Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps

Chapter 468: Gathering of Treasures

"Okay, we make a bet with you, don't waste time now, go to Baorong Zhai first." Mr. Geng was like coaxing a child.

"Okay, let's go first, you just don't believe me." Dr. Hou was a little unconvinced, but he also knew that he couldn't delay the business, so he got into the car in anger.

Having a car is convenient, and you can get there in no time.

Most of the well-known antique shops are in the Liulichang area, but Baorongzhai is in the east of the city. The house is antique, with red walls and green tiles.

There are more businesses now, and there are many small shops selling pens, inks, paper and inkstones near Baorongzhai. They look very expensive.

The weather is getting warmer, and the cotton curtain at the entrance of Baorong Zhai has been pulled up. The door is open, and you can vaguely see that it is full of people.

Dr. Hou started shouting as soon as he got out of the car, "The vice president is here, big guy, go out and pick him up."

Yuanni never expected that Dr. Hou would do this, and it was too late to stop him.

I saw a group of people walking out of Rongbaozhai. The leader was a middle-aged man. His face was full of smiles, which made people feel like spring breeze. "I, Qi Xiangyang, the vice president is really young and promising."

Yuan Ni is really young, and as for being promising...she smiled and said, "You're flattered."

Qi Xiangyang is the shopkeeper of Baorong Zhai. The history of Baorong Zhai has been full of ups and downs, so I won’t discuss it here. Anyway, he still has the final say in Baorong Zhai now.

After receiving Yuan Nier, Qi Xiangyang called everyone into the house, "It's not time for gambling yet, and the foreigners haven't come yet. Let's go inside first, have a cup of noodles and tea, and discuss countermeasures."

In fact, the antiques circle is not a monolith. People come here to pursue profits, and the antiques circle is no exception. Everyone is in this business to make money.

Operating in the same business, there is a competitive relationship between them, and they usually dig holes and corners among each other. The reason why they live in harmony now is that they are prepared to deal with the outside world.

In other words, if the people who came to cause trouble were not foreigners, the people present might have started arguing long ago.

There was a stove in the room, and a circle of chairs were arranged around the stove. Qi Xiangyang asked Yuan Nier to sit on the chair, but she refused.

Even if he holds the title of vice president, judging from his seniority and age, he cannot sit in the upper seat.

Finally, we talked about the ranking of teeth. As soon as the seats were arranged, Qi Xiangyang called for tea, "Thank you for the face. It's too early. Everyone hasn't eaten yet, right? Let's have some tea and snacks first."

Qi Xiangyang ordered the noodles and tea from an outside restaurant, and the snacks were baked in his own kitchen, and they tasted quite good.

Some of the anxious ones didn't even eat breakfast, so they started discussing while eating.

"Vice President, what is the competition going to be like today? Is there a charter?"

"Who is coming to challenge?" Yuan Ni didn't hide it, and directly asked about the specific situation.

"Let me tell you, there are three foreigners who came to my place to cause trouble, two with yellow hair, and one with a notebook..."

According to Qi Xiangyang, he was running the store well, and when he went to have a sip of tea in the back, the waiter hurriedly came to him, saying that someone was causing trouble in the front.

"These three foreigners wanted to see the treasures of the store as soon as they came in. The waiter couldn't figure out their way, so he took out a Yuan blue and white jar.

Unexpectedly, they opened their mouths and said that the jar was fake. To be honest with you, my jar was really not fake. I dared to put it in front of the store. How could it be fake? "At this point, Qi Xiangyang shook his head and sighed.

In the antique circle, half-truths and half-falsehoods are the norm, but today they all followed Qi Xiangyang's wishes and nodded, "This is here to cause trouble."

"Yuan blue and white flowers are rare in the world and are considered treasures to foreign devils. Lao Qi, please continue."

He didn't say anything short in front of the dwarf. According to Qi Xiangyang, his blue and white jar was genuine, but was called a fake. Naturally, he was very angry, so he angrily went to argue with the foreigner.

"Xiao Benzi spoke Longguo dialect and scolded me when he opened his mouth, saying that I opened an antique store to sell fakes and was dishonest, and even smashed our blue and white jars on the spot.

I told him whether the blue and white jar was real or fake, he couldn't just rely on his words, he had to tell the truth why it was fake, otherwise it was the real thing. "

Having said this, Qi Xiangyang wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I didn't expect that he would actually tell me."

It turns out that Qi Xiangyang's blue and white porcelain jar is very similar to the Yuan blue and white porcelain jar that Yuan Ni has identified. It is obviously produced by the official kiln of the Yuan Dynasty, but the style is not correct.

The little book grasped this point and said that Qi Xiangyang's porcelain jar was fake and should be smashed.

Qi Xiangyang knew what he was doing, so naturally he wouldn't let him do it, and the two sides started to argue.

As a result, the quarrel became more and more angry, so they decided to arrange a gambling game. Each party would give three treasures, and they would gamble on the spot, and the loser would keep the treasure.

"I have a few collections of my own, but I'm afraid they'll come prepared and have already figured out my collection, so I don't dare to gamble with them." Qi Xiangyang felt a little embarrassed.

"You don't need to explain, we all understand. I got a Hongshan Jade Pig Dragon not long ago. Take a look. If it can be used, I will help you take the lead." Dr. Hou is an enthusiastic person and takes it without saying a word. Out of my own collection.

The Hongshan Jade Pig Dragon is a sacrificial vessel with a pig head and a dragon body, and the head and tail are connected to form a disc shape.

The Hongshan Culture was five or six thousand years old. Because it was too old and the carving tools could not keep up, the things produced at that time were relatively rough.

The Hongshan Jade Pig Dragon presented by Dr. Hou is rare and delicate.

As soon as Qi Xiangyang received it, he nodded and praised, "Old Doctor Hou, you finally received something valuable."

After Qi Xiangyang finished reading, he put the jade pig dragon back on the table, and the next person continued to read.

Yuanni also took a look at it, and her hands were burning, proving that the jade pig dragon was real.

"Let's put this thing on the table first, and then see what others have. If we want to gamble, we have to bring out rare treasures."

The more rare the treasure is, the harder it is for the other party to identify it, so that you can keep your own things.

Qi Xiangyang also had the same idea, so it was Dr. Hou's turn to take action.

The man smiled sheepishly and pulled out the box at his feet, "This item of mine is relatively heavy, so I won't put it on the table."

As he spoke, he spread a mat on the ground, and then placed the object on it, and it turned out to be a little lion.

Someone laughed and said, "Isn't this the stone lion placed at the gate? What's so rare about it?"

Yuan Ni touched it, then shook her head and said, "This is not a lion, this is Pixiu."

No matter how careless the ancients were, they would not place a pair of braves at the gate. Wouldn't that be mocking themselves?

So this object is actually...
