The little boy's mother took the jade pendant and handed it to Meng Zitao: "Teacher Meng, please help me take a look." ”

"It's up to the children's faces. ”

Meng Zitao muttered in his heart, found a reason for himself, agreed to help with the identification, and asked the woman to put the jade pendant on the low display cabinet next to her, and briefly explained the reason for doing so, and then picked up the jade pendant.

"This gentleman, I don't know where you bought this jade pendant?" Meng Zitao asked as he looked at it.

"I bought it in a local jade shop in southern Yunnan two years ago and spent 35,000 yuan. The man looked a little nervous: "Teacher Meng, is there something wrong?"

Meng Zitao nodded: "Then I'll tell you the truth, this piece of jade jade pendant was expensive when you bought it, but fortunately, the price of jadeite has risen rapidly in the past two years, and the current value is not a loss." ”

The man's nervous cold sweat at the beginning flowed out, and he breathed a long sigh of relief after listening: "It's good that there is no loss now." ”

"If you don't lose anything, if you put the money in the bank, won't there be no interest? More than 3,000 yuan in two years is almost half a month's living expenses for our family. The child's mother was suddenly unhappy.

The man endured not to speak, he knew his wife's character too well, at this time, no matter what he said, she could find out the words, as long as he didn't buy a fake, it wouldn't be long before the matter passed.

After the family of three said goodbye to Meng Zitao, they went to the service desk to get the commentary equipment.

After they left, Meng Zitao saw that the staff wanted to speak and stopped, he smiled and said, "If there is any problem, you can just say it." ”

The staff was a little embarrassed: "Teacher Meng, I'm sorry, I want to ask, what's wrong with that piece of jade jade pendant just now?"

Meng Zitao said: "It is that B goods are sold as A goods, but they are only modifications to some small defects, although they have a certain impact on the overall value, they are not big." ”

After listening to the explanation, the staff suddenly realized, no wonder she just thought that the jade pendant looked fine, it turned out to be the case.

"Teacher Meng, what are you discussing?"

At this time, a voice came from the side, Meng Zitao looked back, and the owner of the voice was an old man in his fifties who was full of energy, and this person was Qian Xingye, the director of the museum.

"Hello Curator Qian. ”

Meng Zitao shook hands with Qian Xingye with a smile and briefly said what had just happened.

This kind of situation of selling B goods as A goods is very common, Qian Xingye just sighed a few words, changed the topic, and took Meng Zitao to the reception room.

"Just now, there was an etiquette teacher who came to the door for training, and I snubbed you, I'm sorry. Qian Xingye personally poured tea for Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao smiled and said politely.

After a few words of greeting, the two of them got to the point, and Qian Xingye took out the materials that had been prepared a long time ago and handed them to Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao read the information and asked a few key questions during the period.

Qian Xingye answered everything he could answer, and some of the problems involved in the parameters had to be solved by the employees of the security company.

"Hey, why hasn't Manager Zhang come over today?" Qian Xingye was a little strange.

Meng Zitao said: "Manager Zhang called me and said that they encountered a car accident on the way here, and they needed to solve it before they came, so they should be coming soon." ”

"Is the car accident all right?" asked Qian Xingye with concern.

Meng Zitao said: "Manager Zhang said on the phone that the person is fine, but the car was seriously damaged, and it is now being solved by the traffic police." ”

"Oh, it's good that people are okay. ”

Since Qian Xingye couldn't answer some questions, he changed the topic and talked about antiques.

Meng Zitao asked Qian Xingye if it was not easy to buy antiques overseas. This question asked Qian Xingye's sadness for many years.

If we want to do business in other places, there will be many difficulties in part-time work, let alone foreign countries where we don't know much language.

Qian Xingye is because of his professional relationship, and his English is okay, but the different customs and customs of various countries still make him encounter many things and grievances in the process of acquiring antiques, which is still good, and sometimes encounters dangers.

"Hey, you don't know, the most dangerous time, people are about to shoot, fortunately I was lucky, there happened to be a policeman passing by, scared the gangsters, I escaped with my life, I will never forget that scene in my life. ”

Qian Xingye sighed with emotion: "After so many years, I still feel that our country is the safest, although there are deficiencies in all aspects, but overall, the environment is getting better and better, and I don't know why, there are so many people complaining in society now." ”

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Maybe this is the so-called more patriotic when you go abroad." ”

"It makes sense that only when you go abroad do you know that the moon abroad is not rounder than at home. ”

Qian Xingye laughed: "Don't talk about these things, say something happy." To say that foreign Taobao has a benefit over the domestic one, those foreigners don't know the goods, when I first went abroad, it was like walking gold and silver, and I didn't know what to buy. At the beginning, the money in hand was limited, and I could only choose carefully, but now it seems that I was very wrong, I knew that the appreciation potential of antiques was so great, if I were not so picky, I would definitely earn more than now. ”

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "We don't have the ability to predict the future, otherwise we can all speculate on stocks from commoners to billionaires." ”

Qian Xingye nodded and said: "What you said is very reasonable, the matter of hindsight is unacceptable." ”

After chatting casually for a while, the people from the security company finally came.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Manager Zhang apologized to the two of them.

Both of them said that it didn't matter, after all, the accident was something that no one wanted to see.

Manager Zhang said angrily: "Speaking of which, we are unlucky, early in the morning we actually met a drunk driver driving a motorcycle, we stopped and waited for the red light, he directly hit the rear of the car, which scared us all." ”

"Drunk driving is harmful. Meng Zitao and Qian Xingye were also a little speechless.

"No, he also asked me not to call the police, and the traffic police were on the side at the time, and it was a shame for him to say it. ”

Manager Zhang was angry and funny, briefly talked about how to solve the follow-up, and then talked about business.

Meng Zitao asked a few questions that had not been answered just now, and after getting satisfactory answers from Manager Zhang, he then observed the security equipment of the museum under the leadership of Qian Xingye and Manager Zhang.

As a storeroom for placing treasures, it must be the top priority, Meng Zitao really wanted to visit, at first he was worried that Qian Xingye was a little resistant, but after contact, he knew that he thought too much.

Under the leadership of Qian Xingye, Meng Zitao not only got the security information he wanted, but also appreciated many of Qian Xingye's collections, many of which survived only a handful of collections, and even had unique products, which opened Meng Zitao's eyes.

"Among these collections, I think the most interesting is this large plate. Qian Xingye opened a box and saw a colorful plate inside.

The outer wall of this large plate is three very characteristic patterns of enlightenment, the first pattern has a big drum, a double ling, a small bottle, a red kidney bean; the second pattern has leaves, a white rabbit, a lamp, a small red seed; the third pattern has a pen holder, a guqin, a hosta, a lingzhi, in addition, there is a copper coin and two Go pots in the three patterns.

Seeing this large plate, Meng Zitao became interested, because such a combination of patterns is unprecedented, and it is difficult to imagine why this pattern was designed in the first place.

However, it is certain that since the ancients designed this combination of patterns, it must not be arbitrary, and there must be a reason for it.

"Teacher Meng, what do you think these combinations mean?" Qian Xingye had the idea of teaching Meng Zitao in his heart, this was not any malice, but he simply wanted to see Meng Zitao's level, after all, everyone is curious.

"That's a bit difficult. ”

Having said that, but Meng Zitao didn't find it too difficult, he had too much information stored in his head, and he believed that this question still couldn't help him.

Generally speaking, if you want to know the meaning of the pattern on a piece of porcelain, you have to take the time to look closely at the object in the painting and figure out the intention of the maker.

The method used by Meng Zitao was very simple, he first judged the production time of the porcelain, and then judged the meaning of the porcelain based on the background of the time at that time.

After a while, Meng Zitao had an idea in his heart, and said with a smile: "I think the meaning of the three pictures is the meaning of the drum order Ping Demon, the disciple, and the meaning of the must be captured, in addition, the Go box and the copper coin in the three groups of patterns also express the meaning of 'Qi Qian', I don't know if what I said is right, Director Qian?"

After listening to Meng Zitao's explanation, Qian Xingye showed a look of surprise on his face: "How did you come up with it?"

Mencius Tao talked eloquently: "I first broke off this large plate, from the perspective of fetal quality and pigment, this plate should come from the Kangxi period, although this plate is made of good materials used in palace porcelain, but the workmanship is very rough and hasty, not as calm and atmospheric as the normal Kangxi official kiln, which is definitely abnormal." But given the historical background of the time, this was perfectly normal. ”

"How?"

"Because during the Kangxi period, there was a 'Sanpan Rebellion', when the porcelain capital was just within the affected range, if the three forces wanted to make a batch of porcelain, they had to do it, but at that time, the porcelain capital did not completely fall into the hands of Sanpan, so the intention of the pattern on this large plate was a bit secretive, if you don't care, you can't see it......"

"That's right! As the old saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and with you young people, we old guys can retire with peace of mind. ”

Qian Xingye applauded Meng Zitao, at this moment he was convinced by Meng Zitao's profound knowledge, you know, it took him a whole week to deduce the origin of the market, and Meng Zitao only took a maximum of ten minutes, thinking about the age of the two, can he not admire?

"You've won a prize. Meng Zitao waved his hand modestly.
