Sourness

Before going to bed, Mi Yue checked the map with her mobile phone for a long time, but when she woke up after a nap, the planned travel routes in her mind became a mess again.

Mi Yue thinks that living in the city is not good.Where to go, you can take route A, or route B. If you don’t like it, there are C, D... various routes. If you have difficulty choosing, you can’t go out at all.

It's not like they live on the mountain, so they don't have to think about it at all, because there is one way up the mountain, and the same way down the mountain...

While eating breakfast, Mi Yue worried about the cobweb-like map of the city, and finally followed Aunt Zhang's suggestion, and took a bus from the bus stop at the gate of the community to a place called the terminus, and then took a taxi from there to the ancient cultural market.

Aunt Zhang felt that such an arrangement should be the most convenient for a road idiot like Mi Yue.

When Qin Zhao heard that he was going out, he offered to drive him for a while.But Miyue felt that this was too troublesome, so she politely refused.

Qin Zhao was not familiar with Mi Yue, so he didn't quite understand whether his refusal was out of politeness, or because he was used to it. He didn't like being disturbed, so he didn't force him anymore. He just added contact information to each other, and told him to contact him whenever he needed something. Or his grandpa called.

Mi Yue comforted the two furries at home, and went out by herself.

On a sunny day, the air is filled with the warm and fragrant smell of spring.

The branches and leaves of crabapple trees on the side of the road are stretched out, and dots of flower buds stick out from among the green leaves.Look carefully, pink and white flowers are already blooming on the branches.

After walking out of the community, Mi Yue noticed that there were crabapple trees planted on both sides of the road.I don't know how many years these crabapple trees have grown here, but at a glance, the thinnest trunk is thicker than his thigh, the canopy is tall and dense, and there are little flower buds dotted between layers of green shade.

One or two crabapple trees full of flower buds will give people a beautiful feeling, but when they grow into a forest, they will make people feel magnificent, and the beauty is a bit shocking.

It was the first time for Mi Yue to see such a large-scale crabapple grove. Thinking of the cobweb-like city map he saw on his phone just now, his impression of the city also changed unconsciously.

There are a lot of people, a lot of cars, far away from the mountains, noisy day and night.But there's also breathtaking beauty here, and it's not just steel and concrete and car exhaust.

Miyue felt a little ashamed of her prejudice against the city.

An hour later, Miyue was dropped by the taxi driver at the intersection of Ancient Culture Street.

At this time, Mi Yue was completely lost, and only vaguely remembered that the Qin family's residential area seemed to be on the east side of the city, while the Ancient Culture Street was located on the south side of the city.

Mi Yue's impression of the "city" that had just gotten better changed again after getting off the car.

The road is very wide and the road surface is flat. It can be seen that it has not been repaired for a long time. The landscape stone engraved with "Ancient Culture Street" at the intersection is also new. In addition, the antique buildings on both sides of the sidewalk are also newly repaired.

The quaint streets full of history that he expected to appear were suddenly replaced by this artificial park-like thing, which filled him with disappointment, and even wondered if the taxi driver had gone to the wrong place.

It wasn't until a passer-by said that Binhai City was just such an ancient cultural street without a semicolon, that he reluctantly accepted this fact.

Fortunately, some ancient buildings with historical value have been preserved on the Ancient Culture Street, such as the Town God's Temple built in the early Qing Dynasty, and the mansion of a Tanhua Lang during the Qianlong period.Although I don't know whether it is true or not, but their existence proves that this street does have some cultural heritage.

Before Mi Yue came here, she thought that all the antique shops in Binhai City were located on this street, but after coming here, she found that there are at least a hundred shops on one street, and it is impossible for all of them to be in the antique business.In fact, compared with antique shops, there are more small restaurants, beverage shops, and handicraft shops.

Even so, Mi Yue felt that it would take two to three days to scan all the shops selling antiques.

Many people would choose this kind of inconspicuous shop for various reasons when reselling their collection of antiquities, or ask the appraiser in the shop to make an appraisal.

Although Wang Ying has worked with the archaeological team for a few months, he doesn't necessarily know how to trade antiques.Mi Yue guessed that he would first find someone to estimate the price of Fenghuang Qin, and then decide what to do next.

Valuation, the ancient culture street with mixed fish and dragons is naturally the most convenient choice.

First of all, the threshold is low, anyone can get in.Secondly, these business owners are all good people, and they will never ask about the origin of the collection.Another important reason is that people come and go on this street every day, and it is not easy to attract people's attention if there are new faces mixed in.

The Miyue Self-consciousness identified Wang Ying's pulse, so he picked this place to start his search.But this is just his guess. If Wang Ying has accomplices, and the accomplices enjoy a higher right to speak, then his assumption may be difficult to establish.

On the first day of Miyue, I just got an overview of the situation, how many shops dealing in antiques on the street, which one is the largest, which one has the best business, which one specializes in musical instruments... and so on.

Just such a rough understanding of the situation made Miyue very tired, so she went back to take a quick shower at night, and fell asleep on the bed without eating dinner.

The next morning Mi Yue woke up from starvation.

He opened his eyes, before he woke up, he saw Xiaomao and Damao lying on the other side of the pillow.The furries, one big and one small, stared at him with nervous expressions.

Mi Yue just laughed, he rubbed the little owl, and then patted Da Mao on the head, "Scared? I just walked too much and I'm tired. It's okay."

Da Mao felt lingering fear.It was very afraid that this kind human being would not get up after lying down, leaving it alone in a strange place.

Fortunately.

Mi Yue lay lazy on the bed for a few minutes, dragging her sore body to wash up. When he came out of the bedroom, Qin Han had already gone to work. Qin Zhao was on the phone in the living room, also looking like he was about to go out.

Seeing Mi Yue come out, Qin Zhao hung up the phone and asked about his going out yesterday with concern.

"I also have some acquaintances in Ancient Culture Street." Qin Zhao asked him with concern, "Do you want to ask them for help?"

Mi Yue thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Not for now, I think it's best not to alarm too many people now."

Qin Zhao nodded, "I contacted the auction house yesterday, and they said that there is no news about antique musical instruments recently. Don't worry, I'll find a way to help you inquire about the Antique Collection Association."

Miyue thanked him.

Now he also began to feel that he was a little reckless when he came out.He is just an inconspicuous little researcher, no matter whether it is the circle of academics or the circle of collection, his hand can't reach into it.It was difficult for him to find out the news that could only circulate within the small group.

Trying to find out the whereabouts of Fenghuangqin in the vast sea of ​​people is probably more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack with only blood.

Mi Yue was a little discouraged, "It's because I thought things too simply. Even if the Phoenix Qin enters the collection market, I'm afraid I won't be able to inquire about it... I will cause trouble for you and my uncle."

"Don't say that." Qin Zhao sat down opposite him and said seriously, "I really admire you."

Mi Yue was immersed in the depression of being stupid when her mind twitched, when she heard the word admiration, she thought he was making a mockery, "Admiration, do I overestimate myself?"

"Of course not." Qin Zhao looked at him, with a slight smile in his eyes, "If it was me, knowing that one thing is not very sure of success, or that it is not part of my job, I might not do much. Nosy. What I admire is the ability that I don't have."

His demeanor was too serious, which made Mi Yue a little embarrassed.He scratched his chin, sighed and said, "What kind of ability is this... I just feel that I have a responsibility, and I have to do something to make up for it..."

Qin Zhao seems to be the kind of person who can't be emotional, but he seems to understand Mi Yue's mood, "Whatever you want, just do it according to your ideas. If I can help, I will definitely help you."

Without waiting for Mi Yue to thank him again, Qin Zhao turned his gaze and landed on Da Mao beside him, "Just don't work too hard. Your little friend is also very worried about you. You fell asleep yesterday, and he didn't even have dinner. Willing to eat, always shrinking by your side."

Da Mao knew that the human being was talking about it, so his small shoulders flinched, and he was about to hide behind Mi Yue.

When Mi Yue heard Qin Zhao say that Da Mao refused to eat, she immediately felt distressed.He stretched out his hand to hug Da Mao into his arms and rubbed it, "Da Mao was raised very badly before, and he suffered a lot...he is a very good boy."

When Da Mao heard Mi Yue's praise, he blinked his eyes and showed a silly smile.

Qin Zhao also looked at it and smiled, "My grandfather said that you have been very good at getting along with animals since you were a child. He once gave you a physics class, but during the class, a group of deer squeezed into the classroom, and you couldn't get rid of them. If you do a wrong question, he wants to beat you with a pointer, but a little deer rushes to hit him with a horn."

Qin Zhao laughed.He felt that Qin Han was telling a story, and he also listened to this passage as a story.

Miyue also smiled.In fact, he could see that Qin Zhao didn't take the stories Qin Han told seriously.But he didn't intend to explain anything.

For most people, it is impossible to understand the language of animals and communicate with them freely.

Qin Zhao added: "There is one more thing. A friend of mine is also a colleague of the auction house. He wants to meet you, is that okay?"

Mi Yue was surprised, "Why are you seeing me?"

"He has listened to Professor Lin's class before," Qin Zhao said, "and thought about being a graduate student of Professor Lin. He admires Professor Lin very much. I heard that you are a student of Professor Lin, so I probably want to ask How about Professor Lin?"

Mi Yue hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, "I will convey his kindness to the teacher, let's just meet him. Please thank him for me, I really don't have much time right now."

Qin Zhao was not surprised when he saw how exhausted he looked yesterday, so he nodded and said hello.
