"Are you sure you don't want to accept it? I really want to use this as a birthday gift for you."

Chen Ning looked at Zhao Haishan and said with a smile.

Zhao Haishan's expression changed and he hesitated several times, but finally nodded.

When Chen Ning saw this, he stopped talking nonsense and directly took back the scroll and placed it beside him.

Yu Youshui looked at it with extremely hot eyes and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Come on, let's eat. The food will be cold by the time we serve it. Originally, it was Chen Ning who was taking the wind, but now there is an additional old man Yu, so he will be taking the wind for you all."

Zhao Haishan endured the pain in his heart and just changed the topic to the dinner table.

The food is sumptuous and the wine is high-end.

But the food of several people present was a little tasteless.

"This good luck is getting worse and worse. What kind of food is this?"

After Zhao Haishan toasted Chen Ning and Yu Youshui with a glass of wine, he frowned after taking a bite of the food.

"I ate quite well. Old Zhao, your mood has affected your appetite!"

Yu Youshui ate very well and couldn't help but tease Zhao Haishan.

"It's really not that good. It's far worse than what Chen Ning did!"

Zhao Jie also commented seriously.

As for Chen Ning, he had just finished eating. Whether it tasted good or not, he didn't even take two bites.

Just had a little drink with two old guys.

"Huh? Xiaoyou Chen also has superb cooking skills?"

Yu Youshui was stunned when he heard Zhao Jie's words.

Then he looked at Chen Ning curiously.

"That's because you don't know how amazing Chen Ning's cooking skills are. When we first met... I will never forget the taste of that beggar's chicken in my life."

Zhao Haishan also recalled going into the mountains to seek medical treatment and smelling the smell of the beggar's chicken cooked by Chen Ning.

In fact, Zhao Haishan was seriously ill at the time and had not had a good meal for a long time.

The fragrance that people smell when they are hungry is often memorable.

Of course, the beggar's chicken made by Chen Ning is indeed delicious.

"I own a restaurant, and being a chef is my current official occupation."

Chen Ning said with a slight smile, then raised his glass to the two old men, and then took a sip of the wine.

Regardless of the taste of the food, this wine is still okay.

"What? Chen Xiaoyou opens a restaurant and becomes a chef? This..."

Yu Youshui's eyes widened after hearing Chen Ning's words.

Not to mention anything else, with Chen Ning's knowledge of sculptures and ability to identify antiques, he wouldn't be able to become a chef, right?

"Stop your big teeth. Brother Chen is a chef. I have eaten at his restaurant."

Zhao Haishan felt somewhat proud when he saw You Shui's appearance.

He even had a little impulse to tell him that Chen Ning's medical skills were even better.

However, after thinking about it, Zhao Haishan finally resisted the urge.

Chen Ning wanted to keep a low profile and was afraid of trouble. It would be fine if he revealed it to others, but if others talked nonsense, it would definitely make him unhappy.

Yu Youshui immediately lost interest in eating, and his attention was basically focused on Chen Ning.

What kind of young man is this?

Halfway through the banquet, Chen Ning and the three of them all drank two glasses of white wine.

At this time, Chen Ning received a call from Lu Fang, who took Ding Chengwu and his father to Zhao Jie's house.

Chen Ning asked Lu Fang to settle the two of them first, and he would go back soon.

"Chen Xiaoyou, let me tell you, although my carving cannot reach the level of a master, I am still one of the best masters in Longxia. Tomorrow I will send the work for auction temporarily, but there is a good chance that I can get an appointment with Master Guishou!"

Yu Youshui's drinking capacity was obviously not very good, and he was a little drunk after two drinks. He didn't respond to Chen Ning's call. He grabbed Chen Ning's hand and brought the conversation back to the topic of jade carvings.

I guess he is still holding his breath because of Chen Ning's evaluation of his works.

"Can we also send it for temporary appraisal?"

Chen Ning was slightly startled.

He originally planned to find an opportunity after dinner to hand over his jade carving to Zhao Haishan and ask him to arrange for the photo to be taken on the jade plaque he carved.

"Yeah, it seems you didn't pay attention to any of the auction house's rules."

Zhao Jie was speechless on the side, and then explained to Chen Ning.

It turns out that there is a live event in this auction, that is, everyone who participates in the auction can submit their own things for auction on the spot.

Of course, there will be an appraiser to appraise it first, and only those who are qualified can auction it on the spot.

As for the jade carving, there will be some fixed conditions from Master Ghost Hands, and once they are met, they will be able to make an appointment.

When Chen Ning heard this rule, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​using Zhao Haishan to help.

If it's not convenient for you at that time, you can wait for Yugang to come and let him send it up.

This would be a lot less troublesome than asking Zhao Haishan to send it up.

Chen Ning had something to do here, so he had another drink.

The two old men were obviously drunk.

"Mr. Zhao, if you don't want to receive this painting as a gift, are you interested in buying it? If you are not interested, please help me send this message to the auction house for bidding."

Before Chen Ning was about to leave, he took out the scroll box that he had put aside.

"You want to sell this painting? I'll buy it, I'll buy it, but don't put it up for auction!"

Zhao Haishan, who was slightly confused, was stunned by Chen Ning's sudden decision, and then he came back to his senses and said again and again.

"I'll buy it too. Little friend Chen, you can't favor one over the other. Why are you just asking him? I'm not a poor man either!"

When Yu Youshui heard the conversation between the two, he was immediately dissatisfied and shouted that he wanted to buy the water painting.

Chen Ning smiled slightly and said: "Since you all want it, then the one with the highest price will get it, and we will also hold a small auction!"
