4-36 Gifts from the mayor's house

Liu Ziguang casually flipped a few pages: "It's still the Ming Dynasty Chenghua nine years of the Inner House carved book, the imperial version, specially for the emperor to see, but unfortunately not complete, only one volume, otherwise it should be very valuable." ”

He didn't notice the surprised eyes of Li Kun and Wei Ziqian at all, and picked up the chess piece and rubbed it in his hand, commenting: "Well, it's an authentic Yunzi, it should be something from the Xuande period, but it's not in the palace, it's been in the countryside for a long time, it's a little dirty, and the utensils are not the original, they should be matched later, look at the style of this lacquerware, it's probably from the end of the Ming Dynasty." As he spoke, he turned over the bottom and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's from the Apocalypse Dynasty." ”

Li Kun and Wei Ziqian looked at each other, speechless in shock, Wei Ziqian's eyes widened and asked, "You...... Have you worked in an auction house before? ”

"Hehe, no, I'm more interested in the history of the Ming Dynasty, these two gifts are good, the price is not expensive, but it is not good, it has weight, it is very good."

Li Kun asked Wei Ziqian: "What he said is correct?" ”

Wei Ziqian shook his head and said: "It's not just correct, it's just accurate, even the people in the auction house can't determine the specific era of Go, only say that it was from the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and he can be sure that it was the Xuande period in one bite, it's too unbelievable." ”

Li Kun tilted his head to look at Liu Ziguang, and suddenly asked, "Can you tell the specific price?" ”

Liu Ziguang said with a smile: "The books printed in the inner house are not valuable, even if they are beautifully bound, the cost is not high, the books in the inner house are not priced, and I have not calculated the specific cost, but the price of the same books in the outer bookstore should be around fifteen Wen, and the price of the box of Yunzi is easy to estimate, I used to have a pair of better than this one at home in Jinan, worth twenty taels." As he spoke, he rubbed his Go gently, as if immersed in the memories of the past.

Li Kun's mouth slowly grew into an O-shape, and she looked at Wei Ziqian, who was also surprised, she asked about the auction price, these two things are worth geometric yuan, not the price of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Ziguang is good, and directly quoted the price of the Ming Dynasty, and it is extremely accurate.

"You...... Where do you live in Jinan? Wei Ziqian interjected and asked.

"Baotu Spring...... Hehe, near Baotu Spring Park, forget it, it's all in the past, don't mention it. Liu Ziguang smiled, but there was a bit of loneliness in his expression that was difficult to hide.

"Oh, Ziqian, how much are these two gifts?" Li Kun understood that those past events might be something that Liu Ziguang didn't want to mention, so he diverted the topic.

"Mr. Liu is right, the transaction price of this Imperial System Governance Tongjian Compendium is 8,000 yuan, and the price of the Go pair is higher, 30,000 yuan." Wei Ziqian said.

Li Kun nodded and said: "Mayor Zhou is a senior intellectual, he likes ancient books and talks, these two gifts belong to the right medicine, and the price is not high, the style is elegant, I believe he will definitely laugh at it." ”

Liu Ziguang praised: "It's still Mr. Li's homework." ”

Li Kun said: "Gift-giving is particular, but you may not dare to receive gifts, if it is not for your relationship, we Zhicheng Group rashly send gifts to the door, Mayor Zhou will probably turn away, because we have no intersection, no contacts, so it is not the ability to give gifts with money, it is the ability to give gifts." ”

Liu Ziguang slapped his face in agreement, but looked at the two gifts and asked again: "What about Mrs. Zhou's share?" ”

Li Kun gestured to Wei Ziqian, who opened the closet, took out two paper bags from it, and introduced: "This is a pair of Ba11y women's shoes, and a Hermes women's bag, this year's latest model, Paris has just been launched." ”

Li Kun added: "Mayor Zhou's wife is also an intellectual, born in a scholarly family, and has overseas relatives, so the gift to her should also be extra cautious, and the style cannot be low, if it is another leader's wife, I will choose something 1V, but Mrs. Zhou should prefer a low-key brand of the same level." ”

Liu Ziguang said: "Yes, consider everything, it's better to do this, let's go over together, the atmosphere can be more lively, after all, I am not very familiar with Mayor Zhou, good officialdom to deal with, you should be more experienced than me." ”

Li Kun smiled and said, "You are not familiar, and I am even less familiar, but don't worry, I have already arranged another person for you." After speaking, he looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "You go home with me at half past five, and then make arrangements." ”

"Why do you want to go home first?" Liu Ziguang wondered why Mr. Li was so bold and bold this time, and said in front of Wei Ziqian that he would not go home or not.

Li Kun pursed his lips and smiled again, and said, "Mayor Zhou's home is in Binjiang Jinguancheng, and I am neighbors. ”

……

At half past five in the afternoon, Liu Ziguang drove back to Binjiang Jinguancheng with Li Kun, who directed him to go around the underground parking lot, pointed to an orange swift in the parking space and said: "This car is the mayor's wife's car, it seems that she is already at home, you can go up." ”

Liu Ziguang praised: "Mayor Zhou is really a person who cherishes feathers, his wife will open swifts, and now even the mayor's wife is at least a BMW 3 series." ”

Li Kun said: "By the way, Mayor Zhou is really concerned about his official reputation, in the big dye vat of Jiangbei City, he is a vulgar bureaucrat, but this also shows that this person has high ambitions, and he does not fight for the length of a moment, if the fortune comes, his future may not be the end of a mayor." ”

The two commented, stopped the car, Liu Ziguang came out with a gift, Li Kun wrote Mayor Zhou's address on a note and handed it to him, saying, "I won't go up with you, naturally someone will accompany you." ”

Liu Ziguang asked who she was, Li Kun smiled and didn't answer, just said that he would know when he met.

After coming up from the underground parking lot, Li Kun went home directly, Liu Ziguang carried two inconspicuous bags and walked to the building where Mayor Zhou's house was located, as soon as he entered the door, there was a familiar figure sitting on the sand of the foyer, with short ears and bright and smart eyes, it was Jiang Xueqing, the female anchor and reporter of Jiangbei TV Station.

Needless to say, the person arranged by Li Kun is her, Liu Ziguang smiled and went up to greet Jiang Xueqing, Jiang Xueqing stood up and shook hands with Liu Ziguang generously, Binjiang Jinguancheng is much higher than Zhicheng Garden, there are two property service personnel on duty in the downstairs hall of each unit, visitors must register, and contact the owner before they can go up, but obviously they all know Jiang Xueqing, and they don't even have to go through the procedure with Liu Ziguang.

"We're in this together." Jiang Xueqing explained to the two property ladies, then picked up her bag and went upstairs with Liu Ziguang, Mayor Zhou's home is on the twenty-ninth floor, Jiang Xueqing is familiar with the door, and when she arrives at the door, she rings the doorbell, and there is immediately a sound of footsteps inside, and the aunt comes to open the door, and a female voice comes: "Is Xueqing here?" ”

"Godmother, I'm here." Jiang Xueqing greeted at the door, turned around and squeezed her eyes at Liu Ziguang, and changed into slippers, Liu Ziguang suddenly realized, no wonder Li Kun invited Jiang Xueqing to come out, everyone recognized her godmother, can this relationship be bad.

I also changed my slippers and walked into the house, Mayor Zhou's home was decorated with antique, a water of Chinese furniture, Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum on the wall, obviously from the handwriting of a famous artist, all kinds of antique porcelain on the Bogu shelf, and the smell of books came to the face.

Mayor Zhou's wife loves to watch the program hosted by Jiang Xueqing, and later Jiang Xueqing had an accident, and she also spoke later, Mayor Zhou, who was in charge of radio and television, spoke and reactivated Jiang Xueqing, Jiang Xueqing, this girl is also angry, made several programs and won awards in the province, and did not shy away from his corrupt and bribed father, sold the house and car and took the initiative to make up for the country's losses, and won everyone's respect with his actions.

Jiang Xueqing knew that she was entrusted, recognized Mrs. Zhou as her godmother, and since then she has often been in and out of Zhou's mansion, she is lively by nature and good at enlivening the atmosphere, and it is really the best choice to ask her to come forward.

Seeing that her goddaughter brought a strange man over, and this man was a man of great beauty, a talent, Mrs. Zhou suddenly smiled, warmly beckoned the guests to sit down, asked the nanny to make tea, and pulled Jiang Xueqing aside, and asked mysteriously: "Have you confirmed the relationship?" ”

Jiang Xueqing glanced at her with disgust, pursed her lips and said in a long voice: "Godmother~~~"

Mrs. Zhou has no daughter, and she eats Jiang Xueqing's set the most, so she immediately smiled and said, "Okay, good, godmother doesn't ask." ”

Over there, Liu Ziguang also politely exchanged a few words with Mrs. Zhou, and took out the gift and said that it was his own care from Europe, and asked Mrs. Zhou to smile.

Mrs. Zhou is not a layman, low-key does not mean old-fashioned, she is familiar with these international brands, the style and color of these two gifts are extremely compatible with her identity and age, and the price is definitely expensive, even if Mrs. Zhou is a picky person, after seeing the gift, her eyes can't help but light up.

"This kid is really sensible, so the aunt will accept it."

The gift to Mayor Zhou was also taken out, and then Liu Ziguang was about to get up and say goodbye, Mrs. Zhou also followed her husband in the officialdom for many years, and understood that the gifts of tens of thousands of yuan were definitely not to sit for a while and drink a cup of tea, that was to see the main owner, and immediately said: "If you come, you are not allowed to leave, and after dinner, I will taste my aunt's craftsmanship." ”

It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, the nanny went to the kitchen to wash vegetables and wash rice, Mrs. Zhou accompanied the guests to talk, Liu Ziguang talked decently, polite, Jiang Xueqing gag, the atmosphere was also warm, not much effort, the dishes were ready, Mrs. Zhou put on an apron to cook herself, and did not forget to call Mayor Zhou first, just when he said that he was already on the way, and he would arrive in a while.

Before Mrs. Zhou's dishes were fried, Mayor Zhou arrived home, and when he saw Liu Ziguang and Jiang Xueqing sitting in the living room, he smiled, hung up his coat and leather bag, walked over and shook hands with Liu Ziguang, and said, "The young man moves very fast." "I don't know if it's a compliment or a joke.

Liu Ziguang smiled silently, Mayor Zhou's eyes quickly fell on the two gifts, and his eyes lit up, he took out glasses and white gloves from under the coffee table, tasted them carefully, and praised them: "The imperial version of the Ming Dynasty is rare, this Go is also a treasure, rare, rare." ”

Liu Ziguang praised a few words very appropriately, and Jiang Xueqing took advantage of the words: "Mayor Zhou, why don't you talk to Liu Ziguang for a game, it's enjoyable, don't look at him young, he is not bad at Go." ”

Liu Ziguang hurriedly humbled and said that he was only at the beginning level, but Mayor Zhou was unwilling to give up this opportunity and asked to play a game with Liu Ziguang, but Mrs. Zhou was unhappy: "The meals are ready, you will play chess for a few hours, and you don't need to eat?" ”

Mayor Zhou had to give up, the nanny brought the food, the guest and the host sat down, Mayor Zhou also specially opened a jar of Guyue Longshan aged rice wine, and asked Liu Ziguang to accompany him to drink a cup, Liu Ziguang proposed to add plum rock candy to the stove to cook wine, Mayor Zhou immediately stroked his palm and praised: "You are really a person who understands wine." ”

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "Our old Zhou hasn't been so happy for a long time, Jiangbei people don't like to drink rice wine, saying that it is cooking wine, and the wine field is white, alas, the local wine culture is harmful." ”

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very harmonious, Liu Ziguang and Jiang Xueqing praised Mrs. Zhou's cooking skills, they didn't drink much, but they were very happy, when they were drunk, Mayor Zhou looked at the time of the floor clock, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, and tuned to the provincial news station.

The news of the provincial leader's inspection of a certain place was being broadcast on the TV, and the announcer introduced in an enthusiastic voice: "The groundbreaking ceremony of the high-tech industrial park in our province is ...... the leaders of the provincial party committee"

Mayor Zhou watched intently, very concerned, Liu Ziguang also glanced at it, and suddenly his eyes were attracted by the TV screen, how could the No. 1 leader who was surrounded by everyone be so familiar!
