Chapter 41: An Unexpected Reunion
Wang Shihe's efficiency was very fast, and it only took two days to hand Zhang Hao a design drawing that he couldn't find fault with.
He called with great satisfaction and said, "Designer Wang, let's follow this drawing." ”
"Okay, Mr. Zhang." Wang Shihe said, "The layout of your living room is very good, so we don't need to renovate the living room, just arrange the furniture directly, and it will not affect your normal life."
As for the construction period, it will definitely be completed within a week. ”
"It couldn't be better." Zhang Hao asked, "When will you start work, and I will hand over a set of keys to you when the time comes." ”
At lunch yesterday, Wang Shihe promised to be there in person.
With Zhou Bin's face, Zhang Hao naturally felt at ease to hand over the key to the other party.
Wang Shihe said: "Mr. Zhang, we can start work tomorrow. ”
Zhang Hao nodded and said, "Very good, I'll wait for you at home tomorrow." ”
Wang Shihe asked, "Okay, we can arrive around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, is it convenient for you?" ”
Zhang Hao said: "Convenient. ”
After making an appointment with Wang Shihe, Zhang Hao was about to drive out for a ride and go shopping in the mall by the way, but Chu Chen's call rang on his mobile phone.
The other party asked politely: "Zhang Hao, didn't bother you, right?" ”
Zhang Hao said: "No, Brother Chu, I'm idle."
Chu Chen asked again: "I want to ask, has your house started to be renovated?" ”
"Not yet..."Zhang Hao muttered, "Listening to Brother Chu's meaning, I can't wait to see those porcelain?" ”
"Haha, Zhang Hao, who knows me!" Chu Chen smiled, "Then do you mind if I come to the door to be a villain?" ”
Zhang Hao said: "Naturally, I don't mind, Brother Chu, when will you come over?" I'll send you the location. ”
If there is business to do, he will naturally not shirk it.
"I'll be right over." Chu Chen said, "There is another thing I want to trouble you, I will be drinking tea with a friend outside, he heard that you have porcelain from the Western Jin Dynasty, and he also wants to see it, is it convenient for you to see it?" ”
"Of course it's convenient." Zhang Hao said, "I'm waiting for the two of you at home. ”
Chu Chen wanted to bring a friend over, although it was a bit unexpected for Zhang Hao, but it was not a good thing.
One more person may create one more potential customer.
Putting down the phone, he took out pieces of porcelain from the system warehouse and displayed them in the living room.
Then, he found the ladder in the utility room in the basement, threw the ladder into the system warehouse, walked back to the living room, and took out the ladder and two original works of Song Huizong in a calligraphy and painting frame.
After stepping on the ladder and hanging the two calligraphy and paintings in a conspicuous position on the wall, Zhang Hao called Steward Su again and asked the other party to bring some refreshments.
Finally, he boiled hot water and was ready to ask Steward Su to help him make a pot of tea later.
About 1 hour later, Chu Chen and the others came to Zhang Hao's courtyard gate.
Butler Su, who knew that Zhang Hao was going to entertain his friends, took the initiative to greet the two at the gate of the courtyard, and Zhang Hao himself stood outside the house waiting for the two.
When Steward Su appeared in his sight with Chu Chen and the two of them holding the gift box, a trace of surprise suddenly flashed on Zhang Hao's face, and he immediately stepped forward and greeted: "Old Qin, Brother Chu, hello!" ”
"Oh, what's going on?" Chu Chen's curious gaze swirled back and forth between Zhang Hao and Qin Zhenye, "Old Qin, do you know each other?" ”
"I had a relationship at Wang Xu's auction dinner." Qin Zhenye smiled and said, "Zhang Hao, I didn't expect that we would meet here again." ”
Zhang Hao nodded and said, "Yes, Old Qin, what a coincidence!" ”
"Haha, Zhang Hao, you don't know, Old Qin has a very high opinion of you!" Chu Chen smiled, "But it makes sense now, I said why did two young people who are quite good at antiques pop up all of a sudden, it turns out that I and Qin Lao are talking about the same person!" ”
Zhang Hao instantly understood that when Qin Zhenye and Chu Chen were drinking tea, they mentioned that the two were talking in the box of the dinner, but he didn't report his name to Chu Chen.
He hurriedly said: "Old Qin, Brother Chu, you are exalting me too much, this bit of ink in my stomach has been squeezed dry by you." ”
"Not necessarily." Qin Zhenye quipped, "Look, didn't I just find out today, you are also quite proficient in the porcelain of the Western Jin Dynasty!" ”
"Haha, a momentary surprise, snubbing the two of you!" Zhang Hao understood, opened the armored door and invited, "Old Qin, Brother Chu, please come in!" ”
After Qin Zhenye and Chu Chen walked into the villa one after another, Steward Su bowed slightly to Zhang Hao, ready to say goodbye and leave.
Zhang Hao threw a grateful look at the other party, and then turned around and walked into the house.
After he led Qin Zhenye and the two into the living room, the two suddenly stopped in front of the sofa and opened the gift box in their hands in unison.
Qin Zhenye took out an antique purple clay pot and said, "Zhang Hao, I took the liberty to visit today, please don't mind." ”
Chu Chen took out a new set of teacups: "We are here uninvited today, don't you mind, congratulations on your housewarming!" ”
Zhang Hao hurriedly excused himself and said: "The two seniors came to the door, and today is already full of brilliance, how can I be embarrassed to accept the gifts of the two again?" ”
Qin Zhenye waved his hand and said, "Don't shirk, just be careful." ”
"That's right, it's not a valuable object, Zhang Hao, you can accept it." Chu Chen said with a smile, "But Qin Lao's pot has some origins, I don't know if you can see it?" ”
"Then thank you Elder Qin and Brother Chu!" Zhang Hao said, "But I really don't know anything about teapot antiques, so I don't dare to say anything, and I ask Qin Lao to solve my doubts." ”
"Well, knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, and knowing is knowing!" Qin Zhenye smiled and said, "This is a purple clay pot from the late Qing Dynasty, which is in relatively good condition and can be used as an ornament." ”
In fact, when he chose such a purple clay pot as a gift, he did save two points to test Zhang Hao's thoughts.
At present, most of the antique purple clay pots circulating on the market are from the Republic of China period.
Therefore, when many people see the purple clay pot, even if they can't recognize it, they will subconsciously guess that it is a product of the Republic of China.
Although Zhang Hao couldn't tell the origin of this purple clay pot just now, his realistic attitude still made Qin Zhenye satisfied.
"Thank you, Elder Qin, I've seen a lot of things today." Zhang Hao smiled and accepted the gifts from the two, "Thank you, Brother Chu, you've broken the bank." ”
"You're welcome," Chu Chen smiled and waved his hand, "If you really feel embarrassed, hurry up and let us admire your porcelain,"
Qin Zhenye echoed: "Yes, I also came today for the name of Western Jin Dynasty porcelain. ”
"Okay, please come with me!" Zhang Hao said with a smile, "I prepared refreshments in the living room, how about we taste tea while appreciating porcelain?" ”
Qin Zhenye and the two glanced at each other, and said in unison: "It couldn't be better,"
Zhang Hao was not ambiguous, and immediately led the two to the living room.
And when Qin Zhenye walked to the door of the living room, he was attracted by the paintings on the wall by the way.
