Li Mo carried the packaged gourd bottle and returned to Guyunxuan in an excited mood. Master Yanagawa Keimasa and another owner of the antique street were drinking tea and chatting.
"Xiao Mo, what did you buy?"
"Master, come and take a look, there are some good things."
Li Mo carefully took out the gourd bottle and put it on the counter, admiring it proudly. This was the first time in his life that he had picked up a bottle, which was of extraordinary significance.
Yanagawa Kei didn't take it seriously. Instead, the boss who was drinking tea with him lit up his eyes. He quickly walked to the counter and took out a magnifying glass from his pocket to look at it inch by inch.
"Boss Liu, your apprentice really picked up a good treasure."
"Boss Wang, don't be fooled. There really are none on the streets outside. There are countless imitations." Yanagawa Qing said this, but he still stepped forward to identify it for a moment. There was a hint of surprise in his expression, and he looked up at Li Mo. Said, "You tell me first."
Li Mo knew that his judgment was correct, and he spoke confidently: "Judging from the style, this is a gourd vase with a pink and green glaze carved with intertwining branches and connected patterns. Judging from the glaze color, the glaze is slightly opalescent. The glaze color is green and elegant, and the glaze surface has a soft luster, which looks like jade. This is one of the best tones among celadon glazes. The inscription at the bottom is written in the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, in block letters, which is a very typical official kiln inscription. .”
"I ran my fingertips along the mouth of the bottle. The surface is smooth and round, and the workmanship is exquisite. According to my preliminary judgment, this is an authentic product from the official kiln during the Qianlong period. Master, what do you think, Boss Wang?"
"Good boy, you have learned the true skills of Boss Liu. Judging from the shape, glaze color, craftsmanship and base model, this is indeed a pink-green glazed gourd bottle from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. I happen to have a pink-green glazed gourd bottle from the same period in my store. The glazed amphora is a genuine elephant vase. Xiao Mo, are you willing to transfer it? I promise to buy it at the highest price on the market."
Boss Wang couldn't put it down for this pink-green glaze gourd vase. Nowadays, it is very difficult to find an authentic porcelain from the Qing Dynasty. The one in the store's collection was obtained at a small auction four years ago.
Li Mo was very moved. He looked at Yanagawa Qing. After all, Gu Yunxuan was also in the porcelain business, although they were all high imitations.
"Xiao Mo, you got this by your own ability. I'm very happy that the master is better than the master. We at Gu Yunxuan don't need genuine products to win, so you can make the decision and transfer it to Boss Wang."
The price offered by Boss Wang was indeed the highest in the market. After signing the transaction contract, the 230,000 yuan was quickly received. When he received the text message on his mobile phone, Li Mo's heart beat violently, and his whole body seemed to be filled with energy and blood rushing to his brain.
"What makes you so happy?" Master Song Yuanning walked in with a cleaned old hen, and also bought Li Mo's favorite pork head meat from Palace Records.
"Xiao Mo made a small fortune by picking up leaks from the street stalls. I have picked up only a handful of leaks since I started teaching, and this guy is more promising than me. By the way, how much did you spend on that gourd bottle?"
Li Mo stretched out his five fingers: "Five hundred."
"Good guy, if that stall owner knew about the stolen treasure later, he would definitely regret it and vomit three liters of blood."
Li Mo stayed at Guyunxuan until evening before leaving. His home was in an old community called Shuxiang Mingyuan, which was some distance away.
Although the supporting facilities of Shuxiang Mingyuan are not perfect, it is quiet, the property management is good, the environment is clean, and the neighbors who live here get along relatively harmoniously.
Li Mo's house is on the third floor, covering an area of more than 80 square meters, and is very cozy. When I turned on the light, I saw a large black and white art photo hanging on the wall of the entrance, showing a woman dancing gracefully. She has a slender figure and graceful figure, with black hair half covering her face, and her eyes showing the light of wisdom.
"I don't know what kind of virtue my father accumulated in his previous life to be able to marry a beauty like my mother."
Walking to the living room, hanging on the background wall of the sofa are photos of parents showing their love. The backgrounds of the photos are different and the landforms are different, with four distinct seasons, which is very unique.
"I seem to be so redundant."
Li Mo looked at the empty home and sighed with emotion. This time he was almost separated from them. If something happened, they didn't know what would happen when they came back.
After Meimei took a hot bath, she nestled on the sofa and watched a movie. After a while, a chat message came in. It was from Yingying.
"This should be done in self-study in the evening. When did you learn to take a break?"
Li Mo opened the text message. It was a selfie photo of a pouting person, with a line of words on it: Xiao Mo, let your sister kiss you.
The second message came in: Although you guessed it blindly, this girl has always kept her promise. Please accept it with a kiss.
Li Mo almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, girl, you are so bad.
Throw your phone aside and watch your own movie in peace.
After another ten minutes, the phone vibrated several times in succession, and Li Mo had to open it again to take a look. It was still Liu Yingying's hair.
"My dad said you have been discharged from the hospital. Will you be okay at home alone?"
"Tomorrow I have time to go to Xijiangkou Old Street. There is a May tourist season there. There is a big promotion at the time-honored pastry shop. Buy some for me. I have been very greedy recently."
"Xiao Mo, you should be more generous and don't act like a little girl."
"Okay, one more kiss for free."
The last message was still a picture, but it was a little fragrant pig with an open mouth, accompanied by a line of words: Brother, I want a kiss.
Li Mo couldn't laugh or cry.
"You become like this as you eat, and you'll get fat to death."
Liu Yingying replied quickly: How should I talk to my sister? Say something nice, or I will tell my best friend that you have been secretly in love with her.
Li Mo grinned. It's not that easy to frame me out of thin air.
"How do you know that I have a crush on her, Yingying, please don't tell her this. The college entrance examination is about to take place. We can't cause psychological pressure to her at this critical moment and affect her study and life. I originally planned to wait for the exam. I just confessed my love to her."
For a long time, there was no movement from the phone.
Demo, let’s see if you are good at it!
After replying to the message, I went to bed. I have to go to Xijiangkou tomorrow.
The next day, I had to change three times to take the subway to Xijiangkou. By the time Li Mo arrived, the sun was shining brightly. Although it was not the weekend, there were already huge crowds of people. The aromas of the northern and southern snacks blended and diffused, making people's index fingers grow bigger after just one bite. move.
Li Mo followed the crowd and walked towards the old street. The time-honored pastry shop was at the other end, and it would take about a quarter of an hour to walk there.
Suddenly, someone bumped into him lightly. If it was someone else, he would not care. It is normal for so many people to bump into each other in the old street. But Li Mo frowned and reached out with his right hand to grab the arm of the old man who was about to pass by.
"What are you doing?" The old man immediately stared and asked in a low voice.
Li Mo snorted lightly, with a trace of ferocity in his eyes: "Leave the things behind."
The old man tried to free his arm, but when he felt Li Mo's hand gradually increase in strength, he realized that the young man in front of him had some tricks. He turned his left hand, and a black wallet appeared from nowhere.
"Old man, admit defeat, little brother, give me a way."
Li Mo took his wallet, waved his hand and said: "The road is not given by others, but you walk it yourself. Some roads become dead ends if you walk on them."
