The Charming Life of Rebirth
Chapter 44
"How do you sell this incense burner?" Since he felt something was wrong, Xiao Lin naturally wanted to buy it and study it carefully.
Bruno is in a good mood after he has made such a big deal.Seeing that Xiao Lin was asking about the worn-out censer, and there was no lion opening his mouth, he smiled and said, "Sir, this censer only costs two hundred francs." After finishing speaking, Bruno thought to himself: This Chinese is really Weird, just love these rusty things.
Xiao Lin thought about it for a while and said, "Okay, please wrap this incense burner for me too."
After looking at other things, Xiao Lin picked out a suet jade bottle and a blue and white plate. He didn't like the others very much, so he followed Bruno out of the underground collection room.
When he came to the store, Xiao Lin swiped his card to pay, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.This time it was truly his.
"Mr. Bruno, you said that Viscount Brissac has a vineyard to sell?"
"Yes, it is a very large and beautiful vineyard. Unfortunately, the Viscount Brissac asked for 800 million francs, which I cannot afford." Bruno said with some regret.
"Then can you contact the Viscount Brissac for me? I am very interested in his manor and want to meet him."
"Really?" Bruno was overjoyed when he heard that, if he could help Viscount Brissac sell the manor at a high price, then he would definitely benefit a lot.
You know, although the Viscount Brissac offered 800 million francs, no one cares about it now.
The Viscount Brissac is in urgent need of cash flow. If it takes a while longer, he may be willing to sell it for 500 million francs.
Xiao Lin nodded, feeling a little strange that Bruno asked again. "Mr. Bruno, I have the intention to buy it, but whether to buy it or not depends on whether the viscount's manor is really as beautiful as you said."
"I understand, sir. Please leave your phone number and I will let you know as soon as I have any news." Bruno's attitude towards Xiao Lin became more respectful. He is so rich at such a young age, this gentleman is definitely not an ordinary person .
Xiao Lin left his phone number and walked out of Bruno's antique shop with He Xu.
"Brother, I'm sorry." After coming out of the antique shop, seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Lin couldn't help feeling guilty.
I was supposed to take my eldest brother shopping, but when I saw the antiques, I couldn't help but want to buy them.
He Xu patted his head, smiled indulgently, and said, "What are you talking about? Linlin? I am very happy to be able to go shopping with you."
On the way home, He Xu couldn't hide his curiosity and asked: "Linlin, these things are different from the treasures you usually find."
Xiao Lin smiled mysteriously, "Brother, wait until we get back. This trip is worthwhile."
"No wonder you asked to see the Viscount. Do you think this person will have some treasures at home?"
Xiao Lin shook his head, "I really wanted to see the viscount because he heard that he had a vineyard to deal with. Didn't Mr. Bruno say that all the treasures in the viscount's family have been dealt with?"
"Really for the vineyard?"
"Of course, the vineyards in Bordeaux. If there is a bargain, I will naturally sell it."
"Cheap? Are you optimistic about the grape farm?" He Xu knew Xiao Lin very well. If there was no benefit, Xiao Lin would not easily sell
"Hehe, I just like to drink French wine." Xiao Lin smirked, trying to get away with it.
He Xu frowned immediately when he heard the words: "You are still dissatisfied, and dare to drink, be careful, I will go back and tell grandpa."
"Brother, I just drank a little, that's all. Don't tell grandpa." Xiao Lin repeatedly begged for mercy.
"Forget it this time. If you dare to drink again next time, be careful and punish."
"Can I promise not to drink?" Xiao Lin begged for mercy again.I sighed secretly in my heart, big brother is so domineering!
The two laughed and laughed all the way back to the villa.
Ouyang Rui slept for a whole day, and now he heard a voice, and walked out flickeringly.
"Linlin, where did you take He Xu to play?" After speaking, he yawned big.
He Xu said: "Ouyang, you became lazy when you arrived in France. What time did you wake up."
Ouyang Rui lazily leaned on the sofa, secretly complaining in his heart: "He Xu, if you are tortured all night, you won't be able to get up."
It's a pity that I can't say this clearly, I can only keep my mouth shut.
Seeing them moving a pile of big and small boxes, Ouyang Rui couldn't help but become curious: "He Xu, why did you take Linlin with you? How did you get back so many boxes?"
He Xu replied: "Linlin bought them all, they are all antiques, don't underestimate these boxes, they cost tens of thousands of francs."
"So expensive?" Ouyang Rui was speechless.Although he was rich, he would never spend tens of thousands on some boxes.
Xiao Lin didn't care about other things, and carefully took out the Xuande furnace he bought.
The surface of this Xuande furnace looks very ordinary, and it is full of rust. It looks worthless at all.That's why Bruno didn't charge a high price.
Seeing Xiao Lin's excited face, He Xu couldn't help but knocked him on the head: "Linlin, don't be fooled, tell me quickly, what's so special about this incense burner?"
Xiao Lin touched the Xuande furnace, and the corners of his mouth raised proudly, "Brother, this is a treasure, a super rare treasure."
"I can't tell!" Ouyang Rui heard Xiao Lin's words, walked up to him and looked up and down several times, but he still didn't see anything unusual about this incense burner.
"He Xu, do you see how this broken incense burner looks like a treasure?" Ouyang Rui couldn't see it, so he asked He Xu.
He Xu also shook his head, he really didn't see it.
Xiao Lin laughed from ear to ear.He remembered that Grandpa Huang had told him that apart from the simplest cover-up method of smearing paint on the outside of the baby, there was another way to conceal the eyes, which was to use some rust or dirt to hide the baby.
In fact, the rust on it is not real, it is formulated with special substances.
The first time Xiao Lin saw this Xuande furnace, he felt that something was wrong. Its rusted places were too concentrated and regular.Definitely not natural.After getting it in hand, this feeling is even more obvious.
After asking about the price, which was only [-] francs, Xiao Lindang decided to buy it.Anyway, it is not expensive, if it is different from what he thinks, even if it costs [-] francs to pay the tuition, but if it is really the treasure in imagination, it is really a surprise to buy this incense burner for [-] francs.
"Linlin, is this really a treasure?" Ouyang Rui couldn't help asking again seeing Xiao Lin holding the incense burner and not letting go.
"It's hard to say now, you will know in a while."
Xiao Lin was thinking about how to get rid of the rust on the Xuande furnace intact.
After thinking about it, Xiao Lin went to the utility room and mixed a basin of special liquid.
"Linlin, what are you doing here?" Ouyang Rui looked at the strangely colored liquid in the basin strangely.
"Hehe." Xiao Lin smiled, "If you want the baby to show its true colors, you have to rely on these liquids."
"You mean the rust spots can be washed off?"
Ouyang Rui picked up the censer curiously and looked it over. From the appearance, this censer is really ugly. If it was him, he would not want it for nothing.
"Yes, it should be possible. Grandpa Huang taught me. Wait a moment." After Xiao Lin finished speaking, he picked up a towel, dipped it in the liquid in the basin, and gently wiped the rust on the incense burner. The marks can be wiped off.
Both Ouyang Rui and He Xu stood beside Xiao Lin, watching the incense burner slowly return to its original appearance.
After the rust was completely wiped off, Xiao Lin picked up the censer and held it up to the sunlight to admire it carefully.
The shape is simple, the patina is warm and moist, the treasure is contained inside, and the charm is unique.Whether it is the overall or partial design, it is intriguing.The font of the base is deep and powerful, with vivid and natural strokes, and every feature echoes the authentic Xuande furnace introduced by Huang Wei.
Ouyang Rui and He Xu looked at each other, and they both saw the surprise on the other's face.Unexpectedly, such a rusty copper stove exudes infinite charm after being wiped clean.
"It's so beautiful!" Xiao Lin couldn't help admiring after watching it carefully.
"Linlin, you are so amazing that you can really wipe off the rust spots!" Ouyang Rui couldn't help but marvel.
Xiao Lin smiled wryly and said, "Brother, you think highly of me. The rust spots on it are just a cover-up, not real rust."
"Is the rust fake? Why do people make such a good incense burner rusty? Do you think it looks too good?" Ouyang Rui couldn't help asking, looking at the completely different incense burner in front of him.
Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, then explained: "Brother, this should be the genuine Xuande Furnace from the third year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty, an antique at the national treasure level. If no one covered it up, how could it have returned to our hands today?"
Ouyang Rui thought for a while and said, "That's right, if it was so beautiful, even I wouldn't sell it."
He Xu also stared at the Xuande stove for a while, then nodded, this incense burner is indeed amazingly charming.
"Then how much is this thing worth?" This is what Ouyang Rui is most concerned about.
"It's hard to say, how can it be worth a million now, and the value will probably be even higher in the future." Xiao Lin gave a very conservative estimate.
"Worth 100 million?" Ouyang Rui was stunned. Such an incense burner is worth a million?More expensive than a lot of jewelry.
Xiao Lin nodded, "This is still my conservative estimate. If it goes up for auction, it should be worth more."
He Xu looked at Xiao Lin quietly from the side, and he knew that there was definitely a reason for Lin Lin's action.What you buy for two hundred francs is worth a million in the blink of an eye.It's better than any business.
"Brother, do you know the Viscount Brissac?" Xiao Lin thought that Ouyang Rui had been in France for many years, so he should know something about the French nobles.
"Viscount Brissac? What do you ask him to do?" Ouyang Rui raised his eyebrows, "This man is very active in the upper class, and he is a famous playboy. It's best to avoid dealing with such people."
Bruno is in a good mood after he has made such a big deal.Seeing that Xiao Lin was asking about the worn-out censer, and there was no lion opening his mouth, he smiled and said, "Sir, this censer only costs two hundred francs." After finishing speaking, Bruno thought to himself: This Chinese is really Weird, just love these rusty things.
