Chapter 553
"Is it so pitiable?" At this time, Bao Longtu's eyes were full of suspicion: "Is there really a spiritual guide in the hands of such an unscrupulous businessman?"
"Yes, there must be." Xu Zhang said sure: "I have seen a square of ebony in his shop, which is definitely a rare ebony."
"Ebony?" Fang Yuan's eyes flashed and he immediately smiled: "If it is really an ebony, then it is indeed a good spiritual inspiration."
Although the property of ebony is Yin, it will take at least thousands of years of evolution before it can become ebony. Quantitative change causes qualitative change, and the extreme of things will reverse, and the cathode yang will be born, which is naturally a suitable spiritual inspiration. Moreover, ebony that can be called a treasure must be of extraordinary material and cannot be missed.
Hearing this, Yin Yue no longer hesitated and quickly asked someone to prepare the vehicle.
After a while, the car came and everyone got on the bus. Then, under Xu Zhang's guidance, the driver left at lightning and soon arrived at the city. The person Xu Zhang mentioned was running a shop in a street in the city.
After more than half an hour, the driver drove into a relatively remote street. There were not many people here, but there were many shops and were densely distributed along both sides of the street.
Fang Yuan looked at it and saw familiar words on the signs, such as Yin and Yang, Tai Chi, Yi Xue, Bagua, Good and Bad, Ge, etc. At first glance, it was spread all over the street. From this we can also know that this is Feng Shui Street.
At the right time, Xu Zhang instructed: "Stay going, turn right, and you'll be almost there."
The driver nodded and drove as instructed. After turning, there was a small alley in front of him. The entrance of the alley was narrower, but the deeper the deeper the lane, the wider the lane. Thirty or forty meters went straight, a bungalow appeared in front of him, which was exactly the end of the alley, blocking the lane completely.
Needless to say, this place should be the destination. The driver was also sensible and slowly stopped the car.
After everyone got off the car, they naturally looked curiously. But they saw that the bungalow was square, with flying eaves on the top, and there were three steps at the gate. There were a small stone lion on both sides.
This situation makes the bungalow not look like a residence, but rather a temple.
At this time, the door of the bungalow was open. Fang Yuan looked deeper and found that the layout in the room was also very interesting. The entrance was a smaller space, and there was a moon-shaped arch inside, and behind the arch was a larger space.
"Rounding gourd." At first glance, Fang Yuan smiled: "A very interesting layout."
"What did you say?" Bao Longtu didn't hear it clearly.
"I'm talking about the layout of the shop, which should be a rolling gourd," Fang Yuan explained: "You will know when you go in. The space inside should be round, square on the outside and round on the inside. In addition, this curved tunnel seems like a long 'twist'. Based on the judgment, this is definitely a shape of a rolling gourd!"
"Expert." At this moment, someone praised and praised in the bungalow. Everyone hurriedly looked at it and saw a middle-aged man who seemed honest and honest on the surface, but his eyes were moving and shrewd and bright, slowly walked out.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, I have brought you a few guests. Remember to treat me to dinner when you look back." Xu Zhangli smiled and pointed out the identity of the visitor to everyone.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Manager Zhou's eyes became even more smiling, and he said with a kind look: "Disciple visitor, welcome, welcome. Don't stand outside, please come in and have tea."
"Shopkeeper Zhou, I'm disturbing." Yin Yue smiled slightly and walked in first. On the way, with Xu Zhang's suggestion, she was also mentally prepared to be a sucker and be slaughtered. Anyway, as long as she could buy a suitable spiritual intent, she would accept it if she spent more money.
As soon as Yin Yue stood up, Manager Zhou immediately understood who was the one who paid for it. He smiled diligently and said, "The customer is visiting, and the shop is full of glory, how can you say it is disturbing?"
"...It's really a profiteer!" Xu Zhang couldn't help but complain, then turned around and said, "Let's go in together. Although this guy is a bit unkind, the tea in the store is still good."
Xu Zhang was a bit of a reversal, and the others smiled and walked into the store.
After entering the door, you can find that the space inside is very spacious. The relatively small space is a place to entertain guests. The larger space behind the arch is rows of shelves.
At the greeting of Manager Zhou, everyone sat down in the tea room, but the purpose looked at the shelves. They saw that there were a wide range of things on the shelves, which made people dazzled and dazzled.
Seeing this, Manager Zhou smiled again, and then slowly boiled water and brewed tea. After a while, the water could be boiled, and then brewed the tea leaves. In a moment, a clear tea fragrance rose and filled it.
After smelling the fragrance, Fang Yuan and others realized that Xu Zhang was not lying and the tea in the store was indeed good.
"This is Yongchuan Xiuya, the local tea." Xu Zhang smiled and said, "The reputation is definitely not as loud as the top ten famous teas, but the quality is not bad. Especially with the connections of Manager Zhou, you can get the best tea..."
"Where, where, there are more friends," said Zhou Shopkeeper with a smile: "If you open the door and do business, the prerequisite is that you need enough friends. If you have too many friends, you can walk on the road so that you can eat."
If Xu Zhang hadn't said anything before, it would be hard for everyone to imagine that the owner of the shop with a very nice smile in front of him was actually an unscrupulous businessman.
Anyway, Bao Longtu had some doubts, and doubted whether Xu Zhang had a conflict with Manager Zhou, so he deliberately smeared others. With this idea, he simply interfered with the matter and asked straight to the point: "Brandmaster Zhou, you are too right. Friends must take care of each other so that friendship can last forever. We need to buy something now, and I wonder what good recommendations are there for Manager Zhou?"
In an instant, Manager Zhou smiled, but in his honest smile, there was a cunning meaning: "Little brother, you are Master Xu's friends. Didn't he tell you the rules in my store?"
"What rules?" Bao Longtu and others were stunned and confused.
"...I forgot to say it." Xu Zhang said in a muffled voice: "The rule is that after the customer comes in, he will buy all the things he needs by himself. He will not help recommending it, nor will he be responsible for the authenticity."
"…The profitable businessman is indeed a profitable businessman."
The others were stunned and a little dumbfounded. This is obviously a hint that there are fakes in the store. Don’t blame me for not declaring it in advance. Anyway, I have already reminded you and bought fakes, so I can only blame you for not having the eyesight.
Can such a store have business? Everyone has questions, but the facts have proved that they not only have business, but also have good business and are booming.
The reason is nothing more than the trouble caused by greed.
After all, Xu Zhang also made it clear that in this store, there are not only fakes, but also some real things and some very precious real things. The most important thing is that the price of these real things is not very expensive.
People have the mentality of taking chances and taking advantage of others, that is, the idea of picking up bargains in the antique business. After knowing such a thing, they will naturally come here to try their luck. Over time, the business of this store will naturally be very good.
"Don't talk nonsense to him." At the same time, Xu Zhang stood up and greeted: "Everyone, go and have a look."
Xu Zhang was a bit ready to go, and he walked to the shelves with great strides and started to fumble easily. Obviously, he did this kind of thing not once or twice, so his movements were so sophisticated.
Fang Yuan and others looked at each other and naturally followed him.
When they came to the shelves, they found that there were a wide range of things that were made of wood products. Various carvings, various decorations, large and small, arranged neatly and in an orderly manner in the shelf, very dense.
"Ebony, ebony..." Xu Zhang muttered: "It was still there before, but now it is gone. Please help me find it..."
At Xu Zhang's greeting, no matter whether the others understood or not, they also looked at it. Fang Yuan did not look at it, or after a few glances, he retreated and sat down to have tea again.
Manager Zhou was stunned and asked with a smile: "Little brother, don't you go and have a look?"
"I don't understand, so it's useless to read it." Fang Yuan smiled and said, "It's better to leave professional things to professionals."
"...It makes sense." Manager Zhou believed it, and someone accompanied him to drink tea. He was quite happy and immediately held the pot and wanted to add tea to Fang Yuan. However, the action was a bit too big, and the tea water spilled from the pot and splashed a little onto the tea table.
Speaking of which, the tea table in the store is quite unique, just a long piece of wood with a stool underneath, which becomes a simple tea table. It has a simple color, a little red and yellow, no reflection of light, but full of thick texture.
The tea splashed on the table, and Manager Zhou reacted quickly. With a smear, he immediately left a thin layer of water stains. And in the blink of an eye, the water stains naturally dried up.
Seeing this situation, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up slightly and he suddenly said, "Shopkeeper Zhou, as long as it is the thing in your store, it should be a product, right?"
"Hmm?" Manager Zhou was stunned, then a look of vigilance appeared in his eyes, and he smiled: "Little brother, what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting." Fang Yuan smiled: "Just seeing this teapot is good, I asked casually."
"Teapot!" Manager Zhou looked down and smiled, applauding: "Little brother, have vision."
"It's just average." Fang Yuan looked reserved: "If you can't even recognize the purple clay teapot, then I've been playing with antiques for vain over the years."
While speaking, Fang Yuan took out the style of being an expert and commented: "Look at this pot, the pot is full in shape, melon-shaped, with a restrained surface color, implicit and gentle, and is quiet and not ostentatious. The patina has completely settled down, just like an ancient gentleman, humble and kind, giving people a feeling of spring breeze..."
