Chapter 1053 Surprising News

Professor Gao thought for a while and said, "Master Chu, do you have time now?"

"Professor Gao, I'm really sorry, I have something to do later."

Chu Chen shook his head. The reason why he agreed to Jiang Jiachang was because for him, it didn't take much time to verify the authenticity of a painting, and it didn't affect his meeting with Wu Ke and the others.But if we help Professor Gao identify it again, the delay will be a bit long, and he will naturally refuse.

Regarding Chu Chen's answer, Professor Gao felt a little regretful, but he did not persuade him much. The main reason for this was that Chu Chen was too young. Although the explanation just now was logical, but it is obvious that he must completely agree with Chu Chen. It cannot be achieved in a short time.

At this time, Jiang Jiachang said quickly: "Professor Gao, if it's convenient, you can bring that painting to me, and I'll help you ask an authoritative expert to appraise it."

"Will this be too much trouble?" After all, the painting belonged to his elders, not him, Professor Gao felt a little embarrassed.

"Where, where." Jiang Jiachang smiled and waved his hands: "This is how I do business. If I don't do it, I will try to do my best. Since I handled this painting, I must make you feel at ease." Just do it."

Professor Gao was very satisfied with Jiang Jiachang's statement. He thought that doing business with someone like Jiang Jiachang would be safe. If this matter could be resolved satisfactorily, he would definitely ask Jiang Jiachang first if he needed antiques in the future. Let's talk about Jiachang.

"Thank you, Boss Jiang, when can I bring the painting over?" Professor Gao asked.

Jiang Jiachang pondered for a while and said, "I guess it will be the day after tomorrow, do you think it's possible?"

"Okay, then the day after tomorrow..."

After Professor Gao left, Chu Chen and the others also bid farewell to Jiang Jiachang, and then they were sent to Wu Ke and the others in a car arranged by Jiang Jiachang.

…………

In a blink of an eye, it was Thursday. After a few days of traveling, Wu Ke and the others had already visited all the famous scenic spots in Haojing, and they all had a good time.

Although Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui didn't go to the scenic spots together because of the delay, they are not the kind of people who like to travel. In addition, they will have more time to travel in the trenches in the future, so they don't feel anything about it. Regrettably.

In addition, Chu Chen has a lot of things to do, and the tenth of next month will be his big wedding with Wu Ke. Although the couple basically don't need to worry about the marriage, they still need to prepare. Therefore, next During this period of time, Chu Chen was quite tense.

In this way, everyone ended their trip to Haojing. Zhao Qirui booked air tickets for everyone at three o'clock this afternoon, and the time before three o'clock was dedicated to shopping.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Xiangjiang comes to mind when it comes to shopping paradise, but in fact, the shopping charm of Haojing is unstoppable. Because of the low tax rate policy, it has created a shopping environment full of surprises and high-quality goods at low prices.

The more popular commodities on the market are jewelry, clothing, toys, antiques, antique furniture and electronic products.In most stores where prices are not clearly marked, discounts are usually available upon request.In most small shops, haggling is extremely common.

In addition, the prices of Haojing and Xiangjiang are basically the same, but the exchange rate of Haojing is a little lower, so it is cheaper.Although the exchange rate is not much lower, the savings are all small money, but the accumulation of small amounts of money can not be completely ignored by shoppers.

Of course, there will always be some dark places around the world. For example, if you are traveling in a group, some tour guides will take tourists to shopping places before leaving the country. The manufacturing workshop set up here under the environment of low customs tariffs, the things here are sold to consumers at ex-factory prices.

In fact, all kinds of branded products inside are fake products at first glance, but there are always some tourists from the mainland who don’t know the truth.Therefore, this also requires special care.

Of course, Chu Chen and the others would not go shopping in this kind of place. They went to T Galleria in Haojing. There are two T Gallerias here. The former is the famous DFS Global Duty Free Store. They are also very close.One is on the first floor of Four Seasons, and the other is on the first floor of City of Dreams.

Considering the time, they only went to Four Seasons Famous Store.

Next, Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui witnessed what is called shopping spree.As the saying goes, there are three women in one drama, not to mention the eccentric Zhao Heyan.In the blink of an eye, everyone's hands were full of handbags. Fortunately, these things could be delivered to the hotel, otherwise Chu Chen's physical strength would be enough.

In this way, after shopping for more than an hour, Zhao Qirui already yelled that he couldn't take it anymore with a sad face.Regarding this, Zhao Heyan said with a smile that this was his punishment for not giving them gifts.

"I said, Ah Chen, you're just too dishonest, isn't this trapping me in an injustice!" Zhao Qirui complained.

Seeing his uncle's distressed expression, Chu Chen smiled and said, "I can't help it. If I had told you that day, how could you have given me those jewelry!"

Zhao Qirui said angrily: "How do you know I won't let you? Besides, after you paid the money, why didn't you remind me, so I can be prepared!"

"Isn't that forgotten by the one after another?"

Seeing a sly look in his uncle's eyes, Chu Chen said with a smile, "Just tell me what compensation you want."

"Hey, you..." Zhao Qirui was about to make a request when his cell phone rang, and when he took it out, it turned out that it was Jiang Jiachang's call.

Thinking that Jiang Jiachang must go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, he asked straightforwardly: "Fatty Jiang, what's wrong with you?"

"This...Mr. Zhao, I want to ask Young Master Chu for help!"

"Didn't you say that you hired two experts, why do you need emergency help?"

Jiang Jiachang smiled wryly and said: "There is no way, they are sticking to their own opinions now, and they can't decide the result at all. I didn't want to bother Young Master Chu, but the experts I know don't have time now, so I can only ask Young Master Chu for help." Helped."

"Ah Chen, what do you think of Fatty Jiang asking you to go there to help?" Hearing that this was the case, Zhao Qirui turned his head and asked Chu Chen.

"no!"

Before Chu Chen could speak, Zhao Heyan jumped over and refused, snatched Zhao Qirui's cell phone, and said, "Uncle fat! My brother and my sister-in-law are preparing to buy some things for the wedding. If my brother comes to your place for appraisal , then how can my sister-in-law discuss it alone?"

Jiang Jiachang was surprised and said: "Ah! I'm so sorry! I really don't know about this matter, so I'll think of other ways!"

"Count you acquainted!"

Zhao Heyan snorted, and then returned the phone to Zhao Qirui.

"You know, it's not that I don't agree to this." Zhao Qirui said with a smile.

Jiang Jiachang quickly said: "It's okay, it's okay. If I had known that Young Master Chu had something important to do, I wouldn't have bothered him. Please help me speak with Young Master Chu..."

When Zhao Qirui hung up the phone, Zhao Heyan said with a smile: "Dad, I'm here to help my brother and sister-in-law, and I didn't mean to let you lose this chance to escape."

"You girl, who do you think your father is!" Zhao Qirui scolded with a smile, then pulled Chu Chen aside, and said softly: "September is my wedding anniversary with your aunt, I want you to help carve For a set of jewelry, I can prepare the materials myself, what do you think?"

"It's definitely not a problem!" Chu Chen definitely couldn't let go of this kind of thing, he said, "Let me prepare the materials for you, too."

"That's not acceptable. If you all come, it would appear that I'm too insincere." Zhao Qirui shook his head resolutely.

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Then you can just pay me for the materials. After all, I have a lot of materials and it's easier to find them."

Zhao Qirui thought about it, nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it like this."

At this time, Gao Yiya shouted not far away: "Hey, what are you two doing muttering there? Are you discussing how to be lazy?"

"Come on, come on! What you said, how could we do such a shameless thing..."

Then the crazy shopping mode started, and the shopping lasted until past twelve o'clock at noon. During the period, they went to the lounge to order drinks and some snacks. They enjoyed it beautifully and then went out to fight again. At lunch, the whole person was a little paralyzed.

In the private room of the hotel, Zhao Heyan looked radiant, as if shopping had no effect on her at all, she said with a smile: "Dad, you have been shopping for a long time, and you are so tired .I think you should exercise hard after you go home, otherwise you will be almost like a fat uncle."

Zhao Qirui said speechlessly: "I said you Xiaoyan, you are too embarrassing for your father."

Gao Yiya giggled and said, "I think Xiaoyan is right. Look at your belly, it's much bigger than before. If you don't exercise, I think it's really possible to compete with Fatty Jiang."

Seeing everyone's smiles, Zhao Qirui looked at his stomach again, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, okay, I'll exercise at the head office when I have time when I go back."

"What does it mean to have time? From now on, you will follow Ah Chao when he exercises early."

Gao Yiya then said to Ah Chao who was sitting by the side: "A Chao, remember to supervise him when you go back, do you know?"

"Okay, I see." Ah Chao said with a smile.

"Huh!" Zhao Qirui snorted, and did not express any opinions. On the one hand, exercising is really good for him, and on the other hand, no matter how much he argues at this time, the result is still the same, so it is better to save some energy.

The restaurant served food very quickly, but everyone ate at a fast pace, especially Zhao Heyan, who was still alive and well just now, seemed to have not eaten for ten days and a half months, and kept stuffing delicious food into her mouth , Everyone was amused by the appearance of eating.

Padding their stomachs, everyone's chopsticks slowed down. The women began to discuss the things they bought just now, and Zhao Qirui and Chu Chen chatted about business matters.

Zhao Qirui and Chu Chen clinked wine glasses, and then said, "Ah Chen, let's just leave those salvaged porcelain?"

"Otherwise, what should we do?" Chu Chen said.

"What I mean is, should we do something? For example, do you have any good ways to hype Haidao Porcelain?" Zhao Qirui said.

If Hai Lao Porcelain is a variety of low value, Chu Chen is still quite resistant to hype, but Hai Lao Porcelain is actually a type of porcelain whose market value does not match the actual value, so as long as it is controlled well, the temporary hype It doesn't hurt either.

Chu Chen thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Actually, this matter is relatively easy for you."

"Easy? How easy?" Zhao Qirui couldn't figure it out.

Chu Chen said: "It's very simple, let the country carry out the archaeological excavation of the shipwreck, and let the TV stations and newspapers focus on reporting it, so people's attention will be focused on it. Is it afraid that no one will pay attention to the porcelain in the sea? In addition, my museum can set up a hailao porcelain exhibition hall for publicity, which can also play a role."

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Zhao Qirui immediately knew that this matter was very feasible. He patted Chu Chen's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Your brain is still flexible. I will take care of this matter when I go back. We can wait and count the money."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then Zhao Qirui asked again: "By the way, Mr. Liu seems to have called before, right? Is there something about Cai Jianxuan?"

"That's it."

Chu Chen said: "You may not have imagined that the owner of the antique shop who sold the Thai bottle back then is probably the same person as the old man who is related to Su Changtou this time."

"What? No way?!"

Hearing the news, Zhao Qirui exclaimed in shock, which also alarmed the others at the table.

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Zhao Heyan leaned over and asked.

"That's what happened..." Chu Chen repeated the matter to everyone.

Everyone was quite surprised when they heard that this was the case. Wu Ke said: "No way, didn't you say that this person has gone abroad? Why is he still staying in Haojing? Besides, why is he so silent? Did it ring back?"

Chu Chen shook his head: "The master said that the investigators only discovered this situation after comparing them. However, although the two are very similar in terms of body shape and appearance, it is also possible that they are indeed the same person." Only ninety percent."

Zhao Heyan said: "The possibility of [-]% is already very high, I think it is basically the same person."

Zhao Qirui said: "Who can say for sure? What if they are just two similar people? If the investigation on the original person is relaxed because of this, wouldn't a key clue be lost for nothing?"

The others nodded in agreement, but presumably the police would not give up the clues because of this.

At this time, Gao Yiya said: "I'm really curious, how did that person escape the police investigation in normal times, did he stay in the house and never come out?"

Chu Yulan said with a smile: "I usually wear makeup, but if I want to have a thorough plastic surgery, it's fine."

Zhao Heyan giggled: "He is an old man, what plastic surgery is he doing, can he still be 50 years old from 20 years old?"

Wu Ke said with a smile: "Don't tell me, I really saw this kind of thing on the news, and because the customs didn't recognize it, I was suspected of forging passports and under investigation. Because there are so many things like this, plastic surgery hospitals have begun to treat customers. Open the 'Certificate of Plastic Surgery' to help customers pass the entry-exit customs inspection smoothly."

Hearing this, Zhao Huayan was very surprised and said: "No way, the plastic surgery is already so powerful now? If it continues like this, won't it be immortal?"

"How is this possible." Gao Yiya said with a smile: "If you cut your double eyelids, get a mole or something, it won't make any difference. If you turn 50 into 20, the change will be big, and it will happen when you get older. If there are sequelae, such as slanted eyes and crooked mouth, if it is more serious, it will even disfigure your face!"

Zhao Qirui took over the conversation and said: "If you want me to say, unless it is because of an injury or a congenital defect, then plastic surgery is nothing. In other cases, it's better not to have plastic surgery. If you are not married, no matter how you get it done, the children born in the future will also be fine." It’s impossible to change into her (his) appearance after plastic surgery, how to solve it then?”

Wu Ke said with a smile: "Didn't it mean that there is a plastic surgery hospital that can issue a certificate, and it will be fine to just throw out the certificate at that time. The rice is already cooked. What's the matter, anyway, the child can't return the product."

"Haha." Chu Chen laughed with everyone for a while. When he talked about the plastic surgery, a vague light flashed in his mind, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what it was, which made him a little distressed. .

While Chu Chen was thinking hard, Zhao Qirui asked, "Ah Chen, did Mr. Liu tell you where that man went now?"

Chu Chen came back to his senses, and shook his head: "No, I haven't found out where that person came from, or just disappeared out of thin air, which is quite strange."

Zhao Qirui sighed after hearing the words: "Hey! I don't know when we can uproot Cai Jianxuan's gang!"

The longer Cai Jianxuan survives, the greater the harm it will be to the antique market. As an antique practitioner, Chu Chen is also a little anxious, but he is powerless about this matter, and he has nothing but helplessness in his heart.

I don't know if it was affected by Chu Chen's mood, everyone suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere in the room became a little dull.

At this time, the waiter came in and prepared to serve the food. Zhao Heyan's seat happened to be facing the door. She looked out of the door and said in surprise: "Hey, isn't that the fat uncle? Why is he also eating in this restaurant?"

Zhao Heyan's voice was a bit loud, and Jiang Jiachang's hearing was good. When everyone reacted, Jiang Jiachang walked into the private room with a look of surprise.

After saying hello, Zhao Qirui asked curiously: "I said Fatty Jiang, aren't you in the store, why did you come here?"

Jiang Jiachang smiled wryly and said, "Isn't it because of that painting? I asked someone to find an appraisal expert who lives here, but the other party couldn't be sure after looking at it for a long time."

Zhao Qirui said with a smile: "Who are you looking for? Fu Baoshi's figure paintings are so distinctive that even three experts can't confirm them? Besides, compare the "Tu of Erxiang" you handled, and it's almost the same. Can you judge the authenticity, or do you not believe the results given by my nephew?"

"How could I not believe it!" Jiang Jiachang waved his hands again and again to indicate that this was not the case, and then said in a low voice with a bitter face: "The key point is that they don't believe the results given by Young Master Chu. To be honest, the "Travel of Erxiang" At the beginning, I just gave the friendship price, and I didn’t make much money. After today, the money I earned is about to go to waste.”

Zhao Qirui smiled and expressed his disbelief when he heard the words.

"Really, it's a puppy who lied to you." Jiang Jiachang swore.

Chu Chen chuckled: "Although I didn't see that painting, I can tell that there is something wrong with that painting based on what Professor Gao pointed out that day. Why is it so difficult to identify?"

Jiang Jiachang explained: "The time when the key painting was signed was before Fu Baoshi went to Jingang Slope. At that time, he had not fully established his own style of painting, so those few problems can be explained."

Zhao Qirui said: "You are also stupid, wouldn't you compare it with a work from a different period? Don't tell me how difficult this matter is for you."

"Hey! Why didn't I think of this!" Jiang Jiachang patted his forehead, but now that Chu Chen is present, there is no need to trouble him so much, he asked Chu Chen with a smile on his face: "Young Master Chu, please Please help me!"

Zhao Heyan said with some dissatisfaction: "Uncle Fat, you really know how to pick your time. Didn't you see that we haven't finished our meal yet?"

Jiang Jiachang quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, then I'll take them to the side to wait for a while."

Chu Chen stood up with a smile: "It's okay, I'm full, and we have to catch a plane later, let's settle this matter now."

Jiang Jiachang quickly expressed his thanks, because it was not convenient for identification here, so he went out with Chu Chen and Zuo Shan, planning to ask for another private room.In addition, Zhao Qirui confessed to the others and followed them out together.

After leaving the door, Chu Chen saw two people standing outside the door, one of them was Professor Gao, and the other was about the same age as Professor Gao, and they looked familiar.

After Jiang Jiachang introduced the two parties, and heard that this person was named Peng Fangyue, Chu Chen remembered that this person was the one that was auctioned last week, which was actually Zhang Daqian's imitation of Shi Tao's "Arhat Picture".

Peng Fangyue was also very impressed with Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui, especially Chu Chen, it was difficult for people to forget just based on his performance at the auction that day.But looking at it now, Chu Chen looks gentle and refined, and his attitude is more polite, he doesn't look like a dude at all.

Moreover, Chu Chen has no need to act now. In this case, Chu Chen's performance that day must have been pretending. As for why he did this, it is not difficult to guess based on Peng Fangyue's experience.

Originally, Peng Fangyue sneered when he heard that Chu Chen was only in his twenties.It's no wonder why the job of antique appraiser, the most important profession with experience, can be done by young people in their twenties?But now that he has made a new discovery, it is not impossible for him to think that Chu Chen is an appraiser...
