Chapter 67: The Nouveau riche

A short silence belongs to the happiness of two people.

At this moment, seeing someone coming out of the guard's mansion, Su Yuexin quickly broke free from Xia Yu's arms and tidied up the clothes on her body.

"Brother Xia, Yuexin, you two are here." Li Shimin greeted with a smile.

Accompanied by Li Jiancheng and Pei Lian, the two have always been at odds with Xia Yu.

Li Shimin sent an invitation to Xia Yu: "Brother Xia, in the near future, we plan to go to Boguzhai in Jinyu City to buy a pair of Zhongtang and frame the Guard's Mansion, do you want to go together?" ”

"Brother Xia is a layman in calligraphy and painting, what's the use of looking for him." Li Jiancheng was a little unhappy.

Pei Lin said sarcastically: "Only famous families like us usually have nothing to do to enjoy calligraphy and painting, and those who do business must care most about yellow and white things." ”

"Haha, haha......" both laughed at the same time.

A merchant family like the Su family, although they have a lot of industries, they will never set foot in the calligraphy and painting of historical monuments and celebrities.

It stands to reason that everyone in business will be elegant and elegant, and engage in some celebrity calligraphy and painting to decorate the faΓ§ade.

Su Cheng also bought a "Half Pavilion Preface" at that time and hung it in the hall of Sufu.

Later, half of Jinyang City laughed out of his teeth, and the fake of "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was so fake that even one word was wrong.

Because the merchant who sold Su Cheng's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" coaxed him into saying that this was written like this by the king's hand at that time, which was enough to deceive Su Cheng of 100,000 yuan of silver.

How to say it, the Su family has no background, and now it is an upstart in the mouths of the people.

Su Yuexin refused to admit defeat, and in the face of the ridicule of the two, she could only remain silent.

All this fell in Xia Yu's eyes, if you mess with me, you can't mess with Su Yuexin!

He pinched Su Yuexin's little hand and said with an indifferent smile: "Since there are several people who are so Yaxing, anyway, Yuexin has never seen the customs and people of Jinyucheng when she first came to Jinyucheng, so she happened to go shopping together." ”

While talking, the five of them walked towards Jinyu Street together.

On the way, Su Yuexin asked Xia Yu in a low voice: "Xia Yu, do you know how to play antiques, calligraphy and paintings?" ”

"I don't understand." Xia Yu squeezed his eyes: "If you call me a husband, I will understand immediately." ”

Su Yuexin stepped on Xia Yu fiercely, and said, "Don't you understand, these people just want to see our jokes?" ”

"Hmph, look at our jokes! In the heart of the moon, you will see how Xianggong is angry for you! Xia Yu took Su Yuexin's hand and followed the three people in front.

The group stopped in front of Bogu Zhai's building.

It's a three-storey building, antique, and the gold-sliding plaque looks extraordinary.

Jinyucheng is most famous for antique calligraphy and painting, and Bogu Zhai is one of the best.

Even the waiters who stood at the door to greet them also exuded a handsome and graceful bearing.

Entering Bogu Zhai, Pei Lin seemed to be specially designed to show his profundity, picked up an incense burner and said: "The ears and mouths on both sides of this incense burner are arc-shaped, and the surface has deep or shallow cloud patterns, which should be something of the Han Dynasty, which is really extraordinary." At least ten taels of gold! ”

The waiter laughed and said: "This master, you are really professional, this incense burner originally had a pair, and the other was taken away." ”

The first floor was full of ancient pieces, Pei Lin spoke eloquently, and the waiter was stunned for a moment, and was deeply impressed by Pei Lian's knowledge.

"Master, I have something here, do you know it? If you know, we'll give you this little thing. ”

"Oh? Take it and take a look! ”

The waiter brought Pei Lin a cylindrical jade, and there was a faint blood-colored flow at one end.

This object, Pei Lin really hadn't seen it, he secretly looked at the waiter, coughed and said: "This little object is a good jade, but the color is insufficient, and there are impurities in it." You see that there is still so much red rust inside it, it must be a jade pillar blocking the bottom of the water tank. ”

The waiter admired: "I don't know this little thing, uncle."

, I heard you say the truth, and I will give it to you. ”

Pei Lin proudly shook the little jade pillar in front of Xia Yu, ready to take it into his arms.

Xia Yu smiled: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, some people really don't know how to pretend to understand, and saying that this thing is a wooden pillar blocked at the bottom of the water tank, it really makes people laugh off their big teeth!" ”

"Xia Yu, you don't talk cool here, then let me ask you, what do you say this thing is? If you get it right, I'll give you this! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, Pei Xingjian still keep this thing for himself, and keep it for you after a thousand years."

Pei Lian's face turned extremely red, and he took a step forward: "Xia Yu, what are your intentions, how did you mention my death!" ”

Xia Yu didn't panic at all, and said calmly to Pei Lian: "Pei Xingjian, you put that little jade pillar in your nose and smell it, do you smell a piece of." In ancient times, it was believed that as long as a person's nine orifices were blocked, the soul would remain in the corpse to ensure that the corpse would not decay. ”

"The small jade pillar in your hand is the jade piece used to block the valley road, and its name is Jade Jue. Originally, there was a set of nine pieces, but for some reason only one appeared here? ”

"But why is the rust of this jade so good?" The waiter was still a little unconvinced.

"Of course, the rust is moistened by the blood in the valley road, if you don't believe it, brother, you can try to put it in your valley road." Xia Yu patted the waiter on the shoulder.

The waiter shivered and shook his head repeatedly.

Pei Lin shivered and threw Yu Jue away.

Li Shimin expressed his intention to the waiter.

When the waiter heard that they had come to buy the middle hall, he hurriedly invited them to the third floor.

In the calligraphy and painting room on the third floor, the walls are full of calligraphy and paintings, which are dazzling, but they are all ordinary products, and they can't enter their eyes.

The waiter is quite observant and goes to invite the boss of Bogu Zhai.

After the boss came over, he had a smile on his face, and he looked like a businessman's kindness.

"I heard that the five of them are here to buy calligraphy and paintings, I don't know what price to come up with?"

Pei Lin was about to speak, when Xia Yu stepped forward and stretched out his hand to the boss's sleeve, and the two gestured in the sleeve.

After a while, the boss said with a happy face, "Let's go, I'll take you to another place in Zhai." ”

Turn around the wall and head to the secret room.

He immediately made good tea for Xia Yu and the others, and then opened another small secret room of less than a few square meters and walked inside.

"Xia Yu, how do you understand this?"

Su Yuexin asked with interest.

Xia Yu said: "It was the eldest brother who taught me, and when it comes to a large amount of money, businessmen will fight their sleeves." That is, to compare the amount in the sleeve. ”

Su Yuexin said with low interest: "The eldest brother is eccentric, he never teaches me." ”

In a moment, the boss walked out of the secret room and took out a scroll and slowly unfolded it.

The pale yellow scrolls are covered with large handwriting, and a sense of charm jumps on the paper, which is elegant.
