Chapter Eighty-Seven: Heading to Gusu
Master Chen put down the phone a little stunned, but his heart turned up a storm, although I don't know what the origin of Lu Dao's Lu imitation, but there is still a little bit of care in his heart, how can the things that can make his teacher shocked can be a small thing, you must know that Lu Dao's teacher is an authoritative figure in jade appreciation, more than his less than a palm.
"How's Master Chen?" Qin Qianlu looked at Master Chen, who was a little distracted, and couldn't help but be anxious, reached out and tugged at his clothes, and asked carefully.
"Ugh." Master Chen let out a long sigh before he came back to his senses and said to Qin Qianlu, "The teacher said that this matter must be kept strictly secret, at least it cannot be circulated in a short period of time, and there is also the possibility that valuable jade artifacts can be sent to his old man's house in the future, and his old man will personally see it." ”
"What does Elder Wu want to see in person?" Qin Qianlu was surprised and delighted when he heard it.
Ju Ya Zhai is the foundation of his fortune, from his father to now has been in business for more than 40 years, and the change of Eastern European drama in the early nineties allowed him to raise enough materials, and obtained unimaginable wealth and extensive contacts on the border, the big shopkeeper at that time was Wu Lao, but later he was old and had limited energy to recommend Master Chen to take charge. Qin Qianlu has a lot of respect for Wu Lao.
"That's what the teacher said, I guess there's something hidden in it that makes the teacher jealous, so I didn't say it." Master Chen said, with a hint of worry on his face.
"Okay, let's guess and guess and can't find a context, in the future, jade and other objects should be cautious, and some suspicious ones will not be accepted." Qin Qianlu nodded, with Wu Lao's promise, he was still relieved.
"Well, I'll pay attention to it in the future, it's just that what is the origin of these people who came today, and it would be good if the teacher was here." Master Chen nodded, Qin Qianlu should be cautious, otherwise Wu Lao would have so much time to deal with it.
"I guess it's a child of a family, but we can't offend them if we open the door to do business, listening to their accent, one should be a northerner, and the one called Song Lao should be from southern Fujian." Qin Qianlu said.
······
"Old Song, what's going on with this Lu Fang, it made you change your face and color, and it was so mysterious." Back at the hotel, Liu Sheng couldn't wait to ask.
"It's a long story, since your teacher hasn't explained it to you yet, I'll tell you about it first, anyway, you will know the Tao sooner or later." Song Lao said faintly.
After a short period of coldness, Song Lao organized his language, and the faint tone sounded again.
It turns out that Lu Fang came from the hands of a person named Lu Baitao, speaking of which he also has some relationship with the famous jade carving master Lu Zigang in the late Ming Dynasty, it is said that he is his collateral descendant, born in Lu Zigang's hometown of Songtai County, Liangsu Province, since he was a child, some jade carving talent was sent to Jiangdu, this modern famous jade carving center.
It also happens that although Lu Baitao's master is not very famous in the Jiangdu realm, his family background is famous, according to legend, it was handed down by an unborn disciple of Lu Zigang, but Lu Zigang's name was famous at that time, and there was no record of disciple inheritance, and there was no way to verify the rumors in the market.
At the beginning, Lu Baitao did not show particularly outstanding talent among the many brothers and sisters, and his thinking and aura were slightly inferior, but he was only slightly ahead of the carving, but he was down-to-earth and hardworking, and was quite appreciated by the master.
I don't know what kind of shit luck he has taken, his little sister, that is, his master's only daughter, fell in love with him, the two are of the same age, they walked together, the master is also more satisfied with him, he is honest and respectful, and he is ready to pass on all his skills to him, and inherit the jade shop in the future.
As the saying goes, there are no thousand days of flowers, originally his master was going to inspect and inspect his character, and there was no problem even passing the two levels, in the last level, the master took out the Kun Gong knife left by Lu Zigang, but what he didn't expect was that he was greedy, knocked the master unconscious, and took the Kun Gong knife and went to the rivers and lakes since then.
A few years later, suddenly a lot of beautiful jade from Suzhou and Hangzhou was circulated, all dynasties and dynasties had them, and they were exquisitely made, especially Lu Zigang's jade plate, which made some collectors love it, but it was soon discovered by Lu Baitao's master, and this matter was exposed, Lu Baitao was also arrested, and a storm that was about to sweep the antique world was quickly eliminated, but the fascinating Kun Gong knife was gone, so that his master was depressed for life.
"Alas, I really can't imagine that there will be Lu Fang again today, and the skills are even better than before, I really don't know how much destruction the antique world will suffer." Song Lao couldn't help but sigh, and felt a lot more emotion.
"Song Lao shouldn't be so pessimistic." Liu Sheng comforted with some lack of confidence.
"I hope so." Song Lao nodded.
Liu Sheng then asked curiously, "Old Song, who is Lu Baitao's master?" ”
"Hehe, you'd better ask Old Man Yang about this, that person is still your own uncle." Song Lao smiled and dispelled some of the gloom in his heart.
"Why haven't I heard from Elder Yang?" Liu Sheng asked suspiciously.
"That stubborn old man has long lived in seclusion in Jiangdu, and no one has seen him, especially your old man Yang, according to him, he has no face to see people, and your senior sister is now married, alas, it is really a creation and a trick." Song Lao sighed again and again.
"By the way, Xiao Liu, you tell Lao Yang Tou about this as soon as possible, and then let's go to Gusu to get the knife." Song Lao suddenly reminded.
Liu Sheng nodded, picked up the phone and called Yang Lao.
"Xiaosheng, why did you remember to call me? Is that done over there? Yang Lao took the phone from the secretary and was very surprised to find that it was Liu Sheng.
"Well, things are a bit eyebrow-raising, it's just that I found Lu Fang in Nanri." Liu Sheng said lightly.
"What, what did you say?" Hearing this, Yang Lao jumped up from his chair at once, and his calm heart began to stir again.
"That's right..." Liu Sheng briefly recounted.
"It turns out that Old Song Tou is by your side, so you don't care about this matter and concentrate on dealing with the matter of Sun Quan's tomb." Yang Lao knew from Liu Sheng's narrative that things might not be as terrible as he imagined, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Liu Sheng.
"Hmm." Liu Sheng nodded and put away the phone.
·······
The hall is sparsely populated and the night is longer, and the Gusu City is far away. The rivers and lakes ebb and flow, and the high-rise buildings are different, and the river Han returns to the Guangdian in autumn. The moon turns to the green and the magpie shadow, and the dew is low and the red grass is wet and fluorescent. The poets of Wenyuan should think more, and don't get drunk and sing to cover the Huatang.
Maybe Gusu is not as graceful as Jiangdu in Du Muzhi's eyes, but in Liu Sheng's eyes, it is still a place where talented and beautiful people gather, of course, the most famous in Liu Sheng's eyes is the gardens and food of Gusu, and he himself is a foodie, how can he not taste it when he comes to Gusu.
Song Lao is a figure who goes south and north, although he is based in the United States, but the motherland has long been transparent, and the food tasted is countless, and there are many connections with chefs in many places.
At this moment, under the instigation of Liu Sheng, the greedy insects in the Five Organs Temple also began to rebel, and agreed to Liu Sheng half-pushed and half-agreed on the spot, taking him to prepare to meet his old friend who he hadn't seen for many years.
"Xiao Liu, don't look at the small storefront here, the Gusu cuisine here is the most authentic in Gusu City, and the head chef inside is a master, and he usually doesn't cook for people, unless he is a familiar friend."
Song Lao took Liu Shengqi to a quiet side street, pointed to a restaurant on the corner of the side street, and proudly introduced.
"Hehe, yes, then I have to try it." Liu Sheng looked at the 'Gusu Yijue' on the plaque of the small shop and smiled, and at the same time was full of expectations for the taste in the shop.
"Don't worry, you won't be disappointed." Saying that, Song Lao took the lead in entering the small shop.
"Ahh
Liu Sheng suddenly heard a groan, a fragrant wind rushed towards him, and his left hand seemed to have grasped something, warm and soft, and he couldn't help pinching it, making him a little distracted
"Let go, stinky rascal." A coquettish sound made Liu Sheng, who was distracted, retract his hand in distraction.
"Is that you?"
