Chapter 130 Transaction (please subscribe)

Seven days later, June 6th.

The early morning breeze swept across the winding Anling River coastline, carrying a faint smell of grass and water vapor, and blew to the old town in the east of the city, brushing against the dense branches and leaves in the old town, and stroked the hair of the kitten under the eaves, and finally rushed into the window, filling the small room.

At eight o'clock, Lin Chuan got up as usual and opened the iron door.

The landlady is just outside the door.

This is the biological clock that the landlady has developed for Lin Chuan over the past week.

Today, her face was fair and rosy, and she was wearing a white T-shirt with a Pikachu cartoon pattern on it and a pair of short light gray and white pants, revealing her straight and white long legs, swaying in front of Lin Chuan's eyes.

Lin Chuan's sleepiness was completely shaken away.

In her hands she was carrying a bag of apples and today's breakfast for two - mutton noodle soup.

The landlady tiptoed slightly, moved closer to Lin Chuan and sniffed hard, then said with a smile: "Chairman, you smell so good."

"I see you are really hungry."

Lin Chuan smiled, gently tapped the tip of the landlady's nose, and then took the breakfast and apple from her hand.

"There's still one thing you haven't taken." The young landlady pursed her lips slightly.

Lin Chuan was startled: "I took them all."

The landlady suddenly revealed a brilliant smile, then jumped up, crossed her legs, and wantonly put her arms around Lin Chuan's neck, hanging on Lin Chuan's body, hugging Lin Chuan tightly, and taking a deep sniff:
"There's me too!"

"Little landlady, you attacked me, how presumptuous of you." Lin Chuan was worried that the little landlady would slip and fall, so he could only support her with his arms.

"Chairman, I weigh 106 pounds. Is that heavy?" the young landlady said with a giggle.

"It's not heavy, but I can't stand it."

"You held on!" the young landlady blinked.

what?
Lin Chuan's face turned red with embarrassment. He quickly turned around and put the young landlady in the living room.

She was too strong and it was really a bit too much for her.

The young landlady Zhang Xinxin looked at Lin Chuan's embarrassed look, and a sly smile flashed in her eyes. As expected, his psychological defenses could not withstand the all-round attack.

Chairman, mine!

When a woman pursues a man, there is a veil between them.

Especially for an online writer like Lin Chuan, it is really difficult to withstand the thunderous, yet gentle and gracious attack from the landlady.

call--

"Chairman, what's wrong with you?" The young landlady blinked and said with a smile.

"Asking knowingly."

Lin Chuan smiled and spat, "I have something important to do today."

"Then let you go and have breakfast first."

The young landlady smiled, then sat down at the table and had breakfast with Lin Chuan.

"Ding Dong Ding Dong——"

At this time, the mobile phone rang.

Lin Chuan took a look and saw that it was sent by editor Youyou.

"Baby~ wake up!"

These days.

Lin Chuan's anti-fraud novel "All in One Go" advanced to the next round as the top candidate.

So, I have been in closer contact with Youyou during this period.

"I'm having breakfast." Lin Chuan replied, then glanced at the landlady opposite. The landlady was smiling and gave Lin Chuan two more pieces of mutton.

As for who Lin Chuan was chatting with, she didn't ask.

"Your work and rest schedule has been quite regular lately, very good." Youyou seemed very pleased.

Lin Chuan smiled and replied, "'All or Nothing' has entered the next round. Now we just have to wait for its final results to be released."

"No matter from the perspective of popularity or content, "All or Nothing" is a strong contender for the first prize. Let's secure the second place and strive for the first place!" Youyou sent a message.

It can be seen that she is very optimistic about Lin Chuan winning the first place in the anti-fraud essay contest.

"Then I'll leave the matter of becoming the king of pop this year in the hands of Youyou." Lin Chuan said half-jokingly.

Youyou had revealed before that if All or Nothing could win good results in the anti-fraud essay contest, then Lin Chuan's historical achievements would be enough to compete with some veteran authors with tens of thousands of subscriptions for the top spot.

If he could get the first place and get a film or TV adaptation, then Lin Chuan would definitely have a place among today's 'Twelve Heavenly Kings'.

Since the Anti-Fraud Center and Sunshine Films are making a film and television adaptation of "All or Nothing", the popularity is bound to be quite high.

As the popularity increased, the popularity of the novel "All or Nothing" also rose accordingly.

"Don't worry, All or Nothing is breaking out right now, and with The Matrix, there's a good chance that you'll be crowned one of the Twelve Heavenly Kings this year."

Youyou replied immediately.

In the Qihang Novel Building, Youyou looked at the chat box with Lin Chuan and couldn't help feeling fortunate that she had bet on the right horse.

"The Tazza" and "This Killer is Too Professional" have reached the level of masterpieces.

"Hacker Kingdom" has become a huge hit overseas and has received tens of thousands of subscriptions in China.

"All or Nothing" is currently breaking out in China and has entered the semi-finals of the "Anti-Fraud Essay Contest". The final results will be announced on June 6. Many readers hope that it can be adapted into a film or television program, and there is a strong call for it.

Youyou was delighted.

As long as he can firmly grasp Lin Chuan, this treasure author, help him ascend to the throne of the king, and then push him to the position of the great god, won’t his promotion and salary increase be within his grasp?
Wonderful!

However, the competitive pressure in the second half of the year is very high!
Youyou immediately sent another message to Lin Chuan: "Baby~When are you going to publish your next book?"

Lin Chuan thought for a moment and replied, "About a week after the anti-fraud essay contest ends. What's the matter?"

"In the second half of the year, Qihang Novels will enter a state of fierce fighting." Youyou replied.

Lin Chuan frowned, put down his chopsticks immediately, and quickly typed a line of words on his phone: "Fierce fighting, what does this mean?"

soon.

Youyou explained the reason: "Let's talk about the anti-fraud essay collection first. For example, Tianya, Guihai, and Handong will most likely publish new books this month or next month. In addition, the kings and great writers will publish new books one after another in the second half of the year, especially in the near future. There are also several platinum writers who have expressed the idea of ​​publishing new books."

hiss.

Lin Chuan's brows were knitted together, showing a hint of worry.

Tens of thousands of orders, superstars, and great writers are all launching books!
Are there a few platinums joining in the fun?
"Why are all the books published at this time? Is there a big dispute in the online literature circle?" Lin Chuan couldn't help but ask.

"Every year starting from May and June, it is the golden period for a group of strong authors to publish books, because the site traffic will be higher in the second half of the year. These authors all want to take advantage of this wave of traffic and accumulate enough popularity to become a superstar, a great god, or even achieve platinum status. For some authors, it is purely a coincidence." Youyou explained.

Lin Chuan couldn't help but grin when he read the message sent by Youyou.

He thought again of his upcoming new book, Last Week's Antiques.

System requirements: 2 average subscriptions!
You can unlock the next career only when you reach an average subscription of 20,000!

Why is the novel "Setting Sail" so convoluted?
The site has a limited amount of traffic, and the readers are relatively fixed, but when superstars, great writers, and platinum authors publish new books, they will definitely consume a considerable amount of traffic.

To put it simply, the cake is only so big. If some people eat it with big mouthfuls, others will have nothing to eat.

"It's so difficult!" Lin Chuan sighed.

"It's okay. I've fought hard for the recommendation for you. You're very capable too, so just start writing the book with confidence. Kill them all and prove your truth in one fell swoop!!!" Youyou encouraged.

"Okay! Kill them hard!" Lin Chuan grinned.

End the chat.

Lin Chuan put down his phone, had breakfast with the landlady, and then went to work.

720am Cybersecurity Inc.

Antique shop on East Street in the afternoon.

Yes, Lin Chuan is the chairman of 720 Network Security Company, and Xiao Yupo is the financial director and human resources director, so they need to handle many company affairs.

The promotion of anti-fraud apps is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

On the other hand, a new antique shop has already selected and renovated its store, and is now contacting some suppliers.

So. From morning to afternoon, a small electric car drove from Xingfu Community to Zhongcheng Building in Qingxiu District, and then from Zhongcheng Building to Dongda Street.

At this time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

The scorching sun was blocked by clouds and it was cloudy, but East Street did not seem hot. Many antique vendors displayed large and small antique items in the streets and alleys, shouting and making the scene lively.

On East Street, there is a golden storefront at the corner of an alley. It is decorated in an antique style and has a plaque named "Jinshiyuan" hanging on it.

In Jinshiyuan's store, a transparent glass cabinet was set up, which contained many antique items, all of which were purchased by Lin Chuan from various places in the past few days.

Outside the glass cabinets, there are many works of art.

These works of art were made by Lin Chuan himself, imitating some antique objects with exquisite craftsmanship, but they were all marked accordingly to prevent others from mistaking them for real.

Damn your conscience!
There is another exhibit on the second floor, which is the 'Fengtian One Liang' that Lin Chuan brought back from the police station.

Old Zhang and the young landlady agreed that this "Fengtian One Liang" should become the treasure of Jinshiyuan, that is, the treasure of the store.

Lin Chuan didn't have any objections, but just marked "Imitation Artwork" and "Not for Sale" next to it.

This imitation piece is indeed qualified to be the best piece in the palace.

The "Yatang" is the most valuable treasure of a store, which best reflects the strength of this store.

The imitations of Fengtian are not the real thing, but the fact that they are displayed in the store is enough to let people who come in know the level of antiques in this store, and it also makes many vendors who want to take advantage of the situation by selling fakes leave in disgrace.

The counterfeiting technology of this coin can be said to be at the pinnacle. If we bring in a fake one, it would be a bit like showing off one's skills before an expert.

At this time.

A man in a plain blue T-shirt and a hat walked into the store: "Boss, can I have treasure appraised here?"

"Of course, please come this way for treasure appraisal."

Lin Chuan, wearing a casual white shirt, led the man in the blue T-shirt to the identification location on the first floor.

To identify antiques, one needs an antique appraiser certificate, so Lin Chuan took advantage of this time to get a certificate.

The man was about 175cm tall, with relatively yellow skin, carrying a large bag across his shoulder. He sat opposite Lin Chuan and asked, "How much does it cost to appraise treasures?"

"200 each." Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"Little brother, are you the one who helps me identify it?" the man asked.

Lin Chuan nodded.

The man smiled and said, "You're a bit young."

Lin Chuan also smiled and replied: "It's OK as long as the antique is not young."

"Okay, help me take a look at these two first."

The man then took out two objects wrapped in black cloth from his bag and placed them on the long table covered with red cloth.

Lin Chuan glanced at the man, then picked up an object and slowly opened the black cloth, revealing a bowl-shaped porcelain vessel decorated with exquisite doucai patterns.

In natural light.

The bowl has a regular shape, smooth lines, a round rim and moderate walls. Both the inner and outer walls of the bowl are painted with delicate floral and curling grass patterns, which are intertwined and colorful.

Its glaze is as smooth as jade, delicate and even, revealing a warm luster. The overall effect is both the elegance of underglaze blue and white and the gorgeousness of overglaze color.

"Little brother, how are you?" the man asked eagerly.

"A bowl with round flower and scroll grass patterns." Lin Chuan looked up at the man and said with a smile.

"What about the era? Can you tell it?" the man in the blue T-shirt asked again.

Lin Chuan picked up the bowl and took a look at it, then said with a smile, "Let me show you... It was during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty."

"how's the price?"

"This bowl is made with exquisite craftsmanship, but the bottom of the bowl is worn and there is a crack at the rim. It should be worth tens of thousands." Lin Chuan smiled.

"Okay, okay!" The man in the blue T-shirt grinned and then pointed to another object.

Another object is a stove.

"Bronze incense burner." Lin Chuan took a look and said with a smile.

The copper incense burner is in the shape of a tripod, with a round body and soft lines. It is carved with exquisite auspicious cloud patterns, which are delicate and meticulous. The auspicious clouds are well-spaced. The cover is hollowed out, shaped like auspicious clouds, which complements the body and mouth of the burner.

Overall, the patina of the copper incense burner is deep in color, as if covered with a layer of light gold or reddish brown, making it look more ancient.

"The copper incense burner from the Qing Dynasty. Let me show you the price of less than 20,000 yuan." Lin Chuan concluded.

"Little brother, you have a good eye."

The man in the blue T-shirt gave Lin Chuan a thumbs up, then began to pack up the copper incense burner and the Doucai round flower and grass pattern bowl and put them into his bag.

"Scan the code here." Lin Chuan smiled.

400 dollars, received.

Before the man left the door, he looked at Lin Chuan and asked, "Little brother, can we add each other on WeChat? I have a lot of treasures that I want to identify. If the price you offer is good, I can sell it to you."

"of course can."

Lin Chuan smiled, and then added the man as a friend.

After the man left.

The landlady who had been following Lin Chuan asked curiously, "Chairman, why didn't we ask him if he would sell the bowl and the copper incense burner?"

Lin Chuan gently tapped the young landlady's forehead: "You, you take this and that."

The landlady curled her lips slightly and said, "I just saw that we don't have much in our store. Can't we accept his two antiques?"

Lin Chuan smiled and said, "It's not that I can't take them, but these two things are not his."

"How can you tell?" the young landlady asked curiously.

"You'll understand it after you see it more."

"Haven't you just started watching it for a few days?"

"Well, what I mean is, you'll understand once you see more people."

"There are also people who come to appraise antiques for others."

"Of course. Many sellers are not convenient to come forward, so they ask others to help take the items for appraisal. This is a common thing. In addition, our Jinshiyuan has just opened, and some people from nearby shops often come to play and smash our signs." Lin Chuan said with a smile.

The young landlady nodded and took note of it in her mind.

The antique shop was newly opened, and there was not much supply, so there were not many customers in the afternoon. Instead, there were quite a few people who came to appraise antiques. Among them, a few of them were holding fakes, but they insisted that they were real, trying to embarrass Lin Chuan.

But Lin Chuan resolved them one by one without leaving any excuses.

Before I knew it, the sun had set and night had fallen.

The flow of people on East Street is two to three times that of daytime, and Jinshiyuan's business has also become busy.

However, due to the different characteristics of antiques.

There were a lot of customers, and they waited back and forth outside the door for a long time before coming in. But after looking around, they left without buying anything and left nothing.

Does this count as coming in?

Did this happen?

It was not until ten o'clock in the evening that the crowd gradually dispersed.

"Ding Dong Ding Dong——"

A message popped up on the phone. It was from the man in the blue T-shirt in the afternoon: "Little brother, I have a treasure here. Would you like to take it?"

Lin Chuan replied: "What treasure?"

Then, the other party sent two photos taken on the spot, and added the words: "What do you think of this piece of porcelain?"

Lin Chuan took a look and said, "Just looking at the pictures, it's really good. It would be best if I could take it to the store to have a look."

"Okay, I'll be there now." The man replied immediately.

The photo of the porcelain that the man sent was indeed good. It was initially estimated to be worth three hundred thousand. If I could get it, I could make a good profit by reselling it.

Lin Chuan thought about it and agreed: "Okay."
