Chapter 334 Wedding Begins
" Nie Yun, you said that the value of this blue and white porcelain is only 1,000 dollars, but you don't know who his producer is. If it's a fake blue and white porcelain made by someone else, I'm afraid it's worth a thousand dollars, but Bob Terrell is not an ordinary person!" Zhuang Boyan didn't care about Tang Qingrao at all, but turned his head and said to Nie Yun.
"Bob Terrell is an authentic American. However, he has a very profound study of our Chinese culture!"
"Speaking of which, this Bob Terrell, his ancestor, is indeed the Eight-Nation Alliance!"
"In those years, Bob Terrell's grandfather robbed a lot of antiques from China. When the other Eight-Nation Alliance thought that China's gold and silver were the most valuable, Bob Terrell's grandfather recognized that these fragile and difficult-to-transport porcelain were the most valuable things!"
"In the end, Bob Terrell's grandfather, who was just a major officer at that time, returned to the United States from China with three boxes of antique porcelain."
"And Bob Terrell grew up under the influence of such a family. Since his childhood, Bob Terrell has been wandering in the Chinatown of Los Angeles in the United States, dealing with some Chinese, and even worshiping a antique master in Chinatown!"
"In order to worship the antique master as his teacher, this Bob Terrell took out the three pieces of national treasure-level antique porcelain collected at home directly from home and gave them to this antique master!"
"From that time on, Bob Terrell learned all kinds of fakes, and Bob Terrell learned the fastest. Up to now, Bob Terrell is more than 70 years old. The fake antiques he made, even some senior experts in the antique industry, may be difficult to identify!"
Introduced this Bob Terrell to Nie Yun and others, and finally, Zhuang Boyan said.
The Eight-Nation Alliance entered Yanjing, which was a hundred years ago.
At that time, Bob Terrell's grandfather was a major officer. Now Bob Terrell is in his seventies, which is an absolute master in the antique world!
"Actually, the last time I went to the United States, I made a special trip to visit Bob Terrell. This blue and white porcelain was newly made by Bob Terrell. He specially brought it to me and showed it to me. To be honest, even I almost looked at it and thought it was genuine!" Zhuang Boyen sighed softly.
"Goodly, while Bob Terrell learned the ancient methods of counterfeiting in China, his master also taught him a lot of principles of life. He did not use this to cheat. Otherwise, I'm afraid that our whole antique world will be played by him with applause!"
"This artifact was supposed to be destroyed by Bob Terrell in front of me, but I thought it was at least a rare handicraft, so I stopped him. Unexpectedly, this piece of a piece of goods fell to our Hong Kong and was bought by you!" Looking at Tang Qingrao, Zhuang Boyan couldn't help sighing.
At this moment, Tang Qingrao's face is already pale.
Unexpectedly, this time, Nie Yun was really right. Such a shallow bowl of blue and white porcelain was really a product. Moreover, it is still a piece of a thing that Zhuang Boyan has seen before.
This time, Tang Qingrao lost to Nie Yun again... "You Qingrao, don't be discouraged if you buy this fake. After all, it was made by Bob Terrell himself. If you are interested, you can transfer it to me for 10,000 dollars. You're not wronged to be hit in front of the fake made by Bob Terrell!"
At this time, Zhuang Boyao patted Tang Qingrao on the shoulder and said.
Tang Qingrao's face barely squeezed out a few smiles and lost to Bob Terrell, which was not a shameful thing. But at this moment, Tang Qingrao listened to Zhuang Boyan and always felt that it was not good.
This seems to say that you, Tang Qingrao, are just an ordinary antique enthusiast. It's very eye-catching and normal. And Nie Yun is not an ordinary person. This copy can be seen at a glance... Although Zhuang Boyan is comforting Tang Qingrao, in the eyes of Tang Qingrao, it seems to be supporting Nie Yun. For Tang Qingrao, it is more uncomfortable for him to praise his opponent than to belittle himself... "Uncle Zhuang, I know. Since Uncle Zhuang likes this porcelain, this porcelain will be given to Uncle Zhuang. Ten thousand dollars is still not needed..." Tang Qingrao reluctantly squeezed out a smile on his face and said Zhuang Boyan.
"Ha ha, is my Zhuang Boyan the one who takes advantage of the younger generation? In this way, if you have time, go to my place and pick any antique back. The antiques on my side are worth millions of real products, and there are also some antiques worth tens of thousands of yuan. What you can pick out in the Republic of China depends on your luck!"
With a smile, Zhuang Boyen said.
"Huh? Your blue and white porcelain jar is also a copy of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Well, this copy is at least a little old. In terms of value, it is not inferior to this one made by Bob Terrell!"
And the next moment, Zhuang Boyen suddenly saw the blue and white porcelain jar that Nie Yun had just identified in the corner of the tea room, and said.
At this moment, Tang Qingrao's face is even more ugly... This paragraph is over. In the next time, Zhuang Boyan and Nie Yun and other young people made tea and drank tea in the tea room of the clubhouse.
Zhuang Yawen told Zhuang Boyan vividly about Nie Yun's shooting just now. Zhuang Boyan couldn't help but be interested and made an appointment. If he had time, he would play with Nie Yun again. However, because Tang Jieer doesn't like shooting very much, Zhuang Boyan basically has no chance this time.
Drinking tea this time was not for Tang Qingrao to show his tea ceremony skills, but for Zhuang Boyen to show it himself.
Zhuang Boyan's achievements in the tea ceremony are naturally not comparable to Tang Qingrao. What is hateful is that Tang Qingrao could be better than Nie Yun in the tea ceremony. Unfortunately, now that Zhuang Boyen has come here, Tang Qingrao has no chance to show his tea ceremony skills at all... After drinking tea, it's almost noon, and everyone will definitely eat.
After dinner, they continued to relax. Zhuang Boyan and Tang Jieer also readily agreed with Zhuang Yawen's suggestion to play tennis, so everyone came to the tennis court, changed two sets of sports clothes, and played tennis here.
Tennis is played in mixed doubles for men and women, and only mixed doubles for men and women is relatively good. It can not only exercise, but also cultivate the tacit understanding and feelings between men and women. It is indeed the best way to play sports for girls... Unfortunately, there are only two pairs of people here.
One is Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen, and the other is Zhuang Boyan and Tang Jieer.
Nie Yun also played tennis when he was in school. Although he didn't play very well, he at least knew the rules and his basic skills were solid. Now after getting the aura nourishment of Lingmutong and Jinyutong, Nie Yun's reaction and speed have been greatly improved. Playing tennis is also a master.
Zhuang Yawen is naturally a master of tennis.
And on the other side, Tang Jieer's level is about the same as Zhuang Yawen's.
And Zhuang Boyan is actually a good tennis player. Originally, Nie Yun wanted to bully Zhuang Boyan when he was old, and his reaction might not be able to keep up. He repeatedly wanted to attack Zhuang Boyan, but unfortunately, he was easily solved by Zhuang Boyan. This usually calm old man, when playing tennis, is not ambiguous, decisive, fast, and even stronger than Nie Yun, a young man.
However, Zhuang Boyan would also save face for Nie Yun. He did not attack Nie Yun at all, but just desperately dealt with his niece Zhuang Yawen. Every time Nie Yun conceded the ball, it was basically because of Zhuang Yawen's mistake... Originally, I hoped that after seeing Nie Yun's mistake, Zhu Shaokun, Tang Qingrao and others who replaced Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen, were completely disappointed.
In three consecutive games, Nie Yun lost, but the difference in the score was not too big, and it was not a massacre.
"I won't play anymore. Uncle and Sister Tang are so powerful that I won't fight with them!" The bigger she became, the more depressed she became. Zhuang Yawen played with a child's temper and was not ready to fight.
Naturally, Nie Yun was also the leader of Zhuang Yawen. Zhuang Yawen did not fight. Naturally, Nie Yun also smiled and gave Zhuang Boyan an apologetic look, and he also did not fight.
"Yawen, why don't I try it with you this time? We two brothers and sisters may be better than Uncle Zhuang and my aunt!" It was at this time that Tang Qingrao came over quickly and suggested to Zhuang Yawen.
"Forget it, I don't want to fight. If you want to fight, you can do it yourself. There are so many waiters over there, all of whom are also girls and can play tennis. It shouldn't be difficult to invite them to come and form a team with you, right? Zhuang Yawen glanced at Tang Qingrao and said suddenly.
"This..." Tang Qingrao paused slightly.
"What? Didn't you want to play tennis just now? Why don't you want to fight now? Zhuang Yawen stared at Tang Qingrao and said aggressively.
Tang Qingrao had no choice but to find a waitress and form a team with herself to fight against Zhuang Boyan and Tang Jieer. The girl Tang Qingrao found was also the best among these waitresses. After all, in front of Zhuang Yawen, Tang Qingrao did not want to lose.
Unfortunately, Zhuang Boyan is old and strong, and he doesn't want to play the ball at all. In two rounds in a row, he directly swept Tang Qingrao and the waitress with Tang Jieer... "Uncle, you're tired. Nie Yun and I will take your behalf for you for a while!" Seeing that Zhuang Boyan played five games in a row, Zhuang Yawen said quickly.
Zhuang Boyan wiped the sweat on his forehead, nodded, and withdrew with Tang Jieer.
This time, Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen directly faced Tang Qingrao and the waitress. I have to say that Tang Qingrao's tennis skills are not bad, but there is still a big gap compared with Zhuang Boyan. Although the waitress is also good, she can't be compared with Zhuang Yawen. Therefore, in three consecutive rounds, Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen easily cut off Tang Qingrao.
Tang Qingrao's face was directly green... One afternoon, Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen spent the process of repeatedly ** Tang Qingrao and others.
When Nie Yun and Zhuang Yawen went back in the evening, Tang Qingrao and several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief... And then, a few days later, Zhuang Boyan's wedding also began...
