Chapter 0059: Choice
After calling Liu Chuan, Zhuang Rui stood at the entrance of the City Temple Antique City, waiting for about half an hour or so, the sky has gradually darkened, just when Zhuang Rui waited a little impatient, Liu Chuan drove a Hummer over.
The feeling of looking at the Hummer from outside and sitting inside is completely different, when the Hummer drove over from a distance, it was like a bulldozer, overbearing, when the car stopped in front of Zhuang Rui, the envious gazes of the crowd fell on Zhuang Rui.
“Why did you come so slowly! Didn’t you say we would leave from Hefei at four or five? Could it be that your kid really did that in the hotel?”
Zhuang Rui pull open the door, sat on the passenger side, the hands of the bamboo rattan box gently put behind the seat, although I know that these root carvings are not afraid to fall, but there is a valuable object inside, Zhuang Rui’s action is inevitably gentle for a few minutes, as if people know that diamonds are one of the world’s hardest items, but whoever holds that thing, will be careful to put it gently.
“Roll aside, change you to drive the night car try, not rest well, buddy can hold up at night? Let’s first find a place to eat, and then directly on the highway, right, wood, you that box inside what treasure ah! So careful, take it out and see, open your eyes to your buddy.”
Liu Chuan started the car while fighting with Zhuang Rui, after Zhuang Rui’s these several times after picking up leaks, and now he has some blind faith in Zhuang Rui, it seems that this buddy a shot, you can find the treasure in general, Wang Shizhen’s manuscript as is, three rivers Liu’s grasshopper gourd as is, can not help but not believe Liu Chuan.
“Bought a few root carvings, there is one should be a rosewood plaything, I give you ah! Today encountered a two ghosts ……”
Zhuang Rui colorful things that happen in the antique city, described to Liu Chuan, began to say that the fake foreign devils smashed people stalls, Liu Chuan gas almost stepped on the brakes, turned back to find the two ghosts of the translation of the trouble, and then heard Zhuang Rui said that the two ghosts took a punch and lost four thousand dollars, which only cursed and drove the car to the place where two people at noon to eat.
“So, the rosewood root carving in that box can be worth a few hundred thousand dollars? Damn, with that thing, even if we run a trip for nothing this time, it’s worth it! I said when did your kid become a fiery eye ah!”
The two of them sat in the box, Liu Chuan’s eyes widened with an unbelievable expression.
“The specific price I do not know, but it should be more expensive than that Three Rivers Liu’s gourd, rosewood but inch sandalwood inch gold, not to mention that that foot has palm size, the character preservation is also quite good, it should be the price will not be low.”
Zhuang Rui heard the four words of fire eyes, the heart suddenly jumped a bit, although I know that this coarse goods is a mouth, also can not help but some panic, and quickly made a pair of lecturing tone, said: “rogue, not I say you, you in the antique market also hang out for several years, how do not follow the Lu shopkeeper them to learn some things ah! You know from the Yellow Emperor to now, inherited a few thousand years down, is to find an ancient people with a toilet, that is also enough for you to eat a few years.”
“I yuck! You only take the toilet to eat it, buddy is not that material, I also wanted to enter this line before, but this pair of eyes to see what all seem to be true, Lu old man said I am a light bulb eyes, specializing in illuminating other people, commonly known as the kaiju, damn, this old man is really lack of morality ……”
Liu Chuan said indignantly, amused Zhuang Rui laughed and almost turned over from the chair, this old man Lu is really funny, but the description of Liu Chuan is indeed very apt, this brother commits stupidity, it is very good to fool, he wants to really go to collect antiques, I’m afraid that it is not as good as Yang Wei his father!
“But wood, I see you can eat this line of work, not to mention, on the basis of your luck, I’m afraid no one can match, antique city in and out every day at least a few tens of thousands of people, how is this good thing fell into your hands, how about it, the broken job in the Middle Sea resigned, come to Pangcheng to open a store of curiosities it! We also have a buddy together to take care of is not.”
Liu Chuan turn of phrase, pulled to Zhuang Rui, in his opinion, with Zhuang Rui now millions of family, there is no need to go to work for someone else, take a few hundred thousand out, open an antique store, there are Song Jun they take care of, how is also much stronger than work.
“Open an antique store?”
Zhuang Rui heart moved a bit, although he now does have money, but the past few days is really tense, there is no time for him to experience the feeling of a million dollars, and now listen to Liu Chuan so much, he is really some of the heart, to their own capital, even if it is about to be promoted to the manager of the pawnshop, the monthly salary of a few thousand dollars of the work, it seems to be not so important.
However, after weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Zhuang Rui still shook his head, the work is indeed not very important to him now, but the work of the pawnshop is extremely special, to put it bluntly, where every day you can come into contact with a large number of antiques, and is mostly genuine, which is very important to the upgrading of the aura in his eyes, and Zhuang Rui has a feeling that, when the aura in his own eyes reaches saturation again, perhaps there will be some other changes. When the aura in his eyes reached saturation again, it might produce some other changes.
Zhuang Rui a few days ago had taken a time out, specifically to go to the Pengcheng Museum around, but the results let him very disappointed, Pengcheng Museum inside the artifacts are quite a lot, just most of the Han Dynasty jade terracotta warriors and horses, or bronzes, a few pieces of calligraphy and painting works, but they are all protected by a layer of thick glass cover, and the aura in his eyes just can not penetrate it.
There are some wooden screens and other objects, are also several meters away from a cordon, do not allow tourists to get close to, this is a fat meat on the edge of the mouth but can not eat, at that time, but the Zhuang Rui depressed.
There is another reason, that is, Zhuang Rui feel that their knowledge of this line of antiques, or too little, he is trying to return to the pawnshop to accumulate some experience and knowledge of antiques, at least after seeing an object, can say a seven or eight to, rather than relying entirely on the eyes of the aura, to distinguish the authenticity of the antiques.
In the process of these several leaks, even if the Wang Shizhen manuscript brought him three million eight hundred thousand, his heart is only shocked more than joy, the first two leaks he did not have any special feeling, because that is attributable to the eyes of the aura.
But today to get this rosewood Maitreya Buddha play piece, but let his heart has a kind of unspeakable satisfaction, for no other reason, is because of this rosewood root carving, is that he is with the eyesight to see out, not with the aura to judge out, this feeling is like you in the exam, cheating got 100 points, and completely with their own skills to get 100 points of the difference, that kind of mood is not the same at all.
Thinking of these, Zhuang Rui still decided to return to the pawnshop work, just treat the work of the original intention is completely different from before, before is for the money, and now it is for learning, wait until their own feeling of knowledge is almost full of time, and then come out to do it alone, it is not too late.
After making this decision, Zhuang Rui’s heart was also much lighter, over the past few days, he sometimes felt irritable inexplicably, it seems that the symptom is his own knot.
“Da Chuan, I’m only lucky now, I’ve been blessed with a few good objects, but it’s not possible to be this lucky for the rest of my life! In case when planted, then there is not even a chance to turn over, I also know little about the antiques this line of work, so the pawnbroker’s work can not be lost, in which you can learn a lot of things, and so I have accumulated enough, and then come out, let’s buddies together to do ……”
Zhuang Rui words let Liu Chuan some disappointment, but he also recognized Zhuang Rui said right, people can not be a lifetime of great luck, but the words of this buddy did not say dead, in order to Liu Chuan on Zhuang Rui’s understanding of the time he came out to do it alone will not be delayed for a very long time.
