The cold wind in Kyoto has been blowing for ten consecutive days. When Li Mo woke up and opened the curtains, it was already snowing outside, and the sky was covered with goose-feather snowflakes.
During this period, his life was relatively peaceful. He went to and from class normally, and occasionally went to the Kyoto Museum to participate in the classification of Xiang Yu's treasures.
There will be winter vacation in more than a month, but the two things he arranged have not made much progress. But don’t be anxious. Many times it’s useless to be anxious and get angry. The mentality is particularly important.
Today was Saturday, it was snowing heavily outside, and he was too lazy to go out. It was more comfortable to stay at home and wear a thin sweater.
Suddenly, a burst of joyful music played. Li Mo glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and felt refreshed. It seemed that there was news.
"Xiaojun, how are things going?"
"Uncle Junior, that Li Jiayu was hiding quite deep, but we still found him by the tail. I will send you the information later."
"good."
Li Mo turned on the computer and received Chen Xiaojun's files. The file was quite large. When I opened it, I saw that Li Jiayu’s situation was listed one by one. Li Mo watched for about five minutes. He was worthy of being the first in line of succession of the Li family. The number of companies he was directly involved in, or indirectly invested and controlled, or just held shares in, actually counted forty-six large and small companies.
To his surprise, he also invested in more than a dozen antique shops in Kyoto, including the famous Liulichang, Panjiayuan and Bada Hutong. He even holds shares in three jewelry companies, giving him a large say.
After careful calculation, his personal net worth is at least 800 million. No wonder he has the confidence to engage in conspiracy behind the scenes, but he doesn’t know whether the funds are owned by him personally or given by his family.
Given.
Li Mo stared at the content on the information, pondered for a moment, then set the privacy settings, turned off the phone, put on a down jacket and a black cotton mask and walked out of the house.
An hour and a half later, Li Mo walked out of the Panjiayuan subway entrance and looked at the snow-covered Panjiayuan in front of him. The hustle and bustle in the past had turned into a deserted place. Occasionally, he saw a few figures running past in a hurry.
"Junior brother."
Chen Feng waited at the subway entrance for a while, stamping her feet from the cold.
"I just asked you to transfer some money to me. Why do you have to come out? Are you uncomfortable hiding at home in this snowy day?"
"I'm so bored at home. I heard you said you were going to Panjiayuan to hunt for goods, so I followed you out and learned a lot. Junior brother, let's go eat mutton hot pot at noon. Eating mutton hot pot in this weather will make your whole body warm and comfortable. .”
"No problem, let's have an all-sheep feast. It's good to have someone to cooperate. Let's talk as we walk. If we really come across something good, just look at my eyes and act accordingly."
"Don't worry, I can do this."
The two walked on the avenue in front of Panjiayuan, stepping on the thick snow and making a rustling sound. This is the place where Li Mo truly became famous. It can be said that he became famous in one battle and was nicknamed Golden Eye in the antique circle.
Then sang all the way.
"Junior brother, why don't you go in and take a look?"
Chen Fengjian walked for a long time, and Li Mo didn't even enter a store, which felt a bit strange.
"I saw an antique store with a good reputation online, so I came here today. Here we are, the Jade Qilin store in front of us. From now on, I am the boss."
"Understood, boss."
Li Mo pushed the door open and walked into the shop. The doorbell rang. There were several people playing cards inside. As soon as someone came in, a young man in his twenties trotted up to them and shouted with a smile: "Welcome."
Others were busy clearing up the card table. They probably didn't expect anyone to come to the house in such a snowy day.
"Our boss just takes a look."
Chen Feng said with a cold face. After all, she has been in the workplace for a long time, and her eyes and aura can give people a sense of oppression.
The clerk looked at Li Mo who was wearing a mask, nodded quickly and said, "Sir, please, our store is a century-old store. It mainly deals in the Four Treasures of the Study, calligraphy and painting, and some gold jewelry. Which ones do you want to see?"
"Let me take a look first. Anyone who knows the truth will tell you." Li Mo felt a little contempt for them. This is a place for business after all, and you actually gathered to play cards. As for the century-old brand you mentioned, you are talking about it. How can there be so many time-honored brands in the world? I have read the information and the store is no more than ten years old. Li Jiayu invested in it three years ago and is the largest shareholder. Then I found The confidants take care of the store.
Li Mo first looked around at the Four Treasures of the Study on the shelves. They were all ordinary. Then he looked at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. They were also garbage. As for gold jewelry, if he really wanted to buy it, he wouldn't buy it here.
"Are all the four best study treasures in the store here?"
"Of course, this is the best product in our store." The boy replied enthusiastically.
Li Mo shook his head, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes: "It's too ordinary, let's go."
"Please wait a moment, sir." Another middle-aged man in his forties came over and asked politely, "I am the shopkeeper here, my surname is Li. I would like to ask you what kind of four treasures of the study you want. Our shop is really good. Things must not be placed on the shelf openly. If you accidentally touch them, the damage will be huge."
Li Mo then looked at Shopkeeper Li, and even though he was wearing a mask, he couldn't see the change on his face, so he heard him say: "My elders in the family like old things. If you have anything like that, you can show it to me."
After saying that, he took out the blinding black gold card from the wallet in his arms, put it on the counter boldly and said: "The stuff is good, money is not a problem."
Businessmen all like such high-profile customers. Shopkeeper Li immediately smiled and said: "Serve tea to our distinguished guests. Please wait a moment, sir."
He went to the backyard and the good stuff was locked in a safe.
After only waiting for about two minutes, shopkeeper Li walked to the counter holding a wooden box. He carefully put down the wooden box and opened the package. It turned out that there was another wooden box inside.
Shopkeeper Li took it out. It was a wooden box with a high base. Judging from the color and texture, it was Hainan huanghuali wood. He opened the lid of the box, revealing an exquisite inkstone.
"Sir please."
Li Mo took out the inkstone. It had no carvings and the overall shape was simple and plain. The different pupils exude a light gray luster when viewed through perspective. This is an old inkstone from the late Qing Dynasty, or a Duan inkstone, one of the four famous inkstones in the Qing Dynasty.
This Duan Inkstone is from the late Qing Dynasty. I wonder if the high-base Hainan huanghuali wood box used to hold it is from the late Qing Dynasty?
There is a thick layer of patina on the surface of the wooden box, which should take a long time.
Li Mo Yitong looked again, his sight penetrated the wooden box, and indeed it emitted a light gray halo. Then his eyes went deeper again, and he actually saw an inkstone hidden inside. At the same time, a gray luster was transmitted from the body of the inkstone, and formed a gray aperture that spread around.
There is also an old inkstone from the mid-Qing Dynasty hidden in the high-base huanghuali wood box, and it is a famous inkstone with quite a history, otherwise it would not have so many apertures.
"Sir, what do you think of this inkstone?"
Li Mo withdrew his gaze, put the Duan Inkstone back into the wooden box, nodded and said: "Yes, it is better than the old inkstone I bought before. This Duan Inkstone has no damage, and it looks simple and unpretentious overall. Shopkeeper Li, how much does this Duan Inkstone cost?" money?"
"Sir, have you studied the Four Treasures of the Study?" Shopkeeper Li saw that Li Mo knew the origin of this old inkstone at a glance, and his face was a little tangled. Why? Because buyers are familiar with the market, they cannot make a killing.
"My grandfather likes to collect the Four Treasures of the Study. There are dozens of old inkstones on the bookshelf at home. Shopkeeper Li, I don't want to tell secrets. Please give me a real price so that I can take them away."
Li Mo made it very clear that he is knowledgeable. If you keep talking like a lion, there will be nothing to talk about. "
"Since you are an expert, I will give you a real price, eighty-eight thousand, just for good luck."
Eighty-eight thousand is a little more expensive, but if the Duan Inkstone is sold at the market price, the boss doesn't have to sell it to him. Maybe he can get a little more money next time he meets a fool.
Li Mo picked up the huanghuali wood with both hands and looked at it carefully, seeming to be considering the price.
