At the end of October, the daytime temperature in Chengdu was around 20 degrees Celsius. Compared to the world of ice and snow in the Plane of Drawing Swords, this place made Qiao Guoqiang feel much more comfortable.
Back then, the crew of 'Drawing Swords' was so poor that all the scenes were filmed in winter. There were a few minor characters who appeared in the movie, such as the chubby soldier and the Japanese soldier who played the role of a cavalry officer.
Teacher Li Youbing even acted as a bandit who killed a monk, haha!
However, since the TV series had become a plane, he had to conform to the rules of the world. The change of the four seasons was a must.
The next time Qiao Guoqiang went over, it would probably be spring plowing.
After taking a shower, Qiao Guoqiang went downstairs to a restaurant and ordered some Spicy Boiled Fish to satisfy his stomach. He then drove to the Songxianqiao Antique Market next to the Provincial Museum.
Songxian Bridge was located on the bank of the river. To the east was the affiliated hospital of the Provincial Medical University, to the west was the Institute of Electric Power Technology, and across the river was the Provincial Museum. As for the north side, it was the family courtyard of the medical school.
Qiao Guoqiang came to this place often. He would come once a week during the tourist season, and every time he came, he would bring him an income ranging from 3,000 to 20,000 yuan.
There was nothing he could do. The tourists were too enthusiastic. Those gauls who claimed to be from the capital of art would pay a few hundred euros for any embroidery. The Japanese were more influenced by the Han culture. They had no resistance to facial masks, landscape paintings, and bamboo products. This antique market was the largest in the southwest. It was said that its scale and trading volume were the third largest in the country. Its status in Chengdu was equivalent to that of Panjiayuan in the capital.
And those Americans, after all, it was a country established by immigrants and did not have any historical background. In addition, the people of that country were born with geographical ignorance and felt that everything was new. Those who could come to travel were more willing to pay.
The people on the northeast side of the island were the lowest. Wherever they went, they would make a fuss. It could be said that they were the most uncultured group of people! Almost all the tour guides didn't like tourists from the Peninsula!
After entering the market, Qiao Guoqiang ignored the signboards that said " high price for the third edition of yuan coins " and " high price for stamps ". He went straight to the antique shop that he was familiar with," Fu Yuan Collection ".
After entering, he saw a bald man in a linen tunic suit pretending to make kung fu tea. A rich woman was sitting opposite him and talking to him.
"Welcome!" The electronic voice rang out, and the bald man raised his head.
"Yo! Brother Qiao!" The bald man stood up and greeted," What's wrong? Is there a group?"
"No!" Qiao Guoqiang walked over and shook hands with the other party, saying," I've resigned. I won't lead a tour group anymore!”
"Ah!"
"President Yao!" The woman next to him asked the bald man," This is?”
" Oh, this is my friend Qiao Guoqiang," the bald man said." He's a tour guide and has pulled in a lot of business for me!”
"So it's Mr. Qiao! My name is Zhao Xiuping, please take care of me." The woman was not beautiful, but her skin was clean. Her height of 1.58 meters was normal for a forty-year-old. In addition, she also had a bit of the experience of a business woman. However, his hay-like hair made him look bad. Qiao Guoqiang couldn't help but feel bad for him.
"Hello, Sis!" As a tour guide, as long as a woman was older than him, as long as she did not bring her grandson along, she would not call him "Sister!"”
"Hello!" The other party said,"Let's have tea together!"
"Alright!" Qiao Guoqiang sat down and watched Yao Jun pour him a cup of Xianglong tea.
"Brother Qiao." Yao Jun said," I was talking to your Sister Zhao just now. She's planning to sign up for a group trip for her family. Where do you think we should go?"”
"Family?" Qiao Guoqiang asked,"Old or young?"”
Zhao Xiuping said," Old man, about 70 years old!”
"Then don't go to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. To put it bluntly, it was a barren mountain and a harsh river. It was also a test for the old man's physical strength and health. It's more of a test for the tour guide." Qiao Guoqiang said," Don't go abroad either. He's a 70-year-old from the same hometown. He probably can't even speak Mandarin, let alone foreign languages. The most worrying thing was that many people didn't like to study. They didn't like what the tour guide said and went abroad to do things that would embarrass the country!”
"Let's go to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. We'll take a high-speed rail ride and take a look at the Three Gorge Dam. Then, we'll go to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and the Jinling Yangtze River Bridge. Then, we'll go to Shanghai to see the Oriental Pearl Tower and the Wusong Fortress. If they had a higher political awareness, they could visit the Jinling Massacre Memorial Hall. If they were more cultured, they could visit the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. If they were from the working class, they would go and see the Zhenhua Heavy Industry's dock and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal!”
"Now that you've said it, I have some idea.”Zhao Xiuping said. "My parents are old and have never left the county town in their entire life. I want them to go out for a walk so that I can fulfill my filial piety. It was not to the extent that she had stayed in the countryside for the rest of her life and had never even left the province.”
"He's a tour guide after all!" Yao Jun said,"This plan came out of nowhere."”
"Hey!" Qiao Guoqiang said," It's all the experience I've gained over the past three years. There were many places that old men and old women could not go to if they did not have enough physical strength. It would be fine if they came out on their own, as they probably had more travel experience than you. However, if they encountered a group that their children helped to sign up for, it would be troublesome.”
"Why?" Zhao Xiuping asked.
"That kind of person usually has suffered before.”Qiao Guoqiang said," Usually, their children are working or doing business outside. When their financial conditions are good, let them go out and have fun. However, this kind of person was used to living a poor life. He was overcautious when spending money. He had to think twice before going to a public toilet that cost one yuan. "However, this kind of person likes to take advantage of others. After entering other people's hotels, he likes to take other people's things. Every time, he will cause trouble for us tour guides.”
"Eating at a buffet is the same as the Liscia refugees. If you can't finish it, you have to take it away.”
"The most worrying thing is that these guys are obviously country bumpkins from the countryside, but they still have to pretend to be elders in front of the tour guide. He always caused the tour guide to be at a loss whether to laugh or cry!”
Qiao Guoqiang kept shaking his head. "Anyway, I don't like to lead senior citizens. It's troublesome!”
"Hey, you're right." Zhao Xiuping said," Traveling in the city also has the advantage of providing timely rescue and medical treatment if you encounter any problems.”
"Yes, this is very important!" Yao Jun agreed.
"Right! Yao Guo." Qiao Guoqiang put his bag in front of him and said,"I'm here to sell something."”
"What is it?"
"Big Yellow Croaker from the Republic of China, from Yan Laoxi.”Qiao Guoqiang opened his bag and placed a large yellow croaker on the table.
Yao Jun weighed the weight of the gold bar, then walked to the side. He took out an instrument from under the counter and scanned the gold bar. "The gold content is 99.57, which is the standard of the Republic of China.”
Looking at the number " 312.5 " on the electronic scale, Yao Jun said," How about 240,000 yuan for one?”
"Yes!" Qiao Guoqiang nodded. It was already more than 30,000 dollars.
