Luo Tian collected all the red sandalwood. In fact, there were not many parts, but some were incomplete. "Can these be reassembled? It's a pity that they are scattered here like this."
Zhou Bozhai picked up a piece and asked Luo Tian to take a closer look: "This chair is not as simple as putting it back together. You see, it is full of cracks. Putting it back together only accelerates their cracking. Putting it here is just to preserve them."
.”
Luo Tian was enlightened. Blindly pursuing completeness may not be a good thing. He benefited a lot. Luo Tian saw the porcelain fragments on the ground again: "What about these?"
"These are the antiques that were confiscated by our Zhou family during the Cultural Revolution. These were all produced at the entrance of Jingdezhen Kiln in the Qing Dynasty. Those bastards didn't know a thing, but they were all smashed!! My father and I went there in the dark.
I picked it up secretly and originally wanted to stick it back, but I was afraid of attracting other people's attention and being reported, so I had to hide all the fragments in the wall. After the Cultural Revolution, these fragments were revealed again."
"Stayed until now?" Luo Tian didn't understand.
"You young people know that antiques can make money. Yes, if handled properly, the value of an antique can be doubled several times, dozens or hundreds of times! But what is really important about antiques is the time and background attached to it.
Story, if you look at the antiques that have fetched sky-high prices in recent years, you will know that the historical background is very important, just like the items for Li Shimin’s wedding, the value of those wedding items doubled because of this background.”
As soon as he mentioned this, Luo Tian knew that Zhou Bozhai was referring to the Tang Dynasty screen. He didn't say a word, thinking that Zhou Bozhai would take him to see that screen next.
Luo Tian felt that he would be disrespecting his talents by not becoming a fortune teller, so Zhou Bozhai became more interested: "Come, come, come, I will show you something."
Zhou Bozhai took Luo Tian downstairs and came to the secret room that Zhou Hong had taken him to. Luo Tian felt like he was acting now. He was a little embarrassed to act like he was seeing the screen for the first time. Fortunately, his character was not
The kind of person who is very happy and angry. As soon as the door opens and the screen appears, he slightly opens his mouth: "What a magnificent screen!"
Of course, the ivory, jade, jade, gold and silver embellishments on it are priceless. Seeing Luo Tian's reaction, Zhou Bozhai was very satisfied: "What do you think of this screen?"
"Treasure, a complete treasure. The inscription on the screen clearly states the happiness of the whole dynasty, plus the date. This is a wedding gift for Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. From the design and gorgeous decoration of this screen, it is full of royal style.
." Luo Tian admired from the bottom of his heart: "Just the few green spots on it are priceless, plus its background and historical era, this is a priceless treasure!"
"I knew it wouldn't be difficult for you. Actually, I didn't ask you to come down because I wanted to test you. I just wanted to ask you for help." Zhou Bozhai's serious expression shocked Luo Tian all over.
"Please?"
"I am getting older. Zhou Hong has no interest in the antique business at all. Qifangzhai cannot close. This is my father's last wish. Unfortunately, no one takes the lead. When we first met, I did not expect that we would have such a deep fate."
,Now, I want to hand Qifangzhai into your hands!!"
What? This should be a pie falling from the sky, but Luo Tian was not knocked unconscious. Instead, his nerves suddenly became tense and he stuttered when he spoke: "But..."
"You don't have to, but, I know, you think I will force you to marry Honghong, don't you?"
"..."
"Now is the time for young people to work hard for their careers. I understand that it is best for you and Honghong to get married now. If you can't, it doesn't matter." Zhou Bozhai patted Luo Tian on the shoulder: "You better think about it."
This is not a pie in the sky, it is clearly a big problem falling from the sky. Marrying Zhou Hong is not difficult, but Zhou Hong must think that he married Qifangzhai because of her, which will lead to a big misunderstanding.
, No relationship? If you don’t have a relationship, why are you dating her? Isn’t this playing with other people’s feelings? Doesn’t you become an emotional liar?
My personal ladygaga, Luo Tian was speechless for a moment.
"Young man, let's have dinner together tonight. We want to have a good chat." Zhou Bozhai locked the darkroom, opened the door, and started to welcome guests again. As soon as the door opened, someone came in and looked around. Zhou Bozhai didn't go up to talk. In this situation, only
The merchant will only talk to the customer when he or she asks for a price.
Zhou Hong ran over and pulled Luo Tian aside: "What did my dad say to you inside?"
"Nothing special, basic investigation, plus treat me to dinner." Luo Tian hesitated: "By the way... I talked about our affairs."
"What's going on between us?" Zhou Hong pointed at Zhou Bozhai: "Don't he know everything?"
"It's not about this, it's about whether we are willing to go further."
Going one step further? Zhou Hong is a smart woman, how could she not know? Her expression changed, which made Luo Tian wonder again, why was she unhappy?
