Chapter 0042 Antique Market

The ghost market refers to the place where the 'inworld' is bought and sold, also known as the underworld market. In reality, it has other meanings. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a ghost market in Yanjing, which is well known in the antique collection world. Who knows that the mysterious place that Taobao will not tell others.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic of China, the 'ghost market' was extremely prosperous. At that time, the national fortune declined and the country was about to die, and the emperor could not be preserved. What's more, many nobles and rich people in the Qing court were ruined. After the family failed, they could not make a living. They could only survive by selling the family property left by their ancestors. But after all, this is a matter of losing their identity. When he was once prominent, how could he put it on the shelf and lose face?

Therefore, these 'nobles' were afraid of being recognized, so they took advantage of the half-dark light in the first half of the dawn, sneaked to the street with antiques, stood on the street and set up a stall with lanterns to sell, that is, dodged acquaintances and made a deal.

There are also some thieves, tomb robbers, who sell stolen things in the dark. Because there are unspeakable secrets, most of them can only be sold at a low price, so the rumor of good goods in the ghost market spread. It has also attracted many antiques who often pick up some cheap ones in the ghost market.

Because the light of the market before dawn is dim, the voices are mixed, and the figure of the treasure hunter shakes like a ghost. Good people call such an antique market a 'ghost market'.

Although there is no need to hide and hide in the ghost market now, it is also the tradition of opening in the early morning and dispersing at dawn.

Since ancient ghost market, it has its particularity and its mystery. There have been many unspoken rules in it since ancient times, and now it is inevitable that some unclean things are in the ghost market.

Of course, Lin Feng also knows the existence of the ghost market. This time, he went to the antique market, but he didn't expect that there was still a ghost market here in Tianhai. He thought there was a ghost market in Yanjing.

"Master, have there been any good things in the antique market recently?" Lin Feng is looking forward to the ghost market. There must be a lot of good things in it, but he doesn't know if he can be found by people who know the goods.

There are many characteristics of antiques that are difficult to identify, which can only be seen by experts. Of course, experts are also divided into real masters and low-level experts.

Nowadays, there are also many antique collectors entrepreneurs who don't know anything about antiques, but they have to pretend to understand. Such people are really tired to live.

"My name is Xie Wentong. You can call me Brother Tong." The taxi driver said enthusiastically, "Speaking of this antique, I don't understand. I heard from my friends that there has been a 'Mingyongle blue and white bouquet of lotus pattern plates' recently. The name is long enough. I don't know what it is.

"How much is that thing worth?" Lin Feng was slightly shocked in his heart. What Xie Wentong said was a good thing, but he didn't know the price of the antique market now. I had to ask loudly.

"I heard that it has been sold for 600,000 yuan." Xie Wentong said with an envious face. In his eyes, it was really lucky that that little thing could be sold at such a high price, and he was still thinking about why his ancestors didn't leave something good for himself.

"Ha, this thing is quite valuable." Lin Feng was very shocked in his heart, but on the surface he said that it was okay, and he couldn't buy this kind of thing. The things on the surface were all high prices.

This time he went to the antique market to pick up leaks. Those gadgets that have not been identified are his goal is these things. He only has 500 yuan. If he removes the fare, he will have 480 yuan left. It costs 20 yuan to go to the antique market.

"Brother, are you going to the antique market to try your luck?" Xie Wentong asked with a smile. Those who work as drivers like to ask about something.

"Brother Tong, just call me Lin Feng." Lin Feng said with a faint smile, "I also heard that there is such a place in Tianhai City, so I went to have a look."

"Well, I'll call you Lin Feng." Xie Wentong said with a smile.

Then the two talked about other things for a while, and Lin Feng got his own information and didn't talk about the antique market. He turned around and arrived at the destination this time. Lin Feng and Xie Wen announced the notice.

Xie Wentong was also a good person. Lin Feng gave him money and didn't want to say anything. He said that he knew him, and then gave Lin Feng a business card and drove away.

He took the business card given to him by Xie Wentong and smiled bitterly and came to Tianhai City from his hometown. It seemed that he had not spent a penny. He ate, drank and lived at Li Qian's place. He gritted his teeth and took a taxi once, and even met a driver like Xie Wentong. It can only be said that he was a little lucky.

Put away the business card given to him by Xie Wentong. He did not walk directly into the treasure house, because there were hundreds of thousands of antiques in it, and now he has no money to play at all. Turning to the other side of the treasure house, there was a small street full of antique sellers with stalls.

Some are eager to sell ancestral antiques with money, some are citizens who are eager to sell them, and there are all kinds of small vendors who resell antiques. The things inside are all a hodgepodge and sell everything. There is no shortage of good things, which depends on whether you have vision or not.

"Ancestral jade pendant, deal with it at a low price."

"There is a Xiaoyao fan used by Xiaoyao King in the Ming Dynasty. Come and have a look."

"The cigarette pot at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic of China is exquisite."

"A calligraphy and painting, a famous painter..."

As soon as you enter here, there are shouts everywhere, people's voices are messy and noisy, and there are all kinds of things for sale, and there are many imitations. Lin Feng can be said to be proficient in antiques. The books in his family all record what the antiques of that era were like and what their characteristics were. Although he has not practiced it, he can still see which are authentic and which are imitations.

And there are also many antiques in his house, which are many treasures in the world, but he smashed a lot when he was a child, and now I feel a little sad when I think about it.

If it weren't for the rush, he would have brought out a few small things from home to sell, but he didn't know if he knew the goods, but now it's better not to touch those things.

Although the Lin family is not recorded in the Legend of the Family of his family, his intuition tells him that his family must have been not small in the past, and what kind of disaster he may have encountered. Only then did the family die, and he escaped from the original family and fled to the distant Lingshu Village to take refuge.

Those antiques are sold. If something is found by someone with an intention, it will be a disaster. He doesn't want anything to happen to his family, let alone something happen to him.

Lin Feng is much more mature now. Compared with his previous impulse, he has indeed grown up. There are so many things to think about. Just like now he thinks of fighting with Li Toad, it's really naive.
