After hanging up the phone at home, before Chen Ran could take a sip of water, his cell phone suddenly rang. After the call was answered, the other party claimed to be a courier from the EMS express delivery logistics company and asked him to sign for the items.
Chen Ran was a little strange. He didn't ask anyone to mail him anything, and no one said they wanted to mail him anything... Feeling strange, Chen Ran asked the other party, but the other party didn't know anything about it, and asked who gave it to him.
It was mailed, and the other party said he didn't know. When asked what it was, the other party said he didn't know. When asked where it was mailed, the other party still said he didn't know.
This made Chen Ran even more puzzled. If someone mailed something to him, then the courier company should know the origin of the sender. Even if they didn't know, they should know where it was mailed from, but they didn't even know.
This had to make Chen Ran wonder if someone was playing a prank on him. Based on this speculation, he left a message with the courier to wait until I got back and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ran couldn't think of a reason after thinking about it, so he didn't think about it for the time being.
When he arrived in Hangzhou, it was already seven o'clock in the morning the next day. Chen Ran did not stop in Hangzhou and immediately rushed to Hangzhou Airport.
Unexpectedly, on the way to the airport, Chen Ran received a call from Mr. Yang, the strange old man.
When Chen Ran left, he left the contact information for the strange old man. The strange old man called Chen Ran and first told Chen Ran that Madman Yang's condition had obviously improved a lot. He was currently receiving treatment in the hospital and was in the hospital.
I woke up last night. Although I am still a little demented, I am no longer unable to live without seeing his antiques as before.
After talking about Crazy Yang's current situation, just when he was about to hang up the phone, the strange old man suddenly asked if the cup collected by Chen Ran was the Flower God Cup?
Although Chen Ran was a little strange, he didn't hide it and said yes.
After receiving an affirmative answer, the strange old man asked Chen Ran if he wanted more. He said that a friend of his also had three such cups in his collection. If Chen Ran wanted them, he would ask for them.
Chen Ran was a little surprised. If it was really the Flower God Cup from the Kangxi period, he would definitely want it, but he didn’t know if it was... Chen Ran asked about it, and the strange old man said that it was from the Kangxi period, and that his friend was him.
Bing Wazi, who used to be my subordinate, is now very famous in the Tianjin collection circle...
The meaning of these words was undoubtedly to tell Chen Ran that the three Flower God Cups collected by his friend were definitely authentic, and the other party did not dare to lie to him.
The strange old man said this. Although Chen Ran was still a little skeptical, he didn't want to miss such an opportunity. Now that he was still in Hangzhou, he naturally didn't want to go to Tianjin again. It happened that Bai Lei was still in the capital, so
Let him take a trip.
I told the strange old man about this and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ran suddenly realized that the strange old man's purpose in calling him was clearly to repay him.
The matter about the Flower God Cup is probably because Madman Yang's situation has improved and the other party wanted to repay him and helped him inquire about it.
Chen Ran had a pretty good guess. When Chen Ran left, the strange old man asked Aunt Chen in detail when Madman Yang started to change, and when Madman Yang got the piece.
In the soul bottle, Aunt Chen told the strange old man that these antiques collected by Madman Yang were recorded. The strange old man found a pair of notebooks in which Madman Yang recorded the antiques, and found out that just as Chen Ran said, Aunt Chen felt that Yang
The time when Madman changed happened to be half a month after this soul bottle was collected by Madman Yang, and this soul bottle was also the last antique collected by Madman Yang. This undoubtedly shows that Madman Yang really suffered from this thing when he became like this.
Influence.
In the past, I blamed the old man for trying to persuade Crazy Yang, but Crazy Yang didn't listen, so he angrily stopped caring about Crazy Yang. Now that he knows what's going on, he won't ignore Crazy Yang anymore...
In the eyes of the strange old man, Chen Ran has undoubtedly become a veritable expert. Helping Chen Ran inquire about the Flower God Cup is not only to repay Chen Ran, but also to make friends. Such an expert,
Undoubtedly, anyone would want to build some connections with him. Not only does he have good medical skills, but he also understands Feng Shui.
Needless to say, medical skills are used to save lives. In the eyes of the strange old man, Chen Ran's "medical skills" are obviously miraculous and cannot be compared with those doctors in the hospital. As for Feng Shui, before this, the strange old man did not
He didn't really believe it, but after experiencing this incident, he naturally believed it. Of course, he only believed in Chen Ran's Feng Shui technique, but others still didn't believe it.
Wanting to repay Chen Ran and build a relationship with Chen Ran, he naturally thought of Chen Ran's flower god cup. He didn't know much about antiques, so he asked his former subordinate Bing Wazi to find out.
The Bingwazi collection under his hand contains three Flower God Cups...
After calling Bai Lei to wake him up from bed and explaining to him, Chen Ran got on the 8 o'clock morning flight of China Southern Airlines and flew to Zhongdu.
After coming out of Zhengzhou Airport, Chen Ran quickly called Bai Lei and learned on the phone that this guy was already in Tianjin and had met the strange old man.
I have also received the three flower cups from the antique shop, but they are a bit expensive. Three flower cups, a lotus cup, a rose cup, and a narcissus cup cost 1.2 million.
This was the price I got it at the auction, so it was a bit expensive, but it was still within Chen Ran's acceptance range.
The three Flower God Cups owned by the strange old man have also been confirmed to be important weapons from the official kilns of the Kangxi Dynasty. Of course, it was not Bai Lei who saw this, but after meeting the real owner, Bai Lei called Mr. Bai's friends to find out.
After a moment, I realized that this rightful owner is indeed very famous. If so, the other party would not miss him.
Chen Ran first found a bank and transferred the money to Bai Lei. Together with the three begged by the strange old man, a total of 2.8 million was transferred.
Back at the Antique City, Mr. Bai was not there, and Bai Lei had to wait until the afternoon to return to Zhongdu. Chen Ran drove his off-road vehicle back to Tianzhong City first.
While on the road, Chen Ran received another call from the postal courier.
Chen Ran asked about it, but the other party still didn't know. He told the other party that he went to the courier company to sign for the delivery. The courier was from the Tianzhong Postal Express Company.
When he rushed to the postal express company in Tianzhong City, Chen Ran thought it would be a waste of time, but he didn't expect to actually sign for something. After signing for it, he couldn't wait to open it. It was a small box.
After opening the small box, Chen Ran was surprised. The thing that someone mailed to him turned out to be two Flower God Cups. These two Flower God Cups were a pair, both were Magnolia Cups.
After confirming that the two Flower God Cups were genuine, Chen Ran was about to ask who mailed these two Flower God Cups when his cell phone suddenly rang.
The call was from the little girl who called herself Xiaoyu.
Needless to say, she was the one who mailed these two Flower God Cups. Last time she said she wanted a pair of coffee cups at home to be gifted to Chen Ran. Chen Ran didn't take it to heart at all.
, naturally I didn’t tell the other party the address. I didn’t expect that this little girl actually had it at home and actually mailed it to him.
After the call was connected, Xiaoyu's chirping voice came. She proudly asked Chen Ran if he had received the Flower God Cup she mailed. This was obviously a question knowingly. The courier company could directly check. Chen Ran asked
While signing for it, she would receive the notification. She obviously received the notification when she called at this time.
Chen Ran couldn't laugh or cry, and asked her how she knew his address. Xiaoyu's answer was still that he found it through a human flesh search. After all, the other party was still young, so naturally Chen Ran couldn't take her words seriously, so he asked her for her parents' phone number.
Or get her parents to answer the phone.
Xiaoyu was a little angry and said she wouldn't give it. Chen Ran asked, and she said directly, why are you so annoying...
In desperation, Chen Ran had no choice but to ask her for her bank account number. He directly called her the money. Xiaoyu didn't say anything. Chen Ran learned a lesson and didn't ask her for her bank account number. Instead, he asked her what gift she wanted.
He bought it for her, and Xiaoyu finally heard back. After thinking for a long time, she asked Chen Ran to help her find a gift, which she wanted to give to her grandfather.
Chen Ran said yes.
After hanging up Xiaoyu's phone, Chen Ran thought about how to choose a gift for Xiaoyu to give to her grandfather. After much deliberation, she decided to carve a jade article by herself.
Xiaoyu just gave him the two Flower God Cups, which was undoubtedly a bit of a joke. Chen Ran didn't know what Xiaoyu's parents would think when they heard about it, so when choosing a gift for Xiaoyu, he tried his best not to let the other party suffer.
, even if her parents knew about it then, it would be hard to say anything.
Chen Ran did not go back to the villa first, but rushed to Nandu. Nandu is known as the Millennium Jade Capital. Dushan Jade, one of the four major jade stones, is produced in Nandu. However, he went to Nandu to choose a piece of good material.
Nandu and Tianzhong City are adjacent cities, and it took more than an hour to reach Nandu.
As soon as he arrived at the jade market in Nandu, Chen Ran received a call from Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma called him and asked him to call Professor Yue.
Chen Ran was a little strange and asked Mr. Ma, but Mr. Ma smiled and said that he would know if he called him. Chen Ran had not contacted Professor Yue since he came out of Guixiong Ridge.
The phone number was given to him by Mr. Ma, and he dialed the number and contacted Professor Yue.
After answering the phone, Chen Ran knew what was going on. It turned out that Mr. Ma had asked Chen Ran about the Flower God Cup, and also asked Professor Yue. Professor Yue heard that Chen Ran was looking for it, so he was very dedicated.
He also helped to inquire, and found out that a student he once taught had three flower cups in his hand, and an old colleague of his also had two in his hand.
The two men had too few cups in their collections, so they naturally did not expect to collect a set. In addition, Professor Yue had a kind heart, so Professor Yue tried it out and was willing to transfer it.
Professor Yue called Chen Ran and asked Chen Ran what kind of cups he needed. He also said that it would be best if they could collect them together. After all, they only had two cups. If they only took one away, the remaining one would be sold.
It’s time to get some discounts.
This was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise. Needless to say, Chen Ran must have accepted it all.
Professor Yue's student and old colleague were both from Beijing. After hanging up Professor Yue's call, Chen Ran immediately contacted Bai Lei and asked him if he had departed from Tianjin. It turned out that he hadn't yet and was waiting for the afternoon flight.
After hearing what he said, Chen Ran refused to let him rush back to Zhongdu and went to the capital for another trip.
Although Bai Lei complained a lot, when he heard that he had received the Flower God Cup again, he immediately ran to the capital.
After explaining to Bai Lei, Chen Ran called Professor Yue again. He first told Professor Yue about the incident, and then had a good talk with Professor Yue about old times.
After Professor Yue told Chen Ran that he had time to go to the capital to see him, he hung up the phone.
Chen Ran first transferred 2.2 million to Bai Lei to purchase Professor Yue's five Flower God Cups, and then spent more than 500,000 to select a piece of high-end material in Nandu.
Rushing back to the villa in Tianzhong City, Chen Ran did not contact the school belle or tell his family for the time being. He spent half a day carving out a picture of pine and crane longevity. After packaging, he asked Xiaoyu for his address and mailed it to Xiaoyu.
.
After finishing the work, I took six osmanthus cups, one lotus cup from the villa, seven from Liushu Village, two from Uncle Lin, seven from Madman Yang, one from Nanjing, three from Hangzhou, thirteen from Fuzhou, and two from Xiaoyu.
A total of forty-two rushed towards Zhongdu.
At the same time, Bai Lei also took two Han Hai, three Antique Shop, two Old Man Ma, four Strange Old Man, and five Professor Yue, a total of sixteen people from the capital and rushed back to Zhongdu.
One in the south and one in the north, the two will meet in the center.
