Kundi is a good place. In July, the maximum temperature in other areas has soared to 37 or 8 degrees, but here it still maintains a very mild and comfortable temperature. It is precisely because of this that tourism here is very popular every summer vacation.
Li Mo pushed his suitcase out of the airport, looked up at the sun, took a few breaths of air and reminded Chen Xiaoyan beside him: "The altitude here is high. If you feel uncomfortable, you should tell him in time and don't hold on."
"I know, little uncle."
Chen Xiaoyan still carries the long tube on her back that can be assembled into a long stick at any time. It seems to have become a habit. While waiting for the taxi, Li Mo couldn't help but said: "You don't need to carry weapons with you. No one can get close to me. When you get to the hotel, put the weapons in the room to save them on your back." Running all over the body.”
"Uncle Master, I'm just practicing, it's okay."
Li Mo couldn't say anything else. People had said that this was a way of practicing martial arts. He couldn't persuade her not to work so hard and make progress.
A taxi slowly stopped in front of the two of them. Li Mo moved his luggage into the trunk of the car and got into the back seat with Chen Xiaoyan.
"Handsome beauties, are you here for a trip?"
Just when Chen Xiaoyan was about to answer yes, Li Mo said first, "We're here to visit our relatives, master. You can take us to the Intercontinental Hotel."
"okay."
The taxi started and kept going along the elevated road. Chen Xiaoyan looked at the navigation map on her phone and saw that the car did not reach its destination directly and seemed to be taking a detour along the elevated highway. But the young master uncle beside him didn't say anything and had no choice but to remain silent. After driving for about forty minutes, the taxi finally heard the doorman in front of the Intercontinental Hotel. A doorman quickly ran up to help open the door.
"Both of you, fare is eighty-nine yuan."
Li Mo got out of the car without saying anything, but Chen Xiaoyan snorted coldly: "Are you treating us as villains? Do you want me to call the police?"
"Little girl, you have to have evidence for what you say." The taxi driver didn't panic, but showed a hint of warning.
Chen Xiaoyan took out her mobile phone: "I have recorded your driving route. Isn't it eighty-nine yuan? I'll pay you every penny."
After paying the money on her mobile phone, Chen Xiaoyan got out of the car angrily.
Li Mo had already unloaded the suitcases into the car. When he saw her looking like he was about to fight, he couldn't help but said, "Just get used to it. Just follow me and practice Tai Chi to cultivate your character."
"I really want to knock him to the ground with a stick and rub him back and forth."
"You have to deal with this matter calmly. It's up to me."
Li Mo watched the taxi drive far away, took a photo with his mobile phone, and then posted a message: It's my first time coming to Kundi. It only takes more than thirty yuan to get there from the airport to the hotel, but the taxi driver here He was so enthusiastic that he took us around in a big circle and ended up paying three times the fare. Friends who like this kind of service can come here to enjoy the preferential treatment whenever they have nothing to do.
Chen Xiaoyan watched him send it out, and her eyes lit up. It was the junior uncle who knew how to cause trouble.
After checking in, Li Mo and Chen Xiaoyan had a quick bite to eat and were ready to go out for a walk.
But his comment became a hot search topic in just half an hour. Li Mo was originally a topical figure, and countless media were watching his every move to see when he would make something big happen again.
Sure enough, after Millennium Shengzang Group liked it, various media outlets took action one after another. Traffic is wealth, and whoever is late will lose a bite of the cake.
Then Kundi officials received the exact news, which has two meanings: First, the famous treasure hunting expert Li Mo, a dual-time professor at Peking University and Qingda University, arrived in Kundi. It is said that every time he goes to a place, either a treasure is born, or a rare treasure is discovered. A national treasure is born. Second, as soon as he arrived in Kundi, he was treated as a fat sheep and slaughtered.
After finishing the trip, I saw the major video websites, and many media received fierce complaints from tourists from all over the country. All of a sudden, Kundi officials were pushed to the forefront.
"Uncle Junior, I guess they will burst into tears right now." Chen Xiaoyan smiled, as if she had already won the battle.
"Such complaints are strictly prohibited in Yanjiao, Kyoto. Any complaint received will be dealt with very seriously. This is treated as a top priority. Since we are in the tourism market, all supporting services must be fully followed. On. Only when tourists have a good experience will a good reputation be fermented.”
Chen Xiaoyan was thoughtful.
"If a company can provide good service, then the company will have long-term development potential and unlimited potential. During this time, you should look more and think more. When you return to Kyoto, I will arrange a job for you, just with this kind of company." Related to supporting services.”
"Uncle Junior, I'm worried that I can't do it well."
"Your aunt was just a financial executive of a foreign company back then, but now she is the president of Millennium Shengzang Group, controlling a market worth trillions. Your eldest brother was born as a soldier, and is now the general manager of Safe Shield Company, with thousands of employees He trained me to be obedient. What are you worried about? No matter how bad you do, how bad can it be?"
Chen Xiaoyan said "Oh"
"Master, go to Huguoqiao Antique City."
When Li Mo went to Myanmar to participate in a public sale, he passed through the airport in Kundi, but he never visited the antique city seriously.
Huguoqiao Antique City is currently the only remaining old-fashioned collection market in Kundi. After long-term development, it has formed a fixed Saturday Taobao stall. Every Saturday, at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, there are already sounds of begging and bargaining in the market.
Stall setters include both local fixed dealers and mobile vendors from all over the country. The people who come to Taobao to pick up missing items include experts who open stores, as well as amateurs who like to collect. Here, you can pick up porcelain, bronze, jade, miscellaneous items, etc.
Visiting the antique market is also Li Mo’s favorite. It’s fun to find something missing while bargaining.
"You two are here for tourism, right? Many tourists from out of town come here. If it happens to be a Saturday, they will most likely go there to go shopping. It's not far from here, about twenty minutes away. It's okay to go there, but I would also like to give you a friendly reminder, don’t rush to inquire about the price of anything you like, there are too many tricks to play with antiques.”
Li Mo just smiled and nodded, and Chen Xiaoyan thought in her heart that there were still good people.
"If you are really interested in antiques, there is a time-honored antique shop in the Huguoqiao Antique Market. It is said to have a history of more than a hundred years. There are many good things in it. Although the price is high, the items are guaranteed to be authentic. .”
When the driver changed his subject, Li Mo still just smiled.
"That antique shop is called Qi Jingzhai. You can go in and have a look when you get there."
Chen Xiaoyan also heard a different taste. The driver was so enthusiastic because he was paving the way for these words, and she suddenly lost all the goodwill she had towards him.
The two of them didn't respond. The driver kept talking about how good Qi Jingzhai's reputation was and what priceless antiques he had sold. He just said that he was professional in introducing customers to their store.
The taxi stopped on the roadside outside the Antique Street. After Li Mo got out of the car, he saw that Chen Xiaoyan's face was not good-looking. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Did you faint because of the driver?"
"It's not that I'm dizzy, I'm just bored."
"Haha, I will encounter a lot of things like this in the future, so I have to strengthen my brain nerves. I walked around the Magic City Antique Market with me, and it is very important to cooperate when you encounter good things."
"Hmm, little uncle, please give me a hint when the time comes. Should we visit the street stalls outside first or go to the antique shop first?"
"Just go as you like. This Taobao business depends on your eyesight and opportunity. Sometimes being casual can lead to unexpected gains."
The Huguoqiao Antique Market is indeed the oldest market in existence. There are so many street stalls that you can see rows of stalls in the streets and alleys. Coupled with the outdoor temperature of around 25 degrees, it will feel particularly comfortable when exposed to the sun.
Tourists and businessmen from all over the world competed with each other and staged dramas of falling in love and killing each other. When I arrived in Kundi, there was an obvious difference from other places, that is, I saw colorful ethnic costumes among the crowds of people, representing that they came from different ethnic minorities. Of course, their accents were also very strange.
"Uncle, that young lady is wearing very beautiful ethnic clothes."
Beautiful women naturally pay more attention to beautiful clothes and jewelry. Chen Xiaoyan pointed to a stall not far away, and there was a public notice board next to it, which said Deaf-mute, please choose by yourself, no bargaining.
No one was looking at this stall, but there were people stopping to choose at the stalls on both sides.
Li Mo looked at her clothes. They were very beautiful and full of ethnic characteristics, but he didn't know which ethnic group she belonged to.
Chen Xiaoyan and the pretty stall owner looked at each other and gestured to express that they wanted to see what was on the stall.
The stall mainly displays various silver jewelry. Judging from the oxidation and graying of the surface, it seems that they are all old items.
The shapes of silver jewelry are also full of ethnic characteristics, ranging from a silver hat on the head to an ear stud ring.
Chen Xiaoyan knelt down and took a look at some exquisite silver jewelry, and then asked: "Uncle, do you think these are beautiful?"
"Why did you buy these?"
"I think they all look pretty."
Li Mo smiled and said: "You can buy any ethnic style silver jewelry you want in a gold and silver jewelry store, and they are all new. Why buy this old one?"
Chen Xiaoyan was dumbfounded by the question, and Li Mo sighed secretly. This child has no vigilance at all, and is simply overflowing with kindness. She believed someone who put up a sign saying he was deaf-mute.
"Then I won't buy it."
Chen Xiaoyan was about to put it down, but the stall owner immediately became anxious and gestured with his hands.
"I don't understand sign language."
Chen Xiaoyan waved her hand.
"She said if you really like it, she won't give you ten yuan each."
Li Mo said leisurely from the side.
"Ah, so cheap." Chen Xiaoyan turned to look at him and asked strangely, "Uncle, do you understand dumb language?"
"Of course, she also said that since you are so beautiful, she would like to buy three and get one free."
The young girl wearing ethnic clothes looked at Li Mo's face, her expression suddenly sank, and she couldn't help but said: "Go, go, go."
Chen Xiaoyan looked at the boss blankly, then suddenly covered her mouth and smiled. She stood up and took Li Mo's arm and walked forward: "Uncle, I almost believed what you said just now. I really thought silver jewelry was so cheap."
】
"Didn't you realize that her accent is the same as your hometown accent?"
Li Mo was speechless.
"Hahaha.
. "
Chen Xiaoyan didn't know what she thought of, but instead of being angry, she smiled happily.
"Uncle Master, your method is too bad. It destroyed other people's merits all at once."
Li Mo didn't answer. He stopped in front of a stall. The stall was quite large and was watched by two bosses. There were more than 20 pieces of porcelain, a dozen pieces of pottery and some porcelain fragments.
"Uncle Junior, do you have any porcelain fragments that you can put out for sale?"
"It depends on what kind of porcelain fragments it is. For example, fragments of underglaze red porcelain from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty are displayed as treasures in the Jinling Museum. All museums in China add up, and the total collection of intact Hongwu underglaze red porcelain from the Ming Dynasty is as large as one hand. You can count them all, so the fragments are real treasures. As for the fragments on the street stall like this, I guess boss Zhang wants to try his luck."
The two bosses looked at Li Mo unhappily, but he was wearing large fashionable sunglasses and a duck-bill hat on his head, so he couldn't see his true face clearly.
Li Mo didn't care what they were looking at. He knelt down and picked up a red underglaze moon bottle. In terms of the firing process, it was quite exquisite. At least there were no flaws visible on the surface.
Looking at the bottom of the bottle, there is a blue and white six-character double row style: Made in the Jiajing Year of the Ming Dynasty. This underglaze red moon-holding vase is made of a porcelain body and is fired in one piece. It does not even have the typical characteristics of Ming Dynasty porcelain. It cannot be considered a high imitation. It is just a pretty modern handicraft.
"Xiaoyan, does this underglaze red moon vase look good?"
Li Mo asked, raising the moon bottle in his hand.
Chen Xiaoyan glanced at it and nodded: "It's okay. If you buy it and put it in the open compartment of the bookcase, it should have a very beautiful decorative effect with the lighting."
"Boss, how much does this cost?"
The face of the male boss, who was about fifty years old, immediately improved. He smiled brightly and said, "This is Ming Dynasty porcelain. We won't sell it for less than 88,000 yuan."
Li Mo didn't respond to his casual offer, but humbly asked: "Boss, how can I tell if this porcelain is from the Ming Dynasty?"
"Look at the mark on the foot. Doesn't it clearly say the Jiajing Year of the Ming Dynasty?"
"That's right, then if it's about primitive people, it has a history of tens of thousands of years."
Chen Xiaoyan looked like she had gained something.
The two bosses were immediately speechless.
"Boss, please give me a real price, eighty-eight thousand. All the porcelain in your stall is not worth that much. So, for five hundred yuan a piece, how about I pick a few pieces from your stall?"
"Young man, you can't just casually say that every piece of porcelain on my stall is of high quality, why is it not worth so much money? Let me tell you this, not a single piece of porcelain sold from me is Less than 8,800.”
"Five hundred a piece, that's fine."
The boss was still struggling: "Young man, this is not how you bargain. No customer who has ever done business with me has ever bid less than eight hundred and eighty."
"Just five hundred pieces." Li Mo was determined.
"Young man, no one does business like you. No matter what, we businessmen also want to seek good luck. How about six hundred and sixty-one?"
"It's boring."
Li Mo shook his head and stood up to leave.
"Young man, five hundred is five hundred, deal."
