Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 270: Confrontation

Now that the decision was made, several people settled down.

Zhou Ying called people directly.

Wang Qingsong saw this and tried to dissuade him: "The Chinese New Year is tomorrow. Isn't it inappropriate to talk about this now? Why don't we wait until the Chinese New Year?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ying said nonchalantly: "It's okay! After all, the Chinese New Year is just a formality! Many of our generation are only children, and we actually have very few friends."

Wang Qingsong didn't say anything after hearing this.

Waiting there quietly.

After a while, after finishing the phone call, Zhou Ying smiled and said: "She's at home! We'll go find her later. We haven't seen her for a long time. Hey..."

Finally sighed.

Wang Qingsong heard that that person might have a story.

Then he asked casually: "Why are you sighing? Also, your classmate knows this, why didn't I listen to you before!"

Zhou Ying shrugged and smiled: "How should I put it? I didn't think of it at the time, and the situation was a bit special..."

Then I explained...

After hearing this, Wang Qingsong understood.

The other party’s name is Wang Yafeng.

The mother was an outcast.

Wang Yafeng's grandfather used to be an educated youth, but unlike Zhou Ying's grandmother, he did not stay in the local area.

But I got married in the commune.

Later, when a large number of educated youths returned to the city, Wang Yafeng's mother and grandmother returned to the city, leaving behind them.

After returning, he got married and had children not long after.

Grandpa Wang Yafeng has a fierce wife at home, so naturally he doesn't know how to recognize his former family, and he doesn't dare to recognize her.

No, the old man had left his wife and his health was going to be bad.

I don’t know if my conscience noticed it or what happened!
When he was dying, he still left some belongings to his daughter.

Outside the third ring road, there is a house of more than 40 square meters in the fourth ring road, and a stall of Panjiayuan.

The reason for this stall.

It’s because of Grandpa Wang Yafeng’s family.

The other party's previous three generations had been working in a pawn shop as a salary.

When antiques became popular after the re-opening, Wang Yafeng’s grandfather and great-grandfather who was still alive at the time naturally got involved.

Made a lot of money.

After Wang Qingsong heard this, he was confused: "You don't have a good relationship?"

Zhou Ying shook her head: "That's not true. Yafeng and I have always had a good relationship. We were in the same class from elementary school to high school."

After a pause, he continued: "It's just that her dad is hard to talk to... In the past few years, when I was in school, I had time and she was busy. When she had time, I had something to do. As time went by, no one contacted me. too much."

After Wang Qingsong listened, he understood.

It feels like there is still something going on!
It's just that Zhou Ying doesn't want to say it.

After thinking about it for a moment, he smiled and said, "You said her father is hard to talk to, so why should we go there? Forget it."

"It's okay! We've already made an appointment, and I took you to find her just to ask about the situation, not to ask her to help you.

After all, her father has been in this business for several years. She didn't pass the college entrance examination and didn't go to a technical school. She still followed behind to help, at least she knew something. "

Wang Qingsong thought for a while and finally nodded.

You might as well go take a look!
Seeing that it was still early, Zhou Ying smiled and said, "Let's go for a walk and we'll go there!"

After saying that, he smiled and stretched out his hand.

Although something embarrassing had just happened, it was just an accident after all.

She didn't mind too much.

As for Wang Qingsong, who had taken advantage of him, he seemed a little embarrassed as if he had been wronged, which made Zhou Ying feel dumbfounded.

The previous embarrassment also dissipated a lot.

I just think Wang Qingsong is quite fun.

After strolling around for a while, a few people left the venue and got on the bus to Panjiayuan.

Zhou Ying was always there to contact each other on the way.

The car stopped at the door of Panjiayuan.

Wang Qingsong took a look. He had been here last time, so naturally he wouldn't be confused!
"Let's go! She's in the store!"

Zhou Ying waved, shouted at the two of them, and hurried inside.

At this time, Panjiayuan is no longer like the last time I came here. Although it is not crowded, there are still a lot of people.

He was dazzled by the dazzling array of handicrafts.

Although the cultural relics store there has quite a lot of stuff, it's still not as impactful as here.

Those who bargain, inquire, and many do live broadcasts.

Even though the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is still very lively.

While walking and asking for the address, Zhou Ying said: "The epidemic has left us with very few people. In the past, people couldn't even squeeze in here. It was like visiting an old street."

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong nodded.

Looking at the various old things on the floor, he frowned.

I got this thing myself, can I sell it?

And the price is super cheap.

After a while, Zhou Ying took him to a shop called Boguzhai.

There are far fewer people here.

There was only one girl sitting there.

He has an oval face and a high nose. He is wearing a simple white down jacket and has long, silky hair hanging on his shoulders.

Wearing light makeup.

I'm scrolling through my phone right there!

"Yafeng!"

After Zhou Ying came in, she smiled and said hello.

"Zhou Ying!"

The other party stood up happily when he saw her.

"Sister Feng!"

Zhou Xin smiled and said hello from the side.

Wang Yafeng looked at her with a smile and said, "Oh, the little girl has grown so big."

Then he looked at Wang Qingsong and said with a smile: "This is your friend!"

"Hey, yes, Wang Qingsong, we have the same name."

Zhou Ying was there to introduce.

Wang Yafeng greeted with a smile: "Hello, Wang Yafeng, Zhou Ying and I have played together since we were children. Her friends are my friends."

Wang Qingsong responded with a smile: "Hello!"

"Sit down quickly! The place is a bit small!"

The other party got two small stools for a few people to sit on.

The place is indeed not big, only more than twenty square meters, and there are many things placed on the ancient shelves on both sides.

There are also some jade stones on the counter.

Seems very crowded.

After a few people sat down, Zhou Ying said with a smile: "When did you set up a facade? Isn't it at the stall?"

Wang Yafeng poured water for several people while pretending to complain: "Look, how long has it been since you came?"

"There's no way! I don't even dare to come here during the epidemic."

Zhou Ying also explained with a smile.

Indeed, in the past few years due to the epidemic, I have rarely gone to crowded places. I always come back soon after I go.

"Drink water!"

Wang Yafeng handed the water to several people.

Wang Qingsong and others took it over, thanked them, and sat there quietly.

The water delivery is over.

Wang Yafeng then smiled at Zhou Ying and said: "My dad is running the stall. It is a storefront he rented. Later, he found that the business was not as good as the stall, so he left it to me. I am watching over it for him!"

Zhou Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

Luckily her dad wasn't here.

Zhou Ying smiled when she heard this: "We haven't seen each other for a few years, right?"

Wang Yafeng nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's been several years. I asked you to come to play before, but you didn't come!"

"I'm here and you can't leave. Why am I here! I'm not interested in these things..."

The two chatted there for a while.

After a while, Zhou Ying looked around and then asked: "How is the business here? Is it easy to do?"

Wang Yafeng sighed: "It's easy to do something! Now that it's all transparent, it's hard to do."

Not straightforward.

This means that everyone knows that the products here are all handicrafts, and everyone who comes here has a "picking up" mentality.

Zhou Ying probably understood.

Panjiayuan was known as the largest arts and crafts wholesale center in the country back then, but it really didn’t have much.

Everyone who comes to play understands this.

99% of them are not old stuff.

But some people can’t help but think they can find the 1% genuine product.

What if you encounter it!

"Your friend wants to do this?"

Wang Yafeng looked at Zhou Ying and asked with a smile, and then he got to the point.

Then he looked at Wang Qingsong.

Zhou Ying also looked over and said with a smile: "Yeah, he wants to try it, but he doesn't understand anything. I just wanted to come over and ask you. At least you know something. Others won't tell me the truth. ah!"

Wang Yafeng smiled and complained: "Look, if you find me when something happens, you won't come to play with me. That's all I'm used for!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ying rolled her eyes: "That's what you said, then if I ask you to come out to play, you won't be able to come out! You only know how to make money!"

The two exchanged pleasantries there.

Wang Yafeng smiled, looked at Wang Qingsong, and hesitated for a moment: "You... do you want to do it yourself, or do the adults in the family do it?"

It's not surprising at all that people come here to do business.

There are more than 5,000 merchants here.

Most of them are stalls, which attract countless people.

only……

Is this too young?
Wang Qingsong said directly: "I'm just asking, I'm not sure yet! But if I want to do it, I'll do it myself."

Hearing this, Wang Yafeng smiled: "Do you have a channel for handicrafts? How much money are you going to invest in it? It's hard to say in this business. If you are lucky, you can make money, but if you are not, you will lose money."

She thought Wang Qingsong was bringing some handicrafts to sell.

Almost all here.

Zhou Ying knew Wang Qingsong's situation, so she asked for him: "How much is your stall fee? What sells? Also, BJ Antique City, Tianya, etc., is the business there good? How much rent do they have there? about how much?"

Upon seeing this, Wang Yafeng smiled and said, "It depends on the situation."

"If the stalls in Panjiayuan are rented on a long-term basis, the monthly stall fee is about one thousand to three thousand depending on the size. If you can't rent a long-term rental, the monthly fee is fifty to one hundred. If you are lucky, you can sell some small things. Make money.

There are people out there who can open the Buddha's Heart Fruit and earn a lot of money in a day. "

It didn’t say the cost, nor how much it could earn, but it was a lot of money anyway.

Zhou Ying nodded: "I just looked at it. The small one costs 180 yuan, and the expensive one costs 500 to 600 yuan. By the way, how much does it cost?"

Wang Yafeng smiled when he heard this: "Not necessarily, it depends on the size. Small ones are cheaper, cost a few yuan, and large ones with good quality cost dozens of yuan! Don't say it was me who said that! Otherwise, it won't offend people. Well!" Zhou Ying clicked her tongue.

That’s a lot of money to make.

The booth fee is not as high as expected.

"What about the Antique City?"

"It's more expensive over there in the Antique City. The rent on the third floor is ten yuan upwards, which is the price of one square meter per day! For my twenty-square-meter house, it costs six thousand yuan a month there. . For this price, it can only be found in the corner of the third floor.

Among the shops in the lobby on the first floor, I remember one was 45 square meters, and theirs was about 160 square meters, and the annual rent was million. "

"hiss!"

Zhou Ying also took a breath when she heard the price.

This is renting, not buying!
"Then how do you make money?"

"Hey, they all have their own ways!"

Wang Yafeng said nonchalantly.

Zhou Ying heard this and looked at Wang Qingsong, asking what do you think. ?
Wang Qingsong looked at the eyes of several people, thought for a while and said: "Well... if it is a real antique, where can it be sold?"

"What antiques! That must be an antique city! There are quite a lot of old things there, and they are more formal. About 20% of them are old things.

I won’t say much more here. Anyway, you newcomers are here to pay tuition! Not to mention you, even the veterans and even the masters can't figure it out clearly. "

Wang Yafeng explained with a smile.

Then he asked: "You don't want to sell real antiques, do you?"

After hearing this, Wang Qingsong was confused: "Are there so many fakes?"

"Hey, don't go and say it's a fake! There are rules for these antiques, so how can you say the porcelain bottle is fake! It's not a bottle? It's just that it may not be old enough, so you can't say it's fake. You have to say whether you are old enough or not!”

Wang Yafeng explained, and then said: "But that's right! People nowadays don't care about these anymore. Except for the old ones, other high imitations, fakes, etc. are all fakes to you..."

Wang Qingsong nodded after hearing this.

I feel like it’s okay to open one.

It’s not okay to put those things in your own space and have no use.

It’s just that the prices in that store are too high.

Remembering that some people had said before that this one couldn't be sold and that one would be sentenced, he still asked.

"Um... I just checked the antique trade, and it seems that many things cannot be traded... How can I tell this?"

He did watch it in the car just now.

There was also the Cultural Relics Law, but it was written so that he could understand it clearly.

But I don’t know exactly what items are not allowed to be traded.

Anyway, he knows some, such as bronzes, parts of wild protected animals such as ivory, etc.
There are still many types.

Wang Yafeng pondered for a moment and said: "You shouldn't have to think about this. As long as you don't dig graves, steal, or buy and sell things that are also precious channels, it won't be a big problem... For details, you can check the Cultural Relics Protection Law, which is there."

In her opinion, the other party couldn't get any antiques.

Apart from these few things, you basically can’t touch the real thing.

Zhou Ying heard this and muttered: "Hey, Yafeng, let me ask you a question! Aren't these antiques manufactured by people? The price is so high. I heard it is to avoid taxes!!"

When Wang Yafeng heard this, he smiled and said, "This is really hard to say."

"The situation you mentioned must exist, and I know it, but the specific process is not very clear. But if you want to say that antiques are all hype, they are not all..."

"Let me give you an example. There are two national treasures in the Palace Museum, the Erxi Tie, the Boyuan Tie and the Mid-Autumn Tie. They were transported to Hong Kong Island when they were just liberated. Later, the state sent people to buy them back. .

It was HK$48 at that time.

You have to know that it was 1951, and the salary in Hong Kong at that time was only 48 yuan a month. 400 yuan was equivalent to a person's salary for years. This was purchased by the state.

Just check it out and you will know. Let’s not talk about this. Let’s just say that before liberation, people have loved collecting since ancient times.

Let’s not talk about it. During the Republic of China, there were many people who loved collecting, and they could easily earn thousands of dollars. At that time, ordinary people could earn more than ten dollars a month, which was pretty good. How did those people avoid paying taxes?

Also, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, so many antiques were auctioned in foreign auction houses, and many wealthy people in China auctioned them back and donated them to the country.

Isn’t that what the twelve zodiac animal heads are?

There’s more!
In 2003, Ma Weidu bought the red sandalwood and gold-painted seven-story pagoda from Sotheby's 30th anniversary auction in Hong Kong for NT$350 million and put it on display in his museum.

There are too many of these.

If you say it's all hype, it doesn't count.

So this matter is unclear. "

After listening to this, Zhou Ying took her mobile phone and searched for "Bo Yuan Tie", and then she was surprised: "It's really true!"

Then he raised his head and exclaimed: "Yafeng, you really know a lot!"

Wang Yafeng laughed when he heard this and said: "There is nothing I can do. I couldn't pass the college entrance examination, and my dad tied me up at home and refused to leave. What can I do? There are so many antique dealers here, and they talk about this every day. Listen to it. My ears are calloused.”

At this point, someone came to the door, and Wang Yafeng didn't stand up.

It wasn't until the other party left that she continued: "This industry is too deep. I've been here for a few years and only listened to stories, but I don't even know anything about it."

Then several people chatted there for a long time.

Wang Qingsong also knew a lot of things.

Zhou Ying looked at Wang Qingsong.

Wang Qingsong thought for a while and finally said: "This... let's see about it then!"

At this time, he already had some ideas.

Why do you have to sell it?
That’s not to say it can’t be sold!
Wang Yafeng just said a lot. In fact, most of the people who buy and sell antiques are the kind of things that existed in large quantities in the past.

For example, porcelain from the Qianlong period was a hot item.

High prices indeed are sky high.

But most of them are ordinary products that cost thousands or even tens of thousands.

Only very wealthy collectors have many rare items.

Zhou Ying nodded upon seeing this.

Just as he was about to speak, the phone rang.

Wang Yafeng picked up the phone, answered it, and said a few words.

Said: "Sorry, I went to the stall, my dad asked me to deliver something!"

Seeing this, Zhou Ying joked: "Look, you won't have time when I'm here. Okay, let's go back. I'll come play with you next time if something happens."

After hearing this, Wang Yafeng did not force it.

He smiled and said, "You know how to mess around. Okay, I won't tell you anymore. My dad is waiting for something, and I'll get it first."

Then I searched there.

"Okay, let's go first!"

After saying hello, Zhou Ying led the two of them out of the store.

After coming out, he looked at Wang Qingsong: "You heard it too! The water in this business is very deep, are you sure you want to do it?"

Wang Qingsong nodded.

"Well, let's open one first and then talk about it!"

Opening a shop was just his first idea.

It’s just that I’m embarrassed to talk about other ideas.

Zhou Ying nodded: "Okay, it's getting late, we have to go back. Do you want to leave? If so, let's go together!"

"Let's go back together!"

Here he will wait for a chance to visit again!
But I wasn't in such a hurry when I walked back. Several people looked at the stalls along the way curiously.

"Hey, this looks good!"

Zhou Xin looked curiously at a stall, saw something, and squatted down to take a look.

Panjiayuan is not only filled with antiques, but also has many strange and weird things.

Not to mention Wang Qingsong, even people like Zhou Ying were dazzled.

What Zhou Xin saw at this time was a porcelain doll. The style was very exquisite and suitable for use as an ornament.

Zhou Ying smiled.

Just about to speak.

I heard an "ah" sound and the sound of broken porcelain.

Zhou Xin was stunned.

He looked at the table where he had taken his things, and then at the ground, blankly.

I seem……

Should, maybe, probably, probably...

You haven't touched this thing?

But the things and porcelain she just took were placed on a small table, and she didn't know whether she touched them or not.

No, I definitely didn’t touch it!

There is a distance!

"Hey, why are you so careless! My bright blue and white flowers!"

The person looking at the stall was an uncle in his fifties, who looked distressed.

Zhou Xin was angry: "In what age are you still playing porcelain?"

She's not stupid!

The other party looked aggrieved: "Why am I the one who got into trouble? I couldn't even move where I was sitting! Why are you so unreasonable, little girl?"

Seeing this, Zhou Ying went over and pulled her sister behind.

I came over and looked at the scene, and then looked around.

Especially after looking at it at the table, there really is no big problem.

Finally, I picked up the blue and white porcelain incense burner and looked at it carefully.

The crack is not old but obviously new. The most important thing is that the sound just now was too obvious.

He didn’t rush to contact the person, but asked: “How much does this cost?”

"This is the blue and white porcelain of the famous Chenghua year. The minimum price is 160,000 yuan. You can ask nearby!"

At this time, passers-by kept away from each other, fearing that they might be contaminated. You must know that there is no way to tell the specific price of many things here.

Wang Qingsong also squatted on the ground and looked at it, flipping through it.

The porcelain is about twenty centimeters in diameter and about the same height. It is decorated with blue and white patterns.

The bottom reads: Ming Dynasty Chenghua Year System, in a few small characters.

After touching it, he felt something was wrong.

I seem to have felt this feeling somewhere before.

Because the porcelain body feels almost indifferent to the touch, but the bottom has a lot of energy.

When Zhou Ying heard this, it was naturally impossible for him to lose so much money.

He took out his mobile phone and said: "I also have friends here. Don't think about it. If it doesn't work, I will call the police..."

The other party heard this and said, "If you don't call the police, I will call the police! This is all under surveillance, so I have nothing to fear."

As he spoke, he pointed to the camera in the corner not far away.

Zhou Ying took a quick look and knew that this surveillance system must be working, plus the boss's expression was not false at all.

My heart suddenly sank.

Things are probably up in the air today.

But she still made the call.

"Hey, Yufeng, come here, something happened here. In..."

After that, it’s time to find the address.

The boss reported it directly: "Stall No. 1, District 246."

Seeing this, Zhou Ying repeated it again before hanging up the phone.

After looking at the untouched porcelain on the ground, he picked up his cell phone and called the police.

After all, it’s hundreds of thousands!

How much can I pay back with another counteroffer?
The family is short of money!
