Chapter 582: Apprenticeship Ceremony (Part II)

In addition, there are some jade carving masters from Tianjing, which is the same, which makes everyone's hearts full of amazement, what achievements this Chen Yi has made, it is worthy of these well-known figures from all walks of life to be treated like this.

Although these people greeted Gao Cunzhi and the others, they stayed by Chen Yi's side for the longest time, and during the conversation, they seemed to be very familiar with Chen Yi, which was what they were most puzzled about and what they couldn't believe the most.

Then Jiang Wei also came to the villa, presented a piece of jade, and after greeting Chen Yi and others, he walked in.

Seeing Jiang Wei, Chen Yi was a little helpless, after learning that he was going to apprentice, Jiang Wei came to Haoyang a few days ago, saying that he wanted to participate in Chen Yi's apprenticeship ceremony, and he was also responsible for the publicity of Zhang Fei's beef this time.

Next, to Chen Yi's surprise, Xiao Shenghua also sent someone to congratulate him, and presented a calligraphy worth one million, after offering a congratulatory gift, the middle-aged man and Gao Cunzhi nodded their heads one by one, walked to Chen Yi's side, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, Mr. Xiao asked me to tell you, when you get engaged in three days, he will give you a gift, and on the day you and Miss Shen get married, he will come to congratulate you in person." ”

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Chen Yi couldn't help but thank him, "This gentleman, thank Mr. Xiao for me." ”

"Haha, Mr. Chen, when the time comes, you can only thank him personally, but he still misses your calligraphy, I will go in first." The middle-aged man laughed, patted Chen Yi's shoulder, and slowly walked towards the courtyard.

This person from Hong Kong Huatian Investment Company, and Chen Yi's exchange with Chen Yi made everyone a little confused. Chen Yi is familiar with these people in the antique industry. It already made them a little incredulous. Unexpectedly, even the CEO of an investment company in Hong Kong had a relationship with Chen Yi.

The guests who came to congratulate one after another, it can be said that there was an endless stream, and at ten o'clock in the morning, the welcoming stage was officially over, and the next step was the formal apprenticeship ceremony.

At the same time, some media outlets were allowed to enter to record the ceremony. And their more important task is to photograph the dishes at the next banquet, and see which dish will be closely related to the national treasure two days later.

Next, the formal apprenticeship ceremony began, Zheng Lao is a person in the Chinese antique industry, and his apprenticeship ceremony is naturally more traditional, after the master of ceremonies on the side finished the opening speech, please invite some elders to sit down, including Uncle Liu, counting, or Uncle Liu sent Chen Yi to Zheng Lao. can be regarded as Chen Yi's introducer.

After that, the apprentice is seated, and the master is seated. An elder named Uncle Liu and Xu Guoqiang presented the teacher's post, read it out, and then offered six rites to cultivate, celery means diligence and studiousness, industry is diligent, lotus seeds are hard-hearted, meaning painstaking education...... Each one has a special meaning to express the mind of the disciple.

Then Chen Yi and Xu Guoqiang bowed to Zheng Lao, bowed three times, and offered tea, and Zheng Lao took the tea offered by the two, smiled and asked the two to get up, and then, Chen Yi and the two presented their own apprenticeship to Zheng Lao.

"Master, this is a piece of Ming blue and white porcelain that I have found (this is a landscape map of Dong Qichang's tomb that I found), in order to thank the master and my brother for their previous teaching, we will continue to work hard and contribute our own strength to the cause of Chinese antiques and cultural relics." Xu Guoqiang and Chen Yi each gave an antique they had picked up as an apprenticeship gift to Zheng Lao.

Chen Yi originally wanted to take out Fu Shan's cursive Huayan Sutra, without the teachings of Zheng Lao and Gao Cunzhi, he would not have achieved such a great achievement in a short period of time, but Zheng Lao waved his hand at that time and asked Chen Yi to take out one at will, if he took out the Huayan Sutra, he would never accept it.

Zheng Lao took the apprenticeship and displayed them one by one, seeing these two antiques, everyone was a little surprised, this piece of Ming blue and white porcelain is worth at least three million, and that Dong Qichang's landscape map of Jianling, judging from the ink method on it, can exceed five million.

They didn't expect that these two young people, who had never heard of it before, would be able to find two such precious antiques and take them out as apprentices without hesitation.

After Zheng Lao returned the salute to the two, and sent a token to the two, after receiving the gift, Chen Yi and Xu Guoqiang bowed to Zheng Lao again, so far, the apprenticeship ceremony was completed.

The old people on the side couldn't help but smile, and they were very envious of the fact that Old Zheng was able to accept two such good apprentices.

Needless to say, Chen Yi's comprehension ability in all aspects is simply very amazing, and he has a strong ability in antique appraisal, calligraphy and painting, jade carving, and tea ceremony, while Xu Guoqiang, although he has been low-key, but his antique appraisal ability is very solid, and he stands alone in auction houses and antique shops.

After the ceremony, the whole atmosphere also became brisk, "Lao Zheng, if it weren't for Chen Xiaozi recognizing you as a master, I wouldn't have been able to rob you of apprentices here." Lu Lao said with a smile, he really regretted that he had missed Chen Yi, but when Kaili met Chen Yi, he was already a registered disciple of Zheng Lao.

It's just that when he was in Kaili, he just thought that Chen Yi knew some appraisal knowledge, but he never thought that when he met Chen Yi again in Tianjing, there were earth-shaking changes.

Yuan Lao smiled, "Chen Xiaoyou has studied the boneless method with me for a period of time, and in terms of counting, he is still half a disciple of our Lingnan School of painting, and I am also half of his master." ”

"Old Yuan, hehe, we have to come out if you say that, Xiao Yi has been studying jade carving with us for several months, and he is the successor of our Lingzhou jade carving, if it weren't for Zheng Lao, we would have been his master long ago." Gu couldn't stand it at this time, and stood up and said.

"Haha, Old Man Yuan, Chen Xiaoyou and I have studied painting in Tianjing for a month, but it is much stronger than your sparse guidance." At this time, Fu Lao also stood up and launched a crusade against Yuan Lao.

Yuan Lao was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand, "This is wrong, why are you all shooting at me, Chen Xiaoyou's master is Zheng Lao, your target should be him." ”

"Haha, who let you come out first, now it's on Zheng Lao's territory, we don't bully you and bully anyone." Seeing Yuan Lao's confused face, everyone laughed.

Hearing these words of the old men, everyone at the scene was amazed, what did Chen Yi do, it is worth these old men to compete to accept him as an apprentice, painting, jade carving, is this what to see and learn, if it is just like this, how can these famous people from all walks of life compete to accept him as apprentices, can it be that these things learned have been understood by Chen Yi and exerted great ability.

For Chen Yi's ability, everyone was extremely curious in their hearts, how good this young man who was only in his twenties was, so many old men wanted to take him as an apprentice.

"Okay, don't complain, go to the banquet and let everyone guess which dish is related to the national treasure in two days." Old Zheng stood up at this time, waved his hand with a smile on his face and said.

Hearing Zheng Lao's words, everyone entered the hall next to them, participated in this banquet, and looked at some of the dishes on the table with great curiosity, not knowing which dish would be related to the national treasure that would be released.

After all the people attending the banquet were seated, Zheng Lao's hands were gently pressed, and the scene was suddenly quiet, "Everyone, welcome to the old man's apprenticeship ceremony, I feel very lucky and satisfied to be able to receive Xu Guoqiang and Chen Yi, two good apprentices, I hope they can use their abilities to benefit the antique and cultural relics world." ”

After a burst of applause, Zheng Lao continued: "I believe you all know that this banquet can be said to have a close relationship with a national treasure that will be released in two days, now please start tasting the dishes, take a look at which dish tastes more unique and delicious, guess which dish is really related to the national treasure, the top ten guess correctly, I will let him participate in the press conference in two days, and have the opportunity to see the national treasure appear with his own eyes, okay, everyone start tasting." ”

With the end of Zheng Lao's words, everyone looked at the more than ten dishes on the table, each of which looked very exquisite, for a while, they couldn't guess which one was related to the national treasure, and soon, they picked up the chopsticks one by one and tasted them, carefully tasting the taste, they felt that since Zheng Lao said that the taste was unique, then the taste of this dish must be very unique.

"Old man Zheng, I guess it's this crystal shrimp, it looks shiny, just like Zhuge Liang, a famous figure in the Three Kingdoms, I guess this dish is related to tomorrow's national treasure." Not long after Zheng Lao finished speaking, a person raised his hand and said with shrimp in his mouth.

Zheng Lao smiled, pointed to the staff on the side, and wrote down what this person guessed, "Everyone, the guessing results will not be announced on the spot, but I will contact you later and issue the admission certificate, but I want to remind you that there is no complete certainty, just guess the dishes, if you guess the dishes correctly, guess the wrong characters, and don't count." ”

Hearing Zheng Lao's reminder, some people who wanted to guess after just eating one or two dishes dispelled their thoughts and began to taste each dish carefully.

"Old Zheng, I guess it's this West Lake vinegar fish ......" "I guess it's this Tai Chi taro paste, this taro paste is Tai Chi shape, I guess it must be Zhang Sanfeng."

Hearing these words, the scene couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Haha, brother, Zhang Sanfeng is from the Ming Dynasty, not from the Three Kingdoms, let you guess the Three Kingdoms, not just let you guess historical figures." ”

"Zheng Lao, I guess it's this beef, I've eaten a lot of beef, but there is nothing that can achieve this taste, there is no such thing, this taste is very unique, its entrance is smooth, and the taste is very delicious, as for which character this beef is related to the Three Kingdoms, I can't guess." At this time, when a person tasted the beef that is necessary for every banquet, he couldn't help but show surprise on his face, thought for a long time, and raised his hand to say.
