A few days ago, his father told him that he didn't expect that "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" was actually written by a little girl. This little girl was not only beautiful, but also talented and possessed of unique skills. He asked him to get acquainted with it.
He didn't take it seriously at the time and thought his father was urging him to find a girlfriend again.
Later, Li Zao asked him if he could bring friends. He also told his father, how could a beautiful and talented little girl not be pursued by anyone? She already had a boyfriend.
But now, he couldn't say it, he was just happy from the bottom of his heart.
Suddenly I felt that returning to China to take over the auction house was not that difficult.
Li Zao and Su Kui entered the exhibition hall under the leadership of Ji Li.
It truly deserves to be the number one auction house in Jiangcheng. Even the exhibition hall is so grand.
Every work inside is protected by a glass cover and is only for appreciation.
Su Kui couldn't hide her excitement and whispered: "Every one of these items is of museum quality. Not only are they expensive, but they also need to be carefully stored. Will anyone really buy them?"
"Real enthusiasts will buy them for collection, but not many. More people buy them as gifts."
"Giving such expensive things as gifts?"
"For rich people, being expensive is secondary, and being decent is the most important."
Su Kui shook her head, "I don't understand the world of rich people."
Li Zao teased her, "As long as you want, you can go home and inherit the family business and become a rich person."
Su Kui suddenly shuddered, "That's not necessary."
Ji Li heard their whispers and asked, "Li Zao, is this friend of yours also traveling with us?"
As soon as Li Zao moved his lips, Su Kui interrupted: "No, no, no, I am Master Li's little follower."
Li Zao smiled and introduced: "This is my childhood friend, Su Kui, who graduated from Qingmei and now opens a gallery."
Ji Li smiled elegantly, "Then you'd better go with me."
Su Kui felt guilty for a moment, "Haha, it's a small gallery, not worth mentioning."
Most of the silk fabrics on display at this exhibition are embroidery, and all of them are made by famous artists.
The lifelike works cannot be discerned from a distance, but up close they look more like oil paintings.
No, it is more delicate and vivid than oil painting.
Among all the embroidery works, "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" is the only tapestry fabric, making it a unique existence.
Many people stopped in front to admire it.
"I saw this "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" on Mr. Ji's WeChat Moments. Now that I see the real thing, the craftsmanship is really amazing."
"Mr. Ji is going to take action? I've been tempted for a long time."
"Pay attention to the prompt. This work is for display only and is not included in the auction."
"I know why Lao Ji is willing to give up his love and whet our appetite."
"Oh my god, it's actually Kesi. It's so beautiful. This craft must have been at least twenty years old, right?"
"I can't stop looking at it. This artist named 'Dazao' only has this one piece of work, and it is probably the vest of some famous artist. Nowadays, there are only a handful of people who can master the Kesi craftsmanship so vividly. They are all very old.
The old master."
Everyone was chattering, and Su Kui on the side was very happy. She tugged Li Zao's sleeves and said softly: "If you count from scratching Zhou, it's almost twenty years of craftsmanship."
"Shh..."
Li Zao turned to Ji Li and asked, "Mr. Ji, can you do me a little favor?"
"What?"
"Don't reveal that I am Dazao."
"Why?"
Li Zao's smile was as bright as a flower, and his eyes were always shining with confidence, with a little bit of playfulness, "I want to secretly hear others praise me."
Ji Li smiled, admiring her more and more, "Okay."
A group of people finished their comments and walked away. Su Kui took Li Zao over to take pictures.
If you don’t take a photo and post it on Moments, today will be in vain.
At this time, an evil female voice sounded in my ears, "Why is she here?"
Li Zao's heart trembled, it was Lu Xianglan, that...
Slowly turning his face to the side, he saw Lu Xiangning looking at him with the same inquiring eyes.
What she feared might come true.
They are all invited VIPs. Watching the exhibition is only second, making friends is the first priority. All of them must be glamorous. Men's suits and leather shoes, and women's couture dresses are all standard.
Lu Xianglan wore the 9-carat drop-shaped diamond necklace that her mother gave her for her birthday last year.
In contrast, Li Zao's casual clothes looked particularly shabby.
Lu Xiangning's nobility is innate, and decent clothes are just the icing on the cake.
The exhibition hall shines the best light on the exhibits, but it can still become the focus of the crowd and attract more attention than those exhibits.
Li Zao could probably guess why the brother and sister came.
What a coincidence, Lu Xianglan is also a student of Qingmei University, and they are alumni of the same class.
She and Lu Xianglan are the same age and went to Qingmei in the same year. Although they majored in different fields, the name of the daughter of the Lu family is well-known. As soon as she entered the school, she became a famous figure and everyone knew about it.
She took two years off from school to take care of Lu Xiangning. Now, she has just graduated from undergraduate degree, while Lu Xianglan has already graduated from graduate school.
They are both graduates and members of the Lu family, but the attitudes of the Lu family towards their daughter and daughter-in-law are very different.
Lu Xianglan has prepared a personal studio and will open it soon.
And she still has to run for a living.
Lu Xianglan would not miss today's professional exhibition.
When Gu Zheng saw the couple meeting, it was not a big deal to watch the excitement, and he quickly came over to greet her, "I asked her why she came here. She probably knew you would come, so she came to you to make her presence felt."
Lu Xiangning bit his back teeth hard and said, "Get out of the way."
That's his wife, who dares to accuse her?!
Gu Zheng is thick-skinned and notoriously venomous. He has always spoken freely and has no moral integrity. "Women love to play hard-to-get tricks. How can she let you go so easily if she doesn't peel off every layer of your skin?"
!”
Lu Xiangning glanced at him with venomous eyes and warned sinisterly, "If you say another word, we will end our relationship!"
"..."
How can a friendship that started with crotchless pants be broken off so easily?
Ji Li over there couldn't hear very clearly. He only knew that Mr. Lu and the others had been looking at Li Zao.
So, he asked curiously, "Do you know each other?"
Li Zao turned around, smiled, and said loudly and without hesitation, "I don't know him."
Lu Xiangning: "..."
Lu Xianglan sneered disdainfully, and suddenly pulled Zhao Zichu to her brother's side, "Sister Zichu, you and my brother look better together. You are a talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven."
Su Kui sneered unceremoniously: "I've heard that mice give birth to a litter, but I didn't expect that a blind man can also have a litter of blind people. The high heels on the feet are half as high as the head. Once you take them off, what's the cutest height difference?"
Lu Xiangning is 186cm tall and Zhao Zichu is 162cm tall. There is a height difference of at least 24cm. Even if Zhao Zichu wears high heels, he is still a lot shorter than Lu Xiangning.
And Li Zao is 170cm tall. Can the 24cm height difference make him a better match than the 16cm height difference?
However, Su Kui spoke softly and only Li Zao heard it.
Li Zao secretly laughed and shook his head to signal her to stop making trouble.
