The next day!
Zhou Chen frowned and looked at Yang Huajian in front of him, while Yang Huajian looked at Zhou Chen with an embarrassed look and smiled.
"Zhou Chen, you can't blame me. I discussed business with Su Meng and the others today and had dinner together. They heard that I was coming to see your treasure and they insisted on coming. I couldn't refuse, right?
?”
Yesterday, Zhou Chen agreed to let him see the collection, and he was happy for a day. Today, when he was having dinner with Su Meng and Li Yuan, he couldn't control himself and said it.
The result was naturally obvious. Su Meng, an 'expert' who was determined not to lose to Han Chunming, had to follow him to see the world.
Su Meng didn't say anything, but Li Yuan looked at Zhou Chen with a smile and asked: "Why, Chairman Zhou doesn't welcome us anymore? Or is there a good baby who doesn't want us to grow blind?"
Now that things have come to this, what else can Zhou Chen say.
"No, if not, there are so many old classmates and old friends. Come on, please come in."
Zhou Chen walked into the house with a few people.
"what do you want to drink?"
"Zhou Chen, please stop working so hard. We are not here just for a drink. You should take us to your treasure room quickly."
Because he was very familiar with Zhou Chen and had a good relationship, Yang Huajian didn't worry so much and spoke directly to Zhou Chen.
"Why are you so anxious? Everyone is here. Is it possible that I can make your trip go in vain?"
Zhou Chen was speechless at Yang Huajian's impatience, but he followed Yang Huajian's instructions and led them upstairs instead of pouring water.
Several people followed Zhou Chen upstairs. Su Meng asked: "Zhou Chen, is the second sister not at home today?"
"She went out to take care of the children."
The eldest son, Zhou Xuanyu, is in his third year of high school this year. School ends late in the evening. Since he does not live on campus, Han Chunyan is responsible for picking him up and dropping him off in the morning and evening.
"Zhou Chen, the eldest of your family will be admitted to college soon, right? Among our group, your eldest son should be the eldest, right?"
Speaking of children, Yang Huajian asked casually.
Among this group of educated youths, most of them got married relatively late and had frequent contacts. Except for Lu Hong, who got married early, the eldest son of the Zhou Chen family was the oldest.
"yes."
Zhou Chen led them to the door of his treasure room. After he bought the villa, Zhou Chen hired someone to renovate it and built a large storage room upstairs as his treasure room.
room.
When Zhou Chen opened the door and turned on the lights, Yang Huajian, Su Meng and Li Yuan quickly walked in. When they saw that the 60 to 70 square meters room was filled with antiques, they were all very excited.
Shock.
Because all kinds of antiques are placed together, they look very special. Under the light, they look very beautiful, and the hanging calligraphy and paintings are also unique.
At a glance, there are at least one or two hundred objects in the room. Although it is not as good as Han Chunming's Yaxuan Museum, it is still very extraordinary.
Yang Huajian was even more confused: "Zhou Chen, is this all your collection?"
"Of course not. There are some that are more personal. If they are not here, I won't show them to you."
"Is there anything more precious? Then you are not very interesting. You hide the best ones and don't show them to us."
Zhou Chen explained: "It's not what you think. Although the objects that are not here are also precious, they are not necessarily more precious than the objects here. The main reason is that those objects have some special meaning to me, and some are too big.
It's inconvenient, so I didn't put it here. In fact, there are several objects here that are rare treasures, but ordinary people may not be able to see them."
"You're looking down on people."
Yang Huajian pointed at Zhou Chen: "Although I entered the industry relatively late, I have learned a lot recently, not to mention that Su Meng is here. Su Meng is also an expert in this industry now. You don't look down on me.
Okay, but you can’t look down on Su Meng.”
Su Meng, who was being praised, had a smile on her face, but she still said modestly: "What kind of expert am I? Zhou Chen, don't listen to Yang Huajian's nonsense. Compared with you, how can we be considered experts?"
Zhou Chen said: "Don't be modest. Although experience in this industry is very important, talent is also very important. When looking at things, what matters in the end is your eyesight."
"You guy, if you can talk, just say more. I like to hear you say this kind of thing the most." Yang Huajian laughed.
"Stop flattering me, haven't you been thinking about it for so long? Everything is here, just take a look if you want."
Looking at the dazzling array of antiques, Yang Huajian suddenly asked: "Can we get started?"
Zhou Chen did not refuse: "Yes, but you still have to be careful. Don't get started with calligraphy and painting."
"Don't worry, we are measured."
After receiving permission, Yang Huajian and the other three began to circle around the objects in the room and look at them one by one.
Yang Huajian and Su Meng were very engaged and interested in watching, but Li Yuan was not as interested as they were. She only glanced at it for a few times and then came over to chat with Zhou Chen.
After watching it for a while, Yang Huajian felt dizzy and restless in his heart.
"Zhou Chen, are all the things you have here true?"
But Zhou Chen's answer was beyond his expectation: "No, only half of the things here are genuine, and the rest are fakes. But even if they are fakes, they are not ordinary fakes. They are also of considerable value. Otherwise,
If so, I wouldn’t put them here.”
"Are there any fakes here?"
Su Meng and Yang Huajian were both shocked when they heard this.
Because the two of them have looked at a lot of items so far and haven't found anything fake at all.
Zhou Chen said: "Anything I put here is genuine, and its value is not low. There are a total of two hundred and eight items here. Of course, they cannot all be real, but even if they are fake, they can definitely be confused with the real ones. The truth is
Let me tell you, even Han Chunming and Baolan Hou have been shot by me."
Yang Huajian was even more shocked after hearing this: "Really or not, I still know Han Chunming's level, but he actually looked at you?"
Zhou Chen said: "What's so strange? No matter how powerful a person is, there are times when he gets punched in the eyes. Even Mr. Guan has punched in the eyes a lot in his life."
In the antique business, unless you really have golden eyes, eye piercing will definitely happen.
Han Chunming is just the protagonist, deified in the TV series. As far as Zhou Chen knows, Han Chunming has been blinded many times.
It is not that modern people know how to make fakes. The wisdom of the ancients must not be underestimated. Therefore, some counterfeit products are quite old and difficult to distinguish.
"That's really interesting."
Yang Huajian was more interested, and the same was true for Su Meng. She had just broken up with Han Chunming, and she was only thinking about surpassing Han Chunming. Now that she heard that Han Chunming had also spotted Zhou Chen, she felt a little happy. It seemed that
Han Chunming is not omnipotent.
Yang Huajian's eyes turned to some objects that he was interested in and liked: "Zhou Chen, I like many of your things. For the sake of our friendship for so many years, how many of them will you give me?"
Zhou Chen snorted coldly: "I know you have no good intentions. You think my things are genuine, and wanting my things is your ultimate goal."
Yang Huajian spread his hands: "You can't blame me for this. These things of yours are so good that I can't bear to take my eyes away. Just give me a few. Anyway, you still have so many good things. At worst, we can do business in the future."
If so, I'll give you some profit."
"I'm curious about your profit."
Zhou Chen looked at Yang Huajian and asked: "I told you, half of this place is real and half of it is fake. If you still want to buy it, aren't you afraid of buying a fake one?"
Yang Huajian said: "Don't worry about it. As long as you are willing to take action, even if I buy a fake one, it is because of my poor eyesight and has nothing to do with you. Just tell me whether you are willing to cede it."
Zhou Chen held his chin. There were indeed many things here that were quite precious, but to him, they were not indispensable.
Although he has also fallen in love with old objects over the years, to be honest, compared to Mr. Guan and Han Chunming, who regard old objects as more important than anything else, he is far from that level and does not have that kind of consciousness.
What he wants more is to complete his mission first, and then collect these national treasures so that they will not be scattered abroad.
Of course, he never thought about using these to make money, because he didn't need to make money from the antiques business at all.
"You really want it?"
"Of course, if you don't want it, why should I tell you? You and Han Chunming have become big collectors, so of course I want to give it a try."
Zhou Chen said: "The most valuable item I have here can be sold for over 100 million yuan at auction. Can you afford it?"
"ah?"
Hearing this, Yang Huajian, Su Meng and Li Yuan were all stunned.
Although they all knew that some old objects were of high value, they were still shocked when Zhou Chen said the price was over 100 million.
"Over 100 million, Zhou, Zhou Chen, are you kidding me?" Li Yuan asked in disbelief.
