Chapter 22 Antique Market

In the afternoon, Tang Hao went to the medicinal materials market.

This time, he wanted to buy a lot of medicinal materials, with a total of about 30 kinds.

The ancient names recorded in "Shennong Jing" are all recorded. Until now, the names have changed a long time ago and are not easy to find. Moreover, some of them have long been extinct. After walking around for a few times, Tang Hao found more than twenty species.

Fortunately, there are all main medicines, but the only ones are the auxiliary medicines, which can be replaced by other medicinal materials.

He bought some medicinal materials for replacement, and then bought medicinal materials such as Ganoderma lucidum, which filled his backpack.

He rode a small three-wheeler and left the medicinal materials market, preparing to go back to Tangjia Village.

Next to the medicinal materials market is the antique street.

When I passed by, suddenly, I heard someone shouting, "Brother Tang!"

Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, so he turned around and saw a black car stopping not far away. Then the window rolled down and a head was poked out. It was Ma Jiuye.

"It's Master Jiu! What a coincidence!"

Tang Hao said.

"Yes! What a coincidence! Brother Tang, have you just come out of the medicinal materials market?" said Ma Jiuye.

"yes!"

Master Ma Jiu smiled, pondered for a moment, and said, "Brother Tang, it's rare to be such a coincidence. Do you want to have a long experience with me?"

Tang Hao was slightly stunned.

I wanted to refuse, but then I thought that the antique industry is quite mysterious and maybe it is quite interesting. There is no urgent matter anyway, so it doesn’t matter. It’s okay to go and have a look.

"Okay!" Tang Hao nodded and agreed.

Master Ma Jiu smiled and said, "Brother Tang, please follow me, it's not far away." After that, the car drove slowly and stopped next to the Antique Street.

Master Ma Jiu got out of the car, dressed in Tang suit, straight and looked energetic.

Then, the driver got out of the car and was a middle-aged man in his forties.

"This is a dog son, Ma Wenyuan, this one is the little brother Tang I mentioned before." Ma Jiuye introduced.

"It turns out to be Doctor Tang, I'm not respectful! I'm not respectful!"

Ma Wenyuan is also as elegant and literary as Ma Jiuye.

"I don't dare to be it, I don't dare to be it!" Tang Hao said hurriedly.

"Brother Tang, let's go!" Master Ma Jiu took the lead and walked, "There happened to be a trade fair today, and I'll take you to see it."

"Trade Fair? Ghost Market?"

Master Ma Jiu laughed, "No! You will know later."

Tang Hao stopped talking and followed Master Jiu.

Following the Antique Street, after a while, I arrived at a store. When I entered the store, someone came out. When I saw Master Jiu, I respectfully called out: "Master Jiu!"

Master Jiu nodded, walked forward, walked through a door, and entered inside.

There was a corridor inside, twists and turns. After walking for a while, I entered a hall.

The hall was a little dim, with tables placed around and stools placed in the middle. At this moment, many people sat there. When they saw Master Jiu coming in, they all got up and called out.

"Sit down!" Master Jiu waved his hand.

Seeing Tang Hao behind Master Jiu, someone smiled and said, "Oh! Master Jiu, have you brought the queen to practice?"

Master Jiu smiled and said, "No, this little brother is not from this industry, he just brought him a long experience."

The man said oh and withdrew his gaze.

"Sit down!"

Master Jiu took Tang Hao and sat down. He took out a pocket watch and looked at it. He said, "It's about to start."

After waiting for a while, a few more people came, all of whom were in Tang suits. The leader was a thin man in his fifties, with two beards and some stings.

He walked over and saw Master Jiu and shouted, "Oh! Master Jiu, here you are!"

As soon as he spoke, he showed the golden tooth in his mouth.

Master Jiu frowned, as if he had no good feelings for this person, and said coldly: "Shopkeeper Zhou!"

"Master Jiu, please give me some advice this time!"

Although the shopkeeper said this this week, there was no respect in his tone, but instead he was a bit joking.

Tang Hao also realized that these two people were probably against each other.

"Who is he?" Tang Hao asked Ma Wenyuan in a low voice.

"His surname is Zhou, nicknamed Daya, his store is an old rival to my family. He has been fighting for more than ten years." Ma Wenyuan said.

Tang Hao nodded suddenly.

After a while, suddenly, a light on the top of his head lit up. A group of people walked out of the inner hall, all of whom were wearing black clothes, holding something, covering it with black cloth, and placed it on the surrounding tables in turn.

"It's beginning!" said Master Jiu.

After the arrangement was made, the people uncovered the black cloth and exposed cultural relics, which were of various types, including pottery figurines, calligraphy and paintings, jade artifacts, etc.

Count the number, there are twenty-five pieces in total.

Some are quaint, and some are stained with some soil, like they are just unearthed.

"These things are collected by those who shovel the ground and are specially sold to us who run antique shops. Look at the people here, they are all the owners of major antique shops on the street."

Ma Wenyuan whispered.

Tang Hao was stunned, "What does shovel the ground?"

He did not lower his voice, and everyone heard it. It was not surprising that the antique shop owners knew that Tang Hao was not from the industry, and Zhou Daya glanced at him and smiled.

"Why is blind man from Xiong? I said, Master Jiu, you are not good at this young man!"

Master Jiu said expressionlessly: "This little brother is not a businessman, I just bring him to see him." After that, he walked to the side and his eyes were on a porcelain bowl.

"This shoveling of land is just not opening a store, but specializes in traveling to the countryside to receive goods, and some of them simply receive goods from Tushizi." Ma Wenyuan said.

Tang Hao nodded, looking suddenly.

He also knew that the Tushizi refers to the person who stole the ancient tomb.

Tang Hao was very novel and kept looking around.

As he looked at it, he suddenly frowned, but found that these cultural relics were a little strange. Each of them seemed to be surrounded by a breath, either light or thick, each of them was different.

He couldn't feel it when he stood a little farther away, but as soon as he got closer, he could feel it.

Touch with your hands and the feeling will be clearer.

"By the way, these antiques have survived for a long time, and over time, they naturally condense a little energy. The longer they live in, the stronger the energy should be."

After thinking for a while, Tang Hao understood.

At this time, Master Jiu picked up the porcelain bowl in front of him, looked at it carefully, put it down, and said, "I will pay 150,000 yuan for this thing!"

Hearing the Ninth Master’s bid, the others surrounded him and looked at him, and then several people bid.

"I'll pay 160,000!"

"I'll pay 170,000!"

"I'll pay 200,000!" Zhou Daya shouted and squeezed in.

Master Jiu's face changed slightly, he looked at Zhou Daya coldly and said, "I'll give it to you!"

"Haha! Master Jiu, Cheng Rang, Cheng Rang!" Zhou Daya smiled happily, picked up the porcelain bowl and looked at it, and said, "The things in the late Qing Dynasty official kilns have a slightly worse quality, but they can still be sold at a good price."
