Looking at the look on the old man's face, Liu Dong naturally understood what he was thinking, so he quickly replied: "Mr. Li, I had no choice but to go to the casino last night. I just play there occasionally. If nothing happens in the future, I will definitely do it."
not going!"
Hearing this, the old man nodded. He did not continue to ask Liu Dong why he went back to the casino. "Xiaodong, through these few days of contact, you are very talented in antique appraisal, jade, bamboo and wood carving. As long as
Study hard, study hard, and you will succeed one day. Moreover, it is safer to make money through this, and it is not too difficult for you. It is much safer than gambling!"
"I understand, Mr. Li! Don't worry!" Liu Dong quickly and respectfully replied to this old man who was sincerely doing his best.
Seeing his agreement, the old man nodded with satisfaction. Older people are naturally more satisfied with an obedient and sensible reserve, "But with your 30 million, it is enough if you want to buy a house here!"
"What? Brother Liu also wants to buy a villa here?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Defa asked with a smile.
After hearing this, Liu Dong nodded. He didn't need to hide it. Instead, he was very grateful that Mr. Li could say it for him. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to talk to Zhao Defa. After all, they hadn't known each other for too long.
, although they have a good relationship, it is inevitable that they are still a little unfamiliar with each other.
"Well! It has been three years since I came out of my hometown. Although I am not rich now, I still have a small fortune, so I want to buy a villa here and bring my parents over from my hometown to enjoy the happiness. It can be considered as
As a child, I will fulfill my filial duty."
Hearing this, Mr. Li nodded with satisfaction. It was obvious that the old man was very satisfied with what he said.
After listening to his words, Zhao Defa pondered for a moment and said: "Although the housing prices here are expensive, considering Brother Liu's current net worth, buying a villa here is not a problem. But I'm afraid it's not too easy now.
!”
"What? Boss Zhao, are there any difficulties here?" Liu Dong asked.
"Well!" After nodding, Zhao Defa said, "Actually, even if I don't tell you, you should have guessed that the environment here is good, quiet, and a good place for self-cultivation, so there are many people who like it here, so since 1995
After the completion of this place, all the villas were sold without leaving the family. Although there were changes in the middle, they were just one family and two families. Therefore, if Brother Liu wants to buy a house here, he will probably have a lot of money.
It’s hard to buy!”
After listening to what he said, Liu Dong couldn't help showing a look of disappointment on his face. Although he had already realized this situation when he discussed it with Mr. Li on the way here, when he really heard it from Zhao Defa
When I heard this news, I couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed.
"Let's do this, Brother Liu! I'll help you inquire in the past few days to see if there are any houses for sale here. If so, I will notify you in time! Do you think this is okay?" After hesitating, Zhao Defa
Finally said.
"Thank you so much!" Liu Dong was overjoyed when he heard this and couldn't help but thank him.
"Haha, Brother Liu, this is just a simple task. Saying thank you to me is a bit out of line. And it should be me who wants to say thank you today, if you hadn't helped me identify the pair of Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cups today.
, I will suffer a big loss! Moreover, if I am really cheated by the Japanese, then my face will be greatly embarrassed. So when I want to say thank you, it should be me who thanks you!" Zhao Defa
He said with a warm expression.
"Boss Zhao is so polite!..."
"Hey!" He waved his hand to interrupt Liu Dong, and Zhao Defa continued, "Brother Liu is too foreign. It's better not to call him Boss Zhao from now on!" After a pause, "I think I'm about the same age as your father.
Da, so I will call you Xiaodong like Mr. Li! From now on, you can just call me Uncle Zhao! What do you think?"
Faced with Zhao Defa's deliberate approach, Liu Dong would not be stupid enough to refuse. After living independently for three years outside, he had a deep understanding of the saying that multiple friends lead to multiple paths. Especially in China, where human relationships are everywhere
In today's society, the thickness and breadth of the network of relationships often determine the achievements that a person can achieve.
Therefore, Liu Dong, who understands this, would happily agree even if there was no look from Mr. Li next to him, "Uncle Zhao, then I will climb high!"
"Haha, Xiaodong, you are too polite! With your current net worth and wealth growth rate, maybe you will surpass Uncle Zhao and I in the past few years, and then I will be the one to climb up the ladder!" Zhao Defa looked confidently in front of him.
The calm young man said with a smile on his face.
Of course, his words were not without purpose. In fact, Liu Dong made money too fast. Yesterday, he was able to earn 30 million in one afternoon. Today, he did not spend a penny. Once again, he gambled away the value from the Japanese Ichiro Fujita.
30 million copies of Huang Binhong's "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".
If you include the 3.5 million he earned from selling Kangxi snuff bottles and the 15 million he earned from gambling on stones. This means that in just three days, Liu Dong's net worth increased to
It has reached a height of nearly 80 million. This increase in wealth is really amazing.
Although Liu Dong earned all this money by chance rather than making money in a steady stream like a company, the increase in wealth of 80 million in three days is enough for people to realize the hidden potential of this young man.
Talent. For such people, it is natural to make friends as early as possible. Social elites like Zhao Defa who have worked their way up from the bottom of society naturally understand this courtesy.
Of course, if he knew that Liu Dong also had the octagonal relic pagoda of Wang Shuyuan of the Ming Dynasty; Tang Yin's "Spring Mountain Companion Picture"; Qianlong bell seal, one of the four books Liu Yong annotated "The Analects of Confucius"; Liu Yong's handwritten and stamped bell seal "The University", the third of the four books
"Mencius", "The Doctrine of the Mean", and three valuable gambling stones. I'm afraid you won't be surprised by these priceless treasures.
"Uncle Zhao is too polite!" Liu Dong said.
"Hey, brother Liu, we are also very close. I will call you Xiaodong from now on!" At this time, Li Yuncong, who was standing aside, suddenly said. Of course, he and Zhao Defa had different economic considerations in approaching Liu Dong. More
I still think Liu Dong has a bad temper towards him, and he also likes collecting and appraising antiques.
"Then I'll call you Brother Li, you are older than me!" Liu Dong said with a smile. Although Li Yuncong's words and deeds can tell that his family is extraordinary, he does not have the kind of personality that some children of big families have.
He has a defiant and unruly nature. On the contrary, he has the unique boldness of Shandong people. Although they have not been in contact for a long time, he has a deep affection for him. Therefore, he does not reject having such a friend.
Seeing several people trying to make friends with each other, Mr. Li who stood aside just smiled and said nothing. After their relationship becomes closer, it will be more beneficial to their future development. Especially Li Yuncong and Liu Dong, these two
He is optimistic about the younger generation, and Mr. Li is even more happy to see the relationship between them.
After exchanging a few words of greetings, when Liu Dong glanced at the paintings spread out on the table again, he suddenly remembered his plan just now. After organizing his words, Liu Dong pointed with curiosity on his face,
The end of the painting, which had been opened by Li Yuncong, said: "Mr. Li, do you think the seal here is too long? Is there anything special about this?"
After hearing his words, Mr. Li was stunned and couldn't help but look in the direction pointed by Liu Dong's right index finger. Then he frowned. Compared with the yellow paper seal at the top of the painting, the seal at the end of the painting was longer.
Nearly thirty centimeters, "It's really a bit big, and logically speaking it shouldn't be!" You know, the painting and calligraphy are very particular, and front-to-back symmetry is the most basic principle. Of course, this also takes into account the element of beauty.
.But obviously there is something different about this painting!
Of course, when painting and calligraphy are left blank, especially when the vertical axis is used, the sky is big and the earth is small, that is, there is relatively more blank space in the upper part, but this refers to the center of the painting, not the outer mounting. In addition, this painting
The imitation of Huang Binhong's "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" has a horizontal axis instead of a vertical axis, so the left and right symmetry is correct.
