The school belle's heart thief

Chapter 143 Antique Market

After arriving at the Municipal Bureau, Jiang Hanxue interrogated the gangsters overnight, and Long Xiaoyu had no choice but to leave the Municipal Bureau after finishing the notes.

The next morning, Long Xiaoyu asked Xiao Chutong for leave, Xiao Chutong was quite dissatisfied, "Why are you so troubled recently? It's fine if you don't go to the evening self-study, but now you don't even go to class, how do you let me get along with those subjects?" Teacher Ren said? Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Hehe, my wife, there is something urgently needed for my company to deal with, so I will take a day off today, and I will definitely study hard in the future." Long Xiaoyu said with a smile.It was impossible for him to say that he was preparing a gift for Jiang Hanxue's parents, so he had to say that the company had something to do.

"Okay, then I will give you a day off! You are not allowed to ask for leave too often!" Xiao Chutong heard that it was a company matter, so she didn't ask further, and then she added, "Do you have time tonight?"

"Tonight? Is there something wrong?" Long Xiaoyu didn't understand what Xiao Chutong wanted to do.

"Principal Huang and Yin Hong invited us to dinner tonight. Principal Huang wanted to invite us before Chinese New Year, and now I just have time."

"Chu Tong, tell Principal Huang, I'll treat you tonight, let's just sit down together." Long Xiaoyu said, Huang Yifei is the principal after all, and there are still many places that need him in the future.

"Okay, you book a hotel and send me a message." Xiao Chutong was very satisfied with Long Xiaoyu's approach, and she hung up the phone.

Long Xiaoyu called Jiang Hanxue, but unexpectedly turned off the phone.Jiang Hanxue's father is a literati, what kind of gift do you like?By the way, go see the Four Treasures of the Study!

Long Xiaoyu took a taxi to the antique market.

Since the late 80s, folk collections have continued to heat up, and many antique markets have been born across the country. The Donghai Antique Market was established at that time.

This antique market covers a large area. There are shops and stalls. There are ancient jade ceramics, antique furniture, four treasures of the study, ancient calligraphy and paintings, old books and periodicals, relics of the Cultural Revolution, etc.Long Xiaoyu knew that most of the antiques market were imitations and handicrafts, and many antiques were old or even planted.For example, bronze wares can be buried in the ground to grow rusty shells.Porcelain can be soaked in seawater, allowing marine life to grow and age on it, making it look as if it had been salvaged from a sunken ship.In some places, even the whole village makes that kind of high-quality antique porcelain in batches. After being old-fashioned, it even deceives the experts who appraise antiques.

In the antique market, it’s all about eyesight. If you are lucky one day and find a leak that a seller didn’t see, then you will post it.But if you buy a high-quality imitation with the money you spent on buying antiques, then you will be "punched" and there is no place to reason about being cheated, because the antique market does not guarantee authenticity, which has been the rule since ancient times.

In Huaxia Kingdom, this is a vacuum zone that lacks supervision. The cultural relics department only has the appraisal, but has no right to manage the circulation of cultural relics. It is difficult for the industrial and commercial departments to distinguish the authenticity of cultural relics.

There were not many people visiting the antique market in the morning, so Long Xiaoyu wandered aimlessly.

In a "Hanmoxiang" shop that operates the Four Treasures of the Study, Long Xiaoyu looked casually.The owner of the shop is an old man in his 60s, with snow-white hair and wearing a Chinese-style double-breasted padded jacket, which is quite old-fashioned.Seeing Long Xiaoyu stop in front of the inkstone, the boss also looked Long Xiaoyu up and down.Long Xiaoyu is very handsome, wearing ordinary casual clothes, no brand can be identified, he is probably a high school or university student, and he doesn't have much spare money to play with antiques.

"Student, do you like inkstones? The inkstones here are cheap, and there are two or three hundred." The boss pointed to the side of the table, where there were some ordinary inkstones of poor quality.

"Boss, let me have a look at the Duan inkstone in the cabinet." Long Xiaoyu pointed to the Duan inkstone in the glass cabinet and said.

"Young man, this is a Duan Inkstone from the Ming Dynasty. It is an antique and very valuable. If you don't buy it, don't look at it." The boss shook his hand and immediately refused.

"Of course I want to buy it, how can I buy it without looking at it?" Long Xiaoyu rolled his eyes.

"Young man, this Fang Duan inkstone is worth 50 yuan. Do you have that much money?" The boss directly stated the price, trying to scare Long Xiaoyu away.

"Is 50 a lot of money?" Long Xiaoyu asked lightly.

The boss was taken aback, but immediately understood that this is a rich second generation!And he is a rich second generation who hides his wealth!He hastily changed his enthusiastic face, "Excuse me for my clumsy eyes, young master forgive me!"

The boss unlocked the glass cabinet door, and carefully held the square inkstone on the table in front of Long Xiaoyu, "This is an old pit inkstone from the Ming Dynasty. It is very valuable. This is the treasure of my shop!"

Long Xiaoyu checked it carefully, tapped it a few times with his fingers, and asked with a frown: "Boss, is this really your treasure?"

"Yes, master, what's the matter?" The boss was surprised.

"Your inkstone is not from the old pit at all, but from the Mazi pit, and it is from the dry pit. The color tone is lighter than the old pit, and the stripes and sounds are wrong." Long Xiaoyu liked Duan inkstone very much in his previous life, and he knew the identification of Duan inkstone very well. .

Duan inkstone is the first of the four famous inkstones. It began in the early Tang Dynasty and flourished in Song Dynasty. For more than 1000 years, from emperors, generals, literati, and ordinary people, Duan inkstone has been regarded as a treasure. It is easy to get, but hard to find.Duan inkstone is produced in Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province. Laokeng has the longest history and the best stone quality. Because it is produced in the deep valley, the jade skin is greasy and warm in the hand. In the middle of winter, the ink in other inkstones will freeze, while the Duan inkstone The ink in it remains the same.Since the late Tang Dynasty, the inkstone made by Laokeng has been listed as a tribute, so it is also called Huangyan.

Judging from the current price, the Duan inkstone in Laokeng is ten times higher than that in Mazikeng and Kengzaiyan, and a hundred times higher than that in other pits.

"This..." The boss wiped the cold sweat dripping from his forehead, "I didn't expect the young master to be so good at it, I'm ashamed!"

"Boss, how can such an inkstone be worth so much money?" Long Xiaoyu asked.

"Master, I have an inkstone here, please identify it." The boss opened the safe and took out the inkstone inside.

The whole body of this square inkstone is purple blue, with clear and clear texture, and its color seems to come out from the inkstone, giving people a sense of inner solidity and dignity.There are pavilions and pavilions carved on the top of the inkstone surface. Inside the pavilion, a person is wearing a commoner, holding a pen in his right hand, and is contemplating.Outside the pavilion, ancient pines stand tall and bamboos dance.On the back of the inkstone is engraved Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", which is inscribed for the third year of Mingqi.This is obviously the Duan Inkstone of Daxi Cave in Laokeng. The key point is that there are rare robin eyes and fish brain jelly!

Long Xiaoyu was very excited, but his face was still calm, and he asked casually: "Boss, what is the price of your square inkstone?"

"Young master, seeing how knowledgeable you are, I don't care how much you want, 50, one price!" The boss didn't dare to deceive Long Xiaoyu this time.

Long Xiaoyu didn't know the current market price of this Fang Duan inkstone, but he knew that even in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, this Fang Duan inkstone was regarded as a masterpiece among inkstones, so he nodded and swiped the gold card on the POS machine of the store .

"Boss, how did you get Fang Duanyan?" Long Xiaoyu asked.It is common practice to make up stories in the antique market, and they have already sold out, so the inquiry at this time should be the real situation.

"Young master, this Fang Duan inkstone is actually my treasure. I found it when I went to Taobao in the south of the Yangtze River in the early 80s. I spent 500 yuan at a farmhouse at night. I didn't know how to identify old pits at that time. I just like the Duan inkstone very much, but at that time, 500 yuan was still quite valuable. There was no antique market at that time, I just liked antiques, and I made some money from doing small business, so I bought some antiques. Later, the antique market opened From now on, I will work on it.” The boss asked Long Xiaoyu to sit on the mahogany chair in the shop, and made him a cup of Longjing tea.

"How could you be willing to sell such a precious treasure of the town store?" Long Xiaoyu felt very strange, because businessmen are very particular, and selling the treasure of the town shop means that there is no good feng shui, business It will go downhill.

"I don't want to do it anymore. My son needs a lot of money to stay in the hospital. I want to sell these stocks and close the business." The boss sighed.

"Oh, what disease does your son have?" Long Xiaoyu asked seemingly casually.

"...It should be fine to tell you. Young master, I fell in love with you, so let's talk about everything today. It's like this, my son was looking at the store for me a few days ago, and was injured by someone who collected protection money. Now the observation room of the hospital is not out of danger." The boss's eyes were red, "The daily medical expenses cost more than 3000, and how much money is not enough to spend like this!"

Long Xiaoyu frowned, "Who are the ones collecting the protection fee?"

"It belongs to the Four Seas Gang. The leader is Xue Jian. He is the head of this area. He is good-looking, but he is very violent. He beats up anyone who doesn't like him. The protection fee is also ridiculously high. It kills us shopkeepers." What a tragedy! I really can't continue." The boss said helplessly.

"Xue Jian?" Long Xiaoyu felt that the name was very familiar, and quickly remembered, isn't Xia Ning's husband also called Xue Jian?The hooligan who beat her to death and called her a chicken that couldn't lay eggs is also from the Four Seas Gang, so he must be this person!

"Yes, young master, you must keep it a secret. You can't afford to mess with those people! Not only do I not want to do it anymore, but many owners of the antique market have this idea. They have worked hard to earn some money and let them search it. Everyone discusses it. Go to the market in the provincial capital."

"These hooligans! Don't the police care?" Long Xiaoyu said bitterly.

"The police? Oh, I don't care at all! My son was injured, and I had no choice but to call the police. This time I stabbed a hornet's nest. Xue Jian said that I should get out within ten days, otherwise my shop will be destroyed." It's broken!" The boss said with a long sigh.

"It's so irritating!" Long Xiaoyu was so angry that he pinched his fingers and rattled.

Suddenly, there was a lot of people outside, and a burst of footsteps approached like raindrops, "Bang!" The signboard at the door of "Hanmoxiang" was cut off with a knife, and there was a loud shout——

"Old man Liu, why haven't you left yet, you old bastard?"

Unexpectedly, the time difference between Xinjiang and the mainland is nearly two hours away. I am going to bed at two o'clock in the evening, so hurry up and write. Please support me again, thank you!
