Shen Xuan guessed that this fatty had snuck in, and it was indeed so.
However, Fatty was too good at bullshitting. He really couldn't stand it anymore and said," Alright, Fatty, don't blindly light the lamp here…" Before Shen Xuan could finish speaking, Fatty said angrily,""Who the f * ck are you calling fat…"
Before Fatty could finish his sentence, he saw Shen Xuan take off half of his mask to reveal a smile. Upon closer inspection, the man wearing the horse mask standing beside him had a slender middle finger and index finger. Fatty instantly understood and said in surprise,"Master Shen, Little Brother! Did the two of you also jump over the wall? Master Shen, you're not being honest. It's fine if you don't support me, but you're even trying to scare me.”
Shen Xuan chatted with Fatty for a while and asked him why he still sneaked in to cheat people. Didn't he get a lot of gold and silver treasures from the seabed tomb? According to his estimation, it was worth more than two million. Fatty was also a person who could bluff people. It shouldn't be a problem to sell it for three to four million. In addition, the Manasi Jade in the Lu Palace could be sold for more than three million, making a total of six to seven million. He was even richer than a tycoon. Why did he still come out to cheat money?
Fatty smiled awkwardly.”
"You spent it all?"
"Master Shen, even if you look down on me, I won't hide it from you. My home is in Jian An Village. The situation is similar to Honey Melting Village, which the Lu Royal Palace passes by, but there is no fighting. My parents have been very strict with me since I was young. They hope that I can get into university and leave the village. I was not born to study. At the age of fifteen, I had a fight with my family because I skipped class. I didn't go to school anymore. When I left the mountain, I swore to the heavens that I would earn money to buy a house for my parents to live in the city... I can't even find the corpse. I'll build Jian An Village into a city for my parents to live in.”
Shen Xuan understood what he meant. It seemed that this fatty had personally funded the construction of a house for his parents in a large rural village with inconvenient transportation!
It was not difficult to build a building, nor was it difficult to build a road. One could imagine how much effort was needed to build roads and buildings in a village like Huami Village. Even the locals could not do anything to build roads and buildings in the countryside, but Fatty was burning money because of a sentence from his youth. This probably required more than money!
Shen Xuan patted Fatty's shoulder heavily and said,""Good job."
Fatty chuckled." Let's not talk about unhappy things. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Shall we go shopping together? Let's go!"
His stall didn't accept any more. The things were bought for dozens of yuan, and the cost of the things added together was only more than 500 yuan. He reckoned that no one would take them even if he left them. Fatty really thought that the people in the ghost market were ordinary people. He was really broad-minded.
When the two of them were talking, the girl wearing the Dong Shi mask heard them clearly!
Shen Xuan regretted talking to Fatty. This fatty had been introducing this and that all along the way. Not to mention, his introduction was even systematic.
"Master Shen, do you know the origin of this ghost market?”
During the Qing Dynasty, there were natural and man-made disasters in this Jingu Ghost Market. The victims came to Tianjin to find a way to survive. This street was originally a porridge place, and thousands of people were burned to death. The number of victims increased, and this place became a place to sell old goods. At that time, there were no new items sold. Because it was sold at night, the old shoes were brushed with ink, and the broken cotton clothes were folded and sold. This was what " ghosts " meant.
After the arrival of the new dynasty, the ghost market declined. It was not until Lord Zeng took over the New Moon Hotel and ran the ghost market that it was developed.
The candles were lit in the southeast corner because Lord Zeng's connections were all from the Dao Dou faction. These people here were all from the Dao Dou faction, so it was somewhat strange. If the candles were lit in the southeast corner, as long as the candles were not extinguished, they could be bought. If the candle was extinguished, it could not be bought. This proved that it already had an owner. It would attract unclean things, and the person had to leave quickly. This was an unwritten rule in the ghost market.
Just as Fatty had said, all the candles in front of the stalls were facing the southeast corner.
The use of white candles meant that it was a red wedding and a white funeral. This was the culture left behind by the ancestors thousands of years ago. Wedding was red wax, but netherworld marriages used white wax.
As they walked in, the ghost goods began to become more exquisite. Some stall owners even brought tables and placed the ghost goods on the tables. Shen Xuan saw two bronze seals the size of fingers. The top of the seal was engraved with a dragon. The two golden seals were identical and were covered by a tempered glass cover. They looked very precious.
Many people gathered in front of the golden seal to look at it. The golden seal was used by ancient emperors and ministers in the imperial palace to seal official documents. It was more collectible and wouldn't lose its value. It was very popular among stubborn masters.
There was a young man in the dress. He was wearing a neat and meticulous Armani suit. His leather shoes were polished and he wore a judge's mask. He was very eye-catching in the crowd.
Shen Xuan remembered Xu Yuan mentioning that the person who had picked up an item worth a million at Penglai Street was this person, Yao Burang. He was the young master of the Yao family who was in charge of porcelain in the five branches.”
After picking up a bunch of lotus plates, this guy wore an Armani suit and went around flaunting his antique knowledge. He indirectly used his professional knowledge to mock those who had made a mistake and bought a fake. It was fine if he scolded them, but this guy didn't even tell them where he had made a mistake. It was purely to highlight his professional knowledge. It was as if he wanted everyone on Gujin Antique Street to know that he, Young Master Yao, was here.
The little brother found this official seal interesting and played with it in his hand.
The little brother might think that this seal was similar to the hair mound seal, and that was what Fatty thought.
Wu Xie was wandering around the ghost market. After he returned to Mount Wu Residence, he went to his third uncle's shop and old house. His third uncle was not there, so he was bored in the shop. Coincidentally, he was sent by his grandfather to participate in the ghost market organized by Lord Zeng.
Grandpa had instructed him not to show his face. If he didn't go to the invitation sent by Lord Zeng, it would be disrespectful to Lord Zeng. Grandpa didn't expect him to show his face and win glory for Wujia. It was enough for him to just go through the motions.
When Wu Xie was strolling around, he felt that everyone looked like a little brother. When he saw people, he subconsciously looked at their index fingers. Suddenly, he saw a person standing in the skirt. His index finger was obviously longer than ordinary people. He went forward and grabbed the little brother's hand, shouting excitedly,"It really is your little brother!"
The young man felt his hand being caught off guard. His whole body quivered as if he had been electrocuted. The Hornless Tiger Seal button in his hand fell to the ground with a "pa da" sound. The seal fell to the ground, and the corner of the seal was broken, revealing a narrow gap.
