Chapter 797 Background 798 Negotiation

As the housekeeper of the provincial party committee, to some extent, Director Xia's words and deeds can represent Secretary Qi, and in this territory of China, it can make Secretary Qi, a feudal official, stretch out his hands and hold each other. I'm afraid that in addition to those retired old men, two slaps will also come.

At Zhuang Rui's age, he thought of the car with a Beijing license plate at the door. Among the people present, except for Yu Zhengjun who was still a little confused, the rest of the people's hearts were like a mirror. This young man was absolutely not small.

Mayor Xue's expression at this moment is thoughtful. He is thinking about how to get closer to Zhuang Rui. You know, in his position, if you want to go further, you need to be appointed by the Central Organization Department, not just the province that can decide.

Mayor Cen looked pale. Although he was not very rude just now, the appearance of the joint law enforcement team later, even a fool could guess that it had something to do with him. Coupled with Zhuang Rui's direct reprimand just now, Mayor Cen understood that he was playing on the iron plate this time.

As for Xu Guoqing, the owner here, he is confused and doesn't know what happened at all. In his heart, he still thinks that evil is invincible, and there is justice in the world.

"I'm Zhuang Rui, and you are..."

Reach out and don't hit the smiling face. Zhuang Rui also guessed that the person in front of him should be the relationship that his uncle was looking for. Seeing that Mayor Cen didn't dare to fart in front of him, Zhuang Rui knew that this person's identity was definitely not low.

"My surname is Xia, and my name is Xia Yanbing. I work in the Provincial Party Committee. This time, I was instructed by Secretary Qi to visit Mr. Xu Guoqing, a folk artist..."

Although Xia Yanbing said that he came to see Xu Guoqing, his hands have been holding with Zhuang Rui. The matter has been solved. How can he take care of Xu Guoqing? Finding an opportunity to set Zhuang Rui's background is real.

Although Secretary Qi did not clearly state Zhuang Rui's identity, he could specifically explain that he went on this trip. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to Zhuang Rui or the background behind him. If Secretary Qi can do so, it must be the background above the deputy national level. If it is at the same level, Secretary Qi will not be so arrogant.

So although Xia Yanbing doesn't say much, he has explained the context of this matter clearly, and made it clear that it was explained by Secretary Qi, giving Zhuang Rui enough face behind him.

"Good boy, Secretary Qi..."

As soon as Director Xia said this, Yu Zhengjun grew his mouth in surprise and quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

Not to mention Secretary Qi, Director Xia is in Zhengjun's heart. He is also an unattainable figure. I didn't expect his attitude towards Zhuang Rui to be so kind... No, use the word respectful or more appropriate.

"Old Yu, it's right to listen to me..."

Li Dali was behind Zhengjun and touched him gently with his arm. In fact, Li Dali's heart was also churning. He was eating on the ground in Hebei Province. Seeing this scene, he was also surprised. If Zhuang Rui didn't do it, he would break the sky as soon as he took action.

"That's right, that's right, Mr. Li, I'll arrange it in the evening, and I will definitely serve Mr. Zhuang..."

Yu Zhengjun nodded repeatedly, thinking to himself whether to let the college student Xiaomi, find a few classmates to save the scene. I guess Zhuang Rui would like to be younger and pure.

"Hehe, in this situation, I'm afraid it's not your turn..."

Li Dali laughed and pouted at the two people who shook hands. If Zhuang Rui didn't leave, Director Xia would definitely arrange it. Yu Zhengjun couldn't get on the table at all.

"Oh, thank Secretary Qi, and thank Director Xia for taking time out of his busy schedule to deal with this matter..."

How did Zhuang Rui know which one Secretary Qi was? However, I guess that the little uncle must have a lot of face. Nine times out of ten, he is the boss of Hebei Province. It is reasonable for Mayor Cen to admit defeat.

"Mr. Zhuang, today's matter has wronged Mr. Xu Guoqing. I will invite Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Xu to dinner in the evening, and I hope you two can give face..."

The boss needs people who give face, and he must serve him. Besides, Xia Yanbing, the big housekeeper, has been working for five or six years. Next year, there will be a deputy governor in the province, and he is still very hopeful to rise to the next level.

Although Secretary Qi needs to be nominated for such a thing, the decision-making power is still in the central government. Isn't it an old saying that there are people in the court who are easy to be officials? Director Xia also wants to know more people, and maybe he can help himself sometime.

"Evening?"

Zhuang Rui looked at his watch. It was already past 5 p.m. Looking at the sky outside, the sun was about to set. He wanted to talk about something with Xu Guoqing, but he didn't expect that he hadn't talked about anything about such a play.

"It seems that I can't go back to Beijing again today..."

Zhuang Rui sighed in his heart. He couldn't help himself in the world. Originally, he thought that something that could be done in a day would always go wrong. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll trouble Director Xia that night..."

The relationship my uncle found gave him enough face, and Zhuang Rui didn't want to refuse other people's face. Everyone carried the sedan chair, and they could only agree, but when he saw Mayor Cen beside him, Zhuang Rui was suddenly angry.

"Director Xia, although attracting investment is the focus of all provinces, some people's purpose is not very pure. They help the Japanese to obtain the formula of traditional Chinese porcelain. This behavior is almost the same as selling * countries..."

When Zhuang Rui said this, his eyes had been staring at Mayor Cen. This slap in the face made Mayor Cen's old face pale, and he looked at Mayor Xue like a pair of eyes asking for help. In front of Director Xia, he had no chance to speak at all.

"Mr. Zhuang, this is a mistake in our work. Although the city has repeatedly stressed that economic development cannot ignore the construction of civilization, some comrades have still done something sad. Don't worry, we will definitely take this as a warning, and we will also criticize Mayor Cen's behavior..."< /P>

Mayor Xue's words completely disappointed Mayor Cen. Originally, he expected him to give him a hand. Unexpectedly, Mayor Xue not only did not help, but also followed and kicked himself, which made Mayor Cen almost desperate.

Mayor Cen was still a little reluctant and said, "Xue...Mayor Xue, this is centered on economic construction, but, but..."

"Stop talking, Mayor Cen, you go back first, do a good self-criticism, and recognize the mistakes you have made at work..."

Mayor Xue interrupted Mayor Cen's words and didn't let him continue to talk. Are you kidding? Although I said everything centered on economic development and construction, I didn't let you cooperate with the little devils to get other people's formulas.

Mayor Cen saw that the matter had come to this point. Although he was resentful, it was useless to stay here. At present, he lowered his head and hurriedly left with his arrogant Secretary Liu. He also had a little background behind him, wondering if he could save something, at least the administrative level could not fall down.

"Xu Gong, Mr. Yu, Mr. Li, let's go, Director Xia's treat, let's go to dinner together..."

Seeing that the annoying person has left, and Peng Fei said that Shanmu's little devil's life is not long, Zhuang Rui is in a good mood at this moment.

"I...we're going too?"

The biggest official Yu Zhengjun has seen in his life is the county master. He didn't expect to have dinner with provincial and municipal leaders today, and he suddenly couldn't believe it.

"Of course, let's go together, by the way, let me introduce it to you. This is Mr. Li, this is Mr. Yu, Mayor Xue, you are their parents..."

Zhuang Rui pulled Yu Zhengjun, who was at a loss, and made an introduction to Mayor Xue. As for Director Xia, he was from the province, so he didn't say much.

Yu Zhengjun and Li Dali were both people on the scene. Naturally, they knew what to do. The business card was immediately handed over. Looking at Zhuang Rui's face, it was also a scene of warmth and people having fun together.

"Zhuang...Brother Zhuang, I won't go, will I?"

Although Xu Guoqing is a nobody, he is not a fool. He can see that Zhuang Rui helped him, but at this time, his mind is still on those Cizhou kilns that have not begun to be fired, and he is not very enthusiastic about eating.

"Mr. Xu, you must go. You are a master of contemporary art in our city. That's a great thing. You need to publicize it well, and you can put forward any requirements in the future..."

Before Zhuang Rui could answer, Mayor Xue grabbed Xu Guoqing. As early as he came, he heard Director Xia's introduction of the story. If Xu Guoqing could really copy the ancient porcelain of Cizhou, it would also be an opportunity for Shishi to improve the urban cultural brand.

"I can't, I can't, how can I be a master?"

After hearing Mayor Xue's words, Xu Guoqing shook his head and waved his hand repeatedly, and his face turned red. He studied the restoration and imitation of ancient ceramics, which was completely out of interest. Even Xu Guoqing himself did not know his ancient porcelain imitation process, which was out of reach in China.

"Xu Gong, let's go. The firing of porcelain can't be completed in a day or two. I still have something to talk to you about in the evening. Let's live in Shishi together..."

When Zhuang Rui saw Xu Guoqing's refusal, he advised him. Seeing that Xu Guoqing could imitate the official kiln porcelain of the ancient Cizhou kiln, Zhuang Rui had a lot of ideas in his heart.

From Gaoxian County to Shishi City, but it is only more than half an hour's drive. The group went to Shishi for dinner. The place of the meal was in a guest house of the Provincial Party Committee. Although it was not very ostentatious, the dishes were very exquisite, which made Zhuang Rui enjoy the authentic Hebei cuisine.

"Mr. Zhuang, the room has been arranged. Call me directly if you need anything..."

After dinner, Director Xia took a few room cards and gave them to Zhuang Rui. Now he also admires this young man very much. How did Zhuang Rui's words at dinner just now failed to tell his origin.

Chapter 789 If it were changed to Zhuang Rui more than two years ago, I'm afraid that Director Xia would have figured it out by Director Xia in three or five sentences.

However, now Zhuang Rui is also an old Jianghu. After eating a meal, he speaks watertightly. Director Xia has been doing it for a long time, and he doesn't know who the background behind Zhuang Rui is.

"Thank you, Director Xia. This is my personal phone number. You must contact me when you go to Beijing in the future..."

When Director Xia was about to leave, Zhuang Rui handed over a business card, but it was his film at the Dingguang Museum.

Seeing this business card, Director Xia seemed to think of something. It seems that in the past few months, the relevant departments mentioned the museum below, but Director Xia has forgotten the specific matter.

"Mr. Zhuang's business card, that's a must. Mr. Zhuang won't be stingy..."

Seeing that Zhuang Rui did not take the initiative to hand over his business card, Mayor Xue was cheeky and went straight to it.

At dinner just now, in order to brag about himself, Mr. Li intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the Beijing suburban club several times, and implicitly said that the clubhouse was Zhuang Rui's. Mayor Xue was very excited. Otherwise, in his identity, he really couldn't do anything to ask for a business card.

"If not, Mayor Xue is too polite..."

Zhuang Rui really didn't plan to give it to him, but if he didn't give it, it was equivalent to a slap in the face in public. Zhuang Rui quickly handed over a piece and smiled bitterly in his heart.

This is how the relationship is formed. In the future, the two of them will go to Beijing and say that they will call themselves. Today, they will eat for nothing and fall in love. At that time, they will definitely have to pay it back.

This official uses the government's money to solicit favors, but he has to pay out of his own pocket.

Zhuang Rui couldn't help but admire Ouyang Jun. Others were begging for government officials, and Ouyang Jun only used a clubhouse to integrate these resources, let those officials rush to send him money, and the whole thing turned upside down.

After Mayor Xue and Director Xia left, Zhuang Rui breathed a sigh of relief. It was really tiring to talk to these old foxes. There was a front hidden in every sentence, and if he was not careful, he would reveal the bottom. Zhuang Rui didn't want to be thought by outsiders and swaggered outside under the banner of the

"Xu Gong, let's go to the room to talk..."

Zhuang Rui pulled Xu Guoqing to go to the room, but he was stopped by Li Dali. "Mr. Zhuang, when you come to Shishi, why do you want me to fulfill the friendship of the landlord? I have arranged all the activities in the evening..."

Li Dali still has a little energy in Shishi. During the meal just now, he went out to make a phone call to book a nightclub, and then called a few good female students from Shishi Art School, so he was ready to greet Zhuang Rui in the evening.

"Forget it, Mr. Li, Xu Gong and I have something to talk about. I'll take it. You can go and play..."

Zhuang Rui shook his head. He was not very interested in those entertainment venues, and when he saw Li Dali talking, he was probably a little pornographic. His daughter-in-law was pregnant, and Zhuang Rui didn't want to make something cheating.

"Mr. Zhuang, this can't be..."

"Mr. Li, needless to say, have a good time. I have something to do tomorrow. I've finished talking today. I'm going back to Beijing early tomorrow morning..."

Zhuang Rui waved his hand to interrupt Li Dali's words. Seeing Zhuang Rui's insistence, Li Dali could only leave with Yu Zhengjun. This arranged program made it cheaper for Yu Zhengjun.

"Peng Fei, go back and have a rest..."

Director Xia opened three rooms for Zhuang Rui. After Zhuang Rui asked Peng Fei to move by himself, he took Xu Guoqing to his room.

"Brother Zhuang, thank you very much for this incident..."

Xu Guoqing is not a Yumu's head. He knew that if there was no Zhuang Rui today, he said that he might have to stay in the bureau for a few days, and the recipe of burning Tang Sancai and Cizhou kiln would fall into the hands of the Japanese.

"Xu Gong, I won't mention these words. You can imitate Tang Sancai and Cizhou Guanyao just by interest. I admire them very much. Those so-called masters at the level of researchers with national salaries are far worse than you..."

Zhuang Rui got up and poured a cup of tea for Xu Guoqing. Although the hostel was not very eye-catching, Zhuang Rui took a look and found that the tea on the tea on the table was actually the best tea before the rain, which cost thousands of yuan for one or two yuan. It can be seen that the people he usually entertained are very authentic.

"Mr. Zhuang, Tang Sancai's firing formula is relatively mature, but Cizhou kiln porcelain is only in the experimental stage. Although the embryo making and painting in the early stage have been completed, the firing heat has not been fully mastered, and I'm afraid it still needs a lot of experiments..."

Xu Guoqing corrected Zhuang Rui's statement. He used earth and glaze for porcelain based on a large number of Cizhou kiln fragments collected by his father before. After several years of experiments, he completed the early embryo-making work, but just as he was about to start firing, he did not expect that he had gone bankrupt.

"Mr. Zhuang, do you still want Tang Sancai? I can take time to burn it for you. The technology is relatively mature and the cost is not too much..."

Xu Guoqing is really grateful to Zhuang Rui. He has been guessing Zhuang Rui's idea. The other party came to visit him when he saw the Tang Sancai he burned, so Xu Guoqing estimated that Zhuang Rui still wanted the three-color pottery figurines.

Zhuang Rui thought for a moment and said, "If Tang Sancai wants it, but Lao Li still needs dozens of pieces, which is not in urgent need. I want Cizhou porcelain now. I don't know how long it will take for Xugong to burn it out?"

The price of Tang Sancai in the international market, especially the three-color pottery frugs with good quality, is much higher than that in the domestic market. There are many foreign collectors who like to collect Tang Sancai. Zhuang Rui wants to release a batch and fool some foreign money first.

However, the number of porcelain released must not be large. At most, only two or three pieces can be released at a time, and the places should be scattered. One from Germany and one from France, so as not to arouse the suspicion of international auction houses.

So the dozens of pieces in Li Dali's hand have been enough for Zhuang Rui to operate for a period of time. More importantly, those porcelains have been manually worn out, which also saves Zhuang Rui's process, otherwise it will be quite troublesome.

The old porcelain alone is a very tedious process. The more primitive method is to wipe off the light of the surface with cowhide first. This process lasts from a few weeks to two months.

Then, put the porcelain into the water with alkali in the tea and boil it for 5-6 hours to remove the "thief light" on the surface, which is also a little particular about it. High-temperature porcelain is generally deluminated with hydrofluoric acid, while low-temperature porcelain is deluminated with potassium permanganate and trace acid.

Finally, polish the porcelain with leather shoe polish, and then bury it in the soil. The porcelain surface will "eat" the soil into the porcelain, so that the old feeling is made.

Although this method takes a long time, the effect of making it old is much better than the method of directly polishing porcelain with fine sandpaper, and the pulping effect after mud is also much higher than the method of making old quickly.

There are many ways to make old porcelain, such as wear, peeling glaze, poking bubbles, removing firelight for color, making soil rust, etc. Here's a general mention, I won't say more about professional ones.

When Xu Guoqing heard Zhuang Rui's question, he thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it will take at least half a year to restore Cizhou porcelain, and, and..."

"Xu Gong has something to say, it's okay..."

When Zhuang Rui saw Xu Guoqing's rectum, it seemed that there was something unspeakable.

Xu Guoqing scratched his head with embarrassment and said, "Brother Zhuang, I used to only care about my own interests and hobbies. I care too little about my family. The child's mother was so angry that she went back to her mother's home. I... I thought that I would take out 300,000 yuan for your 500,000 yuan The cost of magnetic state kiln porcelain..."

After today's incident, Xu Guoqing realized that his family had not received a penny since 2000, and his daughter-in-law and children had been struggling with him, so he said this.

"So how much money do you need?" Zhuang Rui asked.

"It's hard to say. Porcelain soil is worthless, but the glaze is very expensive, and at the beginning, there was a lot of waste. If it goes well, five or six million yuan will be enough. If it gets stuck, I'm afraid two or three million won't solve the problem..."

Xu Guoqing's tens of millions of people are just tossing around like this. In retrospect, he also feels a little like a dream. He is so poor that he can't eat. Why is he still so interested in porcelain?

But if Xu Guoqing is allowed to return to that laboratory now, I'm afraid this buddy will still plunge into it without asking about the world.

With the middle finger of his right hand, Zhuang Rui unconsciously knocked on the table of the glass coffee table and pondered. Xu Guoqing didn't know what Zhuang Rui was thinking and didn't say anything. The room was silent for a moment.

After about ten minutes, Zhuang Rui said, "Well, Xugong, I have an idea. Do you think it's okay? There is no need to open your factory again. I will invest and convert the factory into a laboratory specializing in the restoration of ancient ceramics. Do you think it's okay?"

"It's okay, but brother, this laboratory is a money-burning business. It doesn't matter if I like this, but you have to waste your money..."

If Zhuang Rui wants to invest, Xu Guoqing certainly has no objection, so it doesn't matter if the other party takes money to play for himself? However, Xu Guoqing is relatively realistic, and the ugly words are in the front.

"You can't say that, Xugong, I can take these porcelains you fired as authentic and take them to the international auction market. I won't tell you the truth. As long as you can successfully auction three or five artifacts, these capital can come back..."

Zhuang Rui said what he had been thinking about for a long time. After saying that, he stared at Xu Guoqing.
