Chapter 243: Picking Up Leaks

Xu Tao knew that Song Xiaoyun loved to eat fish, but it was the first time he saw her gluttonous appearance, and he thought that the dishes in Pingjiang Building should be done well.

Song Xiaoyun didn't look at the menu, and asked the waiter to order directly, obviously very familiar with the dishes here.

After ordering, Song Xiaoyun called his grandfather and told him that he had returned to Tongcheng. Now I'm having dinner with my classmates and going home late.

Putting down the phone, Song Xiaoyun explained that the reason why she was familiar with the dishes in Pingjiang Lou was because she had often come here with her grandfather since she was a child.

Song Xiaoyun said that her parents went abroad when she was very young, and she was brought up by her grandfather, and she had a good relationship with her grandfather.

His grandfather liked to play and often came to Pingjiang Road. Pingjiang Road used to have not so many shops, only two or three time-honored shops selling antiques. However, on weekends, there will be a lot of stalls here, forming a night market selling all kinds of old gadgets. His grandfather likes to come here, and Song Xiaoyun often comes along.

Because these stalls are only available at night, Song Xiaoyun's grandfather usually takes her to Pingjiang Tower for dinner first, and when the meal is over, the night market has been set up, Song Xiaoyun followed her grandfather along Pingjiang Road to see the things on those stalls.

So this Pingjiang Building was often visited when she was a child, so she was naturally familiar.

Song Xiaoyun hadn't mentioned these things to Xu Tao before, but today she may have come to this Pingjiang Building to remind her of these. Xu Tao listened to this story, and there seemed to be an old man and a young man visiting a stall in front of him, and the picture made people feel warm.

Of course, Xu Tao knows that this is the influence of aura, in fact, when a person does different things and has different moods, the aura will also change. Unconsciously, it may affect others, so the mood is also contagious, and this is the truth.

The incident that Song Xiaoyun said is also a memory worth cherishing in her heart. Because I am immersed in it when I speak, it affects the aura around me and becomes very warm.

Of course, this kind of subtle change can only be felt by an immortal like Xu Tao who enters the Tao with qi, and ordinary people will not know the reason even if they are affected by it.

Li Jian listened and said, "Song Xiaoyun, your grandfather must be very knowledgeable, right?" ”

"Of course!" Jiang Lili said: "Song Xiaoyun's grandfather is a cultural celebrity in our city!" ”

Jiang Lili and Song Xiaoyun are close friends in the same dormitory, they have been classmates for three years, and their homes are in the same city, so naturally they have been to Song Xiaoyun's house and know the situation at her home.

"Cultural celebrities? Surnamed Song? Li Jian lowered his head in contemplation as he spoke, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Ah, your grandfather won't be Song Zijiang, Song Lao, right?" ”

Before Song Xiaoyun could answer, Jiang Lili tilted her head and said, "Li Jian, I didn't expect you to have a little knowledge, you actually know Grandpa Song's name!" ”

Li Jian said: "It's really Song Lao, Song Lao's name, who doesn't know?" ”

Xu Tao wanted to ask if Song Xiaoyun's grandfather was very famous, but Li Jian's words made him a little embarrassed, Song Xiaoyun's grandfather's name, Xu Daxian really didn't know. However, when Li Jian said this, it seemed that he was very ignorant if he didn't know, and it was inconvenient for Xu Tao to ask.

In fact, Li Jian's words are a bit excessive, although Song Zijiang is knowledgeable, his actions are not publicized. It has the implicit and introverted surname of traditional Chinese literati. That is to say, he is more famous in Tongcheng, and when he goes out of Tongcheng, except for the professional academic community, no one knows who he Song Zijiang is.

Even in Tongcheng, it is not necessarily known to passers-by. The reason why Li Jian knew Song Zijiang's name was because he listened to his father.

Li Jian's father, Li Zhan, also likes to collect, but he has limited financial resources and ordinary eyesight, so he just likes it. Although I often want to be able to pick up a leak, I usually pay tuition fees. Fortunately, he can still control himself, and he is self-aware, and he usually doesn't spend much money, even if he is cheated, the loss is not heavy.

Li Zhan knew that his eyesight was not good, so he was particularly envious of those experts who had eyesight. Song Zijiang used to be the deputy director of the Tongcheng Museum of Culture and History, a master of calligraphy and painting, and a special consultant of the Provincial Museum. In the circle of Tongcheng to play collections, there are really not many people who don't know Song Zijiang.

Li Jian had heard his father say this name more than once, and of course he knew Song Zijiang's name.

However, Xu Tao is neither from Tongcheng, nor does he play collection, so it is normal not to know Song Zijiang's name.

At this time, the dishes were delivered, and everyone chatted while eating.

Li Jian said: "My classmates have been for three years, and I don't know that you are the granddaughter of Song Lao, Song Xiaoyun, my father also likes to collect, and I admire your grandfather." Can you ask my dad to visit your grandfather? ”

"It's okay to visit, as long as my grandfather is free!" Song Xiaoyun said: "But if you want my grandfather to see something, I'm afraid it won't work, my grandfather's eyes are not good now, and it is easy not to identify others." ”

"Just pay a visit!"

Li Jian was already satisfied with Song Xiaoyun's affirmative reply, and his father would definitely be happy if he knew that he would have the opportunity to visit Song Lao! Even if it can't help Changyan, it's worth bragging about in front of his friends. You can do some credit for this when you go back.

It has been dark outside the window, and there are many lanterns lit up on the old street, and looking down from the hotel, it has some antique taste.

The chef of Pingjianglou is really good, it is also Jiangtuan fish, and it is more delicious than what Xu Tao ate in Nanling Hot Spring Resort last time.

Jiang Lili was so addicted to eating, full of food and drink, and teased Xu Tao again: "Xu Tao, you sent Xiaoyun home tonight, but you went to see your parents, did you bring a meeting gift?" ”

Song Xiaoyun's face turned slightly red when she heard this, but she also looked at Xu Tao with a smile. In Song Xiaoyun's impression, although Xu Tao always seems empty-handed, he can always conjure up strange things at any time. Song Xiaoyun knew that the ring on Xu Tao's hand had a secret.

"Well, this one!"

Xu Tao was asked by Jiang Lili, but he also felt that it was really necessary to prepare a gift. said that in this life, I would have learned from the world, but if it wasn't for Jiang Lili's reminder, I would have forgotten this etiquette. Xu Daxian felt that he was a little defeated, and after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing suitable to use as a gift.

Since Song Xiaoyun's grandfather likes to collect literary toys, it would be suitable if there was a good jade, but unfortunately there is no suitable jade in his hand now, if he waits for a while to gamble on the stone and come back, most of the time will be able to find a good jade, but time waits for no one, and he can't see the old man and say that the gift will be made up later, right?

Although there are a lot of things in my ring, most of them are some common supplies, which are more valuable, except for the car is a few boxes of foreign wine.

It makes sense to send a sports car to Song Xiaoyun, but it is obviously not appropriate to give it to her grandfather. As for wine, although Xu Tao now knows that the wine in his ring is not cheap, but, in his opinion, it is still Chinese liquor for appetite, subconsciously, he does not like this wine, since the old man likes Chinese culture, he should not like foreign wine.

Xu Tao thought about it, glanced at the slippery red lantern outside the window, and suddenly had an idea: "Doesn't your grandfather like to play with literature, let's go to the old street for a while, and buy something for his old man!" ”

Li Jian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, and glanced at Xu Tao: "I said Xu Tao, do you know antiques?" There may not be one genuine thing out of a hundred things sold on the street. If you buy a fake, it doesn't matter if you give it to someone like my father, but if the gift you gave to Song Lao is a fake, isn't it ridiculous and generous? ”

"Let's see, you may not be able to buy a fake!" Xu Tao smiled and didn't explain much. Although he doesn't understand antiques, old things have the breath of old things, and no matter how fake this is, it can't fool him. Without the precipitation of the years, no matter how clever the fraud is, it may be able to deceive his glasses, but it must not be able to deceive his divine sense. Although you may not be able to find any fine products, you will certainly not be deceived by fakes.

"That's right," Li Jian suddenly remembered something, patted his head and said, "Song Xiaoyun, you have followed your grandfather to this antique market since you were a child, your eyesight shouldn't be bad, right?" Those fakes shouldn't fool you! ”

Li Jian suddenly became happy as he spoke: "Let's go shopping together after eating, Song Xiaoyun, you will help me palm my eyes for a while, and I will also go back to find a good thing, so that my father will be greedy." If only I could pick up a leak, I could shake my majesty in front of my father! ”

Song Xiaoyun said disapprerovingly: "How can it be so easy to pick up leaks? Everyone wants to pick up the leak, but you have to know that what you buy is not the essence of the sale, and those who sell antiques also know that you want to pick up the leak. Nowadays, there are various methods of fraud, even if the expert is not careful, he will be blind, and the more he wants to pick up the leak, the easier it is to be deceived. ”

Li Jian nodded when he heard this: "Song Xiaoyun's words make sense, ** will make people lose their sober minds and affect people's judgment, usually when they think that when they pick up leaks, they are deceived and deceived!" ”

Li Jian's words were indeed motivated by feelings, and every time his son Li Zhan proudly claimed that he had picked up a big leak, Li Jian knew that he had been deceived again. This has happened many times, and Li Jian has already summed up the rules.

Jiang Lili didn't know that Li Jian had a personal experience, so she glanced at him and said, "Li Jian, I can't see it, you are quite philosophical!" ”

After receiving his lover's compliment, Li Jian suddenly became happy, and it seemed that his bones were a few taels lighter: "That's, who are we!" ”

Jiang Lili said disdainfully: "Cut, you can pretend!" ”

Xu Tao smiled and played a round game: "Okay, we've almost eaten, let's go to the market." Li Jian, you pay, this meal is yours, and my brother will help you pick up a leak in a while, and promise to let you earn back the money for this meal! ”

Xu Tao didn't wait for Li Jian as he spoke, took Song Xiaoyun's hand and walked out.

As soon as I walked to the staircase, a few people came up, and Xu Tao passed by, one of the young women, walked a few steps, suddenly "Huh", turned around, and seemed to want to say hello.

Looking at the past from this angle, only Xu Tao's back could be seen, the woman hesitated, and Xu Tao had already pulled Song Xiaoyun's men downstairs.

The woman shook her head and quickened her pace to catch up with her companion.
