Chapter 1059: Wielding a knife to remove rust
Ah Le said softly, "Mr. Cai, in this antique art business, the profit line is still too long. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis auction in New York, I know, is a series of special sessions. Moreover, most of the artworks have a turnover of only a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars, and the real heavy weapons are still few. ”
"Of course I'm not interested in profits."
After Cai Zhenyu finished speaking, he stood up, "Accompany me to the garden." ”
After taking two steps in the garden, Cai Zhenyu said, "Antiques and works of art are very special commodities, and their value is different from other commodities, and they are diversified. Did you hear what was said in the news just now? Show your strength and express your national pride. ”
"I understand Mr. Cai, my opinion is too one-sided."
Cai Zhenyu smiled slightly, "It's not that you are one-sided, it's that they didn't get to the point." It is indeed worth mentioning to show one's own strength and express national pride, but it is a one-sided matter for individuals. The real potential value of the antique art business is the connections, the extraordinary connections. Why was Tang Yi able to be the guest of honor for White and me? Moreover, in the mainland, he may have connections that we can't imagine. ”
Ah Le nodded again and again, "Yes, how can anyone afford to play with treasures?" Moreover, all walks of life are involved. ”
"Therefore, antiques and artworks are worth operating well, especially those that return from overseas, in addition to connections, in the official, you can also win a vote. It's a pity that there are a lot of requirements to operate this, and there is really a lack of such a person around me. Cai Zhenyu continued.
Ah Le's footsteps paused slightly, "Mr. Cai, this Tang Yi?" ”
"He's not going to help me." Cai Zhenyu looked at Ah Le, "Besides, I can't use him either." ”
"Why?"
"He won't help me, because his current state is already a hidden dragon and a deep dragon, and he sees the future clearly, how can he stoop to be my saddle before and after? I can't use him because I always feel a strange aura on him, and I can't control this kind of aura. ”
Cai Zhenyu's eyes narrowed slightly, "Therefore, this kind of person can only make friends, but he can't become a family." ”
Saying that, Cai Zhenyu gently patted Ah Le's shoulder, "Ah Le, all along, I have not regarded you as my subordinate, but as my family, you are like my son." ”
"Mr. Cai!" Ah Le's voice trembled slightly, and there seemed to be wetness in his eyes.
Cai Zhenyu nodded, put his hands behind his back, and walked forward again, saying as he walked: "If Tang Yi contacts you, tell him that I can meet that old Mr. Chen at any time today!" ”
Just half an hour later, Ah Le received a call from Tang Yi.
In the study room where Zhenyu Mansion received Tang Yi, Cai Zhenyu saw Chen Chengzhi and Tang Yi again.
"Mr. Chen is very grateful for taking the time to help!"
"Mr. Cai doesn't have to be polite, Tang Yi is on Hong Kong Island, thanks to Mr. Cai's care." Chen Chengzhi waved his hand, "Mr. Cai, don't talk much, can you move things out?" There is no sunlight in the room, and I am afraid that I can't see it really. ”
Soon, Ah Le moved Fang Ding to the outside room with white gloves.
Chen Chengzhi immediately stepped forward to observe. Tang Yi, Cai Zhenyu, and A Le naturally took a step back and vacated a small circle.
Chen Chengzhi nodded slightly, "These few places of powder rust, fortunately, did not hurt the copper." ”
Soon, Chen Chengzhi seemed to be caught in this.
After taking a closer look, he opened the toolbox he had brought with him, and took out a pair of gray gloves as thin as cicada's wings, something like a hair dryer, and a sharp knife. The knife is no more than twenty centimeters long, the handle is wrapped with cotton thread, the head is beveled, the blade is very narrow, the light flashes, and it is impossible to see what kind of metal it is for a while.
The three of them watched silently, but did not speak.
Chen Chengzhi turned on something similar to a hair dryer, and the sound sounded, it turned out that this was not "blowing", but "sucking", similar to a miniature vacuum cleaner.
With a vacuum cleaner in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, Chen Chengzhi's hands moved in front of Fang Ding, and the dust fell off and flew, but it was quickly sucked in by the vacuum cleaner.
The hand holding the knife is sometimes fast and slow, fast and flint, slow and like drawing eyebrows and wiping lips, but no matter how fast or slow, the posture is extremely beautiful. The left hand holding the vacuum cleaner works seamlessly, as if not a single trace of the dust that has fallen has been sucked in.
In less than ten minutes, Chen Chengzhi stopped moving. Then he put down his tools.
Cai Zhenyu fixed his eyes and looked at it, where is there still half a shadow of pink rust on this square ding? And he couldn't see the slightest damage to the ornaments and other rust colors, so he couldn't help but say, "Mr. Chen is simply a masterpiece!" ”
Chen Chengzhi smiled, "This is only the first step, and it is also the easiest step, just like treating a wound, you must first remove the carrion. The rest is the key to the real treatment! ”
When Tang Yi heard this, he secretly thought that Chen Chengzhi was the first to show his hand, so that Cai Zhenyu could rest assured that he would hand it over to him. And the next steps, I'm afraid I won't let him see it, so he said: "Mr. Cai, the means of reaching heaven in this industry are all secrets that cannot be passed on, and the next ・・・・・・"
Cai Zhenyu nodded immediately, "We should avoid it." This room is reserved for Mr. Chen's exclusive use, and it can be used for as long as you want! ”
"Don't bother, step two, give me half an hour. Step 3, just do what I said, put it back in the inner room, don't see the light, and after three days, it's done! Chen Chengzhi nodded, "Tang Yi has to stay and help me." ”
"Okay, let's go out first, don't disturb the two of you!" Cai Zhenyu said goodbye and walked out directly. Ah Le followed, closing the door from the outside.
Cai Zhenyu sat down on the sofa, "Ah Le, this area, don't let anyone in!" ”
After seeing the two of them leave, Chen Chengzhi said with a smile, "Actually, the next step is to apply the potion, they don't know the formula of the potion, and it's nothing to read, it's just that I'm not used to outsiders." ”
Tang Yi was also happy, "Old man, I opened my eyes again today!" ”
Chen Chengzhi took out the potion, carefully applied it to the place where the rust was removed with a small brush, and praised as he applied, "Such a large Fang Ding in the early Shang Dynasty is indeed rare!" And this green rust and crystalline rust are also beautiful! This Mr. Cai, it's not easy to get such a heavy weapon! ”
"If it was an ordinary thing, you wouldn't have come!"
"Underestimate yourself, don't you? If you have to let me come, I won't be able to excuse myself! Chen Chengzhi laughed.
About ten minutes after applying the potion, Chen Chengzhi took out a small watering can from the toolbox, then opened a bottle, poured the liquid inside into the watering can, and then began to spray at Fang Ding.
After spraying the whole thing, Chen Chengzhi put away his tools.
"Old man, why do you have to spray it all over? What kind of potion is this? Tang Yi couldn't help but ask.
