"Brother Zhang, this is Yan Yi. I have something to ask you for help!" As soon as Wang Yan left the hospital, he drove to Rongcheng! He thought for a long time on the way and finally decided to ask Zhang You for help.
"Brother, what a coincidence, I was just looking for you. Just now Mr. Liu told me that your piece of jadeite has been prepared. Let's go get it together when we are free!" Zhang You's hearty laughter came, and Wang
Yan Yi was startled for a moment, what a coincidence.
"Brother Zhang, where are you now? I'm on my way to Rongcheng!" Wang Yanyi pondered for a while and said.
"Okay then, I'll be at Huahaiyuan. Give me a call when you get there!" Zhang You said with a smile.
"Then let's meet and talk! I happen to have something to trouble Brother Zhang!" Wang Yanyi said.
While driving on the highway, Wang Yan was thinking: Although Zhang You is not an antique maker, jade and jade are inseparable from antiques. And if Zhang You can take Wang Yan to the black market, it means that he is in the antique business.
You should know a relatively powerful collector, and you should be able to get twice the result with half the effort by finding him!
Two hours later! Wang Yan followed the navigation and found the Huahai Garden that Zhang You mentioned.
"Brother Zhang, I'm here!" Wang Yan said with a smile.
"Are you here? Just wait, I'll be out soon!" Zhang You hung up the phone hurriedly. After a few minutes, Wang Yanyi saw Zhang You's figure appearing at the door of Huahaiyuan.
Looking around, he was obviously looking for Wang Yanyi.
"Dudu!" Wang Yan pressed the horn, and Zhang You found him.
"You kid, why do you look so bad? What happened?" Zhang You saw Wang Yanyi's face looking a little haggard and couldn't help asking with concern.
"It's nothing, maybe it's because I haven't had any rest recently!" Wang Yanyi didn't tell Zhang You what happened to him. After all, although the two of them claimed to be brothers, in fact their relationship was not that good. Wang Yanyi naturally wouldn't do anything.
I told him, but I still accepted his love in my heart. After all, the other person was caring about me.
"By the way, you just said that you want me to help you with something. What is it? As long as my brother can do it, I will definitely help!" Zhang You said seriously.
"That's right, Brother Zhang, do you know any of the famous collectors in the collecting world?" Wang Yan kept saying.
"What? I'm interested in antiques? That's a coincidence. Do you remember the last time we went to the black market? You, brother, and I just went to find some old stuff to make a gift for an elder. It just so happens that tomorrow night is the time.
It’s the birthday of an elder, who is definitely an authoritative presence in the domestic collecting community. It just so happens that Mr. Liu is going there too. When the time comes, I will take you there with him." Zhang You explained with a smile.
"Thank you so much, brother!" Wang Yanyi said sincerely.
"But, brother, do you still remember Xu Wendou and his son?" Zhang You said with a sudden smile.
"Huh? Of course I remember it. How could I not remember that weird thing? What's wrong?" Wang Yanyi asked in surprise.
"Hey, brother, didn't you say that the pure bottle he took the photo last time was a fake? Experts in the antique industry in Rongcheng will be attending Mr. Mu's birthday party. There will naturally be many treasures, and it is actually a small one.
The exchange meeting, if I read it correctly, you will see it tomorrow night. I believe that the old guy will definitely bring that thing over to Mr. Mu for tasting, or simply give it as a gift to Mr. Mu."
Zhang You said in a thief-like manner.
Wang Yan was stunned and touched his nose. If Zhang You hadn't told him, he would have really forgotten it, but that thing was definitely a fake. Although Wang Yan didn't know much about antiques and didn't dare to say anything else, Xu Wendou took the photo that day.
That one is definitely not true.
"Come on, brother, since you want to go, you can't go empty-handed, right? Come on, brother, I will take you to the antique street to see if you can find any good stuff!" Zhang You pondered for a moment.
road.
"I listen to my brother!" Wang Yanyi naturally has no objection, and his current goal is antiques. Although he doesn't have a clue yet, there are many coincidences, so maybe he will find them by himself?
Zhang You didn't drive anymore but got into Wang Yanyi's car. As soon as he got in the car, his eyes lit up and he said, "Brother, this car is pretty good, especially the one that has been modified inside. It's comfortable!"
"Brother Zhang is joking!" Wang Yan said with a smile.
Soon, under the guidance of Zhang You, we arrived at the Antique Street. Although Wang Yanyi came here last time, it was already evening that time, so he didn't go in. After parking the car, Wang Yanyi and Zhang You walked down.
car.
In fact, it was said to be an antique street. The two of them came to an antique building. On the front door of the antique building were written a few big words, Rongcheng Antique Street.
Entering the main entrance, there were people shouting and coming and going from time to time on both sides of the street. It was very lively. Zhang You seemed very excited when he entered the antique street. Looking at the various objects lined up on the ground, Wang Yan couldn't help but become interested, but he
But he asked with some surprise: "Brother Zhang, are these antiques?"
Obviously, Wang Yan, who was here for the first time, was still a novice in this area. Zhang You smiled and said: "Antiques? Haha, it seems that I really don't understand anything. If these are all antiques, then this is a museum.
, instead of antique street!”
Looking at Wang Yan's confused look, Zhang You explained patiently: "Haha, most of these are modern handicrafts. Of course, there are also a few real antiques, but this requires a test of eyesight.
"
"What? Are you saying these are all fakes?" Wang Yan was stunned for a moment and said.
"Haha, you can't say that. Treasures are hidden in troubled times, and collections are collected in prosperous times. In the early days, this was indeed a veritable antique street. Now, perhaps it is more appropriate to call it a handicraft trading market. The greatest pleasure for people visiting the antique street is from these
Looking for real antiques among handicrafts is called missing pieces in the industry." Zhang You said with a smile.
Wang Yan scratched his head. He couldn't understand it at all. In his opinion, these things were all the same. Anyway, everything looked like an antique, unless there was something fake that couldn't be fake anymore, such as some real handicrafts.
It's something with modern features, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
The two chatted while walking. Zhang You patiently acted as a teacher and introduced some basic knowledge of antiques to Wang Yanyi. Wang Yan felt dizzy after hearing this. It turned out that this thing was not something he could play.
After walking for about ten minutes, Wang Yan heard so much that he couldn't help but feel eager to try it, especially what Zhang You said. Although most of the products here are handicrafts, that is, high imitations, there are also a small number of old products.
, there is quite a feeling of getting a little red out of everything. It is definitely a huge pleasure to think that others can't tell it is real, but you have found it.
Soon Wang Yanyi stopped in front of a porcelain stall. Zhang You smiled. He naturally knew that people who came here for the first time had the kind of mentality of picking up leaks. Anyway, it was still early, so he stood beside Wang Yan with interest.
After Yan Yi died, he wanted to see if Wang Yanyi, a man with incredible luck, would have good luck today.
Wang Yanyi picked up a piece of porcelain and looked at it, but he couldn't tell whether it was a genuine or a fake. But when he turned around and looked at it, Wang Yanyi was dumbfounded. Damn, this is
Isn’t it too fake?
But before Wang Yan could put it down, the stall owner introduced with a smile: "This boss is really discerning. Let me tell you, this is a boutique official kiln from the Northern Song Dynasty, an absolute masterpiece!"
"Ahem, brother..." Zhang You, who was standing behind Wang Yanyi, couldn't hold back his cough and was about to speak. Wang Yanyi smiled and turned over the bowl and said with a smile: "Haha, the Northern Song Dynasty is so awesome.
Oh, you can actually predict the future!" Then he stood up with a smile and looked at each other and smiled at Zhang You.
The stall owner was startled when he heard this. Then he picked up the porcelain and turned it over to look at it. He was dumbfounded. He finally knew what Wang Yanyi just said. Damn it, if this thing is really from the Northern Song Dynasty, then the Northern Song Dynasty
How awesome, did you know that there would be a Southern Song Dynasty at that time? The emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty were so awesome that they could predict beforehand that their descendants would establish the Southern Song Dynasty.
The deposit at the bottom of the bowl is so impressive, it actually says, Xianping Year of the Northern Song Dynasty!
After such an incident, both Wang Yanyi and Zhang You were in a good mood. They were so happy. This fraud was also too deceptive.
"Let's go over there and take a look. It's almost impossible to find something missing here. Although the prices in the old stores over there are a bit higher, they do have more good stuff." Zhang You said with a smile.
The two came to an antique shop called Gu Yuanxuan. Zhang You said with a smile: "If a novice wants to buy it, it is best to go to an old store like this. Although the price is more expensive, the real thing is generally better."
Many."
"Brother Zhang, why are you free to come to my place today?" A middle-aged man who looked like a boss saw Zhang You and Wang Yan coming in and greeted him with a smile.
"What? You're not welcome?" Zhang You said with a smile. It was obvious that the two of them were very familiar with each other.
"Welcome, welcome, how could you not be welcome!" the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Okay, today's protagonist is not me. I'm bringing my brother here to buy a gift. Don't try to fool us with some crap just because he's a newcomer!" Zhang You said, looking at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man showed a wry smile and said: "How can it be possible? Who is this brother?"
"Wang Yanyi!" Wang Yanyi stretched out his hand to shake hands with the middle-aged man.
"Yan Yi, this is Xu Qin, hey, don't look at him with a smile on his face, but he is a famous profiteer, so be careful and don't let him get killed!" Zhang You joked.
"What do you want to see, brother? Porcelain, jade, or calligraphy and painting?" Xu Qin, the owner of this store, said with a smile.
"Well, to be honest, I don't know anything about the antique business, so why don't I come here to learn from Brother Zhang!" Wang Yan said truthfully.
"My brother is good. In the past, many people pretended to understand, as if they were embarrassed if they didn't understand. But my brother is open-minded and doesn't care at all." Xu Qin said with a smile.
"Yan Yi, why don't you take a look for yourself first?" Zhang You pondered for a moment and said.
"I'll take a look at that first! Let me give you my opinion later!" Wang Yan nodded.
Just looking at the dazzling array of antiques, Wang Yan couldn't help but feel dizzy. How could he understand this?
"Old Xu, come on, go ahead and do your business. We'll call you after we've figured it out!" Zhang You said with a smile.
Wang Yan took a quick look and found that the things here were indeed better than those at the street stalls outside. At least Wang Yan couldn't tell whether they were real or fake!
Seeing Zhang Youzheng holding a snuff bottle and looking at it with gusto, Wang Yanyi was bored. To be honest, he really didn't know what to choose. Suddenly he remembered the scene he had seen with his spiritual eye before, and couldn't help but smile.
He activated his spiritual eye technique and scanned the objects on the shelf. However, the spiritual eye technique was not omnipotent. At least for this antique, Wang Yanyi really couldn't see it.
