Jianbao Lingyan
Chapter 140
There are four brothers in Chen Zhibei's family. Their names are based on 'south, south, and northwest'. Chen Zhibei is the fourth eldest, and Yuanyuan's biological father is the third. After becoming a civil servant, Chen Zhibei sent money to his family and went into business. He was somewhat arrogant and felt that he was the most powerful in his family.
This time it was Chen Zhibei's second elder brother, Chen Zhinan, who stopped a few people this time, a very naughty man in his early thirties, with three children in his family, and his wife was childhood sweetheart since childhood. .At the same time, he was different from Chen Zhibei since he was a child, and belonged to the type that was very popular with his family. Therefore, the relationship between the two brothers was very ordinary, and it could even be called not very good.
Now, the two people in the Chen family that Chen Zhibei didn't want to see the most stood in front of a few people, and stopped them enthusiastically. It would be pure nonsense to say that they had any good thoughts in their hearts.
According to the rules of my hometown, when a child is adopted into a brother's house, both families must avoid it for at least two years, so that the child can have a harmonious relationship with the new parents as much as possible.
But now, Chen Zhixi was wearing a suit he didn't know where to buy in a serious manner, and he was carrying a bag of nutritional supplements in his hand. It looked like he was visiting relatives in Shanghai, making Chen Zhibei frowned.
"Second brother, third brother, are you here to see the second master? Why don't you go in?" Seeing that the atmosphere on both sides was a bit stiff, Xu Wei had no choice but to say hello.
"Yuanyuan, call someone, and say good evening, second uncle and third uncle." Chen Zhibei hugged Yuanyuan, and taught the child to call someone in a serious manner. For fear that Chen Zhibei would throw her to the other party, he called out in a low voice, "Second Uncle, Third Uncle."
When Chen Zhixi heard his own daughter call him third uncle, he twitched in pain, but quickly covered it up, "Yuanyuan has gained weight, the fourth child is quite good at raising children."
Seeing Yuanyuan's appearance, Xu Er regretted it very much in his heart. Why did he and Chen Zhibei drink just now? If it wasn't for the concern that drinking and driving would be unsafe, his family had already returned home at this time, how could Yuanyuan see this? two people.
"Oh, look at Yuanyuan, it's opened up, and it's even more beautiful." Chen Zhinan doesn't care, the children have to call him the second uncle anyway, "We just arrived here, and Uncle Xu is really developed, buying such a big I live in a house, I have heard that houses in the city are very expensive, a small house can build a big house with a yard in my hometown."
Chen Zhinan was also carrying some things in his hands, which looked like treasures from his hometown, "This is Xiaoer, I haven't seen him for several years, so it's a coincidence that you came here with Beizi?"
"Second Brother Chen, Beizi and I live close together." Xu Wei replied, it is indeed close, the two houses are next to each other.
"Well, it's good, it's good, the two of you can take care of each other."
Chen Zhinan was just chatting about family matters, after a few words, Xu Wei stepped forward and rang the doorbell, and after a while, a short, fat woman in her early thirties wearing an apron came out.
"Sister-in-law Liu, someone from my hometown has come to visit the second master."
Xu You greeted the woman and gestured backwards.
"Hey, come in quickly, young master, you haven't come here for a few days, the master has been nagging recently."
Mrs. Liu is Xu Yanzhen's housekeeper who loves outside, and she speaks with a strong flavor of old Shanghai. It is said that nowadays such servants are all used as housekeepers, and they have a lot of status in the family.
It was the first time for the Chen family brothers to come to Xu's house in Shanghai, and they were overwhelmed by Aunt Liu's words before they entered the door.
This is both the master and the young master, so it sounds very powerful, like a drama on TV.Therefore, after the two of them entered the door, even Chen Zhixi, who had always been pretentious, felt reserved, instead of holding his head up like before, looking like an intellectual.
"Hey, you guys are here, come in quickly, why did you bring something here?"
The second master, Xu Dongliang, saw the Chen brothers who came in at the back, and he didn't feel sudden at all. Thinking about it, the old man has been the village chief for more than 20 years, and then he retired. What are the big things and small things in the village? He didn't know it.Especially with a telephone installed at home, anyone can contact the village.
However, he did not expect that these two people would come so quickly.
"I've also heard about your affairs. Did you dig something out of the ground?" Xu Dongliang sat on the sofa, holding Yuanyuan in his hands.
In this family, the one who likes Yuanyuan the most is actually Xu Dongliang. In his opinion, Yuanyuan will provide for Xiao Er in the future, and he is considered a member of their old Xu family.
"Second Master Xu, you are a servant. You didn't dig it out of the soil. My family refurbished the house and found it at the root of the wall."
Sitting across from him, Chen Zhinan was eloquent as usual, and explained the ins and outs of this matter.
The Chen family’s old house has also lived in three or four generations. It was built by Chen Zhibei’s grandfather. Now Chen Jia’s brothers are all promising and earning money, so they want to go home and enjoy the scenery. Not returning to my hometown is like traveling at night in brocade clothes'.
As a result, the house was scrapped, but a large pot was dug out in the corner, and there were many small objects made of gold, silver and jade in it.
The third child of the Chen family is also a person who has seen the world. He knows that such things can be regarded as antiques, and they can be sold for a very high price in the city.
It’s like a poor household in a neighboring village who found a bowl from the Qing Dynasty at home and sold it to the people in the city. Each has a small car.
Although the three brothers of the Chen family have their own business in the town, it is only a little better than earning a dead wage. They don't even dare to think about small mansions and cars.
Now that I have found these things in my own home, the whole family is looking forward to getting rich and buying a car by relying on this jar of objects.
Of course, Chen Zhinan didn't say the latter paragraph, but even people like Xu Wei understood it, which shows how obvious Chen Zhinan's hint was.
"Did you bring something? My second child does this. He happens to be here. Let him take a look. Your third aunt has an uncle who has connections. If it's a good thing, I'll contact you and sell it." Xu Dongliang said to The two brothers of the Chen family didn't have any prejudices. After all, they were not their own family members, so it had nothing to do with them, as long as Chen Zhibei was fine.
Therefore, for the two brothers' request, out of the morality of the fellow countrymen, they are willing to help. As for the other things, it has nothing to do with him.
When the two brothers of the Chen family heard that Xu Wei was going to take a look first, they looked at each other, feeling very unreliable, and even had the idea that the other party was perfunctory them.
Although I heard a few years ago that Xu You is not as stupid as he was when he was a child, and he would pack a lot of things when he went home during the holidays, but I really don't know what Xu You does in the devil.
"My second child is also a graduate student. He has learned the craft from the master in the antique shop for several years. If you don't believe me, go out and find someone yourself."
For Xu Dongliang, the eldest grandson of the eldest brother's family is definitely the best educated and most educated in the old Xu family. Now some people suspect that Xu Er is not knowledgeable enough, and they simply look down on their Xu family.
"Second Master, you misunderstood me. How can I? I just didn't expect Xiao Er to be so powerful now."
Saying this, I was afraid that the other party would really pick someone up, and my brother and I were unfamiliar with the place, so I couldn't be ashamed to ask Chen Zhibei for help, so I took out the ceramic jar hidden in the mountain treasure and put it on the table superior.
Xu Wei really didn't expect the two of them to carry things with them, and hide them in the souvenirs they brought, but think about it, in the city, no one would care about such things, and even leave when they see them. Stay far away, for fear of getting your clothes dirty.
Xu You poured out the contents of the jar carefully, picked them up one by one, and looked at them pretendingly. Soon after, Xu Er divided the contents of the jar into three piles of different sizes.
"These things are objects from the mid-Qing Dynasty, almost all of which were given to children of relatives and friends by wealthy families in ancient times, as meeting gifts or red envelopes for festivals." Xu Wei looked at the jar without any trace, thinking, There is such a good thing in Beizi's family, and I don't know if it is an ancestral item in Beizi's family.
"The pile on the left is the most common gold and silver products. If you look at the price of gold and silver, it's really not worth a lot of money, but if you find something you like, you can sell it for about three or four thousand." , Xu Wei felt that he needed to explain, "Second brother and third brother of the Chen family, I don't think the level is too high. Generally, the prices given are relatively low. Just listen and use it as a reference."
The two of the Chen family over there were disappointed when they heard that such a pile of things was worth three or four thousand. After hearing Xu Wei's words, they seemed to have found a little light.
I thought to myself, the boss of the Xu family listened to Xu Erye's intentions, and actually worked as an apprentice in a shop. The price of things in this shop is naturally lower. In this way, these things should be able to sell for five or six dollars. Thousands are right.
Although this is not much, the money to build a house for parents can come out.
Seeing the disappointed but acceptable expressions of the two, Xu Wei breathed a sigh of relief. If the two insisted that they were not good enough and wanted to go out to find someone, Xu Er would naturally not stop them. But in this way, the second master Xu Dongliang will be angry.
The old man is getting old, and he can't be overjoyed and sad all the time. Now the whole family is paying attention to this matter.
"This second pile is better than the previous ones in terms of quality. If you sell it alone, you can still get 600 yuan. There are 21 pieces in total, which is about 1 yuan."
Chen Zhinan could tell that Xu Er was talking about going from low to high, so in this way, although there are nine in the last pile, the price is also the highest.
"The third pile, Xiao Er, tell me what the price of the third pile is."
Seeing that Xu Er was in a hurry, he stopped being a fool, "Second Brother Chen, these small objects made of jade are very valuable. Although they are not suet jade, they are also Lantian jade, but they have been buried in the wall for a long time. It doesn't look good, but nowadays, it's about four thousand at most." When the Chen brothers heard this, they could sell at least 5 yuan for this pile of things, which is a windfall for serious business.
While the two brothers were happily researching how to maximize their profits, Xu Wei pointed to the jar again, "Although I don't know where Chen Jiazu got it from, I dare say that it is the most valuable No, it’s this pot instead.” “Stop teasing me, Xiao Er, this is a ceramic pot, can it be worth more than gold and silver?” Although Chen Zhinan knew that antiques were valuable, he still felt that things made of earth could not be more valuable than gold and silver. Gold, silver or jade are valuable, even if the clay product is very large.
Xu Wei lifted the jar upside down, pointed to the seal on it, and said, "Look here, here is the red inscription 'made by Ju Ren Tang'. Ju Ren Tang is the royal special porcelain used by Yuan Shikai when he restored the throne in the Republic of China. Since Yuan Shikai's year name was 'Hongxian' at that time, this kind of porcelain was also called 'Hongxian Porcelain', and it was very popular at the auction."
Xu Wei returned the jar and put it on the table, and continued to explain, "Your jar, scientific name is Hongxian Porcelain Lantern Jar, and it is in complete condition, and the lid is not lost. It will be very popular. But unfortunately, the jar on this jar There is almost nothing sudden, just a plum blossom and a few butterflies, which is not considered a high-quality product, and the price is at most [-] to [-]."
After thinking about it, Xu Wei added, "It's best not to sell this jar now, the price will go up in a few years."
Although Xu Er said so, it seemed that the Chen family brothers didn't take it seriously.
It's a pity, but Xu Er is only offering some suggestions, and it's up to them how to deal with it.But Xu Er turned around and looked at Chen Zhibei who had been silent all this time. After all, he was also part of the Chen family and had the right to speak.
However, Chen Zhibei had been sitting there without saying a word, if Xu Wei hadn't known him well, he wouldn't have noticed anything wrong with him.
Speaking of it, my family didn't seem to know that Lao Chen's family was building a new house.
This time it was Chen Zhibei's second elder brother, Chen Zhinan, who stopped a few people this time, a very naughty man in his early thirties, with three children in his family, and his wife was childhood sweetheart since childhood. .At the same time, he was different from Chen Zhibei since he was a child, and belonged to the type that was very popular with his family.

Xu You greeted the woman and gestured backwards.
"Hey, come in quickly, young master, you haven't come here for a few days, the master has been nagging recently."
