"Xiao Yao, you are amazing!" Mr. Zheng praised in admiration, "I didn't notice anything unusual about that painting, but you saw it right away. What a profound vision it takes! The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared..."

He was full of surprises and looked very excited!

"Mr. Zheng, actually I am not very sure whether the painting "The Woodcutter in the Woods" is an authentic work by Miller. However, one thing is certain, that is, that work is not by Corot, nor by

His imitation." Finally, Jiahao concluded.

Although he was indeed unsure of anything now, based on the images he had seen before, he could basically conclude that the ancient Western painting was worth a lot of money, far exceeding Mr. Zheng's expectations.

"It's already good that you can see this!" Mr. Zheng said with a smile, "Reasonable suspicion, calm observation, and careful analysis are so important for an appraiser! How old are you?

It’s commendable that you have such good professional quality at such a young age! As for that painting, I will ask friends from the Art Association to do an appraisal later. With the appraisal from professional painters and researchers, it should be unmistakable.”

"Well, then we should get an accurate result." Jiahao nodded in agreement.

The two discussed for a while and then turned and walked back to the collection room. Mr. Zheng introduced the collections he carefully collected to Jiahao one by one. He learned a lot from Jiahao. The collection here is very rich, enough to let Jiahao watch.

It's an eye-opener.

"Xiao Yao, we have been watching for so long, are you hungry? Let's go down to eat first." I don't know how long it took, Mr. Zheng suddenly greeted me.

Jiahao nodded and said, "Well, okay."

It must be getting late, and he did feel hungry, so he followed Mr. Zheng out of the study and went to the living room downstairs.

At this moment, I saw only two more people in the hall. They were two women, one old and one young. The old one looked more than sixty years old and was elegant and luxurious. The younger woman was also dressed gorgeously and looked plump. She was

The kind of woman who is over forty but still has charm.

Jiahao could tell at a glance that one of the two women must be Lin Haitao's grandmother, and the other's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Zheng Peipei's. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zheng Peipei's mother?

"Brother Yao, are you down?"

When Jiahao came down the stairs, Lin Haitao hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face and said hello: "Let's eat. Oh, by the way, let me introduce you, those are my grandma and my aunt."

"Hello, auntie." Jiahao immediately walked up to Lin Haitao's grandmother and the others, and then said hello politely.

"Hello, young man, welcome to our home." Zheng's mother nodded to Jiahao with a friendly smile and said, "Haitao told us about you just now. Are you his colleague?"

"Yes, we work together in Mr. Deng's antique shop." Jiahao nodded and replied.

"You are not a foreigner, right? Where do you come from?" Zheng's mother then asked about Jiahao's situation. The two parties chatted for a while, and then the servants successively placed the prepared delicacies on the table.

Jiahao was warmly invited by Mr. Zheng and the others to dine with them. It was the first time that he and the Zheng family sat together to eat. Jiahao was a little embarrassed, but he still ate well. Maybe their food was very suitable.

Because of his appetite.

After eating, Mr. Zheng called Jiahao to his study room again and said happily: "Xiao Yao, there is something here, I don't know if you like it or not. I brought it back from London, England this time.

When I was inspecting there, a friend in the collecting industry specially invited me to his home. His family was very enthusiastic. Before leaving, they insisted on giving me something, and they even gave me two sets. I can use one set and the other one.

You can take one set and use it. This thing is really useful in daily life."

As he spoke, Mr. Zheng carefully took out an exquisite box from the drawer. At first glance, Jiahao didn't know what was in it, but he knew it must be something precious.

"Mr. Zheng, I'm afraid this thing is very precious. I can't accept it." Jiahao declined politely, "I didn't have time to prepare some gifts for you when I came here. How can I accept such a precious thing from you now?"

Mr. Zheng shook his head and said: "This is not a precious thing, it's just a tea set. Two cups, two plates, just these things. They are not antiques, so how can they be called precious? Haha, just think of it as me.

It’s your first time to come to my house. As a senior, of course you have to give me a gift as a junior, but I’m not prepared, so I can only give you this gift. I hope you won’t be polite and accept it.”

"A tea set?" Jiahao asked secretly in surprise.

This was something he didn't expect. He thought that the gift the other party sent was the same as Mr. Deng and his friends. It was also a precious antique with special meaning. However, he didn't know that it was a beautifully packaged tea set. This gift was really unique and touching.

"Then thank you." Although the gesture was so warm and disrespectful, Jiahao could only accept it respectfully.

He knows tea ceremony very well now, but he doesn't have a decent tea set. Now Mr. Zheng gave him a set, doesn't it just suit his wishes?

After staying in the study for a while, Jiahao said goodbye to Mr. Zheng. It was almost nine o'clock, and he was afraid that the dormitory would be closed if he went back too late.

So Mr. Deng personally escorted Jiahao out, and of course Lin Haitao followed him. He had to drive Jiahao back to his dormitory.

"Brother Yao, this tea set is good. It is produced by Hermès. It seems to be a limited edition."

After the car started moving slowly, Lin Haitao spotted the gift box that Jiahao was holding in his hand, and he immediately recognized it as a "Hermès tea set."

"Hermès?!" Jiahao said in surprise, "Haitao, is this tea set made by Hermès?"

Although he is not familiar with Hermès, Jiahao naturally knows that it is a world-famous luxury brand, and only the rich can afford genuine goods.

"Yeah, didn't you see the carriage sign on it?" Lin Haitao nodded and said, "It also says 'hermes' on it, which is French 'Hermes'."

"Oh, that's it!" Jiahao suddenly realized. Only then did he realize that the gift given to him by Mr. Zheng had a lot of background. It turned out to be a set of luxury tea sets, but compared with the two "Ming Chenghua tea sets" used for drinking.

"Doucai Chicken Cup" is a "small thing compared to a big witch" and cannot be compared.

Jiahao continued: "This Hermès tea set is the meeting gift your grandpa gave me just now. Why didn't I think about it before I came here? I should also prepare a good gift for him."

Lin Haitao said disapprovingly: "Oh, that doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future. My grandpa will have his birthday next week, and it won't be too late for you to prepare a gift for him then. It can be seen that my grandpa

He likes you very much. He will contact you often in the future, take you to visit and collect things. He also often participates in auctions at major auction houses. If there is something he likes, he will definitely take it. Otherwise, he will

He doesn’t care about food and drink! My grandpa is obsessed with collecting, and his biggest ideal is to build a natural museum..."

"A natural museum? What is a 'natural museum'?" Before Lin Haitao could finish speaking, Jiahao interrupted him and asked.

Lin Haitao replied calmly: "It was just a beautiful dream of my grandfather, and it is basically impossible to implement it. The so-called 'natural museum', as the name suggests, is to place the collections in a very natural situation

Exhibition. It seems that there is no such museum in the world, right? For example, various collections can be displayed in a space arranged like a natural cave. If such a museum were really opened, I think it would attract thousands of people.

Come and visit? The idea is wonderful, but the implementation is simply impossible! First of all, you need to find a suitable place, various designs and layouts, and secondly, you need a large number of collections to organize the exhibition. The first point may be easier to handle, but

It would be very difficult to collect a large number of authentic collections. I don’t know how much money it will cost and how much energy it will consume!”

"But it all depends on people." Jiahao said confidently, "I believe Mr. Zheng's wish will come true one day."

Lin Haitao shook his head and said with a smile: "Unless you give us tens or hundreds of billions! Only with that kind of handwriting can we start this grand idea!"

While talking, the two of them followed the car straight to Jiahao's school. By the time Jiahao returned to the dormitory, it was already past eleven o'clock.

That night, due to physical fatigue, Jiahao fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep after taking a bath.

The next day he went to work at "Jianbaozhai" as usual and arrived at the antique shop on time.

When he stepped into the door, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw two more people in the store. They were two very familiar figures.

Mr. Deng and Mr. Zheng!

The two of them, as well as Lin Haitao and Uncle Jiang, all seemed to be getting ready to go somewhere.

"Brother Yao, are you here? Everyone is waiting for you."

When Jiahao walked into the "Jianbao Zhai", Lin Haitao walked up to him and greeted him with a smile.

From the other party's words, Jiahao could naturally hear it, and thought to himself, as expected, Mr. Deng and the others were going to take him to participate in some activities.

"Haitao, what's wrong?" Jiahao asked in surprise, "Why are your grandpa and Mr. Deng here? Are there any special arrangements for today?"

Just listen to Lin Haitao's reply: "You will know in a moment. Brother Yao, let's talk about it in the past."

So the two of them walked up to Mr. Deng and the others. Jiahao first greeted Mr. Zheng and Mr. Deng politely and said, "Mr. Zheng, Mr. Deng, why are you free to come to the store today?"

"

Mr. Zheng smiled and nodded at him cordially and said, "I have come here often before."

"Xiao Yao, we have a day off today and we won't open a store." Mr. Deng stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go somewhere to play."

"Ah?" Jiahao said with a look of surprise on his face, "Where are we going to play?"

Mr. Deng replied: "Go to Tianyun Mountain. It's not good to stay here all day. It's not good for your health. You should go out for a walk from time to time and breathe fresh air, so that you can exercise well. The body is revolutionary.

As for capital, you must have a good body to study well and do a good job. Well, since you are here, let's set off now."

"Well, okay." Jiahao agreed quickly.
Chapter completed!
