Chapter Sixty-Nine: Everyone in the Circle Knows
A storm has finally subsided, and this unforgettable treasure appreciation meeting has finally come to an end.
Everyone sitting on the rostrum returned to the VIP tea room, but Professor Ji wanted to catch a plane back to Jiangdong and leave early, Zhen Haidong was even more unwilling and did not have the face to stay for a long time, so he left first, while my father, Brother Guang and Sun Wei walked with me.
Brother Yang instructed the tea master to serve tea, naturally it is still the Sanqing tea that Jin Lao likes, it seems that Brother Yang has a lot of respect for Jin Lao, which also makes me strengthen my confidence in having a deep friendship with him. After all, it is more difficult for a person who respects his teachers than to honor his parents, and such a person is definitely worthy of deep friendship.
At this time, my dad squeezed his eyebrows at me, and I reflected it, and hurriedly introduced my dad, raised his voice and said, "Dad, let me introduce you." ”
When they saw me speak, they were silent.
"This is a master of Chinese studies, Jin Lao, who just accepted me as an apprentice. From now on, it's my Master Kim. I smiled and said, "This is Qian Lao, the honorary vice president of the Palace Museum, who also accepted me as an apprentice just now, and will be my Master Qian in the future." ”
"What do you mean, is it Jin Lao and Qian Lao, have they accepted you as an apprentice?"
Uncle Jin interjected, "Hehe, my master and Mr. Qian are open-minded by nature and have no views on the door. Just now, I felt that the calf was pure by nature and had a very high understanding, and all of them took him under the door. By the way, my name is Jin Dayou, and I am the senior brother of Maverick. However, my daughter and my prospective son-in-law are both classmates of Xiao Niu, so let's go our separate ways, I'll call you Brother Niu. ”
Seeing this, my dad said, "Yes, yes, we are the same age, so we must be equals." ”
"Senior brother, I'm all this age person, I'm still afraid of suffering this loss, it's not big for you, it's not for me. Brother Yang quipped.
"Oh, Mr. Yang, could it be that you are too?" my father was surprised.
"Uncle, I'm also Maverick's senior brother. Brother Yang said.
I'm really sweating, Brother Yang, who is usually so serious, is so funny in front of acquaintances.
"Mr. Yang, you are tormenting me. Originally, you asked the calf to call you big brother, which was inappropriate in itself. My dad said.
"It's okay Uncle Niu, I'm not as stingy as the fat man and I'm afraid of losing. Besides, I'm so young, it's no problem to call you uncle. Brother Yang said.
Uncle Jin's face was flushed, if he was based on his seniority, he should really call my dad something nice, but this is the same age, maybe older than my dad, which is really embarrassing.
Seeing this, Jin Lao said: "Zhigang, don't mess around, you guys should talk about each other." ”
"Yes, Master. Master reprimanded, and Brother Yang naturally didn't dare to mess around anymore.
The tearoom also quieted down, and several research institutes of the Palace Museum were more embarrassed, and after asking Qian Lao, they also left first.
Seeing that there were only trustworthy people left in the room, I asked Jin Lao, "Master, what do you mean by saying that owe fire on stage?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone present looked at each other, but none of them answered.
Ten seconds, twenty seconds.
In the end, Jin Lao broke the tranquility.
"Maverick, you have been in the industry for a short time, and there are some things you don't know. Jin Lao said, his face expressionless.
I vaguely felt that Jin Lao saw that the ink was probably a fake made by the Zhen family according to historical records. But Jin Lao didn't mean to say it explicitly.
If you don't do it, you have to ask sooner or later. Thinking of this, I pretended to have the courage to ask, "Master, are you saying that the Zhen family's things are not hot?" I have been wording this question for a long time, if Jin Lao bites to death and doesn't want to say it, it won't be too embarrassing.
Jin Lao was stunned when he heard this, and Brother Yang immediately couldn't sit still, and asked with a shocked face: "Little Niu, you actually know that the Zhen family is making fakes!"
"Zhigang!" Jin Lao's eyes widened angrily, and he immediately shouted sternly, and I was startled. I didn't expect that such a kind and approachable old man would also have such a stern side.
"Master. Brother Yang also seemed to be frightened.
"There are things that you can't say if you see through them, do you have evidence?" said Jin Lao.
"Master, don't be angry, Zhigang is also young. Uncle Kim persuaded from the side.
"That's right, Brother Jin, this Zhen family has been dumping cultural relics, and it hasn't been a day or two since they made and sold counterfeits. Qian Lao also spoke.
I was shocked and looked at my dad, whose expression was exactly the same as mine.
"Brother Qian, why are you fooling around like such a young man. Jin Lao was very helpless.
"Hey, I've been in the collection circle for a long time, so naturally I know a little bit. It's just that there is no evidence, no matter who can help it, and second, the Zhen family has a deep foundation, and some small things, they don't know how to settle them. Alas, the scum of the collector's circle. Qian Lao sighed.
"Yes, I still remember that in the 90s, it was rumored that someone had collected evidence of the Zhen family's crimes. But then, no one is gone..."Jin Lao's words were full of desolation.
My dad was silent, I didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't answer.
"Okay, let's not talk about him, Maverick, you remember, don't provoke the Zhen family easily. Although good will eventually triumph over evil, my old man, I don't know if I can see this day. "Jin Lao's words make me a little sad, I can really feel that these people who really love antiques and traditional culture are painful in their hearts, real pain.
"I don't know if your generation has been able to dismantle the real group. Qian Lao was also full of emotion.
"Master, Mr. Qian, don't worry, you two can rest assured, I will definitely take it as my responsibility to hit the Zhen Group and eradicate the cancer of the collection circle. Brother Yang immediately expressed his position.
But the second elder obviously didn't trust him very much, "Zhigang, although your family is good and powerful, the Zhen family is not a wine bag and rice bag. In terms of intrigue and ruthlessness, you are far from them. It's better to provoke less. ”
"Master, are you so afraid of the Zhen family? You are a master of Chinese studies, and Master Qian is also a well-known figure in the collecting world, if you are all so cowardly, who can defend justice?!" I saw that Jin Lao was hesitant and very unhappy to protect himself, and said bluntly.
Uncle Jin immediately looked at me nervously, Qian Lao's eyes did not change when he looked at me, and Jin Lao's eyes immediately became sharp.
I mustered up the courage to look at him, for a second, for five, for ten seconds.
At this time, Jin Lao's gaze became gentle, and he smiled, "Haha, Brother Qian and I, we didn't see the wrong person." ”
I was confused by the sudden change, what is the situation, it stands to reason that I should be reprimanded.
Qian Lao also said: "It's good to be young. The key to having a hard work is to be able to know good and evil, and dare to adhere to principles. ”
"It's good to be a collector, to be a scholar, and to be a person. The most important thing is an obsession to persevere. Maverick, to keep the false and the true, I will give you these four words, I hope you will always remember and abide by them. ”
I realized that maybe it was just a trial. hurriedly bowed and saluted, apologizing for the rudeness just now, and keeping the four words of removing the false and keeping the true in mind.
