"Haha, Mr. Tian, I'm not criticizing you, but I think your words are inherently biased. The antique business has been around since ancient times. Everyone works according to their own abilities. They think they have the title of president.
Just by talking about it, you can eat and drink without worries?! If you don’t tell us the truth in advance, you’re afraid that some people will pretend to be awesome if they don’t have the ability, and go around cheating people out of food and drink!” Qin Fen continued to smile, but these words made the three present present.
Everyone's expressions changed. Is this a disguised attempt to scold them?! Qin Fen is indeed very talkative.
"What did you say?! Say it again if you dare!" Tian Hongwen suddenly turned his face.
"Haha, what can I say again?! Do you think that being the president of the guild means you can be arrogant?! Let me tell you, I can only say that you are a frog in the well. If you had real skills, you wouldn't be so angry.
Let me advise you, when you are old, don’t get angry all the time, it is not good for your health, and I see that your face is vaguely gray and hazy, which is not a good sign, so don’t get angry again."
Qin Fen still had a smile on his face and his voice was not loud, but it made Tian Hongwen's face turn pale.
Tian Hongwen was getting angry again, but Xu Hongming next to him stopped him and advised: "Mr. Tian, don't be angry. Maybe you don't understand Qin Fen. He is not only in the antique business, but also cares deeply about Qin Fen."
To the country, Qin Fen handed over several national treasure-level cultural relics without taking any part of them. He is different from ordinary antique dealers!"
"Humph, no matter how much you talk, isn't he just a businessman who is full of copper?! I really don't know why, President, you brought me to see him?!" Tian Hongwen didn't even give Xu Hongming a good look.
These words made Xu Hongming's face look slightly ugly.
Qin Fen finally saw clearly at this time that Xu Hongming, the president, was probably not living a comfortable life either.
"Tian Lao, okay, stop talking. If you really don't like him, don't show off with your words. Aren't we going to Liuli Street? Then we can show our true skills and convince others!"
Tao Boru's voice was also a little cold at this time. He didn't expect Tian Hongwen to be so disrespectful.
Qin Fen finally figured it out. This time, it was probably a trap set by two old guys, Xu Hongming and Tao Boru, to kill two birds with one stone.
On the surface, he invited himself to go to the antique street. In fact, Xu Hongming just wanted to see if he was really capable. Also, Tian Hongwen must be used to being domineering. If he was really capable, he could directly fight him when the time comes.
Facing Tian Hongwen, Tian Hongwen will definitely restrain himself in the future, and Xu Hongming will have the right to speak in the Cultural Heritage Association.
Thinking of this, Qin Fen couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that the water in this cultural association was not shallow.
"Huh, okay, let's have a showdown there!" Tian Hongwen tossed his sleeves angrily and got in the car.
Xu Hongming smiled awkwardly at Qin Fen and explained: "Qin Fen, I made you laugh today. In fact, this old man Tian is not bad, he is just a bit stubborn!"
Hearing Xu Hongming's explanation, Qin Fen forced out a smile and said lightly: "President Xu, I have to say, you are really good at calculating!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Fen got into the car with a smile, while Xu Hongming and Tao Boru looked embarrassed, especially Xu Hongming's old face was a little red.
In the end, he could only shake his head with a wry smile and said to himself: "This Qin Fen is really not a simple person!"
There are many antique streets in the capital, but only a few are famous. This time, their first stop was Liuli Street. This Liuli Street is the most famous antique and cultural street in the capital. Its specific location is between Pingmen in the capital.
Liuli Street emerged in the Qing Dynasty, but after several changes, Liuli Street has been preserved and eventually became the most famous cultural street in the world.
The car drove all the way towards the flat door, but the atmosphere in the car was quite dull. An angry Tian Hongwen sat in the passenger seat with his hands folded in front of him, his face full of indifference.
Qin Fen leaned on the back seat with a relaxed expression and closed his eyes to rest. As for the two old men, Xu Hongming and Tao Boru, they had their own thoughts and didn't know what they were thinking.
However, Xu Hongming was a little embarrassed when Qin Fen saw through his thoughts. Of course, he was not angry in his heart. This made him more interested in Qin Fen. Tao Boru had recommended a talent to himself this time. As long as he was really capable,
Then he will definitely drag Qin Fen to the Cultural Heritage Association and become a member of his own camp.
In the past year, Xu Hongming has not had a good life. It can be said that he is besieged on all sides. Although he is the president, he has many branch presidents under him, all of whom are talents in various fields. Especially Tian Hongwen is not only
The masters of porcelain have now begun to get involved in fields such as calligraphy, painting and bronze ware, which makes Xu Hongming feel vaguely nervous.
The position of the president is already somewhat precarious. Fortunately, he has a loyal subordinate like Tao Boru beside him, otherwise, he might have been forced into the palace long ago.
Of course, there is also the National Cultural Heritage Administration, so his position as president is currently in a stable state, but Xu Hongming is quite clear about the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace. Therefore, if he wants to consolidate and stabilize his position, he must have a few cards in his hand.
Ace, and Qin Fen is his target.
Although Qin Fen closed his eyes, his mind did not rest for a moment. He thought about what had happened just now, and felt that his guess was correct. If Xu Hongming did not deliberately want to blackmail him this time, then
It's because he wants to win over him.
In the blink of an eye, the car had arrived outside Liuli Street. After a few people got off the car, Xu Hongming walked straight inside. This antique street was only more than 800 meters long at first, but now it has developed much more spectacularly than before. The two
There are many shops on the side, and the street stalls are very expensive.
Especially now that it is overcrowded, Qin Fen, Tao Boru and their group moved inside step by step.
To be honest, no matter where this antique street is, it is full of people. There are people who pick up things, people who touch them, and there are countless baggage customers.
Tian Hongwen, who had an angry face before, suddenly changed his expression when he came to the antique street. He was full of curiosity. In fact, he was also a frequent visitor to Liuli Street. Not only him, but also Tao Boru.
and Xu Hongming, who would come here every now and then.
Not to mention other things, they are almost obsessed with antiques and relics. However, if you look at and study the antiques and relics from the Antiquities Association, you can only buy and exchange them for yourself if they can truly become your own private property.
.
Qin Fen's expression was normal. Apart from the fact that he thought this place was bigger than the Antique Street in Dongchang, there was nothing special about it. But now that he was here, Qin Fen certainly didn't want to leave empty-handed, so he kept looking at the stalls.
Scanning.
Although these stalls are temporary, some treasures may actually appear.
"How about Qin Fen?! This trip to Liuli Street is worth it, right?!" At this time, Tao Boru saw Qin Fen's expression and hurriedly came up and said with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Tao, I know what you mean. In fact, I, Qin Fen, am an upright person. If you are wary of me, you can tell me clearly. To put it bluntly, I, Qin Fen, did not come to the capital for this reason.
I came from the Cultural and Biological Association. I have made it clear before that I have no interest in this association or that association. I prefer freedom!"
Qin Fen chuckled lightly and felt that it was time to give the other party a proper beating now. Don't think that because you are so old and have this title, you can play tricks on yourself casually.
When Tao Boru heard this, a hint of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face. Although Qin Fen's voice was not loud, Xu Hongming beside Tao Boru could hear it clearly. His originally gentle expression showed a hint of embarrassment again, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while.
Then Tao Boru and Xu Hongming exchanged words, and Xu Hongming nodded slightly, then slowed down and put some distance between himself and Qin Fen.
As for Tao Boru and Qin Fen, they were walking side by side.
"Qin Fen, I know you are very smart. You have already figured out that we are not just going to visit the antique street when we invite you out today. But you are wrong. We are not testing you. At best, this is just an optional thing. In fact,
We are looking for you mainly because of Tian Hongwen." Tao Boru said to Qin Fen with a serious look on his face.
Qin Fen's steps moved slightly, and he already had an idea in his mind. It seemed that he might be used as a gunman during this trip to Liuli Street. However, he believed Tao Boru's words. After all, the two had known each other for such a long time, and Qin Fen had already known him.
Knowing this person's character, he shouldn't be the kind of villain who has a knife behind his back.
"Mr. Tao, I know you want me to suppress Tian Hongwen's arrogance and strength, but in fact Xu Hongming also wants to test my abilities, is that right?!" Qin Fen turned around and asked calmly.
"Haha..." Tao Boru smiled awkwardly and said: "You are right. In fact, Tian Hongwen has been very arrogant in the Cultural Heritage Association in recent years, but his level of treasure appraisal is indeed good. Except for porcelain, he has begun to
It is involved in other fields, and its status in the Cultural Heritage Association is also very unusual, and I have attracted many people around me."
"Haha, is he going to rise up and take a fancy to Xu Hongming's position?!" Qin Fen said with a chuckle.
Tao Boru's face immediately showed a hint of surprise, and he looked at Qin Fen with surprise, and then nodded and said: "You are too smart. In fact, Tian Hongwen has this idea now. You know that the president of this Cultural Heritage Association is five years old.
Year, there will be re-election in less than a month this year, Xu Hongming is afraid of his position..."
"I know, but I'm afraid I can't be of much help, right?!" Qin Fen interrupted him directly. He was indeed right. The water in this cultural association is so deep.
"No, you are the only one who can help now!"
"What do you mean?!" Qin Fen asked with a frown.
"You had a brief contact with Tian Hongwen just now. This man is very arrogant. He thinks that now in China, his research on porcelain has reached its peak. No one can surpass him. As long as you can let him eat it once
Turtle, then he is completely depressed." Tao Boru glanced around, then whispered to Qin Fen.
