Chapter 224 Why Don't You Tell Me When You Come

Chen Yi pondered for a while: "Do you believe me?"

"Of course I believe it! You are my buddy, if I don't believe it, who do you believe?"

"I'll take a few wood carvings and find a suitable buyer. Just wait for my news."

Jiang Xiangtao nodded. Although he didn't believe that Chen Yi could find a buyer, it didn't matter if he took away a few wood carvings. Anyway, he didn't think these things could be worth too much money.

Chen Yi picked four woodcarvings in total, two were carved by Jiang Xiangtao's grandfather himself, and the other two were uploaded by Jiang's family ancestors.

Before leaving, Chen Yi asked Jiang Xiangtao for his new mobile phone number, and then told him again:

"You must remember, wait for my news, don't sell the house or yard, and don't move these wood carvings."

Seeing Chen Yi's seriousness, Jiang Xiangtao agreed and sent them both to the door.

When Chen Yi and Sun Hongfei got into the Porsche Cayenne, Jiang Xiangtao opened his mouth wide.

It was only then that he realized that Chen Yi and the others took out 30,000 yuan, which was almost like taking out a few pieces of tissue paper.

Chen Yi originally wanted to give Jiang Xiangtao 30,000 yuan first, but he didn't have that much cash with him.

For the mobile phone transfer, Jiang Xiangtao's mobile phone was still an old man's phone, which made Chen Yi very helpless, so Chen Yi planned to send the money to Jiang Xiangtao tomorrow.

As for finding a wood carving buyer, Chen Yi didn't find it difficult.

After all, those old men in Tianlingyuan caught a lot of them.

Back in downtown Qingzhou, Chen Yi asked Sun Hongfei to park the car on the side of the road.

"I'll drive." Chen Yi said, opened the car door, and changed places with Sun Hongfei.

"Can you do it?"

Sun Hongfei was a little worried. He knew that Chen Yi had just obtained his driver's license not long ago and was a newcomer.

but.

Chen Yi drove unexpectedly fast and steady, and Sun Hongfei gradually let go of the stone in his heart.

After about an hour, Chen Yi finally got close to his destination.

However, the car was blocked by a gate.

There is a sign next to it: Private territory, do not disturb strangers.

Chen Yi looked at it and found it a bit troublesome.

Chen Yi and Sun Hongfei got out of the car and took a closer look.

The gate is closed, the wall is very high, and there is barbed wire on the top, which is electrified.

Sun Hongfei said: "Heh, this family is in trouble, it's heavily guarded, Chen Yi, what should we do?"

Chen Yi didn't say a word, but when he saw the doorbell, microphone and video monitor beside the gate, he went up and pressed it.

Soon, a human voice came out through the loudspeaker.

"Who? Do you have an appointment?"

"We want to meet Mr. Lin, and we have a few things for him to look at." Chen Yi said honestly.

"Sorry, Mr. Lin is not at home now, please go back."

After the people inside finished speaking, they heard a "beep", which seemed to be that the walkie-talkie was turned off.

After eating, Chen Yi was speechless.

The butler of Mr. Lin's house has such a temper?

At the moment, Chen Yi also wants a housekeeper.

"Chen Yi, what should we do? Go back?" Sun Hongfei asked.

To say that he ran so far and let Chen Yi return without success, he was really not reconciled.

When Chen Yi was hesitating, he heard the sound of a car approaching.

Turning around, it was a large Audi sedan.

As the Audi approached, the rear windows dropped.

Then the man felt something was wrong and got out of the car quickly.

"Chen Yi, why are you here?"

It was Lin Ying who got out of the car.

One of Mr. Lin's two granddaughters.

"Yo, what a coincidence." Chen Yi said with a smile, "We want to meet Mr. Lin."

As Chen Yi said, he looked at the closed door.

Lin Ying understood right away, and said, "Grandpa has made an appointment to go out with a few shopkeepers to shop for treasures. Get in the car first. I'll take you in and drink tea here first. My grandpa should be back in a while."

Lin Ying dared not neglect Chen Yi.

"Go out to shop for treasures?" Chen Yi immediately laughed.

Lin Ying looked at Chen Yi's smile, pursed her lips, and said in her heart: Why do you think my grandpa went out to search for treasures?

Didn't you buy all his good things?

These old men who had settled down have gone out again!

Let it out again!

This time, I don't know how many people will be missed again.

Lin Ying had no doubts about her grandfather's ability to pick up leaks. Back then, he bought a blue and white porcelain bowl for two yuan.

If it is resold, it will be several million!

Chen Yi nodded, "Convenience?"

"What's the inconvenience?"

Since Lin Ying said so, Chen Yi was not polite, and immediately called Sun Hongfei to sit in the Audi car together.

After the gate, there is still a section of mountain road

The Audi car drove through the forest for four or five minutes before seeing a huge mansion.

There is also a small square outside the mansion, and in the middle of the square is a European-style fountain.

After getting out of the car and standing in front of the mansion, I feel even more majestic.

Chen Yi took a look. Although this place is larger than his No. 1 villa, the terrain is too remote, and the price difference is a world of difference.

It's like a house in Lujiazui can buy a building in a third- and fourth-tier city.

After entering the mansion, it seemed a lot more plain, without the extravagance as imagined.

Maybe Mr. Lin doesn't want people to think that he is a layman covered in money.

Of course, for a family like this, servants and housekeepers must be indispensable.

A well-dressed man came over: "Miss Lin, you are finally back."

"Xiao Xue, how is uncle?" Lin Ying asked.

Chen Yi and the two listened nearby, it turned out that everyone in the Lin family lived here, how lively it was.

Chen Yi sighed, now he lives alone in Villa No. 1, and he has nowhere to talk about it.

"I'm sulking, I can't even eat." Xiao Xue said in a low voice.

"What happened?"

"Hey, don't mention it, I received something and was tricked."

When Lin Ying heard this, she looked at Chen Yi and said, "My uncle is the most jealous of others cheating him in this regard."

"Miss Lin, then go and persuade Mr. Lin." Xiao Xue said with a wry smile.

Lin Ying nodded: "Leave it to me."

Lin Ying looked at Chen Yi: "Chen Yi, you sit here first, I'll go and have a look, Xiao Xue, hurry up and serve tea."

"What did you receive?" Chen Yi was a little interested.

"Then, why don't you come with me."

Chen Yi nodded, then asked Sun Hongfei to wait outside, and entered Lin Zhuojie's study with Lin Ying.

Of course, the study is quite big, it must be twenty or thirty square meters.

Surrounded by mahogany shelves, there are books and classics on some shelves, and various strange stones on some shelves.

Of course, decorations such as wood carvings are also indispensable.

It seems that this person really likes to collect such things.

At this time, at the desk at the end of the study, Lin Zhuojie was sitting and drinking tea, but his face was stern and unattractive.

Seeing Lin Ying coming in, Lin Zhuojie paused and said, "Xiaoying, you're back."

"Yo, uncle, what's the matter with you? It's like someone owes you two to five or eighty thousand."

Lin Ying joked as she walked there.

"Even if someone really owes me 250,000 to 80,000 yuan, I won't be like this!"

Lin Ying pursed her lips and smiled, and pulled Chen Yi from behind.

"Uncle, let me introduce you. This is Chen Yi, my friend and the old man's friend."

Father's friend?

Lin Zhuojie stood up, gave Chen Yi enough courtesy, then shook hands with Chen Yi, and said in a heavy tone: "Hello".

From this point of view, Lin Zhuojie was in a very bad mood.

"Uncle, what's going on? Why did you make people fool you?"

Lin Zhuojie pointed to an object on the desk and said: "This is it. An old acquaintance passed it to me. I thought he wouldn't make a fake to fool me, but I took it back and looked at it, okay! Rubbish stuff."

What Lin Zhuojie pointed to was a square columnar object, the whole body was pale yellow, with a somewhat transparent feeling, and it looked quite beautiful under the light.

There are also some patterns carved on the surface of the object, which are probably Yunsong, Gaoshi, and pavilion figures in the mountains.

"What is this?" Lin Ying asked curiously.

Chen Yi knew it at a glance, and blurted out: "Tian Huangshi."

When Lin Zhuojie heard this, he looked at Chen Yi carefully: "You also know Tian Huang?"

Chen Yi nodded: "The Four Great National Stones, Shoushan Stone, Changhua Stone, Balin Stone, and this Qingtian Stone on your table."

Tianhuang is a kind of Qingtian stone.

"Oh? Not bad, you young man knows so much."

Lin Zhuojie picked up the Qingtian Stone on the table and handed it to Chen Yi.

"Then take a look, how about this Qingtian Stone?"

"Such a large piece of Qingtian stone...it's incredible..." Chen Yi weighed the stone in his hands, "The weight...is no problem."

Chen Yi turned the Qingtian stone back and forth, carefully looked at the pattern on it, and laughed.

"The carving of this Qingtian stone carving looks pretty good."

Lin Ying couldn't help asking: "Chen Yi, is this true or false?"

Lin Zhuoming swept away the depression on his face just now, and looked at Chen Yi with great interest. He really wanted to hear what this young man would say.

"This Qingtian stone is very big, so it must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"That's right, guess how much I spent?" Lin Zhuojie asked back.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "It's really hard to guess. Qingtian Stone is a single-grain monolith produced in the farmland of Wushan Mountain."

"Such a big Tianhuang..." Chen Yi pondered for a few seconds and continued, "I think if the seller is fair, it will be between 1 million and 1.5 million."

Lin Ying listened and looked at Lin Zhuoming, as if asking: "Is he right?"

Lin Zhuoming clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up: "Xiaoying, your friend is not simple, he is a knowledgeable person! I bought this Tianhuang stone carving for 1.2 million."

Lin Zhuoming sighed at this point: "I was quite happy at first, but when I came back and took a closer look, I, I just wanted to curse!"

Lin Ying listened and looked at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi nodded helplessly: "Look, this piece of Tianhuang stone looks fine, but I just need to lightly scratch it with my fingernails..."

As he spoke, Chen Yi scratched the side of the stone with his fingernails, and some powder fell off.

"Ah, what's going on?" Lin Ying was surprised.

"This stone is too soft, like powder, that is to say, it is actually the raw material stone for making talcum powder." After a few seconds, Chen Yi added, "The color of this stone is dyed, but It's so finely dyed that it's hard to distinguish."

After hearing what Chen Yi said, Lin Zhuoming was surprised.

He originally thought that even though this young man was the old man's friend, he only knew a little bit about it. He didn't expect that just by holding it in his hand, looking at it, and touching it, he would understand all the tricks in his chest.

This skill is not something ordinary people can possess.

But judging from Chen Yi's age, he is only in his twenties, so he shouldn't have such a profound accumulation of knowledge.

Lin Ying had seen Chen Yi's ability to appraise treasures before, and she believed in him at this moment.

"Uncle, since you know that person lied to you, go to him! Return the goods!"

Lin Zhuojie shook his head with a wry smile, unable to speak.

Chen Yi said: "Wanning stones is like antiques. Buy it and leave it. The money and goods are cleared. Even if you know you have been tricked, you can't get it back. This is an unspoken rule."

Lin Zhuojie nodded, strange to say, after hearing what Chen Yi said, he felt better.

It's like meeting a soulmate.

Lin Zhuojie hurriedly called the servants to come in and prepare tea for the guests.

"Forget it, I'm not upset about money, it's just because I'm cheated, that's all."

Lin Zhuojie sighed again: "I've been playing with rocks for many years, I never thought I would be tricked so badly now."

At this time, the sunlight came in from the window and shone on Tianhuangshi, making it more transparent.

Chen Yi noticed something by accident, and quickly picked up Tian Huangshi and raised it above his head.

"Huh? This is wrong..."

"What's wrong?" Lin Ying asked.

Lin Zhuojie also looked at Chen Yi strangely.

Chen Yi smiled, "Find me a spatula, a pair of gloves and a plate."

Lin Zhuojie was even more strange, and looked at Lin Ying.

Lin Ying shrugged, expressing that she didn't know what was going on.

After a while, the servants brought spatulas, gloves and plates.

Chen Yi put the square pillar-shaped stone on the plate, then smiled mysteriously at Lin Zhuojie and Lin Ying, and poked it with a spatula.

Lin Zhuojie was shocked. Although it was a fake, it was still a stone sculpture, and if it was destroyed, nothing would be left.

"Hey! You..."

"Trust me." Chen Yi said with a smile.

Lin Ying also waved to her uncle beside her, telling him not to speak.

Without waiting for Lin Zhuojie to agree, Chen Yi used a scraper to scrape the fake field yellow stone one by one.

And more and more powder fell on the plate.

Lin Zhuojie unexpectedly discovered that there was another stone wrapped in the fake field yellow stone.

Gradually, the outer layer of powder was scraped away by Chen Yi, and the stone finally revealed its true appearance.

"This is..." At this moment, a brand new square columnar stone appeared on the plate.

The color is very different from the previous light yellow, the color is deeper, and the texture seems to be more transparent.

Not only that, but the surface of this stone is still engraved with a pattern, which is also a mountain figure, which is basically the same as the previous pattern.

"Mr. Lin, I don't know who sold this stone." Chen Yi smiled slightly, "He may think it is a fake Tianhuang stone carving, but in fact the real one is hidden in the outer skin."

"Oh!"

Lin Zhuojie didn't have the airs he had before, like a child discovering a fun toy.

Lin Zhuojie couldn't help holding the newly born Tian Huangshi in his hand, and first stroked it. It felt very good, cool and smooth.

And the size of this Tian Huangshi, although a layer of skin has been scraped off, is still very impressive.

Tian Huangshi of this size is definitely rare in the world!

Then, Lin Zhuojie scraped the surface of Tian Huangshi with his nails, and no more powder fell off.

Lin Zhuojie shook his head and said with a smile: "This time it turned out to be true. It has made me depressed for so long. I really... I really didn't expect such a mystery."

Lin Zhuojie looked very excited, as if he lost his wallet and found it again.

He took Tian Huangshi and looked at it carefully, and said to Lin Ying: "Xiaoying, look, this carving is much more detailed than the one just now. This knife is not ordinary, but I don't know which famous artist it is from."

Lin Ying pursed her lips and smiled: "Uncle, don't be so happy, you haven't thanked Chen Yi yet."

Lin Zhuojie was stunned, and quickly held Chen Yi's hand: "Xiaoying is right, I really want to thank you this time, if it weren't for you, I would have been depressed for a long time, and besides, I might give this thing away casually If you give it to anyone, it may be a big loss!"

Chen Yi said: "You don't need to thank me, I just discovered it by chance. I was like you before, but I just thought it was a rough stone of talcum powder."

Before, Chen Yi judged with knowledge, not with the eyes of truth.

"It's strange for you to say, how come your eyesight is so good!"

"Uncle, let me tell you, even my grandfather has been praising Chen Yi, saying that he is the most talented person in antique appraisal among the younger generation!" Lin Ying said with a smile.

"Oh? So powerful..."

At this time, Lin Zhuojie realized that he really underestimated the young man in front of him before.

I didn't expect the old man to say that about him.

He knew the old man's temper, and he almost didn't say enough unless the man had real skills.

Then, a voice sounded outside the door.

"Xiaoying, are you back?"

"grandfather!"

Lin Ying looked at Lin Dongpeng, and then watched him open his hand.

She was taken aback for a moment, what happened to grandpa today? so enthusiastic.

It's really strange, but well, it's not easy to return to innocence when people are old, so hugs are just hugs.

At that moment, she also opened her hands and ran over.

But the next moment, it was empty.

I saw my grandfather hugged Chen Yi, "Chen Xiaoyou, why did you come to my place? You didn't tell the old man in advance."

Lin Ying: "..."
