Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure

Chapter 192: First Arrival at Panjiayuan (Happy New Year's Eve~)

November 20th, Beijing, Daxing Airport.

Bai Xi walked out of the VIP building wearing sunglasses.

She did not forget the task issued by the system, and the task prompt that cost her a lot of collection points.

Today was exactly the time shown on the system prompt, so she took the time to rush to the capital.

Fortunately, the renovation of the "Chuangzhi Space" is also on the right track. With Bai Ze and Xu Zhiwen helping to keep an eye on it, nothing will go wrong.

"Boss Bai, the car is here."

Xiao Rui came out from behind her, pushing the luggage and accompanied by a group of bodyguards.

Since "Kunpeng" and "Military Bionic Aircraft Research Institute" were put on the agenda, Baixi's importance has been increasing day by day.

If she hadn't insisted, there would most likely be a background check before she went to a place, and at the very least, she wouldn't be allowed to go to a place like Panjiayuan where all kinds of people mixed together.

Now all we can do is arrange a few more special bodyguards, and they have all been given death orders to protect Bai Xi's personal safety.

"it is good."

"Let's go! Panjiayuan!"

......

"Boss Bai, this is Guo Jianhua."

"I have worked in Panjiayuan for 20 years and am one of the most experienced guides in Panjiayuan."

In a high-end noodle restaurant near Panjiayuan.

Bai Xi, who had just finished eating the noodles in his bowl, took the tissue handed to him by Xiao Rui and wiped his mouth.

Then he carefully looked at the dark-skinned, short and thin middle-aged man in front of him, and nodded slightly to the bodyguard who brought him here. The other party understood what he meant, left Guo Jianhua here, turned around and left silently.

Hearing that Panjiayuan was a dangerous place, Bai Xi naturally would not foolishly jump in, so she asked Xiao Rui to contact his connections in the imperial capital and help her find a capable local tyrant.

Well, just to fill my stomach. Even the most luxurious airplane meals are not very tasty.

Facing Bai Xi's gaze and scrutiny, Guo Jianhua subconsciously shrank back, making his already short and thin body look even less noticeable. "Boss Bai, hello... hello, I'm Guo Jianhua. What do you want me to do?"

"Big brother, you don't have to be nervous."

"I'm from another place, and I've long heard that Panjiayuan is the largest collectibles market in China. And because Panjiayuan was once a place where people found great bargains many years ago, I've been fascinated by it and always wanted to visit."

"But Panjiayuan is so huge. If we go in directly, we'll probably be like a headless fly. That's why we asked you to come here to act as a guide. It would be even better if you could tell us some interesting stories about Panjiayuan."

Seeing that the other party was a little nervous, Bai Xi smiled gently and comforted him in a gentle voice.

"Whoa whoa……"

"If that's all, then I have no problem with that."

"I wouldn't say I'm familiar with other places, but when it comes to Panjiayuan, I can walk around it even with my eyes closed."

Originally, Guo Jianhua was a little nervous, mainly because Bai Xi's temperament and appearance were so outstanding, coupled with the intimidating bodyguards around her, and the money Bai Xi gave was several times more than the normal fee.

This extremely unreasonable behavior made him feel a little uneasy.

However, when he heard that he would only be a guide in Panjiayuan and would definitely not be asked to do anything else, his uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

"In that case, let's set off soon."

Bai Xi smiled at Guo Jianhua, stood up and walked out of Yongji Noodle House first. Guo Jianhua followed quickly behind him and walked towards Panjiayuan.

……

five minutes later.

Bai Xi and others stood at the main entrance of Panjiayuan again.

Since there were all kinds of people in Panjiayuan, a group of bodyguards were quietly distributed around Bai Xi, forming a circular protective circle to protect her.

"Mr. Guo, I heard that Panjiayuan has six major districts. Which district do you think we should start with?"

Bai Xi did not go in directly, but turned to look at Guo Jianhua beside him and asked him with a smile, as if he was really a tourist from outside the area who was planning to visit Panjiayuan.

In fact, Bai Xi had already determined her destination long ago, but it was impossible for her to let Guo Jianhua take her straight to the stone carving area as soon as she arrived at Panjiayuan.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe a collection that can be evaluated by the system as priceless treasure as being priceless. According to Bai Xi's guess, this extremely precious and unique treasure is most likely a cultural treasure lost among the people. It is now disguised and hidden in some form, waiting to see the light of day in the future.

In other words, Bai Xi's trip was to pick up bargains. According to the system's prompts, he had to find this rare treasure as soon as possible within a limited time.

However, if the purpose is too clear, it will easily be noticed by those with ulterior motives, and it would be bad if it backfired.

Anyone who can make it in a place like Panjiayuan is a smart person. With Bai Xi's current intelligence, he naturally understands this.

In life, no matter how anxious you are, it is better to be steady.

"Miss Bai, Panjiayuan has six major areas: the street stall area, the ancient building area, the classical furniture area, the modern collection area, the stone carving area, and the catering service area. Excluding the catering service area, there are only five major areas left."

"The street stall area is only open on weekends, and today happens to be Sunday. If you don't have any particular place you want to go, I suggest you start with the street stall area, because it is the biggest feature of Panjiayuan. Those legendary stories of finding bargains that have been circulated in the past often took place in this area."

"In addition, the variety of items displayed in the street stall area is far beyond the reach of other areas, such as ancient books and paintings, old books and periodicals, agate and jade, ceramics, Chinese and foreign coins, bamboo, wood and bone carvings, shadow puppet masks, Buddhist souvenirs and many other categories. You can see them all here."

When talking about what he is good at, Guo Jianhua became quite talkative.

"Of course, Miss Bai, I must remind you."

"Although the street stall area is Panjiayuan's most distinctive area and has the most goods and varieties, it is also the most chaotic and full of counterfeit goods."

"Just stop and walk around there, take a look, and join in the fun. Don't listen to the nonsense of those people. There are not only deep waters in there, but also many tricks."

"Every business has its own rules. Once you enter Panjiayuan, I can only guide you and tell you interesting stories. But if you really encounter any tricks, I can't say anything. If I say something and disrupt their business, I will become a target of public criticism, and I won't be able to make a living from this business anymore. So you must be very careful."

"Especially fragile items, don't touch them lightly. Also, if you encounter people bidding aggressively or trying to snatch items from you at a high price, you must remain calm. They are most likely hired by the stall owner or are using tricks."

Just as Bai Xi was about to step into Panjiayuan, Guo Jianhua looked a little serious and gave Bai Xi a series of instructions.

Bai Xi's eyes flickered with a strange look when he heard this. Then, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he nodded gently: "Mr. Guo, based on what you just said, you will be my guide for the next few days."

"Good good!"

"Thank you, Mr. Bai!"

"Thank you, Mr. Bai!"

Guo Jianhua was stunned for a moment, then a look of joy appeared on his face, and he thanked Bai Xi repeatedly.

You have to know that the price Bai Xi offered him was many times higher than the normal price. Working for Bai Xi for two days could earn him more than he earned working for others for a month. Such a generous reward was definitely a windfall for him. How could he not feel inexplicably surprised?

Bai Xi smiled and waved, then without saying anything else, led by Guo Jianhua, quickly walked towards the street stall area of ​​Panjiayuan...
