Chapter 477 Preliminary Intent
Zheng Zheng also wants to say that only his own family has the strongest ability to repair antiques in heaven and earth, and he will definitely not leave a trace or anything in the restoration of antiques, so as to calm Anna. But Zheng Zheng can't say this absolutely, he has to leave some way back. Not to mention that he has not completely and systematically learned to restore antiques, the craftsmanship is secondary, just talking about this antique, there are all kinds of situations.
In the case of porcelain, if a piece of porcelain is broken, the ideal situation is that the place where the porcelain is broken does not fall out of any invisible powder, it is all clean stubble, and there is no trace when spliced together. In this case, it is very simple to repair, and the next situation is that when it is broken, some invisible crushed powder falls out of the crack, although it is no problem to stitch the cracked place together, but there will always be some cracks as thin as cow's hair. In this case, it is more troublesome, and you have to use various methods to cover up this rift.
In the worst case, the porcelain is not repaired immediately after it is broken, but the fragments are preserved, and it takes a long time to find someone to repair it. You must know that the stubble of porcelain is pointed and edged, and it will prick your hands when you touch it. And the stubble of these fragments is very fragile, and after a long time, if there is a little bump and polishing, the stubble with sharp edges will become smooth at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
This kind of porcelain fragments with rounded stubble, when taken individually, the difference is not very large. But when these pieces are put together, the problem arises: there is no complete fit between the pieces and the pieces.
If this is the case, no matter how strong the ability to restore the antique, it will leave traces on the surface of the antique after it is restored. This is the problem of the antique itself, and the later restoration can only make up for it as much as possible, but there is no guarantee that it will be completely restored. However, in this regard, the technical level of the restoration of antiques and the materials used are crucial. If a master has a good glue for bonding antiques, then he can't completely erase these traces, but he can make these traces as little as possible without destroying the beauty of the porcelain itself, and even make the porcelain more beautiful because of these cracks. And without a more advanced glue of this material, even if the level is the same, this effect will not be achieved.
More importantly, the glue that binds antiques should be able to ensure the strength of the bond. If the adhesive strength of the glue is not high enough, even if it is temporarily bonded, but the antique can not be forced, and it will break again with a little external force. This is even more important when dealing with porcelain antiques that have broken into a lot of fast breaks.
Zheng Zheng knew his level, so when he told Anna, he didn't say it to death. Leave some way back when you speak, and it will be easier to deal with anything in the future.
"If Mr. Zheng can really do this level, it will be amazing......"
Hearing Zheng Zheng say this, Anna didn't look disappointed. Although he is only a half-bottle of vinegar in terms of antiques, he knows how difficult it is to restore antiques.
After thinking about it, Anna looked at Zheng Zheng and said, "Mr. Zheng, one of the family assessments you have to complete is something I can help you with." Because of our common hobbies and social circles, I have relationships with some European royals. Mr. Zheng, if necessary, I can introduce Mr. Zheng. ”
Zheng Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not speak. Although he had pondered from the beginning that Anna should have a relationship in this regard, Zheng Zheng didn't dare to be completely sure, and now that it was finally confirmed from him, Zheng Zheng also felt a little relieved. And the reason why he didn't speak was to wait for what Anna had to say next.
He doesn't have much friendship with Anna, can he help himself for nothing? Anna must not have finished speaking. Zheng Zheng and others are waiting for Anna to say his conditions.
Seeing that Zheng Zheng didn't speak, Anna touched his nose and said, "Although I can introduce the members of the royal family to Mr. Zheng, if I introduce Mr. Zheng to the royal family as an appraiser, it will not attract their attention." So, when I introduced Mr. Zheng, I was going to tell them about Mr. Zheng's superb ability to restore antiques. But ......"
Zheng Zheng smiled in his heart and said in his heart, "It's here." What Anna said was basically nonsense, and the real voice still fell behind this "but".
"Pardon my offense. ”
Anna said to Zheng Zheng quite sincerely, then frowned slightly, and said, "Although Mr. Zheng said that he has such ability, I have not seen it with my own eyes. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, there would always have been some inconvenience when introducing Mr. Cheng to the royal family. So, in order to make it easier to do this, I would like to ask Mr. Zheng to show me your ability to restore antiques first. If it is really as Mr. Zheng said, there is a basis for me to introduce Mr. Zheng to the members of the royal family. ”
Hearing Anna's words, Zheng Zheng said in his heart: "Hey...... Who said that all foreigners are rectum-based? Isn't this old Anna's ability to beat around the bush not bad? Saying all this is nothing more than asking me to restore an antique for him and then introduce me to the royal family. Well...... It's a good idea to be able to verify my level and gain some benefits for myself through this incident. It seems that he is not good enough in antiques, and his level of business is still quite high......"
I thought so in my heart, but Zheng Zheng didn't show any expression on his face, and said with a smile: "It's total, I'm willing to demonstrate it for you." ”
Anna also smiled and nodded, after laughing he wanted to say something, but subconsciously looked at his watch, and then smiled: "I didn't notice that it was so late...... Looks like it's not going to work today. Well, tomorrow. Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, still here, I will wait for Mr. Zheng to demonstrate to me your ability to restore antiques. ”
"Yes. ”
Zheng Zheng nodded in response to this matter, and said, "However, Mr. Anna, if I want to do this, I still need your help for me." ”
"Well, what's the problem?" said Anaki.
Zheng Zheng shook his head and said: "The problem is that there is no problem, but I need to use some necessary glue and other things when repairing antiques." And the ingredients of this glue are to use some medicinal materials. I am not familiar with Rome, so I have to ask Mr. Anna to look for these herbs. ”
"Is it a Chinese herb?" Anna asked.
Zheng Zheng nodded and said, "It is a Chinese herb." Rest assured, the herbs I need are very common and not hard to find. However, in Europe, it may be a little problematic. But I believe that this should not be difficult for you, Mr. Anna. ”
"Hmmm......"
Zheng Zheng praised Anna even if he put Anna on the shelf, Anna could only stubbornly say: "So, what herb does Mr. Zheng need? I can try my best to find it for Mr. Zheng." ”
"Bring me a piece of paper, and I'll write it down for you. Zheng Zheng said.
Anna took the pen and paper, and Zheng Zheng wrote down all the medicinal materials he needed. The English translations of these herbs were the ones he had looked up a long time ago and memorized. Fortunately, these medicinal materials are not obscure medicinal materials, and they can be found in the English translation, otherwise Zheng Zheng would really have to call Zheng Yonghe and ask him to mail the required medicinal materials over. It's not a hassle, but it's also a waste of time, isn't it?
After writing down the required medicinal materials, Zheng Zheng handed the list to Anna and said, "This is all the medicinal materials I need." In addition, I also need a casserole pot for boiling medicinal materials, which should be available everywhere I sell. In addition to this, some charcoal is also needed, which is necessary for boiling medicinal materials. ”
Speaking of this, Anna laughed: "Charcoal is easy, I have some refined charcoal specially used for grilling meat, which is made from fragrant wood, and when lit, the fragrance is tangy. ”
"No......" Zheng Zheng shook his head and said, "You can't use this kind of fragrant charcoal for boiling medicinal materials, please find some charcoal that has no fragrance after burning." ”
"Okay. Anna shrugged her shoulders and said. He looked at the list that Zheng Zheng had prescribed, and frowned, "I can't guarantee that I can find all these medicinal herbs tomorrow...... Well, I'll get all the herbs you need within a week. I'll give you a call when I'm ready. ”
"No problem. Zheng Zheng nodded and smiled: "Then I'll wait for Mr. Anna's news." ”
After leaving his phone number, Zheng Zheng said goodbye to Anna and returned to the hotel.
The next day, Zheng Zheng and Bai Xiaoxue were tired of crooked for a long time before they remembered what happened to Roland before. He called Roland, informed him, and sent the rest of the money to Roland.
Zheng Zheng also considered giving Roland a little money as hush money, but after pondering left and right, Zheng Zheng still didn't do it after all. If you take the initiative to give him hush money, it is easy for him to be treated as a fat sheep, and it will be a trouble to continue to blackmail yourself with this in the future. Moreover, judging from Roland's performance, he is not a person who can keep a secret, even if he is given hush money, but if Anna asks him, the secret will not be kept. If that's the case, then why spend that unjust money?
In the current situation, Zheng Zheng is not too worried about Anna knowing how he is close to him. If this hadn't come to this, Anna might have known that something might be wrong. But now that Zheng Zheng has proven his ability, and he has to prove his ability to restore antiques to Anna, how Zheng Zheng approached Anna is not a very important question.
Anna is a businessman who knows what is important and what is not. Although his level in antiques is not high, Zheng Zheng believes that he still has the basic qualities of this kind of businessman.
