The Charming Life of Rebirth
Chapter 23
After hearing He Xingjun's question, Bai Jie quickly said, "That place is a little out of the way, I have to find someone to take us there."
He Xingjun frowned slightly upon hearing this.But at this moment, Bai Jie had already taken out his phone and made a call.
The middleman can be regarded as an acquaintance of Bai Jie, and Bai Jie has already bought a lot of good things through his introduction.This time he heard that He Xingjun wanted to collect things, so he wanted to take him over there, since size is a personal favor.
After making the phone call, Bai Jie said with a smile: "Third Young Master, there are many good things in the old houses in the capital. Compared with them, the old houses in Shanghai are a little less. Now that they are open, people's minds are alive, and some It looked pretty good at the time, but it’s actually not real. I usually don’t bother to listen to those silly stories, so I just want experts to give me palms to save money. This time, I met an expert like San Shao Is it? Let's go there in a while..."
The weather is not too cold, standing on the street and talking is better than being bored in the car.So Xiao Lin and the others didn't return to the car, but stood aside and listened to Bai Jie's words.
Seeing Bai Jie flattering He Xingjun while explaining the matter clearly, He Bin couldn't help feeling admiration.
Bai Jie sighed again while talking, "Nowadays, the antique shops are doing everything they can to counterfeit, and there may be fewer in the countryside, especially in a big city like Shanghai, where ten out of ten items may be fake. "
He Xingjun didn't know much about antiques, so he couldn't help but look at Xiao Lin when he heard the words.
Before Xiao Lin could speak, He Bin spoke first: "That's right, the last time we went to Liulichang with Grandpa Huang, we saw someone bought a fake Xuande furnace and bragged about how much money he made..."
Bai Jie was slightly taken aback, and asked, "Grandpa Huang? Could it be Mr. Huang Wei?"
He Bin nodded: "That's right, it's Grandpa Huang."
Bai Jie's expression immediately changed. "Huang Lao is an old man in the collection industry. He has a sharp eye and is especially good at porcelain. Are you Huang Lao's apprentice?"
Bai Jie originally thought that He Xingjun was just like some princelings, buying some good things like playing tickets, but he didn't expect that some of these people really know how to do it.
Huang Wei and Huang Lao took in a young apprentice, and this matter had already spread in the circle.
When Bai Jie heard He Bin mention Huang Lao, he thought he was Huang Lao's apprentice.
He Bin shook his head: "I'm not, he is." He pointed to Xiao Lin.
Seeing Xiao Lin's appearance, Bai Jie was almost stunned. This, so small?No more than ten years old at most, what does Huang Lao think?Could it be that this little doll is extremely talented and extremely intelligent?
Before Bai Jie could say anything else, a young man in a suit and tie hurried over, apologizing as he walked, "Boss Bai, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Bai Jie introduced with a smile: "This is Xiao Wang. Xiao Wang knows everyone well, and most of the time my news is given by Xiao Wang."
Xiao Wang said with a smile all over his face: "My meal is not rewarded by Boss Bai, otherwise I would be hungry."
On weekdays, as long as Xiao Wang took him to buy good things, Bai Jie would always give him hundreds of thousands of hard-earned money.This money is much higher than the wages of many office workers.Xiao Wang is also very concerned about Bai Jie, as long as he knows there is something good, Bai Jie will be the first thing he thinks of.
"Boss Bai, I've already inquired about the place. How do you think we'll get there?"
Bai Jie couldn't help turning his gaze to He Xingjun.
He Xingjun thought for a while: "Old Bai, you two go ahead, and I will drive behind."
"Okay, Third Young Master." Bai Jie nodded in agreement, and led Xiao Wang into his car.
Xiao Wang asked cautiously on the road: "Boss Bai, what is this guy's background? He looks very impressive."
Bai Jie smiled, and pointed to the top: "Come out from there, do you think the style can be small?"
Xiao Wang took a deep breath: "Boss Bai, you bring such a big man there, in case someone sees something..."
Bai Jie snorted: "Do you think it's more important to have a few old gadgets, or to have a good relationship with such a person?"
Xiao Wang gave a thumbs up: "Boss Bai, you are really tall."
Listening to Xiao Wang imitating the words in the movie, Bai Jie couldn't help laughing out loud.
What he said was from the bottom of his heart. It was luck to meet such a character.Being able to have a good relationship is the best of luck.
In He Xingjun's car, He Bin was full of excitement, "Linlin, how many treasures do you think we can find this time?"
Xiao Lin really didn't understand that He Bin's ability to appraise treasures was not very good, but why did his enthusiasm for treasure hunting not diminish?
"Second brother, when we get to a place, we still focus on looking. Sometimes it's best to look more, ask more, and buy less."
"Are you saying there is fraud in it?"
"No. But there are too many middlemen, and sometimes it's not a good thing."
He Xu heard the words and said, "Do you think that Xiao Wang is unreliable?"
Xiao Lin shook his head: "No. I just think that someone told Xiao Wang about this place, and Xiao Wang told Boss Bai, and Boss Bai called us. If it's really profitable, why didn't he do it himself?"
"Maybe it's because you don't have enough money?" He Bin put forward his own opinion.
"If you can earn tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands, do you think you can save the opportunity for us now?"
He Xingjun said while driving: "Linlin, you still can see clearly. We will follow your command when the time comes. After all, you are a professional, and we are all amateurs."
What He Xingjun said was interesting, and the three younger ones all laughed.
The car turned around and turned, and finally stopped in front of a courtyard.
After getting off the car, Xiao Wang said: "This yard is for an old couple. Later, when the old lady got sick, the old man divided it into several rooms and rented it out. Now the old lady is getting more and more sick, and she only relies on the rent to pay the house. I couldn't afford the medicine, so I had to sell a few valuable things in the house. Because it was used to pay for medical treatment, they would definitely not sell it if it was cheaper." After speaking, Xiao Wang smiled embarrassedly, "I asked..."
Everyone smiled tacitly, knowing that Xiao Wang had hit a wall by himself and didn't have enough money, so they introduced Bai Jie here to earn some money.
Seeing the big guys coming down, Xiao Wang stepped forward and called the door: "Is anyone there? Master Zhang, I'm Xiao Wang, and I'm here again. This time I'm bringing my friends over. Please open the door quickly..."
Several people waited outside for five or six minutes before someone came to open the door.
Xiao Lin raised his eyes and saw that it was an old man in his 60s. For some reason, Xiao Lin felt that there was something wrong with this old man at first glance, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
"Xiao Wang, why are you here again? I've already said that I won't sell the things that are passed down from my ancestors for thousands of dollars." The old man opened the door and couldn't help complaining.
Xiao Wang smiled bitterly: "Master Zhang, I can't afford it, but I brought guests here today. If your stuff is really good, the guests can afford it."
Master Zhang sighed: "Oh! If my wife can't get out of bed, why would I bother to sell these family treasures." After speaking, he looked at Bai Jie and He Xingjun, "Come with the old man."
After entering the gate, I found that there were people coming and going in this courtyard, and I don't know how many people lived there.
Master Zhang lived in the three west rooms on one side, and opened the thick cotton curtain, Master Zhang gestured: "Please come in."
I didn't feel much outside, but when I entered the room, Xiao Lin suddenly felt a little suffocated, because the smell inside was too bad.
I can't tell what it smells like, but it's very pungent.
There was only one small window in the room, which was tightly covered with a quilt to prevent the patient from being exposed to the wind.
It's so dark in the house now that it's hard to see what's inside.
Master Zhang sighed heavily again: "Life is poor, and electricity bills can be saved as much as possible. We are the old couple at home on weekdays, and we don't turn on the lights at all. But we are used to it, you must not, brother, let me let you Pull out the light."
Seeing Master Zhang pointing at him, He Bin leaned closer to Xiao Lin. When Master Zhang turned on the lamp, he realized that it was a small five-watt light bulb. The dim light could only illuminate a few figures. .
But people have just explained that there is no money to use electricity, so it is not easy to complain about this at the moment.
He Xingjun didn't want to stay any longer because the smell was too bad.But seeing that his two nephews tried their best to endure, Xiao Lin, who was like a small adult, didn't even open his mouth, so he could only force himself to stay.
Bai Jie kept paying attention to He Xingjun's expression. Seeing that the other party was frowning, he knew that the other party was not satisfied, so he hurriedly said, "Xiao Wang, what are you talking about? Let's take a look."
Xiao Wang looked at Master Zhang: "Master Zhang, do you still have what I read that day?"
Master Zhang said: "The censer has been bought away, and there are not many things left. You sit down first, and I will get it for you."
After speaking, he entered the back room.
Xiao Wang explained: "The room on the left is for Mr. Zhang's sick wife, and the room on the right is for some old things from their home. Usually when guests come, they usually wait outside.
He Xingjun waved his hand: "Old Bai, hurry up and buy something after you get it later, I can't take it anymore."
Bai Jie nodded, "Of course, to be honest, Third Young Master, I can't stand it anymore."
Xiao Lin was about to sit down, but unexpectedly, under the dim light, he discovered that the tables in front of him were made of rosewood.
Not long ago, Mr. Huang explained to him the identification method of red sandalwood, and he was sure that these cases were made of red sandalwood, and they were still old objects.
However, this doesn't make sense.
Red sandalwood furniture was used only by emperors in Ming and Qing dynasties.Only the royal family has the power to buy rosewood in Nanyang.All countries paid tribute, and they also paid tribute to the emperor, but the people could not get it at all.Later, red sandalwood also appeared in the local area, but it was also used by the local princes and nobles.What is the origin of this master Zhang, that there is such a precious thing in the house?
He Xingjun frowned slightly upon hearing this.But at this moment, Bai Jie had already taken out his phone and made a call.
The middleman can be regarded as an acquaintance of Bai Jie, and Bai Jie has already bought a lot of good things through his introduction.This time he heard that He Xingjun wanted to collect things, so he wanted to take him over there, since size is a personal favor.

After entering the gate, I found that there were people coming and going in this courtyard, and I don't know how many people lived there.
