treasure hunter

After a night of nothing, Pei Miao woke up early the next morning. The first thing she did after waking up was to pick up her phone to check the time. It was exactly six o'clock, and Pei Miao immediately called Pan Jinting.

Pan Jinting answered the phone: "Hello—"

The hazy voice meant that she hadn't gotten enough sleep.

Pei Miao said: "Get up quickly, and leave for Liulichang in 20 minutes. If you delay me by another minute today, I will complain to you."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Pan Jinting sat up depressed, rubbed her disheveled hair, and shouted angrily, "I'm so mad!"

Pei Miao finished washing in 10 minutes, and stood outside Pan Jinting's room with Jiang Long. At 6:20, Pan Jinting opened the door and came out. Her makeup today was very simple, and her hair seemed a little messy. Didn't have time to comb it.

Pei Miao said: "Let's go." Then he left.

Jiang Long followed closely behind, Pan Jinting sighed helplessly, and followed them to the elevator.

After going downstairs, they got in the car. Today, Pan Jinting was still driving. Pei Miao and Jiang Long sat in the back seat. The car started and drove out of the parking lot.

It may be because Pan Jinting is in a bad mood, she is too lazy to chat with Pei Miao today, and the atmosphere in the car is a bit dull.

Fortunately, Liulichang is not far away, and we will arrive soon. It is good to come early. There is a parking space. After parking the car, the three of them walked to Liulichang Street.

Liulichang Street originated in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, most of the candidates who came to Beijing to take the imperial examination lived in this area. Therefore, there are many shops selling books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones here, forming a strong cultural atmosphere.Most foreigners come here to travel in Beijing.The well-known Liulichang Cultural Street in Beijing is located outside the Heping Gate of BJ, with a total length of about 800 meters to the south and North Willow Alley in XC District in the west and to Yanshou Street in XC District in the east.In fact, as far back as the Liao Dynasty in history, this place is not a city, but a suburb. It was called "Haiwang Village" at that time.Later, in the Yuan Dynasty, an official kiln was opened here to make glazed tiles.Since the construction of the inner city in the Ming Dynasty, the scale of official kilns has been expanded due to the construction of palaces. Liulichang became one of the five major factories of the Ministry of Industry at that time.After the construction of the outer city in the 32nd year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, this place became an urban area, and Liulichang was not suitable for firing kilns in the city, so it moved to Liuliqu Village in the mtg district, but the name "Liulichang" was kept and passed down.

Walking on Liulichang Street, you can feel the atmosphere of literature and art and retro. There are ancient buildings on both sides. In comparison, the cars parked by the roadside and the modern signboards of various shops look a bit unpleasant.

It is estimated that more than half of the shops facing the street on both sides are antique shops. Pei Miao and the others visited seven or eight shops in a row and found that most of the antique shops here sell stationery. It’s not wrong to come here, and there are many genuine goods in these shops. As long as you have money and good eyesight, you will be able to buy satisfactory study antiques.

But Pei Miao's purpose is not to buy study antiques, he is here to pick up the leaks. Although there are many good things in the seven or eight shops I visited just now, the prices are staggering, and there are no leaks to pick up. Lu Hongru Sure enough, he didn't lie to him, the antique shop in Liulichang, which shop doesn't have a master in charge, how can there be a trick.

Moving on, he visited five more stores, and finally, Pei Miao saw a leak in a store called "Debao Pavilion", which was a pen.

This pen is from the early Qing Dynasty. The pen holder is made of purple bamboo, with a diameter of about 6 mm and a length of about 20 cm. The pen holder is engraved with bamboo and orchid patterns, as well as mountains, rocks and flowing water. The carving is extremely exquisite and almost famous. It's a pity that it didn't sign.

Moreover, this pen does not seem to be used much. The wolf on the tip of the pen is not missing too much, and it is well preserved. The appearance of the whole pen is quite good.

From the exquisite appearance of this pen, it can be seen that the original owner of this pen is of extraordinary status. The price of this pen is 88000. Pei Miao tried to bargain with the boss, and finally bought it at a price of 66000.

After buying the pen, Pei Miao pushed the box containing the pen in front of Pan Jinting and said, "Would you like to see it?"

Pan Jinting rolled her eyes and said, "It's easy to see something with such a wide open door. Do you still use your hands to see it?"

Pei Miao smiled, didn't speak, picked up the receipt, closed the lid, turned around and walked out of the store.

After leaving the house, Pan Jinting caught up with Pei Miao and said, "Let me remind you, this pen of yours is not a steal, but rather expensive. If you compete hard with him, you can buy it for more than 3 yuan." , if you take it out during the game, you will be deducted points instead."

Pei Miao raised his eyebrows and said, "More than 3 yuan? Don't be kidding, you can buy the pen of the traitor Wu Sangui for more than 3 yuan?"

Pan Jinting was shocked when she heard the words, and asked in disbelief, "Is that Wu Sangui's pen?"

Pei Miao nodded and said, "Yeah, you didn't see it? Didn't you say that you don't need to read it with your hands, you can understand it at a glance."

Pan Jinting knew that he was narrowing herself, and said unconvinced: "I don't believe it, show it to me."

Pei Miao opened the pencil case and handed it to her.

Pan Jinting did not reach out to take it, but said: "Antiques are not enough, you can just point out the evidence to me."

Pei Miao smiled, turned the pen lightly, so that the rock carvings on the barrel of the pen were facing up, pointed to the rock and said, "Look here."

Pan Jinting took a closer look, squinted her eyes, frowned, but didn't understand.

Pei Miao took out the magnifying glass and handed it to her, saying, "Use the magnifying glass."

Pan Jinting looked at the rocks with a magnifying glass for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed: "Uncle Qin Postmaster!"

Pei Miao smiled and nodded: "That's right, Qin You, Wu Sangui's ancestral home, Wu Sangui, named Changbo."

Jiang Long suddenly asked: "Pei Xian... Miao, you seem to belong to Qin You too?"

Pei Miao nodded: "Yes, there are not many celebrities in my hometown, and there are only a few famous ones, Mr. Wang Zengqi, Qin Shaoyou, and the traitor Wu Sangui."

Jiang Longdao: "You are a small county, it is already very good to have these few celebrities."

Pan Jinting found out that she had lost to Pei Miao again, and she felt very uncomfortable. From school to internship, she had always been the best among her classmates, but ever since she met Pei Miao, the blow to her was too great.

In order to make herself feel less uncomfortable, she seemed to comfort herself: "The writing brush of a big traitor is not worth much. Even if it goes to an auction, no one will probably buy it."

Pei Miao said, "That's right, if you put it this way, Song Huizong's authentic copybooks are even more worthless."

"You put it..." Pan Jinting instinctively wanted to swear, but fortunately she stopped it in time and said, "Song Huizong's words are worth a thousand dollars, how can they be worthless!"

Pei Miao said: "Wu Sangui is a big traitor, how good is Song Huizong? You are a student of archaeology, so you should be very clear about history, right? , What kind of humiliation did the wives and daughters of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty endure? You are a woman, so you should be able to understand this shame even more."

Pan Jinting opened her mouth, but she was speechless.

Pei Miao continued: "When Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty was imprisoned in the Kingdom of Jin, his wife and daughter were abused by the Jin people day by day. His most beautiful daughter, Maode Diji, was directly insulted and the valley road was broken and died. But he was still with the Jin people. The woman gave birth to a child, I can't believe that there are such people in the world, what right does he have to call himself the emperor, he doesn't even have the qualifications to be a man! That's right, Wu Sangui is a big traitor, he let the Qing soldiers enter the pass, Let the Han people suffer disasters, but in all fairness, the Ming Dynasty that Wu Sangui was loyal to has already perished, and Li Zicheng sat in the country, does he need to be loyal to Li Zicheng, just like, if Liu Bei was killed by Cao Cao, then Zhang Fei and Guan Yu must be loyal Cao Cao, he should seek revenge from Cao Cao. Also, Li Zicheng was born recklessly and didn’t know how to restrain his subordinates. He actually attacked Wu Sangui’s family and robbed his wife Chen Yuanyuan. I don't believe that there are a few who can swallow this breath, many people believe in one sentence, if they can't even protect their own family members, why protect this country!"

Pan Jinting argued: "But he did something wrong! He committed a crime against the Han people. Jiading slaughtered three times, and Yangzhou ten days. Do you know how many Han people died!"

"Of course I know, I am from Yangzhou, and Jiading (Magic City) is not far away." Pei Miao said, "Dynasty changes and wars are raging. It is cruel, and the people will suffer in the end. Wu Sangui just happened to respond. After this catastrophe, without him, Wu Sangui, the Qing soldiers would still be able to enter the pass. Believe it or not! The Ming Dynasty was already rotten at that time, like a wall of mud, which would collapse if pushed down. Li Zicheng was born in a reckless family. , Even guarding the Shanhaiguan Pass, they can't stop the enemy from attacking their minds. Dorgon only needs to send people to sneak in and buy people's hearts, and countless traitors will naturally appear!"

"You...you..." Pan Jinting blushed with anger, but she couldn't argue with Pei Miao, and yelled, "You are irrational, Wu Sangui is obviously a big traitor, and you actually excused the big traitor!"

Pei Miao said: "I'm justifying him, but it's not considered to be justifying him. Wu Sangui has indeed committed a great crime against the Han people. This is history and an established fact. No one can change it. I just tried to stand on Wu Sangui's side. If I were him, facing the situation at that time, how would I choose, and finally I found...my choice is the same as his, since the country is ruined and the family is dead...revenge is the kingly way .”

Pan Jinting glared at Pei Miao, and was so angry that she couldn't speak. At this time, she was not only angry because she couldn't argue with Pei Miao, but what she was most angry about was that she also felt that what Pei Miao said seemed to have some truth.

But this conflicts with the knowledge she has learned and received in the past. Wu Sangui is a big traitor, how can he be exonerated.

Seeing that the two of them were arguing red-faced, Jiang Long hurriedly smoothed things over, saying: "Well, you seem to be digressing, aren't you talking, is this pen worth it?"

Pan Jinting knew that she couldn't compete with Pei Miao, so she simply took advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, angrily said: "It's worthless!"

Pei Miao said, "It must be worth hundreds of thousands, maybe a million."

Pan Jinting rolled her eyes at him: "Daydreaming."

Pei Miao raised an eyebrow at her: "Dreams are also so expensive."

It could be seen that Pei Miao was deliberately angering her.

Pei Miao was very happy to be able to pick up a leak in a place like Liulichang, and it was a medium leak. Today was a worthwhile trip.

However, Pei Miao's good luck seemed to come to an end here. Then, until lunch, he visited more than 20 stores, but he didn't miss a single one.

After lunch, he continued to stroll around, but he still didn't come across a chance to pick up leaks, which made Pei Miao sigh that Liulichang is indeed not a place to pick up leaks.

At [-]:[-] p.m., Pei Miao arrived at Rongbaozhai. Standing on the street, looking at the antique architectural style of Rongbaozhai and the three big characters on the plaque, he really felt that the grade was higher than his Jubaozhai. Go up a lot.

Seeing Pei Miao about to step into Jubaozhai, Pan Jinting suddenly stopped him: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Pei Miao turned to look at her, and said, "Obviously, let's go into the shop."

"Why did you enter Rongbaozhai?"

"Go for a walk." Pei Miao raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you want to go in and go to the bathroom?"

Pan Jinting said: "It's understandable if you go in and borrow the toilet."

Pei Miao said, "That won't work. I borrowed someone's toilet. How can they go to the toilet? Besides, the toilet is so big that I can't move it. It's unscientific."

"You..." Pan Jinting said angrily, "Why are you acting like this, you know exactly what I mean."

"Then what do you mean?" Pei Miao laughed and said, "You just think I shouldn't be in Rongbaozhai?"

"Yes." Pan Jinting said, "I don't have much time today, if you still want to catch up, you shouldn't go to Rongbaozhai to waste time."

"How can this be called a waste of time?" Pei Miao said, "I can still pick up leaks when I enter Rongbaozhai."

"Go to Rongbaozhai to pick up leaks?" Pan Jinting laughed angrily at him, "You can really joke, is Rongbaozhai a place where you can pick up leaks?"

Pei Miao raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why can't Rong Baozhai pick up the leaks?"

Pan Jinting said: "Rongbaozhai has more than a dozen master masters, each of them is an expert, and since the founding of the People's Republic of China, no one has ever been able to catch mistakes in Rongbaozhai. You actually want to pick up mistakes in Rongbaozhai. Fantastic."

Pei Miao smiled lightly, and said, "No one has missed anything in Rongbaozhai, but it doesn't mean that Rongbaozhai has no leaks to pick up."

"You mean that other people's eyesight is not good enough?"

"I didn't say that, you said it."

"That's what you mean." Pan Jinting said, "I advise you not to be too confident, overconfident, that's conceited, how many antique experts there are in Kyoto, do you know, there are not a thousand antique experts who visit Rongbaozhai every year Eight hundred, so many experts have failed to pick up the leak, so don't even think about it."

Pei Miao said: "Lv Hongru said before that Liulichang is not a place to pick up leaks, didn't I also pick up leaks in Liulichang?"

"Forget it, you can go in if you want!" Pan Jinting said angrily, "It's none of my business if you want to go in and waste time."

Pei Miao smiled and said, "That's it. You are just a guide. You follow me to witness my mistakes. You should not participate in or influence my decision."

"You..." Pan Jinting turned her head away angrily, muttering in a low voice, "A dog biting Lu Dongbin doesn't know a good heart."
