052: Continuing education

The subsequent time became boring, Xu Lao's mood was very bad, even Jiang Jun, who came later, did not let him reappear his previous smile, at most he nodded his appreciation for Jiang Jun's achievements. It wasn't until Zhou You boldly said that he wanted to follow Xu Lao to continue his studies, that Xu Lao's mood recovered.

Xu Lao Huai agreed with satisfaction: "It's rare for you to have such a mind, and I am naturally willing to fulfill it." ”

"What about us?"

Wang Hao and Jiang Jun also expressed their desire to follow Xu Lao for further study.

Xu Lao finally cleared the gloom in his heart, smiled and agreed: "Okay, okay, you can all come!" Although this house is very large, this is simply a large birdcage, no one chats with me, there is nothing for me to spend time, the days are too monotonous, find something to do to live longer." ”

Jiang Jun cautiously asked, "Teacher, should we inform the other students?"

"No!"

Xu Lao waved his hand and said, "The others are too utilitarian, either enthusiastic about officialdom or sensitive to money transitions, and boring archaeological knowledge is not suitable for them." ”

When Jiang Jun heard this, he didn't dare to refute.

Wang Hao also asked: "Then I don't know where Xu Lao is going to open this class, and what kind of way are we going to teach?"

When Xu Lao heard this, he sighed: "It's not difficult to start a graduate class, but the difficulty is that we can't take classes like before." You all have your own business now, and you're all busy. If all those old guys were still alive, then I wouldn't have to go back to Guangzhou, and I would have nothing to do all day long, living a lonely life of waiting for days to die. Well, sometimes it's not necessarily a good thing to live too long. ”

Wang Hao hurriedly said: "Teacher, don't say that, it's a blessing to be alive." If the teacher doesn't think the three of us are too troublesome, the three of us will definitely come to pester you until you are annoyed. ”

Xu Lao smiled, and the helplessness on his face was much less.

Zhou You reminded: "In fact, it doesn't matter whether the class is open or not, the most important thing is whether you can learn from the teacher." However, I think the kind of video conferencing that is popular in foreign countries may be quite suitable for us. ”

"Video teaching?"

Xu Lao was stunned for a moment and then admired: "Yes, although the video teaching is not as realistic as the personal teaching, it is more convenient and can allow you to have equal learning opportunities everywhere." ”

The smart Jiang Jun also added: "In an emergency, you can ask the teacher why palm your eyes." ”

"You kid!"

Xu Lao was so stimulated that he couldn't speak, but the taste in his heart was quite good.

At least in front of their own students, they are very relaxed and open-minded, and they don't have to be as depressed as they are with their families. Suddenly, Xu Lao felt that it would be wonderful if his children and grandchildren could also think of the three wild boys in front of him so much for him.

When Wang Hao heard the applause, he thought of something and asked: "Teacher, are there ghost markets in Guangzhou?" I remember that the real ghost markets are only in a limited number of places such as Beijing, Tianjin, and Nanjing. ”

The real antique ghost market is usually traded between the second half of the night and before dawn, and it is not every day. Because there are more or less contact with some dark industries here, such a place is mixed with dragons and snakes, all three religions and nine streams, and the liquidity is very strong, and it will be disbanded as soon as it hears any rumors, and it will continue to open until the limelight has passed.

I didn't want Xu Lao to see it this time, so he nodded and said, "Well, it's good for you to go and see it." Like the so-called ghost market in Bird and Flower Street in Mingyuan City, compared with the real ghost market, it is simply a stall, and you can't learn anything. If you have great ambitions, you really have to go to the ghost market. ”

Wang Hao couldn't stop nodding and replied, "We will, we'll go tonight!"

Jiang Jun also said: "I participated in a ghost market in Guangzhou once. But it was too dark to observe anything useful, and it was not very safe, and I was frightened once and never went again. ”

Xu Lao instructed Xu Jie, who had always been an audience: "Xiaojie, you take them tonight, I am relieved to have you." ”

"Yes, Grandpa. ”

Xu Jie is very honest and should be very crisp.

Zhou You said to Jiang Jun: "General, introduce us to us, so that we can be prepared." ”

Jiang Jun sorted it out and said: "The ghost market in Guangzhou is not an open ghost market like Panjiayuan in Beijing and Confucius Temple in Nanjing, but it still follows the old tradition of opening the market in the middle of the night in the middle of the night. Although there are always some dark forces controlling such a place, it is impossible to take care of it, so if you want to go there, you must have a certain means of self-protection to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

Zhou You and Wang Hao's eyelids jumped when they heard this.

Xu Jie said: "Don't worry, I will be responsible for your safety this time." ”

The three of them glanced at Xu Jie suspiciously, and finally chose to trust.

With the identity and status of the Xu family, since they said such words, they could be relieved to travel around.

Jiang Jun coughed dryly a few times before continuing: "That's just a precaution, if the black market in Guangzhou didn't have a certain amount of security, it would have dissipated long ago. What we have to be careful about this time is those people in the thousand doors, and there are some inexplicable unspoken rules. ”

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Jun shared the information he had mastered.

This time, Xu Jie, who had never participated in the black market, was interested, and he was no longer as embarrassed as before.

Because they were going to participate in the ghost market, and Xu Lao was really old, everyone didn't talk for long and went to rest, so they had enough energy to deal with the next ghost market.

…………

The car traveled all the way, aiming for a relatively remote urban village.

They drove not his Volvo off-road vehicle, but Xu Jie's business car. Xu Jie's business car is a very ordinary domestic business car, and the value will definitely not exceed 300,000 yuan, which is more low-key than traveling. To be honest, just from the car Xu Jie drove, I can't tell that Xu Jie is ***.

The space inside the van is spacious, and the five big men seated don't feel cramped at all. It's just that Xu Jie doesn't seem to be good at communication, and the bodyguard who drives the car doesn't talk casually, and the three of them are embarrassed to take the lead, which makes the atmosphere in the car a little embarrassing.

After all, Jiang Jun was a person who had seen the market, and he felt that it was not good to go on like this, so he immediately adjusted the atmosphere: "Don't look at the ghost market in Guangzhou that is not famous, in fact, there are not as many good goods there as in Beijing and Nanjing. I heard that there were also porcelain from the two famous kilns of Jun Kiln and Ding Kiln, as well as works by famous artists such as Wang Xu, Wan Yanjing, Huang Gongwang, etc., and other genuine products that have not been exposed to the real are even more unknown. ”

Zhou You knows that there are a lot of fakes in the ghost market, but there is still a certain chance of the existence of treasures, at least much more real than the so-called stall ghost market in Mingyuan City. It's just that he didn't want the ghost market in Guangzhou to have so many treasures, which surprised him.

Wang Hao couldn't bear to ask, and immediately asked: "In this way, isn't the ghost market in Guangzhou easier to pick up than Panjiayuan in Beijing and Confucius Temple in Nanjing?"

I don't want Jiang Jun to say: "I believe Xu Jie knows this issue better than me." ”

Xu Jie is a young man after all, and he has a strong interest in antiques under the influence of Xu Lao, but he is happy to explain: "In the final analysis, it is the relationship between interests and risks. Because Guangdong is close to relatively open international markets such as Hong Kong and Macao, and there are more wealthy people in Guangdong, the antique atmosphere is not as sensitive as Beijing, so many tomb robbers sell things here as soon as they find something valuable. ”

The three of them all nodded their heads in response.

They are all smart people who travel around and can clearly hear what "international market" and "sensitive" represent.

Over the years, many domestic antiques have repeatedly hit high prices. But everyone knows that the real sky-high price is still created by those rich people in Hong Kong who like antiques, and the Yuanji blue glazed white dragon plum bottle worth 300 million yuan is not the price created by Hong Kong wealthy businessmen?

Such an atmosphere is naturally very attractive to those tomb robbers who see money.

Wang Hao is also self-aware, and said: "My requirements are not high, and I don't expect to pick up any big leaks, I just need to get me a few more porcelain from the Republic of China, or a high-quality imitation." ”

I didn't want Xu Jie to hear the taste, and said: "I heard that you are going to open an antique shop, and I believe there is a lot of demand for goods." If you don't mind the sensitive subject of imitation, maybe I can help. ”

"Please advise. ”

Wang Hao was very concerned about the antique shop, and now that he heard that Xu Jie had a way, he was naturally very anxious.

Xu Jie replied: "Don't you know Teacher Bai? He is one of the organizers behind this ghost market, and he has a large number of high-imitation porcelain in his hands, including national and modern high-end porcelain, if you are interested, you can order it from them, as long as you have money." ”

"This feeling is good!"

Wang Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said excitedly: "We don't want to deceive people with high imitations, we can completely learn from Mingyuan Building to open a special topic of high imitations, provide those new peers to learn and identify, and slowly accumulate reputation." ”

Zhou You reminded: "This is indeed a good suggestion. And recently, the porcelain of the Republic of China has also shown signs of heating up, if we grasp it well, it is no problem to make a small reputation. But if we continue to play, we guess the store will be very large, and the current one probably won't be able to accommodate our plan. ”

Wang Hao's father had found a decent shop for them a few days ago, but the shop was not big and the location was not very good, so everyone has been thinking about it recently.

Xu Jie didn't think about it so much, and said very generously: "Since there is no good shop, then build it yourself and plan it yourself." ”

Zhou You and Jiang Jun's eyelids jumped when they heard this.

I didn't think Wang Hao really remembered something, and said excitedly: "Yes, why didn't I think of this." Recently, our city has been mentioning topics such as urban planning, urban reconstruction, and garden cities? In this case, why don't we follow the example of Mingyuan Building, buy a small piece of land, and build and plan by ourselves? ”

Zhou You asked: "I remember that there seems to be no land for sale in Bird and Flower Street. ”

Wang Hao scolded: "I usually see you so smart, why are you so confused now, if I don't have a goal, will I be excited? ”

Zhou You laughed, not embarrassed at all.

Wang Hao suddenly became worried: "It was originally a dangerous illegal building, but it was abandoned after being forcibly demolished." Because the land is not big or small, at least it is not something that ordinary people can eat, and the real estate developers think that it is not big, and even small buildings cannot be developed, so no one has paid attention to it in recent years. ”

Zhou You's heart moved, and he asked, "How big is it?"

Wang Hao replied: "The details are not very clear, but the ground area is at least two acres, and the land price there is at least two or three million to eat, not counting the construction costs." ”

Zhou You muttered: "It's really a lot, but it's still within the range of bearing." ”

Xu Jie wanted to speak, but when Zhou You said this, he didn't have to waste his feelings, he just secretly kept this matter in mind.

Zhou You thought for a moment and said: "Since you want to do it, make it bigger! Instead of putting money in the bank to get moldy, it is better to use it to start a business." Brother Hao, you want to eat that piece of land, and let me solve the financial matters. ”

"This ......"

Wang Hao wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhou You's serious expression.

Jiang Jun suddenly said, "Why don't you count me in?"

Zhou You glanced at Jiang Jun suspiciously, and asked, "I don't want that senior white-collar job?"

Jiang Jun sighed: "Although it's a pity, a man always has to be a little bold." There, no matter how good it is, it's the life of a working man, but it's different from you, it's the boss, at least in terms of title, it can make me more motivated. ”

Everyone in the car laughed, even the cool bodyguard had a smile on his face.

Xu Jie suddenly sighed: "To be honest, your relationship is better than I imagined, I really envy you." ”

Zhou You's heart moved, and he suddenly asked, "Xu Jie, ask an abrupt question, I hope you don't mind." ”

Xu Jie nodded.

Zhou You asked: "Why is the relationship between Teacher Xu and Governor Xu so stiff?"
