I Can Extract Abilities From Antiques

Starting the car, Hu Muzhi drove towards the destination.

As the car stopped, Xia Heze looked out the window and asked suspiciously, "Muzhi, why did you bring me to this big market at this time?"

This place where Hu Muzhi came is located outside the Desheng Gate of the capital.

It also has a very special name: Xiaoshi.

Unlike the ghost market that only opens at night, the market here is closed when the sun rises.

So although it is a market, this time, there are no people here.

"There is a hardwood furniture store that has been in business for more than ten years. The antique shops in Sijiucheng basically come here if they want to buy hardwood furniture."

"The boss is in his fifties, his surname is Xie, and he is the fourth oldest in the family, so people in the circle respect him as the fourth master of Xie, have you heard of it?" Hu Muzhi asked.

In the realm of the capital, "Ye" means respect for elders and honor, so bringing a master behind it represents respect for this person.

Of course, there are exceptions.

For example, 'Buddha' is the name for thieves, 'Daoye' is the name for people who buy and sell things, and Kanye, Baner, etc.

"Xie Fourth Master?" Xia Heze muttered to himself, and began to search for this person's information in his mind, however, there was no such person.

Looking at Xia Heze's dull expression, Hu Muzhi understood that Xia Heze must not know this person.

In fact, Hu Muzhi also knew Xie Siye based on the memory in his mind.

Back then, when 'he' was a student in the museum, he had come here with his master in the furniture group.

In fact, furniture, especially hardwood furniture, was a bleak business during this period.

Because this time, people are all looking for a full meal, so in the choice of furniture, it is the kind of simple style, low-cost cork furniture.

There is simply no spare cash for expensive hardwood furniture.

For example, in Liulichang, there are people who buy porcelain, some jade, and some calligraphy and painting, but there is no cultural relic store that sells hardwood furniture.

This is curios.

At different times, there will be changes with social and economic changes.

Although hardwood furniture is currently in recession, twenty years later, with the rapid development of the domestic economy, people's pursuit of life is getting higher and higher. to hundreds of millions.

This is the benefit of antique collecting.

Hu Muzhi got out of the car and led Xia Heze on foot in the market for about five minutes.

"It's here, that's it."

Xia Heze heard the words and looked up.

The location of the store in front of me is in the middle of the two fruit shops. There are three gilt characters on the black plaque: Linmufang.

If Hu Muzhi hadn't brought him here, Xia Heze would never have believed that there was actually a furniture store here.

But on second thought, it seems reasonable.

At this time, the trade in cultural relics has not been fully liberalized, and the storefront of Liulichang is ridiculously expensive. Where can a private person want to open an antique store?

That is of course the place with the most traffic.

And this market is the place with the most traffic.

Because no matter which dynasty or generation, the necessities of life are indispensable things for the common people.

Entering the store, Xia Heze found out that this Linmufang is absurdly small for a hardwood furniture store.

It is only about 20 square meters, and there are very few furniture in the store, all of which are small objects such as bracelets and wooden boxes.

Xia Heze has some doubts, is this really a hardwood furniture store that has been in business for more than ten years?

Inside the store, a clerk was trying his best to disassemble an old firewood stool.

Judging from its method, it should have just arrived a few days ago.

"It's too strong, isn't it? It can't be disassembled at all." The clerk gasped.

When Hu Muzhi heard the words, he reminded aloud: "Although this stool is connected by a tenon-and-mortise structure, there is still a layer of animal glue stuck on it. Try pouring a pot of boiling water on the connection."

As Hu Muzhi's voice fell, a loud voice sounded.

"Young people can, and they know about boiling water to melt glue."

Hu Muzhi heard the sound and saw that the person who was speaking was an old man of about fifty years old, wearing a Tang suit, of a short stature and a thin body.

This person is the boss of this forest workshop, Xie Si.

"Fourth Master Xie, hello." Hu Muzhi looked at Fourth Master Xie with a smile.

Hearing that Hu Muzhi could call out his name, Xie Si looked at Hu Muzhi, but had no impression at all, so he asked, "Who are you?"

"Hu Muzhi." Hu Muzhi replied, "Last year, my master, Mr. Chen Guisheng, brought me here and bought a lot of old materials."

Chen Guisheng is Hu Muzhi's teacher in the furniture group of the museum.

After Hu Muzhi's reminder, Fourth Master Xie showed a stunned expression and said, "So it's Master Chen's disciple."

"What's the matter with me?"

"I want to ask you to help me find a piece of old red sandalwood." Hu Muzhi said.

"What's the use?" Xie Si asked.

"Fix something." Hu Muzhi said, handing the backgammon board in his hand to the other party.

With just one glance, Xie Si saw the problem of the backgammon board.

"This enclosure is too rough, what kind of idiot who doesn't know how to do it?"

"I... I fixed it." Xia Heze said with an embarrassed expression.

"I'm sorry, when I didn't say it." Xie Si didn't expect that the Er Lengzi in his mouth was actually in front of him, so he quickly expressed his apology.
