    Wang Zhixuan said: "This competition will be held in about half a month. Will you be able to make it in time?"

    Meng Zitao was a little confused: "Why are the schedule so tight?"

    Wang Zhixuan said: "It's not like you don't know Gao Kuiquan. He is an old fox. He proposed to hold this event. He will definitely prepare it first. It is likely that he has already been selected within their antique association and will give less to other associations.  The preparation time can give you a small advantage.¡±

    Meng Zitao smiled: "Actually, this is normal. They definitely want to keep the championship in their own territory, but there is no difference between half a month and two months. After all, it is impossible for our industry to win within two months."  It just improved by leaps and bounds.¡±

    "Yes." Wang Zhixuan nodded, and then asked: "Is it convenient for you to go in half a month? If it is not convenient, I will arrange for someone else to go."

    Meng Zitao thought for a while: "There should be enough time, but let's arrange a substitute. I will contact you in advance."

    "OK¡­¡­"

    After separating from Wang Zhixuan, Meng Zitao came to his store.

    At this time, Zhu Xinyue was the only one in the antique shop. Zhu Xinyue told him that Hu Yuanliang had gone to the museum to help, and he wanted to call Hu Yuanliang to come back.

    Meng Zitao waved his hand and said no, then asked Zhu Xinyue what happened during this period and whether he was ready to take over the antique store.

    Zhu Xinyue told Meng Zitao what he had gained during this period, and Meng Zitao was quite satisfied after hearing it.

    At the end of Zhu Xinyue's words, he said with a shy expression: "Boss, I feel that I am still too young, and I am not as good as you. I feel that it is not appropriate to manage a store by myself."

    Meng Zitao asked with a smile: "If I still let you manage this antique store, what are your requirements?"

    Zhu Xinyue said: "If there is a master chef or an elder like Shopkeeper Hu to help me check it, it will be fine."

    Meng Zitao thought for a while, considering that he was planning to turn the antique shop into a private club, Master Palm Eyes was also needed. However, this matter was not something that could be done easily. For such an important position as Master Palm Eyes, he would definitely rather lack it than waste it.  .

    Meng Zitao reassured Zhu Xinyue that he would handle everything well.  Then, he took stock of the goods in the store and found that there was not much shortage of medium and low-quality items, but the number of high-quality items was somewhat small.

    There is nothing we can do about this. Who said the price is here? If it is not rare, how can it be valuable?

    But you can¡¯t live without high-quality antiques, otherwise the store¡¯s business will be poor and its reputation will be affected.  It would be a joke if word got out that a customer came to the store full of expectations, only to find that there was nothing good in the store.

    Therefore, it is not easy to open an antique store. Without Sansansan, it will definitely not be open for a long time.

    Getting back to the topic, Meng Zitao thought about what he had to do and went downstairs.

    ¡°Teacher Meng, I¡¯m going to trouble you again today.¡±

    As soon as Meng Zitao appeared in the shop on the first floor, he saw an old man in his fifties or sixties smiling and waving his hand to Meng Zitao.

    Meng Zitao greeted the old man and said with a smile: "Mr. Su, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

    The old man¡¯s name was Su Xingshun. He was the one who, as Meng Zitao said before, had given things to his son and came to settle the accounts with Meng Zitao.  Since that time, he might have come to the store every once in a while because he felt embarrassed.

    Su Xingshun sighed, with a slightly sad look on his face: "I am not that unscrupulous person, but I got into trouble again this time. I can only sell a few collections for emergency use."

    Meng Zitao knew Su Xingshun's son very well. This guy was just a bastard. He just messed around all day long and didn't work. He only knew how to feed his old age. Su Xingshun and his wife couldn't do anything about him, and they were so angry that they wanted to break up.  We have a father-son relationship, but considering that we only have one son, we really can't bear to part with him.

    "What happened to him?"

    "He went to borrow money from a loan shark."

    Meng Zitao shook his head secretly, loan sharking is not so easy to borrow, it is completely a bottomless pit.

    "Mr. Su, I don't think it's a problem for you to continue like this. You'd better think of a way as soon as possible."

    "Hey, maybe we owed him money in our previous life, but we have agreed that after paying back the money this time, we will ignore him and let him fend for himself."

    Su Xingshun's face was filled with helplessness. He was silent for a moment and said, "I won't mention this anymore. Please help me take a look at these things."

    "OK."

      After a while, except for a painting and calligraphy work, Meng Zitao made an appraisal on all the other things Su Xingshun brought.

    When I opened the scroll, I saw a piece of cursive calligraphy, signed Bada Shanren.  Needless to say about this famous artist, if this work is authentic, it must be worth at least tens of millions.

    Meng Zitao¡¯s calligraphy skills needless to say. After a quick glance, he had an idea. He said, ¡°Mr. Su, do you know the meaning of this cursive work?¡±

    Su Xingshun nodded and said: "I know, this is to praise the Flower God Cup."

    Meng Zitao said: "Then you should know that this is not an authentic work, right?"

    The reason is very simple. When Bada Shanren died, Emperor Kangxi had not yet passed away, and as a Bada Shanren, it was impossible to write a poem praising the Flower God Cup. This is contrary to common sense.

    Su Xingshun expressed his knowledge: "Although this work is not authentic, I think it should be a masterpiece by a famous artist."

    "There is no doubt that this person has a very high level of calligraphy, but it's hard to say if he is not a famous calligrapher."

    Meng Zitao explained: "The reason why I say this is because of the paper problem. I wonder if you have noticed that this paper is actually the Red Star paper from the 1980s."

    Su Xingshun was startled when he heard the words, and hurriedly came forward to check, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, I saw it wrong, let's forget about this calligraphy."

    Meng Zitao smiled: "The author's skills are still very good, and his works are still of some value. But it stands to reason that with his calligraphy skills, in today's era, there is no need to make fakes to make a living."

    Su Xing asked hurriedly: "You mean, this work was painted in recent years?"

    "Yes, so I want to ask you about the seller's situation. If possible, I would like to communicate with the author."

    Meng Zitao sincerely feels that the author¡¯s calligraphy is very good. If he wants to improve his calligraphy at his current level, in addition to regular practice, communication is also very important.

    In addition, this work praises the Flower God Cup. Meng Zitao doubts whether the author has a Flower God Cup in his hand. If so, he hopes to buy it and try to collect a complete set as soon as possible.

    "Okay, let me ask you now." Su Xingshun said.

    "Don't worry, let's take care of your affairs first."

    Meng Zitao totaled up the prices of the things Su Xingshun brought and gave him a preferential price. In business, it was impossible for him to make no profit at all, but he just said it was better than elsewhere.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
