Chapter 661: Exchange and Signing
Desire is the driving force of human progress.
Ever since he saw the "Kuaixue Tang Fati" in such good condition, Chen Mingliang's whole person was not good, he was itchy and couldn't sleep.
Even with it, his relationship with the little golden girl is a lot closer.
Chen Mingliang not only knew that Xiaojin's emotional state was single, but also knew that Jin Chen was in his junior year this year, and he was currently in the confused period of his career, and he didn't know whether to enter the song and dance troupe or the entertainment industry.
Chen Mingliang did not give advice, he has always believed that everyone's fate should be their own decision, and he is not someone else's life mentor.
Moreover, the tea girl "Tingting" also encountered the same situation, she is also single, and she is also in a confused period of life.
"Tingting" said that she likes to paint, but her family objected, and now she is not happy at all as an administrator in her father's tea factory.
also asked Chen Mingliang what his profession does, Chen Mingliang said that he is a catering, and asked his little sister if he wanted to order a group meal, and gave a preferential price, which was delicious.
The little sister is reluctant to order food, but still wants to direct the topic to tea.
She said that she is now spending the Chinese New Year in the mountains with her grandparents, and the family has a tea garden, and the air is good.
Chen Mingliang said that it was really good, this is not a New Year's Day, do you want to help your grandparents order a meal, and do your filial piety.
The little girl who sells tea ignores him.
β¦β¦
People are still quite strange sometimes, once there is no pursuit, there are almost nothing that Chen Mingliang cares about too much.
In addition to his wife and unborn children, he also retained his little hobby of collecting.
Young and rich and can't squander wantonly, the whole life is boring and tight.
So far, Chen Mingliang has spent the most money for himself, except for transportation, probably to collect, as long as the things are good enough, there are few things he doesn't collect.
In the collection circle, there is a term with a high occurrence rate, called "picking up leaks".
Chen Mingliang has been collecting for so many years, and he has not "picked up" any leaks.
Most of them are sold to him at a "high price" after being "picked up" by others, and there are even a few professional brokers who collect things specifically for him.
Chen Mingliang is the "big golden pig" behind many antique experts, a legendary figure who is stupid and has a lot of money.
However, we must look at things with the eyes of development.
The antiques that Chen Mingliang collected seven or eight years ago now have more than doubled in price.
After so many years of edification, Chen Mingming's collection level has improved rapidly, after all, the things he sees and plays with on weekdays are real things, and many imitations and fakes can be seen at a glance.
Chen Mingming's collection is no less than Ma Dudu, and the treasures are also very impressive.
The next day is the first day of the new year.
It's impossible to get up before dawn, but Chen Mingliang has always had the habit of getting up early.
In the morning, I had breakfast with my mother and brother, which was simple and traditional, dumplings with pork and cabbage, and flower cakes.
called all kinds of people to wait for the New Year, and exchanged red envelopes with his mother, and when he saw that it was still early, Chen Mingliang went back to his house to sleep again.
There are also benefits to celebrating the New Year in Quancheng, so you don't have to kowtow everywhere to greet the New Year.
However, it's a bit boring to be idle.
Chen Mingliang was not in the mood to take out pen, ink, paper and inkstone to practice calligraphy, and he couldn't put down the book in his heart.
In fact, Chen Mingliang also has a few rubbings of "Kuaixuetang Fa Ti" in his hand, most of which are from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.
For a veteran Tibetan friend, when you meet something good, you must see it.
Just after nine o'clock, Chen Mingliang couldn't help it.
He called Jin Chen directly: "Where do you live?" I want to go to your house as a guest, I don't know if it's inconvenient? β
The little girl was pleasantly surprised: "Convenient! Convenient! Welcome, warm welcome! I'll tell my parents right away, when are you coming? β
"Right now!"
"Okay! I'll be waiting for you downstairs! β
The fish has taken the bait! It worked! Chen Mingliang likes this calligraphy to the extent that he still thinks about it.
Jin Chen was so excited that she almost jumped up, and she quickly told Chen Mingliang's home address.
At this moment, Dad Jin is drinking tea and watching TV in the living room, and Mom Kim is cleaning up things in the kitchen, preparing for the guests the day after tomorrow.
Jin Chen rushed out of the room in a hurry: "Dad, Dad! Chen Mingliang wants to come over! β
"Who? Chen Mingliang? What is your relationship with him? Why did he come here now? Are you coming to our house? β
Can't blame Dad Jin for being suspicious, there are really not many people who come to visit the door on the first day of junior high school, do they really have anything to do with each other? His daughter is good-looking, and there are many people who are worried about her.
"Yes, it's Chen Mingliang who wants to come over as a guest! I took a picture of that note of yours yesterday and sent it to him, and he wanted to come and see it. β
Jin Chen didn't know that her father had thought so much, she felt that she had the opportunity to be able to get into a relationship with Chen Mingliang, and she felt that her dream had come true.
"He's coming to pick up the leak?"
"People are not bad at money, don't you know that he is still a calligrapher? He loves our collection. β
Jin Chen still knows a lot about Chen Mingming's situation, in fact, as long as you pay attention to Chen Mingliang, you know that his calligraphy is good.
"How can there be any real level at a young age, it's hyped up by the media." Daddy Kim didn't believe it.
"If you don't understand it, don't doubt whether other people's achievements are good or not, I want to sign with their company..."
β¦β¦
The spring city on the first day of junior high school is very quiet, and there are no people on the road.

The hardest part of this year's Chinese New Year is the sanitation workers, who had to shovel the snow overnight because of the heavy snow yesterday.
The road is easy to walk, and the car drives very fast.
Jin Chen's community soon arrived.
Seeing the bloated and bouncing little girl, Chen Mingliang had to sigh that it was good to be young.
The community environment is not bad, it is a mid-to-high-end community, after all, Jinchen's parents are dance teachers, the income is quite high, and the family background is naturally okay.
As a guest for the first time, Chen Mingliang still prepared class gifts, which was nothing more than bringing a few bottles of wine and a few boxes of health care products developed by Ren Jing's company from home, so that there was no shortage of gifts.
Jin Chen's family was very enthusiastic, and Chen Mingliang also sat down on someone else's sofa unceremoniously while shouting and taking the liberty.
"Hello Uncle Jin, I read the photo of Jin Chen's Dharma sticker yesterday, I didn't sleep well at night, I just want to see it, but I don't know if Mr. Jin can let me feast my eyes again?"
Chen Mingliang put forward his purpose straight to the point, he didn't covet other people's daughters, he was just greedy for old gold.
Father Jin was ready for a long time, and he quickly took out his ancestral law stickers, a total of five, red sandalwood cover, cloisonnΓ© gold edge, looking at the surface is very luxurious.
Chen Mingliang opened the first album, and the first article in it was indeed "Fast Snow and Sunny Times", and the inside was just as luxurious, with a lot of gold threads used in the framing and decoration alone, and at first glance it was the original rubbing, and there was also Qianlong's "Pen End Creation" seal on it.
Of course, there are a lot of chapters of Brother Hongli, and there are as many as 1,000 of them registered in the register.
There was a foreign auction house that accidentally got a seal of Qianlong, and it appeared in the finale, and the result was a genre, because there were too many of these things.
Not to mention others, Chen Mingliang himself has six seals of Qianlong, and he does not regard them as treasures.
But things are indeed good things, and they are good things during the Qianlong period.
"Good stuff, really good stuff! You know, this seal is in my hand, this is the seal of Emperor Qianlong in his later years, it is really a coincidence. β
Chen Mingliang looked at it for a long time and couldn't put it down.
Everyone knows that Chen Mingming's next meaning is probably to ask if he can cut love.
Dad Jin didn't wait for Chen Mingliang to speak, he took the initiative to start the topic:
"I heard that Mr. Chen is a calligrapher registered with the National Calligraphy Association, can we take a look at your calligraphy?"
Dad Jin didn't say anything else, he just seemed to want to see if Chen Mingliang was in vain.
"Well, you can! Then I'll be ugly. β
Chen Mingliang naturally does not spare his talent, he has this self-confidence and does not rely on this to eat, there is no need to cherish himself.
However, what is slightly embarrassing is that there is no pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home.
There is nowhere to buy it for the New Year.
Fortunately, Lao Jin's colleague and neighbor Lao Wang is a calligraphy enthusiast, and Jin Chen borrowed it from there.
After a while, Jin Chen's house was crowded with people, all of whom came to see Chen Mingliang write.
Fortunately, there was no hype that Chen Mingliang was here, otherwise the living room of Jin Chen's house might not fit in.
When the paper arrives, there are several kinds, raw and cooked Xuan batik paper are available, different papers have different uses, some write large characters, some write small letters.
Chen Mingliang chose batik paper, and he wrote a poem by Zhu Xi with a stroke of his pen:
"Half an acre of square pond opened,
The sky and clouds and shadows wander together.
Ask the canal to be as clear as promised,
for a source of living water."
Lao Jin didn't know calligraphy, he only thought the writing was good.
Lao Wang is an expert, Chen Mingming's hand is very Zhao Mengfu's taste, and his pen power is really good.
"Lao Wang, how is Mr. Chen's calligraphy? I don't understand, I think it's good-looking, can you give a review? β
Lao Wang blushed slightly.
He has always been the pen of the unit, and has always boasted of being a calligraphy expert, after reading Chen Mingming's words, he felt that there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the people, and there is no void under the fame.
Lao Wang felt that he was not qualified to comment, so his attention shifted to those few law stickers.
"Lao Jin, you have such a good copybook, you hide it and don't show it to your old friends, can you cut your love with this copybook, I'll give you 50,000 copies, oh no, 100,000 copies, what do you think?"
"No, Lao Wang, this is my family's ancestral, and now I am ready to give it to Mr. Chen Mingliang."
"How much?"
"Send!"
"Given away for nothing?"
"Hmm."
Chen Mingliang was a little stunned.
Dad Jin explained: "Mr. Chen, I heard that you have opened an entertainment company in the capital, the reputation is very good, my family Chenchen also likes to perform, our family is just this one daughter, can you let her sign in to your company, these few law stickers, I should entrust you to take care of her meeting gift." β
That's what it meant.
Signing a contract is a trivial matter, but asking for someone else's heirloom for nothing is not Chen Mingming's style.
"Uncle Jin, there is no problem with signing Jinchen, but your law sticker is worth a lot of money, this is the original stone extension of the inner mansion during the Qianlong period, and the small leaf red sandalwood cover should be a treasure for the emperor's own use or as a reward to Prince Baylor, I can't ask for it in vain."
"But we don't have anything else to do with it, for nothing..."
Father Jin's meaning is obvious, he hopes that Jin Chen can be taken care of.
"That's it, I won't give you any money, it's too vulgar to talk about money, I'll send a house directly to Jin Chen, hang it in her name, you can be regarded as having a place to live in the capital, and you won't lose money on the house in the third ring."
