Seeing that He Chong was really anxious, and that people were doing it for him, Li Yi couldn't help scratching his scalp,

"Brother He, I'm really not spending money indiscriminately, because in addition to the two teachers of Zhong Hu, I also worship a master, and he is a ...... who engages in carving."

He Chong pursed his lips, not believing his explanation at all,

"According to what you say, when I recognized Hetian Yu in elementary school, I also worshipped a bunch of masters!"

Hearing this, Li Yi shook his head with a smile, and was about to explain, when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw a young man about twenty-four or five years old with glasses walking over quickly.

"Man, where's your pen holder with bangs and toads?"

The guy had just taken the box and foam, and was about to help Li Yi put the pen holder up, when he heard the words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then pointed to the pen holder on the counter and said:

"Bangs playing toad? You're talking about this piece? ”

The young man hurriedly bent down to take a look, then turned and excitedly said to an old man about fifty years old, with thin cheeks and a calm bearing, who had just walked over:

"Old Zhu, this is what I said!"

"This one?"

Zhu Lao first smiled and nodded at Li Yi and the others, then bent down and stared at the pen holder on the counter twice, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"This pen holder ......"

Zhu Lao picked up the pen holder while groaning, and the guy was about to stop it, but he found that even Li Yi, the master, didn't make any moves, so he took his hand back.

"How do you sell this pen holder?"

"Sir, this pen holder has been sold to this gentleman, if you like it, you might as well take a look at the others, this one, and this one are also good."

"Already sold?"

Zhu Lao's face showed a mixture of disappointment, regret, and resentment, but in a blink of an eye, he calmed down again, he looked at the pen holder carefully, turned his head and said to Li Yi:

"Little brother, can you take a step to speak?"

Seeing the old man's reaction, He Chong knew that Li Yi was afraid that he had picked up the treasure again, so he gently poked him and made a look, it doesn't matter if he wants to give it to him or not, it's always okay to listen to the offer, right?

Li Yi thought about it, Feng Xilu probably knew the price, this Zhu Ying's, he really had to inquire.

Seeing Li Yi nodding, Zhu Lao hurriedly asked the guy to help wrap the pen holder, and at this time, the guy also saw that they were afraid that this pen holder would be sold at a loss, so they didn't want to wrap it.

"Everyone, please wait a minute, shall I call the boss over?"

"What are you shouting, the cashier is still here!"

He Chong snatched the box containing foam from his hand, picked up the pen holder with one hand,

"Let's find a quiet place!"

A few people walked out of the shop, and the young man led them to a teahouse not far in front of them, opened a small private room, and the four of them sat down, and he began to introduce,

"My name is Wu Jingtao, I work in a foreign-funded company in Chang'an, I usually like to play a collection or something, this is Zhu Tong Zhu Lao, it is ......"

"I'm a bamboo carver, and I'm usually in Jiading. A few days ago, Xiao Wu sent me two photos of this pen holder, I looked at it and thought it was good, just came to do something today, so he asked him to take me to see, I didn't expect it to be late! What do you call them? ”

Zhu Tong didn't tell the truth. In fact, Wu Jingtao sent the photo to one of his apprentices, but his apprentice didn't take it seriously at all, but when he talked about Zhu Ying this morning, he took out those photos as a joke and passed them on to everyone, and when he looked at it, he found a few suspicious places, so he immediately bought a ticket and rushed over, but he didn't expect it to be late.

Li Yi smiled and said:

"Hello Mr. Zhu, my name is Li Yi, his name is He Chong, I happened to have nothing to do today and wanted to visit the market, and I saw that this pen holder was good, so I spent money to buy it."

"Oh, little brother, how much did it cost you when you bought this tube?"

"It's about 120,000."

"So, now I'll give 200,000, okay to give it to me?"

Li Yi shook his head, what are you kidding, he won't sell it if it quadruples 2 million, let alone 200,000! However, for Zhu Lao, he was not as disgusted as Mu Yuyu, the reason was very simple, Mu Yuyu was also in a group with him, and this old man was a stranger.

"That'...... How much does it cost for the little brother to make a move? ”

"I don't know very well, but if Feng Xilu's works can be sold for more than 2 million, I think there should be no problem with Zhu Ying's works being doubled or doubled."

He Chong gasped, wouldn't it be nearly 10 million to quadruple from more than 2 million? However, nearly 10 million, just such a pen holder? He felt that Li Yi was a little too exaggerated.

Wu Jingtao's reaction was similar to him, he didn't believe that a bamboo carved pen holder could be sold for nearly 10 million, but before he could stab Li Yi a few words, he heard Zhu Tong say:

"It turns out that the little brother is also a master, in this case, then I won't go around in circles, how about I pay 8 million for this pen holder?"

As soon as this price was said, He Chong and Wu Jingtao stayed in the local area as if they had been ordered by someone. And then, Li Yi's answer made them feel that this world seemed to be a little different from the world they usually lived in, it was really crazy!

"Old Zhu, it's not a matter of money or not, but I don't plan to sell this pen holder at all!"

"Little brother, don't be in a hurry to refuse, in this way, I will add another 2 million and make up a whole number for you, 10 million! Well, I don't think even if I get it to Sotheby's for auction, I shouldn't be able to auction it at this price. ”

Li Yi smiled bitterly,

"Zhu Lao, you misunderstood, I really don't think the price is low, but because Zhu Ying's works are indeed too few, and it just so happens that I am learning carving myself, so I want to collect it myself. In this way, Elder Zhu, if I want to make a move one day, I will be the first to inform you! ”

Seeing that Li Yi still refused to sell at this price, Zhu Tong knew that he was afraid that it would be no show, but when he heard Li Yi say that he also learned carving, he couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope, and hurriedly asked:

"You also learned bamboo carving? Who is Master? ”

"I didn't learn bamboo carving, my master is Mr. Hu Zhiyuan."

"Huh?"

Zhu Tong was stunned, and then his face showed a touch of joy, originally he asked Master Li Yi what he meant, just to try to see if the apprentice could not get through here, then go Master, but he didn't expect that his master would be Hu Zhiyuan, now, things should be a lot simpler.

"It turns out that the little brother is a disciple of Hu Zhiyuan, so it's no wonder."

Zhu Tong organized the language, and he was ready to make things clear thoroughly.

"Here's the thing, this year happens to be the 450th anniversary of the establishment of our Jiading faction, and your pen holder is a masterpiece of Zhu Ying, the second ancestor of our Jiading faction. So, if the little brother is really unwilling to sell, I don't know if he can lend us a few days, I want to let everyone see the handwriting of the ancestors at the anniversary party. ”

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and then showed a crying and laughing expression, this thing is so precious, you a stranger actually said to borrow it, what should you let me say?

"Oh, sorry, I didn't make it clear. That's right, little brother, the date of the celebration of the 450th anniversary of the birth of our Jiading faction is the 8th day of the 10th month of the lunar calendar, that is, the 12th day of November in the solar calendar, I will send you an invitation letter back, you will bring a pen holder to the past, and then I will prepare a deposit of 10 million and a loan agreement, we will pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, what do you think? ”

Seeing that Li Yi was still a little reluctant, Zhu Tong smiled bitterly and took out his mobile phone,

"This time, we are also going to invite your master Hu Zhiyuan to participate, but Brother Hu has rarely attended this kind of event, so I plan to personally send an invitation letter to the door after a while. But since I met you, then I'll call him now, and try to let you master and apprentice go together when the time comes! ”

Li Yi couldn't help scratching his scalp when he heard that he not only knew Hu Zhiyuan, but also seemed to have a very good relationship, looking at this old gentleman's style, he should also be a very famous bamboo carver, but after he got the string of beads cooperated by Pu Zhongqian and Zhu Zhizheng, he also knew about today's famous bamboo carvers, and it seems that there is no name for this one?

After hesitating, the phone had been connected, and Zhu Tong said a few words to the person on the other side of the phone, and then handed the phone to Li Yi. Li Yi took it and only said one sentence, and it was determined that on the other end of the phone, it was indeed his master Hu Zhiyuan!

"Li Yi, your pen holder...... What else do you plan to collect besides collecting? ”

Li Yi scratched his scalp, he didn't have any other plans, he just felt that things were rare, and he didn't lack that money.

"That's right...... Do you think this will work? You lend them the pen holder first, and then I will go with you during the celebration, you look at their Jiading collection, if there is anything you can see, exchange it with them, after all, this thing is a relatively rare collection for you, and for them, the significance is much greater, I owe the old man of the Zhu family a favor back then, and I have never had a chance to pay it back, and now I ......"

Li Yi blinked, glanced at Zhu Tong, stepped aside, and asked quietly:

"Master, since you keep saying that, it's nothing to give them the pen holder. It's just that...... Hehe, can you tell me what good things they have in their collections? ”

"You kid!"

Hu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said:

"They have the works of Zhu He and Zhu Zhizheng, but you don't have to think about this, but Sanfeng, Wu Zhifan, Zhou Zhiyan and others should be exchanged, and the big deal is to let them make up some money when the time comes, rest assured, their Jiading faction is very rich!"

Hearing what the master said, Li Yi smiled slightly, asking for money? He's not that stupid! There are so many famous artists in the past dynasties of the Jiading School, I heard that the master means that their works are all in the Jiading School, and there will be no more need for it at that time, as long as the works of the people just mentioned are the same, as for whether this pen holder can be worth so much, this does not need to be considered at all, it is a big deal, he will make up the money for them!

"Master, do you think I'll lend it to him now or wait until I'm at the festival?"

"If you can, you can give it to him now, otherwise I'm afraid that their old man will kill me tomorrow, and I won't be able to do anything!"

"Master, who is the old man of their family?"

"Their old man is the 20th grandson of Zhu He, the contemporary bamboo carving master Zhu Xuanyuan! When I was learning carving, I spent a year in the Jiading School, and the old man once personally instructed me. Zhu Tong is his third son, although he also learned bamboo carving, but the talent is average, now, he should be the secretary general of the Jiading Bamboo Carving Association. ”

Li Yi nodded, since he figured it out, he just lent him the pen holder, as for the deposit or something, isn't it only 10 million? No!

returned the phone to Zhu Tong, and then in the old man's expectant eyes, Li Yi pushed the pen holder forward,

"Take it, I'll lend it to you now!"

"Lend it to me now? Wait, I'll call home right now and ask them to send you a deposit of 10 million! ”

Zhu Tong was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect Hu Zhiyuan to be so good! He is ready to quickly settle the matter here, and then immediately rush to Yangnan to get Hu Zhiyuan, maybe, this tube can really stay in the Jiading faction! The works of several of their ancestors are about to be put together!

"No, old man, just give me an IOU, my master also said just now, when you celebrate, he will also go, and you can return it to me when the time comes."

"I'm afraid that's not right, right?"

"It's okay, aren't you old and I'm still worried?"

Zhu Tong said a few more polite words, and then asked the boss to borrow a piece of white paper, and wrote the IOU after a few brushes, and made sure that Li Yi did have something to do at night, and after not being able to eat together, he carefully held the carton containing the pen holder in his arms, and several people walked out of the private room with a smile.

"Stay, several!"

As soon as they walked out of the private room, a middle-aged man blocked their way, and Li Yi couldn't help frowning when he saw that it was the owner of the shop just now.

"Everyone, please don't get me wrong, that's the case, I recognize this thing, I just want to ask you to do me a favor, help me identify a bamboo root carved Magu Shangshou ornament, the person is in my store, I can't delay you much time, how about it, do me a favor?"

Zhu Tong hesitated, now he is like an arrow, and he doesn't want to delay for a moment, but ......

"It's okay, Old Zhu, if you have something to do, let's go first, I'll just go over and take a look."

"Okay, Xiao Li, thank you so much for this matter, you came a few days early during the celebration, and we will have a good gathering when the time comes."

A group of five people went out of the teahouse, Zhu Tong took Wu Jingtao straight to the airport, and Li Yi followed the boss back to the store.

"Pony, where's the thing? Take it out and I'll take a look at it again. ”

As soon as the boss returned to the store, he walked to the negotiation area, where a young man in his twenties was sitting, with a black backpack on the ground at his feet.

Seeing the boss return, Pony stands up and says hello, then takes a small boat carved from bamboo roots from his backpack and places it on the table.

This small boat, about 30 centimeters in length, two heads upturned, two middle-aged women sitting on the boat, one rowing, one holding a jar of old wine in his arms, on the inner side of the boat, is engraved "Wu Zhifan system" four-character line book knowledge!
