Chapter 11: Bet!
This young man's name is Zhang Haochen, he is Han Jinwen's eldest apprentice, he has been learning antiques with Han Jinwen since he was a child, and he has also obtained Han Jinwen's true biography, it is still possible to be an appraiser in an antique shop, and Lu Desheng also promised Han Jinwen that Zhang Haochen would take over his class after he retired.
But just a few days ago, Zhang Haochen made a mistake and mistakenly took a fake Ji Yun's notebook as the real thing, which made Lu Desheng directly lose more than 100,000 yuan, and also greatly reduced his position in Lu Desheng's heart.
In fact, with the vision that Liu Nan showed today, it is difficult to meet the standards of an appraiser, but I don't know why Lu Desheng always feels that Liu Nan has a mysterious feeling in his heart, which makes him firmly believe that Liu Nan can definitely be the appraiser, so he made such a decision.
Obviously, this decision is something that Han Jinwen and his apprentice can't accept.
"Xiao Lu, what do you mean by this? Didn't we all say that we would let Haochen, the kid, take my place after I retire? Why has it changed now?"
What Han Jinwen said, as early as Lu Desheng's expectations, he knew that making such a decision today would definitely be stopped by Han Jinwen, so he had already had a countermeasure.
"Old Han, I think Haochen should exercise again, just take the fake Ji Yun notebook a few days ago, it is a fake thing that can't be faked, but Haochen is still wrong, you said that I can rest assured that the important position of appraiser will be in his hands? I happened to meet Xiao Liu again today, and found that Xiao Liu's eyesight is really good, so I am ready to let Xiao Liu be an appraiser first, and let him take over when Haochen has the ability. ”
"Do you think Haochen is not capable now? Don't you know that Haochen is mainly engaged in porcelain? Besides, the fake Ji Yun notebook last time, even I may not be able to see the superb craftsmanship of counterfeiting, is it just because of this matter that Haochen will not be allowed to be an appraiser?"
After finishing speaking, before Lu Desheng could speak, he pointed at Liu Nan again and said, "You just said that Haochen is not qualified, is this yellow-haired boy qualified?"
Hearing this, Lu Desheng frowned, no matter what Han Jinwen said about him, he didn't have the slightest opinion, after all, he was also an apprentice of Han Jinwen, but if he said Liu Nan like this, he would be unhappy, after all, Lu Desheng was already determined to let Liu Nan be this appraiser, in case Liu Nan was angry because of Han Jinwen's words, it would be more than worth the loss.
"Old Han, I think Little Brother Liu has this qualification, this Dehua kiln white porcelain is the ...... that Little Brother Liu can see."
Before Lu Desheng's words were finished, he was directly interrupted by Han Jinwen: "Just because of this broken bowl, you can see that he can be an appraiser? If this is the case, people all over the world can be appraisers!"
Then Han Jinwen didn't speak to Lu Desheng, but pointed the finger at Liu Nan, and said, "Boy, let me ask you, who is your teacher?"
Liu Nan hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't have a teacher." ”
"And where did you learn all these curios?"
"The book, the book. ”
"Hmph!!" Han Jinwen sneered, and then said, "How long have you been in contact with antiques?"
Looking at Han Jinwen's appearance, Liu Nan began to get a little angry, he promised Lu Desheng to come here as an appraiser, but because he had just returned home and needed a formal job, plus he didn't know where he came from a special ability that could identify antiques, so he agreed to Lu Desheng, and now he was made difficult by them just after coming here, it is impossible not to be angry, and this job is not what he begged to do, but was invited by others, why should he be angry here now.
Immediately, Liu Nan said fiercely: "How long I have been in contact with antiques is not the main thing, the most important thing is that Boss Lu Desheng personally invited me to come here, he wants me to be an appraiser, you have no right to interfere, besides, there is no problem with being a small appraiser with my eyesight." ”
"Hmph, little appraiser, just with those things you read from the book, even if you give me my apprentice Haochen, I think your level is too low, and you still want to be an appraiser, it's really ridiculous!"
"Old Han, your words are a bit excessive. Lu Desheng listened to Han Jinwen's aggressive words beside him, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, after all, Liu Nan was invited by him, and he was scolded in his own store like this, which was unjustifiable.
"Little Brother Liu was invited by me, and this shop is also mine, it's my business who I want to be an appraiser, and I just want Haochen to exercise for a few more days, if you say that, it's not good, right?"
"Fart!"
When Han Jinwen heard this, he immediately stood up from the chair, pointed at Lu Desheng and blew his beard and glared: "Lu Desheng, Lu Desheng, I didn't expect you to be such a person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, I think back then, if it weren't for me to help you support this store, you would have lost even your pants a long time ago, and now your wings are hard, you don't need me as an old man, right?" But let me tell you, how I helped you up back then, and now I can kick down your shop!"
......
Just as everyone was at a stalemate, the door of the antique shop was pushed open, and two men in suits walked in from outside, the leader of the group looked to be about fifty years old, with shiny reflective hair, neatly combed back his head, just like those successful people on TV.
Behind him, a man about thirty years old, holding a small red box in his hand, walked towards Han Jinwen.
"Yo, what's wrong with you? I heard the sound of a quarrel inside outside the door, Old Han, who provoked you again?" the middle-aged man laughed and said to Han Jinwen.
This middle-aged man's name is Fan Luwei, a jade merchant in Zhangkou City, and a very famous entrepreneur in Zhangkou City, whose biggest hobby in life is collecting antiques, so he usually comes here whenever he has time, and he is very familiar with everyone here.
Han Jinwen, who was blowing his beard and glaring, saw him come in, calmed down, slowly sat back on the chair, looked at Fan Luwei sitting next to him and said: "Alas, some people want to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and find a yellow-haired boy who learns knowledge from books, and they are going to replace Haochen as an appraiser, can I not be angry about this?"
For people like Fan Luwei, who crawl around in the mall every day, just hearing this, he understood the whole thing, glanced at Liu Nan and the others, and said to Han Jinwen: "Han Lao, we are all old, and our children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, so don't worry about it, if you have this angry time, it is better to drink tea and chat, how comfortable it is." ”
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to Lu Desheng and said, "Old Lu, I bought another thing today, you can give me a palm and see how my thing is." ”
When Lu Desheng heard this, he gave Liu Nan a look, and the two sat down together, and then Fan Luwei waved his hand at the young man standing behind him, and the young man stepped forward and put the box in his hand on the table and opened it, and a green porcelain incense burner was presented in front of everyone.
This incense burner is green all over, with a fiery red mark and three calves at the bottom, the most peculiar thing is that on the outer side of the incense burner, there are some horizontal lines of different lengths, although Liu Nan doesn't know anything about these things, but he still knows these things, and these horizontal paths are a gossip pattern.
The history of the incense burner can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties at the earliest, the earliest was used to pray for blessings and safety, and then slowly became liked by the literati and ink writers, placed in the hall or placed in the study, and lit a stick of incense when reading, and then there was a wonderful artistic conception of "red sleeves adding incense to reading at night".
"This incense burner was found on the stall today, and I bought it back, according to my opinion, this thing should be an incense burner from the Longquan kiln of the Song Dynasty, Lao Lu, how about you show this thing?"
Hearing this, Lu Desheng was about to get started, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was interrupted by Han Jinwen's voice: "Hmph, some people's skills are learned from me, why let him get started? ”
"This ......" Fan Luwei hesitated, if the two of them were allowed to compete, it would be tantamount to making things bigger, he was unwilling, after all, people who do business pay attention to harmony and make money.
But Liu Nan, who was sitting on the side, was furious when he heard this, since he came in, this Han Jinwen has been very unkind to him, but Liu Nan also respects him more, so he endured it, but now he actually started to scold himself, even if he is a clay man, he is angry now, let alone Liu Nan.
"Hmph, old immortal, please pay attention to what you say, I respect you, so I don't want to trouble you, but if you continue to speak politely, then don't blame me for disrespecting the old man, and you just said that you want to have a competition, I'm very interested in this, but if you want to compete, you have to bring some bets, right?
