Chapter 126 Traveling with each other
Xu Youyou couldn't help laughing when she looked at the middle-aged man in front of her who was still wearing the old Tang suit even on this occasion today.
"Wang Huaigu, I'm lucky to know." The man in Tang suit reached out.
Xu Youyou gently held his hand: "Xu Youyou." Then he took the initiative to introduce the person beside him: "This is Mr. Lu Jingyao and Lu."
Wang Huaigu chuckled and said, "Mr. The youngest richest man is very good at standing with Miss Xu. It's really better to see him than to hear him."
Lu Jingyao was very happy to hear this, but Xu Youyou said, "You misunderstood. Mr. Lu and I are just ordinary friends."
Wang Huaigu looked at Lu Jingyao beside him, muttering in his heart that Lu Jingyao's eyes did not look like ordinary friends, but he did not expose the tricks of young people in person to talk about friends. Instead, he said neatly:
"Haha, it turns out that's not? I've read it wrong, but handsome men and beautiful women are really pleasing to the eye when they stand together."
Xu Youyou smiled generously when she heard this and said, "I just think you are praising me for being good-looking."
However, compared to Lu Jingyao, Wang Huaigu was more interested in Xu Youyou and said, "Miss Xu, you don't seem to be walking around the capital often. You have never seen you before. Are you a child of the Xu family in Guangcheng, southern China? Speaking of which, I know several elders in your family, all of whom are famous talents."
Xu Youyou had never heard of the Xu family in Guangcheng. She didn't want to pretend to be someone else and said, "You misunderstood. I'm just an ordinary antique businessman and have no origin."
When Wang Huaigu heard this, he shook his head: "Ms. Xu is too modest. There are no ordinary people who can get here."
Xu Youyou didn't want him to keep the rhythm, so he asked on his own initiative: "What collection did Mr. Wang bring here today? Can you take a look?"
Wang Huaigu was generous and took out a wooden box.
Xu Youyou didn't know much about the wood, nor did she see how special the wood was. She only vaguely smelled a fresh fragrance.
After the wooden box was opened, the thing inside was a cup.
Wang Huaigu said, "Two, please help me."
The material of this cup is not porcelain, the body of the cup appears a clear yellow color and does not look topaz.
Xu Youyou looked at the pattern on the cup intently: "Eight Immortals celebrate their birthday?"
Wang Huaigu nodded slightly, but still didn't say more.
Xu Youyou thought of a certain sentence: "It smells strange, is it a rhinoceros horn cup?"
Wang Huaigu looked at Xu Youyou with praise: "Miss Xu is clear and her eyes are bright."
Xu Youyou looked at the pattern on the rhinoceros horn cup carefully and said, "This looks like the artistic style of the Ming and Qing dynasties."
Wang Huaigu admired Xu Youyou's eyes even more: "Miss Xu, you can guess things without seeing the signature just by just one glance. This shows that you are born to be a person in our profession."
When Lu Jingyao heard this, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes. Xu Youyou was praised, and he also felt honored, just like a treasure cast by a pearl, and finally her brilliance was seen by outsiders.
Xu Youyou shook her head modestly: "You are too proud, I just said it casually. Who would have thought that it was right?"
Wang Huaigu said, "You girl is too modest. Many people are serving tea and water outside at your age. You can see so much just by taking a look and never passing it. It is already amazing. You are really a heroic boy." Xu Youyou knew in her heart that she was not as good as others said. She was just standing on the shoulders of the giant system, and she still had a lot to learn.
She had never played rhinoceros horn cups in the past, and had vaguely heard that the country now seems to have banned such crafts. It seems that such a treasure is difficult to get again, so she asked, "Don't you plan to keep such a good cup by yourself?"
Wang Huaigu immediately said, "Of course I have to keep it myself, I bring this cup for people to see."
Xu Youyou immediately understood that some people came to the exchange meeting for business, while others came to the purely show off.
Wang Huaigu continued to say proudly: "I bought this cup in Panjiayuan. They always say that there is no real thing in Panjiayuan and refuse to admit that it is because they are incompetent. I brought this treasure just to slap them in the face!"
Xu Youyou naturally knew that the "they" mentioned by Wang Huaigu refers to the antiques walking together.
For those who are playing in this industry, buying high-priced bargains at low prices is not only a proof of their luck, but also shows that they have strong eyesight. If you want this kind of thing twice once, you will be addicted.
Xu Youyou has just entered the industry and has not picked up bargains for a while now, she will feel itchy. Spending money is not surprising to her, but she enjoys the tension and stimulation of picking up bargains.
Wang Huaigu was proud of the rhino horn cup, and he was interested in teaching Xu Youyou. He asked, "Little girl, guess how much did I spend on buying this cup at that time?"
Xu Youyou was helpless: "I can't explain this clearly. If I really want to guess one, then it will be three hundred."
Wang Huaigu's face immediately wrinkled like constipation.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Xu Youyou looked surprised: "I guessed it right?"
Wang Huaigu opened his face and nodded: "Young people's brains are easy to use. Miss Xu, you guess casually, and it's just a single child. It's really the next wave of the Yangtze River pushes the previous wave."
Xu Youyou felt a little embarrassed by his praise, and said casually, "I'm guessing too."
Wang Huaigu said: "If you guess so accurately, it means that you have a very accurate grasp of the value of the item..."
When Wang Huaigu said this, he suddenly stopped.
Xu Youyou suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart
Sure enough, the man asked the next second, "Miss Xu, you have to tell me the truth. Since you are not a good person to fool, we were in Lao Zhang's store that day. Lao Zhang sold you the price of the goods to you, but you accepted them all. There must be something I don't know. Is that bird cage really a treasure?"
Xu Youyou nodded slightly, but she didn't expect this person to be so keen.
Wang Huaigu slapped his thigh hard: "I knew it! I thought you were a little girl at that time, but I couldn't say what was wrong with her. The bird cage always opened its mouth and was actually a treasure. In fact, I wanted to take it off sooner. Who knew it was a treasure! Tell me in detail!"
Xu Youyou explained: "That was a bird cage made by the palace construction office during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty."
Wang Huaigu nodded vigorously: "That's right. Lao Zhang said that this thing was sold to him by the descendants of the prince. Emperor Qianlong loved his younger brother and Prince Hongzhou very much. This ridiculous prince is famous for playing. It is not surprising that his descendants have a bird cage in their hands."
Xu Youyou didn't expect that this thing had an accurate source. It's a pity that because there was a layer of paint on it, even future generations would be skeptical about its origin.
As for why we need to use a layer of paint to protect it, not only hide the outsiders, but also deceive our own family members. As for the reason, everyone present does not need any verbal explanation.
Wang Huaigu asked again, "Miss Xu, has the bird cage taken action? Can you let me see the photos?"
