Xia Jing poured a glass of water and handed it to Luo Yu, looking at him with concern.
The tea cup is a porcelain cup with a large handle, and there is a light lipstick mark on the mouth of the cup. At a glance, you can tell that it is the cup Xia Jing drinks from.
My wife is still good to me. Luo Yu felt warm in her heart. She took a sip following the lipstick mark, and the light aroma quickly filled her entire mouth.
"This Mengchen pot is indeed a rare treasure. Mr. Tai specially brought it to me today to open my eyes. I am very grateful." Xia Zhiyuan said in an official tone.
Your son-in-law also brought you the best tea today. Luo Yu snorted and reached out to touch the small bag of tea he had stolen from Miao Xinghai in his pocket.
Tai Shiyou said before that this tea was for Xia Zhiyuan. Now Xia Zhiyuan looked completely unaware. Tai Shiyou couldn't help but become a little anxious: "This is a thin gift. It is what a junior should do when he comes to meet an elder. Please also
Mr. Xia accepted it."
Tai Shiyou's attitude has been made very clear. I brought such an expensive gift today just to give it to you.
Xia Zhiyuan liked this teapot very much. After all, not everyone could get it.
But he also knows the principle of being soft-spoken and short-handed, and today his unfathomable son-in-law is still on the side.
Xia Zhiyuan knew that his son-in-law and the gift-giver Tai Shiyou were business rivals. For the sake of his daughter, he naturally wanted to help Luo Yu rather than Tai Shiyou.
However, looking at Tai Shiyou's attitude, it seemed that he still didn't know that Luo Yu was the big boss behind Xiangpa Company. Xia Zhiyuan's eyes flashed and he glanced at Luo Yu.
Seeing Xia Zhiyuan's eyes full of meaning, Luo Yu glared at him fiercely, but then nodded slightly.
Xia Zhiyuan's meaning is very clear, this person is your opponent, you go and deal with him.
That's all, Luo Yu lamented that he didn't read the almanac when he went out today, and he actually became a bad guy again.
"Shiyou, don't blame me. This was all instigated by the old man and has nothing to do with me." Luo Yu said in her heart, her mind spinning rapidly, thinking about how to stumble Tai Shiyou.
"This teapot..." Xia Zhiyuan hesitated.
Tai Shiyou looked anxiously at Xia Zhiyuan, waiting for his answer. Now that he was speaking, he did not mention whether to accept the gift or not, but seemed to have some complaints about the teapot, so he asked hurriedly: "Mr. Xia, what do you think about it?"
What do you think of this teapot?"
"Well -" Xia Zhiyuan kept looking at Luo Yu intentionally or unintentionally, "Mr. Tai, are you sure this teapot is genuine?"
When these words came out, not only Tai Shiyou was shocked, but Luo Yu was also so frightened that he almost spat out the water he just drank in his mouth.
Old man, you want to kill me! Luo Yu's hands were trembling. Xia Zhiyuan meant to break this real Mengchen pot into a fake one.
Say black as white, true as false, dead as alive. When did my father-in-law know me so well?
Luo Yu's eyes kept turning on Xia Jing and Xia Zhiyuan, father and daughter.
"Mr. Xia, do you think this Mengchen pot is a fake?" Tai Shiyou looked at the assistant beside him and asked Xia Zhiyuan cautiously.
Xia Zhiyuan looked at the teapot carefully again. Everyone else thought that he was carefully identifying the authenticity. Only Luo Yu knew that the old man was completely acting, acting as if it were real.
"Nephew, take a look." Xia Zhiyuan frowned and gently pushed the teapot in front of Luo Yu.
Tai Shiyou was startled when he saw Xia Zhiyuan dumping his burden at Luo Yu's place, and felt bad in his heart. There was a high probability that Luo Yu would make nonsense.
However, Tai Shiyou calmed down quickly. The assistant he brought today was a teapot appraisal master hired at a high price. He believed that even if Luo Yu said it was fake, it would not have much impact.
After all, the authority figures sit next to you.
Luo Yu is now thinking of eating Xia Zhiyuan alive.
I'm here to see my wife today, but I don't want to cause trouble.
"Luo Yu, you have to be careful what you say, and don't say nonsense if you don't understand. The man next to me is a master of identifying authenticity. The TV station has even invited him to do programs."
Luo Yu originally wanted to find an excuse to escape. After all, he and Tai Shiyou didn't have much grievances, so they didn't want to have a serious relationship with him. However, Tai Shiyou's words suddenly made Luo Yu feel unhappy.
Seeing Xia Jing's expectant eyes looking at him, Luo Yu swallowed.
Old man, father's debt is repaid by daughter, and you have made a lot of money.
Luo Yu glanced sideways at the teapot a few times, took another sip of water, and then said slowly: "The tea set is a good tea set, but it's a pity that it's just a cup."
What Luo Yu said was incomprehensible, and he was completely pretentious. He didn't say it well or said anything, but it just made people confused.
Tai Shiyou looked at Luo Yu with a puzzled expression: "What do you mean?"
Since Xia Zhiyuan wanted Luo Yu to help him reject the gift, he simply made it clear: "Xiao Luo, do you think this teapot is not genuine?"
Luo Yu glanced at Xia Zhiyuan with disdain. You old man is more enlightened than I am about whether this teapot is real or fake. Just now, your saliva almost dripped to the ground. Now you want me to say it is fake without conscience. People who play politics have their own thoughts.
I really can't understand it.
Hearing that Luo Yu thought the teapot was fake, Tai Shiyou and his assistant showed disdain on their faces.
No matter how you look at it, Luo Yu is an ordinary college student. Although he did some extraordinary things in front of Tai Shiyou, when it comes to appraising antiques, Luo Yu really doesn't have much status in the hearts of Tai Shiyou and others.
"Oh? Since this gentleman said that this Mengchen pot is fake, please tell me the truth, otherwise Director Xia will misunderstand that we deliberately used fakes to deceive him, which will have a great impact on our reputation. We
You will be held legally responsible." Tai Shiyou's assistant said that he wanted to take legal responsibility, which shocked Luo Yu.
"No, any of you heard me say that this teapot is a fake? You don't want to slander anyone." Luo Yu's face was full of panic. From the looks of it, it seemed that the sentence of legal liability scared him badly.
Seeing Luo Yu's panic, Tai Shiyou couldn't help but feel happy. Don't you dare to criticize a famous magazine editor in front of the media? Being frightened by this didn't reveal your true nature of being strong on the outside and bullying on the weak.
A sneer hung from the corner of Tai Shiyou's lips, and he couldn't be more proud to see Luo Yu deflated.
Seeing Tai Shiyou's proud look, Luo Yu felt unhappy. The old gangster rolled his eyes and smiled: "But there are indeed a few things about this teapot that make me have some questions."
"What's the question?" Tai Shiyou looked at Luo Yu with disdain and snorted.
Luo Yu pretended to take a sip of water, carefully recalling the knowledge he had memorized when he was a child, and then said quietly: "I don't think I have many achievements with Master Hui Mengchen. He is good at preparing various sand mixtures."
It is famous for its clay and the shape of the teapot. Even Queen Anne at the end of the 17th century asked for a pear-shaped teapot imitated by Hui Mengchen when customizing her silver tea set.”
The assistant around Tai Shiyou heard that Luo Yu spoke fluently about historical allusions, and gradually stopped looking down on him.
"As for the Mengchen teapot, this gentleman just said that it is the best quality to have the 'Yonglin' seal script seal inside, but this teapot does not have it." Luo Yu touched the body of the teapot and said, "But it is not a high-quality product.
It doesn’t matter, the fine products are originally national treasure-level cultural relics and cannot be seen on the market.”
