Chapter 37 Musings on Panjiayuan-The Northern School Tomb Raider’s Notes

“Get up and eat!”

In the morning I was woken up by Xuan’s loud voice.

I had outrageous dreams last night, and I didn’t drift off to sleep again until the latter part of the night, and in the morning I ate hot soaked naan with some pickles.

“Budgie, how did you do on the task you were given last night, did you get an inventory of your stuff?” Handlehead asked as he carried the rice bowl.

“Well, ah,” said Bean Sprout Boy, pointing at the camel with his chopsticks, “it’s all counted and bundled up, sixteen copper flat pots, dozens of copper coins, and a big bag of miscellaneous copper pieces of who knows what.”

Bean Sprout Boy asked, “Are our copper miscellaneous pieces still out to Surname Liu?”

The head of the handle nodded and said yes, out to give the convenience of the surname Liu, who has a lot of downlines in Panjiayuan.

Copper miscellaneous pieces of the price is not high, but the amount of good out, we mainly sell to wholesalers, wholesalers in the dispersal of the local antique market in various first and second-tier cities, customers may not know what they are buying, depending on the seller’s mouth, some will say: “I’m this fast iron piece is a good thing, it used to be a temple pad incense burners with incense burner pads, the bell is also good, is a former war horse hanging on the neck, the bell is also good, it’s a former war horse hanging on the neck. It is the former war horses hanging from the neck during the war.

A copper miscellaneous pieces dozens into selling hundreds, the cost of small all by fooling around, just waiting for laymen to act as experts on the set of two hundred and five.”

The last time I mentioned that Liu Yuanning, he is the king of Panjiayuan miscellaneous pieces, now this person is more than 60 years old got a stroke, walking are slanting walk, eating can not hold the bowl.

But I know he has a nephew, his nephew is not tall and relatively thin, every half month on Saturday will go to Panjiayuan day stalls, small hobby of this area can go to find this person, he was carrying a black duffel bag, the stalls on the steam bubble film and newspapers, the location is probably in the West stalls in the open-air area of the 3 rows of between No. 30 and No. 40, between the regional accent of Jiangxi.

He sold copper miscellaneous pieces of copper money all real goods, basically all the old customers to buy, I estimate that the kid is not likely to be stolen from Liu Yuanning treasury, such as a friend who wants to buy a set of five emperor money to put the home town feng shui can go to find him, to buy is certainly true, a set of five about 650 dollars or so it.

Ordinary genuine five emperors money a set of this price, did not think so expensive, mainly expensive in the Yongzheng Tongbao and Shunzhi Tongbao, I estimate that Liu Yuanning there how to have a thousand sets.

A busy few days, this morning bean sprouts proposed a half-day break, the head agreed, after dinner we sit a piece of gossip, I and the head because Panjiayuan acquaintance, chatting about Panjiayuan, the head of the Panjiayuan, the head of the Panjiayuan, the head of the Panjiayuan, the head of the Panjiayuan, the head of the Panjiayuan.

There’s something I don’t want to get off my chest about the current Panhandle.

Now the Panjia Yuan sellers are divided into four gangs plus the dumpster retailers, the four gangs are Jiangxi Gang, Fujian Gang, Henan Gang, Xinjiang Gang.

Fujian gang to Jingdezhen as the center mainly sells high imitation porcelain, valuable varieties they are imitation, like pastel, doucai, five colors, enamel, red and green color, light reddish color, red glaze, monochrome glaze in the sacrifice of blue, cowpea red, peacock green, rouge water, coral red, lemon yellow, sprinkle blue. Celadon porcelain imitation that is more, outside can see the national treasure porcelain can be found in Panjiayuan exactly the same, Jingdezhen those who do fake master is really criminal.
