The night before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

There is still one last day left before Shen Qiu and Hong Chaoyang's Doubao, and the heat in the market is already unprecedented.

The program of "Treasure Appreciation and Sword" was originally broadcast once a week, but because of this special day, a special episode was added, and the tickets for the live broadcast have long been sold out, and even a ticket is hard to find.

This is the highest competition in the history of Jiangcheng antique industry, the duel between the two treasure masters, one old and one young, one is a new master, and the other is a veteran master on the battlefield, the strength of both sides is undoubted, and the excitement of the competition is also conceivable.

At the same time, Han Kuisheng set up a luxurious banquet in the most luxurious five-star hotel in Jiangcheng.

The eighteen dishes during the banquet are all the signature dishes of the hotel, and there are a total of four people during the banquet, namely Han Kuisheng, Han Cong and his son, Hong Chaoyang, and Xu Mingming, who has just arrived in Jiangcheng today.

As soon as the "Senior Brother ......" banquet began, Hong Chaoyang poured Xu Mingliang a drink: "Actually, I really don't need you to come to Jiangcheng this time, Shen Qiu has that bit of strength, I can easily handle him alone, and I am afraid that it will be a bit overkill to let Senior Brother Xu come here." ”

Xu Mingliang tasted the liquor elegantly: "I have a general understanding of this Shen Qiu's situation, to be honest, in this world now, it is indeed very rare to have such an awareness at his age, I have to say that this Shen Qiu's talent is still very good, quite like when I was young, it would be a pity if it was so wasted......

Han Kuisheng answered: "Senior brother, we have also worked hard, and we have prescribed him a lot of expensive conditions, but this Shen Qiu is a master who does not eat soft and hard, and he has used all the methods that should be used, and there is really no way to win him over, and he even called Ye Mei to press me......"

"Well, I know the situation, and it's no pity that things have come to this point...... I came to Jiangcheng first for the bronze wooden fish, by the way, to visit Senior Brother Han, knowing Chaoyang and Shen Qiu's Doubao, then stay by the way to be a spectator, Senior Brother Hong, when the time comes, you can play normally, but don't make any trouble, then you will be embarrassed by our master!"

"Hmph, Senior Brother Xu, you're joking! Although I'm not as good as you, it's still a piece of cake to deal with a small role like Shen Qiu! If I can't take Shen Qiu, I can do whatever the master does!"

Han Kuisheng came up again and said: "Senior brother, I also believe in Senior Brother Hong's strength, but the only thing I'm worried about now is Guo Quancai, if Guo Quancai shows up......"

"Huh...... I came to Jiangcheng to defend this hand, if he Guo Quancai dares to show his face! I will carry his head back to report the good news by the way! Hehe...... I wish he had shown up......"

......

At half past six in the evening, the tavern on Chang'an Avenue was lit up, and a fashionably dressed beauty sat in the tavern, looking anxiously around, as if she was waiting for someone here.

The appearance of the beautiful woman is eye-catching, which attracts the special attention of many men around, because this tavern is usually a gathering place for drunkards, and it is rare to see such young, beautiful and temperamental beauties.

The beauty is none other than Xie Jingwen, the owner of Xuan Bao Zhai, who is not here to drink, but to meet a very important big man here.

Originally, Xie Jingwen would not meet anyone alone, but the name of this big man surprised her, and the appearance of this big man also had a crucial relationship with Shen Qiu's Tomorrow Doubao, so she had to come tonight.

When night fell, it was almost half past seven o'clock, the big man was late, the big man was dressed very shabby, carrying a snakeskin bag in his hand, and took out a bottle of Jiangcheng's self-produced old white gan from the snakeskin bag.

The old man sat opposite Xie Jingwen, unscrewed the lid and was not polite, and drank three taels of white wine first with the two plates of cold dishes in front of him.

"Sir, you are ...... Are you really Guo Quancai?"

Xie Jingwen only heard the name of this person, so he agreed to meet here, what kind of person is Guo Quancai, everyone in Jiangcheng who mixes in antiques knows that the first treasure appreciation master in Jiangcheng is even above Hong Chaoyang.

Legend has it that this Guo Quancai is different from others, all relying on a thread, an ordinary and impermanent fine velvet thread, porcelain listening, calligraphy and painting to distinguish traces!

What does it mean? It means that when distinguishing porcelain, a fine velvet thread is tightened on the porcelain mouth, and the authenticity of the porcelain can be distinguished by the echo emitted by the rebound of the velvet thread, as well as various situations.

When encountering calligraphy and painting antiques, this thin line is used to sweep the surface of the calligraphy and painting, and the various conditions of the calligraphy and painting are judged according to the traces of the surface of the calligraphy.

It can be said that Guo Quancai's skill is unique in the whole Jiangcheng, and even in the whole country, I don't know how many antiques have passed through his hands, and he has never been overlooked, and some people even saw him use this thread in his hand to easily get Hong Chaoyang, which gave him the title of the first treasure connoisseur.

And Hong Chaoyang was reduced to the second millennium in Jiangcheng.

"You...... Are you really Mr. Guo?" Xie Jingwen asked in disbelief, and suddenly felt an inexplicable excitement, as if a young fan had seen the idol of his dreams.

The old man took a breath and said, "What? Do you think I'm here to cheat on drinking? Although the old man loves to drink, he still doesn't want to do this kind of thing......

As the old man spoke, he took out a small velvet thread from his pocket, but this velvet thread had been baptized by the years and was now red and black.

The old man gestured at Xie Jingwen and gestured to a green jade-faced ring she wore on her finger.

Xie Jingwen understood, and then took off the ring between his fingers and handed it to the old man.

The old man's two fingers tore open almost a foot of velvet thread, gently scraped it across the surface of the ring, and returned it to Xie Jingwen in less than a few seconds.

"Your ring is well preserved, at least two hundred years of history from now on, in the year is also the daughter of a large family to be able to wear this expensive jade ring, the ring is carved with auspicious patterns, with a hundred birds and a phoenix as the theme of many birds portrayed vividly, although it is not a palace craftsman work, but from its completeness. But it is no worse than the techniques of the Qing Dynasty officials!"

Xie Jingwen nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, Master Guo is right! This jade ring was left to me by my father, and it was received by my ancestor back then, and Master Guo's eyesight is really not ordinary!"

The so-called connoisseur knows if there is one as soon as he makes a move, originally Xie Jingwen didn't quite believe that the sloppy old man in front of him was Guo Quancai, and when he took out the velvet thread, Xie Jingwen already had a bottom in his heart.

When the other party completely said the situation of the jade ring, Xie Jingwen unconditionally believed the identity of the master in front of her, and the person sitting in front of her should be the first treasure master in Jiangcheng.

"Little girl, since I called you out, I'll make a long story short, what I'm going to talk about is the treasure fight between Shen Qiu and Hong Chaoyang tomorrow! Are you interested in knowing?

"Master Guo! Then you can't ask for it! You have competed with Hong Chaoyang, and your strength is naturally very clear! It would be great to be able to get your guidance from Master Guo!"

"Then I'll tell you the result clearly, I don't need to be on the scene to know the answer to tomorrow's Doubao, Shen Qiu will definitely lose!" Guo Quancai raised his head and took a sip of liquor and said bluntly.

"Ah...... Master Guo...... This...... Why is this ......" Xie Jingwen opened her mouth and asked in surprise.

As you said, I have competed with Hong Chaoyang, I know his strength better than anyone else, Shen Qiu's fight with him is undoubtedly hitting a stone with an egg, and losing the fight is quite light, in my opinion, he will end up with Feng Kaiyuan nine times out of ten, and it is possible ......to die directly on the scene if he doesn't get it."

"Ah...... Shen Qiuhui ...... Master Guo, you ......"
