treasure hunt god pupil

Chapter 1071
What is a local tyrant, it is the type of Xu Jiaguo, the best cat poop coffee is freshly ground, but he put three pieces of rock sugar in it.

"What's good to drink if it's not bitter?"

Li Mo silently picked up the coffee and took a sip, feeling pretty good.

Xu Pingjun walked into the office with a plate of fruit and said with a smile, "Professor Li, the fruit is not for today. If I knew you were coming, I wouldn't be so perfunctory."

"If you're not an outsider, just call me Li Mo. At least we are alumni."

Li Mo didn't care whether the fruit was new or not, but felt that Xu Pingjun, a woman, had changed a lot.She was originally a petite beauty, but she seemed to have lost the agility of the past after not seeing her for several years.

"Daughter, Li Mo explained that he will attend the [-]th anniversary celebration of his alma mater tomorrow. Have you received an invitation from the school?"

Xu Pingjun looked at Lao Xu speechlessly: "You thought the school would invite all the alumni over there, can I compare with Li Mo?"

"That means you were not invited."

"you..."

Li Mo laughed quickly and said, "If we talk about it, there will be a quarrel. The city god's temple area already knows that I'm here, so there's no way to pick up the leak. I'll go to other places, and I'll leave first."

"Come on, let's have lunch together."

Xu Pingjun coughed lightly and said, "Dad, it's rare for Li Mo to go back to Shanghai. He must want to go shopping again. If it weren't for the anniversary of his alma mater, how would he have time to return to Shanghai? Jiugong Mountain, Yandu City, Hebei Province, etc. There are so many things in the north. Don't make any trouble, I think there will be plenty of time after dinner."

Li Mo walked out of Gongtingji stewed vegetables shop, Xu Pingjun chased him out and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you some stewed vegetables to take with you."

"Don't be so troublesome..."

"No trouble, just wait a moment."

Ten minutes later, Li Mo walked from Gu Yunxuan's shop carrying a large bag of various stewed vegetables. He was out for shopping, and it was inconvenient to bring so much food.But it's hard to refuse people with good intentions, so they can only take it with them.

"Professor Li."

Just as Li Mo was about to open the door and enter Gu Yunxuan's store, he saw Boss Wang trotting over from the store diagonally opposite.

"Boss Wang, run slowly." I haven't seen him for many years. Boss Wang's hair is all white, but his hair is combed neatly, and he has even applied styling water. He is still a little thinner.

"I'm getting older, and I don't usually exercise much. I'm really out of breath after running for more than ten meters. Let's go and sit in my shop and drink some tea." Boss Wang pulled Li Mo and walked towards his antique shop.

"Your granddaughter is back from a trip?"

"I've been back a long time ago. As soon as that girl came back, she took out the photos she took with you to show off everywhere. Children nowadays are really difficult to serve. I don't know what their heads are thinking about all day long. King Li Chuang who was born in Jiugong Mountain There are a lot of antiques in the treasure, can you tell me about it?"

"How should I put it, there are too many, I can't finish it. There are hundreds of pieces of gold, silver, jewelry and jade jewelry in a wooden box, and there are more than 50 boxes that have been born."

Boss Wang's shop is not big, and in the place where he worships the God of Wealth, there is the first leak that Li Mo picked up in his life, an amphora bottle from the Qing Dynasty.

"Professor Li, sit here."

Boss Wang quickly made a pot of tea, which was this year's Dongting Lake green spring new tea.

"Boss Wang, how is business?"

"Aren't you just slapping me when you ask this question?" Boss Wang smiled and continued, "It's just a mess, it's more than enough, but it can't be compared with you, we are not in the same order of."

"Put all these stewed vegetables on a plate and have a drink here at noon."

It's not easy to take away all the stewed vegetables.

"The braised vegetables in Gongtingji are so good, I can't bear to eat them every day."

jingle-

Someone opened the door and walked in. It was a man in his 20s, carrying a travel bag, and asked as soon as he came in, "Boss, do you collect antiques here?"

Boss Wang was about to get a plate to put the stewed vegetables on. Hearing this, he got up and went up to meet him and said, "I can accept authentic antiques with no problem."

"Grandpa passed it down. It wasn't because the business lost money and urgently needed capital turnover, so I brought it here to find a suitable buyer, and sold it if the price was satisfactory."

"Go to the counter and show me what kind of antique it is?"

Li Mo picked up the teacup and slowly tasted it. It was still Biluochun before the rain. Unfortunately, the water used to make the tea was not right, and the aroma of the tea lacked a little heat.

"Boss, my grandfather said before his death that this is a piece of jade, please help us figure it out."

The man took out a pen holder-shaped object, Boss Wang took out a spotlight flashlight to illuminate it, and then studied it for two or three minutes before asking, "Do you know what this is?"

"My grandfather said it was jade. I had someone identify it before and said it was made of jasper. Actually, I don't know much about it."

Hearing what he said, Li Mo sighed secretly, didn't it make it clear that he was being fooled.Of course, maybe he knew it, and he just used this method to judge whether Boss Wang was fooling him.

Obviously, Boss Wang is not proficient in this kind of jade, and he can't identify what dynasty this jade is, what is its origin, and how much is it worth.

But he was not in a hurry, turned around and looked at Li Mo, hoping he could give him an opinion.

However, Li Mo lowered his head and drank his tea by himself. This was a deal between them, and it might be counterproductive to intervene by himself.

"How much are you going to sell for?"

Boss Wang asked according to the normal routine.

"20, no counter-offer."

When he heard that it would cost 20 yuan, Boss Wang immediately backed off. This thing is too risky, and it can be lost if you are not careful. Although it will not lose everything, the risk must be great.

"I'm not very sure about this jade." Boss Wang refused, but the young man didn't understand his code words, "Boss, take a closer look."

Seeing his anxious expression, Li Mo couldn't help but said: "Boss Wang, I think that jade is not bad, if you buy it at a bargain price, it can be regarded as doing him a favor."

When Boss Wang heard what Li Mo said, his eyes lit up immediately. With him in charge, it would definitely be worth buying this jade.But bargaining is his right, so he pretended to hesitate before looking at the man and saying, "I'll take 16."

"Boss, 20 is not negotiable."

"Young man, there is no fixed price in our business. My shop is located in the middle of the antique street, and the shop is also medium-sized. You can walk to my place and you haven't made a sale yet. It is obvious that someone else has offered a lower price. You bid 20, it is normal for me to bid 16. If you insist on admitting death to 20, then we can't continue talking about this business."

Li Mo reminded him that Boss Wang speaks confidently and logically, and makes people feel that he is quite reasonable.

The young man began to struggle. He looked at Li Mo, but he could only see his back.

"Boss, 19, I really can't lower it any further. If I wasn't anxious to wait for the money to turn around, I wouldn't sell the treasures passed down by the elders in my family."

Boss Wang waved his hand: "Well, 18, if you think I'm honest in doing business, then we'll make a deal at this price. We pay with one hand and deliver with the other."

"Okay, I'll transfer this jade to you."

Boss Wang was also straightforward, wrote a contract and transferred the money quickly. The man was slightly relieved after receiving the reminder text message, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye.

As soon as he left, Boss Wang immediately closed the door and put up a sign saying that business was closed.

"Professor Li, you are an expert in this field, help me make a proper appraisal."

Li Mo picked up the jade from the table, looked at it for a while and said with a smile: "This is a square pen holder. Just now you took a picture with a flashlight, and there were small black spots inside. The material is jasper, and it is of comparable quality. Yes, Hetian Biyu."

"If you look at these four sides, they are all carved with paintings. This landscape painting is called "Gui Yin Tu". There are small bridges and flowing water, a game game picture, and a poem on it. Wandering around the center of things, the rise and fall of lonely mountains, the autumn is misty, and the dream returns to Chibi, and the night is heavy. Sometimes there is dancing and the moon is at the table, where the wind is full of the forest, and it is said that there is nothing long in the circle, and there are several poles of bamboo and a bed of qin'. This song The poem was written by Wang Mingchun, a poet of the Song Dynasty."

Boss Wang asked overjoyedly, "Could it be that this pen holder was passed down from the Song Dynasty?"

"You think too much. Look at these characters. The carvings are like children's writing. From the perspective of character carving technology, it is obvious that it is intermittent, uneven in thickness, and different in depth. It shows that it is not from the hands of famous artists. It may have been carved by a literati himself."

"In addition, judging from its inner evisceration, if you touch the bottom with your hands, you will find that its bottom is concave and its surroundings are raised. It is very different from the current technology. The current technology is to pierce the whole material. After piercing, the bottom is cut flat, and then glued. This jasper pen holder is hollowed out from a whole piece of material, and the walls are smoothed, so it is even in thickness, and the craftsmanship is painstaking. Judging by my appraisal, this This thing is a square pen holder from the late Qing Dynasty to the early Republic of China."

Although the jasper pen holder is not from the Song Dynasty and only has a history of more than 100 years, Boss Wang still asked with anticipation: "Professor Li, how much do you think this pen holder is worth?"

Li Mo took a sip of tea and said, "Boss Wang, don't you usually pay attention to some auction prices?"

"Hey, it's not that you don't know what level I am. It's useless for me to know any information."

Li Mo immediately said: "I remember that there was an auction in Beijing ten years ago, and a jasper round pen holder was sold at that time. It can be worth at least 50 million at the auction."

It’s a leak, and it’s still a big leak.Boss Wang is very excited now, there is another treasure in his shop.

"Boss Wang, this square jasper pen holder should be kept well. Most people don't know this Hetian jasper. Only after the light is passed through can we find some clues."

"Hey, I will keep your words in mind. Professor Li, I have a treat at noon."

Li Mo pointed to the stewed vegetables in Gongtingji on the table and said with a smile: "I brought these stewed vegetables from Gongtingji."

Boss Wang immediately laughed: "I invite you to drink and eat rice."

Li Mo didn't drink, but only drank a glass of juice. He had other arrangements in the afternoon, and if he got dizzy after drinking, he would delay things.After filling his stomach, Li Mo continued to walk casually around the Town God's Temple. When he was a little closer, Liu Yingying called.

"Yingying, are you done with your affairs?"

"Don't mention it, it makes me angry."

"what happened?"

It shouldn't be, today I came across the content of tomorrow's speech on stage, why have I been so angry after going there for a long time, isn't it just looking for trouble.

Liu Yingying said very displeased: "That Jia Jingwen's business has grown, and we old classmates kept listening to him babbling when we met. I was upset when I heard it."

"Then don't listen to his nonsense."

"If I hadn't considered the head teacher's mood, I would have left a long time ago, and finally made it to the end of the dinner. Little Mo, you don't know. Listening to his tone, no one in this world can fall into his eyes."

Li Mo chuckled and said, "That's quite arrogant, and from another perspective, he's quite ignorant."

"Don't talk about him, where are you, I'll go find you."

"City God's Temple here."

"Then you wait for me, I'll pick you up in the past, we have nothing to do in the afternoon, why not go to the movies."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

A few minutes after Li Mo hung up the phone, he received a call from Chu Li. She had already arrived in Shanghai and made an appointment with the head teacher, Teacher An, to have dinner together in the evening. Naturally, Li Mo was indispensable.

"Send me the address and I'll be there on time."

The restaurant that Mr. An booked is close to his alma mater, and it is still a little distance from the Chenghuang Temple.Thinking that he hadn't met his high school classmates for many years, Li Mo was still looking forward to it.As the old saying goes, one of the most common things people do as they grow older is nostalgia.

Before five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Yingying and Li Mo arrived at the restaurant.

"Xiaomo, this is a gathering of classmates and teachers in your class, is it appropriate for me to attend?"

"It's suitable, just to have a meal, there is no need to go online. People can bring their wives and children to dinner. Why can't I do it here?"

A sweet smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yingying's mouth: "I hate it."

Li Mo thought he was the first to come, but he didn't expect to hear bursts of laughter coming from the box as soon as he got near the box, and there was someone earlier than him.

Knock on the door, then open it and walk in.The people in the box who were chatting enthusiastically turned their heads and looked over, and then suddenly became silent.

The legendary Li Mo has arrived.

"Hello, Teacher An, and hello to all the old classmates."

"Li Mo, sit here." Teacher An waved to him with a smile. She already had white hair on her head, but she was in good spirits.

Li Mo walked to the table and didn't sit down, but first introduced Yingying and said, "This is my junior sister Liu Yingying, who used to be the top student in the next class. Some of you may still have some impressions."

"Even if you didn't know her in school, there are very few people who don't know her now. She is both an actor and a director, and she is a proper star. Yingying, sit by my side."

Chu Li pulled Liu Yingying to sit on the empty seat beside her, and poured her a cup of tea.

"Squad leader Chu, is your treat today?"

Li Mo poured himself a cup of tea and asked.

Unexpectedly, Chu Li glared at him, and said with a serious expression: "I made a mistake, try again."

Li Mo rubbed his forehead and said with a hey smile, "Sister-in-law, is it your treat tonight?"

Everyone else in the box looked at Chu Li in shock. What does the word "sister-in-law" mean?
