Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

When Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao's words, her eyebrows raised. Xu Damao was too disrespectful.

Li Xiangqian laughed when he saw Lou Xiaoe's expression. This girl was quite interesting.

"It's okay, just consider it as a chance to learn something new."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Li Xiangqian with a smile, always feeling that this man was much better than Xu Damao.

Thinking about what her parents had said to her, Lou Xiao'e felt that it would not be a bad idea to marry the man in front of her.

When Xu Damao heard what Li Xiangqian said, he also laughed. Now it was time for him to show his skills.

"Okay, let's go then."

As he spoke, he looked at Lou Xiao'e who was standing beside him.

"Xiao'e, let's go to Liulichang. They specialize in selling antiques and have a lot of treasures there."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e subconsciously glanced at Li Xiangqian, and Li Xiangqian nodded slightly.

Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.

"Well, let's go to Liulichang. I must find the best gift for Dad."

After hearing this, Li Xiangqian already understood the purpose of Lou Xiaoe's visit.

The group arrived at Liulichang, and Xu Damao led everyone to the first house on the corner as if it was his own home.

"Xiao'e, there is a Rongbaozhai here. There are many treasures in it. I heard that some foreigners come here specifically to buy things."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up when she heard this and she quickly spoke.

"Really? Let's go quickly then."

Xu Damao cast a contemptuous look at Li Xiangqian who was silent beside him, and then walked in first.

At this time, there was only an old man in the store wiping the tables and chairs with a rag.

When Xu Damao saw the old man, he walked forward with a smile.

"Uncle Zhang, I'm busy."

When the old man heard this, he looked up and saw that it was Xu Damao. A hint of impatience flashed in his eyes, but he concealed it well. After all, he had taken the money and had to do the job.

"It's Damao, you're here, what would you like to order today?"

When Xu Damao heard the old man's answer, he turned around and looked at Lou Xiao'e proudly.

"Uncle Zhang, I came here this time thinking of buying something better for my partner. Can you recommend something?"

When Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao's words, she hurriedly bowed respectfully to Uncle Zhang.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang. I'm Lou Xiao'e. I'm sorry to bother you today."

Uncle Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly when listening to Lou Xiao'e's self-introduction. Her surname was Lou, and her dress showed that she was not an ordinary person, so she could only be that man's daughter.

What a pity, how did he get together with Xu Damao?

However, Uncle Zhang did not show his thoughts, for he knew that less trouble is better.

"It's Miss Lou. Come, take a look around. If you see anything you like, I'll help you judge it."

Lou Xiao'e nodded gratefully when she heard this.

Then several people began to wander around Rongbaozhai.

Uncle Zhang's eyes began to wander around several people. Xu Damao was a fool and there was no need to pay attention to him.

Lou Xiao'e could tell at a glance that she didn't understand these things. The only thing worth noting was the young man who had been silent just now. This guy looked unusual.

All the items displayed in the store are genuine. Maybe this guy has real skills?

However, he did not say it out loud, but just silently observed their every move.

Lou Xiao'e looked at the things around her with sparkling eyes. Although she didn't know whether these things were real or fake, she had seen a lot of them at home and had some knowledge in this area. She could see that there were a lot of good things here.

But if he asked her to tell him which ones were true and which ones were false, he couldn't tell him.

Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e and muttered as if he didn't care.

"I think none of these are suitable as birthday gifts. Xiao'e, come over here with me. I just saw something that is suitable as a birthday gift."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e followed Xu Damao to the other side.

Li Xiangqian stared at the plate in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Uncle Zhang looked at where Li Xiangqian was standing, narrowed his eyes slightly, and moved closer with a smile.

"How about it, my friend, is there anything you like?"

Hearing this, Li Xiangqian pointed to the plate in front of him.

"Uncle Zhang, how much is this plate?"

Uncle Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly.

"My friend, you have good eyesight. If you can tell me the time when this thing was made, I can give it to you."

Li Xiangqian laughed when he heard this.

"really?"

Uncle Zhang nodded when he heard this.

"really."

When Li Xiangqian was about to speak, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e came over, also holding a plate in their hands, but the pattern on it was a branch with six peaches hanging on it.

Xu Damao said with a smile.

"Uncle Zhang, can you help me check if this pastel peach-patterned plate is real or fake?"

When Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao say the name of the plate, she looked at him in surprise. Could it be that Xu Damao really knew these things?

Uncle Zhang glanced at Xu Damao jokingly, then looked at Li Xiangqian.

"Young friend, can you help me take a look?"

Li Xiangqian glanced at the plate casually, then said lightly.

"fake."

When Xu Damao heard Li Xiangqian's comments, he was furious. This was something his father had bought at a huge price, so it couldn't be fake.

If it was Uncle Zhang who said it, Xu Damao might have believed it, but who are you, Li Xiangqian, how dare you speak so nonsense here?

Thinking of this, Xu Damao's eyes turned red and he looked at Li Xiangqian with disdain.

"Xiang Qian, if you don't understand, just keep quiet. How could this thing of mine be fake? Uncle Zhang, don't you agree?"

Uncle Zhang took a deep look at Xu Damao who was in disbelief, then nodded silently. Although he had received money and could help to tell the truth, there were real masters here now, and he couldn't put his own reputation at risk.

"Da Mao, this thing is indeed fake, this young friend is right."

After saying that, he looked at Li Xiangqian standing beside him.

"My friend, can you help me answer this question?"

Li Xiangqian glanced at the expectant Lou Xiao'e and the incredulous Xu Damao, and smiled faintly.

"First of all, the material of your plate is wrong. Look, there are pores on it. You should know that real Qianlong colored powder porcelain usually uses high-quality porcelain clay with a fine texture, and this kind of situation will not occur."

"Secondly, look at this spot on the peach. It's obvious that the ink wasn't evenly applied."

"Also, you see, this body is neither needle-white nor lotus leaf."

Having said that, Li Xiangqian stopped his narration and spoke slowly.

"There are many more, I won't go into detail one by one, Uncle Zhang, I think these are enough, what do you think?"

Uncle Zhang smiled and clapped when he heard this.

"You are right, it is a clear fake. The person who made it is obviously a novice. There are too many flaws."

Xu Damao looked at the scene in disbelief.

"This, this, this is impossible..."
