Chapter 206: Birthday Present
In the evening, He Liuye returned home.
When I entered the living room, I saw the pyramid-shaped strawberries on the crystal plate on the table, and I was slightly stunned.
Secretary Jin explained: "Miss Xiao and Mr. Xie have been here today. This is the new strawberry 'Hongyan' she planted this year, and she specially sent it to you. β
The sixth master tasted one with an unknown expression, his mouth seemed to flow like a clear spring, there was a fragrance on his face, and the whole fruit was sweet and fruity, which was better than last year's Zhang Ji.
With a doting smile on his face, he said to himself, "She's a mouse that fell into the rice tank." β
Secretary Jin didn't know who she was in the mouth of the sixth master. He didn't dare to ask. only said: "Xiang Xian also came this morning." β
The sixth master was stunned: "He came to me?" That's a rarity. β
Secretary Jin smiled: "He said that he found a treasure in the capital Panjiayuan." It's on the table in your study. He also said that if you like it, you can keep it. If you don't like it, give it back to him. β
The sixth master imagined his son's expression when he said this, clapped his hands and smiled: "Let's go, take a look." β
The finely carved rosewood box is only one circle larger than the palm of your hand.
On the black velvet cushion inside the box, there is a small bowl of azure six-petal lotus flowers.
The beauty of azure is like washing, and the shape is simple and elegant. He Liuye's smile froze immediately. After exchanging an incredulous look with Secretary Jin, he took out a pair of fine cotton white gloves from the drawer and put them on, carefully took out the small bowl and observed it closely.
"Ru porcelainβ" He Liuye's voice was full of boundless emptiness.
Secretary Kim's voice was astringent: "Real? β
The authenticity of all Chinese Ru porcelain can also be counted on your fingers. How did the young master find this lost pearl? If true, the value is immeasurable.
He Liuye took a magnifying glass and looked at it for half an hour, then raised his head, his eyes surging with excitement: "Look at this color, this ice pattern." Most of the time it's genuine. β
Install the latest version. γ
Secretary Kim was cautious. "I heard that experts have recently cracked the firing process of Ru porcelain. Will it be ......"
He Liuye snorted: "That kid is not stupid enough to be on this." Paused, "To be on the safe side." You send it for testing. β
Secretary Jin nodded: "I'll do it immediately." β
A week later, the testing center issued a certificate. The porcelain lotus bowl of the sixth master proves to be genuine in the Northern Song Dynasty.
He Liuye has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is old and treacherous. He was still not at ease, so he specially called He Xiangxian to ask about the origin of the bowl.
He Xiangxian was impatient: "When I went to the capital to play, I met in Panjiayuan." β
"Which store?"
"No shop. Goods on the stalls. β
He Liuye frowned: "Then how much did you spend?" β
He Xiangxian rolled his eyes: "You don't care how much money I spend." β
The sixth master glared, and Secretary Jin hurriedly smiled and interrupted: "Xiang Xian." There are such good goods on the stall, why is no one robbing you? β
He Xiangxian crossed his legs and said, "Recently, there are such goods everywhere in Panjiayuan's shop. There are all kinds of styles. The offer is not cheap. I walked around for a long time, and this little bowl caught my eye. It feels like it's very different from those other glamorous sluts. So I bought it. β
The sixth master was incredulous: "You picked this out of a bunch of fakes?" β
He Xiangxian tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Yes." Later, I asked someone to inquire. At the beginning of this year, our country has resumed the production of Ru porcelain. These handicrafts are the first shipments to leave the factory. It's also of some value. Aren't you going to celebrate your 60th birthday, so I brought you one? β
The sixth master and Secretary Jin looked at each other.
He Xiangxian twisted his eyebrows: "What's wrong?" β
Secretary Kim handed him the test certificate.
He Gongzi glanced at it: "What the hell-ah-" Meng's eyes widened, and his throat made two cooing noises as if someone was choking. Bang bounced off the couch, "Antique? Northern Song Dynasty? How is this possible?! β
He glared at his father, "You two joined forces to coax me, right?" β
The sixth master said angrily and with a smile: "We are not so idle." β
He Gongzi's face was bloody, and he asked Secretary Jin repeatedly: "Impossible." Will there be a problem with your testing place? β
Secretary Jin explained: "The inspector took a little debris from the bottom of the bottle for testing, which is indeed something from the Northern Song Dynasty. β
He Gongzi opened his mouth wide and closed it again. Eyes staring at the small bowl glowing: I didn't have such good luck opening stones!
I knew this was the case, so I had to keep it myself. Did his father send this antique?
Alas. Regret not being at the beginning.
What was sent, he didn't have the face to come back. I had to reluctantly put it back in the box.
"The whole Ru porcelain is genuine, then you have to hide it."
The sixth master stared at the exquisite porcelain bowl thoughtfully.
I always feel a little uneasy in my heart.
A bunch of imitations mixed with the real thing. So where did the real thing come from?
The bottom of the porcelain bowl also does not have the seal of the official kiln, but the quality is comparable to that of the official kiln.
Weird, where did it come from?
The sixth master waved his hand and asked Secretary Jin to put away the porcelain bowl.
"That's right." He looked at his son, "You've been running to BJ lately. For what? β
He Xiangxian's face did not change: "I want to open a shopping mall in BJ." Picking the ground. β
The sixth master was stunned. Xiang Xian has always been incompatible with himself because of his mother's affairs. Otherwise, I wouldn't buy a handicraft as a gift for myself. In the years since graduating from college, in addition to running the gambling business, the rest of the time is eating, drinking and having fun, and now he finally wants to do the right thing?
His eyebrows widened.
"Oh. I chose the place to say hello to Secretary Kim. Let him slap his eyes. β
He Xiangxian shrugged disappreciatively: "-Okay." β

Ling Mei, who returned to Nanping, immediately took the size of the sixth master to Tan Yuan.
Qin Hua and the others put down their work and began to customize the dress for the sixth master's sixtieth birthday.
In the end, two sets of suits and improved Tang costumes were given, and six styles were handed over to Ling Mei to choose.
Ling Mei brought the drawings to Aunt Tan.
Aunt Tan cut a cake for her, glanced at the drawings, and said with disgust: "Old man's clothes, let me choose?" β
Ling Mei smiled: "In the high-end clothing of that era, I can't think of anyone else who can help me except you." Aunt Tan, help me take a look. β
Tan Yueqiu was so entangled by her that she couldn't do anything. I had to put on my glasses and look at the drawings carefully.
After a while, I picked out a black and gold improved Tang robe.
"They're old-fashioned. Let them usually wear suits to deal with friends in the business field. On occasions like family dinners, they still like traditional costumes. "Aunt Tan removed the suit." Besides, custom suits are comparable to the craftsmanship of foreigners? β
Ling Mei stuffed a cake in her mouth and praised with a smile: "Aunt Tan is high." β
Aunt Tan picked among the three Tang costumes for a while and asked, "How is his figure?" Are you fat? β
Ling Mei was stunned. Said quietly: "Not fat." It's pretty well maintained. β
Aunt Tan didn't notice her slip of the tongue at all, and picked out a robe embroidered with gold on a black background: "Then this robe." β
Ling Mei smiled: "I also like this one the most." Okay, I'll let the masters hurry up. β
Aunt Tan frowned and asked, "The embroidery on this dress is so many and complicated, are you in time?" β
Ling Mei: I didn't even say what month his birthday was, so I was worried that I wouldn't have time to catch up with work. It turns out that He Liuye and you are really old acquaintances.
"I'm asking a friend I know to help with embroidery."
Aunt Tan nodded. Suddenly got up: "I have something that you just need to use." β
Ling Mei looked at her back, and the doubts that lingered in her heart were completely solved.
She casually said to Aunt Tan that she wanted to open the store opposite Pierre Cardin, and Xie Genbao did it without much effort. They rented the sixth master's shop, and those who became the ones protected by the sixth master. Ling Mei thought she was lucky, but it turned out that Aunt Tan was all behind her back to help her.
Her heart was hot, and the heat came to her eyes.
