Chapter 2928 Discussion!

It was supposed to be a simple transaction, but as Wang Yue paid and was about to go home with the tea set, Grandpa Guan, who had been sitting at the alley entrance, suddenly said...

"Xiao Yue, your tea set is fake!"

Wang Yue rarely spoke to Grandpa Guan, mainly because the old man was not very willing to talk to others, but he particularly liked Han Chunming.

Wang Yue dealt with Han Chunming and Cheng Jianjun, so he didn't pay much attention to Grandpa Guan.

Now that Grandpa Guan had taken the initiative to remind him, Wang Yue was very curious about why Grandpa Guan was talking to him!

Wang Yue pondered for a moment and thought it might be related to a multi-speed bicycle, but he wasn't quite sure, so he simply asked, "Sir, why didn't you remind me when I was paying? What's the point of reminding me now?"

Grandpa Guan shook his head and said, "Every profession has its own rules. I am not forbidden to speak while you are discussing this!"

Seeing that Grandpa Guan was being so patient today, Wang Yue didn't think the old man was being kind. He smiled and asked, "Grandpa Guan, tell me, is it because I want a multi-speed bicycle that you're willing to talk to a junior like me?"

Grandpa Guan was surprised by Wang Yue's quick reaction. He couldn't help but laugh, but after laughing, he still didn't admit it. Instead, he asked curiously, "You're so smart, you should have been able to tell that this tea set is fake. Why did you still buy it?"

Wang Yue glanced at the tea set in his hand, shook his head, and said, "I'm not sure if it's real or fake. It just looks nice, doesn't it? Anyway, it's just for making tea. As long as it works, isn't that enough?"

Grandpa Guan shook his head and said, "Although tea is mainly made of tea leaves and water, if the teaware is not good, the taste will be worse. Moreover, some teaware contains unhealthy materials because of the clay used before firing, which is actually bad for your health."

Wang Yue had always been in contact with good people and really didn't know anything about this before. It seems he really needs to study it.

Wang Yue already found this world quite boring, so he decided to learn something new. He looked at Grandpa Guan and said, "Grandpa Guan, you teach me about antiques, and I'll assemble a bicycle for Guan Xiaoguan. You only need to pay the cost price!"

Grandpa Guan looked at Wang Yue with appreciation and immediately said with a smile, "I heard that the bicycles you sell are all 500 yuan each, so I'll sell mine for 500 yuan too. But yours is better looking; yours is really too ugly!"

Wang Yue smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll definitely design it to be beautiful. I'll bring the car to you to learn about antiques later!"

Grandpa Guan took out a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it to Wang Yue, saying, "I can't let you pay for it yourself, you can keep it!"

Wang Yue didn't stand on ceremony. After taking the money, he said a few words to Grandpa Guan and went straight home. He put the tea set in a pot to sterilize it, and then picked up a pen and paper to start designing a women's geared car.

Of course, to avoid attracting attention, Wang Yue also designed a mountain bike.

One month later,
Wang Yue rode a women's bicycle with gears to Grandpa Guan's yard.

Guan Xiaoguan immediately fell in love with the bike when she saw it. She came up to Wang Yue with some surprise and asked, "Brother Wang Yue, where did you buy such a beautiful multi-speed bicycle?"

As Guan Xiaoguan said this, she circled the bicycle and Wang Yue a few times, her eyes filled with envy.

Ever since she learned that Wang Xia had gotten a multi-speed bicycle, she had always wanted one of her own, but she knew it was very expensive, so she could only look on with envy.

Wang Yue parked the car and said with a smile, "This was bought for you by Grandpa Guan. It has your name on it, so don't worry about losing it!"

Following Wang Yue's finger, Guan Xiaoguan looked down at the handlebars and immediately saw her name, though it was only in pinyin. She asked in surprise, "When did my grandfather buy this from you? How come I didn't know?"

Wang Yue didn't explain, but instead said seriously, "Don't worry about the time, why don't you ride off to find your friends?"

Guan Xiaoguan immediately steadied the bicycle, but instead of leaving right away, he asked, "Does Xiaoxia have one too?"

"Have!"

Wang Yue walked towards the Guan family's courtyard without looking back.

"Then I'll go find Xiaoxia!"

Guan Xiaoguan immediately rode off on her multi-speed bicycle!

Wang Yue then entered the house and saw Grandpa Guan lying in a rocking chair, his squinted eyes looking as if he were asleep. He wasn't in a hurry and looked around the room.

It has to be said that although Grandpa Guan's house looks very simple, all these things are old items. I don't know how he preserved them.
It's important to know that many old items were destroyed during that upheaval, and some were even stolen. Preserving them is really difficult.

However, considering the connections and relationships Grandpa Guan has in the show, it seems quite normal.

Wang Yue looked around the things in the room for a good half hour without showing any impatience.

Grandpa Guan had opened his eyes at some point and was watching Wang Yue as he looked around the things in his room.

Wang Yue's gaze and expression were strangely calm, showing neither envy nor disdain, as if he were strolling through a park admiring the scenery. "Xiao Yue, can you tell what's going on here?"

Grandpa Guan originally started talking to Wang Yue in order to get a multi-speed bicycle for his granddaughter, but after getting to know him, he appreciated him even more.

If Han Chunming has an innate sensitivity and talent for antiques, his only shortcoming is that he is like a greedy fox, only consuming and never spitting out good things, always wanting to take them away.

But the feeling that Wang Yue gave Grandpa Guan was that he didn't care about these things at all.

Grandpa Guan knew in his heart that someone like Wang Yue was more suited to studying antiques, while Han Chunming was more suited to being a private collector.

Grandpa Guan thought it would be a good idea to teach Wang Yue some more, but before that, he wanted to see if Wang Yue had any talent.

So, Grandpa Guan couldn't help but ask, which was actually a test to see if Wang Yue was qualified.

Although Wang Yue didn't study antiques, he was very knowledgeable about feng shui and was good at observing qi. Some old items could even faintly produce their own qi.

This kind of aura is mostly caused by the environment one was in before, and it will also have some impact on the people one gets along with in the future.

This is why some people develop illnesses after unintentionally buying and wearing items meant for burial.

Looking at the items in Grandpa Guan's possessions, Wang Yue could tell they were all old objects, so he calmly said...

"The things here are all quite good, old man. Although I can't tell the exact age, each item is quite old."

Grandpa Guan was not satisfied with the answer. Instead, he asked seriously, "What you said sounds like flattery. Could you elaborate?"

Wang Yue never expected that learning to identify antiques would require an exam, so he could only answer seriously.

So Wang Yue walked over to Grandpa Guan, patted the chair Grandpa Guan was sitting on, and said with a smile,

"Although your chair looks like it's made of ordinary nanmu wood, it looks to me like golden nanmu wood. In ancient times, only high-ranking officials or members of the royal family would have the opportunity to use this kind of material."

Grandpa Guan was very satisfied with Wang Yue's answer. He smiled and said, "That's great! You can even recognize Phoebe zhennan wood, so it's much easier for you to learn this."

Wang Yue glanced at Grandpa Guan with a smug look before smiling and saying, "That's right. When I look at these items, I can sense that the new items are somewhat different from the old ones, but I can't quite explain it."

Grandpa Guan immediately understood, but he still asked with some curiosity, "If that's the case, you should be able to tell that the tea set you bought earlier was from the last ten or twenty years ago, so why did you give him three yuan?"

Wang Yue smiled and said, "That's right. I feel that the same thing will produce different feelings when used by different people. Although that tea set doesn't look very old, the people who used it before may have been extraordinary."

I can't quite explain the feeling, but I felt very comfortable, so I bought it!

Wang Yue was not lying about this point!

There's a saying that people nurture jade and jade nurtures people, and this applies to other objects as well.

However, compared to jade, jade is more compatible with people, so it takes longer to develop its natural beauty.

However, the same applies to other items; they can all be nurtured, although the nurturing process might be slower than usual.

Grandpa Guan has been in contact with antiques for many years, so of course he knows these things. That's why many people say that furniture affects feng shui!
Actually, it's not the furniture that affects the feng shui, but rather the energy that's cultivated on the furniture that influences the feng shui.

Therefore, Grandpa Guan completely agreed with what Wang Yue said, and said with a smile,

"Xiao Yue, just based on this point alone, you'll be much better at learning to appreciate antiques than others!"
"If you have time, you can come over after get off work every day and chat with the old man for a while. I can also learn how to appraise antiques."

Wang Yue smiled and agreed, then casually picked up a celadon bowl and asked about it.

Grandpa Guan didn't hold back either, explaining everything to Wang Yue in detail, showing him how to determine the age of the bowl based on its color and material.

Wang Yue has an excellent memory; Grandpa Guan only explained it once, and Wang Yue remembered it immediately.

Grandpa Guan is quite old, so it's impossible for him to finish speaking slowly. Fortunately, Wang Yue has a good memory, so he can speak quite clearly.

In addition, any antique is related to the national conditions of the era in which it was made. Although Wang Yue has been in school for many years and does not remember everything, he can still talk about it.
