Chapter 707

After coming out from Zuoshan, Chu Chen and Hu Yong came to the ward where LV Fuquan and his wife were not far away.

After several months of treatment, Mrs. Lu's injury has basically recovered, and she will be discharged in a few days.

The couple were very happy to see Chu Chen come in. They asked Chu Chen and Hu Yong to sit down and make a cup of tea for them.

"How are your legs feeling now, sister-in-law?" Chuchen asked with a smile.

"I feel better, but the doctor wants me to stay for a few days." Mrs. Lu frowned when she said that she had been in the hospital for several months, so she was very concerned about the situation at home.

Chuchen said with a smile: "sister-in-law, the doctor said that for your own good. After a few days, you can't stay for a long time. "

Although LV Fuquan was also concerned about his family's situation, he still agreed with what Chu Chen said, saying:

"Chen Wazi is right. After all, we have spent so much money to treat our illness. If there are any problems left, it's not a waste of money!"

"Crow mouth!" Lu Sao smell speech white husband one eye.

Chuchen laughed and asked, "brother Fuquan, when will the doctor let you leave the hospital?"

"About the twentieth." Lu Fuquan replied.

"Twenty!" Chu Chen said, "I'm going to Myanmar on the 18th. I don't think I'll have time to come by then."

LV Fuquan said: "it's OK! don't worry! We're all grown-ups. We'll take care of the discharge. "

Chu Chen nodded, this kind of thing as long as say hello in advance, he said: "at that time, I have a document about the establishment of scholarship, please bring it to the old principal."

Originally, it was nothing to bring documents to Chu Chen, and it was such a good thing. Of course, there was nothing to refuse. LV Fuquan and his wife agreed busily.

After chatting for a while, Chu Chen and Hu Yong bid farewell to each other.

…………

The second day is the second day of the second lunar month, also known as the dragon's head, commonly known as the Green Dragon Festival, legend is the day of the dragon's head, it is a traditional festival in rural China, called "dragon head Festival". As the saying goes: "February 2, the dragon head, we small households make cattle." At this time, Yang rises, the earth thaws, and spring ploughing will begin. It's the time to transport manure for ploughing.

Chuchen lived in the countryside when he was a child. Therefore, at this time of the year, the village will celebrate the "dragon head Festival" to show respect for the dragon and pray for rain, and let God bless the harvest.

However, now living in the city, there is no such activity. Even some people don't know about the festival at all. Sometimes Chu Chen also thinks that people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are getting richer and richer, but traditional culture is declining. Is this cultural progress or retrogression?

With a little emotion, after breakfast, Chu Chen said hello to his parents, drove to Uncle Wu's house and took him to his shop.

Arrived there, Chu Chen dealt with a few things on the job first, just went next door to see the progress of next decorate.

In fact, if you decorate the main store like this, the next door should be able to be completed by now, but this is a place for entertaining distinguished guests. The decoration must be more meticulous and the time will be longer.

After turning around and asking the person in charge a few questions, Chu Chen went back to the main store with satisfaction. According to the current progress, in another week, it will be basically completed. At that time, he will be able to start business when he comes back from England.

Chu Chen was walking to the door when he saw Zhu Dafu and others coming together.

Both sides exchanged greetings, Qiao Qingtai said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, you have so many good things. After I saw them yesterday, I didn't sleep well at night. Look at me, my eyes are still red!"

With that, he pointed to his own eyes like a joke.

Other people also nodded and agreed. When they saw so many treasures yesterday, they were stunned and envious. Especially when they heard these things, Chu Chen almost picked them up, and his eyes almost popped out.

Chuchen said with a smile: "then you don't sleep for a while?"

"How can that be?" Qiao Qingtai shook his head: "it's not easy to come to the capital. How can I fall behind?"

Chuchen laughed and asked, "what are you going to do today? Go to the market or look at my collection again? "

"No, our eyes are about to fall out." Meng Yi said a joke with a smile.

An Gong Shi also said with a smile: "yes! As the old saying goes, once you see it, you have it. Now it's just right. If you look at it again, I'd like to rob it openly! "

After a burst of laughter, Zhu Dafu said, "we are going to visit Chengtian today. Will you go or not?"

According to Zhu Dafu, Chengtian is the name of a hotel. Most people only know that there is a Panjiayuan Antique City in Beijing, but real antique dealers know that there is a Chengtian hotel in Beijing.

In the 1990s, the business of Panjiayuan was booming. A large number of antique merchants came to Panjiayuan every week from southern provinces to find buyers with their antiques. Chengtian hotel was the place to provide accommodation for these merchants.Later, the merchants "wake up" and think, why not put out the antiques collection in the hotel, let the players and merchants have a look at their "treasures".

So, for a while, Chengtian Hotel became an "antique hot spot". In this way, Chengtian hotel gradually developed into a professional market for antique merchants to make friends and buy and sell antiques, which also attracted a large number of professional buyers to Taobao.

On the other side of Chengtian Hotel, chuchen has not been there for a long time, so he readily agrees to come down. Then he went into the shop and asked Uncle Wu if he would go. Uncle Wu agreed happily.

The party came to Chengtian Hotel, because it was past nine o'clock, and there was not a lot of people here.

Standing at the door of the hotel, Zhu Dafu suggested: "it's not convenient for so many of us to enter the room together. Why don't we look at it separately?"

"Yes Everyone agreed, and then they were ready to walk into the hotel.

"Come with me!" Meng Yixian saw Ji Haoliang go straight inside and quickly stopped him.

"Why?" Ji Haoliang turned his lips.

"Just rely on your family Huizhen's advice to me before she left. If you have the ability, you will rebel against her." Meng Yi said with a smile.

"Rebel, rebel!" Ji Haoliang muttered, but even though he said so, he certainly did not dare to ask him to take action.

Meng Yixian laughs, and then goes to the hotel. Although Ji Haoliang is extremely unwilling, he can only follow him honestly.

Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn't help laughing to himself, and then he went in.

In the hotel, 8:00 to 11:00 in the morning is the most time for Taoists. In the afternoon, there are fewer people. As for the guests who come here, they are mostly antique lovers in the capital, as well as shop owners and chain dealers.

Because of this, there are more experts here. When they buy goods, they have their own unique principles. It's hard for the sellers to deceive them. Because of this, the goods here are easy to sell at a glance, and most of them are miscellaneous or fake, so few people patronize them.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there are no fakes in the field of antiques. There are also many fakes here, so we should be careful when we should pay attention to them.

Walking into the hotel, Chu Chen saw many rooms open to welcome guests from all directions.

In Chengtian Hotel, tenants can be roughly divided into three situations. One is long-term residence, and they sell goods in the form of business. One is to make an appointment with a regular customer, come and stay for a day or two, and then leave when the business is finished.

Finally, there is another kind of people who come to Panjiayuan and other places to shop for cultural relics and antiques on weekends. They live for three or five days at most. Those close to the capital come almost every week, rain or shine.

Chu Chen saw that everyone went into the room to select the goods. He also chose a room and went in.

The owner of this room is a man in his thirties. When he saw Chu Chen come in, he just nodded and laughed. He didn't mean to introduce his collection. This is also because many of the people who came here are experts. They can see how the goods are.

Although Chu Chen is young, if he is also an expert, he just introduces his things with good words. In the end, he just makes jokes.

There were only seven or eight pieces of porcelain, three of which were color candlesticks. But it was these candlesticks that attracted Chu Chen's interest.

In fact, the reason why Chu Chen was interested in the color Candlestick was that last night, he had baked the blank paper on the back pages with an alcohol lamp. Not surprisingly, the blank paper did record things.

However, after reading it, he was somewhat disappointed. The five blank pieces of paper only drew six related things and wrote related introductions. In addition to the three pieces of treasure map, the other two pages are painted with a candlestick, and the last page is painted with a box and a key.

Besides, there is no other clue on the paper.

Chu Chen was more or less depressed about this result. He thought he could find some useful clues, but he didn't expect that it was this. Although these pictures were helpful to him, they were no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Secretly shook his head, Chu Chen came forward, nodded to the owner, and then picked up the candlestick to observe.

Candlesticks have appeared in the Three Kingdoms and the two Jin Dynasties. They were celadon candlesticks with different shapes. There were sheep shaped candlesticks in the Three Kingdoms and lion shaped candlesticks in the two Jin Dynasties.

In the Southern Dynasties, the shape of the candlestick became more and more complicated. Its special base was in the shape of an inverted lotus, with lotus ornaments carved on the outside, a horizontal partition board on the top, and four bamboo cups of the same size on the board. Several candles could be inserted at the same time. Sui and Tang candlesticks are exquisitely carved.

The candlesticks in Ming Dynasty are rich in shape and have high artistic appreciation value. Among them, the candlesticks fired in Jingdezhen kilns in Yongle and Xuande periods have octagonal mouth and pedestal, and cylindrical neck. During the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a tubular column standing on the top of the candlestick plate. After the Qing Dynasty, the shape of the candlestick basically followed this style
