Chapter 516: The Li Clan's Ambition
However, when communicating with himself, Xu Qingliu did not show the slightest arrogance, but showed a humble appearance, and he will definitely make a difference in the future.
This immediately made Li Lao feel good, and looked at Xu Qingliu in front of him with warm eyes.
He knew that although Xu Qingliu seemed to be young now, if he could always uphold his humble character, he would inevitably become a giant in the antique world in the future, and this kind of potential stock was naturally worthy of his Li family's friendship.
You must know that the Li family, as a family specializing in counterfeiting, was originally resisted by many treasure connoisseurs in the antique industry.
It is because of the left and right sources of the Li family that they can survive in the cracks.
If they can make friends with Xu Qingliu, if Xu Qingliu becomes a big name in the antique industry in the future, it will also be a force that cannot be underestimated for their Li family.
"I don't know if Elder Li left me alone this time, but what's the matter?" Looking at Elder Li's warm smile, Xu Qingliu opened his mouth to break the silence.
Hearing Xu Qingliu's words, the smile on Old Li's face slowly converged, revealing a look of wanting to speak and stopping.
Seeing Li Lao's appearance, Xu Qingliu didn't speak, his eyes were staring at Li Lao, but Li Mo next to him sighed secretly.
"The reason why I asked you to come here this time is that I really want your help with something. Li Mo said.
Hearing Li Mo's words, Xu Qingliu's brows quietly furrowed slightly, and he looked at Li Mo with a puzzled look.
Although he has not been in contact with Li Mo for a long time, he also knows that Li Mo's personality is relatively arrogant and self-contained.
Ordinary this kind of character, it is extremely arrogant, and although Li Mo has spoken very little since he came here, he must also belong to this kind of person.
Otherwise, Li Mo would definitely not have stayed where he was after stealing the collection of this treasure appreciation meeting.
It is clear that he has a great grasp of the collection he imitated, and it is true, if it weren't for Xu Qingliu who had the Heavenly Book of Treasure Appreciation, he might have really succeeded by Li Mo.
Because of this, it is rare for him to ask for help.
Now that he has asked for himself in public, the next thing must not be simple.
Although he has some contact with the Li family now, in Xu Qingliu's opinion, there is no need for him to compromise at all.
The position of the Li family in his heart is not very important.
"I will consider it as much as I can. Xu Qingliu said.
Hearing Xu Qingliu's humble answer, not only Li Mo, but even Li Lao suddenly showed a helpless smile.
Although Xu Qingliu's age is indeed relatively young, his art of speaking is really human.
"The reason why we kept you this time is mainly because we want you to help our Li family get a collection at the treasure appraisal meeting in two days, but it is only a temporary loan, and it will definitely be returned in the future. Li Mo finally said what he thought in his heart.
Hearing Li Mo's words, Xu Qingliu was stunned and looked at him with strange eyes.
"What do you mean, your Li family has set its sights on the most finale collection at this treasure appreciation meeting?!" Xu Qingliu said.
Li Mo and Li Lao glanced at each other, a wry smile appeared on the corner of their mouths, and then nodded slowly.
"Our goal is the finale item of your treasure show, and we must copy it this time!"
Looking at Li Lao's meaningful gaze, Xu Qingliu was stunned for a moment, especially when he heard that their purpose was to make a fake.
Suddenly there was a gasping sound from his mouth.
"Xu Qingliu, although our Li family is now well-known in the fake family, but the fake family is also ranked among the top five fake families, although they are all in the capital, but they can all imitate the zodiac, and our Li family can only imitate some large-scale modern antiques now, which is still relatively poor. Li Mo said.
Li Mo's voice shocked Xu Qingliu back from that shock, and when he heard their voices, the corners of Xu Qingliu's mouth showed a wry smile.
"Then according to your meaning, do you just want to use the collection in this treasure appraisal meeting to successfully imitate it?" Xu Qingliu said.
A strong fiery meaning appeared in the eyes of Li Lao and Li Mo, and then they nodded slowly.
"Although there is still a big gap between the collection in this treasure appreciation meeting and the 12 zodiac signs, if it can really be imitated successfully, it will enhance the reputation of our Li family in the counterfeit world again. Li Lao said very sincerely.
"It's just famous, why don't you care so much?" Xu Qingliu's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked suspiciously.
"It's not that we care about this kind of fame, as a fake family, it needs a lot of collections for juniors to identify, only in this way can the juniors' ability to appreciate treasures be rapidly improved, if our Li family's reputation is not high, then the channels and means of collecting collections will be reduced a lot, and then the Li family will not be able to cultivate new people. Li Lao said.
Hearing Elder Li's words, Xu Qingliu immediately rolled his eyes, but he also knew that there were many branches in the antique world.
Xu Qingliu fell into hesitation.
Although he is the biggest dark horse at the treasure appraisal meeting, he will indeed have close contact with the collection tomorrow, but according to Li Lao's meaning, he still has to take out the collection, which invisibly increases the difficulty of Xu Qingliu.
What is played in the antique world is antiques, so if Xu Qingliu wants to take out the collection, not to mention the attitude of the elder for the time being, it is very disrespectful to just say such things, and just now Xu Qingliu knows that he is staying here.
If he really brought up this matter, Zi Xu Qingliu didn't need to say much, he only needed to tell him about his contact with the Li family, no matter how strong his treasure appreciation ability was, as long as it was related to the word fake family, it would be a troublesome matter.
"I'm afraid the kid can't do anything about this matter. Xu Qingliu hesitated, but still sighed and said.
Hearing Xu Qingliu's words, Li Lao and Li Mo's eyes suddenly showed a sense of loss, and the corners of their mouths suddenly showed a bitter smile, nodding slightly.
"If this is really difficult for you, then just do it. Li Lao said.
Although they did hope that Xu Qingliu would be able to take out the collection at the treasure appraisal meeting, they naturally knew the consequences of doing so.
After all, their Li family and Xu Qingliu have not been in contact for a long time, and Xu Qingliu, as a treasure connoisseur in the antique world, does not have to give them a compromise, but if this is the case, then they will feel regretful.
The situation of the Li family is indeed not optimistic, otherwise Li Mo would not have thought of taking the collection from the treasure appraisal meeting.
"Xu Qingliu Xiaoyou, no matter what, since I have already promised you just now, you can't refuse me again at the Southeast Regional Treasure Appreciation Conference in half a month, and we will go over together to participate in it when the time comes. Li Mo said.
Hearing Li Mo's words, Xu Qingliu's brows furrowed slightly, if he really followed the Li family to the Southeast Region Treasure Appreciation Meeting, he would definitely dye himself a lot of gossip at that time, but Xu Qingliu groaned slightly, and still nodded.
"If I really have time, I'll try to go there when the time comes. Xu Qingliu said.
Hearing Xu Qingliu's answer, Li Lao's heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, although Xu Qingliu didn't look good when he rejected them just now, but when he brought up this matter, Li Lao already knew that Xu Qingliu would open his mouth to refuse, so he was not surprised.
Seeing that Li Lao and Li Mo both fell silent, Xu Qingliu immediately hugged his fists and left, not wanting to continue to bother, Li Lao nodded and never got up, but Li Mo next to him immediately followed behind Xu Qingliu, and then took out the note from his body.
"It's my phone number, just call me if there's anything. Li Mo said.
Hearing Li Mo's words, Xu Qingliu frowned slightly, but did not refuse, but directly reached out to catch the note.
After leaving the restaurant, Xu Qingliu contacted Shang Muli, and now the treasure appraisal will be delayed for two days, and Shang Muli will definitely have nothing to do now.
After dialing the phone, Shang Muli asked Xu Qingliu to hurry to Xinbao Street, and then hung up the phone in a hurry.
Hearing the name of the place in Shang Muli's mouth, Xu Qingliu was stunned for a moment, lest something happen, and hurried over.
Xinbao Street is also a well-known antique street here.
After taking a taxi, Xu Qingliu rushed directly to Xinbao Street, but after arriving at Xinbao Street, Xu Qingliu saw that the street was empty.
Xu Qingliu was puzzled, after all, many people now like to collect antiques, not to mention the real or imitation, but there are always a few pieces at home, so for them, it has become an indispensable thing to come to Xinbao Street to shop.
But just dialed the phone, the movement from here suddenly made Xu Qingliu feel puzzled, and then he hurriedly walked inside, and when he walked to the interior of Xinbao Street, Xu Qingliu was stunned, it turned out to be Shang Muli.
But now opposite Shang Muli stood a middle-aged man with a height of eight buckets, looking at him with an angry gaze.
If it weren't for the people around, the middle-aged man would have smashed Shang Muli's body with his fist, and seeing the appearance of the middle-aged man, Xu Qingliu's brows furrowed slightly, and he hurriedly walked over and stopped the middle-aged man.
"Mu Li, what's going on?" Xu Qingliu asked.
Seeing Xu Qingliu rushing over, Shang Muli showed an old-fashioned look, and pointed directly at the middle-aged man opposite.
"It's this guy who has to take a fake and sell it to an old woman, I can't get used to it, so I stopped it, but he has to argue with me that this thing is genuine, not a fake. Shang Muli said angrily.
Hearing Shang Muli's words, Xu Qingliu suddenly rolled his eyes, and suddenly felt a little helpless in his heart, no matter what, it doesn't matter if people sell genuine or fake products, it doesn't matter to others.
There is a term in the antiques world called eye-punching, which means that the authenticity of a fake is all a matter of personal eyesight.
