Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

For example, West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, Dongpo pork, deep-fried bell peppers, etc. Shang Baochang treated us warmly and specially ordered these ten signature dishes.

The atmosphere at the table was harmonious. Shang Baochang did not mention anything about the endorsement. Some things should just go with the flow, as long as everyone knows it.

Because the auction will be held tomorrow, the topics of discussion at the table mainly revolve around calligraphy and painting, antiques and jade. There is a close connection between jewelry and antiques.

Shang Baochang not only runs a jewelry company, but he also loves antiques and has collected dozens of treasures of varying sizes, making him a semi-expert.

After a conversation, Shang Baochang discovered that his young friend Zhou Qi had extraordinary knowledge in the field of antiques.

Whether it is porcelain, calligraphy and painting, bronze ware or small accessories, Zhou Qi has his own unique insights and can even tell some related anecdotes.

What is even more surprising is that for several collections that Shang Baochang is proud of, Zhou Qi can not only explain their historical background, but can also roughly explain the origins of these treasures and even the purchasing channels, which is truly impressive.

"Mr. Zhou, I never thought that at such a young age, you have not only created a miracle like Hualong in the business world, but you are also an expert in the field of antique calligraphy and painting."

Shang Baochang became more and more curious about Zhou Qi, and he couldn't help but feel a little admiration for him.

The antique industry values ​​experience and profound cultural heritage.

Although Shang Baochang had been involved in this field for many years, he only considered himself an insider and did not dare to call himself an expert. It was incredible that Zhou Qi could possess such extensive knowledge at the age of twenty.

"Mr. Shang, you are too kind. I just happen to know something about the items you mentioned. In terms of expertise, I am far inferior to you." Zhou Qi responded modestly.

These words are not false.

What a coincidence, Zhou Qi just knew these famous things. He heard some stories through various channels, and he didn't know all of them, but he could still tell them to add some fun to everyone.

Shang Baochang and Du Bowen thought Zhou Qi was too modest.

"Xiao Zhou, I know a little about calligraphy and painting, but not as well as you." Du Bowen said with a smile.

"If you see something good at the auction tomorrow, please help me take a look."

Shang Baochang followed suit and said, "Please help me take a look too. Actually, I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. I once spent 300,000 yuan to buy a fake product, and I was fooled by the seller. Since then, I have been very careful. I feel much more relieved that Mr. Zhou is willing to help."

Zhou** knew that this was something that could not be pushed away.

"Boss Shang, Brother Du, if I come across something I know, I will definitely help. But in the antique business, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. I still have to learn a lot from you two. You are the experts."

Shang Zizhe was watching from the side, looking very unhappy - why are you pretending? But in this situation, he didn't dare to say much, and could only vent his anger on the chicken on the plate, biting it very hard, as if the meat had a grudge against him.

Du Bowen said to Shang Baochang, "Old Shang, do you know that Xiao Zhou not only understands antiques and calligraphy, but is also very knowledgeable about jade. He only took one look at the three jade pendants and knew they were glass jade. Most people can't do that."

"Mr. Zhou, you are so surprising." Shang Baochang said.

"You are proficient in antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and jade, and you are also very successful in business. I really want to know if there is anything you don't understand."

Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Boss Shang, those three jade pendants are really good, and the material is rare."

"It's great if you like it." Shang Baochang said.

"I put a lot of thought into those three jade pendants. If Lao Du hadn't asked to give them to you, I wouldn't have given them to anyone else. They are the treasures of the store."

Du Bowen continued, "Of course I have to choose carefully when giving gifts to Xiao Zhou's children and family. If you hadn't taken the trouble to find them, I wouldn't have appreciated them."

Shang Baochang and Shang Zizhe were both stunned when they heard this. Shang Baochang looked at Zhou Qi and said, "Mr. Zhou, are you married?"

Zhou Qi smiled: "Yes, my child can almost go out to buy soy sauce by himself."

When Shang Zizhe heard this, he immediately became interested.

In this way, the relationship between Zhou Qi and Du Qianqian is not the kind he is worried about. Since Zhou Qi already has a family and children, Du Bowen will naturally not let his daughter have any inappropriate relationship with Zhou Qi.

Shang Zizhe was confused by Du Qianqian's previous behavior. But soon, he had the answer in his mind - she was testing him, or teasing him on purpose.

Apart from this, there is really no other reasonable explanation. Thinking of this, his attitude towards Zhou Qi also became friendly, and he was secretly happy in his heart: it seems that as long as he behaves better, there will be hope.

"Qianqian, come and try some of this abalone soup. It's not only delicious, but also good for beautifying your skin. Let me serve you a bowl." Shang Zize suggested enthusiastically and prepared to get up and go to the kitchen.

"No, thank you." Du Qianqian refused politely but coldly.

"You don't eat abalone, then..." Shang Zizhe's eyes swept across the dining table.

"Then you should have some chicken!" He said, not noticing the sudden silence around him, and continued: "Here, I'll get you a piece."

Du Qianqian's face darkened instantly. Whether he meant it or not, this sentence sounded too much.

She pushed the dish in front of her away, ignored Shang Zizhe, and leaned towards Zhou Qi. Now, the atmosphere at the scene became even more awkward.

Shang Zizhe then realized that his words might cause misunderstanding, and hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant, I just wanted to pick up some chicken for Qianqian..."

Shang Baochang, who was standing by, had a livid face, and was obviously dissatisfied with his son's behavior: "Why did you stand up? You are really making a fuss. Sit down quickly."

"I'm not joking. I just want to offer a glass of wine to Mr. Zhou to thank him for coming here." Shang Zizhe hurriedly found a step down and tried to ease the tense atmosphere by toasting.

Zhou Qi smiled slightly, nodded in understanding, raised his glass and clinked it with Shang Zizhe's. Even so, he still felt that Shang Zizhe was indeed a little unintelligent.

At the dinner that followed, everyone tried to avoid more twists and turns. But Shang Zizhe barely ate anything.

Because he found that Du Qianqian's hand was gently placed on Zhou Qi's leg. This action was too intimate, which made Shang Zizhe feel mixed emotions. He really wanted to rush up and grab Zhou Qi to ask him about it.

But who cares about his feelings?

Only Shang Baochang would occasionally glare at him, as if to say, "Be quiet."

This made Shang Zizhe even angrier. He felt that everyone was targeting him, especially Du Bowen - his daughter was having an affair with someone else, but he pretended not to see it.

And Du Qianqian, she clearly knew how good Shang Zizhe was to her, so why did she throw herself into the arms of Zhou Qi, who had a family? This not only made Shang Zizhe lose face, but also made him feel very uncomfortable.
