The First Ninety-Two Chapters Get Together Very Happy

"By the way, where are your group of assistants and experts?" Xiao Qi changed the topic in a timely manner to avoid Yang Xue's embarrassment.

"They are resting in the hotel. We just bought some flower-and-bird paintings by Mr. Li Kuchan this morning, some pictures of donkeys by Mr. Huang Zhou, and a masterpiece of "Wanshan Hongbian" by Mr. Li Keran. It was a worthwhile trip. Ah!" Mentioning this, Yang Xue became excited, "It was not easy for us to find this relationship, and we made contact when we were in Guangdong Province a few days ago. We came to Hong Kong early this morning, and went to the collector's house early in the morning. At home. After confirming the authenticity, buy it directly at a high price, and make the few hesitant people next to you regret it, haha!"

Because Hong Kong has brought together many rich people, businessmen, scholars, etc. from the mainland, many cultural relics have also come here. The annual Christie’s auctions, Sotheby’s auctions, Poly auctions, etc. here are not inferior in momentum and scale. In the mainland, even before 2010, it was still in the first place in the mainland.

The three people mentioned by Yang Xue just now are all extremely famous painters in modern times. Except for Huang Zhou who only loves to paint donkeys all his life, the rest of Li Kuchan and Li Keran are absolutely super masters, not at all better than the hyped Zhang Da｜top｜ Point｜What is the difference between Xiaoqian and Qi Baishi? Of course, both Li Keran and Li Kuchan once worshiped Qi Baishi as a teacher, and they dare not compare in terms of seniority.

However, their artistic attainments are absolutely superb.

Take Li Keran's "Wan Shan Hong Bian" as an example. He painted six large and small paintings of this theme in one go, one of which was 131x84 in size.

Li Kuchan's current price is not that high. However, if you take out his two huge treasures of two feet in length, "Ink Bamboo Picture" and "Midsummer Picture", 100 million pieces are still safe.

Besides, both of them are very original painters, and in the future, the prices of their works will only increase, not decrease.

Of course, Yang Xue is very proud of being able to buy such a good painting with potential.

Xiao Qi heard that it was "Wan Shan Hong Bian", and he became more energetic, "What is the size of "Wan Shan Hong Bian"? What's the price?"

"The size is 131x84, the 1964 version. The collector bought it for 35 million Hong Kong dollars at Christie's Spring Auction last year. We gave him a price of 50 million yuan. He agreed directly." Yang Xuedao. "You don't know, the other Hong Kong collectors who went with us, looking at the drooling looks, obviously didn't expect such a generous bid from me, so they won the first prize in one fell swoop!"

Xiao Qi was overjoyed.

It was indeed the one I remembered!

Although it was bought for 50 million. But in the future, the auction will be able to sell 255 million yuan. Although the subsequent taxes and commissions have little to do with the actual price, the price close to 300 million is still the highest benchmark among modern painters. Only Qi Baishi's 400 million paintings can surpass it!

"Not bad." Xiao Qi said, "Your vision is really good."

It happened that the proprietress over there brought a few bottles of beer, Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi helped to open and pour them, Xiao Qi raised the glass and touched Yang Xue, "Have you worked hard all this time?"

Yang Xue drank all the ice-cold beer in one gulp, and said with a long breath, "It's hard work. I stayed in a five-star hotel along the way, and the food was the best. There are cars for getting in and out, just like exclusive... But you The money given has been used up, and our next step is to go north along southern Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region are one of the key acquisition areas, and additional funds are needed.”

"No problem, I'll have someone transfer it to your account." Xiao Qi put down his sipped beer glass, pondered for a while and said, "Is another five billion enough?"

"Almost." Yang Xue nodded and said, "No matter how expensive jade and jade are, there is a specific price. Wenwan and antiques are very abstract, and sometimes they are a little more expensive.... Oh, thank you!"

"You're welcome~~"

Like Feng Kexin, Li Shaozhi, who had already taken off his sunglasses and hat, poured another glass of beer for Yang Xue, and agreed with a sweet smile.

It's not that Yang Xue has never seen beautiful women. In fact, it is almost impossible to have a girl more beautiful than Huangfu Cai, but Li Shaozhi is a big star who grew up with Xiao Qi and young people of his generation. She is as beautiful as a flower, even Yang Xue couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

After doing business outside for so long, Yang Xue has cultivated his temperament, but compared to the rich and powerful in Hong Kong, he still looks very young.

But Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi didn't mean to despise him at all, just because Xiao Qi was willing to drink a glass of beer with him, it proved that his relationship with Xiao Qi was absolutely ironclad.

The two beauties knew that even if they had dinner with Li Chaoren and the others, Xiao Qi would at most have a sip of champagne, as he was a bit allergic to alcohol, he didn't drink beer at all.

Only if he is a true best friend, Xiao Qi will take into account the feelings of a good friend, and drink some wine with him. Although it is impossible to drink too much, this is already an obvious signal.

Since they are one of my husband's best friends, the two girls certainly hope to give him a good impression, so that they can add more points to Xiao Qi's life circle in the future.

Since Li Shaozhi had ordered the dishes in advance, as soon as they came, the boss immediately started cooking the dishes for their table. In less than ten minutes, three or five small dishes and two or three steamed and stir-fried dishes were served on the table first. .

"Eastern Cantonese cuisine is mostly bland and steamed, which is simpler than our stir-fry and bean paste seasoning, but the real ingredients are ready, the skill is ready, and the taste is still very good." Xiao Qi raised his chopsticks, " start!"

"it is good!"

Yang Xue wasn't too polite, he had been busy all morning, he was indeed hungry, and started snoring.

While eating, he said, "I like the stewed vegetables and morning tea the most in Cantonese cuisine. I like the seafood from Qindao. It's strong enough and hot enough."

"Actually, Hong Kong seafood also has this kind of taste. Ah Xue, if you are free at night, we will eat together!" Feng Kexin laughed softly.

"I don't need it at night. I still have to invite those old experts and bodyguards to dinner. I promised them to eat at Fulinmen... It's also thanks to Archie, otherwise I wouldn't want to go to Fulinmen!" Yang Yang Xue laughed and said, "We made reservations in Guangdong East two days in advance, and the three tables totaled 270,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is really expensive."

Fook Lam Moon is a very well-known authentic time-honored restaurant in Hong Kong.

Ordinarily, Liu Datou likes to eat there the most, and there are countless other top rich people who often visit, which shows that its cooking is authentic.

If it is famous and delicious, it is naturally expensive, and ordinary people are naturally reluctant to eat it.

Yang Xue just rewarded the bodyguards who guarded him all the way, and the experts and teachers who followed the appraisal all the way, so he was willing to spend a lot of money.

As for food and accommodation on weekdays, it is the best, and there is a real need - you buy things worth hundreds of thousands or millions. If you live in an ordinary hotel and eat street food, others can trust you ? There is even no guarantee for the safety of valuables!

A few people chatted and laughed, and the dishes were brought up continuously. The taste was just as the proprietress said, very authentic. The taste was a bit bland for Shuchuan people, but it was still very fresh and delicious.

Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi, who had lost their sunglasses and hats, had already been recognized by the surrounding diners, but perhaps because there were so many celebrities here, they were just pointing and talking, but few people came to bother them.

Xiao Qi's position was facing the ramp when they came over, and after he had just eaten a prawn, he suddenly found seven or eight sturdy men turning around from the other end of the ramp.

These people didn't hold any weapons in their hands, but with that fierce aura, one could tell that they were not ordinary people.

Originally, Xiao Qi didn't want to be troublesome, but Xiao Qi took a look and found that they were heading in his direction, and the bald man wearing earrings headed by him was always staring at Yang Xue, who was facing away from him. It's a little strange.

Yang Xue is wearing a red T-shirt and jeans today, it is difficult to admit his mistake.

Before Xiao Qi could speak, the bodyguards who had already had dinner over there became vigilant and stood directly in front of Xiao Qi's table.

In the blink of an eye, he saw a few men with the same tough aura blocking his sight. The bald man and his subordinates were taken aback for a moment, and then they showed a provocative look.

"Go away, Master Ming of Causeway Bay is on business, if you don't want to die, just get out of the way." The bald man walked up to the bodyguards and said with his hand on the chest of one bodyguard.

The bodyguard does not understand Cantonese, but the behavior of the bald man shows that he is not kind.

Opening the bald man's hand at once, the bodyguard said in a deep mandarin voice, "Get lost!"

He himself is an elite member of the military. This bald man looks like he can scare people, but the bodyguards can kill him in five different ways within three seconds. The two realms are not the same at all. grade.

"Hahaha..." Ming Ye looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, laughing so hard that tears came out, he turned his head and said to his subordinates: "This servant boy from mainland China told me to get lost? Do you think he is an idiot?"

"That's right! When mainlanders come to Hong Kong, they must teach the rules of Hong Kong. If you don't want to lose your arms and legs, kneel down to our Lord Ming!"

"Kneel down and admit your mistake!"

Several subordinates shouted one after another, and two impulsive ones came out to play with pocket knives.

The customers who were eating here looked at this side one after another, and the timid ones had already hid aside.

When encountering this kind of thing, the proprietresses and proprietresses of several stalls had no choice but to do their own thing, as if they didn't see it.

"Hurry up and deal with them, don't bother Qi Shao them." Seeing how noisy they were, a bodyguard next to him whispered in his native dialect.

The bodyguard who spoke earlier nodded and lifted his suit.

Master Ming, who was laughing, saw the thing under his armpit, his eyes widened, and the laughter stopped abruptly. (To be continued..)
