Luo Tian did not expect that Chang Lao would visit his antique shop in person. When he arrived at the store, Chang Lao was walking around the store with his hands behind his back. Ding Cheng didn't seem to know Chang Lao's origin.
It’s no wonder that customers have the same attitude. After all, Ding Cheng has little experience and is far inferior to Lao Zhang and A Yi in judging people.
At this time, Chang Laozheng became interested in a snuff bottle on the shelf on the left. He had been standing there for five or six minutes. Luo Tian was very familiar with this snuff bottle. This was before he entered Xie's Auction Company.
I "picked it up" from the ghost market. This time the antique shop opened. In order to enrich the store, I put it on the shelf. However, after so many days, no one has taken a fancy to this snuff bottle.
An expert is worthy of being an expert. As soon as Chang Lao came, he found that this snuff bottle was different. Luo Tian felt a little emotional and immediately went up to greet him: "Chang Lao, you are here."
Only then did Chang Lao react from his deep thoughts. When he saw Luo Tian, he smiled without hesitation: "Luo Tian, is this snuff bottle?"
"I picked this up from a ghost market before. To be honest with Chang Lao, I am very interested in snuff bottles, so I keep them for collection." Luo Tian told the truth.
"Good taste." Chang Lao nodded: "Whether it is the age or the artistic value of the inner painting, this snuff bottle is outstanding. It seems that you still have two brushes."
Luo Tian was very proud, because he picked this snuff bottle with his own ability before he obtained the superpower. This was a piece of evidence that he had the power. It was a very rare piece of evidence, and now he had it.
With Chang Lao's recognition, one can imagine the pride in Luo Tian's heart.
"Please correct me, Mr. Chang." Luo Tian said modestly.
Chang Lao picked up the snuff bottle, played with it carefully, and then said: "This snuff bottle is made of jade. In our country, jade snuff bottles began in Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, so if you meet someone who says that his jade snuff bottle
If it is earlier than this era, it must be a fake."
Luo Tian nodded repeatedly: "Yes." When Luo Tian found this snuff bottle at the night market, he thought it was a fake. Mainly because the local stall owner said it was produced by Kangxi. Fortunately, he had an idea at the time and did not mistake it for a fake.
I thought it was a fake, but fortunately the person setting up the stall said so, and no one else was interested in it, so Luo Tian bought it at a low price.
"Your snuff bottle uses jade as the lid. This is also a unique feature of jade snuff bottles. There are paintings and calligraphy on the inner wall. Both the paintings and calligraphy have the poetry of the Tang Dynasty. It is very artistic. The style seems to be Beijing style."
When appreciating snuff bottles, in addition to looking at the material and appearance, the most important thing is to look at the artistic style of the inner paintings. Chinese snuff bottles are divided into four schools - Beijing School, Lu School, Yi School and Cantonese School. The Beijing School has both poems, calligraphy and paintings.
The biggest feature of the Lu School is the use of glazes on porcelain to paint interior walls. The Yi School uses fine dyeing, accurate shapes, and elegant styles. The Cantonese School is famous for its bright colors and decorative styles.
The inner calendar of Luo Tian's snuff bottle is a combination of painting and poetry, which is in line with the Beijing style. Chang Lao's insights convinced Luo Tian. It is still the same old saying, old is still hot. Luo Tian nodded repeatedly: "I have learned a lesson."
.”
Chang Lao chuckled and put the snuff bottle back in its place: "Okay, I hope someone with good knowledge will take it away in the future."
"By the way, why did Chang Lao come today?" Luo Tian then brought up the business. It is said that he would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. What's more, a person like Chang Lao spends his days either appreciating antiques or looking after others, or
I'm just attending various antique auctions or being a TV guest on a TV station. I'm busy!!
"Ah, I don't know if Brother Bozhai has ever mentioned to you that I want you to join the Antiques Association as a member." Chang Lao got straight to the point.
Luo Tian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated: "I have mentioned it before, but..."
"We don't have accurate information, do we?" Chang Lao smiled considerately: "You also know these things about the association. To be honest, we are all old men, and some of us are even about to enter the army.
Gu, everyone is a little confused when a young and strong young man like you is suddenly added to the party."
"So what is the result of the discussion now?" In fact, Luo Tian vaguely guessed that if there was no good result, Chang Lao would not make this trip himself.
"With your kid's intelligence, you can naturally think of it." Chang Lao shook his head: "I won't slander you. We have decided to admit you as a member. The voting process is thrilling, but you are the final winner."
Great, Luo Tian yelled in his heart, this means that he has truly stepped into the core of this circle. Entering this group of seniors, he can take another step forward, not in the city, province, but the whole country or even the whole country.
worldwide.
Chang Lao took out a piece of paper from his bag: "Now you only need to sign and fingerprint it, and you will officially become a member of our Antiques Association. Of course, correspondingly, you will also need to be responsible for the association in the future.
"
There is no free lunch in the world. Luo Tian understands this truth. After joining the association, he will have to participate in some internal treatment matters of the association. When necessary, it also requires a little investment, both in terms of money and energy, but
These are nothing compared to the huge rewards gained by joining the association.
Luo Tian took the agreement, scanned it quickly, signed his name and pressed his fingerprint. In this way, the business card had to be reprinted.
Chang Lao checked the agreement with satisfaction and put it into his bag after confirming that it was correct. He said meaningfully: "Luo Tian, don't embarrass us in the future."
Luo Tian also understood this "we". Chang Lao, his godfather and Xu Dashan must have voted for themselves. Correspondingly, some people were naturally unwilling to agree. Luo Tian nodded affirmatively: "Please rest assured, Chang Lao.
I will never embarrass you."
Chang Lao nodded: "In that case, I will go upstairs to see Bozhai first. You can do your work."
Luo Tian watched Chang Lao go upstairs, inexplicably excited. He picked up his phone and wanted to share it with others, but he felt melancholy. There were only a few people there. Luo Tian edited a text message and sent it to the recipients.
It's Xie Ming, Han Bing, Chen Xiaoying, He Pingwei, and... Luo Tian accidentally selected He Keer's number, and pressed it again accidentally. When the message sending status came up, Luo Tian was a little confused.
Annoyed, this He Keer must laugh at himself and stick to her!!
Seeing Luo Tian standing there smiling for a while, frowning for a while, and looking weird for a while, Ding Cheng walked to Luo Tian curiously: "Boss, are you okay?"
Luo Tian quickly put the phone away as if he were a thief: "It's okay."
"Boss, you are like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy now." Ding Cheng and Luo Tian have become so familiar that they dare to say anything.
"It's too much to take care of, just take your class." Ding Cheng is becoming more and more reliable. Luo Tian thinks that if he works harder, this Ding Cheng might be his support. With him around, he can pull away.
