Chapter 150 A Set of Old Golden Needles

After finishing speaking, Wu Ke opened the car door, sat in the driving seat, and said loudly: "Brother, get in the car, there might be a surprise waiting for you there."

Zhang Chi looked at Wu Ke, opened the door and got into the car.Drive by Wu Ke, head towards West Wood Street.

Sitting in the car, Zhang Chi asked seriously: "Wu Ke, what are we going to West Wood Street for? If you can't tell me why, I still have a lot of things to do, and I can't afford to waste time. "

Zhang Chi does have a few things going on.

The relevant procedures of Shennongtang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. have been completed, and now everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed.As soon as the construction of the factory area is completed, the industrialized production of "Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid" and "Yixin Buqi Pills" can begin immediately.

Of course, we should also pay attention to the movements of Su Baolin and his son.

Having dug such a big hole, Su Baolin and his son have already jumped into it. Next, we have to watch a good show and see how Su Baolin and his son end up.

While driving, Wu Ke said: "Brother, I see that you are practicing acupuncture, and golden needles are the best. I once saw a pair of things in an antique shop on West Wood Street. It might be golden needles. I will show you Go and have a look."

Possibly golden needles?
Even Wu Ke himself didn't dare to be 100% sure whether it was the golden needle.Because it looks like a gold needle, but it's not like it at all.

Wu Ke gave a general description of the set of "golden needles" he saw, and then said: "I think it looks like ancient golden needles, but I'm not an expert, so I'm not sure. You can go and have a look and you'll know."

Zhang Chi smiled happily.

I am more happy in my heart.After listening to Wu Ke's description just now, Zhang Chi is seven or eight percent sure that it is a set of golden needles, and it may be a set of golden needles of a certain age.

Old objects are hard to find, and golden needles with a certain history are even more rare to come across.

There are many shapes of golden needles in ancient times, each of which has its unique use.Its needle types are similar to modern needle knives, triangular needles, massage sticks, etc., and there are also some other needle types.

Ancient needles were first seen in the nine needles recorded in the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, which are nine different needles, and the acupuncture needles used in modern times belong to the filiform needles.

The silver needles used in modern times belong to the filiform needles, which are just one of the ancient acupuncture needles. In fact, besides the filiform needles, there are many other types of needles.

The "nine needles for life extension" require the use of all filiform needles, and no other types of needles have been used for the time being. Perhaps, in the pages at the back of the world book, some acupuncture methods may appear again, and may be used in addition to Needle types other than filiform needles.

Zhang Chi speculates that the set of gold needles that Wu Ke saw on Ximutou Street may have been hundreds of years ago. In addition to the filiform needles, there are other types of needles, so it looks a little different from modern acupuncture needles. , so Wu Ke was not sure.

In that set of gold needles, apart from the filiform needles, some looked like needle knives, Mitsubishi needles, and some even looked like small sticks.

"Wu Ke, that may really be a set of golden needles handed down from ancient times. If it is true, then you have made a great contribution."

After learning the "Nine Needles for Extending Life", what Zhang Chi needs most is a set of golden needles, preferably the golden needles that were used by famous ancient doctors and passed down.

Wu Ke drove to the outside of Ximutou Street.

Whether it is West Wood Street or East Wood Street, they are all pedestrian streets, and cars are not allowed to enter.The two parked their cars in an underground parking lot not far from the street, and then walked into Dongmu Street.

This is indeed the antique street in Nanjiang City, and it has a good reputation in several provinces in the south.

On both sides of the street are shops, almost all of which are decorated with antiques, which look antique.In addition to shops, there are many street stalls.

Spread a doily, place some things, a small bench, and wait for customers to come to your door.Experts know that 99% of the items on this street stall are fake, but the price is also cheap. If you can buy real goods at a low price on the street stall, it is a scam.

Wu Ke has been to Dongmutou Street many times, and he seems to be very familiar with this street. He basically ignored the yelling of the hawkers who set up street stalls, and walked straight in with Zhang Chi.

Wanbaolou Antiques!
This is an antique shop that seems to have a certain scale and a business area that is not too small.Like other antique shops, it has a strong antique atmosphere.

"Brother Chi, this is the store, let's go in and take a look."

Wu Ke pointed to this antique shop.Zhang Chi nodded, and looked up for a while. The big plaque of "Wanbaolou Antiques" hanging in this store is very large.

Let's go in and have a look. I hope that the set of golden needles that Wu Ke mentioned is still there and has not been bought.

Zhang Chi walked in front, Wu Ke followed, and the two entered the antique shop one after the other.

The store is very large, with all kinds of antiques and calligraphy and paintings.

On the glass counters or shelves, there are many antiques, including porcelain, bronzes, and many others that Zhang Chi cannot name.

There are also many calligraphy and paintings, some of which are framed and hung on the walls. There are landscape paintings, figure paintings, freehand brushwork paintings, and meticulous paintings.

But basically they are all old paintings, which may be as little as one or two hundred years old, and as many as thousands of years old. I just don't know whether these paintings are real or fake.

Zhang Chi couldn't understand anyway.

This time, I came here for the set of gold needles that Wu Ke saw. It was placed in the glass counter before, and I could see this set of gold needles through the glass.

Wu Ke remembered which counter it was placed in, checked it a bit, and then led Zhang Chi to the front of the counter.

Through the glass, I could see the things inside the counter clearly, they were basically miscellaneous items of different sizes, but I just didn't see the set of gold needles.

Wu Ke's face changed slightly.

Zhang Chi asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Wu Ke looked anxious, "I remember very clearly that it was placed in this counter some time ago, but, but, but it seems that I didn't see it."

no yet?

Was it bought by someone else?
Zhang Chi's heart was also suspended, and he rushed towards the set of gold needles excitedly, but he was in vain and was bought by others first, which would be a pity.

Zhang Chi looked at it seriously, hoping that its placement had changed, and it was placed somewhere else in the counter.

The two of them looked at the counter carefully and carefully, and even looked at the two counters next to it.

No.

I didn't see the set of golden needles that Wu Ke mentioned at all.

Immediately, Zhang Chi's face showed regret, and he felt very regretful in his heart. He came a step late, and the good things might have been bought away.

There were several shop assistants in Wanbao Building. They probably noticed that Zhang Chi and Wu Ke seemed to be looking for something, and one of the shop assistants came over.

"Two, do you need any help?"

"We are one of the largest antique shops on West Wood Street. We have a complete range of items, from bronzes from the Spring and Autumn Period to famous paintings from the Song and Tang Dynasties, to porcelains from the Ming and Qing Dynasties..."

The clerk gave a detailed introduction to Wanbaolou Antique Store, and said enthusiastically, "Just tell me what you two need, and I will recommend and introduce it to you conveniently."

Zhang Chi nodded, and said truthfully, "My brother saw a set of gold needles in your store some time ago, but it's not in this counter now. Has it been bought?"

Well this...

The clerk hesitated for a while, not sure whether the set was bought, he said: "You two wait a moment, I will ask the boss."

Soon, Deng Shunguo, the owner of Wanbaolou Antiques, came over. He was wearing cloth shoes, a double-breasted coat, and holding a folding fan in his hand. He looked like a person in the antique industry.

"Hello, my humble servant, Wanbaolou Deng Shunguo."

He clapped his hands and introduced himself.

Zhang Chi also introduced himself: "My surname is Zhang, and this is my brother. The two of us heard that your store has a set of gold needles, so we came here to have a look."

"Oh."

Deng Shunguo invited Zhang Chi and Wu Ke to sit down next to him, and ordered some tea to be brought over. Then, after pondering for a while, he said slowly, "Mr. Zhang, what happened is very unfortunate."

Hearing this, Zhang Chi's heart sank slightly, and he was basically sure that the set of gold needles had probably been bought by someone else.

If so, that would be a pity.

After learning the "nine needles for life extension", Zhang Chi especially needs a set of golden needles, especially a set of golden needles with a certain history and age.

"Boss Deng, do you mean that set of golden needles has been bought?"

Deng Shunguo said: "That's not true, it's just that there is an old customer who has taken his fancy and will come to take it away in a few days."

Zhang Chi asked, "Has he placed a deposit yet?"

If you just fancy it and didn't make a deposit, then there is still room for maneuver, maybe you can buy that set of gold needles.

Deng Shunguo replied: "Then the deposit hasn't been made yet."

No down payment!
A strong hope rose in Zhang Chi's heart in an instant, and he asked tentatively: "Boss Deng, can you show me that set of golden needles, and if I am satisfied, can you sell it to me?"

Originally, I thought that Deng Shunhui would show embarrassment, or at least hesitate, but unexpectedly, he was very straightforward, and agreed immediately: "Let me take a look, there is no problem at all."

After finishing speaking, he shouted to a clerk not far away: "Xiao Li, go upstairs and get the set of gold needles in the No. 2 cabinet."

A clerk from Wanbao Building immediately went upstairs.

At this time, Zhang Chi had already noticed that there was a wooden staircase leading to the second floor. There should be another floor above it, but it was closed to the public and was mainly used to store some antique calligraphy and paintings.

Not long after, Xiao Li came down with something in his hand.

A cylindrical object about [-] to [-] centimeters long and about the size of a knife handle, Zhang Chi looked at the shape, and further confirmed that this should be a whole set of gold needles.

Ancient gold needles are usually packed in a tape box.The belt box is generally made of cotton cloth or leather.After the gold needle is installed, the tape box can be rolled up to become a cylinder, and then there are two ropes or straps to bind it to prevent the tape box from loosening.

Things are brought here.

Deng Shunguo took it over, under the eyes of Zhang Chi and Wu Ke, he first untied the binding rope, and then unfolded the tape box on the coffee table.

Suddenly, Zhang Chi saw what was in the box...
.........

That's all for today's update, thank you all.
