Chapter 599
"Miss Wang, Mr. Su, Miss Dong, please come in quickly." Seeing Wang Siya coming in, several middle-aged men and women rushed to greet them. They were the children of the old man who contracted the land. They seemed to know Wang Siya's identity and seemed very polite. .
"Miss Wang, Miss Dong, and Mr. Su, it's a pleasure to meet you." Others who came to participate in the bidding meeting were also quite polite. Business is business, no matter if you can grab it or not, you can't offend the royal family of the capital. Some of them are already pondering, if the land can be taken down, whether to resell it to the Wang family as a favor. They don't mind being busy for nothing, as long as Wang Yan is really willing to accept this favor. Of course, there are also some who really want to grab this land. After all, even if the royal family in the capital has a lot of money, it is impossible to bully the market for this kind of thing.
"Miss Wang, welcome." Even the white-haired old man sitting and drinking tea was quite polite. He was the contractor of this land - Lu Xueliang. Seeing his attitude towards Wang Siya, everyone We all know that Wang Siya may have taken the lead.
"Don't be polite, everyone, please take a seat soon." Lu Xueliang's sons and daughters greeted, pouring tea for everyone, and hospitality. They have a different mind from Lu Xueliang and want to turn the land quickly so that they don't have to worry about this land. Lu Xueliang can also follow them to live in the city with peace of mind. The old man is getting old. They are not at ease living here alone, but they are also unwilling to live here with them.
"Master Lu, I heard that you like to collect walnuts for literature and play?" A thin middle-aged man said. During the many competitions in the field, his ears perked up. In addition to his love of Go, Lu Xueliang also likes to collect walnuts for literature and play. This is no secret, they all know it.
"That's right." Lu Xueliang nodded.
"I don't know what type the old man likes, tiger head, lion head, official hat, chicken heart?" The thin middle-aged smiled.
"Hehe, there are all kinds of collections, and I like them all." When Lu Xueliang talked about his interests, he suddenly smiled.
"Some time ago, I happened to get an official hat. I don't know how to appreciate it, so I gave it to the old man. You can see if you like it." The thin middle-aged man said, took out a box and handed it to Lu Xueliang.
"Oh?" Lu Xueliang was not polite and opened it directly. Inside the box was a walnut. Steady and solemn, the bulge is dotted, with wide and straight edges, blunt and rounded. The shape is beautiful, much like the hat of Qing Dynasty officials. It is worth mentioning that this kind of walnut was particularly sought after by the royal family of the Qing Dynasty.
"Not bad." Lu Xueliang nodded in admiration, obviously he liked it, and the thin middle-aged man was proud of himself. The gift was indeed the right one.
"Mr. Lu, it just so happened that I also prepared a walnut for literary play. You can see if you like it." At this moment, the long-faced young man sitting next to Wang Yan spoke up and handed a box to Lu Xueliang. Before that, he looked at Su Jing with hostile eyes for a long time.
Lu Xueliang was still polite, took the box and opened it. Inside was a large walnut, with a stable appearance, a convex belly and a flat bottom, a thick edge and a blunt tip, and a large concave bottom. From the side, it looks like a horseshoe.
Seeing this walnut, Lu Xueliang's eyes suddenly lit up and burst into a ray of light, while the thin middle-aged and other competitors' faces changed slightly. Anyone who knows it knows that this walnut is an authentic horseshoe lion head. Although this is not the rarest variety of lion heads, it is too big.
As one of the four famous walnuts, the lion head walnut is a treasured series of Wenwan walnuts. The reason why it is named after the "lion head" is that when it is turned upside down, the shape is very similar to the mane of the stone lion in front of the old yamen.
Lion head walnut has a long history and was enthusiastically sought after by princes and nobles in ancient times. Now it is a very common category in literary play. In history, some literati described the lion's head in this way: "Wen run like a gentleman, honest like a wise man, short and dwarf, get rid of dust is like a child".
There are also various types of lion heads. Horseshoe lion head is one of them. Generally, the side width exceeds 4 cm, which is more worthy of collection. The side width reaches 4.5 cm, which is very rare. Now this one is estimated to be 4.5 cm. .
"What do you think, old man?" The long-faced young man caught Lu Xueliang's eyes with a hint of pride on his face.
"Haha, very good, young man, you have your heart." Lu Xueliang didn't hide his love at all, but the thin middle-aged was a little depressed. This time, the official hat he sent out was compared, and the other competitors were also depressed. , Some of them also prepared walnuts, but they are far worse than this lion head, and now they can't make it.
"Yan'er, I said that Mr. Lu would like it." The long-faced young man whispered something proudly to Wang Yan next to him, but Wang Yan did not hear the same thing, her face was calm, and she slowly drank tea. The reaction made the long-faced youth feel very unfulfilled.
The long-faced young man still had a smile on his face, thinking to himself, "Wang Yan came to meet me just to deal with my parents, but she didn't even look at me, I guess she thought I was a rich second-generation lazy and incompetent. However, if I If she can compare Su Jing, she should be impressed. This piece of land is really good and worth winning. While defeating the opponent, you can also develop the industry, why not do it?"
What the long-faced young man didn't know was that his eyes just fell into Wang Yan's eyes. Wang Yan had already guessed that it was not a coincidence that he met Su Jing this time, but the long-faced young man did it on purpose, which made her A tinge of resentment rose in my heart.
This time, the family did not force her to marry someone else. Although the blind date was arranged by her parents, it was not forced whether it would be successful or not. Wang Yan also went on a blind date with a normal mentality to see if the long-faced young man was worth dating. In many respects, the long-faced young man was still excellent, but he didn't feel like love at first sight, so she planned to observe it slowly and acted relatively indifferent. Unexpectedly, the long-faced young man arranged such a chance encounter with Su Jing, which disappointed her.
However, she didn't say anything, maybe she wanted to see if this long-faced young man could win over Su Jing. For some reason, she really wanted to see Su Jing deflated once, even once.
"A Jing, have you prepared walnuts? I prepared a walnut, but it can't compare to others." Dong Xun whispered.
"No." Su Jing shook his head.
"How can you not prepare, but I pin all my hopes on you." Dong Xun smiled.
"You didn't say that he likes walnuts, and besides, I don't know anything about walnuts, how can I play with walnuts?" Su Jing smiled and shook his head, but just after saying this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, "Wait, that's not right, I have walnuts."
"Really?" Dong Xun and Wang Siya's eyes lit up.
"Wait a minute, I'll go get it in the car." Su Jing ran into the car, but she was just pretending, the walnut was in the storage bag, and when she came back, there was a big walnut in her hand, Dong Xun and Wang Siya The first thought was whether they could pack it in a box like others, but after seeing the walnuts clearly, their eyes lit up, and Lu Xueliang suddenly stood up.
