Chapter 598: Wen Plays Walnuts
"Miss Wang, Mr. Su, Miss Dong, please come in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Seeing Wang Siya come in, several middle-aged men and women hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, they were the sons and daughters of the old man who contracted the land, and they seemed to know Wang Siya's identity, and they were very polite.
"Miss Wang, Miss Dong, Mr. Su, I am glad to meet you. "The other people who came to the bidding meeting were also quite polite. Business belongs to business, no matter whether you can grab it or not, you can't offend the royal family in the capital because of this. Some of them are already pondering whether to resell the land to the Wang family as a favor if they can get the land down. They don't mind working in vain, as long as Wang Yan is really willing to accept this favor. Of course, there are also some people who really want to grab this land, after all, even if the royal family in the capital is rich and powerful, it is impossible to bully and dominate the market for this kind of thing.
"Miss Wang, welcome. Even the gray-haired old man who was sitting and drinking tea was quite polite, he was the contractor of this land - Lu Xueliang, looking at his attitude towards Wang Siya, everyone knew that Wang Siya might have taken the lead.
"You're welcome, everyone, please take a seat. Lu Xueliang's sons and daughters greeted and poured tea for everyone, and the hospitality was warm. They have different thoughts from Lu Xueliang, they want to turn this land quickly, so that they don't have to worry about this land, Lu Xueliang can also follow them to live in the city with peace of mind, the old man is old, they don't feel at ease when they live here alone, but they don't want to live here with them.
"Old man Lu, I heard that you like to collect and play walnuts?" said a thin middle-aged man. In the many competitions present, his ears were pricked up, Lu Xueliang not only likes to play Go, but also likes to collect and play peach pits, this is not a secret, they have all understood.
"That's right. Lu Xueliang nodded.
"I don't know what type the old man likes, tiger head, lion head, official hat, chicken heart?" said the thin middle-aged smile.
"Hehe, all kinds of things are collected, and I like all kinds of things. Lu Xueliang talked about his interests and immediately smiled.
"Some time ago, I happened to get an official hat, and I don't know how to appreciate it, so I gave it to the old man, you can see if it looks good. The thin middle-aged man said, took out a box, and handed it to Lu Xueliang.
"Oh?" Lu Xueliang was not polite, he opened it directly, and inside the box, it was a walnut. Steady and solemn, the convex is dotted and reticulated, the two edges are wide and straight, and the tip is blunt and rounded. The body is beautiful, much like the hat of a Qing Dynasty official. It is worth mentioning that this kind of peach pit was particularly sought after in the Qing Dynasty royal family, and there was a saying that "the official hat is in hand, what do you want", and it is precisely because of this implication that it is more sought after.
"Not bad. Lu Xueliang nodded appreciatively, obviously he liked it, the thin middle-aged man was proud, this gift was really right.
"Old man Lu, it just so happens that I have also prepared a walnut, see if you like it. At this moment, the long-faced young man sitting next to Wang Yan spoke up and handed a box to Lu Xueliang. Before that, he looked at Su Jing with hostile eyes for a long time.
Lu Xueliang was still not polite, took the box and opened it, inside was a large peach pit, with a stable appearance, a convex belly and a flat bottom, thick edges and blunt tips, and a large concave bottom. Viewed from the side, it resembles the shape of a horse's hoof.
Seeing this peach pit, Lu Xueliang's eyes suddenly lit up, and a fine light burst out, and the faces of the thin middle-aged and other competitors changed slightly. Those who know the know that this peach pit is an authentic horseshoe lion head, although this is not the rarest species of lion head, but this one is too big.
As one of the four famous pits, the lion's head peach pit is a treasure series among the walnuts. The reason why it is named "lion head" is because when it is turned upside down, the appearance is very similar to the mane of the stone lion in front of the yamen in the old days.
Lion's head walnut has a long history, and was warmly sought after by princes and nobles in ancient times, and is now a very common category in cultural play. Historically, a literati described the lion's head as follows: "Gentle as a gentleman, generous as a wise man, short and dwarf, and dusty as a child."
The varieties of the lion's head are also varied, the horseshoe lion's head is one of them, the general side width is more than 4 cm, it is more worth collecting, the side width reaches 4.5 cm, it is very rare, now in front of this, it is estimated that there are 4.5 cm.
"What do you think, old man?" The long-faced young man caught Lu Xueliang's eyes, and there was a hint of smugness on his face.
"Haha, that's very good, young man, you have a heart. Lu Xueliang did not hide his affection at all, and the thin middle-aged man was a little depressed, and this time he gave away the official hat to go down, and the other competitors were also depressed, and some of them also prepared peach pits, but it was far worse than this lion's head, and now they can't take it out.
"Yan'er, I said that Old Man Lu would like it. The long-faced young man triumphantly whispered to Wang Yan next to him, but Wang Yan didn't hear it, his face was calm, and he drank tea slowly, which made the long-faced young man feel very unaccomplished.
The long-faced young man still had a smile on his face, and thought: "Wang Yan only came to meet me just to deal with her parents, but she didn't even look at me, probably thinking that I was a lazy and incapable rich second generation." However, if I can compare to Su Jing, she should be impressed. This piece of land is also really good, and it is very worth taking. Why not develop the industry while defeating your opponents?"
What the long-faced young man didn't know was that his eyes happened to fall into Wang Yan's eyes, and Wang Yan had already guessed that meeting Su Jing here this time was probably not a coincidence, but the long-faced young man did it intentionally, which made her feel a little disgusted.
This time, the family did not force her to marry someone else, although the blind date was arranged by her parents, but whether it would be done or not, there was no force. Wang Yan also went on a blind date with a normal mentality to see if the long-faced young man was worth dating, in many ways, the long-faced young man was quite good, but she didn't feel like love at first sight, so she planned to observe slowly and behaved relatively coldly. Unexpectedly, the long-faced young man actually arranged such a chance encounter with Su Jing, which made her quite disappointed.
However, she didn't say anything, maybe in her heart, she seemed to want to see if this long-faced young man could compete with Su Jing. For some reason, she really wanted to see Su Jing eat deflated once, even once.
"Ah Jing, have you prepared a peach pit? I have prepared a peach pit, but it can't compare to other people's. Dong Xun whispered.
"Nope. Su Jing shook his head.
"How can you not prepare, I have pinned my hopes on you. Dong Xun smiled.
"You didn't say that he likes peach pits, and besides, I don't know anything about peach pits. Su Jing shook his head with a smile, but as soon as he finished speaking, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "Wait, no, I have peach pits." ”
"Really?" Dong Xun and Wang Siya's eyes lit up.
"Wait a minute, I'll go get it in the car. Su Jing ran to the car, in fact, it was just to make a appearance, the peach pit was in the storage bag, and when he came back, he had a big peach pit in his hand, Dong Xun and Wang Siya's first thought was, can they be like others, packaging it in a box, but after seeing the peach pit clearly, their eyes lit up, and Lu Xueliang suddenly stood up.
