"No way! Shen Qiu? You said this purple clay pot was made within a month?"

Xue Li was completely confused: "Didn't Uncle Feng and Mr. Zheng both say it? Has Fang Zitao washed his hands and quit? Shen Qiu, your words seem inconsistent!"

Shen Qiu got up to make tea for Zhang Manguo, drained the water in the purple clay pot to refresh himself, and turned the purple clay pot upside down to shine under the light in the room.

"Xueli! You are looking at the purple sand tires under the light, exuding faint red halos. This kind of halo is only reflected on the body of the new pot. It takes at least a month for tea and water to fade away. If Director Feng hadn't put the purple clay pot under the light just now, I would have almost ignored it! The interview time for this kind of purple clay pot will definitely not exceed half a month!"

"En! Not bad! Not bad for being the master chef of Xuan Baozhai! You can see all these details, Shen Qiu is right, this is indeed a new pot, and a new pot needs to be brewed to moisten water!"

"I understand!"

Xueli slapped her forehead, and her bright eyes shone brightly: "That Tang Mengxi is lying! She said that this purple clay pot was bought from the United States? But this pot is a new one? How could the new pot be in the United States? An antique shop? This woman is clearly lying to show herself!"

"Good job, Shen Qiu! Why didn't you tell me when we were eating just now! If everyone knows that she is lying, let's see where she puts her face!"

Zhang Manguo waved his hand and said: "Stinky girl, why are you always focusing on other people's weaknesses? I just said it! You and your brother still need to learn more in dealing with people. Tang Mengxi has good conditions in all aspects. This kind of person is just the most suitable person. Your brother's women, if they can achieve a positive result, such women can help your brother lead Zhenbao Pavilion to go further and higher!"

With just a few words, Shen Qiu couldn't help admiring Zhang Man from the bottom of his heart. Zhang Manguo saw the flaws of the purple sand pot early, but he was as stable as Mount Tai and could see through it without saying it. Only by doing this step in appraising treasures and antiques can he be regarded as a real master.

"Shen Qiu! You and I met for the first time today, but there is something I want to discuss with you. It is about you and Cao Donglai crossing eyes. Do you know what it means for two treasure appraisers to cross eyes? "

Shen Qiu naturally knew what it meant. Antique cross-eyed is no different from a battle game. Winner and loser, everyone will be happy and famous if they win, but they will become the laughing stock of everyone and lose their reputation if they lose.

Based on the popularity of Shen Qiu and Cao Donglai in Jiangcheng, it is estimated that if anyone loses, they will not be able to hang out in Jiangcheng in the future.

"Shen Qiu! The battles between the famous masters in Jiangcheng can be traced back to the 40s. I have witnessed many cross-eyed battles with my own eyes. Not to mention the winners, but only the losers. Among them, two Unable to accept the reality of failure, one committed suicide by taking poison, one jumped into the river and died, and the rest did not end well, and none of these cross-eyed masters ended in tragedy."

"Dad, your worry is unnecessary. Although Cao Donglai is also a master, with good eyesight and experience, Shen Qiu's ability is by no means inferior to him." Xueli stuffed Zhang Manguo's mouth with a smile. A piece of mint candy: "Besides, the true level of Master Appreciation cannot be determined by cross-eyed, anyway, no matter what others think, Shen Qiu is the most powerful in my heart! Shen Qiu! Xuanbaozhai doesn't want you, our treasure The court accepts!"

Shen Qiu took a sip of tea, and heard the meaning of the words: "Uncle is not only worried about me..."

Zhang Manguo glanced at Shen Qiu, and said meaningfully: "When two tigers fight, there is bound to be a defeat. I understand the abilities of you and Cao Donglai quite well. No matter which one of you loses, it will be a big loss to Jiangcheng Antique Street. , even if you win cross-eyed, what is that flamboyant vanity? It won't take long for people to forget you in the back of their minds, listen to uncle's advice! Let go! We are born of the same root, so why bother to fight to the death ..."

"Dad, but Shen Qiu and Cao Donglai have already made an agreement! You let Shen Qiu give up temporarily? Isn't that the same as surrendering with Cao Donglai? It's not fair to Shen Qiu!" Xue Li complained for Shen Qiu.

"Shen Qiu! Naturally, you don't have to worry about this, if you agree! Let me handle this aspect, and I will guarantee on my reputation that you and Cao Donglai will never be affected by any reputation. I have been in this business for 58 years. It's getting old, people's hearts will soften when they get old, they can't see life and death, and want to take care of everything, Shen Qiu, you can take it for my face..."

What Zhang Manguo said is correct, but all those who try to discern treasures and cross eyes often end up with a bad end for collection. Those who lose are discouraged and all thoughts are lost, and the arrogance of winning is not necessarily a good thing.

Originally, Shen Qiu had no intention of cross-eyed with Cao Donglai, but it was brought up by the other party from the beginning to the end. He was young and vigorous, and naturally he had no reason to admit his intimidation. Now Zhang Manguo's words have reached this point, and Cao Donglai is also the master of Wang Qianshi. No matter what you say, you will not be able to kill them all.

"Uncle, you've already spoken, and I don't want to pursue anything further, but I'll go back and explain this to Boss Xie... Anyway, I'm representing Xuan Baozhai now, and I'm responsible for any matters related to Xuan Baozhai. I have to explain it clearly to her..."

"Okay! Shen Qiu, you did the right thing. You should explain it to Boss Xie. I'll wait for your reply tomorrow. Cao Donglai and Boss Qian will leave it to me. Wouldn't it be nice if we all get along in harmony in Jiangcheng's antique circle? "

……

In the middle of the night, Zhang Manguo and his daughter sent Shen Qiu away. Seeing Shen Qiu's back, Xueli mischievously held her father's wrist: "Dad? How is it? Is the son-in-law I found for you qualified?"

"Qualified and qualified, I'm afraid you, a stinky girl, won't be able to catch Shen Qiu's heart so easily. Shen Qiu is a good seed, quite like me when I was young. I'm afraid this temple like you can't hold back his big Buddha." !"

"I can't do it, so I still have you! Dad! My temple is no good, so you can help me expand and repair it! When you can live in it, stop it!"

"Hahahaha! You stinky girl! Looking at it this way, you are quite sure, let Master Su help you figure out the marriage, whether you and Shen Qiu are destined or not!"

……

The next day, on a very ordinary day, three luxury cars parked in front of Xuan Baozhai's gate, and more than a dozen people got out of the cars, led by a tall middle-aged man wearing glasses.

The middle-aged man is about 40 years old, with a parted hair in the middle, and a famous brand all over his body, surrounded by a group of people behind him. Some of these people are holding microphones, some are carrying high-end cameras, and even professional makeup artists are accompanying the group. This formation feels like shooting a show.

Suddenly there was such a big battle, Xiaoqi and Xiaogang who guarded the store were so frightened that they were caught off guard, and the two hurried forward to stop the group of people.

"Wait, wait! May I ask what's the situation? Is there something wrong?"

"Aha, hello! I'm Fang Tiancheng from Yangcheng. I've greeted you, Boss Xie, before. I'm here to buy Huang Xing's "Running Bull Picture"!" The middle-aged man introduced himself politely.

"Mr. Fang?" Xiaogang nodded knowingly and said, "Our boss did say that Mr. Fang would come back today, but what's your situation? Why are there so many people following you?"

Fang Tiancheng continued to introduce: "This is the team I brought over from Yangcheng. Among them, these old gentlemen are master appraisers in Yangcheng. I brought them here to help appraise the collection. What about the rest of the young people? They are the "Treasure Hunting" column of Yangcheng TV Station, and the column knew that I was going to Jiangcheng to hunt for treasures, so they came here to do an interview, just to make a record of my treasure hunting process."

"You don't have to worry about this. Mr. Fang is a big player in antiques in Yangcheng. He is going to spend [-] million to buy treasures in Jiangcheng this time. Your Xuanbaozhai is the first one on this trip. Our TV station will record to a certain extent. I will increase your popularity on the Internet and help you advertise for free!"

A hostess with long hair spoke in standard Mandarin.

"welcome!"

The two young men did not dare to make decisions. At this time, Xie Jingwen came out from the garage: "Welcome Mr. Fang to our Xuanbaozhai, and welcome Yangcheng TV Station to our Jiangcheng...Xuanbaozhai welcomes the supervision of us from all walks of life, and will also It will present the best and most perfect collection..."
