cute naive

The three of them stayed in Zhenjiang for two days, and then went to Suzhou via Jiangyin and Changshu. They stayed in Suzhou for more than ten days, eating Jiangnan delicacies and drinking Biluochun every day, visiting several old library sites, and buying ancient books, calligraphy and paintings in Confucian Temple.

Song Wenyuan also bought a longevity lock made of jade. The jade made by Su is exquisite, dexterous, exquisite and wonderful. The small space of this longevity lock is engraved with a pair of fish playing in the water. There are also eight auspicious words chiseled: never leave, never give up, long life and well-being.

Kang Tianzhen stretched his neck and asked him to hang it on himself, and fiddled with the jade lock on his neck with his paw, "It feels like a dog tag."

Hong Yang said expressionlessly, "Please give me the dog tag of Suanzhiyu."

"Short oil, Yang Yang is jealous," Kang Tianzhen squinted his eyes with a smile, put his arms around Song Wenyuan's neck in the street and kissed him, and said loudly, "Song Wenyuan, I'm in love with you again!"

Song Wenyuan smiled and tore him off his body, "There are people coming and going on the street, so avoid it to some extent."

"Why?" Kang Tianzhen looked at him blankly, "I like you, what should I avoid?"

Song Wenyuan was startled, not knowing how to explain it, so he gave a wry smile and rubbed his hair, "Oh, let's go."

Leaving Suzhou Road, Kang Tianzhen lay on the back seat peeling lotus pods. In summer, there are fresh lotus pods picked in bamboo baskets in the streets and alleys of Suzhou. The lotus seeds peeled out are sweet and delicious. Kang Tianzhen likes it very much. In the trunk of the car, I plan to eat all the way to Ningbo.

"When we return to Nanjing this time, I'm afraid it will be mid-August." Hong Yang sat in the car wearing sunglasses and asked casually, "When is our store going to open?"

"September," Song Wenyuan sat in the passenger seat and flipped through some comic books, and said calmly, "Golden nine and silver ten."

Kang Tianzhen got up, stretched his arm over, and stuffed a handful of peeled lotus seeds into his mouth, "September [-]st? Good idea, it happens to be the beginning of school season."

Song Wenyuan chewed the crisp and tender lotus seeds, his mouth was fragrant, and he said with a smile, "You are just talking nonsense. If you can go to our store to buy things, which one will be a student?"

"Me, if I want to go to school now, I'll be a top student," Kang Tianzhen said with a smile, and then peeled off a few more and stuffed them into his mouth, "It's just that I don't want to go to school now."

Song Wenyuan said, "I regret not being able to enjoy a few days of college time."

"If you want to go to school, I can accompany you to go to school," Kang Tianzhen was whimsical, "We can take the college entrance examination next year. With our talents, it shouldn't be a problem for us to pass the postgraduate entrance examination."

"Are you an idiot?" Hong Yang sneered, "Graduate students don't get out of the college entrance examination at all."

Kang Tian was ignorant, "Isn't it the college entrance examination? Could it be the civil service examination? No, you must be fooling me..."

"...Who cares to let you be an illiterate?" Hong Yang said disdainfully, "Today, in the whole car, only my brother and I have taken the college entrance examination, and even your husband is a child who has dropped out of school. I am the authority, understand?"

Kang Tianzhen looked at Song Wenyuan with pity in his eyes, "He said you are a child out of school."

Song Wenyuan smiled, "Barely, it's just a bit old."

"You are so pitiful," Kang Tianzhen leaned over, hugged the passenger seat with one hand, and touched Song Wenyuan's face with the other, leaning forward to kiss him.

Song Wenyuan pecked and wanted to back away, but Kang Tianzhen's grip was tighter, and he couldn't bear to refuse the kiss full of love.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, Hong Yang glanced at them subconsciously, and was immediately blinded by the overflowing pink bubbles, "Damn!!! Where's the shame of you two???"

"I've eaten it, woof woof~" Kang Tianzhen finished the kiss, licking his lips with satisfaction, his eyes were full of happiness as sweet as honey.

Hong Yang was in a bad mood, he wanted to kick these two dog abusers out of the car one by one.

With a smile in the corner of Kang Tianzhen's eyes, he peeled a handful of lotus seeds and stuffed them into Song Wenyuan's mouth, "I pulled out the lotus core, so it won't be bitter."

"Well," Song Wenyuan nodded, "It's really much better."

Hong Yang felt unbalanced, "Hey, what about my share?"

"Here is yours," Kang Tianzhen stuffed him with a lotus core with a pure face, and Hong Yang burst into tears in an instant, "...Little...Bitch...People!"

Kang Tianzhen laughed out loud, rolling in the back seat with joy, peeled a white and tender lotus seed and stuffed it into Song Wenyuan's mouth, and asked tenderly, "How is it?"

Song Wenyuan smiled and nodded, "That's a good time."

Hong Yang drove the car with a blank expression, with kelp tears in his heart: why did he come out with these two people?what?what?what?

Dry!

They stayed in Huzhou for a week, then took a detour to Haiyan to Hangzhou, and visited Yuyao for three days. It was the end of July when they finally arrived in Ningbo. Fenghua peaches were on the market in large numbers, with thin skin, tender flesh, juicy and sweet taste. It's going to break Kang Tianzhen.

The three sat in the Zhuangyuan building and ate rock candy soft-shelled turtle and Ningbo drunk crab. Hong Yang came back from the bathroom, drank a glass of glutinous rice wine, and said to Song Wenyuan, "Coincidentally, guess what the two people I met in the bathroom were discussing?" ?”

"what?"

"A local collector passed away and left behind a lot of antiques. His son settled in the United States. There are a few antiques that cannot be taken out of the country and are being prepared to sell."

Kang Tianzhen looked at him curiously with a yellow croaker tail in his mouth.

Hong Yang said excitedly, "Do you know what luck is? This is luck, really, maybe you really are our mascot," he took out a business card, "This is the contact information of that person just now, Wen Yuan, I think we should go there, maybe there are good things that open the door?"

Song Wenyuan pondered for a moment, "Why would he trust us? Isn't it better to send antiques with an orderly inheritance to the auction house?"

"The auction house has too many procedures, and the cash is too slow," Hong Yang lowered his voice, "I made a side note just now, saying that there are a few antiques that cannot be auctioned."

Song Wenyuan asked vigilantly, "Antiques that cannot be auctioned...are they not clean?"

"You mean tomb robbers? No way, serious collectors probably won't accept goods from tomb thieves," Hong Yang said, "I think it's some ancient bronze wares. There are clear regulations on this." Can't be photographed."

"It's hard to say," Song Wenyuan frowned slightly, "The more collectors, the easier it is to take risks. They are too obsessed with antiques and have no resistance to antiques."

After Kang Tianzhen finished eating a fish, he interrupted, "No matter what, you have to watch it first before drawing conclusions."

Song Wenyuan nodded, "Then Hongyang, you go to contact, we will find a time to come and have a look."

The seller is a Chinese-American, wearing a neat suit with a white handkerchief in his pocket. He always likes to mix a few English words in Chinese when speaking, and exaggerated body movements along the way, making everyone's eyes straight.

"Daddy loved these antiques very much during his lifetime, and checked them several times a day," the seller said, "especially this Xuande Salan Big Bowl, I just can't put it down."

Hong Yang turned his head in pain, "Can this buddy speak seriously? I'm almost constipated."

"His English is so strange," Kang Tianzhen curled his lips, "Can't you honestly talk about that Xuande sprinkled blue bowl with fish and algae patterns? What is a big bowl?"

Hong Yang asked, "I heard that you can tell the authenticity of porcelain at a glance. Take a look at this big bowl. Is it genuine?"

"The blue glaze was sprinkled in a typical Xuande period. It was as blue as a gem." Kang Tianzhen's eyes shot at the big bowl like X-rays, "It's a real official kiln."

Hong Yang nodded, "Then you can rest assured."

Song Wenyuan was indifferent, and nodded after listening to the seller's introduction, "Your father is really good at antiques."

"Urse," the seller clapped his hands violently, "Daddy also has an extremely precious ing in his collection. I originally wanted to bring it to LA. Since I have fate with you handsome guys, I will give it to you together."

As he spoke, he took out a scroll with a very complicated packaging from the museum shelf in the study room. After taking it out, he distributed a mask and a pair of white gloves to each of the three people, and opened the scroll carefully after everyone was armed.

The tip of the iceberg was exposed in the profound landscape painting. Kang Tianzhen's eyes widened suddenly, staring at his movements without turning. The man slowly opened the scroll, and the three of them couldn't help being shocked.

——This is a large-scale landscape painting, with equal emphasis on brush and ink, ink stamps with water halos, and a poem written on it with flowing clouds and flowing water: the spring river tide connects the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea coexists with tides... The calligraphy style is elegant and the brushwork is skillful, just look at it , you know it is a rare boutique.

Kang Tianzhen murmured, "It turned out to be "Moonlight Night on the Spring River"...It turned out to be...the authentic work of Jing Hao, a famous artist in the late Tang Dynasty..."

The seller smiled triumphantly, "As I said, it is extremely precious."

The three people appreciated it one by one, and Hong Yang was extremely excited, "Are you sure it's the real thing? Wen Yuan, how sure are you?"

Song Wenyuan carefully read it over and over again, put down the magnifying glass, and said with a wry smile, "If this is not the authentic work, it can only be said that the counterfeiter's skill is too deep, whether it is the style of painting or calligraphy, or even these collection seals, this is hardly normal. Humans can do it."

Hong Yang said, "I naively looked at the blue glaze just now, and I was sure it was genuine. It seems that this old collector who passed away was quite capable. Compared with his other collections, this painting is not a fake. "

Song Wenyuan thought for a while, nodded, and the three of them discussed for a while, unanimously confirming that it is genuine.

The seller has a business in the United States and does not make a living by buying and selling antiques. Seeing that these three people are really passionate about antiques, they even took the initiative to lower the price. In the end, the painting "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" and several other antiques were sold at a price of 700 million For Song Wenyuan, as for the few pieces that could not be auctioned, they were indeed bronzes that had not been unearthed for a long time. Song Wenyuan and the three of them had no intention of collecting this, so they did not buy it.

The three of them ate and drank in Ningbo for a few more days, took the messy local products that Kang Tianzhen had bought in various places, and returned to Nanjing singing songs.

The shops on the Antique Street have been renovated. There is a Ming-style furniture in the middle, and Bobao Pavilion stands on the two walls. Song Wenyuan placed the antiques in his collection one by one, looking at this antique shop with satisfaction.

Kang Tianzhen came in with a statue of Guan Gong in his arms, "I invited a God of Wealth to come back, hurry up, find a place to put it up."

The two of them worked for a long time, arranged the God of Wealth, lit the incense, and Song Wenyuan looked at the statue of Guan Gong suspiciously, "Why does it look familiar to me?"

Kang Tianzhen looked innocent, "Doesn't the God of Wealth look like this? If you look familiar, it means that you have dealt with the God of Wealth before. Come and get rich."

Song Wenyuan dispelled his doubts and rubbed his hair, "You know a lot."

"Of course." Kang Tianzhen pecked his lips affectionately, "I'm innocent with both talent and beauty."

At the same time, a roar broke out in the Gujin Pavilion, and Kong Xin flipped the table frantically, and yelled at the trembling employees: "The God of Wealth Statue can fucking be thrown away? Did you guys grow up eating shit??? "
