Chapter 120 Picking up a conversation and heartbeat

After sending him away, Xu Wei returned to Xu Yanzhen's house. At this time, the mistress had already prepared lunch.

Two plates of vegetables, one plate of stir-fried snails, and one roasted egg. The staple food is steamed buns with fine noodles bought by my third aunt Guo Meili.

Xu Yanming and his wife also stayed to eat together. During the dinner, the dinner table, which was supposed to be very lively, was quiet all the time, except for the sound of chopsticks touching the dishes.

Liu Yunhua wanted to talk to Xu You all the time, but the second master Xu Dongliang stayed with Xu You all the time, and the two kept chatting about some things in life.

Since the price of seafood in the market is going up recently, I have to save some at home, and the road is being built to the east, so be careful when going out.

Although we talked a lot, we did not say a lot of specific things.

Xu Er left before Xu Yanming and his wife, and quickly ran back to his home. As soon as he got home, the disguise in front of him quickly collapsed. Sitting with his head buried in his knees.

In fact, I still can't let it go, Xu Wei thought to herself mockingly.

Afterwards, Xu You carried two bottles of beer and went up to the rooftop by himself. While drinking there, he watched the stars at the same time, until he was a little unsteady, and then he wobbled back to the bedroom.

When Xu You woke up the next day, the only thing she felt was discomfort and a severe headache.

But drinking is still somewhat useful, at least Xu Wei is not as aggrieved as yesterday, although the sequelae are a bit bigger.

But the physical pain is still tolerable, at least it's better than the pain in my heart.

So Xu Wei decided to return to work and rest, eat, practice calligraphy, read books, practice the piano, walk the dog, and organize the papers he wrote whenever he feels inspired at night.

Xu You arranges his time very full, just to prevent himself from being idle and thinking about things.

But in the afternoon, the Shiya Nei suddenly called and asked Xu Er to go to the clubhouse where he had dinner last night to participate in a small auction.

The auction is a very good place to pass the time.

So Xu Wei readily agreed, it just so happens that it's not interesting to be alone right now.

In the evening, Shi Ya Nei drove to the gate of Xu Wei's house to pick up people.

Xu Er prepared the food for Dashan and Xiaobai, played with the two dogs for a while, and then followed Shi Ya Nei to the clubhouse.

Xu You didn't pay attention when he came last time, but this time he came earlier, so he saw the front of the clubhouse.

An antique building, like an ancient attic, with a black-and-gold sign of "Visiting the Garden" hanging on it.

"Touring the garden?" Xu You read out the sign in doubt, "It's quite antique."

"That is, this clubhouse is mainly taking the route of cultural people, and it is specially targeting people like you."

A few days ago, the Shiya Nei successfully bought a lot of health care products for the old people at home. It was a time of prosperity, and this was the reason why the Shiya Nei's representative, Xu Er, came here to participate in the auction today.

Continue to have a good relationship with Xu Wei, and strive to obtain more drug supplies in order to save the country, and further improve self-worth in front of the elders in the family and in front of brothers.

The auction was held on the top floor of the clubhouse. Before the start, the clubhouse put some of the more attractive auction items on the booth outside the venue, covered them with glass covers, and displayed them.

In addition to a few pieces of porcelain that are very attractive at first glance, there are also a few pieces of very eye-catching jade jewelry and diamond jewelry. Although they are not antiques, there are the most people standing in front of them.

Almost all the women gathered there, staring at a few pieces of jewellery, almost rushing to snatch them all home and wearing them on themselves.

But Xu Wei noticed that there was a woman who didn't join in the fun, but stood alone in front of a small enamel bowl, watching intently.

Xu You knew her, or had seen her.

I went to Xu Yanzhen's house with that Mr. Du yesterday, that cold beauty who wanted to buy a letter.

Xu You thought for a while, then leaned over.

Now that you see someone you know, why don't you just go over and say hello, Xu You remembered that this beautiful woman's surname seems to be Liao.

"Miss Liao, we meet again." Xu You has almost no experience in contacting strange girls. This sentence was taught by Liu Hui. According to Liu Hui, this sentence can instantly find a topic with the other party, make contact awkward, and chat.

"Well, hello." The cold beauty didn't even look at Xu You, but still looked seriously at the small enamel bowl in front of her.

Xu You touched his nose, touched his nose in embarrassment, turned and left, just in time to see Shi Ya Nei standing aside with a suppressed smile.

When Xu Wei returned to Shi Ya Nei, Shi Ya Nei tensed up again, and laughed out loud, "I said you haven't struck up a conversation with a girl since you started all over again, this sentence has long been used badly."

"Liu Hui taught me this. He said it's easy to use, so I used it. I didn't use it before. This is the first time I saw a girl who likes antiques. I wanted to have a good chat with her, but I didn't." Come to think of it, it turned out to be like this.”

What Xu You said was true.

In the world of antiques, there are very few female collectors, and almost all of them are men. In addition, when Xu You was still ignorant of feelings, he was locked up by Chen Zhibei, and he never made any more moves towards girls. Sorry, so this is indeed the first time Xu You took the initiative to talk to a young woman.

Of course, the result was very unsatisfactory, and it left a bad impression on the other party.

"I said brother, you chatted up a beautiful woman, what can you talk to her about, that one looks like an iceberg at first glance, if you crash into it without end, the ship will definitely sink."

Shi Ya Nei and Xu Wei have known each other for a long time, and they also know Xu Wei a little bit. Apart from chatting about antiques, other topics will make the other party become a gourd.

"I just want to tell her that the small enamel bowl seems to be an object from the early Kangxi Dynasty. Although it is also an enamelware from the Qing Dynasty, it is incomparable with the Qianlong Dynasty. I think the starting price of the small bowl is Yes, 56, [-]% higher than the normal market price, I just want to remind her."

Xu You once thought that he didn't understand the market price, and sold a few small things cheaply, which made him very regretful.This time I saw a rare beauty who likes antiques, so I couldn't help but want to point it out, but it turned out to be a bad start, and it caused a misunderstanding, and I felt depressed after thinking about it.

"I think you just don't have a womanhood. Forget it, you'd better go in with me, a bad old man." Shi Ya Nei laughed for a long time before stopping, and then walked into the auction venue with Xu You shoulder to shoulder, and by the way, Xu You talked about how to get in touch with girls nowadays.

Although the Shiya felt that Xu Wei probably didn't need this kind of knowledge, he didn't mind doing anything that could bring the two of them closer.

Auctions, that's all. The auction items start with the cheapest, or the least competitive item.

The auction held by the Garden Club this time was very high-level. It was an exquisite landscape painting that had no inscriptions in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but was extremely high-end in mounting and using painting techniques.

The starting price was 1 yuan, and it was quickly bought by a middle-aged man for [-] yuan.

Afterwards, there were some very high-end auction items, especially when a few pieces of jewelry came out, it caused a round of very fierce bidding.

Although Xu Wei didn't see anything good, he still had a good time watching it.

There is a saying in the antique industry, that is, you can own it when you see it.

Owning so many objects at once is not a worthwhile trip, especially, Xu Er's "owning" is a real possession in a sense.

Xu Wei used his eyes to 'scan' a few items that were not bad, but the price was a bit high, into his mind.

This allows you to drop out of your mind at any time when you need it, and watch it in 360 degrees at will.

Xu Er's 'sweeping' was happy, but someone on the other side was not very happy.

Liao Ruyan was sitting on the seat by herself, and beside her was a young man who was very nonchalant but very elite, who was courting her a lot.

"Ruyan, do you like this necklace? How about I wear it for you?"

"No thanks, I don't like diamonds."

"How come, women like diamonds, especially big beauties like you, they must look good wearing them. I was outside just now, and when I saw this diamond necklace, I thought of you. You and this necklace definitely complement each other .”

The man eagerly wanted to put the diamond necklace on Liao Ruyan's neck, but was blocked by Liao Ruyan's cold air.

Not long after, the small enamel bowl that Liao Ruyan saw outside was on the auction block.

"Everyone, this is a small bowl of cloisonné enamel with lotus leaves in the mid-Qing Dynasty. It belongs to the imperial products of the Qing Dynasty. The starting price is 56 yuan. The auction starts now."

Liao Ruyan moved, and gently raised the number plate in his hand, "57."

"58."

"58."

……

"60."

Liao Ruyan raised his card for the last time and successfully won this small enamel bowl.

Xu Er glanced at Liao Ruyan, then turned her head away.Although the transaction price was nearly [-] higher than the actual price, but as the saying goes, money is hard to buy, and people may just be attracted to it.

As the auction entered its climax, a very special auction item was pushed up.

"Everyone, this is a well-preserved bronze hammer. After expert appraisal, it is a very rare ancient bronze hammer in the Eastern Han Dynasty. This auction has been circulating in the hands of several collectors, and the inheritance is orderly. The starting price is 87 yuan , the price will increase by at least [-] each time the placard is raised, and the auction starts now."

Xu You fell in love with the hammer at a glance, and almost straightened his eyes.

Of course, the first thing Xu You saw was not the hammer, but the Baoguang that appeared on the hammer.

A simple and majestic hammer, in the flames, struck downwards rhythmically, hitting an object evenly.

Long strip shape, something that needs to be quenched and beaten in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Xu You's heart jumped up excitedly, looking longingly at the bronze hammer on the stage.

If his guess is correct, Xu You slowed down his heartbeat, thinking that in the next two months, he would have things to do.

When Xu Wei came to his senses, the price of the bronze hammer had already risen to [-] million.

Xu Er hurriedly withdrew her mind, raised the sign in her hand, "110 million."

"110 million."

"110 million."

"110 million."

"120."

Competing with Xu Wei was Liao Ruyan who bought the small enamel bowl before.

Liao Ruyan was very interested in this bronze hammer, and was about to keep the hammer in his pocket.

And the others withdrew from the competition for the bronze hammer.

Now the price of bronze hammers is a bit high. There is no artistic value like this, only things with relatively high historical and humanistic value, and generally few people like them.

Seeing the other party chasing after him, Xu You angrily raised the sign in his hand and made a new offer.

"200."
