Chapter 447: The Old Man's Birthday
"Mr. Li, do you remember me?" Boss Ma was obviously stunned for a moment, and there was a trace of excitement on his face, Li Yang had only been here once, and at that time, Li Yang did not have such a high reputation, but he had just exposed the high-imitation Zigang Yu, and he had some influence in the circle of Gu Yu.
Because of his attention to ancient jade, this Boss Ma also paid special attention to Li Yang, what he didn't expect was that "Li Yang not only later had a great reputation in the jade industry, but also exploded his own world in the antique industry." In particular, Li Yang's longevity bowl was praised by the Chinese people after the exhibition, and was also crowned by the reporter as the first national treasure in China.
"Of course I remember, Brother Zheng often mentions you to me!"
Li Yang nodded slightly, Bai Ming and several people had already begun to pay attention to the jade and utensils in this store, and after a while, several people shook their heads.
They all know a little about the ancient jade, and there are not many of these ancient jades in front of them that can enter their eyes.
"Boss Zheng still mentions me often? Thank you, Mr. Li" You went back to see Boss Zheng, and I would like to express my gratitude for me! ”
Boss Ma was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he seemed even more excited, regardless of whether what Li Yang said was true or not, this feeling of being valued made him very happy.
"Teacher Cai, Teacher Mao, Teacher Bai, hello, is there anything you like" Today, all 50% off! ”
Boss Ma turned back and said to the three experts, several of them are experts who have long been famous, "But Li Yang came from behind, and in the circle, the three of them can't compare to Li Yang now in terms of influence alone."
"50% off?"
Bai Ming, Mao Lao and Mr. Cai all looked at each other, "The profit of the antique shop is big, but there is no big point, especially now, there are more and more people who understand" The business of the antique shop is becoming more and more difficult to do.
Five-fold discount, basically let the profits out, except for rent, labor and other necessary costs" This price Boss Ma can be said to make no money.
Ten minutes later, "a few people left from this ancient jade house" Bai Ming had an extra lion-shaped ornament in his hand, this ornament shop owner was originally going to sell it for five thousand, and in the end Bai Ming gave him three thousand yuan, "I didn't let him really sell it according to the five-fold discount."
This jade lion is a genuine product of the Qing Dynasty, but it is a bit incomplete, the market price is about 3,000 yuan, although the things in this store are not very good, but the boss is still doing business.
When they came out, Boss Ma personally sent Li Yang and them out, and waited for Li Yang and them to go away before Boss Ma walked back by himself.
"This horse boss is very good, at least he has no pretense for the things here!"
After walking away, Mao Lao sighed and said, there are not many people like Boss Ma these days, "there are not many really good things in his store", but this is also a very common phenomenon, "Generally, there is no strength in antique shops, and it is difficult to collect some good things."
Boss Ma's things are sold at real prices, which is already very rare, "if that store is not handed down from the ancestors" If there is a rent, it is estimated that Boss Ma will not be able to hold on for a long time, and it is difficult to do serious business now.
"Brother Jie?"
Li Yang suddenly shouted, "Surprised to see the front of the set."
Not far in front of them, a young man in his thirties was walking, followed by several people, who were looking around aimlessly.
"Li Yang, when did you come back?"
The person on the other side also showed surprise when he saw Li Yang, and walked quickly towards Li Yang, "I looked very happy when I came over."
This person is none other than "He Jie, the last time Li Yang saw him in the club, He Lao's own grandson." He Lao belongs to the top characters in the country in antiques, "but no one among He Lao's descendants inherits him, at least He Jie in front of him doesn't know much" Li Yang knows.
"I just arrived in Beijing yesterday, what are you doing here?"
"I'm fine, let's see if there's as good luck as you" can also pick up the leak! ”
He Jie shook his head and smiled, looked at a few people next to Li Yang, and finally nodded.
Mr. Cai, Mao Lao and He Jie all know each other, and they have seen them on TV, but they don't know He Jie, and He Jie doesn't plan to say hello to them.
"Why are you trying to pick up the slack? Come, I'll introduce you! ”
Li Yang laughed, introduced the people around him to He Jie one by one, and introduced He Jie's identity. Several people nodded and nodded at him after hearing that this was He Lao's own grandson, He Jie's identity was very special, but he was not a person in the circle, and they didn't care much about it.
"Try your luck, the old man is about to celebrate his birthday, I'm thinking about whether I can pick up the leak and make the old man happy!"
He Jie smiled and shook his head, Li Yang was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "The old man is about to pass his birthday" when? ”
Li Yang really didn't know the old man's birthday, Li Yang only knew that the old man was over seventy years old this year, and the other old men had never mentioned it to him.
"Don't you know? In more than three months, it will be the old man's seventy-third birthday, usually the old man does not advocate longevity, but seventy-three, eight and four are still sure to live, I just thought about whether I could find a suitable birthday gift! ”
He Jie glanced at Li Yang, and was very surprised that Li Yang didn't know the old man's birthday, "But I still explained."
"The old man didn't tell me, I'll call and ask right away!"
Li Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head, this will really be a bad feeling in his heart. He Lao helped him so much, and he completely regarded him as a real relative, but he didn't tell him about such a big thing as his birthday, and seventy-three was also an important birthday for the old man.
"Don't, don't ask now, it's miserable if you ask me, the old man must have his reason if he doesn't tell you now, but don't worry, the old man will definitely tell you, the last time his old man called my father, he said about it, you are 100% of the members!"
He Jie hurriedly grabbed Li Yang, and he said what He Lao didn't say in advance, so that He Lao knew that he would definitely be scolded again.
Li Yang listened to He Jie's explanation, and felt a lot better, "There are still more than three months to go", during this time, he was busy again, and it was normal for the old man not to tell him now.
"It's okay, but I also have to prepare for the congratulatory gift in advance!"
After thinking about it, Li Yang also nodded, since the old man had already told his family that he would attend the birthday banquet, he would definitely tell him that he really didn't need to be in such a hurry now.
"It's easy for you to prepare, but it's hard for me!"
Seeing that Li Yang was not insisting on calling, He Jie also relaxed, thinking of Li Yang's ability and thinking about himself, He Jie couldn't help but shake his head again.
Everyone knows that the old man likes antiques, as a descendant, it is most appropriate to give antiques as a birthday gift, but the old man is one of the top experts in the antique industry, and he will not look at ordinary things at all.
&nbā bought a good treasure at a high price, and the old man could only praise two sentences at most, and it was difficult to really make the old man happy.
He Jie is a smart person, he knows what the old man likes, if this birthday gift is the same as he picked up, it will be different, even if the value is not very high, as long as it is a treasure obtained by his luck and eyesight, he will definitely be very happy.
However, this luck is not so easy to touch, as for eyesight, it is even more difficult, He Jie knows very well how much water he has in his stomach.
This kind of thing can't be cheated, the old man's eyes are sharp, if he buys something at a high price, or deliberately pretends to pick up the things he bought and gives it to He Lao, not only will it not make the old man happy, but it will also cause a burst of scolding, then it will be more than worth the loss.
Therefore, He Jie can only go to the glass factory to try his luck if he has nothing to do, and he can meet the best, and if he can't meet it, he can only honestly find someone to take a good picture as a birthday gift.
All this is not difficult for Li Yang, He Jie is not a person in the circle, and he has also heard about Li Yang's repeated leaks, especially those national treasures and artifacts that Li Yang has obtained by picking up leaks, which makes him very red-eyed, and any one of them that he encounters and gives away as a birthday gift can make the old man laugh and be happy for a long time.
&nbāMoney to buy things is not a skill, it is a fight for financial resources. Just like the old man of Yuanqing huā liked it very much, huā bought it with money, but he did not publicize it to the public, "This is not a good thing received by eyesight."
Previous exchange meetings also have this meaning, financial resources are different for everyone, only financial resources are meaningless, but it is different than picking up leaks, and only by picking up leaks can you get real fun" This is the real thing to study the level of eyesight.
It is precisely because of this that He Lao is so proud of Li Yang, whether it is the immortal bowl or the immortal sound bottle and the Zhan Lu sword, they are all treasures that Li Yang has obtained by picking up leaks, and this kind of thing is the capital that real pride can take out to show off.
"Brother Jie, you don't have to worry, the old man has always said that I am lucky, or let's go around together, maybe we can meet something good!"
After understanding, Li Yang also persuaded He Jie, the preparation of the congratulatory gift must be sincere, even Li Yang can't help He Jie, otherwise after the old man knows, Li Yang may have to be unlucky.
"It's okay, the old man has said more than once that your luck is good, see if I can get some of your luck!"
He Jie thought for a moment and nodded, "He wanders aimlessly, it is better to follow Li Yang and see if he can really get caught with Li Yang's luck and encounter a big leak, no super arrow leak, just a good big leak."
Bai Ming, Mao Lao and Teacher Cai all glanced at each other, "Three people are one head, and they don't know He Lao's birthday."
Bai Ming didn't know at all, Mao Lao and Teacher Cai had heard a little, except for the sixtieth birthday, Old Man He didn't seem to have invited people in the industry to his birthday banquet again, so I don't know if this is still the case.
