The chef’s wife, Song Yuanning, is a good cook. She cooked home-cooked dishes for lunch, including Li Mo’s favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, salt and pepper prawns, spicy sausages, a plate of garlic water spinach and a plate of fried peanuts.
I bought spiced beef and spicy pig tail from Gongtingji. This dish was very rich.
"You have some beer."
Yanagawa Qing opened a bottle of Erguotou himself and got a can of beer for Li Mo. He knew that his apprentice's drinking capacity was terrible.
"Dad, I'll have a can of beer too."
"If you want a drink, go get it yourself. You're such an adult and you're still giving orders to your dad."
"Please, I am the biological one." Liu Yingying sighed, she no longer had an important position in the family.
"When you get married in the future, your mother and I will still count on Xiao Mo to provide for us until we die." Yanagawa Qing Xiaomi took a sip of Erguotou and smacked her lips and said, "Now this wine is too fake."
"Master, wait until I return to Kyoto to find some Tibetan wine for you. I heard from my friend that that person still has a lot of pure grain wine from forty or fifty years ago. It will be delicious if you take a sip and hit it."
"Daughter, listen, now you know why we like Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo, master will accompany you to drink a little and eat more vegetables."
Liu Yingying angrily kicked Li Mo under the table.
"cheers."
Li Mo endured the pain, raised his glass to her with a smile and said, "Yingying, I was not here when you held the college entrance banquet, so I will fill in for you now. I wish you a bright future and all your dreams come true."
"That's pretty much it."
Liu Yingying gave him a smile, picked up a big shrimp and asked him for credit, saying, "I peeled the shrimp threads myself, come and try it."
"Did you peel it off?"
Li Mo expressed doubts.
"Are you going to eat?" Liu Yingying raised her pink fist to demonstrate.
"It's not enough to eat."
Song Yuanning looked at the two people, who had been fighting and fighting since they were young, and didn't know if there was that kind of affection between the two. It's not easy to ask directly. If neither of them has that idea, or one of them doesn't, then wouldn't it make them both feel embarrassed and create an invisible gap?
Just let nature take its course.
"Xiao Mo, try the sweet and sour pork ribs. You stayed up early in the morning. Yingying, you can have a piece too."
"Mom still knows how to love her daughter."
Liu Yingying said happily.
"Xiao Mo, there's something I haven't asked you about. How are you doing with the three great tricks passed down by your ancestor?"
"I have become proficient in the 'Finger Finger Debate' for appraising porcelain and the 'Hand of Heavenly Craftsmanship' for appraising calligraphy and painting, but I have yet to find a way to get started with the 'Mountains and Flowing Water' appraisement of bronzes. Master, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Yanagawa Kei drank a glass of Erguotou and gestured for him to pour the wine. He ate a few peanuts and said, "Your master and I talked about this once. The 'High Mountain Flowing Water' technique is something that only a handful of us in our lineage have mastered." . At the end of the conversation, I guessed that it might be the wrong way to exert force and energy. We have never practiced martial arts, so we don’t know anything about how to exert force and energy, but if you have practiced Baji, you should be able to understand it. "
Li Mo also often thinks about this issue. Now when he heard his master say this, he really felt that maybe his motivation was wrong.
"Master, I know an expert who practices Tai Chi in Kyoto. I will ask him for advice later to see if I can find a suitable technique for exerting force. After all, the force exerted by Baji Quan is too strong."
"You try it when you have a chance. It's up to you whether the three great skills can be passed down. Come on, have a drink."
After lunch, Li Mo stretched and prepared to go out for a walk. He missed walking around the Chenghuang Temple for a long time.
"Hello, little boss."
As soon as I went out, I met the old man who collected used goods. The tricycle he used had been replaced by an electric one. This saves a lot of effort and allows him to run farther every day.
"Uncle, how is your son's leg recovering?"
"It's good. Now he can walk a few steps with a cane. The doctor said that as long as he keeps exercising, it will be a matter of time before he throws away the cane. Now he is much more cheerful."
"This is really good news, sir. Do you have enough money?"
"Enough, enough. My son's medical expenses mainly include a set of training equipment, which cost more than 50,000 yuan. Now I have more than 400,000 yuan left. Little boss, I came to see your master today. I will meet you now. You're just right."
"Go in and tell me if you have anything to do."
"Okay, little boss, wait a minute." The uncle parked the tricycle, took out something wrapped in cloth from under a pile of cardboard boxes, and followed Li Mo into Guyunxuan.
"Uncle, what are you holding in your hand?"
"I don't know either. I need to ask the little boss to help me take a look." The second-hand goods owner opened the cloth to reveal a square box. When he opened the box, he saw two silver dollars lying inside.
Li Mo picked up a silver dollar and looked at it. It turned out to be a silver dollar made in the 25th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. There was a dragon in the middle of the front, surrounded by the Chinese words "Made by Fengtian Machinery Bureau in the 25th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty" in Chinese. The ring text on the back is in Qing Manchu, and the meaning is the same as the Chinese on the front, except that instead of the dragon pattern in the middle, it has the word "一元" cast in it.
The mintage of this coin is not large. The man on both sides of the silver coin, the Manchu characters, the bead circle and the dragon picture are full and thick. It has a strong three-dimensional effect and the pattern is clear and natural. It is a rare fine product in the collection. There are very few real objects in the world. It is very collectible. value.
He shook the weight, then pinched the center with two fingers and blew in, and heard a clear sound.
This is the real thing.
The other one is the same silver dollar.
"Uncle, where did you receive these two things?"
"I collected an old safe at the garbage recycling station. After I opened it, I found that there was a box inside. When I saw the contents in the box, I felt that it might be of some value, so I took it to your master and asked him to help me look at it. Look. Little boss, how much is this thing worth?"
"Uncle, this is a silver dollar made during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. It is a genuine item. It is in good condition and looks quite new, but it is not worth a few dollars. I have come into contact with few silver coins, so I am not very sure about its valuation. You have to ask my master about this."
"What do you want to ask me?" Yanagawa Kei came out holding a teapot.
"Hello, Boss Liu, sorry to bother you."
"Master, take a look at the Guangxu silver dollar. It's not bad. Please estimate the price."
Yanagawa Kei put down the teapot with interest, took out a silver dollar from the box, and authenticated it in the same way: "It is indeed genuine. This Guangxu silver dollar can be sold for more than 200,000 yuan in the current market. Uncle, this You can keep the two silver coins, they are worth four to five hundred thousand."
The second-hand goods owner's throat twitched. He obviously didn't expect that collecting an old safe would be so rewarding and so expensive.
"Little boss, will you accept these silver dollars? If you are willing to accept them, I will sell them all to you. How about 200,000 yuan each?"
"Uncle, are you not afraid of suffering a loss for two hundred thousand yuan?"
"Suffering a loss is a blessing. We can't let the small boss' hard work go in vain."
This uncle figured it out.
"Okay, I'll take these two silver coins." Li Mo closed the lid and handed it to Master, "Master, buy it."
Of course Yanagawa Kei would not refuse. He bought it for 400,000 yuan, then found an expert in this field to resell it and made a profit of 60,000 to 70,000 yuan. This business was so easy.
"Thank you, little boss, thank you, boss Liu." The old man saluted repeatedly, feeling that he had met a good person.
