A legendary happy life

As soon as the quiz is over, New Year's Day is about to hit head-on, and the year of great significance to China is coming to an end in a blink of an eye, even though New Year's Day is counted on the Gregorian calendar rather than the lunar calendar that China values.

And there are two more interesting days before New Year's Day, Christmas Eve and Christmas. These two festivals from the west have not shown any signs of acclimatization in mainland China, and they are quickly accepted and integrated into the Chinese culture. This country itself has many festivals.

On Christmas Eve, Li's Jewelry Company held a customer appreciation meeting, which was held in an international super five-star hotel. Xu Nanyu had seen the layout plan, which was grand, luxurious and perfect, but it might not be perfect.

"Your boss is not here at the customer appreciation meeting, so you are not afraid of falling short?" The night view outside the window was as bright as stars, and Li Tai, who was supposed to socialize with Li's jewelry customers at the appreciation meeting, was sitting opposite Xu Nanyu.

"If you don't show up, you will fall short, and it will only prove that the work is only superficial."

"You are always so confident. No matter how much I respect you, Merry Christmas!" Originally, he thought that this Christmas would be spent alone, but Li Tai suddenly came back and dragged him out of the door, and dragged him to this unknown place. There are only two of them left.However, this place is just too much for him!The food is delicious, the wine is delicious, and even the environment is impeccable, all of which are his favorite Chinese style. What's more, the Chinese paintings in the glass display cabinets embedded in the wall and on the table are all antiques!Putting down the wine glass, Xu Nanyu's eyes were almost glued to the glass cabinet, and looked at a set of four treasures of the porcelain study inside: "The boss here is really generous, it seems that this style is at least a folk fine porcelain in the late Qing Dynasty, and the whole set is such a rare color painting, tsk tsk, 50 is not enough questionable."

Li Tai came over, looked at the items in the cabinet and smiled. "You really have a good eye, so you picked the most outstanding one." Although there are many antiques in the room, they are all small objects, no matter how high the value is, the most expensive one is the complete set of porcelain four treasures of the study up.

Xu Nanyu glanced at him complacently: "Of course, it doesn't matter who the young master is!—" He suddenly paused and stared at him with wide eyes: "You won't tell me that this place is yours, will you?"

"Half of it, share with others. But it's true that all these things go through my auction company." People have some spare money and always find something to do. It's better to find another way to do it than let the money rot in the bank. Invest a little.Looking at him, he explained with great interest: "This is almost a service area, a membership-only club. Meals, leisure, entertainment, and business are all popular one-stop services nowadays."

"It looks pretty big."

"It's okay." The entire club is divided into two districts, A and B. District B is second to District A, and they are now in a luxurious private room in District A. "There's a small auction downstairs, are you interested?"

"What I shoot counts as free and I go."

Li Tai looked at him and smiled: "It depends on whether someone understands bribery."

"Bribe..." He hooked his feet over Li Tai's neck and kissed him unexpectedly. Li Tai bowed his head to accept the kiss with a high degree of cooperation, and hooked Xu Nanyu's waist and pressed towards him, forcefully deepening the kiss. kiss.After the kiss, Xu Nanyu panted and opened her moist eyes and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is this bribe allowed?"

Li Tai pursed his lips: "Barely can."

When Xu Nanyu heard this, she immediately blew up, shook her hands and looked up at him: "What do you mean 'barely can'? You know, my kiss is much cheaper than someone else's, and it's not like someone buying and selling."

Li Taidang didn't hear Xu Nanyu's complaint, and jokingly watched him lead the way to the small auction house.

Rather than talking about an auction house, it is better to say that a small bar has been requisitioned. When the music is changed and the lighting is slightly adjusted, the quiet and elegant bar immediately becomes a small classical auction.

The two of them chose a hiding place to sit down, and the waiter sent an exquisite picture album, which was not full of detailed introductions of the eleven auction items tonight.Xu Nanyu picked it up and turned it over, she couldn't help but admire, although there were not many things, but the variety was complicated and all of them were high-quality goods, there was a red sandalwood screen inlaid with various famous jades, even Xu Nanyu couldn't help drooling when she saw it. : "You have enough capital, are you not afraid that the price of things will not go up?" The red sandalwood inlaid with various famous jade screens costs millions, not to mention that the ones marked here are still from the Qing Dynasty. The price of handicrafts with characters is not the same.

"The auction is only once a month, and there are not many items needed." For his auction company, there is still the strength to free up this little stuff. The most difficult thing is to grasp a balance. If you can afford it; second, you have to be willing to bid.

"If you have strength, you are a bull. You can shoot more than ten items every month, alas." Xu Nanyu said pretending to be jealous.The movement of flipping the booklet in his hand froze suddenly, isn't this, isn't this? !My heart was beating violently, but I put away the picture album without showing any expression on my face, sipped my red wine and said, "It seems that I underestimated your auction company, since you can even collect golden nanmu wooden boxes from the Ming Dynasty. "

Li Tai smiled and asked, "What? Like this one?"

"I'm thinking about it, but are you really going to give it to me for free?" If I remember correctly, there is a super big secret in this precious golden nanmu box that will be leaked!

Li Tai said jokingly. "Cannibalism is short-mouthed and soft-handed, and I have to accept the bribe as an exception."

Xu Nanyu responded to his ridicule without blushing or panting: "Okay, then I will take this box." As soon as the golden nanmu came out, it was designated as a rare wood exclusively for the royal family. Since the Ming Dynasty, it has been assessed as a tribute to the golden nanmu There is a system of official achievements, and there is a saying that the folks donate a piece of golden nanmu to get the official to do it. The golden nanmu was born in Shu, and there is a saying that even a piece of nanmu is a life in the hardships of Shu.It’s just that the excessive use of the previous dynasty made the rare golden nanmu even rarer, causing most people to only hear its name but not see it. Rot, the second is insect protection, and the third is not cool in winter.

"I thought you would want that screen." Li Tai looked at him with raised eyebrows. Xu Nanyu always wanted to annoy him and play against him. If he found such a cheap thing, he would definitely kill him for picking the most expensive screen. Since you picked the golden nanmu box?The box is not big, and although there are exquisite carvings on the surface, it is worth more than 01:30 points compared with the mahogany screen.

"Only choose the right one and not the expensive one. Although the screen is good, it is not the style I like. I have already planned to make one I like. It is a golden nanmu box. I also like the carved patterns so well preserved. Pack things for me later." Really?Of course it's a lie, if it wasn't for the things in the golden nanmu box, he would have let go of the chance to kill Li Tai?Even if you think about it, what's more, for Li Tai, he will take care of tens of millions of things?But if you want to add a zero behind it, maybe, ha ha.

Li Tai looked at him suspiciously.

Soon after the host came to the stage and gave a simple welcome speech, he announced the start of the auction.The eleven objects are divided into three stages, and each stage has an extremely valuable thing as the finale, and the mahogany inlaid jade screen of various colors is the finale of the second stage and is destined to be the most brilliant finale.

"760!" Xu Nanyu sipped her wine and stretched out her hand slowly.

Li Tai looked at him.

Xu Nanyu looked at him without guilt at all: "I'm helping you generate income. Others charge for entrusting me, but I'm free of charge."

There are not a few people who like jade screens, and soon the price hit a new high of 800 million, and it was broken in the blink of an eye.But no matter how much you like it, you will do what you can. When the screen was raised to 840 million, the bidding slowed down.

"840 million!" Xu Nanyu asked again.

Li Tai looked at him and asked, "Didn't you say you don't like this screen?"

"Of course I don't like it, I'm your 'trust' now." 'Trust' is a partnership with the owner to deceive people, and everyone is happy if things are sold at a higher price, but if the price is raised but they can't be sold The consequences are still the master's, so in the final analysis, Xu Nanyu is the one who disrupted the situation.

The high price of 840 and [-] made the scene silent for more than ten seconds, and they all looked at the bidders, but Xu Nanyu and Li Tai were sitting in a hidden position and covered by bead curtains, so they might not be able to see them no matter how long their necks were. The true colors of the two.

The host has rich experience and actively mobilizes the atmosphere, and finally someone can't help but offer a high price. "850 million!"

Before Xu Nanyu could reach out his hand, Li Tai quickly moved over his face and moved closer to cover his mouth.This block lasted for nearly a minute, and it was not until the host announced that Li Tai, the winner of the screen, let Xu Nanyu go.

"You!" Xu Nanyu glared at Li Tai.

Li Tai stretched out his hand to pinch his swollen face, and said dotingly, "Don't make trouble!"

"I didn't make trouble."

Li Tai looked at him, and Xu Nanyu turned his head in embarrassment and didn't intervene on the next few lots, except for the last lot, the bright golden silk nanmu box.The host gave a brief introduction and set a starting price of 20 yuan for each increase of no less than [-] yuan.

Someone tentatively offered 25 yuan, Xu Nanyu looked at Li Tai, Li Tai stretched out his hand, "30 yuan."

"35." There was another bid, and Li Tai raised the price again very calmly. To be precise, no matter who bid, Li Tai would directly catch up with the bidder with a price of 75 more than the other party, until the price was raised to 25. Li Tai Tai lost his patience and directly increased the price by 100 to an integer of [-] million.

Although golden nanmu is precious, it is also valuable. A golden nanmu as big as a wooden box costs 80 yuan, and the buyers who Li Tai carried to 100 million like it secretly thought about it and shook their heads to give up.Do everything according to your ability, and it is unnecessary to rush to the big head without reason.

The host dropped the hammer and announced the success of the auction. After the thank you speech, the auction ended. Someone came up to the stage and moved the podium down. Suddenly, the music started and the lights went dark, and the venue returned to an elegant and quiet bar again.

Xu Nanyu was not in the mood to taste wine, she pulled Li Tai and said that she wanted to see his case.

Li Tai would certainly not refuse to ask someone to send the suitcase to the private room. How dare the boss be slow when he orders the subordinates?The security guard who was escorting the box entered the door after the two entered.After Li Tai signed the papers and let the security go out, Xu Nanyu had already opened the lid of the box and hung it up to look inside. Li Tai stepped forward and hooked him around his waist so that he wouldn't get too carried away and fall down. The box wasn't big enough, but it was amazing. It's okay to plant a lot of people deeply.

"What are you messing with?" Li Tai asked, seeing that Xu Nanyu was still enjoying watching inside.

"I want to tear off this piece of cloth, it's too intrusive." There is a piece of woven cotton cloth embedded in the bottom of the box. In ancient times, such a piece of cloth was usually used to prevent dust, but it doesn't match the golden nanmu box at all.

Li Tai rubbed his forehead, I really don't know why this impatient person likes antiques. "Don't do it, I'll let someone handle it."

"No! This is my thing. What if I break it? Who am I to pay for it?" Xu Nanyu is notoriously stubborn on this point, and firmly believes that her own things are only cherished by herself.

Li Tai looked at him recklessly pulling the cloth at the bottom, and frowned: "Stop first, I'll ask someone to find you a pair of scissors."

Someone brought scissors, Xu Nanyu took it and carefully cut the cotton cloth, and after cleaning up the small rags, it looked much more pleasing to the eye.Li Tai looked at it, but something was wrong: "The color of the bottom of this box is not the same as the color of the surrounding area."

Xu Nanyu pretended to be curious and then went in to have a look, looked, felt and knocked, and the hollow sound of 'dongdong' came. "The bottom of this box is empty." Li Tai heard that he brought something to compare the height of the inside and outside, since the difference is a full seven centimeters! "This is?" How can a good box be empty at the bottom?Could it be that there is a mezzanine purposely inside?Is the cotton cloth on the pad to make the sound of the percussion sound real?

Taking advantage of Li Tai's doubts, Xu Nanyu took the blade of the scissors and began to pry the wooden board at the bottom, pried open the wooden board within two strokes, and exclaimed: "There is something!"

"Be careful and don't move, I'll get you a glove." I don't know how many years the things in the interlayer have been hidden. Although the golden nanmu is anti-corrosion, insect-proof and anti-freeze, after so many years, I don't know what bacteria will stick to it. Be careful and face it It's better to be cautious when you don't know.He fetched gloves for him to put on, and Li Tai put on the gloves himself and took what Xu Nanyu handed over from the bottom of the box.

Two sealed golden nanmu boxes, the larger one is about [-] cm long, [-] cm wide and about [-] cm high, and the smaller one is even smaller, about the size of a palm and only three fingers wide.

Li Tai carefully put the two things on the table, Xu Nanyu got out of the box and looked at the wooden box and said, "Both boxes are stuck at the bottom, it seems that this interlayer is specially made for these two boxes."

The word 'hidden treasure' suddenly burst out of Li Tai's mind, looking like Xu Nanyu: "Open it or not?"

Xu Nanyu murmured: "The golden nanmu box was used as a cover, and now it is sealed and protected with a golden nanmu box. The items stored in it may be objects that need to be anti-corrosion, insect-proof and anti-freeze. It will cause the objects inside to be affected by oxidation." He knew what the contents were, and when they were discovered in his previous life, the discoverer opened them rashly, resulting in serious oxidation loss of the objects. "I mean find a place that will prevent oxidative conditions before opening."

The place to prevent oxidation is the vacuum space. Fortunately, this is not difficult for Li Tai. Not far from the club is the headquarters of Li Tai's auction company, where there are all the necessary conditions to protect old objects, and there is no shortage of vacuum space.

Li Tai personally drove the two of them to the chief escort, and took advantage of his authority to smoothly go to the internal antique maintenance department. Although today is Christmas Eve, there are still staff who have no lovers and love antiques at work, so I borrowed a vacuum box from him. Li Tai put the two boxes in.

After evacuating the air in the box, Xu Nanyu and Li Tai looked at each other, and they stuffed the gloves together, starting with the big ones.Li Tai fixed the wooden box with Nie Zi, while Xu Nanyu carefully opened the lock with Nie Zi, and then gently opened the box.

"This is?!" Not only Xu Nanyu's eyes widened, but even Li Tai was a little dazed.

The bright yellow silk satin quietly stayed inside the box, and two carved jade scrolls were fixed on the bottom of the box from under the silk satin. Although there were wrinkles on the bright yellow silk satin, the whole picture could not be seen, but this is impossible in China. The whole world knows that this is the sacred totem of China - the dragon!

Decree!What is impressively kept in the box is an authoritative proof that can only be issued by the highest authority in the ancient imperial society-imperial decree!Moreover, it was the imperial decree of the first-grade jade scroll, and the imperial decree of the first-grade jade scroll could only be issued to princes and princes.

Xu Nanyu licked her tongue, knowing it was one thing but actually seeing it was another! "I can't deal with this thing." The imperial decree is made of the highest quality silk satin, but it has decayed over time. Although he has prevented oxidation, he has no technology to preserve it completely without damaging the imperial decree's ability.

"I'll call and ask Grandpa to send someone over." Li Tai didn't dare to let the maintenance staff of the auction company be responsible for such a precious and representative object like the imperial decree.Li Tai dialed the phone to explain the meaning briefly, and Mr. Li reacted so quickly that he immediately told him not to touch the other box. He would send someone over immediately, and asked Xu Nanyu to listen to the phone and truly praised him for his awareness of preserving and caring for ancient relics.

Xu Nanyu was terrified, this was the most obvious compliment from Mr. Li, but Xu Nanyu was embarrassed to open the second box secretly against Mr. Li's intention after receiving this praise.

Li Tai hung up the phone, leaned lightly beside the vacuum box and said, "Come here and give me some bribes, and I'll deny what happened next."

Without further ado, Xu Nanyu stood on tiptoe and gave him a French kiss!

After the kiss, Li Tai blinked his lips: "Not bad, there is progress."

Xu Nanyu's eyes were full of hope, and Li Tai smiled and helped him open the second box.

A piece of creamy white jade carved phoenix jade pendant was quietly fixed in the box, two and a half fingers wide and nearly one finger long, with a little bit of red at the eyes of the phoenix, like a phoenix crown, the whole piece of jade is moist, compact, translucent and pure, pure and white, It looks like the liquid is flowing.

"Superior mutton fat jade." This is the real top-grade mutton fat jade. Compared with the kind of mutton fat jade that is currently on the market, it is completely incomparable!It has been preserved in golden nanmu for so many years, and even looking at it through a vacuum box is fascinating. Xu Nanyu dare not imagine what it will be like after being taken out as a jade pendant and warmed up for a few years.

There are two treasures, one is the authoritative proof of the supreme ruler of the imperial society; the other is the famous top-quality jade in history, and no matter which one is put on, the two are treasures that can dazzle people's eyes!

The two of them worked together to cover the box, and when the people sent by Mr. Li took the two things away, Li Tai drove back to the villa with Xu Nanyu.

On the way, Li Tai glanced at Xu Nanyu and said with a smile: "Now your kiss is probably worth ten times as much as mine."

Xu Nanyu burst out laughing, the first-grade imperial decree is complete with a jade axis, and the highest-grade sheep fat jade, once the source of the imperial decree is found out, it will immediately cause a sensation in the history world, once the identity of the former owner of the best sheep fat jade is revealed, the value will rise even higher It's frighteningly high. When the value of the two items is calculated, it is definitely not a joke to say that it is ten times as much as 2000 million! "Regret?" After all, the wooden box is owned by Li Tai's company, that is, his, and now the wooden box is Li Tai's gift to Xu Nanyu, which means that this super leak was taken from Li Tai's hands!

"I regret... I didn't meet you sooner."
