Chapter 1107: Antique Exchange Meeting

Chapter 1107 Antique Exchange Meeting

……

"Elder Hong!"

"Well, come, sit down!" the old man patted the seat on his right!

"Is this appropriate?" Liu Dong hesitated.

"There's nothing inappropriate, this is Lao Qi's seat, he won't come today, let you kid sit! Hurry up, don't mother-in-law! Oh, by the way, what's the name of the kid next to you?"

"Oh, his name is Chen Bao, and he is my cousin!" Liu Dong hurriedly said.

"Cousin?"

"Hello, old man! I'm Chen Bao!" obediently stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Well, that's good! it looks much more alive than this kid!" After looking Chen Bao up and down, Hong Lao smiled.

Hearing this, Liu Dong could only smile bitterly.

The more you know, the more you carry. Let him be presumptuous in front of Hong Lao, he will not dare. Therefore, it is not as ignorant and fearless as Chen Bao, but he can be more open to treating the person in front of him as an ordinary old man!

"Thank you for your compliment!" Chen Bao hurriedly said.

"Well, go sit behind your brother!"

Listening to Elder Hong's instructions, Liu Dong sat on the old man's right hand, while Chen Bao sat in the second row of seats behind Liu Dong.

"Listen to Lao Qi, are you going to open your own museum?" Liu Dong had just finished when he heard Hong Lao ask.

"Hmm!"

Liu Dong nodded.

The news that he plans to open a museum is not a secret, and with Hong Lao's status in the antique circle in the capital, he doesn't need to inquire much to be able to know.

However, after Liu Dong admitted it, Hong Lao frowned slightly.

In his opinion, such a young Liu Dong has only just stepped into the collecting circle for only two years. Although thin has a reputation. But it's a bit of a venture to open your own museum now!

"What is the situation? Tell me! If it's good, the old man doesn't have much on hand, but he can still support you!"

"You're always welcome! Now that my museum is almost ready, and invitations are being distributed, it will be ready to open in a week!" Liu Dong said seriously.

"In a week's time, it looks like you're pretty much ready...... By the way, what's the name of the museum?"

"The name is 'China Yuanming Museum'?" Liu Dong hurriedly said.

"Shout, national brand, it seems that Li Renfang's kid has helped you a lot, right?"

Liu Dong was not surprised that Hong Changshan knew about his relationship with Li Lao. Immediately, he hurriedly said: "It's all Li Lao's love!"

Originally, Liu Dong didn't want any national brand, after all, this Old Summer Museum is just a transition, and it will not be too late to apply after the restoration of the Old Summer Palace is completed. However, Mr. Li did it in one step, and applied for the name without discussing it with Liu Dong.

However, this kind of thing that is good for himself, Liu Dong will naturally not live up to Li Lao's kindness.

"Since you shouted your name so loudly, I think there should be a lot of good things in your museum, right?" nodded and after a little thought, Hong Lao asked.

"It's still thanks to Elder Li's support, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to fill the current Yuanming Museum on my own!" Liu Dongqing said sincerely.

"Three generations of the old Li family treasure. There are a lot of good things! With his support, your museum will still be very attractive!" Hong Lao nodded. "By the way, when is your museum opening?"

"A week later, at 9 o'clock in the morning on October 1st!" Liu Dong hurriedly said.

"Nine o'clock in the morning on October 1st? Okay, I remember, remember to send me an invitation when the time comes!"

"Don't worry!" Liu Dong hurriedly said happily.

Like Hong Lao, a Taishan Beidou-level figure in the industry, Liu Dong is still afraid that he won't be able to invite it, and now that people send it to the door by themselves, Liu Dong has no reason to push it out.

Generally speaking, the more people like Mr. Hong come, the better it will be to expand the museum's influence in the industry.

"Huh!" Just as Hong Lao was about to say something more, his gaze suddenly stopped at the door.

Liu Dong, who noticed the strangeness, followed the old man's gaze, but saw an old man with gray hair, about sixty years old, with a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, thin and slightly short, walking over.

The old man is just that, the slightly flattering smile on the face of this middle-aged man, as well as the pride and contempt hidden in his eyes, make Liu Dong feel disgusted when he sees it!

"Lao Xia, you're late this time!"

There were people who saw the old man next to him, and many of them took the initiative to say hello.

"Hehe, you guys do it first, and we'll talk later!"

After appeasing the people who greeted him one by one, the old man walked straight to Liu Dong with the middle-aged people beside him.

However, Liu Dong knew that the purpose of the people was not him, but Hong Lao beside him.

"President, I'm a little late this time!" Xia Guofei said apologetically after walking in front of Hong Changshan and standing still.

"Well, just pay attention next time. Who's next to you?"

"Oh, President, let me introduce you! This is Mr. Uda from Japan!"

"Hello, Chairman Hong, my name is Tago Uda, and I'm from Japan!"

Although this Uda Taka speaks Mandarin very slippery, and his waist is bent close to 90 degrees, he can be called extremely respectful. But the feud between the two countries still makes it difficult for people like Hong Lao, who have come from the war years, to have a good feeling.

When he was young, it was not uncommon for the Japanese to commit crimes in China! Although more than half a century has passed now, the tragic scene of those years is still deeply rooted in the heart of Hong Lao.

But in the end, he is old, and he doesn't want young people to be so impulsive.

"Well, hello! Welcome Mr. Uda to China, but this is the meeting place of our Beijing Collection Association, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to participate, so please also ask Mr. Uda to go to the reception room first, and there will naturally be someone to receive him at that time!" Hong Lao said indifferently.

"Chairman Hong is polite! But this time I came here just to participate in the exchange meeting held by your association, and I hope you can allow it!" Although Uda Tagang's tone was as polite as ever, he was so annoying to stop in the ears of everyone around him.

Hong Lao naturally felt the same way, and after Yu Tian Duogang's voice fell, a pair of frost eyebrows immediately stood upside down. The look of not being angry and self-righteous came out of nowhere.

"President......!"

At this moment, Xia Guofei, who had been standing next to him, hurriedly stopped him with an anxious expression, and then took a step forward, walked to Hong Lao's ear and whispered a few words.

Hong Laoyi frowned and said bluntly: "What you said is true?"

"There is no lie, otherwise I wouldn't have brought him!" Xia Guofei hurriedly said.

Hearing this, after thinking for a while, Hong Changshan nodded, "Since that's the case, then he will leave it to you to arrange!"

"Yes, President!"

After agreeing, Xia Guofei hurriedly pulled Yu Tian Duogang to the side, and found an empty seat and sat down.

glanced at Hong Lao's still somewhat unswerving expression, and then glanced at the seemingly humble Uda Duogang, as well as the black suitcase he was holding in his hand, Liu Dong's eyes showed a hint of playfulness.

After Xia Guofei, who came last, was done, Hong Changshan slapped the table.

Although the sound was not loud, the room that was originally a little noisy instantly became quiet, except for the delicate waitress who served tea and poured water next to her, there were no less than two hundred people present in the Beijing Collection Association, and almost everyone looked at Hong Lao!

The momentum of the response made Liu Dong, who was sitting next to him, feel a little emotional and envious in his heart!

This kind of prestige accumulated over the years is far beyond his reach.

"Okay, it's not too early now, everyone is in a hurry to wait! This exchange meeting starts now, who wants to be the first to come out and throw bricks and lead jade?" Hong Lao's words were concise and to the point, but Liu Dong, who was used to making long speeches at domestic meetings, was a little uncomfortable!

"I'd better do it!"

After a brief exchange of glances, Wen Shuren was the first to stand up.

"Okay, let's start with Lao Wen first!"

When Hong Lao's words fell, Wen Shuren beckoned, and then saw that sitting behind him, a middle-aged man in his thirties hurriedly walked to the solid wood square table in the center of the front hall with the package in his arms.

This middle-aged man who follows Wen Lao, Liu Dong is no stranger!

This person's name is Zhang Wei, Wen Lao's 'apprentice', since the age of six or seven with Wen Lao to learn jade carving, now has achieved remarkable results, and is also a special jade carver of rose jewelry.

Seeing that, after Zhang Wei walked to the edge of the square table, he took out the contents under the command of Elder Wen.

"Brother Dong, that bottle is so beautiful, what's the origin?"

Chen Bao, who was curious in his heart, asked while holding the back of Liu Dong's chair.

"That's called a garlic bottle!"

"Garlic bottles?"

Noticing the questioning look on Hong Lao's face after turning his head, Liu Dong hurriedly explained: "Forgive me, my cousin hasn't entered the industry yet, so he doesn't understand anything, and the main reason for bringing him here this time is to see the world!"

"It's okay, it's rare that young people are interested in collecting now!" Hong Lao waved his hand.

"Qing Dynasty Xianfeng official kiln pastel peony pattern garlic bottle, the old rule, only change jade. If anyone is interested in this official kiln porcelain, and has a good jade in their hands and wants to sell it, come forward and talk about it!"

After Wen Lao finished speaking, Liu Dong was not surprised, after all, Wen Lao likes to collect jade, and he has long known it.

However, Chen Bao looked very strange.

Especially after a middle-aged man surnamed Chen stood up, stepped forward to communicate with Wen Lao, and added 30,000 yuan with a piece of Qing Dynasty Hetian jade Panlong jade pendant to exchange for Wen Lao's Qing Dynasty Xianfeng official kiln garlic bottle, Chen Bao couldn't hold back his curiosity, and asked in Liu Dong's ear: "Brother Dong, what are they doing here?

Chen Bao's voice was not small, Liu Dong could hear it, and Hong Lao, who was in good spirits next to him and his hearing had not decreased much, asked instead, "You didn't explain it to him when you came?"

"No!" Liu Dong didn't make any excuses.

"Oh!" After nodding, Hong Lao also turned his head! While Liu Dong breathed a sigh of relief, he hurriedly explained to Chen Bao behind him, telling him what kind of exchange meeting in the antique circle was! )
