, it's so stingy, don't say anything to others." In fact, Professor Lu rarely socializes with people outside the school, and if he has the most frequent contact outside the school, it is probably only his son, but his son seems to have not been home for two years......
Two years...... Xu Yun gasped, Yuanbo and their homeland were occupied, I'm afraid it has been two years.
Maybe there are many coincidences in the world, and Xu Yun can only hope that this is the case.
Seeing that Xu Yun stopped talking and began to fugue about other things, Lin Xuerou also ignored him angrily, all the way until she returned home, Lin Xuerou didn't ask, Xu Yun didn't seem to have anything to say. Lin Xuerou was even more angry, so she simply went back to the room and closed the door, ignoring Xu Yun no longer.
When Xu Yun reacted, Lin Xuerou had already returned to the room, and he really didn't know how he had offended this eldest lady. Lin Shihai is not at home today, because the first-level combat readiness has been lifted, he is busy going to the city near Yanjing to open a furniture and building materials group buying event, and it is estimated that he will not be at home in the next two or three days.
After returning to the room and taking a bath, Xu Yun began to meditate on the bed, breathe and breathe, and adjust his mood and veins. After the Shenlong Brigade experienced the baptism of the poppy beauty, Xu Yun's whole person seemed much more relaxed, Xiang Ke's internal force was dissipated, and his operation was very smooth, what Xu Yun didn't expect was that after he exuded the internal force of Zhiyang Tongzigong, his own internal force could actually get a breakthrough in the general leap.
It stands to reason that Xu Yun hasn't met Guoguo for a long time, why can his state of mind still maintain a rapid growth process? After several guesses, Xu Yun can basically lock in the end, and the growth of his current strength is because when the internal force of the Zhiyang Tongzi Gong blocks the part of the external force that is not hindered, so his state of mind strength will be improved by leaps and bounds.
After three reincarnations of luck, Xu Yun also went to bed early, and he will have to get up early tomorrow morning. Now that he has promised Yuanbo to help him, Xu Yun must do something.
……
At three or four o'clock in the morning, Xu Yun went all the way east along the West Third Ring Road, the sky was unclear and the neon was flashing. When he came to the southwest of Panjiayuan Bridge, he saw the crowded Panjiayuan thrift market at night. This is the ghost market of Panjiayuanzi, which is famous throughout the country. This ghost market refers to the opening time of the market. In the past, the ghost market in Yanjing City was also called the night market, also known as the Xiao market.
In the past, the night market refers to the beginning of the second half of the night, limited to the dawn, and the stalls will be closed at dawn. Such as the "Dongxiao City" outside the Chongwen Gate, the "Night Market" outside the Xuanwu Gate and the "Xiao Market" outside the Desheng Gate. The ghost market of Panjiayuan belongs to the ghost market of Lao Yanjing, and it has been opened since three or four o'clock in the morning, and there are many people.
Speaking of the reason for the rise of this ghost market, we have to talk about the turbulent era when the late Qing Dynasty was about to die, when even the emperor could not be saved, let alone the courtiers, many Qing court nobles, broken and rich, and their families could not make a living after the decline of their families, so they could only survive by selling the little property left by their ancestors.
But after all, once famous, where can you put down the shelf and lose face? So taking advantage of the half-bright and half-dark light before dawn, he took antiques and secretly sold them on the street, not only avoiding acquaintances, but also making a sale. Yanjing is the imperial city, it was the concentration of bureaucratic families back then, and there were many dilapidated dignitaries at this time.
At that time, the sky was not bright and there was no electric light, the black paint was black, the poor lit the flint, the rich carried lanterns, and under the faint and shabby lighting equipment like ghost fire, the figures shuttled and stopped, erratic. There are not half ghosts, and the ghosts are there first. In addition, many gentlemen on the beam also came here to get rid of some shady things, and there were even counterfeiters who took advantage of the chaos to peddle some fakes, both of which were sneaky. No matter what, it is inseparable from the word "ghost".
So this ghost market has been called a ghost market until now.
To be honest, this is the first time Xu Yun has come to Panjiayuan thrift market, and he is not here because he is in the mood to shop for antiques, he is simply looking for people.
As soon as he entered the gate of Panjiayuan thrift market, Xu Yun was instantly infected by the atmosphere here, although it was early in the morning, it was very lively. There is an endless stream of people Taobao in the ghost market, and many people are holding flashlights and cloth bags, and they are obsessed with collecting at a glance. Because the buyers who are really knowledgeable generally appear in the ghost market of Panjiayuan, they rarely appear in broad daylight.
During the day, many stalls in the Panjiayuan Market are empty, and most of the sellers sit and chat, and they ignore the buyers after seeing them, and they don't do much to buy and sell. The vendors in the market and the regular customers who often come and go here know in their hearts that the real time for work in the Panjiayuan Market is in this ghost market that is dark in the morning.
Due to the depth of the antique trading industry, most of the items placed in the flat rib are worthless items, and if you want to find good things, you must be able to achieve it in the ghost market. During the day, most of the vendors put up some high-quality fakes, and many of the people who bought them were people who did not know how to do it. Only in the ghost market will the vendors show the real thing, and the people who come here to Taobao are also connoisseurs, so the goods can also be sold for a price.
That's why Xu Yun came to find someone at this time, otherwise, he really didn't know where to go to find Ma San'er.
Because there are too many people in this place, and Xu Yun is here for the first time, it sounds very difficult. What's more, now that they are all here to do business, most of the vendors immediately ignored Xu Yun as soon as they heard that Xu Yun was inquiring about people. Therefore, it is as difficult for Xu Yun to find Ma San'er in this ghost market as it is to go down to the river to catch shrimp.
But in the end, the hard work paid off, and Xu Yun finally saw Ma San'er in a corner.
"Hey, if you want a real treasure, you're willing to pay for it. You can ask around, when did my Panjiayuanzi ghost market Ma San'er have a fake in his hands. Ma San'er held a goblet in his hand and said to a guest wearing a hat in front of the stall: "The Jingdezhen colored porcelain goblet of the Yuan Dynasty engraved with an inscription!" I tell you, it's not easy for this thing to come out, if you really know the goods, then make a real price. I'm not trying to make money, I'm just making friends. ”
"I want this thing." Xu Yun, who suddenly appeared behind Ma San'er, snatched the goblet in Ma San'er's hand and took it into his hand: "You can make a price." ”
Ma San'er was shocked, after all, it was the person who appeared behind him, and he didn't know the rules, if he accidentally scared him and broke these treasures, wouldn't it be a cheat! Just when Ma San'er turned his head to scold, Xu Yun smiled slightly, and almost squeezed out the urine of Ma San'er at that time.
My good girl, how can it be you! Ma San'er's face turned white.
"At least do business on a first-come, first-served basis, right?!" Seeing this, the guest wearing the hat was anxious: "I took a fancy to this thing first, of course you want to sell it to me!" I'll give 300,000! ”
When Ma San'er saw Xu Yun, he knew that there was nothing good, how could he still be in the mood to sell goods.
Xu Yun was not ambiguous, and said directly to the guest wearing the hat: "I will pay 600,000." ”
It's over...... Ma San's heart is called a bitter force, originally he still expected this Yuan Dynasty Jingdezhen colored porcelain goblet to sell for 500,000 to open the market, but now it is stirred by Xu Yun, there will definitely be no fun, but anyone who knows how to do it, I'm afraid it won't be given more than 500,000, right? After all, this thing has some flaws, although ordinary people can't see it, but as an antique expert, Ma San'er thinks that this thing is worth 500,000 at most.
Unexpectedly, under the persecution of Xu Yun, the guest wearing the hat stretched out his thumb and index finger and said to Ma San'er: "I will pay 800,000!" ”
Xu Yun sighed twice, and couldn't put it down, and returned the Jingdezhen colored porcelain goblet in his hand to Ma San'er: "It seems that this baby still doesn't belong to me." ”
Ma San'er didn't expect that he would be stirred up by Xu Yun, and this Jingdezhen colored porcelain goblet in the Yuan Dynasty was sold for 300,000 more than his estimated value! This is really good luck to pick up money early in the morning, Ma San'er didn't dare to say hello to Xu Yun, Xu Yun also knew that in case people said that he was a nurse, he didn't say anything more, just continued to wander around.
Ma San'er knew that since he was seen, he would definitely not be able to run away, so he obediently continued to do his business.
Soon it was six o'clock, and Xu Yun saw that the stalls in Panjiayuan Market were basically full, and the merchants who were a little later could only wait for other merchants to withdraw their stalls. Many people took a small flashlight to carefully study the items in the photo, and some people watched carefully for about half an hour, and began to bargain carelessly, and once the deal was made, they immediately put the baby in the cloth bag.
With the passage of time, the ghost market in Panjiayuan has been crowded with people and flooded. At about eight o'clock, the sky was already bright, the "ghost energy" was dissipated, and the ghost market was basically over. Although the ghost market is over, the liveliness of Panjiayuan is still unabated, all kinds of antique furniture, the four treasures of the study, coins, clothing, face masks, historical relics, ancient books and calligraphy and paintings are placed in the entire market, all kinds of antique transactions are still staged, and all kinds of sad and joyful stories are still happening.
Xu Yun walked straight to Ma San'er's shop, he had just made a fortune for him, this time I asked him something, I'm afraid it should be more smooth, right? (To be continued)
