    "Let's go and have a look."

    At this time, Yu Feibai also felt a bit strange and immediately called Wang Guan into the imperial street.  After passing the big archway, there is a simple and elegant attic. Judging from the name of the sign, it is Fan Tower.

    At this time, Yu Feibai winked and said, "I know Master Li lives here."

    "Thousands of years ago, it must have been inside. As for now, I don't know where the ghost is floating." Wang Guan said angrily: "Let's go, there is an antique shop in front, go and have a look."

    There are many antique shops along the way, but there are even more handicraft shops, especially those selling Bian embroidery, which attract many tourists to watch.  Thin needles and threads are embroidered in the hands of skilled craftsmen to look like real scenes, and world-famous oil paintings and ancient Chinese paintings are embroidered to life.

    The most famous one is, of course, Zhang Zeduan's "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". When completed with fine silk threads, it gives people infinite emotion.  Such a long and large scroll with exquisite embroidery naturally attracts many people to buy it back at a high price. Whether it is a collection or placed in the living room as a symbol of wealth, luck and elegance, it is very meaningful.

    ¡°I¡¯ll buy a few pictures later.¡±

    At the right time, Yu Feibai said with a smile: "Then I will give it to you as a wedding gift."

    "mean!"

    Wang Guan is naturally very contemptuous.

    "How can one say that someone's embroidery is so good, majestic and vivid, how can one call it stingy?"

    Knowing that Yu Feibai was deliberately confusing the audience, Wang Guan didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked a few steps faster. In front of him was a relatively large antique shop.

    Speaking of which, Wang Guan hasn¡¯t visited an antique store for a while.  After all, he was always running around here and there for the tour of treasure exhibitions and Mr. Zhu Da's affairs some time ago.  Naturally, I was so busy that I didn¡¯t even have time to go shopping.

    As for now, it¡¯s just taking a break from the busy schedule, or trying my luck.

    ¡°After all, Meng Jian only revealed the name of Kaifeng, which means there must be some clues in Kaifeng.  Maybe this is one of the three burrows of Mr. Zhu Da's cunning rabbit, but without definite information, I have no choice but to wander around like a headless fly, hoping to find something.

    At this time, the two walked into the antique shop and glanced at it.  I saw that the items sold in the store were quite complicated.  There are ceramic bottles, calligraphy and painting works, and the Four Treasures of the Study.  There are even a few oil paintings.

    How can I say these things? They are so fake.  After taking one look, Wang Guan couldn't help but shake his head. This was not an antique, it was clearly a modern handicraft.  But considering this is an antique commercial street.  Wang Guan can understand.  After all, a place with a strong commercial element is bound to be a mixed bag, with many fakes and few genuine products.

    "Two young brothers."

    Right here, the shop owner walked over enthusiastically and said with a smile on his face: "What do you like?"

    "look in."

    At the right time.  Yu Feibai said casually: "Boss, the things you have here don't seem to be very good."

    "Brother, let's see what you said." The shop owner must have been a little unhappy when he heard this: "Tell me, what's wrong with these things? These are all good things, genuine treasures."

    "Really?" Yu Feibai smiled and had no intention of refuting.  Instead, he asked directly: "Do you have a firewood kiln here?"

    "Chai kiln?"

    The shop owner was startled, then nodded and said: "Yes!"

    While speaking.  The shopkeeper actually walked back to the counter and put out a porcelain bottle.

    "Is it really a firewood kiln?"

    For a moment, both Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were a little surprised.

    "Of course it's a firewood kiln, it's definitely a firewood kiln. If not, I'll pay you ten for the fake one." The shopkeeper patted his chest and said with an affirmative expression on his face, which made the two of them come over to watch with doubts.

    At first glance, the porcelain bottle is extremely bright, exuding a clear and elegant color. It is indeed very beautiful.  However, the light inside is very dazzling and lacks the most basic warm luster of antique porcelain.  So after taking a quick look at it, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai couldn't help but frown. This was no wood kiln. It was clearly newly made porcelain.

    ¡°Boss, are you kidding us?¡±

    At the right time, Yu Feibai directly expressed his dissatisfaction: "We are not blind. If this is a firewood kiln, and a piece of firewood is worth a thousand pieces of firewood kiln porcelain, then I will eat it directly."

    ¡°It¡¯s really a firewood kiln.¡±

    At this time, the shop owner showed a sly look in his eyes: "However, it is definitely not an ancient firewood kiln."?It is a variety reproduced by masters in our province. It is a very exquisite handicraft and represents the image of Kaifeng"

    "It's as expected." When the two heard this, they immediately understood.  The shop owner is not dark-hearted, nor is he thick-skinned enough to open his eyes and tell lies.

    Although they have never been to Kaifeng before, the two of them have indeed heard that someone in Henan Province is trying to restore the firewood kiln.  However, due to the lack of intuitive comparison, it is not clear to everyone how similar the things fired are to the legendary firewood kiln.

    However, it is undeniable that the "wood kiln" porcelain carefully fired with modern technology has even been recognized by experts in the province through the National Patent Office, which is enough to prove that this kind of "firewood kiln" porcelain must have some skills.  At least it can be confirmed that the level of this kind of handicraft is not low and the quality is guaranteed.

    Since the shop owner said it was okay, the two of them were disappointed and carefully looked at the porcelain bottles on the table.

    The firewood kilns of the Five Dynasties period were said to be as green as the sky, as bright as a mirror, as thin as paper, and as loud as a chime.  Green as the sky, that refers to the glaze color.  Legend has it that when Chai Rong, Emperor Shizong of Zhou, came to the throne, it was customary to burn a batch of porcelain as tribute vessels. The people below did not know Chai Rong's preferences, so they asked him for instructions on what specifications and colors the porcelain needed to be fired into.

    Chai Rong was also very elegant. He gave a direct instruction: after the rain, the sky and blue clouds break the virginity, and the color of the person indicates the future.  The ancient one is the modern one, which means to make porcelain according to the color of the sky after it rains.

    This is the origin of Qing Ru Tian, ??while Ming Ru Jing refers to the brightness of Chai Kiln porcelain, which is like a mirror, very clear and can clearly reflect the scenery.

    As for being as thin as paper and sounding like a chime, of course it refers to the thickness of the carcass and its tightness.  After all, only the fetus is tight.  Only then can a bell-like sound come out.

    ¡°Obviously, the characteristics of the porcelain vase in front of me are basically consistent with the legendary firewood kiln. It¡¯s no wonder that the shop owner dared to take it out confidently.  Putting aside everything else, purely from the perspective of handicrafts, the things are indeed good and have a certain value.  If bought back, it can not only be used as an ornamental object, but also a good antique if it can be collected for a hundred or two hundred years.

    "The premise is that I can live to be two hundred years old." Yu Feibai muttered, then shook his head and said: "Boss, don't fool people with this. We want to buy real wood-fired porcelain."

    ¡°Brother, it¡¯s not just you who want it.¡±

    At this time, the store manager said with a smile: "You can go out and ask who doesn't want it? But there are some things that you don't necessarily have if you want them. If you can't buy the real thing, it's good to get a substitute."

    The last sentence betrayed the shop owner¡¯s intentions, and he was still working hard to sell the porcelain bottle.

    ¡°Forget it as a substitute.¡± Yu Feibai shook his head and said, ¡°I bought a lot of them, and the house is full of them.¡±

    "That's it." The shopkeeper thought for a while and carefully took the porcelain bottle back.  Then he took out another scroll: "Brother, in Kaifeng, we not only have firewood kilns. There are also many rare things, such as this picture of Along the River During the Qingming Festival"

    Hearing this, Yu Feibai turned around and left without saying a word or even saying hello.

    "I'm sorry. Something happened suddenly" Wang Guan smiled and said something special.  He also followed suit.

    As soon as I went out, I heard Yu Feibai complaining in a low voice: "Is this an antique shop or an antique antique shop?"

    "It doesn't matter what kind of store it is." Wang Guan said casually: "Didn't you come here after shouting? Besides, the shop owner is quite kind. At least it means that the things are handicrafts."

    "Nonsense, it's a firewood kiln and a picture of Riverside Scene during the Qingming Festival. Who doesn't know it's a handicraft?" Yu Feibai snorted: "Whoever takes it seriously is a real fool."

    "Okay, don't complain." Wang Guan shook his head and said: "Actually, the shop owner is right. You are not the only one looking for a firewood kiln in the world. If you can find it casually, it will not be a legendary thing.  "

    "That's right." Yu Feibai immediately became excited again: "Let's go on and continue shopping. I don't expect to find the firewood kiln all at once, but there may be other good things."

    Facts have proved that Yu Feibai¡¯s words are indeed somewhat effective.  After walking around Songdu Royal Street, they really didn't find a firewood kiln, but the two of them also found a few nice gadgets.

    It¡¯s really just a gadget. The best thing is an old fan bone from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.

    An elegant plum blossom is carved on the fan bone, which is quite unique.  The store owner knew that this was an antique, so he directly offered the price of 10,000 yuan. After some haggling, the deal was settled for 3,000 yuan.  Fan bones can also be considered a niche collection. Although there is room for appreciation, 3,000 yuan is still enough.

    However, after Yu Feibai paid the money, he was a little happy.  Because the material of the fan bone is unusual,Not ordinary bamboo, but boxwood.  The shop owner couldn't recognize it and thought it was ordinary bamboo wood. He only counted the age and ignored the material, but Yu Feibai picked it up.

    Yu Feibai must be very happy about this.  As soon as he was happy, he immediately called for a treat, and then took Wang Guan to the most luxurious restaurant in Kaifeng to have a feast and drink. The money he spent was several times what he had spent, so he obviously couldn't make ends meet.

    However, for a rich man like Yu Feibai, this is a normal situation.  One code equals the other, picking up the missing items is picking up the missing items, but eating, drinking and having fun are separate calculations and cannot be confused together.

    No matter what, the first day after arriving in Kaifeng passed like this.  There were no surprises, no big surprises. It was just normal and expected.

    After a night of silence, Wang Guan woke up Yu Feibai who was still sleeping in the next morning. After washing up, he had breakfast at a nearby teahouse, eating Kaifeng's delicious soup dumplings.  After eating the hot soup, the two of them immediately felt their bodies warm and their spirits lifted.

    "What should we do next?"

    At this time, Yu Feibai asked: "Continue to play, or are you looking for it like a headless fly?"
