Grand Collection

The next day after Meng Xin came back, she went to Wen's house and brought a cricket jar from Luoyang during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. Xin this cricket pot is covered with blue glaze, decorated with white flowers, and painted with dragon and phoenix patterns, it is exquisite.

Holding the pot, Wen Zhijun showed his canine teeth, "The serious Xuan Kiln cricket pot is the best!"

Kong Xin sat lazily at the table, "Most Xuan kiln pots are blue and white, and blue glaze is really rare. Xiao Meng, now I finally know what you have been busy with for the past half a year."

"Such a superb product, that is, Xiaomeng can accept it." Wen Zhijun was so happy that he could not see his teeth, he shook his head and dropped his book bag. The cricket pot in the kiln is regarded as a rare treasure', this cricket pot is not only rare blue glaze, but also has dragon and phoenix patterns, it must be the pot used by Emperor Xuande, hey, Xiaomeng, how much is it?"

Meng Xin smiled lightly, stretched out six fingers, Wen Zhijun nodded, "It's worth the price, I'll have someone transfer the money to your Gujin Pavilion's account later."

As soon as the warm autumn sun shone, Kong Xin felt drowsy. He half-closed his eyes and gestured to the door, "Master Zhi, I see that the decoration of your house seems to have changed. You really have a lot of time."

"How can I have the spirit? It's my aunt. Didn't the Luo family go bankrupt? The house was sold, so my mother asked my aunt to move in, and she tidied up the house when she had nothing to do."

Kong Xin came to his senses all of a sudden, "Then Luo Zigeng moved here too?"

"He didn't move here. It's too far away from the school. He lives on campus." Wen Zhijun played with the cricket pot and looked up at him suddenly, "What's your expression?"

Kong Xin stroked his chin, "Your cousin is quite handsome."

Wen Zhijun glared at him, and when he was about to speak, Kong Xin immediately raised his hands, "Don't educate me, I know how to measure, I didn't intend to touch your cousin, understand?"

"If you dare to touch him, I'll stab you to death!" Wen Zhijun gritted his teeth.

Kong Xin laughed loudly, "Hey, if you want to stab me, you have to take good care of yourself first. As you are doing now, you can't stop cutting my neck even after I wash it clean."

Wen Zhijun was so angry that he couldn't breathe and almost slapped him. Meng Xin hurriedly smoothed his chest and said angrily, "Kong Xin, you will die with that mouth sooner or later!"

"Hey, Zhijun, are you okay?" Kong Xin lacked confidence. He and Wen Zhijun had played together since they were young, and never thought that Wen Zhijun would be so angry. Just a word, he became so angry. Shui, "Hey, hey, you drink saliva, what do you care about with my cheap mouth? Be good..."

Wen Zhijun was laughed at by him again, "Get out, don't pollute the air in my house here!"

"Hey!" Just as Kong Xin was about to fight back, his cell phone rang suddenly. He took it out to look at it, and was immediately amused. He turned around and winked at the two of them, and walked to the balcony with the cell phone, "Hello?"

Luo Zigeng: "Brother Kong, are you free? I have something here that I would like to ask you to help."

Of course there is!Kong Xin thought that with Ronaldinho’s handsome face, brother, I’ll make time if I don’t have time, but he doesn’t intend to show his ugly face right now, so he paused for a few seconds pretending to be hesitant. , "Well, not today, tomorrow morning, eight o'clock, in my shop, how about it?"

"Okay," Luo Zigeng readily agreed, "Last time I asked you to have breakfast but it didn't work, so I'll make it up tomorrow morning!"

"Hey, then I'm going to the Braised Cuisine Building."

Luo Zigeng laughed, "No problem."

A warm laugh came from the phone, and Kong Xin suddenly felt very comfortable in his heart, "Then it's settled, if you let me go, I will turn against you."

Luo Zigeng is different from everyone around him, Meng Xin, Wen Zhijun, Ji Kai...all of them are human beings with insight into the world, they can turn thousands of calculations in their minds with a frown and a smile, and Luo Zigeng is too well protected Suddenly, he bumped into this bizarre world of flowers and flowers, and his ignorance made Kong Xin scratch his ears and cheeks.

Although he can't be lured into bed for a while, but it's very enjoyable to make a friend for a while.

Kong Xintian got up before dawn for the breakfast at the Braised Cuisine Building, because the Antique Street opened early, and he had to go around the street even if he had an appointment. If he didn’t see anything he was interested in, he turned around. Went to the Stew Building.

Stewed Cuisine House contains the essence of Jinling snacks, exquisite craftsmanship, exquisite materials, and unique flavor. Kong Xin has not eaten enough after eating for 26 years. He raised his leg and stepped into the lobby. When he squinted, he saw Luo Zigeng sitting by the window , dressed in the morning light, the facial features... Absolutely!

"Boss Kong!" The waiter greeted him and smiled familiarly, "The private room upstairs?"

"No," Kong Xin smiled like a cat ready to steal something, and pointed at Luo Zigeng, "There is an appointment."

The two sat down, Kong Xin didn't even look at the menu, and turned his mouth up and down to the waiter, "Duck oil shortbread, beef pot stickers, Yuhua glutinous rice balls, spiced beans, chestnut cakes, plum blossom cakes, Kaiyang dried shreds, crab roe shumai, sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root, Soup buns in chicken broth, and two bowls of sweet-scented osmanthus wine to make small yuanxiao."

"Please wait a moment," the waiter left briskly.

Luo Zigeng poured tea for Kong Xin and smiled happily, "I just found out today that you are talking about cross talk."

Kong Xin laughed loudly, pinching the cup, "There are many things you don't know."

Jiangnan snacks pay attention to eating small □, Yingqing lotus cups, sweet white porcelain plates, green Yuhua glutinous rice balls, golden duck oil shortbread, piled up on the table bustlingly.

Kong Xin looked in front of the mirror for a long time before going out. He has a good figure, wide shoulders and thin waist. He is wearing a bright and restrained black shirt. When he bows his head to drink soup, his sexy collarbone is faintly visible. He is exquisite and beautiful!

Luo Zigeng raised his head and was talking and laughing, his eyes suddenly met, and his heart trembled suddenly, he was already slightly drunk before the wine was tasted.

Kong Xin asked with a smile, "You haven't eaten here often, have you?"

"Yeah, it's too far away from my previous home, so there's no need to travel all the way here to eat. It's my first time here today."

The duck oil shortbread was delicious, crispy but not broken, oily but not greasy. Kong Xin ate it very happily and said happily, "Then you will suffer a big loss. The time-honored brand of Braised Cuilou for decades, when my grandfather was alive My son often brings me here, he is here to help people, and I eat snacks next to him, and I have eaten dim sum for more than 20 years, and it is the most classic in the stewed restaurant."

Luo Zigeng couldn't help but increase his appetite when he saw him eating happily, "Your grandfather is also a collector?"

"At that time, it was not popular to be called a collector, but it was almost the same as being called a player. Kong Changweng, the number one player in Nanjing! That is a true collector. We are now people, and we can't catch up with flattery."

The two of them went back to Antique Street together after dinner. The Kong family had a shop on the street with three floors and an area of ​​more than 700 square meters. They are all just escrow, which is the foundation of the Kong family.

Luo Zigeng stopped and raised his head. The three Han official scripts in "Ancient and Modern Pavilion" are vivid and spirited, and there is a small couplet on each side: Viewing the present should learn from the past, and the past cannot make the present.

"It's my grandma's calligraphy," Kong Xin raised his eyebrows, "her old man is more skilled at writing."

Meng Xin was trading a piece of ancient jade behind the cash register. When she saw the two of them, she glanced at the schoolbag behind Luo Zigeng and looked at Kong Xin suspiciously.

"Let me introduce, this is Wen Zhijun's aunt, Luo Zigeng," Kong Xin leaned on the counter, and raised his hand to wipe Meng Xin's face, "This is the flower of our ancient and modern pavilion, Meng Xin and Meng Da. son."

Meng Xin slapped his cheap hand away expressionlessly, and looked at Luo Zigeng, "Hello, I heard Zhijun talking about you."

"Hello, Brother Meng," Luo Zigeng went up to greet him, put his schoolbag on the counter and untied it, and took out a flower pot with blue, white, bamboo, stone and plantain patterns about [-] centimeters high.

Kong Xin regained his energy suddenly, grabbed the flower pot with both hands, stroked and observed it carefully, took the magnifying glass from Meng Xin, inspected it inch by inch, put down the flower pot, and looked at Luo Zigeng with a smile in his eyes.

"Did you buy this thing?" Kong Xin looked at him, "Or did your father keep it?"

"I bought it," Luo Zigeng looked at the flower pot with complicated eyes, "Brother Kong, I think this is a Guangxu official kiln, right?"

Kong Xin touched the delicate glaze layer of the flower pot, "This is not only a Guangxu official kiln, but also a high-quality official kiln. It can represent the highest level of official kilns in the late Qing Dynasty. This is the Tihedian system, the imperial porcelain of the Empress Dowager Cixi."

Luo Zigeng's eyes fell on the words "Tihe Dianzhi" on the edge of the basin, "Cixi?"

"The Empress Dowager Cixi broke through the palace wall between the Chuxiu Palace and the Yikun Palace, and changed the apse of the Yikun Palace into the Tihe Hall as a place for drinking tea and meals. Guangxu's selection of concubines was held in the Tihe Hall." Kong Xin took down a plate with blue and white patterns from the museum shelf, and asked Luo Zigeng to touch the enamel on it, "Look, the Guangxu blue and white carcass is thick and clumsy, the glaze is thick and thin, and the white is bluish, but the porcelain of the signature body and the temple The workmanship is exquisite, the carcass is firm and dense, and the glaze color is uniform, which has a higher value in collection."

"How much is it worth?" Luo Zigeng asked.

Kong Xin and Meng Xin looked at each other, then turned to look at him, "Where did you buy this?"

"I bought it at a street stall, seven hundred and eighty."

Kong Xin raised his hand and thumped him on the shoulder, and said excitedly, "My boy, I missed it! You send it to the auction company, and you can add two zeros after it."

Luo Zigeng obviously didn't expect it, and was taken aback, "... so many?"

"However, if you want to send it to the auction company, it won't be so fast to see the living money. You have to auction it at least next spring," Kong Dao said. Compared with it, there is still a higher appreciation space, hold it for two years before selling, and if you are lucky, you can double it again.”

Luo Zigeng slowly stroked the smooth enamel of the flowerpot with both hands, staring at the blue-and-white bamboo and stone on it, silent for a few minutes, and whispered, "If you don't keep it, I'll sell it."

Kong Xin looked at him with deep eyes, this kid is different from his father!

Meng Xin said calmly, "Trust us, you can put it in our store first, and we will contact you to sell it. This is a consignment contract..." He took out a pen and paper from under the counter.

Luo Zigeng looked at Kong Xin, "Then I'll leave it to you."

After signing the consignment contract, Kong Xin looked at Luo Zigeng with a smile, "Boy, you are so lucky to pick up such a big leak as soon as you make a move."

"It's not the first time," Luo Zigeng smiled, "I've done it before and paid tens of thousands of dollars in tuition."

"There are people who pay tuition all their lives and can't find a single mistake," Kong Xin happily embraced him by the shoulders, "Come on, let's go for a stroll in the street, to make my brother happy."
