That night, Deputy Director Qin Yong invited Dong Xuebin to dinner in Huiyang Restaurant's private room.
Qin Yong Dong Xuebin doesn't know much about this person's background. I only know that he is a cadre who was appointed by the Provincial Public Security Bureau. He is in charge of the patrol police brigade and the traffic police brigade. He has a heavy responsibility, and his ranking is somewhat higher than that of the party committee. On the surface, he is a very capable young cadre, and he is also very motivated. He always wants to achieve something, and this eagerness to make contributions and prove himself seems to be much heavier than Dong Xuebin. He is a practical person. Generally speaking, Dong Xuebin has a good impression of him, and Qin Yong is the county bureau leader closest to his age, and his contemporaries are also more speculative.
"Brother Dong, today's meal is for you to celebrate your success." I can't do it without wine. ", "Ouch, I really can't drink enough. Chapter 178 [Smashing the Antique Shop!] become. "This is the truth.
"Then open a bottle of Beijing wine. You Capital City people are used to drinking this, right? The degree is not high either."
When all the dishes were served, the waiter filled them up with wine. Dong Xuebin looked a little dizzy at the three taels full of Baijiu in the cup. He picked up the cup and gave him a toast. " Director Qin, I know you must be a heavy drinker. "I'm not trying to fool you. To be honest, "I only drink two or three ounces. Our National Security Bureau had regulations at the time not to drink excessively." So I haven't drank much. ", Qin Yong doesn't really care. "Actually, I don't drink well either. Come on, let's do whatever we want., after taking a sip, Qin Yong smiled and said, "I heard that Brother Dong is not married yet?" The Power of Time and Wealth 178
Dong Xuebin said, "Yeah" I haven't found the right one yet. "
"Haha, Yantai County can go out of the beauty's place." There are many police beauties in our county bureau. Brother Dong, don't you think about it? If that doesn't work, can I ask my spouse to recommend a few? "
"No, I think it's better to live alone.", "That's right, haha, marriage is a grave." It's not that Dong Xuebin doesn't want to get married, he also wants to get married as soon as possible so that his mother can have grandchildren, but Xie Huilan The matter with Qu Yunxuan is still in a mess. Dong Xuebin wants to marry Aunt Xuan." Chapter 178 [Smashing the Antique Shop!] But Aunt Ying has never given the right message. He also wants to marry Xie Huilan." But Sister Xie's attitude is a question The question is "I'm afraid Sister Xie's family won't agree." So Dong Xuebin's relationship is really a mess, and after being tossed by such beautiful women as Xie Huilan and Cui Yunying, Dong Xuebin's vision has also reached a certain level. In such a situation, let alone a policewoman, even Hu Silian, the pretty office director, "Dong Xuebin" doesn't look down on her at all. Compared with Aunt Xie, "Which woman dares to call herself beautiful?" There is a huge gap!
"Come" Director Dong, I respect you. "
After getting down to the grassroots level, "Dong Xuebin was already prepared to be drunk. Knowing that this is the way of communication here, I felt a little dizzy." Dong Xuebin was a little dizzy. He swallowed the two ounces. Dong Xuebin was very dizzy. Until he drank all the three ounces of wine in the cup, Dong Xuebin couldn't drink any more. He covered his head in a daze and drooped his eyelids.
Only then did Qin Yong believe Dong Xuebin's words, so he stopped toasting him, and instead talked to him about things in the county bureau.
Dong Xuebin is dizzy, but my mind is still relatively clear." He listened carefully with his ears raised.
I don't know if Qin Yong really drank too much or if he did it on purpose." Qin Yong told Dong Xuebin about many relationships and things in the county bureau that were not visible on the surface. For example, Hu Yiguo was extremely passionate about power. For example, his relationship with Hu Yiguo The good deputy director Zhao Jinsong is very lustful and has always had thoughts about the office director Hu Silian. For example, the deputy director Gong Zongwen, who has always followed Director Liang's footsteps, is very low-key and has no idea of advancement. He just wants to stay in this position until he retires, etc. Thanks to Qin Yong, Dong Xuebin has a better understanding of the county bureau leaders." Of course, Dong Xuebin will not believe everything, and many things need to be confirmed with his own eyes.
After leaving the restaurant, Qin Yong laughed and started to use Dong Xuebin's words, jokingly asking him if he had a big background, "How else could he be the deputy director at such a young age." Dong Xuebin suddenly sobered up a bit. He even asked what kind of background he had. In fact, Dong Xuebin did not have any background. Xie Huilan did, but that was his background and had little to do with him.
Seeing that he couldn't tell anything, Qin Yong didn't say much, but talked about something else.
It was already seven o'clock in the evening when I returned to the county bureau dormitory.
Dong Xuebin As soon as he entered the room, he lay down on the bed, rubbing his head until he felt dizzy.
Ring ring ring, the phone rang, Dong Xuebin didn't even look at it, picked up the phone and listened. "Hello?" "
There was a pause on the other end, and then came the sweet and soft voice of Cui Yundong, "Have you been drinking?"
Dong Xuebin let out a sigh of admiration. "Khan, can you hear a word I just said?" "
Huo Yunying smiled tenderly, "Auntie knows you better than you know yourself. I know very well the sound you make when you are about to go to sleep, the tone of voice you use when you wake up, and the tone you adopt after drinking." Are you having a social event today? Drink less alcohol from now on. "That stuff is not good for your health." Do you understand? ", Dong Xuebin said yes, "... do you miss me? "
"Bah, you don't speak in a serious manner. Are you looking for a beating?"
"If you don't want me, why don't you call me? You just show off."
"Go to hell, Auntie has something serious to do with you." Cui Yunying said angrily, "Auction Company Auntie has already started the process." On the expert side, Auntie contacted two of them through friends, and the recruitment of employees is almost done. The office location has also been determined, and the only trouble now is the first batch of photos. Although many people have contacted me and expressed their willingness to put it up for auction, I asked experts to look at the items and found that they were all average. This generally does not refer to suede items, but only means that the items are of little value, such as the small bowl from a folk kiln. The calligraphy of a third-rate painter, there is nothing particularly eye-catching. ", "Then let's look for it again." You can also pay for it." The Power of Time and Wealth 178
"Auntie thinks so too. The first auction must be launched to create some momentum, but the problem now is that we have spent so much money to set up a company, including "a year's rent for the office space", the rental of the hotel venue, advertising fees, etc., and now there is not much left."
Dong Xuebin thought about it, "What grade should the main auction item be?"
"This is a small auction. Just have antiques worth hundreds of thousands or nearly one million." Dong Xuebin sat up from the bed and rubbed his eyebrows and thought for a while. "... Well, let me think of a way." "
"Are you going to pick up leaks? But your county has too few resources in this area, right?"
"Let's see and then" Aunt Xuan, just wait for my news. "
In addition to his own career, Dong Xuebin is now most concerned about the company's development. All his savings have been invested in it. If the first auction does not go well, it will be too difficult to get up again. This is related to his future happy life, so there can be no mistakes.
After washing my face and sobering up, Dong Xuebin took my bag and went out to find an antique shop.
Yantai County is not a cultural center like Capital City. "Antique shops are very scarce, Stone Gambling and so on." In addition, it is already past seven o'clock, and many stores that should be closed are also closed. Dong Xuebin searched around the most prosperous square in the center of the county and asked many people, but in the end he couldn't even see the shadow of the antique shop. Just as Dong Xuebin was walking down the street depressedly, two people suddenly came over on bicycles. It was Hu Silian.
"Hey, Director Dong? "Hu Silian squeezed the brake of the electric bicycle" and got out of the lane: "What a coincidence?"
Dong Xuebin and Family Building have seen the man next to Hu Silian." "Director Hu went shopping with his lover? "
Hu Silian is not wearing a police uniform today" but is wearing a sparkling skirt, "Haha, no, my wife's work unit organized an event, and we went dancing." Well, it's in the dance hall opposite the square, Director Dong "Are you going to buy something?," Hu Silian's lover also got out of the car at this time. He heard his wife talk about what happened at the county bureau during the day, so he was very polite to Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly and said, "I wanted to visit the antique store, but I didn't see it after looking for a long time." Hearing this, Hu Silian smiled slightly. "Director Dong also likes antiques?" Then I'll go with you. "I remember there's a restaurant nearby. It should be open now." After saying that, Hu Silian turned to look at her husband, stretched out her hand and said, "Give it to me." You go home first." Her lover is an honest man. After hearing what Hu Silian said, he handed her the lady's handbag sitting on the chair." Then he said goodbye to Dong Xuebin with a silly smile, seemingly obeying Hu Silian's words.
Seeing this scene, Dong Xuebin was extremely emotional, thinking that women who are officials are different. If this man has a lower status than the female official, then the family status will not necessarily change. Hu Silian's family has to remind Dong Xuebin of his own affairs with Xie Huilan. In the process of getting along with each other, "Xie Huilan has always taken the initiative."
"Brother Hu." Hu Silian's lover is also named Hu. Dong Xuebin said, "If you want to go back and it's okay, let's go together. It's inappropriate for me to disturb you two." Haha., "Dong Xuebin has sobered up a little after drinking," "I know that if I go shopping with Hu Silian alone," if someone sees me, some gossip will inevitably spread. I am new here, so I must pay attention to this aspect.
Hu Silian probably also understood Dong Xuebin's concerns, so he nodded to her husband, and then the three of them walked towards the antique shop.
Although Dong Xuebin is not as powerful and majestic as Xie Huilan and other leaders, he also has his shining point, that is, Dong Xuebin respects people. "There is no airs, he said "Brother Hu" made Hu Silian's lover have a great impression of Dong Xuebin. Hu Silian felt very comfortable seeing little Director Dong respecting his lover so much.
Bao Xuan Pavilion, this is an antique shop specializing in porcelain, calligraphy and painting.
As soon as he entered the store, Dong Xuebin fixed his eyes on the pile of porcelain in the west cabinet. Yes, Dong Xuebin doesn't know anything about calligraphy and painting. His goal is porcelain. That time he and Xie Huilan broke a small bowl in Liulichang to identify the authenticity of the porcelain from the fracture. This thing gave Dong Xuebin a taste of the sweetness. He had b at this time seven times. K is here and if it works well, I might be able to pick up the leaks like last time. Of course, Dong Xuebin didn't have high hopes. Firstly, there may not be any missing treasures in this kind of small shop. Secondly, Dong Xuebin has not seen many cross-sections of porcelain. Even if it is real, he might not be able to tell." So he just came here with the mentality of trying his luck.
"Director Dong, do you want to see calligraphy and painting or porcelain?", Hu Silian asked.
"I prefer porcelain."
"Haha, me too." I often watch some antique collection programs on TV. "My favorite is Yuan Blue and White Porcelain." "
"Yeah"Yuan Blue and White Porcelain I like it too. "It's worth hundreds of millions, who doesn't like it. The Power of Time and Wealth 178
Hu Silian's way of doing things has always been smooth." Seeing Dong Xuebin looking absentmindedly at the bottles and jars, she said nothing more. She took her father-in-law to look at the porcelain in another cabinet and did not disturb little Director Dong again.
The store owner came over at this time. "What do you guys want to see?" ", Dong Xuebin pointed to the cabinet. "How do you sell these?", "Oh." The jars from this private kiln cost 5,000, the small bowls from the official kiln cost 30,000, and that Pengzhou kiln also costs 30,000...", Dong Xuebin You must first understand the price. "Otherwise, if the Dong family sells for hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands, "even if I see it is real," I won't be able to miss it. Fortunately, the items are not expensive, and the boss himself must know that they are magic items.
Then, Dong Xuebin started looking for it.
"It took about ten minutes" Dong Xuebin finally selected three pieces of porcelain that he thought were very similar to the real ones. "Huh" let's start.
With a click, Dong Xuebin raised his hand and threw a piece of Longquan Kiln's porcelain in the cabinet to the ground." Then he picked up one of the porcelain pieces and looked at it quickly.
The boss immediately became angry, "What are you doing!", Hu Silian and Brother Hu were also stunned at the same time, "Director Dong" What are you...", Dong Xuebin ignored them, looked at the tile, and felt that it didn't look real, so he quickly got up, grabbed another Yuezhou Kiln and threw it on the cement floor, continuing Analyzing. The boss was anxious, and stepped forward to pull Dong Xuebin, and raised his fists to beat him. Hu Silian thought that little Director Dong might have drunk too much, but as a subordinate, how could he just watch Director Dong being beaten, so he hurriedly backed off his husband. Brother Hu saw this and quickly stopped the store owner.
Dong Xuebin also finished reading the porcelain piece at this time, shook his head, and broke the third porcelain piece.
This one also doesn't look like the real thing.
Soon, he muttered silently, "Baa one minute!"
Time retreats!
The antique shop returned to silence. Hu Silian and Brother Hu were discussing a small porcelain bowl in a low voice. The shop owner smiled and recommended a piece of blue and white porcelain to Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin After dealing with him twice, he picked through a pile of bottles and jars, and finally selected three porcelain pieces.
Click! Dong Xuebin threw it on the ground and repeated the previous work!
Not true!
Not true!
It still doesn't look real!
More than half an hour later" Dong Xuebin has already used baak for six minutes and now only has one minute available!
Hu Silian I bought a small blue and white bowl over there, it's not expensive. It costs more than a thousand yuan. "Director Dong" Which one do you like?"
Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly, "I haven't found anything I like yet."
Hu Silian pointed to a piece of Wucai Cup on the counter. "Actually, I think this is pretty good." "
That cup Dong Xuebin was dropped just now, and the cross-section doesn't look like the real thing. Alas, "Six minutes of baa was wasted, and there is no gain at all." It seems that the quality of the collection in this antique shop is not good. Compared with Capital City, it is so inferior. There are only ten pieces of porcelain in Jiangyi, and not one of them is authentic. "What is this thing? There is still one last minute of baking time, do you want to waste it on this?
Dong Xuebin picked up a Guanyin absentmindedly, hesitating in his heart.
When Hu Silian saw that Director Dong hadn't moved for a long time, he thought he had taken a liking to this Guanyin porcelain, so he laughed and said, "You want to invite a Guanyin home?" "
Brother Hu took a look and reminded, "This is not an antique, it is a modern handicraft.
Hu Silian glanced at her husband with a frown, "Director Dong still don't know this is a handicraft? I want you to tell me!"
Brother Hu huffed and stopped talking.
Dong Xuebin certainly knows that this Guanyin can be sold in any shopping mall, and the value will not exceed two hundred yuan." His eye for antiques is much better than that of Hu Silian. The reason why he took this Guanyin to see is Dong Xuebin was thinking about something. Of course, he couldn't really fall in love with this kind of modern handicraft. Oh, forget it. "No matter what you drop, it won't be genuine." Don't waste bvck in vain. With the decision made, Dong Xuebin put Guanyin back in place, ",..., let's go back." ", he took back his hand and was about to turn around" but his hand accidentally touched the base of Guanyin!
Dong Xuebin is also drunk." His control over his body was greatly reduced. When he reacted, Guanyin had already fallen from the cabinet!
Hu Silian sighed and quickly reached out to pick it up.
But it was still a step too late. There was a crisp sound and the porcelain Guanyin fell to the ground!
"You..." The boss glared at Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin thought to himself, "It's really unlucky." When the shop owner stared at him, he took out his wallet and prepared to compensate others. However, when he caught a glimpse of the broken Guanyin from the corner of his eye, Dong Xuebin suddenly froze, blinked his eyes, and wondered if it was alcohol. It made it difficult to use eyesight, but when Hu Silian and Brother Hu looked at the ground, they were both stunned. Dong Xuebin knew that he had not seen it wrong. He stepped forward in surprise, squeezed the store owner away, squatted down and writhed in the movie! faint! What's going on? What happened?
The boss also saw it at this moment, "dumbed down in disbelief" and took a breath, "This is..." Dong Xuebin didn't have time to think too much, "He said baxk in a hurry for a minute!"
The scene flashed before my eyes!
"You want to invite a Guanyin home?", Hu Silian looked at Dong Xuebin with a smile.
Brother Hu said, "This is not an antique" but a modern handicraft. "
Hu Silian glared at her husband, "...Director Dong Don't you know this is a handicraft?" I want you to say it! "
Time has gone back!!
Dong Xuebin, who came back to his senses, swayed and hurriedly tightened his grip on the Guanyin in his hand and exhaled. He was angry, and then suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to the shop owner, "How can I sell this Guanyin?" "
The shop owner looked at him. This thing was asked by a friend of his to sell it in the shop a few months ago. "The shop owner knew that this thing was not valuable." But because of his friend's face, he still had the nerve to refuse. "Just put it here." No one had even asked in the past few months. The shop owner really didn't think that such a handicraft would be sold, so he said, "If you really want it, I'll give you five hundred." "
Dong Xuebin Without thinking, he asked for five hundred from his wallet and gave it to him.
The store owner was shocked, "I didn't expect him to give the money so happily. Is this person sick? If you go to the mall to buy it, you can get it for one hundred yuan!"
Hu Silian was also slightly startled. Seeing that her husband was hesitant to speak, she pulled her husband's arm and shook her head slightly. They have already reminded Director Dong once. Since Director Dong still has to spend money to buy it, it is difficult for them to persuade them anymore. Talking too much will not be good.
Dong Xuebin knew what they were thinking, and he didn't know that this Guanyin was worthless.
Returning to the work dormitory, Dong Xuebin closed the door and finally smiled.
He carefully placed the Guanyin on the table, then went to the drawer and took out a screwdriver. He rolled up his sleeves and sat on the sofa. He turned the Guanyin over in one hand and stabbed the putty under the porcelain with the screwdriver once, twice and three times. "Four clicks", a hole was suddenly opened in the base. After the fragments fell off, a few wads of paper were exposed at the opening. Dong Xuebin reached out and gently pulled out the paper filled with Guanyin, and slowly placed it on the table.
Turning over these white papers, an exquisite and simple jade Buddha suddenly showed its sharpness!
It's Hetian Jade!
Hetian Mutton Fat White Jade!!
Dong Xuebin smiled. He didn't know who hid this Hetian Jade hair in Guanyin and sealed it with putty, but now, the main lot of his company's first auction was finally done!
Dong Xuebin immediately called Aunt Xuan... I got the stuff. "
Aunt Xuan on the other end didn't think about it for a moment, "What did you get?", "The main item of our first auction, a piece of jade." Only then did Yun Dong react, and his voice paused for several seconds, as if he was speechless. "... What kind of jade?" What era? "
Dong Xuebin said confidently, "I'm sure of the quality of the jade. It's the most precious mutton-fat white jade in Hetian Jade. As for the age, it should be hundreds of years old. I don't know the details. You can take it back and ask an expert to appraise it. Even if the price is less than one million, it's no problem if it's several hundred thousand." ","...Xiao Bin, your... aunt is so jealous of you. "
"What do you want from me? ", "What are you persuading? How long has it been since my aunt called you? Did you miss it again? I can't rob a bank as fast as you! ", "Haha, Xiaoyi" Xiaoyi" I have better luck this time, um, how can I give you the things? ", "It just so happens that I just asked a friend to pick up an expert in your provincial capital this morning. She hasn't come back yet. She is probably on her way back to Beijing. So "I'll ask her to go to Yantai County to find you."
"Do you trust me? This Yu Mu is not cheap."
"It's Xiao Taoer. It turned out that she had been with me for a long time when she was in the newspaper office." Now she has resigned and came to help me. She is trustworthy. "
"Okay, then give me her phone number and I'll contact her. "At about nine o'clock in the evening, Xiao Taoer rushed to a teahouse not far from Dong Xuebin's dormitory community.
Dong Xuebin handed her the wrapped jade oath, and then smiled and said, "Remember to ask Yun Dong to notify me when the auction starts. I will rush back when I have time."
With this mutton-fat jade hairpin, it should attract a lot of attention on the day of the auction!!!!
