Chapter 783: I cant control it(2/3)
If you really want to talk about the three places in Beijing, such as the flower market, Tianqiao and Changdian, this is another exception.
Because these three parts are essentially a large collection that was derived from the temple market and evolved over a long period of time.
The flower market evolved into a market because the incense of the Fire God Temple was cut off.
It is held every month on the fourth day, the fourth day, the fourteenth day, and the twenty-fourth day.
The main products sold are silk flowers, velvet flowers, flowers, rouge and water powder from the capital, as well as bamboo and willow mountain products.
To put it bluntly, the flower market is a place where big girls and little wives like to visit, and male guests come with female guests.
The origin of the sky bridge is similar to that of the flower market. It was originally a fresh market in front of the Hongmiao.
Because it is a poor place and is dedicated to serving the poor, the Tianqiao is not at a high level even in the second-hand goods market in the capital.
Initially, it mainly focused on daily necessities, and also scrap copper and iron, which was a bit like a place where people who collected rags gathered.
Later, it gradually evolved into a business dominated by old glasses and clothing ratings. Only then did the Tianqiao start to prosper, and then there were people who were selling their art.
Therefore, in such places, there are many gangsters who bully the market, and there are many tiger stalls that deceive people. The food they sell is not hygienic, and most of them are cheap.
Even the performances of artists are not as good as the "three vulgarities" are considered beautifying.
In fact, many of the artists in the past rejected female guests.
For example, if you talk about crosstalk on the ground, this is what you would persuade me if you were more popular at the time.
"Please leave with a female guest. We are not talking about human words. Don't mess up your ears."
Let me put it this way, the people who are walking around the bridge, in addition to street sloping, unemployed poor people, farmers who come to the city, are chefs in small workshops that stop working on the 15th day of the lunar month, as well as small businessmen and businessmen from local and other places.
Especially because the Eight Great Hutongs are close to the overpass, this place is even more shameful by people at the upper level and is regarded as a lower-level rank.
Let me put it this way, no matter adults, children, men and women are allowed to come to the overpass in the capital.
If you want to relieve your boredom and watch juggling, you can go to the south of the Chengnan amusement Park near the sky bridge.
There are many famous actors there, with dedicated people to manage, there is no dirty mouth or gangster.
Having said that, this is probably the reason why many people have never been able to find any results when studying the flyover.
Because it is impossible for a scholar with education to come.
When did you hear people like Lu Xun, Zhang Henshui, and Liang Shiqiu crossed the overpass?
The person with some identity seems to be Tongzhi, a big injustice who was cheated by eunuchs.
In fact, there are not so many secrets that the reason why Tianqiao reached its peak in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China was famous throughout the country.
It is because it is held every day, with low consumption levels and no need to avoid meat and vegetables. It is a good place for "just money".
Who made the poor people back then, and most of them were illiterate?
So in terms of the real situation, it is more appropriate to say that the sky bridge is a civilian paradise rather than a "poor paradise".
Of course, there are lows and highs, and there are vulgarity and elegance.
Changdian is a typical example that is very opposite to the sky bridge, which is the only "cultural market" in the capital.
Although the Changdian Temple Fair is called a temple fair, it is not named after the temple.
Although it has the time attributes of a temple fair, it is held once a year in Haiwang Village Park, roughly from the first day of the first lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
However, in essence, it is a market where elegance and vulgarity are combined and business and entertainment are integrated.
The scope of the Changdian Temple Fair covers the Glazing Factory, and sells all things that are related to culture, and takes a high-end and elegant route.
What jewelry and jade, antique calligraphy and painting, old goods and old books, four treasures of the study...
In the old age, the painting sheds selling calligraphy and paintings have to go for a mile.
You know, the fake calligraphy and paintings that are piled up by merchants in the database that are not popular on weekdays must be "out of the cage" by the first month.
But it is also undeniable that these old goods contain treasures.
If you can’t prepare anyone who has good eyesight, you can pick up the vacancy, buy Gu Yuexuan’s snuff bottle, or rare ancient books, or ancient paintings imitated by famous artists.
This is called "knowing heroes with wise eyes". There are many people who find high-quality products.
Therefore, there are also many foreigners who come here to see them.
In fact, since the late Qing Dynasty, blond and blue-eyed foreigners and Japanese girls were indispensable, and they followed suit to visit the Changdian to make fun of them.
During the Republic of China, most of the people who came to visit Changdian were literati and celebrities.
After liberation, the Changdian Temple Fair was still dominated by intellectuals.
So when you say this, you can roughly understand the specific planning ideas of Ning Weimin on the two routes of North Gate and East Gate during this Temple of Heaven’s New Year’s Garden Tour.
He wanted to move the past Changdian to the Hall of Prayer for Youth and Danbi Bridge to turn these two places into the old Neptune Village Park.
Whether inside or outside the courtyard wall, there are plenty of books, and treasures fill the streets.
It is easier to use these high-quality products to earn money from foreigners and upper-class people.
Otherwise, why are you allowed to park cars only in the North Gate and East Gate?
There are only bicycles available at the West Gate and South Gate, and even motorcycles are not allowed to be parked.
Ning Weimin’s intention is to distinguish customer groups.
In fact, it’s not afraid of being lonely. Most people are not afraid of being unwilling to stop. Instead, they are still things that they can’t get.
Because what people who like these things need is a relatively quiet environment.
There are too many people here, and it will not surround each stall, which will reduce the interest of real customers.
Of course, people who only want to be lively and do not like this cultural atmosphere are destined not to be disappointed.
Because the two routes of the South Gate and the West Gate were designed by Ning Weimin for ordinary people.
Once those who leave here pass Chengzhen Gate, they will definitely find their fun.
In fact, to put it bluntly, I was inspired by Kang Shude's description of the Changdian Temple Fair.
Ning Weimin combined his own memories of the future New Year temple fair.
It is equivalent to using the place of Temple of Heaven Park to open a total of two festivals.
One is the temple market with the central axis line.
The other is the temple fair and folk entertainment centered on the west side with the Zhai Palace.
In this way, no matter whether it is high-end, low-end, no matter whether it is elegant or popular, it is basically all included.
It can almost satisfy most people's preferences and catch all customers in one go.
For example, among the three people who came to Ditan, the secretary and the deputy director clearly felt the charm of the high-end temple market and could not move.
Not to mention anything else, just the stalls on the outer wall of the Hall of Prayer for Rebirth will make them look blinded.
The porcelain stalls, the vanilla stalls, the countless book stalls, the special art craft manufacturers that can’t be seen at first sight...
Which one is not worth a closer look?
What porcelain, bronze, silver, vanilla, old goods, old books, old newspapers, bamboo carvings, wood carvings, stone carvings, ivory carvings, jade carvings, hair salons, seals, seals, pens and inks, paper, fan, paperweight, ink cartridges, inkstones, pen holders...
The things, on the white cotton paper, opened the bag, floated and rested, each of which attracted people and shone with eyes, and could not get tired of watching them no matter what...
The secretary and the deputy director unknowingly spent half an hour walking around. Even though they were just a quick look, they had not finished half of it.
They were a little afraid to read it. They knew that if they wanted to take a closer look, they would probably not be able to finish all the goods on the stalls in a day.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the secretary and the deputy director also found what they liked, and they didn't control their hands.
It’s true that the secretary’s hobby is to write big characters.
When he walked to Dai Yuexuan's stall, he wanted to buy someone's pen not long after seeing it.
For nothing else, it is because Dai Yuexuan is an old name that has created a custom brush for the first generation of leaders, and specially placed two brush styles customized for leaders in a glass cover to display.
Although the price is very expensive, each of them is enough to buy a hero pen.
But the secretary still took out sixteen yuan without hesitation and bought one.
The deputy director is not as good as the secretary, but he is a master who loves to listen to storytelling.
Although it is still as fascinated as Liu Baorui's crosstalk "Book Fans Fighting the Casserole", it is also a bit ridiculous.
On weekdays, he likes to search for storytelling books everywhere, and buy them whenever he sees them, and has any romance and storytelling books at home.
Today, he accidentally found a set of "Twelve Money Deer" in the pile of old books placed by Lai Xunge. It was like encountering a treasure.
He should feast his eyes on such stories that he has never heard of before.
So even though the price of twelve yuan hurts him, he pinched his nose and paid.
I thought I had been treated as a twelve raid.
In short, even they themselves did not expect that this inattention would have made the Temple of Heaven earn them a lot.
They each had a complicated feeling, and they looked at each other's things in their hands without realizing it, shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
As for the driver, although he was not interested in these elegant things and couldn't understand them, he simply forced himself to accompany the leader to wander around.
To be continued...
