Chapter 348: Water Chancellor
Chen Jing slept until the next day.
When I woke up, it was not yet completely bright, and the bedroom seemed very quiet. My nose was filled with the elegant fragrance of my elder sister and the fragrance of freshly cut flowers placed in the bedroom.
Kong Xue snuggled tightly beside him and slept very sweetly. She should have been a little tired of taking care of him last night.
Chen Jing gently lifted the quilt and looked at it. His clothes had changed into pajamas. I don’t know if he vomited it last night or if his elder sister was afraid that he would not sleep well, so she wiped his body and changed his pajamas.
It was still early, and Chen Jing didn't get up, but he was no longer sleepy, so he simply picked up his cell phone and looked at it.
There are a lot of unread messages, and these are sent by people who were not present to congratulate them yesterday, including Lao Chen, Empress Dowager Lu and Shen Jing.
There is no need to mention the reason why Old Chen and Empress Dowager Lu did not come. Chen Jing was busy preparing for the spring auction that the new century was about to be held, and she really couldn't find any time.
She has been promoted and has indeed taken care of more things.
Chen Jing expressed her apology in the message and once again invited Chen Jing to attend the New Century Spring Auction that will be held in more than a month.
In addition, it was the message sent by Zhong Xiao last night, which briefly reported on the sales situation of yesterday's opening. Her words were filled with unhidden excitement, which shows how good the business was yesterday.
Chen Jing replied to the information one by one, then carefully looked at the sales of the blind box store yesterday. He was as calm as he couldn't help but smiled happily.
The situation is really good, which basically proves that the antique blind box store business can be successful, and the subsequent branches in other cities can be prepared.
Anyway, Chen Jing has a lot of cash in hand now, so he definitely has no shortage of funds for opening a branch.
More than half an hour later, it was getting brighter and Kong Xue's alarm clock rang.
"Um~" Before Chen Jing could turn off the alarm clock, Kong Xue was awakened.
The big sister who had just woken up slightly opened her beautiful big eyes, and her dignified and pretty face was a little confused. She looked at Chen Jing, rubbed her cheeks against his chest, and muttered, "Xiao Chen, I had a dream last night."
The tone of voice is lazy and confused, and the eldest sister has not yet fully awakened.
"What dream?" Chen Jing asked with a smile while gently caressing Kong Xue's long hair.
"I dreamed that I had five children, and then Xiao Jing laughed at me as a pig. If I said it wasn't a pig, how could I have so many children?"
"Ah?" Chen Jing couldn't help but chuckled: "Sister Xue, your dream is really interesting."
"Oh, it's all my fault. Now I don't urge us to get married, but I urge us to have a baby earlier. You don't know. Yesterday, she saw Xixi and Yuan Jing and liked it very much. After returning, eight of the ten sentences all imply that we would have a baby earlier, which made me dream at night." Kong Xue pouted slightly and said helplessly.
The big sister, who was a little angry, looked much cute and playful, but she looked a little bit like when she was sick.
Chen Jing had doting in his eyes: "What do you think, Sister Xue?"
"Um~" Kong Xue hugged Chen Jing a little tighter and replied: "I want to give birth to a child for you, but I must get married and spend my honeymoon after I have children. With my life, the focus will be different."
"Also, we have to spend some time learning how to be good parents. When we bring him to this world, we must always be responsible for him."
Hearing this, Chen Jing's eyes flashed with confusion.
He always felt that the word father is quite far away from him, or so far, the word father only represents Lao Chen in his heart.
Chen Jing never thought that the word father is not so far away from him.
One of the truly mature peach blossoms of a man is actually to do the role of father well.
Nowadays, Chen Jing is still a little immature in this regard, and he cannot fully understand the meaning of the word "father".
So Kong Xue's words make sense. It is simple to have children, but they are very, very important chapters in life, and they are responsibilities that require hard work to learn and shoulder.
"Well, I should learn more." Chen Jing responded seriously.
…………
The couple was greasy and warm in the bed for a while before getting up and washing up.
It was Monday today. Kong Wenli and Zhou Huimei came to Changcheng to take advantage of the weekend and took a leave on Monday, but today we have to rush back to Hunan.
Chen Jing was also thinking about buying authentic antiques for his future mother-in-law, so he took Kong Xue out early to the hotel where the other elders stayed.
The eldest sister took a long time off today to accompany her parents.
Chen Jing naturally went directly to Nabaoju when buying genuine antiques, so he didn't let the fat water flow out of his country, so he took care of Zhao Zheng's business.
Zhou Huimei now knows that Chen Jing is rich, so she is not polite to her future son-in-law. With Zhao Zheng's recommendation, she bought a very beautiful, well-kept, and perfectly-qualified pastel lotus water crown around the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The value is about 300,000 yuan.
Of course, Zhao Zheng was a little cheaper, 300,000 yuan.
As for why not cheaper?
This business is business, and Zhao Zheng and Chen Jing are both people who can distinguish them.
Even if Chen Jing has shares in Nabaoju, he still needs to distinguish these. He can give the money directly or deduct it from the dividend, but he can't buy it at a cheap price.
Speaking of Shuicheng, it is also called Shuizhongcheng or Inkstone Drop. It is a water storage device placed by literati in ancient times on calligraphy tables. Naturally, the water in it is not used to drink, but to grind ink.
The ancients paid a lot of attention to study supplies, and the styles of this inkstone were also very diverse. Most of them were flat and round. Those with mouths were called "Shuizhu", and those without mouths were called "Shuicheng".
Strictly speaking, Shuicheng is also a kind of antique in cultural relics. Its popularity may not be as high as the traditional four treasures of the study "brush, ink, paper and inkstone". However, in the cultural relics circle, Shuicheng has always said that the fifth treasure of the study is.
Because of its small and elegant nature, it can reflect the aesthetic taste of literati and elegant people. Therefore, it has a delicate and vintage age. The well-kept Shuicheng is considered a collection of high-quality taste and its investment value is not low.
In short, Zhou Huimei likes it very much. After buying it, she took the protective box and looked at it again and again. She really couldn't let it go.
"Sister Zhou, the investment value of this pastel lotus water crown is quite high. If you keep it in your hand for a few years and then change it, you can earn at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan. It's okay to earn more than 100,000 yuan if you are lucky. The key is to maintain your value, and you won't cut the price, it will only become more and more valuable."
Zhao Zheng smiled and poured a cup of tea for Kong Wenli and Zhou Huimei, and then spoke.
Zhou Huimei responded: "How can I sell the things my son-in-law gave me? I have to keep them well."
"Haha, that's true."
The family of four stayed in Nabaoju for a while, and Chen Jing also went to the blind box store and found that although there were not as many customers in the store as they opened yesterday, they were still good.
This made Chen Jing feel a little better and he called Zhong Xiao over.
"Sister Zhong, you worked hard yesterday. After get off work, you will take them to a dinner party. You should eat and play. I will be reimbursed. In addition, you will have bonuses this month."
Zhong Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen."
Today seems to be a good day, because while taking his future father-in-law and mother-in-law for lunch, Chen Jing received another call from Professor Chen.
The old man called and told Chen Jing the good news that he had been waiting for.
Beg for the mercy.
