After dinner, Li Yang almost fled back to his room.
Whether they know him or not, they will use various opportunities to say hello to Li Yang.
Some people had never seen Li Yang, but they knew Lin Lang, so they deliberately went to talk to Lin Lang. Lin Lang was also a smart man and immediately introduced Li Yang to everyone.
People who don’t know Li Yang or Lin Lang rely on their friends’ connections and find ways to talk to Li Yang. For example, some young collectors from Europe and the UK rely on Wang Yan’s connections.
, shook hands with Li Yang and met.
As a result, Li Yang basically didn't use his chopsticks that night. He only greeted people and kept saying things like "I've seen you for a long time" and "Nice to meet you". By the end of the sentence, Li Yang's mouth was almost numb.
"These people are so terrifying!"
Back in the room, Li Yang patted his chest vigorously. There were at least two hundred people in the big restaurant, and more than half of them came to shake hands with Li Yang. Before coming out, Lin Lang even teased him in a low voice, saying that he was now better than a celebrity.
The popularity is even hotter.
"Who made your results in the past two days so dazzling? They all want to take advantage of your luck!"
Wang Jiajia helplessly helped Li Yang put away his clothes. Because of her relationship with Li Yang, there were many people talking to her tonight, and she didn't eat much at the moment.
"luck!"
Li Yang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head again.
Yesterday's Kirin Gold Star Inkstone and today's three pieces of jade, there is indeed an element of luck in them, but Li Yang's biggest reliance is his special ability. Without special ability, these lucks will never happen.
Some of the people who said hello to Li Yang today and want to get to know him do want to get his luck, but most of them are curious about Li Yang. The International Treasure Appraisal Conference has not even been held yet, and there are people picking up things one after another.
I picked up jade worth 200 million US dollars. I'm afraid everyone wants to meet such a person.
Just two days after arriving in Toronto, Li Yang became a minor international celebrity.
Early the next morning, Li Yang went directly to Kahurun Chinatown. Bai Ming could not follow him this time. Li Yang went to study today, not to pick up leakage stones. They followed him out of boredom.
Not only did Bai Ming stay, Li Can and Liu Jun were also left in the hotel by Li Yang. Taking this opportunity, they should make friends with some famous international collectors and lay a solid foundation for their future.
If their auction company wants to do well, it is necessary to establish good relationships with these famous collectors. Now is the time for the two young people to establish their contacts.
Because of Li Yang's relationship, Li Can and Liu Jun easily integrated into this large circle, which was much better than they had imagined before.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yang showed up at the airport on time and took Mr. Huang back to the hotel.
The arrival of Huang Lao also means that all the Chinese expert representatives have arrived. When picking up Huang Lao, several important figures from the organizer came to the airport in person, and Lin Lang was also there.
From this point we can also see Huang Lao’s influence.
On the night that Mr. Huang arrived in Toronto, a special plane flying directly from China also landed at the airport. Zhao Yong, Zhao Kui, Haidong and several other Li Yang's exclusive bodyguards got off the plane.
On this plane, there are many priceless treasures, the most important of which is the jade seal secretly brought from China this time.
In addition to the imperial seal, the three divine swords brought by Li Yang are also top priority.
There were also some agents who came randomly. After the treasure arrived in Toronto, Lin Feng sent someone to take it over and temporarily stored it in a safe place.
The delivery of the treasure to the place also represents the approach of the International Treasure Appraisal Conference.
In the next two days, representatives of close collectors also came to Toronto. The name that everyone heard the most was Li Yang, and the things they heard the most were all related to Li Yang.
But in the past two days, Li Yang went out early and came back late every day, rarely appearing in front of people.
Even if he showed up, it would be with domestic expert representatives, and Li Yang would never dine with everyone in a large restaurant again.
On the other hand, Bai Ming and Li Can have become extremely active these days. Bai Ming has been telling stories a lot these days, and they are all about Li Yang.
The story of Li Yang and the national treasures and artifacts in his hands quickly spread from Bai Ming's mouth, which allowed all the experts participating in the conference to know more about Li Yang. The treasure appraisal conference has not yet begun.
Li Yang has become the most famous person among the expert representatives.
This also made everyone speculate on what kind of person Li Yang was.
And this time, what kind of treasures did Li Yang bring to participate in the treasure appraisal?
As the story continues to spread and everyone speculates, the day for the International Treasure Appraisal Conference has finally arrived. As the most recent focus, Li Yang is still sighing in his room.
In the past few days, he has been staying with old man Chen Chong, absorbing nutrients from old man Chen Chong.
Old man Chen Chong has rich experience, much better than Mr. Zhuo. In addition to jade, old man Chen Chong also has rich experience in several kinds of gemstones.
Myanmar is rich in jade and rubies, and rubies are another of Mr. Chen Chong’s strengths.
Because of the increasing appreciation of jade, more people in Myanmar are now paying attention to jade, and the influence of ruby has been weakened a lot. This is something that old man Chen Chong does not understand.
In fact, rubies were more famous than jade in Myanmar a long time ago. At that time, rubies were even the national stone of Myanmar and the most important gemstone.
Unfortunately, with the shortage of ruby mines and the sudden rise of jade, many mine merchants have now switched to jade, so that the output and value of rubies have stagnated.
It is only in recent years that the price of collected fiery rubies has also increased, making this situation better.
Li Yang himself had deep feelings about what the old man Chen Chong said.
Myanmar Yangon Jewelry Trading Center trades various gemstones abundant in Myanmar, and jade is just one kind.
But jadeite is currently the dominant one. When it comes to jewelry trading centers, everyone knows only the jadeite public sale, and few people care about other gemstones.
Even if there are trade exhibitions of other gemstones, jadeite will inevitably appear in them. Now in Myanmar, various other gemstones seem to have become accessories to jadeite.
This situation improved slightly last year due to the decrease in jadeite veins. As a result, the large-scale jadeite public sale not long ago brought the influence of jadeite back to the forefront. Li Yang believes that in the next few years, jadeite will still be the most important item in Myanmar.
The largest jewelry category, it dominates Myanmar’s jewelry market.
But this is beneficial to Li Yang.
The bigger and better the jade market in Myanmar is, the greater the profit he will make from the veins. Li Yang is not able to comment on this, so he can only promise old man Chen Chong that after he returns, he will get to know the other jade mines well.
Plant gems and study them carefully.

The Toronto Convention and Exhibition Center was particularly busy today.
Two hundred police officers are already in place at the Convention and Exhibition Center. The Toronto government also attaches great importance to this international treasure appraisal conference. In addition to sending additional police officers, the venue also has professional security, and the protection force is very strong.
The Toronto government also wants to use such activities to increase the city's international influence.
This is the first International Treasure Appraisal Conference. The official name is the ‘First International Ancient Artworks Exchange Conference’. What appears at this event are all ancient works of art, commonly known as antiques and curios.
Since it is ancient, modern artworks cannot be included.
In fact, there is no strict definition of antiques in the world. This is the case in China. The official has a general and broad definition, classifying antiques as "cultural relics". Antiques are cultural relics, but cultural relics are not necessarily antiques.
In addition to China, the same is true for many foreign countries.
The Japanese use World War II as a criterion. Things before World War II are antiques, and things after World War II are modern works of art.
Americans think that things from a hundred years ago are antiques. Greece is even more powerful. Only things from more than five hundred years ago can be called antiques, or curios. They think that their history is too rich, and things that are less than 100 years old cannot be called antiques.
Consider it a standard.
In addition to appraising treasures and appreciating treasures from all over the world, this treasure appraisal conference also has a unified standard for the age of antiques. This standard is not necessarily officially recognized, but as long as there is a consensus among their collectors,
It will definitely become an official standard in the future.
Therefore, among the people who came to participate in the event this time, there were important members of collection associations from various places.
Among the Chinese expert representatives, Mr. Zhou is the person in charge of this matter. A small meeting was held in China for this purpose. The opinion of Chinese collectors is that based on the standard of one year, anything sixty years ago can be called antiques.
Exists as an ancient work of art.
This time is similar to the founding of the People's Republic of China, and is also very similar to the recognition of many domestic collectors.
If it doesn't work, just order it for a hundred years, so that the standard in China will be almost the same as that of the Republic of China. This is also something that many domestic collectors can accept.
However, the final number of quotas needs to be discussed by representatives of various countries.
Li Yang knew all these things, but he didn't pay special attention to it. In Li Yang's opinion, the age limit was not important, what was important was the value of the artwork itself.
But since some people pay attention to this matter, let them discuss it. If there is a unified standard, it will still be helpful to the future market.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Li Yang left the hotel on time.
The Chinese representative team has its own luxury bus, and the experts who came to the conference have all taken their treasures back, which are now packed in boxes.
When Li Yang got on the bus, he was followed by six bodyguards. Among them, Zhao Yong, Zhao Kui and Haidong all held rectangular boxes in their hands. Inside were the three bodyguards Li Yang brought this time.
Excalibur.
As a result, Li Yang attracted everyone's joking and laughter as soon as he got on the bus. Among the experts who came to participate in the event this time, Li Yang was probably the most powerful. There were experts from other countries with bodyguards, but not as many as Li Yang.

Second update, and third update.
I went out temporarily for something and didn't come back until after 11 o'clock. The update time is a bit late. Xiaoyu apologizes to everyone in advance. The exciting prelude is about to begin. Xiaoyu will continue to stay up late today to code. I will definitely do it if I promise!
On the last day, the last twenty-three hours, I urge my friends to give their last blessing to Xiaoyu. With your support, no matter how hard or tiring it is, Xiaoyu thinks it is worth it.
