Xiao Ziyan was still a little depressed about Xiao He's leisurely and contentment.
According to her mother and younger brother, Xiao He was delivering takeaway a year ago, but now he is in a little better condition and has opened a small clinic. She really can't figure out why the barefoot doctor from a small place is so calm when facing herself.
You know, although she is not a top socialite in Zhongzhou, she still thinks she has some charm. When those men see her, they are either rushing to chat with her. In the end, she believes that Xiao He is just bluffing and deliberately pretending to be calm.
.
After a while, the two of them arrived at Zhongzhou Antique Market.
Zhongzhou was once an ancient capital, and the antique industry here is very popular. Many antique lovers at home and abroad often appear here. Even outside the market, you can see many small vendors selling antique calligraphy and paintings on street stalls.
As soon as the two got off the car, Xiao He heard a warm voice, "Zi Yan, you have finally arrived."
Xiao He turned his head and saw a young man with gold-rimmed glasses and meticulously carving his hair.
The man was wearing a handmade Italian suit and his behavior was very generous and decent. However, when he saw Xiao He, the man's eyes suddenly narrowed into two thin slits, revealing his narrow-minded and jealous nature.
"Sorry, Brother Dong, I've let you wait for a long time." Xiao Ziyan changed her poker face when facing Xiao He and squeezed out a sweet smile.
At this moment, she was also secretly comparing Xiao He with the man. Xiao He was still wearing the white T-shirt and black jeans yesterday. Although he looked very sunny, he was simply an ugly duckling compared to the man in front of him.
"Zi Yan, who is this?" the man asked with a smile.
Xiao Ziyan came to her senses and hurriedly said, "Brother Dong, this is my cousin Xiao He."
Then she introduced the man to Xiao He, but it was obviously much more grand than introducing Xiao He. "Xiao He, this is my friend Dong Xiaochao. He is the youngest treasure appraiser in Qianbao Group and also Qian Ban Zhang.
Master Qian’s apprentice, you can ask Brother Dong for more opinions if you buy a gift later.”
Qianbao Group, is it half a piece of money?
Xiao He remembered that he had participated in the Qianbao Group auction in Jincheng and Qian Banzhang whom he met at the auction. He had a good impression of Qian Banzhang, so he nodded slightly to say hello.
When he first heard Xiao Ziyan’s introduction, Dong Xiaochao raised his head high. After all, whether it was Qian Banzhang’s apprentice or Qianbao Group’s youngest treasure appraiser, he was the most proud of his identity.
But unexpectedly, the boy in front of him was so calm when he heard his identity, which made him very upset.
Is this kid a rustic guy? Don’t you know, should you come up to please me at this time?
Xiao Ziyan also noticed Dong Xiaochao's expression change, so she hurriedly opened the topic and said, "Brother Dong, let's go to the market first!"
After saying that, she glared at Xiao He fiercely, her expression full of complaints. She kindly asked Xiao He for Dong Xiaochao for her father's sake, but she didn't expect that Xiao He, the local bun, was not grateful at all.
"Okay!" Dong Xiaochao responded embarrassedly.
His mind was also moved away from Xiao He. In his opinion, there was no need to worry too much with a rustler. Anyway, his purpose was to compete with Xiao Ziyan. Moreover, with Xiao He, the rustler, he might be able to highlight his excellence.
So the three of them entered the antique market. As soon as they entered the market, Dong Xiaochao began to talk endlessly to introduce Xiao He and the others.
"Our Zhongzhou antique market can be ranked in the country. According to legend, it existed since the Ming and Qing dynasties..."
"This street is called Kaiyuan Street, which is more than 800 meters long. You don't have to look at the vendors in front of them. These stalls mainly sell high-quality imitation crafts and have almost no collection value."
"There are some good things in the two hundred meters in the middle, but I advise you not to buy them here. If you get in with your eyes, you will only be fooled by the boss."
Although Dong Xiaochao is talking about you, it is obvious that he is saying this for Xiao He. The implication is that a novice like Xiao He can only rely on himself if he wants to buy real goods.
Xiao He turned a deaf ear to Dong Xiaochao's words, just pretending that a fly was screaming in his ear. Although he didn't know much about antiques, he could also use his spiritual sense to perceive the approximate years of these antiques, so he could also understand the authenticity of these antiques.
Identify clearly.
So when it comes to what Dong Xiaochao said, Xiao He is just like you say it, and I will lose.
Along the way, he also released his spiritual sense and checked the utensils set up by these vendors. Ninety-nine percent of them were modern products, and almost rarely saw an antique of the ages.
Xiao Ziyan was very curious about the antiques around her. She stopped in front of an antique shop with a lot of onlookers.
"Brother Dong, the things here look very good, why don't we choose here?" Xiao Ziyan said.
Dong Xiaochao grinned, "Zi Yan, what thing do you think is good, tell me." He found that this was a good opportunity to show himself, so he would not miss it.
Xiao Ziyan thought for a while and pointed her hand at a vase and said, "Brother Dong, how about that vase?"
Dong Xiaochao only glanced at the vase and said jokingly: "This porcelain seems to be an object from the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it uses modern craftsmanship."
"Zi Yan, look at the body glaze on the mouth of this bottle. The modern traces are already very obvious. The price is 4 million yuan. I think if you remove the next ten thousand words, the price is barely acceptable."
"Ah! Is this fake?" Xiao Ziyan was incredible.
Xiao He was not very surprised. He just saw that this porcelain was indeed a modern product. It took less than a year to complete the product and it could never be from the Ming Dynasty.
Dong Xiaochao nodded and said with great enthusiasm: "There are no antiques on this street that can make me look at."
"Then what do you think of this painting?" Xiao Ziyan pointed to another landscape painting that looked ancient and beautiful.
Dong Xiaochao walked up to touch the painting, and then said, "There is also a problem with this painting."
At this time, the shop owner was not happy, "Young man, my painting is from the hands of Huang Gongwang, a man from the Yuan Dynasty. Look at this paint and this paper, but it is all objects from the Yuan Dynasty.
Don't talk nonsense here."
Dong Xiaochao smiled and pointed at the painting and said, "The outer layer is indeed the authentic work of Huang Gongwang, but the inner layer is copied by modern people. This is clearly a fake painting."
"You see that there are obvious signs of filling the seal. At first glance, it is obvious that there are too many layers of the seal. The ink is not very dyeable, and it will be filled in later."
After saying that, he looked at the store owner arrogantly, "By the way, I am the treasure appraiser of Qianbao Group. You cannot hide the fakes from my eyes."
After hearing Dong Xiaochao's words, the boss instantly changed into a smile, "Master, it turns out that you are the master of Qianbao Group! You see, this is also a small business manager. Why don't you go elsewhere to take a look!"
Dong Xiaochao was very satisfied with the boss' compliment to him. He raised his head high and took Xiao Ziyan and Xiao He and the others to leave the antique shop.
After the scene just now, Xiao Ziyan admired Dong Xiaochao more and more. Looking at Xiao He again, she didn't say a word throughout the whole process, like a silence goose. She must have been stunned. At the same time, she also realized that the water in this antique business
It's so deep that if you can't think of it, you can only listen to Dong Xiaochao's opinions.
Dong Xiaochao also glanced at Xiao He with a proud look. In his opinion, Xiao He must have been impressed by his treasure appraisal method. The reason why he did not speak must be because he felt the difference with him in his heart and was ashamed of himself.
