Chapter 39 Picking the Leaks?

Baitang stirred the coffee in the cup with a spoon, and his eyes fell on the temporary parking place in front of the square.A taxi with a provincial license plate stopped, and two men got out of the car.The young man had a handsome face and a cheerful smile. Bai Tang recognized him as Tian Ye's former name Sheng Qingxi's netizen with the online name Hope. The middle-aged man was gentle and elegant, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. Come out and see where you have seen it.

Sheng Qingxi turned her head to look around for Baitang, and saw a girl standing up from the seat of the open-air cafe next to the square, beckoning to them.Sheng Qingxi's eyes lit up, and she dragged her little uncle towards the coffee shop.

"Hello, Baitang, I'm Sheng Qingxi." Sheng Qingxi warmly extended her hand to the girl.Seeing himself, he found that the girl was more beautiful than in the photo, her skin was so delicate and smooth that even the pores were invisible, it was still glowing, her temperament was fresh and natural, and she was kind and dusty, as if seeing a kind fairy.Sheng Qingxi couldn't help sighing, why isn't such a good seedling interested in acting?

"Hello!" Bai Tang stretched out his hand to shake hands with Sheng Qingxi. The delicate touch made Sheng Qingxi gasp in admiration. There are many beauties in the entertainment industry, but natural beauties with such a comfortable temperament are too rare.

"Miss Bai, hello, I'm glad to see you again!" Zhang Feng smiled, very lucky to meet this girl again.Jianzhan, Zhu Zhishan's copy of "Born Before and After" and the embroidery that can be regarded as a national treasure, this girl has a lot of good things!
"You are?" Baitang blinked suspiciously, she had already forgotten that Zhang Feng was her first transaction partner.

"Miss Bai may not remember clearly, my name is Zhang Feng, and I once bought a black kiln from you." I even gave this lady a business card!It seems that this young lady threw away her business card indifferently!Zhang Feng smiled helplessly. In the industry, many people were vying to get his business card, but this lady didn't cherish it at all after getting it. It seems that she really doesn't know anything about the antique circle.

The memory came back, and Baitang remembered that the man was indeed someone he had met.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!" Bai Tang shook hands with Zhang Feng, with doubts in his eyes, how did Sheng Qingxi and Zhang Feng get together?

Seeing Baitang's doubts, Zhang Feng smiled and said: "I am Xiaoxi's uncle. I am very interested in the products in your store. I heard that he is coming to see you, so I followed him. I hope you don't mind." .”

Everyone is here, and I don't care if it doesn't work.

"It's too late to welcome you!" Baitang smiled, "Let's go to the hotel to rest first! I didn't know that Mr. Zhang only booked one room, but our city doesn't have a lot of migrants, so the hotel must have vacant rooms."

"Is the hotel far away?" Sheng Qingxi asked.

"Not far, just 5 minutes' walk."

"Then let's go on foot, and take a look at the scenery." Zhang Feng said, he had a good impression of City D. Although the city is not big, the urban construction and greening are well done, and the air is fresher than the noisy big cities I don't know how many times, walking on the road and looking at the smiles on the faces of passers-by, Zhang Feng also felt the taste of happiness and ease.

"Baitang, what special snacks do you have in your city?" Sheng Qingxi is a foodie, and whenever he goes to a place, he will find the most local delicacies to eat.

"We have a lot of special snacks, such as eight-treasure oil cake, sesame oil bean chicken, juice beef, silk-wrapped rabbit... These can be eaten as snacks. When you leave, I will give you a big bag .”

"Okay!" Sheng Qingxi was extremely happy, nodding repeatedly, without refusing.

Tasting Qi is better than Shuoyang, Zhangshan's delicious taste is preserved in red and white, and the jade bowl is presented to you for tasting. "Baitang continued to introduce, "The fish head hot pot is even more authentic. I will invite the two of you to eat together tomorrow. "

"What are you waiting for tomorrow, let's go today!" Sheng Qingxi was almost drooling.

Baitang smiled and said: "Today we came to eat at our house, my mother and I made a lot of delicious food for you!"

Sheng Qingxi: "That's so embarrassing! It's better not to bother Auntie and Uncle!"

Baitang: "If you don't go, you're going to trouble them! You know that the food is almost ready. If you don't go, our family won't be able to finish it, so it's wasted."

Sheng Qingxi and Zhang Feng laughed.

"Then bother you."

Sheng Qingxi and Zhang Feng didn't have much luggage, the three of them came to the hotel easily and booked a room for Zhang Feng.The two left their luggage at the hotel and followed Baitang to Bai's house.

Bai's father and Bai's mother expressed a warm welcome to the arrival of the two, and the enthusiasm in their attitude made Sheng Qingxi almost unable to bear it.Bai Tang stroked his forehead. Her parents had misunderstood Sheng Qingxi as her boyfriend.

Bai Tang could only take advantage of Sheng Qingxi and Zhang Feng's attention being attracted by the decorations in the room, and quietly pulled Bai's parents and mother aside to explain that Sheng Qingxi was really not her boyfriend, but just an ordinary friend who came to D City for business.

Papa and Mama are so disappointed!Finally, a boy of the same age came to find his daughter, but it was not what they thought.Ouch, what should I do with my daughter's personal problems?

Although Bai's father and mother were disappointed, their enthusiasm for the two did not diminish, and they brought out melon seeds, peanuts and fruit snacks to greet them.Zhang Feng thanked with a smile, sat on the sofa and looked around.Although the Bai family's house is not big, it is very warm and grand.On the wall to the left of the TV wall hangs a pair of big characters "The best kindness is like water, and the virtues carry things".The character is Han Li, which is incorporated into the seal script, bamboo slips, and Wei stele. New, new eyes and ears.When Zhang Feng saw the title, it was indeed the calligrapher's handwriting that he recognized.Then look at a bluish-white vase on the TV cabinet, the simple and elegant shape, it turned out to be——

"Shadow Celadon?" Zhang Feng exclaimed.

"What shadow celadon?" Papa Bai asked suspiciously.

Zhang Feng pointed to the vase: "Mr. Bai, this vase is Ying celadon, don't you know?"

Papa Bai chuckled: "I don't know much about porcelain. Tangtang bought this vase, and I thought it looked good so I used it to hold flowers."

Sheng Qingxi wanted to kneel down to Bai's father. Such precious shadow celadon, Bai's father actually used it to make vases, so he was not afraid of breaking it.

"Miss Bai, where did you buy this shadow celadon?" Zhang Feng turned to ask Baitang, his interest in Baitang became more and more intense.This girl is very mysterious, she is just a girl from an ordinary family, how could there be so many valuable antiques?

"Ah, I bought it at the Xianqiao Market. When I bought it, I thought it was ordinary porcelain." Baitang was also quite surprised. She bought this vase for twenty copper coins. It was so cheap that it was quite cheap. Do you have a background?
How could Zhang Feng's old fritters not be able to tell that what Baitang said was a lie, and he didn't expose it, but smiled and said: "Miss Bai has picked a big mistake. Can you sell me this bottle? 200 million!"

"Two million?" Bai's father was surprised. "Mr. Zhang, are you right? How can such a small bottle sell for two million?"

Zhang Feng smiled and said to Bai's father: "Mr. Bai, this vase is not ordinary porcelain, but shadow celadon."

"What is shadow celadon?" Dad Bai likes to watch treasure appraisal programs, but he doesn't know much about antiques.

"Shadow celadon, also known as Ying celadon, is a treasure in the traditional porcelain making process. Its predecessor is blue and white porcelain. The shadow celadon known as 'color white flower blue' was originally created by JDZ in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty. Its glaze color is blue and white, and the glaze is clear and beautiful. It is clean, firm and greasy white, and the color is warm and moist like jade, so it is called "fake jade" in history." Zhang Feng did science popularization for Bai's father and Bai's mother who was attracted by "200 million" from the kitchen.Of course, Bai Ma didn't forget to bring out the brewed tea for the guests.

Sheng Qingxi then showed off his half-toned knowledge of antiques: "The most famous bluish-white porcelain of JDZ in the Song Dynasty was fired in the Hutian kiln, followed by Xianghu, Shengmeiting, and Liujiawan kilns. The varieties at that time included bowls, plates, bottles, and jars. Such as daily-use utensils. The blue and white porcelain in the early Northern Song Dynasty had no patterns, and won by its regular shape and jade-like enamel. After the middle period, its decoration was mainly carved, with printing, bas-relief, hollowing out, and stacking sculptures. The flowers are hidden in the elegant and generous blue and white porcelain glaze, which is bright and dark, giving people infinite charm. Blue and white porcelain was once all the rage and sold at home and abroad. According to the Song Dynasty's "Tokyo Menghualu", there were special sales of white porcelain in Bianliang and Lin'an in Kyoto at that time. Porcelain shops sell utensils for eating, drinking tea and drinking in the daily life of people in the capital. Wang Dayuan has records of foreign trade in porcelain in "Daoyi Zhilue". Li Qingzhao of the Southern Song Dynasty has "jade pillow screens" in "Drunken Flower Yin ', the jade pillow refers to the blue and white porcelain pillow..."

Bai Ma was stunned: "It sounds so tall! We use such precious porcelain as a vase, don't we feel guilty for letting the pearl be dusted?"

"Then sell it to me! I will definitely make it shine!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Daughter, why don't you sell it to Mr. Zhang!" Bai Ma started to speak, so Bai Tang naturally had to agree, accepted Zhang Feng's check, and gave the bottle to Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng was extremely proud. He picked up one of the traps just after he arrived. He believed that he could pick more traps by following Bai Tang.But he didn't see the three members of the Bai family exchange glances with each other, and the pride in their eyes was no less than his.

If I knew it earlier, I would text my dad to set up two more jars and bottles.Baitang happily thought about it, but he never expected that he was so lucky that he could pick up the leaks in ancient times, so he would go to the Liulichang in the capital for a few more rounds in the future.

Everyone is happy, Bai Ma invites the guests to the table for dinner.Eating a table of food made of ancient raw materials, the two uncles and nephews found it delicious and praised Bai Ma's craftsmanship.Bai Ma chuckled, but knew in her heart that she had taken the light of the ingredients.However, when someone praised her craftsmanship, Mama Bai was still very happy, and kept adding vegetables to Zhang Feng and Sheng Qingxi's bowls, making both of them full.
