"Okay, good, this time I have to be pleased. ”

The old man Shang also smiled proudly, and took Shang Muli and Xu Qingliu into the small shop, found a table casually, and sat down.

Xu Qingliu and Shang Muli had already held a lot of questions in their stomachs, waiting for Old Man Shang to answer them, and they just got the opportunity.

The first question was Shang Muli: "Grandpa, how do you know the owner of this breakfast shop? ”

In Shang Muli's mind, grandpa has always been a representative of the upper class, how could he know such a breakfast shop owner.

This is exactly what Xu Qingliu wants to know, and when he heard the old man Shang call him Brother Xu, this person will not ......

Thinking of this, Xu Qingliu couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Shang, this boss won't have anything to do with you, right?"

Hearing the two juniors ask, Shang Muzhi couldn't help laughing: "What, Xiao Xu is surnamed Xu is not surnamed Shang, more than ten years ago, when I first met Xiao Xu, he pushed a small cart to sell breakfast nearby, at that time I encountered some accidents, I didn't have much money on me, so I ate his breakfast once, I didn't expect it to taste so good! ”

"I see. ”

Shang Muli nodded thoughtfully, this is indeed in line with grandpa's style of doing things, in fact, grandpa is also a relatively kind person.

"Here comes the buns!"

The restaurant served the food quickly, and it didn't take long for the owner to bring the restaurant's most famous xiaolongbao.

The old man Shang was busy beckoning the two small ones to eat.

"Taste it, Xiao Xu's skills in making steamed buns are a must, I just ate his steamed buns and never forget it." ”

Hearing what Old Man Shang said, Boss Xu smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Brother Shang, who are these two?"

The old man Shang remembered that he hadn't introduced his granddaughter and Xu Qingliu to others, so he hurriedly introduced them: "This female doll is my granddaughter, called Shang Muli, and that male doll came with my granddaughter to participate in the original stone conference, called Xu Qingliu." ”

When Boss Xu heard the Rough Stone Conference, his eyes lit up suddenly: "The Rough Stone Conference? I can't see it! It's a hero out of a teenager!"

Old Man Shang didn't know why, he always felt that when people praised Xu Qingliu, she was also honored, raised her head proudly, and said: "Yes, after a long time, the waves push the front waves, we are old." ”

"Hahaha!"

The two businessmen had not seen their old friends for a long time and laughed together.

But not long after, Boss Xu stopped laughing and said, "Since this little brother Xu can appreciate stones, will he appreciate treasures?"

Old Man Shang was curious, he hadn't heard of any good things in the Xu family before, otherwise, where would this Brother Xu use to go out and set up a stall, so he asked: "If you appreciate treasures, our little Brother Xu is also a good hand, what's wrong? Brother Xu, do you have anything you want to identify?"

Boss Xu's expression began to be a little distressed: "Yes, my family has always had a baby, passed down from the ancestors, to my generation I don't know how many generations, I never suspected that it was a fake, but in the first two years, our family was not very happy, I wanted to sell this baby for some money, they all said that my baby is not old, not worth much, so I am very suspicious, I don't know if it's true or false, I want to find someone to see, and I don't know who to find more reliable." ”

"Hahaha! Brother Xu, you really found the right person this time, the three of us here can read antiques, our merchants are making antiques for generations, this little brother Xu is also Xu Qiao in our industry, but it's amazing. ”

Old Man Shang made no secret of his admiration for Xu Qingliu.

Boss Xu didn't expect him to meet a noble person this time, and said excitedly: "Great! Great! That's really effortless, then you eat first, I'll make you something else to eat, and we'll ...... after we finish eating."

Boss Xu was a little embarrassed, after all, he asked someone for help.

Old Man Shang also saw that he was embarrassed, so he took his words and said, "After we finish eating, I'll go home with you and take a good look at such a treasure." ”

Xu Qingliu ate his breakfast, and of course he didn't refuse him, after all, eating people has a short mouth and short hands, and it's not a bother to do it with such a little favor.

Seeing that everyone is so active in helping him, Boss Xu is really moved, and he doesn't know how much virtue he has accumulated in his previous life, so that he can meet someone as good as Mr. Shang in this life.

He was very excited, and said, "Okay, then I'll go get some food first." ”

I have to say, this old man is really good at eating, the breakfast in this shop tastes really good, this xiaolongbao has a lot of thin skin and filling, and when you bite into it, it is full of juice, fresh but not greasy.

After taking a look, the crystal shrimp dumplings, ten-mile fragrant small wontons, and rich soy milk are all evocative.

After the old man and Xu Qingliu were full of food and drink, the people in this breakfast shop were probably gone, as the boss, Xiao Xu was not too busy to take a break, so he asked his son who was helping in the store to watch the store, and he took the ancestors of the Xu family and a Xu Qingliu back to his house.

Boss Xu's home is not far from his shop, and he originally opened it for the convenience of opening a store, so he found a place to rent near his store, and later bought it when he got rich.

In fact, the environment of that place is still good, push open the door is the bluestone paved path, and when it rains, you can open the gate to enjoy the unique rain in the south of the Yangtze River hitting the bluestone, so not elegant.

Boss Xu invited the three of them into the house, Xu Qingliu couldn't help but look around, and found that this was the unique design of the Four Waters Guitang in Jiangnan, so he couldn't help but admire: "Boss Xu, your house is really chic." ”

Boss Xu touched the back of his head and said, "Actually, I don't understand these either, it's all made by the child's mother, and the child's mother is from Jiangnan." ”

"Oh, yes! No wonder this room is so elegant inside and out. ”

Old Man Shang couldn't help but sigh.

The people in the room also heard the sound of someone talking in the hall and asked, "Old Xu, have you brought someone back? What are you doing standing outside!

Sure enough, the voice coming from the room was tactful and melodious with the unique Wu language.

Lao Xu heard this voice and hurriedly replied, "Eh! I'll go in." ”

Then he turned his head and explained to the old men Shang: "This is my child's mother, let's go in." ”

The three of them nodded and followed Lao Xu into the house.

When the three of them entered the house, they saw the woman lying in a rocking chair, supporting her head with one hand, reading quietly.

It can be seen that the woman is petite, although she is thirty or forty years old, she still looks very young, and she is a typical Jiangnan person.

When she saw the crowd coming in, she also stood up and beckoned them to sit down on the chairs in front of the hall.

"You sit down and talk first, and I'll make you tea." ”

As he spoke, he smiled at everyone and walked out.

Old Man Shang smiled heartily at this time, and quipped: "I can't see it, your kid is lucky, he found such a beautiful daughter-in-law." ”

Boss Xu was like a hairy boy who hadn't grown up at this time, grinning and smirking "hey, hey, hey".

Xu Qingliu couldn't stand it anymore, patted Boss Xu's shoulder and said, "Pay attention, we are still single dogs," and shook his head: "And don't you want to identify antiques? Go and take out the things and show them to us." ”

Boss Xu was a little embarrassed by Xu Qingliu, and hurriedly said: "Eh, I forgot about it, you wait here for a while, I'll go get it." ”

Old Man Shang comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, we're free today, don't worry, you can take your time." ”

Boss Xu nodded straight like a chicken pecking rice, but he didn't dare to be a little sluggish in his movements, so he hurriedly ran into the house and took out the mahogany box that had already accumulated dust.

When Boss Xu came out with something, Mrs. Xu also happened to come out with tea, and said with a smile: "I soaked in Longjing before the rain today, and my brother sent it to me, and I specially took it out today to entertain distinguished guests." ”

Boss Xu nodded with satisfaction: "Humble Jing is right, this Longjing is a good thing before the rain, and we don't see it here, but this tea is fragrant, and I haven't forgotten this taste after drinking it twice." ”

Mrs. Xu was disgusted: "Look at you like that, drink your tea." ”

People like Mr. Shang, of course, have heard of Longjing before the rain, and he was very good at this before, but there are few Longjing products before the rain, and only in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and it is usually expensive to buy, and Mr. Shang has drunk it once or twice. I miss that smell too.

Everyone picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea in the cup, the crisp feeling immediately filled the entire mouth, the tea slightly with some bitterness, in short, full of Zen taste, which made people taste fragrant.

This tea has also been tasted, it's time to get down to business, the old man Shang put down the tea cup in his hand and said, "We have also drunk this tea, Brother Xu should hurry up and take out the treasure and show it to us." ”

Boss Xu took out his baby mahogany box and put it on the table, and those who know how to see this mahogany box should know that this treasure must be real, because ordinary fakes are really not worth it, and they will not use such a good agarwood box.

However, whether it is true or not, it is too early to draw conclusions.

Old Man Shang motioned for Xu Qingliu to step forward and check it carefully.

Xu Qingliu also understood what he meant, put on gloves, and stepped forward to open the wooden box.

Xu Qingliu's expression became serious and serious, which was completely different from usual, which was also one of the important reasons why Shang Muli fell in love with him, this man's serious work appearance was really charming.

The wooden box contains a piece of lacquerware, Xu Qingliu preliminarily determined that it was a lacquer plate from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, but the problem is that generally the lacquer plates of the ages are covered with pulp, but this lacquer plate does not.

Shang Muli also received his grandfather's gaze and took a step forward, in order to be able to better observe this lacquer plate.
