Li Luo smiled and took a sip of porridge." I just returned to Lan Ning City yesterday. I went home and had a comfortable sleep. I called you before I finished my meal."”
"Are you free today? I want to introduce you to someone. I see that you only pick up antiques on the antique street every day, so I want you to go to his company and see if you can be a consultant or something.”Ye Fan smiled and said," Don't refuse to listen to me first. I want you to go to his place to help him identify antiques. There's no hard and fast working time. When there are antiques, you can help him identify them. When there aren't any, you can arrange your time freely. You can do whatever you want."”
Ye Fan got up from the bed and said,"There's such a good thing?"”
"Is there such a good thing? Your Uncle Li has already told you. I heard that you bought a car. Why don't you eat first? After dinner, come and pick me up.”Li Luo said with a smile.
Ye Fan nodded and said,"Then Uncle Li, wait for me at home for a while. I'll go downstairs to buy some breakfast and go over after I'm done eating. Okay..."?
Yesterday, Ye Fan was interested in a fan, but because the price was too high, he didn't buy it. He wanted to go and take a look today, but he was called by Li Luo. Although Ye Fan wasn't interested in this idle position that Li Luo mentioned, it was Li Luo's good intentions after all, and Ye Fan was embarrassed to refuse.
Thinking of going downstairs to have some breakfast and then going to pick Li Luo up, Ye Fan saw Wang Zicong squatting at the entrance of the community as soon as he walked out of the community. Of course, he also saw Xu Ya who was blocked.
"Wang Zicong, get lost.”Xu Ya was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She did not know what medicine Wang Zicong had taken today to block him here so early in the morning.
Looking at the furious Xu Ya, Wang Zicong began to retreat. Just as he was about to lose, he saw Ye Fan giving him a look from afar. With his cousin's guidance, Wang Zicong also had confidence."Little Ya, I'm worried about you going to work alone. I'll send you there.”
"I don't need your fake kindness." Xu Ya was so angry that she took her bag and threw it at Wang Zicong. Wang Zicong did not dodge at all, looking like a wooden block, which made Xu Ya even angrier.
Looking at Wang Zicong, who could not be chased away no matter how shamelessly she tried, Xu Ya really did not know what to do."Wang Zicong, let me tell you, I have a boyfriend now. He'll be out in a while.”
"Ye Fan said that you and him are just ordinary friends. If you don't believe me, you can ask him.”When Wang Zicong faced Xu Ya, his IQ began to approach zero. He directly sold Ye Fan out."He's right behind you. Ask him if you don't believe me.”
Xu Ya frowned and turned her head to look. She happened to see Ye Fan who was already approaching her. She knew that Ye Fan must have said something to Wang Zicong."Ye Fan, what did you say to him?”Xu Ya placed one hand on her waist and looked at Ye Fan as she questioned.
Ye Fan chuckled and said,"I'll go buy breakfast. You two chat. I'll leave first."”After saying that, she ran away without looking back.
Hongxin Group was the largest real estate company in Lanning City. Chairman An Guoli was already in his fifties, but he was very good at real estate. It had been less than twenty years since Hongxin Group was established. It had turned into a steel company and the largest real estate business in Lanning City.
"Uncle Li, An Guoli is a real estate company. Are you sure you want me to go to his company?”Ye Fan asked uncertainly. After all, real estate and antiques had nothing to do with each other.
Hearing Ye Fan's question, Li Luo, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, said,"A few years ago, An Guoli dug up a batch of antiques at his construction site. After appraisal, he said that they were from the Ming Dynasty. It was also after that incident that he became interested in antiques. He said that he was not good at appraising antiques, but he had a lot of good things in his family collection.”
"Are you saying that I'm his personal appraiser?”Ye Fan asked.
Li Luo shook his head and said," Today, I'm just introducing you two to each other. If there's a chance, see if you can work for him. Even if you can't, he'll appreciate you very much. If there's something he's not sure about, he'll ask you to appraise it. In this way, won't the relationship between the two of you be established?"”
At this point, Ye Fan understood. It turned out that he was only using Li Luo's name today to let Ye Fan have a meal with him and get to know him. As for what happened after that, it was just Li Luo's expectations and had not been completely decided yet.
The place where Li Luo and An Guoli had agreed to meet was a teahouse in the city center. For an owner like An Guoli, who spent most of his time discussing business at the dining table, meeting his old friend at a teahouse was more satisfying.
"Haha, Old Li, you know what I'm thinking. This place is indeed better than those star hotels.”An Guoli and Li Luo shook hands enthusiastically, expressing that they liked the fresh and elegant environment here.
"Old Li, this is the Ye Fan you mentioned, right?”After exchanging a few pleasantries with Li Luo, An Guoli turned his gaze to Ye Fan.
Li Luo nodded and gestured for An Guoli to sit down. He said,""Old An, we've been together for so many years. I've never lied to you. Ye Fan's appraisal skills are definitely first-class. The batch of fake antiques from the Cultural Relics and Civil Affairs Bureau was found by Ye Fan.”
"Hello, Director An." Ye Fan greeted him very politely.
An Guoli smiled and nodded." Old Li, you're really good. I happen to have a batch of antiques in my hands that I want to have appraised. If you're free, help me take a look in two days."”
"Alright, I don't have a formal job now. I just pick up some antiques and make some money. Director An, just let me know if you have anything to say.”Ye Fan nodded and agreed to An Guoli's request. In any case, appraising items was not difficult for Ye Fan.
An Guoli and Ye Fan made a verbal agreement, but Li Luo said,""Old An, have you found any treasures these days?”
An Guoli took a sip of tea and smiled." Nothing good. I just opened an antique shop a few days ago and bought some antiques from outside. There are a few that even the appraiser in my shop couldn't decide on."”
In the beginning, Ye Fan could still say a few words, but later on, he couldn't say anything at all. From the beginning to the end, it was Li Luo and An Guoli who spoke. Ye Fan couldn't help but be a little absent-minded. There was an antique shop opposite the teahouse. When Ye Fan came, he noticed it. Now he couldn't interrupt, so he thought of going there to take a look first.
"Director An, Uncle Li, I see an antique shop opposite this teahouse. I want to go over and take a look…"
"You go over and take a look. I'll chat with Old An for a while. This person is getting old and has a lot to say.”Li Luo knew what Ye Fan was thinking. Before he could finish, he spoke first and asked Ye Fan to go and take a look across the street.
Ye Fan smiled apologetically and left the teahouse. He headed towards the antique shop opposite, Treasure Gathering Mountain Room.
The true story of the antique industry was that if it didn't open for business for three years, it would eat for three years. Because this antique shop was located in the heart of the city, there were many customers in the shop, but there was not a single person who actually sold or bought it.
From the moment he entered the shop, Ye Fan felt a cool spiritual energy. Ye Fan had handled many antiques, but he had never felt such a cool spiritual energy like today. This immediately ignited his curiosity.
Ye Fan carefully felt the direction of the spiritual qi that was spreading out. His feet slowly moved closer to it."Is this it?" Looking at the jade pendant in the glass cabinet, his heart skipped a beat. He said,"Boss, come here for a moment."
At this moment, the boss was lazily sitting on the recliner with his eyes closed. When he heard someone call out to him, his face revealed a dissatisfied expression. There were many people who wanted things in the shop every day, but there was indeed no one who bought anything."I'm here, I'm here. What's the matter, little brother?”Although he was dissatisfied, the boss immediately put on a polite smile when he walked over.
"Can you show me this jade plate?”Ye Fan pointed at the jade token and said. The jade token was the size of a child's palm. It was green in color and was carved with mountains and rivers. There were railings on both sides of the jade token. The carvings of plants and birds on the surface of the token were lifelike. It was obvious that they were made by an expert.
The boss did not refuse. He held the principle that customers were God and took out the jade card and placed it on the table. Ye Fan gently picked up the jade card and casually asked,"Boss, give me a price for this thing.”Ye Fan's finger slid across the jade token and felt threads of cool spiritual qi seep into his fingertips. He narrowed his eyes comfortably.
"Little brother, you can tell at a glance that you know what's good for you. This jade token is from the Song Dynasty and it's carved from high-quality ancient jade. I'll give you a real price.”The boss gave a price painfully. This was the second time he had quoted this price today. Half an hour ago, another person had taken a fancy to this jade pendant, but in the end, they did not sell it because the price could not be agreed upon.
Ye Fan nodded without batting an eyelid."Does this boss think I'm a rookie who doesn't know anything? He just opened his mouth and asked for 800,000.”
"300,000. I'll buy this jade pendant. I just like the color.”Ye Fan flipped the jade pendant in his palm and pointed at the pattern on it, saying,"Boss, the carvings on your jade pendant look lifelike, but you can take a closer look. The broken points on the carvings and the depths of the carvings on the card are different.
The boss chuckled. He knew that this person in front of him was not a rookie who knew nothing. He smiled and said,"It seems that I have met an expert. I wonder what else you think about this jade plate?”
"I don't have any opinion. The two points I mentioned just now are enough to prove that the carvings on your jade pendant were originally incomplete. It was just that after it was reprocessed, the patterns were repaired, so this jade pendant is also considered half a fake.”Ye Fan smiled and looked at the boss, waiting for his answer.
Hearing that Ye Fan had insisted on the price of 300,000, the boss's expression turned bitter."You're too ruthless with your bargaining. I don't even have enough capital.”
