Chapter 2137 Fishing
In the smaller shop on the Antique Street, Wang Zan and Feng Zhining made a move after entering, glanced around a few times and asked the boss if there was anyone selling monk's skirts. If the other party shook his head, the two of them would no longer ask, so they continued to walk inside.
When they encounter larger stores such as Lixingxing, they will ask for a while and let the boss recall whether there are such things. There were four or five stores in total and no gains were obtained. Finally, the two of them came to Yuanbaozhai, the largest antique shop in the local area.
When Wang Zan entered the store, he looked around and felt that the largest local store was still a bit product. At least most of the things on the shelves were genuine, although there were also a few things mixed in it that the store deliberately placed or were slashed.
Wang Zan's outfit is quite average, but anyone who can see the look of Feng Zhining, the young master, can see that this outfit and accessories are valuable, at least more than six figures. The shopkeeper of Yuanbaozhai seems to have seen the world. After glanced at the two of them, he took the initiative to greet them.
"You two can take a look at it casually, but what is the purpose? Our store has been operating in the local area for a hundred years. Let's put it this way, we dare not say how big the business is in Chang'an, but it can still be called second to none in Yulin. You can tell me if you have any needs and help you satisfy you." The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and said with a smile.
Feng Zhining looked at Wang Zan, nodded and said, "Well, take a look."
"Okay, look at me, if you need it, just ask me."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he stood aside and waited. Feng Zhining whispered in Wang Zan's ear: "The last family is here, I wonder if it can be done?"
"It's okay, isn't there a second-hand dealer who specializes in buying goods? If this doesn't work, I can only find that Xing Lao Liu." After Wang Zan walked around, he suddenly turned around and said to the shopkeeper: "Boss, we mainly want to see if you have any things used by lamas from Tibetan areas."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Do you want this? We are not specializing in Tibetan trading."
Wang Zan said, "Haha, that's right. The old man at home has had some problems recently. He asked a gentleman to come and calculate it. He said that he needs the prayer wheels, monk skirts, and Tibetan silver used by the lama. I don't know what it means. I just thought about coming here to see if you have any introductions?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "There is one piece of Tibetan silver, but there are nothing else. I'll take it to you to see?"
Feng Zhining couldn't help but feel a little hopeful on his face, and Wang Zan said calmly: "Okay, let's see if it's okay?"
"Oh, then you can wait"
Feng Zhining sighed, spread his hands and said, "It's over, this trip has been in vain again."
The two of them walked around the street this morning, but they still found nothing. They also paid attention to the situation in Li Zicheng's palace during this period. Today, they were even more speechless. There was not even a cloud in the northeast, let alone a cloud.
After a while, the shopkeeper brought a few things about Tibetan silver and handed them to them. Feng Zhining was bored. Wang Zan pretended to look at it for a while, then frowned and said, "This thing looks a bit old but has no value. The texture of this Tibetan silver is a bit black. Although it seems to be played with by people often, there is also a lot of dirt. If it is worn by a meritorious lama for many years, it will feel very unusual in hand. This is much worse."
The shopkeeper immediately stretched out his thumb and praised, "I can't tell, you are still an expert."
"The elderly at home like it and collected a lot of things. We know a little about it." Wang Zan paused and handed the Tibetan silver to the boss and said, "It's a pity that you don't like. I'll ask if anyone can run this kind of thing in the shopkeeper? The Tibetan area is too far away, so we don't want to run, so we just want to see it locally. I've also visited this street before, thinking that the shop at Yuanbaozhai might have a reward if it's a little bigger."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Then you are going to run away in vain. If we don't have this, it will be a big deal elsewhere."
Wang Zan said "hehe" and said, "Didn't you say that you have collected a lot of things at home. Some of them were bought from the store, and some were a little simpler and collected directly from your own hands. Do you understand this? I mean... do you recognize them? People who specialize in this business will introduce them to us."
"This..." The shopkeeper was obviously a little hesitant. He must have known Xing Laoliu, but the other party was doing a business that was invisible and most people would not see him. He could not casually shake the other party out. If Wang Zan and Feng Zhining were the people investigated by the official, they would probably cause a lot of trouble.
Wang Zan winked at Feng Zhining, then he took out a stack of money from his pocket and stuffed it directly into the shopkeeper's hand, saying, "Help help, thank you, the shopkeeper."
"There is someone named Xing Laoliu. He is secretly running this kind of business here." The shopkeeper glanced at the thick stack of money in his hand and said, "He may have it in his hand if there is not in the store. To be honest, many of the shops on our street are provided by him. If you can't buy it here, you may have to go to the Tibetan area specifically."
"Okay, please introduce it to me if you are tired. How about we meet him and then have an interview?"
"Okay, I'll call him."
The shopkeeper nodded, took out his cell phone and found a number and dialed it out. Soon the other side was connected. I heard someone say, "Shopkeeper Yu, you are doing well in this business. You just delivered the goods to you a few days ago. Why are you planning to make another transaction today?"
Manager Yu glanced at them and said, "I have two customers here and want to buy some things. Unfortunately, they didn't like them in our store, so I'm thinking about introducing them to you."
Xing Laoliu paused and said in a dissatisfaction: "Shopkeeper, you're doing this rule a little bit short."
Manager Yu smiled awkwardly and said, "They are fine and generous, and they are not the kind of person you think. Don't worry, I still have this little bit of vision. Brother really wants to introduce you to the business. It would be a pity if you miss it."
