Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps

When it was time to set off, Yuanni realized that Xiangyuanzhai was actually at the foot of Maple Leaf Mountain. If it were autumn, she would be able to see red leaves all over the mountain. It was really beautiful, surrounded by mountains and rivers.

“Why is such a good place given to overseas Chinese?”

"This house was not given to Qi Guangyuan. It was just for cultural exchange and for him to borrow temporarily." Dr. Hou took a breath and began to educate Yuanni.

Qi Guangyuan is the owner of Xiangyuanzhai. It is said that his true identity is a patriotic overseas Chinese. He came back as soon as the policy was relaxed.

There is a row of small buildings at the foot of Maple Leaf Mountain, each with its own style. A lot of thought was put into the design. According to old doctor Hou, these houses are all owned by the public.

Despite the title of cultural exchange, Qi Guangyuan still didn't dare to make anything big. There was no nameplate on the small building he occupied, and there were no additional decorations. It was extremely low-key.

According to Dr. Hou, Qi Guangyuan has a lot of money.

The reason why he worked so hard to run Xiangyuan Zhai was mainly because he liked antiques and looking at those old gadgets, so he thought of a way to let everyone take good things and trade them under his nose.

There are currently only two carbon [-] detectors in the city, one of which is in Qi Guangyuan's Maple Leaf Mountain villa.

Yuan Ni felt that with Qi Guangyuan’s style, in future generations, there would be no way he would be able to seal an antique enthusiast.

Someone was guarding the door of the villa. Old Doctor Hou took out the invitation he had prepared and showed it before he let him go.

Most places require a ticket to buy cloth, so Qi Guangyuan is very cautious. He only accepts regular customers and customers with guarantees, and does not want to spread the news of private reselling of antiques.

From the outside, the villa looks like a two-story building. After entering, you realize that there is a whole other world.

The small two-story building in the front is just a facade, with a large courtyard in the middle and a courtyard room connected to the back.

The real Xiangyuanzhai is in the backyard.

There are rockeries, small bridges, and running water in the courtyard. There are tables and chairs in the pavilion, but the weather is too cold, so there are no people outside.

When several people came in, a young man in a Chinese tunic suit came out to greet them. According to old doctor Hou, this was a guy from Xiangyuanzhai.

The waiter was very capable. After asking clearly whether they were here to challenge Tom, he let them go directly into the main room.

"Tom hasn't come yet, but several of our own people have already arrived. They all say they want to compete with the foreign devils."

"Several people are here, who comes first?"

"You can discuss among yourselves. If everyone rushes to get in, then we will draw lots."

This is fair, anyway, everyone's ultimate goal is to kill Tom's majesty. Whoever is more skilled will be recommended to go first. If they are not convinced by each other, then draw lots.

Opening the cotton curtain at the door, a burst of hot air hit my face.

Because of the special land boundary, the house is equipped with heating and has a cement floor. There is no large iron stove common in the north, so it is extremely clean and tidy.

There is a circle of sofas placed near the window, and in the center is an Eight Immortals table. The front and back of the Eight Immortals table are completely empty.

There were already many people sitting and chatting in the room. When they saw new people coming in, everyone looked over.

Yuan Nier glanced at these people and was surprised to find that her newly recognized uncle Geng Xiangbei was also sitting on the sofa.

He was covering his mouth with a handkerchief and coughing violently. When he saw Yuan Ni, he was so surprised that he couldn't cough anymore.

Yuan Ni and Gu Chao went to say hello, and everyone naturally sat together.

Geng Xiangbei was not in good health, but he spoke and behaved very generously. He introduced Yuan Ni to his companions, saying that this was the granddaughter recognized by Mrs. Geng and that he should be called uncle. "Ni'er is a junior, so everyone should help take care of her." .”

Geng Xiangbei's companion naturally nodded repeatedly.

After a few pleasantries, Geng Xiangbei asked Yuanni, "I'm going to bet with Tom today, why are you here?"

"I also want to bet with him."

Geng Xiangbei had heard about Yuan Ni's abilities and was not surprised, but his two companions were very surprised.

In their eyes, Yuanni is just a yellow-haired little girl. How can such a person be qualified to bet against Tom?

"What treasure do you have, little girl? Is it for the dowry? Don't you cry when you lose?" Geng Xiangbei's companion joked.

"My niece has very good eyesight, better than me." Geng Xiangbei said seriously.

Old lady Geng was dancing with her long sleeves, and old man Geng had been immersed in the antique industry for many years, but his children were incompetent. Geng Meilan was not a good character, while Geng Xiangbei was good at looking at antiques, but not tactful enough in his behavior.

Fortunately, all acquaintances knew his temperament and didn't take it too seriously. They turned to Yuan Ni and said, "Niece, your uncle brought Su Dongpo's inkstone. What kind of treasure are you bringing? Which one of you will go first?"

Geng Xiangbei opened the baggage he carried with him and uncovered a piece of brocade, revealing a simple inkstone. This was the Mingcong Xing inkstone that Su Dongpo had used.

The bottom of the inkstone reveals natural stone decoration, dotted with stars, just like the stars in the night sky.

Yuan Ni touched it, and her tentacles were hot. There was no doubt that this was a real inkstone that Su Dongpo had used.

In terms of historical and cultural value, this thing is comparable to Yuan blue and white.

She smiled slightly and took out the celadon Buddha statue.

Geng Xiangbei's eyes lit up when he looked at it. Although the value of antiques is not determined by their size, the larger the exquisitely made porcelain, the more valuable it is under the same conditions.

Geng Xiangbei's two companions also noticed it, "Is this from the Song Dynasty?"

Judging from the decoration and manner of the Buddha statue, it is the style of the Song Dynasty, and the Buddha statue is particularly exquisite and ingenious. Only the people of the Song Dynasty who worshiped Buddhism would spend so much time making such a large Buddha statue with the enthusiasm of religious worship.

Geng Xiangbei studied the Buddha statue over and over again, "It's from the Song Dynasty, but it's a little too new."

His companion laughed and said, "If it came from that place and hasn't seen the light of day all year round, it would be strange if it wasn't new."

Everyone is knowledgeable and knows that this person is talking about underworld wares. If the porcelain excavated from the ancient tomb is properly preserved and has not been stained by soil, then each piece will be as good as new.

After turning over and over to study, Geng Xiangbei asked Yuanni, "How good is your eyesight?"

"It's almost a sure thing."

Geng Xiangbei's two companions couldn't help but want to laugh. This little girl didn't know how big the world was, and she was so good at it.

Seeing that she was Geng Xiangbei's niece, the two decided to let Yuanni take charge. For such a young person, it would be beneficial to lose something and learn a lesson.

Geng Xiangbei was serious, he pondered for a moment, "According to Mom, your eyesight is indeed better than mine, and you will be the first to compete later.

If you can win, take this Su Dongpo inkstone as a lottery and take another gamble. "

Yuanni nodded, "No problem."

If she were the first to challenge, she would use reverse thinking to win first. Geng Xiangbei's piece was a real antique. If she used it as a lottery ticket, she might be able to trick Tom again.

Amid the surprised looks of his two companions, Geng Xiangbei stood up and went to talk to the other two collectors.

I heard that Yuanni was the god-granddaughter of Mrs. Geng and was willing to be the first to compete on stage. The other two collectors readily agreed.

why?Yuanni is young and is a transparent and unknown person in the circle.

If she wins, she can slap Tom in the face hard. Tom is like this, and even the children in the Chinese antique circle can't win. What kind of arena is there?

It doesn't matter if you lose, just say that the children at home are ignorant and practice your skills. In this way, you can advance, attack, retreat and defend, which actually saves face.

As soon as the collectors reached a consensus and decided to join forces to advance and retreat together, the cotton curtain was opened, and a tall man with yellow hair walked in.

Tom is here...
