Chapter 41 Impressive Antiques
Sheng Hongxuan has seen a lot of things, so even if someone sends some relatively rare antique calligraphy and paintings, it is difficult to arouse his interest.
Therefore, for everyone's birthday gifts, in addition to those of two old friends, the rest of Sheng Hongxuan is to let people accept them in the treasury after reading them.
Just when everyone thought that the gift was over, they saw Song Jun stand up and say: "The old man's eightieth birthday, I came today, and I can't come empty-handed. ”
Originally, everyone really thought that Song Jun was coming to the birthday banquet with him, and if he followed his elders, with the face of Professor Yan Kuan, and brought one or two family members, it would not be a big deal, Sheng Hongxuan could only be happy about this matter, and there was absolutely no reason not to allow it. The battle between Song Jun and Chu Yuan was actually in private, and no one thought that Song Jun really brought any birthday gifts.
However, Song Jun has been in the antique circle for so long, so he naturally understands the truth of being a man.
Sheng Hongxuan is an elder anyway, and he is a friend of the teacher and the master, so it is necessary to bring a gift.
Song Jun's words really surprised Sheng Hongxuan, and even said that Professor Yan Kuan felt very surprised, he asked Song Jun to come here, just to let this disciple of his own see the world, I didn't expect this kid to know how to bring a birthday gift.
Sheng Hongxuan hahadaxiao, there was a happy expression between his eyebrows and eyes: "Okay, little guy, it's rare that you have such filial piety." Lao Yan, you student, but you are much more sensible than you old guy, I think back then, when we were in college, I had a birthday, you didn't slaughter me for a meal of egg fried rice that time, and you didn't bring any gifts. ”
When Sheng Hongxuan was young, it was fifty or sixty years ago when he went to college, good guy, at that time, it was already a good treatment to be able to eat egg fried rice on his birthday, if he said that he could go to the restaurant, it would be a very good result.
Professor Yan Kuan saw Sheng Hongxuan revealing the previous things, and he was not to be outdone, and he hummed and said unconvinced: "I had a birthday back then, and I didn't see you give me a gift, it's still a disciple I cultivated, I didn't expect you to know to bring something over on your birthday." I said Xiao Song, your grandfather Sheng's family has a big business, he eats and drinks for nothing, and he can't eat poorly, why did you bring something. ”
Between the jokes, it can also be seen that the deep friendship between the two old men, if it weren't for this, Old Man Sheng would not be so joking. Between jokes, Song Jun had already taken out his gift.
Good guy, Song Jun's gift is actually a small one-foot-long box, everyone here is a very poisonous character, antique shop, observing words and feelings, recognizing things, and also starting from the appearance, but look at the small box that Song Jun took out, the general small gift box sold on the street, the kind of two or three yuan a piece, and there is not even some glittering wrapping paper.
It can be said that this box is basically the kind of small gift box that is thrown on the side of the street and may not be picked up. There's really nothing appealing about it. People rely on clothing, Buddha relies on gold, especially in the antique shop, if there is a gorgeous appearance, the price of the thing will increase a lot, at least the first impression will be very haode.
Therefore, generally speaking, the packaging of antiques is very particular, and the matter of buying and returning pearls has not happened in the antique shop, and the packaging is more valuable than the contents of the box, and it has not happened, but it is very much.
For example, with a rosewood box, put a blue and white porcelain bowl of the Republic of China or something. Anyway, some people have a place to reimburse, and this kind of gift is not worried about not being able to sell.
And Song Jun's box, good guy, makes people shake their heads when they see it, what is it inside, this has aroused everyone's curiosity.
Song Jun just made Chu Yuan's tea amphora worthless, and Zuihou also smashed other people's things, there is only one possibility, that is, he either didn't bring any gifts, anyway, there was nothing to eat and drink with the teacher.
Now that Song Jun has brought a gift, the things he brought should be more precious than the amphora of tea leaves.
Song Jun also seemed to feel everyone's strange gaze, and said a little embarrassed: "I only got the thing a few days ago, so I didn't find a suitable box." ”
took it out, a letter, and Song Jun handed it over. Calender paper? Everyone's eyes don't rub sand, and the envelope is actually made of calender paper, the paper used by the royal family.
This is the real answer to that sentence, people rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold, originally everyone really had no confidence in Song Jun's gifts, and even said that the old man Sheng Hongxuan actually didn't put Song Jun's gift in his heart at all. But I didn't expect to see such an envelope of precious paper.
Therefore, at this time, it is inevitable that everyone will have expectations for the contents of this envelope. Who in the end can have such a great ability to use this kind of paper known as the king of the four treasures of the study room as an envelope.
But on the envelope, there was not a word, and there was no hint at all.
At this time, everyone's expectations for the inside of the envelope are even stronger.
If it is said that it has a name, then this letter is actually a more ordinary letter.
This is not necessarily, but the kind without a name, it is really hard to say, a bit like a secret decree and the like, if the name is not written, then in such a case, it means that the content of the envelope may be relatively confidential, and I don't want outsiders to know, so I deliberately did not write the name.
Therefore, at this time, everyone was looking around, watching the old man Sheng Hongxuan open the envelope to see what kind of letter it looked like.
After opening it, I didn't expect that the old man Sheng Hongxuan, who was originally happy, actually had a serious face, and read the content of the letter intently.
What kind of situation is this, on the 80th birthday, the day of great joy, when I saw a letter, I actually cried bitterly.
Professor Yan Kuan knows this old friend of his very well, and he rarely saw him cry when he was young, and at this age, there is basically nothing that can make him so excited.
It's like a person living in hell who suddenly sees the brilliance of God.
