Ning Xiaofan was looking around when a group of people came not far away, especially the old man in the middle, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Brother Ning!"
Ning Xiaofan turned around and saw that it was none other than Yun Xiu, the official treasure appraiser.
"Little brother, you didn't even tell me when you came. It will take you a while before I return." Yun Xiu chuckled.
"Just arrived." Ning Xiaofan said calmly.
"Okay, let's go. I'll take you to the reception room to rest for a while and have a cup of tea." Yun Xiu pulled Ning Xiaofan and left, as if he was reminiscing with an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.
Those who came to visit the exhibition were all enthusiasts in the antique industry. Naturally, they knew Yun Xiu, a master treasure appraiser, and Mr. Yun, who had appeared on CCTV's "Treasure Appraisal Pond" program not long ago. They just didn't know about this little guy.
Who could actually make Mr. Yun like him so much?
Many people turned their attention to it.
When Ning Xiaofan came to the reception room, he found that the decoration here was antique. He thought he had arrived in ancient times, but this was in line with their style of playing antiques.
Behind Mr. Yun, several bodyguards stood aside and served tea to Ning Xiaofan.
"Brother Ning, I haven't asked you yet, where did you study? Such great appraisal ability must be guided by an expert behind it, right?" Yun Xiu asked seemingly casually, but in fact he really wanted to know about Ning.
What is Xiaofan's background?
You must know that you are already a talented person in this antique world. It will take decades of effort to reach the current level of treasure appraisal. This little guy only looks like he is in his early twenties.
He was crushed. There must be an expert behind this, otherwise how could he be stronger than himself?
"I don't have a master." Ning Xiaofan drank a cup of tea that Yun Xiu had just poured, and couldn't help but feel the unusual mellow taste.
Ning Xiaofan did not have the habit of drinking tea, but Chen Hao, the second eldest brother, had taken some good teas such as Tieguanyin and West Lake Longjing from home several times. He had also tasted some, but after drinking the tea in front of him, Ning Xiaofan
But Fan felt that there was a big difference. This tea was much more fragrant and had more aftertaste than the ones Chen Hao had.
"Hahaha...Brother Ning is really good at joking. You can't be self-taught with such great treasure-appraising skills, right? Haha, okay, since Brother Ning doesn't want to say it, then just don't say it. After all, this is personal privacy, Ning
Just drink tea, brothers."
Yun Xiu was slightly disappointed that he didn't ask about Ning Xiaofan's background, but after thinking about it, he wasn't in a hurry. As long as he became friends with Ning Xiaofan, he would surely find out gradually in the future.
"What kind of tea is this? It tastes very good." Ning Xiaofan said lightly.
"What about this?"
Yun Xiu didn't expect that Ning Xiaofan would suddenly ask about tea. He was stunned for a moment, then dug around under the coffee table and found a tea bag.
A very simple, hand-woven knitted bag.
"Bei Yicha, what kind of tea is this? If you don't ask, I still don't know." Yun Xiu also became surprised at this time.
"Brother Ning, I'm sorry. I haven't been to this art museum very often before. This tea is probably prepared by the art museum. I've never drunk Beiyi tea like this. If you feel good, just take it when you leave.
Yeah. I just didn’t expect that Brother Ning is also a tea drinker, haha." Yun Xiu said with a smile on his face.
Ning Xiaofan didn't give in. "Then now I'll thank Mr. Yun."
Yun Xiu waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
At this time, a subordinate suddenly came outside.
"Master Yun, Lin Qiao from Linzhou has come to see you."
"San'er? Where is he?"
Mr. Yun's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly became very happy.
"Mr. Yun, San'er is here." At this moment, a voice with an accent from the Beijing area appeared at the door.
"Hey, San'er, long time no see. I didn't expect you to be here today." Mr. Yun stood up immediately and was particularly happy to see Lin Qiao.
The same goes for Lin Qiao.
The two hugged each other and sighed.
"Come on, let me introduce you to San'er. This is a capable person I just met who has a very unique vision. Brother Ning, Ning Xiaofan. Brother Ning, this is a good friend I met in the capital before. He is Pan Jiayuan.
As long as you are in the antique business in Beijing,
Most people who hang out in the city know him. He later moved to Linzhou, but judging by his voice, he still has a strong Beijing accent. His name is Lin Qiao, and I call him Saner. He is much older than you, so you can call him Saner.
Brother." Mr. Yun's face glowed red and he was very happy.
"Mr. Yun, you have embarrassed me. In front of you, I am just a junior, far from being a great leader. However, for Mr. Yun to be called a capable person, it seems that Brother Ning must have extraordinary abilities.
What a place." Lin Qiao laughed.
"I'm not bragging to you, San'er. My ability to appraise antiques should be pretty good, but it's not as good as this little brother's. This little brother's vision is so vicious that you can't even imagine it." Mr. Yun said with a smile.
"So awesome." Lin Qiao couldn't help but glance at Ning Xiaofan.
This is when Ning Xiaofan shook his head: "Mr. Yun is joking. In the antique shop, I am just a newbie. In the Internet language, I am a newbie. I just picked up a few mistakes before, and I was lucky."
"Be humble, Brother Ning. Okay, stop standing and come sit down and drink tea. Just now, Brother Ning said that this Beiyi tea is good. You should try it too, San'er." Mr. Yun said and gave Lin a cup of tea.
Joe poured tea.
"Hey." Lin Qiao quickly picked it up with both hands.
At the same time, he said to the subordinate next to him: "Bring up the gift you brought for the old man."
"Yes." The subordinate agreed, and soon brought up a small, exquisite and simple box.
This box is well made and is about ten centimeters long and wide. At first glance, you can tell that the collection inside should be extraordinary.
"San'er, come as soon as you come. Why don't you bring any gifts? Isn't this a surprise?" Mr. Yun pretended not to want it, but he was still looking forward to it in his heart.
For anyone who is involved in the antique industry, there will be a sense of excitement when facing unknown and fresh antiques.
Moreover, in the antique shop, giving as a gift is never about money, nor is it about buying ginseng and deer antlers, but all kinds of antiques. First, they have connotations, second, they can be collected, and third, they are in line with the preferences of the antique person.
After Lin Qiao took the box, he held it in his hand and slowly opened it to Mr. Yun with a smile.
"Mr. Yun, I know that you like jade pendants a lot among antiques, so I bought you a white jade butterfly from the mid-Ming Dynasty in Linzhou." (To be continued)
