Chapter 44: A Lively Exhibition
"I'm going to fight!"
Thinking of Li Yi, Chen Kai immediately felt angry in his heart. At noon, it was obvious that he invited his classmates to dinner, but the limelight was all stolen by Li Yi, and what was even more infuriating was that Li Yi also said that he couldn't afford his antiques!
Do you really think of yourself as the big man who has the jade seal of the country and the true works of Wang Xizhi?
"Hey, Xiaolin, I'm Chen Kai! Yes, isn't the exhibition about to start? I, Xinli, and Suo Wenyue are all here, and I'm about to go and see your precious collection!"
"What, it's just a bit of a thing? Don't be humble in front of me, who doesn't know that your family is a huge amount of money, and he can crush me to death with a finger! Okay, don't say kind words, you're already in the guild hall? The booth is in the middle of the guild hall, it's easy to find? Okay, let's go look for you when we go in, and if we can't find it, I'll call you!"
Hanging up the phone, Chen Kai said with a smile: "This Lin Ruxue actually told me that what they exhibited was just a little bit of broken things, nothing to look at, hehe!"
Yin Xinli said with some confusion: "I heard you say that the booth of the two of them is in the center of the hall?"
"Yes, that's what she said. Chen Kai nodded.
Yin Xinli frowned: "Doesn't it mean that only a few of the most famous collectors will set up a booth in the center? They won't brag again, right?"
Suo Wenyue said: "Whether it's bragging, just go in and take a look." ”
Little by little, the time passed, and soon it was six o'clock. At the gate, several staff began to check tickets, and the crowd that had been waiting for a long time immediately poured into the hall like a tide.
The exhibitors were secretly happy to see so many visitors outside the door. People are animals who like to show off, and who doesn't like to let more people see their antique collections, and cast adoring eyes and heartfelt admiration for them?
Unfortunately, the collectors soon discovered that the crowd did not look at their antiques at all, but instead grabbed the staff.
"May I ask where is the jade seal?"
"Excuse me, where is Wang Xizhi's true handiwork?"
"This gentleman, it is said that there are two sets of Ru porcelain in the exhibition, where are they displayed?"
The staff had no choice but to say: "The things you want to see are all in the central booth, that is, the position where the colored flags are planted and the colored lights are still lit around!"
"Wow, that's over there!"
The crowd rushed to the center booth in unison, and the scene was spectacular. Under the reflection of the jade seal of the country and the authentic works of Wang Xizhi, all the antiques on the surrounding booths were treated as air by everyone!
Seeing this situation, the collectors who were still in ecstasy just now turned pale. Dare them to bring the precious treasures of the family, which are used as backgrounds!
The most depressing thing was the circle of collectors on the periphery of the central stand.
Originally, they were the protagonists of this exhibition, and many people were willing to come just to give face to the Provincial Department of Culture, and Tangshui City was not moved. It's a pity that they should have been in the spotlight and are now completely cold, and all the audience wants to go to the colorful booth in the center, leaving only their ruthless backs.
"I said, why are these booths so in the way, they surround the national treasure in the center so much, how can we squeeze in to see!" A little girl in her twenties couldn't squeeze into the central exhibition area, so she had to stand on the periphery and complain loudly.
"That's right, the designer of the exhibition is really mentally retarded, and he actually surrounded the center booth with a circle of irrelevant booths!" the young man next to the little girl also complained loudly.
He came here tonight to spend a lot of money to invite his girlfriend to see the jade seal, who would have thought that he couldn't even squeeze into the central exhibition area.
Lai Yingbo, a famous collector standing on the edge of the booth, couldn't help but frown. What does it mean to be irrelevant, is he the protagonist of this exhibition?
If it weren't for Li Yi's sudden arrival, he would have added a platform in the middle of the central exhibition area, and their circle would be the real central booth, but in the mouths of these people, they would have become irrelevant!
In the central area, Hu Wanshan arranged eight policemen around Li Yi's booth to maintain order, and there were two policemen on each side, which seems to be too few now.
People frantically put on the glass cabinets with antiques, whether it is jade seals, Wang Xizhi's characters, or Ru porcelain, all of which attract a large number of audiences. Who wouldn't want to look more closely at such a rare treasure?
Although the glass case is bulletproof and unusually sturdy, the police are still a little scared. They all said, "Everyone, step back, don't get too close!"
"Please keep a distance of half a meter and don't touch the booth!"
Although the police are doing their best to maintain order, there are too many onlookers, and as soon as they push this one away, the other one is posted again, and you and I push you, like a bus squeezing the morning rush hour, and it can't be effectively controlled at all.
Dong Chunyan belongs to the kind of person who is more thief, and he grabbed a good position when he started to check the ticket at the door, and he was one of the first batch of troops who flocked to the center display cabinet at this moment.
"Damn Grandma Li, she actually made the police embarrassed me! What's the big deal about knowing acquaintances coming in early, and I haven't come here yet? Hehe, let me see the real works of this Wang Xizhi!"
Dong Chunyan's eyes widened greedily, and he completely stuck his face on the glass case, staring at the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" inside. Although the distance is a bit far, she still hopes to see a flower so that she can go back and brag to her friends.
At this time, a light cough came, and then she heard a familiar voice: "Dong Chunyan, get away!"
"Huh, Grandma Li?" Dong Chunyan only felt a thunderbolt hit his head, and it seemed that someone had poured a basin of cold water from head to toe!
How could Li Ting's goods be so leisurely on the inside of the showcase?
It's not scientific!
Dong Chunyan looked into the distance again, and saw a young man sitting on the sofa in the display case, chatting with the big beauty next to him. He is Li Ting's brother Li Yi!
"How did you get in? let me go in too!"
After being surprised, Dong Chunyan came back to his senses and knocked on the glass and shouted.
Although she has always been not on good terms with Li Yi's brothers and sisters, she can still let go of grievances and seek satisfaction at critical times. These two people are looking at it in the display case, I don't know how high it is higher than her who is through the glass!
"Li Ting, for the sake of my classmates, you let me in!"
Li Ting had already heard Dong Chunyan call her by her nickname, so how could she ignore her anymore, she only said coldly: "Tell you to get away, didn't you hear?"
Dong Chunyan felt that aggrieved in his heart, you brothers and sisters have all run to the booth, and let me stay away?
She immediately grabbed a policeman next to her and shouted, "Uncle policeman, two guys have gotten into the booth, look, look! Get them out!"
The policeman looked back and immediately frowned: "These two are Mr. Li and Miss Li, the collectors specially invited by this exhibition, the exhibits are theirs, of course they are on the inside of the showcase!"
"What? You say that the real work of Wang Xizhi is theirs?" Dong Chunyan's mouth was open enough to stuff a duck egg.
The family of these two brothers and sisters is also a working class, how can they have such a heavy treasure? This is incredible!
The policeman said solemnly: "All the exhibits in this central showcase are theirs. I said that if you want to see it, stay away, don't get too close, don't you see that Miss Li is already dissatisfied with you?"
"What, all the exhibits are theirs?" Dong Chunyan only felt a blur in front of him, almost lost his center of gravity, and fainted on the spot!
The jade seal of the country, the authentic work of Wang Xi, and the ...... of Ru porcelain How much does this stuff cost!
Li Yi's brother and sister, isn't this a rich country?
