Chapter 96

Soon after, the two took a ride to the Shuangxianqiao Antique Market. In fact, this place is located between Qingyang Palace and Du Fu Thatched Cottage, echoing the street of Shuzhong Museum.

However, in the past few days, the two of them focused on playing and were very restrained. They could endure the temptation and did not come over. Now, like gold diggers with no worries, they rushed into this bustling city with a bit of fanaticism.

In a lively market.

The entire antique market covers an area of ​​more than 20,000 square meters. The main building has three floors, divided into five areas including antiques, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, industrial products, Ming and Qing furniture, and more than 1,000 large and small shops.

As the largest antique art city in Southwest China, you can buy all imaginable antique items in Shuangxianqiao: jewelry and jades, four treasures of the study, epigraphy, calligraphy and painting, ancient books, ancient and modern furniture, weaving art, hand-embroidered batik, purple sand and rare stones,

Ebony root carving... everything can be said to be all-inclusive and complete.

Now, it is only around nine o'clock in the morning, and there is already an endless stream of treasure hunters coming to the antique market. Groups of collectors and tourists are looking at ancient utensils, calligraphy and paintings by famous artists, and small stalls.

Stop beforehand. Either look down at the items, or bargain directly with the stall owner.

The lively scene allows people to appreciate the true charm of antiques.

Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were walking in the antique market. They saw the gurgling river flowing leisurely under the bridge, with weeping willows on both sides. The antique market built along the river was covered with red glazed tiles at various heights.

The winding corridor cleverly integrates modern architecture and Sichuan style, reflecting the ancient and modern.

Wang Guan walked among them, feeling dazzled for a while, and slowly, he felt like he was disoriented. At the same time, because there were so many antique stalls and shops, it was so complicated that he didn’t know how to choose or where to start.

Already.

After walking for a while, Wang Guan stopped and turned around and said, "You have been here before. Wherever you are going now, you can lead the way."

"Okay, come with me." Yu Feibai rubbed his hands and said, "Let's go."

Wang Guan followed and said: "By the way, Uncle De told me a few days ago that he has a friend who opened an antique shop here. Let's go and visit him in a while."

"No problem." Yu Feibai nodded.

Anyway, he plans to stay in the antique market for the rest of the time.

After a while, when he saw Yu Feibai leading him around the busy antique market, Wang Guan couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking for?"

"That antique shop caught my eye at the beginning." Yu Feibai said sheepishly, "However, it's been a long time and I don't remember the specific location."

"Well……"

Wang Guan was speechless. He didn't expect that Yu Feibai had such a "grudge-holding" side.

"Yongfa, Yongfa... found it, it's here."

Suddenly, Yu Feibai was in high spirits and said with a chuckle: "Back then, I bought a piece of porcelain here. The shop owner said it was from the Ming Dynasty. I took it back and asked Uncle De to identify it, and then I found out that it was an imitation from the Republic of China. It's okay to be deceived.

I was laughed at by others for a long time and became a stain in my life."

"Is it that serious?" Wang Guan shook his head and said something fair: "It's normal to buy the wrong thing and date it from the wrong year. Besides, maybe the shop owner also made a mistake and didn't know that the thing was a replica of the Republic of China.

"

"I tolerate being laughed at. It's not like I haven't been punched in the eyes anyway."

Yu Feibai gritted his teeth and said: "But because of this, the old man actually listened to the slander and cut off my source of funds. He made me live in poverty for two years, two full years. Do you know that I saw many good things?

Isn’t it such a painful feeling to have it hanging in front of your eyes but not being able to buy it?”

"I think this is not bad." Wang Guan said with a smile: "At least, your appreciation ability has greatly improved now, and you have learned persistence and restraint. It is a blessing in disguise."

"snort."

Yu Feibai cracked his knuckles and said, "No matter what, today, I must avenge my shame."

Noticing the strange looks from others, Wang Guan quickly advised in a low voice: "Avenge the shame, don't make too much noise, lest people think we are here to seek revenge or steal things, call the police."

"What do they look like? Have you ever seen such a handsome robber?" Yu Feibai blushed and quickly reached out to pull Wang Guan and hurried into the antique shop.

As soon as he entered, Wang Guan glanced around and found that the store was actually quite large, with at least thirty or forty square meters of space, and several rows of glass counters and wooden shelves.

In the entire antique store, various items are relatively complete, including jade, ceramics, calligraphy and painting, and miscellaneous ornaments. They are specially classified and placed neatly and orderly on the counter, making it clear at a glance.

At the same time, Wang Guan also noticed that the location of this store is good. It is right next to a crossroad. People who come to visit the antique market always pass by here. Therefore, relatively speaking, the store's business is relatively prosperous.

At least, Wang Guan saw that besides himself and Yu Feibai, there were two or three customers in the store selecting antiques.

A middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper and two young shop assistants were entertaining them warmly and explaining patiently. For a moment, they could no longer take care of Wang Guan and Yu Feibai.

"Okay, how are you going to avenge your shame now?" Wang Guanqing said with a smile. The antique shop is not small, and the owner is open for business. He must have some discernment. There is no way that there are so many things to miss.

Besides, not to mention Yu Feibai's appreciation ability, even if there are leaks in this antique shop, it will take a lot of time and energy to find the missing fish among these thousands of antiques.

Yu Feibai thought about it and understood this truth, and suddenly hesitated.

At this moment, a clerk met a customer, walked over quickly, and said with a smile on his face: "Welcome, you two. I wonder what antiques you have chosen?"

"Still watching..." Wang Guan said casually.

"Then what are your intentions?"

The clerk introduced enthusiastically: "We have jade, ceramics, calligraphy and painting..."

"No rush, let's take a look first." Wang Guan said with a smile.

"Okay, you two, just take a look and call me if you need anything." The clerk said, just as a few more customers walked in, he hurriedly went up to greet them.

At this time, Wang Guan asked softly: "How is it? Have you thought about it? What are you going to do?"

"Forget it." Yu Feibai smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Actually, I also understand that the chance of avenging shame is very slim. Coming here now is just to make yourself give up."

"It's so pitiful, let's take a look together." Wang Guan said with a smile: "If it doesn't work, retreat decisively and try your luck elsewhere. You don't have to hang yourself on this tree."
