312 Li Lingzhifa
Chen Rui did not hide his itinerary and spoke directly to He Xiaohe.
Sure enough, He Xiaohe on the other end of the phone was completely intrigued by him.
"What's wrong? Did you receive another good thing in this big episode?"
"Hey, I collected a few things, but there is one thing I'm sure is good."
"As for the other two, I'm not sure yet..."
When he said this, He Xiaohe's interest on the other end of the phone was completely aroused.
"Oh? What good things did you collect? Send a photo and let's take a look."
"Okay, wait a moment."
Without saying anything, Chen Rui took photos of the copper-patterned teapot from all angles and sent them to He Xiaohe.
In less than fifteen minutes, He Xiaohe called.
"Holy shit, brother, I really don't know what to say to you."
"Did you collect this thing from that big collection?"
You could tell from the excitement in his words that he obviously recognized this thing.
Chen Rui smiled and nodded: "Yes, I collected it from this collection, and it's still warm."
"However, it was not like this when I first received it..."
"Haha, I know, patinated copperware! It is the most prone to black rust and white hair."
Not to mention, He Xiaohe still has some knowledge about antiques.
He actually knew without looking at what this copper kettle would look like when he received it.
You know, Chen Rui sent him a photo of the copper kettle, but what it looked like after he used lemon juice to scrub the entire copper kettle.
The copper pot at this time was completely different from when he received it.
After the black rust on the whole body has been rubbed off, the white hair has also been wiped off.
The entire copper kettle has taken on a new lease of life.
From the original black and dirty pot, it turned into a shiny new copper pot with mottled light.
This copper kettle has a breathtaking beauty just by looking at its appearance.
After Chen Rui saw the complete picture of this copper pot, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
Our ancestors are the ones who know how to be beautiful, and they can create so many tricks for you with just one pot.
This copper kettle doesn't use any other decorations, it just relies on the various metal impurities contained in the body of the kettle itself.
We can make you a copper kettle with beautiful shape and bright colors.
This cannot but praise the wisdom of our ancestors!
"Tell me, how much did you pay for this copper kettle?"
He Xiaohe on the other end of the phone asked impatiently, and Chen Rui chuckled.
"You can't say that, it's just not cheap anyway."
“Although this is a large collection of antiques, you can’t guarantee that you’ll miss everything every time you go!”
Regarding the price, Chen Rui had no intention of telling the truth to He Xiaohe.
And when he said this, He Xiaohe was also stunned, knowing that he was reckless.
After all, no matter who it is, the delivery price will not be disclosed to you easily.
"Are you going to take action with this pot?"
He Xiaohe immediately asked the topic he was most concerned about.
"Of course."
"Hehe, very good... Oh, by the way, you just said that you also collected two things, you are not sure..."
"What kind of treasure is that?"
He Xiaohe was about to say something, but the conversation changed again.
Chen Rui knew that this copper pot alone might not be enough to participate in He Xiaohe's auction.
So he gritted his teeth and took photos of the two Rembrandt paintings he had collected before and sent them to He Xiaohe.
"Also, two paintings by Rembrandt..."
But this time, after he sent the photo.
He Xiaohe was silent for a long time, and even after an hour, there was no response.
Chen Rui glanced at the time, it was already four in the afternoon, and it would be dark in another hour.
He hadn't eaten all day and was feeling hungry.
Just when I got up to go to dinner, He Xiaohe's phone call came.
"Hey, bro, where did you get this painting?"
He Xiaohe's voice on the other end of the phone was a little low, but Chen Rui could hear the suppressed excitement behind his low voice.
"Didn't I tell you, it's in this antique collection!"
"Fuck, you kid, your luck is really too bad."
"But how can you be sure that these two paintings are genuine works by Rembrandt?"
He Xiaohe asked again, and Chen Rui smiled.
Sure enough, this kid still took the bait.
"Well, I'm not sure about this either. As you know, there are too many fake paintings by Rembrandt on the market now."
"I also saw that the two pictures were really similar, so I spent a lot of money to buy them."
"I was wondering if you have some appraisal experts over there who could help with the appraisal."
Chen Rui deliberately pretended not to understand.
There was a high-five sound coming from the other end of the phone. It should be He Xiaohe's happy slap.
"Hey! That's it! Don't worry, leave it to me."
"Brother, you really asked the right person about this. When it comes to appraisal, I actually know a few experts who are experts in appraising oil paintings."
"In this case, you can come to our place tomorrow, and I will find two expert appraisal experts for you."
"Ask them to help you identify it. I'll help you pay for the identification fee."
"Hey! There's no need for that. I don't need the money."
Chen Rui quickly stopped him, but He Xiaohe on the other end of the phone insisted.
"Brother, do you look down on me? You saved my life in San Jose before, so what does it mean if I do you a little favor?"
"Don't worry, I'll find this expert for you, and you don't have to worry about the cost."
"Well...there's one more thing..."
When He Xiaohe said this, the conversation changed and he became coy again.
But since everyone is so generous, Chen Rui naturally can't stretch his hips.
"What else is there? You might as well just say it!"
"Hey, hey, bro, are you going to take action on this painting?"
"Ah? Well...of course I plan to take action! I'm not a collector."
Chen Rui hesitated for a moment and then replied.
"Hey! That's great, bro, we are currently planning a new auction."
"Are you interested? If so, I think these treasures can be sent up for auction."
"Let me tell you, the specifications of this auction are even higher than the previous one."
"If you can put these things up for auction, they will definitely fetch a high price."
He Xiaohe on the other end of the phone said to Chen Rui seductively.
Chen Rui didn't hesitate at all and returned directly.
"That's good! It saves me the trouble of looking for other auction houses, but brother, we charge..."
When he pretended like this, He Xiaohe, who was opposite him, immediately believed in him even more.
"Brother, I won't say much else. You have saved my life before."
"I'll waive all the costs for you in the early stages of album production, previews, and publicity. It's just the handling fees for the auction. I don't care about that."
