    While Meng Zitao was explaining how to judge the authentic Yuhua Stone, he suddenly noticed a Yuhua Stone next to him.

    The main reason why this Yuhua Stone caught Meng Zitao's attention is because of its size. This Yuhua Stone is at least 15 centimeters in length and about 12 centimeters in height. Judging from its size, it is quite rare among Yuhua Stones.  .  At least Meng Zitao had never seen such a big Yuhua Stone before.

    In addition, this is also one of the few genuine rain flower stones among dozens of stones. In addition, the texture is very good and the color is quite bright, giving people the feeling of a landscape painting. It is no wonder that it attracted Meng Zitao's attention.  .

    So, after imparting some knowledge on identifying rain flower stones to Zhang Jingqiang, he walked over and took the rain flower stone into his hands.

    Meng Zitao was a little surprised when he saw this. He did not expect that the natural texture on this rain flower stone can really reflect the artistic conception of the landscape. It is a high-quality rain flower stone.

    Meng Zitao originally wanted to take a basin of water and put the Yuhua Stone in it to watch, but at this time, Zhang Jingqiang asked curiously: "Zitao, is this Yuhua Stone good?"

    "It's indeed interesting." Meng Zitao nodded.

    Zhang Wo¡¯s father quickly took over and said, ¡°Teacher Meng, since you like this piece of rain flower stone, I¡¯ll give it to you.¡±

    "You're welcome." Meng Zitao waved his hand: "I have no merit and no reward, so there is no need to give it to me. You should give me money."

    "This" Zhang Wo's parents looked at Zhang Jingqiang and wanted to ask him what his opinion was.

    Zhang Jingqiang originally wanted to persuade Meng Zitao to accept it, but when he was about to speak, an idea flashed through his mind and he said with a smile: "Zitao is a relatively upright person. Since he wants to pay, you should accept it."

    Zhang Wo¡¯s father said: ¡°But we don¡¯t know how much this thing is worth.¡±

    Meng Zitao said: "This Yuhua Stone is relatively large and rare on the market. How about 20,000 yuan?"

    "Twenty thousand?" Zhang Wo's parents were dumbfounded when they heard the price. Isn't it just a piece of broken stone? Can it be worth twenty thousand yuan?

    "This is the Yuhua Stone. It's normal for a good Yuhua Stone to be worth so much." Of course Zhang Jingqiang helped Meng Zitao speak, especially when he felt that he owed Meng Zitao something.

    With the help of Zhang Jingqiang, the couple accepted the 20,000 yuan in a daze. Looking at the money in their hands, they both felt as if they were in a dream.

    Except for this Yuhua Stone, there was nothing else in the room that Meng Zitao liked. However, just like before, he still chose two small fake porcelain pieces to use in class.

    Meng Zitao didn¡¯t want to have too many entanglements with Zhang Wo¡¯s family, so even though the few fakes he chose were worthless, he still paid for them and didn¡¯t accept the gifts.

    The matter was almost settled, and Meng Zitao was ready to leave. Since Zhang Wo's parents wanted to stay and sort out Zhang Wo's clothes, Meng Zitao and Zhang Jingqiang went downstairs together.

    Meng Zitao walked to his car. Just now he thought he wouldn't have anything good, so he didn't bring a bag. Zhang Jingqiang paid for it on his behalf.

    "Here's the money for you."

    "Hey, I'm not too embarrassed about what happened today. Just think of the Yuhua Stone as a gift from me. Don't refuse. It's boring."

    Meng Zitao and Zhang Jingqiang had nothing to be polite about, so they just smiled and took the money back.

    Zhang Jingqiang couldn't help but asked: "By the way, what about the Yuhua Stone?"

    Meng Zitao laughed: "You don't think I picked up a big leak, do you?"

    "Ah, you won't pay the market price directly, will you?"

    "It's about the same. If it works well when put in clean water, it's probably worth thirty or forty thousand. If it's outstanding, it might be even higher."

    Zhang Jingqiang, of course, knows the antique industry very well and knows that the price given by Meng Zitao is completely normal and even a little higher. He shook his head: "You are just too kind. In fact, there is no need."

    "This has nothing to do with kindness. I just don't want to cause trouble." Meng Zitao waved his hand and said, "Stop talking about this. I think you seem to have something on your mind. Have you encountered any trouble?"

    Zhang Jingqiang was slightly startled: "How did you tell?"

    "What kind of industry do I work in? If I didn't have the ability to detect people's faces, I would have been deceived into wearing my pants many years ago." Meng Zitao chuckled: "What is going on? Do you need my help?"

    Zhang Jingqiang rubbed his forehead: "The matter is a little troublesome, but I should be able to solve it. If it really can't be solved, I'll come back to you then."

      "You are quite free and easy."

    Shu Ze laughed and said, "To be honest, an uncle of mine from abroad likes Yuhua Stone very much. If he sees your Yuhua Stone, he probably won't transfer it to him, and you won't be able to live in peace."

    Meng Zitao joked: "Then before he returns to China, you tell me that I have to dig three feet into the ground to bury it."

    "Then you have to bribe me well."

    "No problem, just say whatever you want"

    They joked with each other for a while, and the waiter started to serve the food.

    Shu Ze said while eating: "What are you going to do with this Yuhua Stone?"

    ¡°Let¡¯s polish it first.¡±

    "Polishing? Some people may be taboo about this."

    Polishing means polishing rain flower stones manually or by machine to remove scratches or micropores.  Some collectors think this method is undesirable and they think it loses its natural state, so they oppose it.

    Meng Zitao shook his head: "I don't think so, because the polishing process does not change the original shape of the stone. Polishing is not carving, it just makes it more revealing of its original appearance, and this Yuhua Stone can only show its characteristics when it is put into water.  , you can¡¯t keep putting it in the water to appreciate it.¡±

    "You're right." Shu Ze nodded.

    Meng Zitao went on to say: "I will give it a rosewood stand later, and I will write a poem to go with it, and it will be complete now."

    Generally speaking, in addition to being placed on a shelf, you can also store the rain flower stone in a box and put it on the silk for appreciation. However, Meng Zitao feels that this cannot reflect the characteristics of the rain flower stone.

    Shu Ze thinks Meng Zitao is a good match and agrees very much.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The next day is the day of the treasure fight. This is an internal activity of the Ling City Antiques Association. Of course, this does not mean that outsiders cannot participate. If someone gets an invitation, they can also participate in the meeting, but they cannot participate in the treasure fight.

    Before nine o'clock, Meng Zitao took He Wanyi and Shu Ze to the Qingfeng Tea House, the venue for the treasure fighting party.

    Because of the trade fair two days ago, all the members of the association who were in other places also rushed back. Except for those who really didn¡¯t have time to go, Xi Zhengzhen was the only one who didn¡¯t come.

    Of course, this is also in line with the wishes of Meng Zitao and others. They are eager for Xi Zhengzhen to withdraw from the Antiques Association.

    As he walked, Meng Zitao greeted his acquaintances, chatted some gossip, and walked into the teahouse with everyone.

    Meng Zitao didn¡¯t know that after he walked into the teahouse, someone was talking about him in a car not far away.

    "That's Meng Zitao? Why is he so young?"

    "Despite his youth, this guy is very powerful. Not only does he have great eyesight, but he also has a lot of kung fu."

    "Tch, no matter how advanced your kung fu is, you are still afraid of kitchen knives. In this age, your kung fu can only be used to deal with gangsters. If you really encounter someone with a gun, you can only act like a loser."

    "Do you have a gun?"

    "Aren't you being arrogant? Forget it, let's not mention him. Today is not to deal with him. Are you ready over there?"

    "It's ready, but I think this kind of small move is really unnecessary. The result will be revealed in the end. Doesn't this expose things? What's the benefit to us?"

    Seeing the other party staring at him, the person who spoke felt a little scared: "Did I say something wrong?"

    "I think you've been taking it easy for too long, and you've become stupid. Do you think this arrangement is just a test? What a joke!"

    "That's why!"

    "You do your own thing and don't worry about so much!" The speaker grinned: "If you mess up, you also know the consequences."

    "Yes, yes, yes, don't worry, everything has been arranged and there will be no problem."

    After the conversation was divided into two parts, Meng Zitao took everyone upstairs to the arranged event venue, and gave a brief introduction to everyone and some people he was familiar with in the industry.

    Many people have actually seen or heard of Shu Ze, but they just don¡¯t have the opportunity to make friends with him, so since they have the opportunity today, they generally won¡¯t let it go.

    After some introductions and pleasantries, everyone was a little tired and found a seat to drink tea and eat cakes.

    After chatting for a while, Cheng Qiheng came over with Wang Mengsu.

    Meng Zitao asked while pouring tea for the two of them: "Where's Uncle Wang? He didn't come with you?"

    Wang Menghan replied: "My dad is downstairs, he will be up in a while." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
