Entertainment World: The Wild God of Gourmet

This is a market that specializes in selling various African or European antiques and some folk trinkets in Morocco. It is only separated from the square by a wall, but it is like two worlds. The plaza was bustling with noise, but when walking into the alleys, the decibels dropped immediately.

Looking head-on, I immediately felt a subversive atmosphere rushing towards my face.

There are all kinds of cheap and good African clothing, second-hand small furniture, antiques, various collectibles, even music records and instruments, ethnic art, carpets and so on.

Chen Ergou stopped and stopped all the way, giving him the feeling that it is similar to those small antique markets in China. The quality of the goods is uneven, the prices are relatively low, and the price can be bargained, so that it is possible to pick up the missing places .

There are a lot of people in the market, bustling, people coming and going, black, yellow, white people of all colors are readily available, it looks very lively. But it was not as loud as in the square, and they seemed to lower their voices in unison.

A few palm trees dot the streetscape, the stalls that buy antiques are usually placed here, and some stalls selling snacks are also mixed in the middle.

The small stalls here are different from those roadside stalls in the open air in China. The layout is more formal and tidy. The stall owner will build a decent small shed. Simple containers and shelves will be placed in a formal manner, and the products for sale will be neatly classified.

Many tourists come here especially to find their favorite treasures in the market, from young and fashionable goods to grandmother-level handmade sheepskin books, and experience a challenge of bargaining that has never been done before; even if you are not a consumer, you can be a spectator. Well, nibbling fresh sugar cane, touching the hand-woven camel hair carpet, and like an archaeologist, holding a magnifying glass while appraising coins from half a century ago.

Chen Ergou is not interested in picking up leaks from Taobao. In such a crowded tourist attraction, he can feel at ease as a tourist and don't even think about Taobao, otherwise the possibility of being fooled is more than 90%.

If you just want to buy some souvenirs, that's fine.

As he walked, he said, "I won't take everyone in those shops selling antiques. Tourists who are really knowledgeable will only choose a few things when they come to Morocco: such as this sun disc..."

Stopping in front of a colorful colored ceramic booth, the camera pointed at the exquisitely decorated ceramic plates on the shelf, and said: "Morocco is a country full of colors. The buildings, clothing and spices here are all colorful. And The colorful Moroccan painted pottery dishes are the condensed colors of this country. ... Well, these are the famous Moroccan sun dishes."

The colorful colors give the illusion of looking at the ceiling of the church. This is also due to the culture of the African people who admire the sun. The various patterns are extremely symmetrical and look very beautiful.

But Chen Ergou's attitude was not enthusiastic.

Another meaning of the English word "China" is ceramics. Pottery is a Chinese invention. As a native Chinese, it is natural to maintain a proud attitude towards foreign pottery.

Walking all the way, when he came to the silverware workshop, his enthusiasm immediately increased, saying: "Moroccan craftsmen have always been adhering to the traditional exquisite craftsmanship to make silverware, and they are very good at carving finely on silverware." .”

Under the lens, a piece of silvery hollowed-out artwork is full of the style of the Moroccan court. It's a pity that good things are not cheap, and he doesn't have a collection habit, so he doesn't buy them.

There are also woodwork carved from walnut. The octagonal wooden table is made by digging grooves first, and then inlaid with shells. The trays, glasses and table lamps placed on it are all typical Moroccan styles.

The final Moroccan leather products are known to everyone on earth.

"The leather products in Morocco still use the world's oldest hand-dyed dyeing vat, the ancient city of Fez, a world cultural heritage,

I have never been to. I heard that dye vats can be seen everywhere in the whole city, and there are many animal furs hanging on the walls, which is very historical, but the smell is a little..." Suddenly chuckled, and said: "'notorious'. "

The audience watched with gusto, and listening to his rambling explanations was more interesting than watching TV.

But Chen Ergou was a little tired after walking for a day. It's not too early in China, and just as I was about to end today's live broadcast, a booth in front of me, surrounded by several people, suddenly shouted. He walked over curiously, and a white man dressed as a pirate was trying his best to sell his items to several tourists.

When Chen Ergou saw that it was an antique, his interest immediately dropped. He glanced hurriedly and was about to leave, but an object suddenly came into view, which made him gasp slightly. I have some doubts in my heart.

Squeeze through. The stall owner is a European, speaking in broken French, he is selling his little things to tourists.

He has a good eye. Seeing Chen Ergou squatting down to look at the people around him, he immediately introduced enthusiastically, "My friend, if you like it, take a good look. This is a genuine pirate item. My grandfather is a Belgian captain. At that time, I followed the king’s order to go to Africa to dig diamond mines. I met many big pirates on the sea. These were the spoils of war. If the family business hadn’t gone bankrupt due to the stock market crash, even my apartment in Morocco would have been sold. would be reduced to running to Morocco to sell these things."

Chen Ergou smiled, noncommittal, and really checked it carefully.

Teeth inlaid with precious stones, gold coins with various patterns, pirate hats, Caribbean sailor's knives, sword guards, compasses, captain's diaries, etc., there are so many things. However, even if he doesn't understand archaeological research, he can tell at a glance that most of them are imitated by modern technology.

He was still watching, and someone nearby had already made a deal.

A middle-aged Indian couple fell in love with a silver coffee pot. In a strong Victorian style, it seems to be the real thing. After some intense bargaining, it was finally settled at 300 Euros, which is not cheap.

The boss has just made a deal, and he is in a good mood, "My friend, there are some you like. If you have one, I will pick one and sell it to you at a cheap price."

Chen Ergou stood up feigning disappointment, clapped his hands and said, "Unfortunately, there is no one I like. I want to buy a real pirate machete, but unfortunately they are all modern imitations, fakes..."

"Handsome, don't talk nonsense, how could it be a modern textile. Look at this knife, it was cut on the bone and stained with blood for many years. There is also this pirate hat, which is the first officer's hat..." Such a disrespectful This is the first time I met a guest today. If he hadn't seen the high value of the watch Chen Ergou was wearing, he would have gone mad and chased people away.

Chen Ergou smiled slightly, and was about to leave, when suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Hey, don't you have a pirate knife on your waist, it seems quite unique, can you show me it?"

"This one?"

The boss hesitated for a moment, but he still untied it, and said with a smile on his face again: "Haha, my friend, I'm right, I knew you would like it. Be careful, this knife is my knife. One of the most cherished collections."

He took the scimitar, lightly touched the scabbard of the scimitar, pulled out the scimitar with a clang, and almost dazzled the boss' eyes with two knives. Do pirates need to use machetes when sailing and fighting on the sea? He doesn't know much.

The knife face is shining coldly, with ancient decorations, it does not seem to be a modern smelting process on the surface, "How much is it?"

The boss narrowed his eyes and said enthusiastically: "Don't worry my friend, I am the most practical in business. How about this, since you like this machete so much, I will transfer it to you for 5,000 euros, as a friend of yours. "

When Chen Ergou heard the price, and then looked at the bearded and sincere face of the Belgian bankrupt, he really wanted to spit on his face.

He didn't understand antiques, but he was no stranger to weapons. As soon as he got his hands on this knife, he knew it was not a famous weapon. Even in some years, it is at most an ordinary knife. The value of an antique depends on who has used it. There is no cultural background, and it is not a famous pirate saber. There is not even a gem on it, so how could it be worth so much money.

This guy actually asks for five thousand euros per mouth. Doesn't he regard himself as a winner?

However, this place is a market, and it is one of the few places where you can ask for a lot of money and pay back the money. Based on the principle of cutting to death, Chen Ergou gave a counter-offer of 100 euros.

After hearing this outrageous bargain, the Belgian was not angry, but his head was like a rattle: "4500."

This guy lowered the price by 500 in one bite, which means that he lied about the price before and asked for too much. Seeing that Chen Ergou really wanted to buy it, he began to actively lower the price so that the price could get closer to the psychological expectations on both sides as soon as possible.

So Chen Ergou directly offered a counter-offer of 200, and the two sides bargained fiercely.

Finally, under the expression of the Belgian who is about to cry, it was sold at a price of 600 euros.

And when the stall owner got the 600 euros in cash from Chen Ergou, the constipated expression on his face had long since disappeared. Instead, he smiled like a wrinkled chrysanthemum. He was indeed a wealthy Chinese man. I love doing business with people like this.

I like to give cash directly when I buy everything. This is good, and it also saves me a lot of tax money.

The stall owner was very happy, and Chen Ergou was also very happy, he didn't show it, put away the machete, turned around and left.

It was getting late in China, and the sleepy viewers all went to bed, and their popularity dropped to over 8 million. They couldn't understand French just now, but now they saw that Chen Ergou bought another machete, they all shouted with great interest to take it out to have a look.

Chen Ergou didn't hide his treasures, and pulled out the knife with a swipe. It was indeed a good knife with a cold light. But he turned a blind eye to the knife, instead staring at the leather case with puzzled eyes, "It's not this knife that I'm really looking for, although it's old, it's worthless in my eyes. It is far worse than my jungle knife, and I will definitely not be able to hold the jungle knife and slash at will. The real value is this knife set..."
