Chapter 307 Distinguish between true and false

The west wind and north wind are raging, and the haze is relatively serious, which is not suitable for outdoor sports. Roberto did not go out to see the scenery and play, and spent most of the day teaching Oscar Chinese and explaining China. Ancient and modern culture.

Rao is Oscar’s quick mind. Because the Chinese language is broad and profound, an ordinary word can have N kinds of pronunciations and N kinds of meanings. The so-called drawing inferences from one case to another does not apply at all, and it is more difficult to learn. Good The results are quite good. As long as the conversation does not involve too profound conversations, I can basically understand the communication about life.

In the morning, Roberto gave Oscar a lesson first, then went to do indoor exercises, had lunch, and in the afternoon, rested in the guest room and watched the news. After finishing the noon news, he took a nap.

Oscar didn’t have to attend Chinese class at noon and was playing with his computer. Miro was also playing on the computer when he heard his phone ringing. He picked it up and saw a message. He couldn’t help but smile and closed it neatly. Computer, go back to the room and change clothes.

After tidying himself up, Milo told old housekeeper Enzo that his child was nearby. He would go take a walk with the child and he would call back if anything happened.

Old housekeeper Enzo nodded with a smile, meaning one thing: Go quickly, don’t keep the little girl waiting.

Oscar looked at Brother Milo pitifully: "Brother Milo, can you take me with you?"

"No, your Chinese is too poor, stay in the hotel Learn Chinese conscientiously, and when you can speak Chinese as fluently as English, you will have many opportunities to accompany the cute little girl for walks, meals, and trips."

"I..." Oscar curled his lips and waited for the Chinese to be spoken. How many years and months will it take to become as fluent as English?

Milo would not relent just because Oscar showed pitiful eyes, leaving the poor child who wanted to be a follower and leaving in a cool way.

Taking the elevator downstairs from the guest room and walking out of the hotel, the handsome young man ran straight across the street and looked around somewhere. He found his little friend under the eaves outside a store. The cute little kid Lele had a backpack hanging on one shoulder, carrying a foam box, and eating barbecue skewers.

The little Lolita wore a light purple coat, no scarf, and no dust mask. Her exposed face was pink and tender, with bright and black eyes, like an elf.

Finding the cute little loli, Milo's light blue eyes overflowed with a gentle smile, and he hurried over.

Le Yun stopped learning to swim in the middle after an unpleasant incident in the swimming pool. She went to the locker room to change clothes, retrieved her valuables and left. She walked to the place where handsome guy Milo lived and went shopping. .

She didn’t eat anything at noon, so she bought some kebabs on the way to fill her stomach. Just halfway through eating, she saw handsome guy Milo running over, smiling and waving his little arms: “Handsome Milo, I’m here thisinside! You are handsome again. ”

The handsome guy is slender and tall, with fair complexion and a handsome face. He has black hair and blue eyes. He wears a sapphire blue knee-length windbreaker and a white scarf. He is elegant and noble, mysterious and cold, and is better than a star. There is also style.

The smile in Milo's blue eyes couldn't be contained, and it overflowed all over his face. He quickly ran to the pink and cute little girl and took off the white scarf around his neck. Tie it around the little guy’s neck: “If you don’t wear a scarf when you go out on such a cold day, you won’t be afraid of frostbite. "

"I don't feel cold. "Le Yun was extremely sad. Why did everyone always say she was underdressed when they first saw her? She didn't feel cold, so she didn't want to wrap herself up like a cotton baby.

Milo Involuntarily, he wrapped the scarf around to cover the little Lolita's white and tender neck. He also used the excuse of helping her to style her hair, touched her little head, and raised the corners of her mouth happily: "You should wear more clothes even if you don't feel cold." , defense is the most important. "

Okay, Le Yun accepted the lecture resignedly and raised the skewers higher: "Miro, would you like two skewers? A handsome guy who doesn't like to eat skewers is not a good man. ”

　“Of course. Milo was in a high mood. He took a bunch of spicy skewers and took one bite. He talked while eating: "Lele, when did you come? Have you had lunch?" ”

He didn’t help the little guy carry a backpack. Xiao Lele said that her backpack was as important as the small bags carried by beauties. It contained her personal belongings and some essential gadgets for medical students.< br />
“I came to the central area at the invitation of a friend to do some business. After I finished my work, my friend had something to do, so I played by myself. I went to a swimming pool for a while and missed lunch time, so I decided to have snacks as my main meal. "

"Bear child, how can you not eat a regular meal when you are growing? We went to eat. I knew there was a small restaurant nearby that tasted very good. ”

Milo shook his head. Little Lele was already short. If he always skipped three meals, his nutrition would not keep up, so how could he grow taller?

Leyun didn’t. She was hungry and would rather eat all kinds of snacks than go to eat. As a result, well, the handsome guy Milo said, "You won't grow taller if you don't eat." It penetrated into her heart every minute and she went to eat unwillingly.
< br />The handsome boy chose a small restaurant with a northern local flavor. There were few people in the afternoon, it was relatively quiet, and the food was served quickly.

Milo, who successfully brought the little Lolita into the restaurant for dinner, Don't be too proud, Xiao Lele's Achilles' heel is his height, and he'll be right when he pokes him. It feels good to poke someone's Achilles' heel.

He had lunch to avoid Xiao Leleluo's Li was embarrassed, so he ate with her, but Leyun was not polite, so she just chopped quickly and finished half of the vegetables by herself. She had some snacks left in her stomach, so she didn't stuff her stomach crazily.

Coax the little loli kidsIt was time to eat, and Milo didn't have any objections to the rest. The two of them walked around to eat. After walking, the handsome guy sneaked into a large shopping mall and brought back a lot of snacks, plus a plush, chubby long ear. Rascal Rabbit Toy.

"Aw, Milo, I am not a three-year-old child anymore." Le Yun held a snow-white long-eared rabbit with a three-petal smile on its arms and a carrot. I really want to go to the ground and protest, why does Milo always buy stuffed toys for her? She is not a little princess who loves to cry and can be coaxed with toys to make her happy. She is a tomboy who only likes to shake her fists, and cute plush toys do not match her.

"Well, I know that little Lele is not three years old, but thirteen years old and one year older. What does it matter? Little Lele can just hold the toy as a hand warmer."

Looking at the cute little elf-like Loli holding a big rabbit, Milo smiled warmly. Little Lele looked the most beautiful and adorable holding a toy. Let her do it. Advertising models selling toys can inspire everyone's princess dream and fall in love with plush toys.

Le Yun’s protest was ineffective and she could only hug a big rabbit as a hand warmer. For this reason, she didn’t talk to the handsome Milo for about five minutes and just ate snacks.

Little Lele showed a childish look, and Milo smiled brightly. He handed the delicious food to her and asked her to take snacks to calm down. He felt that the little Loli must be in trouble when she bit the food hard. Zuo was biting him to vent his anger.

When the two of them were having a great time shopping, Roberto woke up from a nap in the hotel. Oscar immediately complained: "Father, brother Milo forgot his friends when he saw sex and abandoned his wife and son. Next time we happily went to play with his friends, he was so arrogant that he didn’t want us."

Roberto stroked his forehead: "Oscar, your idioms about forgetting friends after seeing sex, abandoning wife and children, being ungrateful are useless. If you are in the right place, look up the dictionary yourself and see the explanation. Enzo, have Milo's children been here?"

"I obviously used it correctly." Oscar wanted to cry, but he clearly knew The expression is perfect.

Old housekeeper Enzo could hardly hold back his laughter and reported to the old gentleman: "Sir, Master Milo's friend did not come to the hotel. Master Milo received a message saying that the Oriental girl is nearby. He went for a walk with his friends, and he called back not long ago to say that he would come back with the children to have dinner with his husband in the evening."

"Really?" Roberto was extremely happy, always serious A cheerful smile appeared on his face: "Enzo, inform the hotel steward to send the menu. Let's study the dinner dishes carefully. We can't be rude to the beautiful and lovely oriental girl."

"Yes, sir. , I will inform the hotel’s personal butler right away.” Enzo happily agreed and immediately called the hotel’s dedicated butler who arranged the VIP room.

The hotel’s personal butler received a call and at the guest’s request,I quickly took the menu to the VIP room and accompanied the guests to choose the dishes. Some dishes, such as the Manchu-Han banquet, required reservation in advance and were not available at the time. Therefore, the dishes needed to be discussed for the temporary banquet.

Oscar also joined in to contribute his opinion. The four of them chose from thousands of choices and worked for more than an hour before deciding on the menu. The hotel’s personal butler took the order and arranged the private rooms.

Le Yun didn’t know that accepting the invitation from the handsome guy Milo to have dinner together made Roberto prepare in advance in a big way. She and the handsome guy walked around a few times and went to Panjiayuan to play.

It’s too cold, so there aren’t as many vendors setting up stalls in Panjiayuan as there are in autumn. Since it’s the weekend, it’s not deserted either.

This time, Le Yun simply wanted to gain experience, not just look for something with aura, so she did not go to the greenhouse stalls, but went to shops that specialize in antiques and old furniture stores.

Milo didn’t want to buy anything. He just wanted to go shopping with his little friend, who was very interested in old furniture. He visited one house after another and was very interested.

The little Loli didn’t buy anything, she just admired it. Even if she had something she liked, she couldn’t move it. They were all sets of large furniture such as tables, chairs or chaise longues.

After visiting more than a dozen old furniture stores, I felt tired and turned to the antique store area.

After visiting several stores, Le Yun walked into an antique shop. She looked around and found an interesting thing - a jade Buddha sitting on a lotus platform.

The white jade Buddha sitting on the lotus platform is the Tathagata Buddha weighing flowers and smiling. It is only ten centimeters tall. The lotus platform is about the size of a palm. It is exquisitely shaped and lifelike. It is priced at 12.99 million.

The person who looks after the store is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He wears a Tang suit jacket, which is very consistent with the image of an old antique store. He is always polite to customers, and he is also very polite to the arrival of a foreign friend. No surprise.

When the petite girl asked to have a look at the Jade Buddha, he looked at her twice, put on his gloves, carefully opened the glass cabinet, took out the Jade Buddha, and placed it on the special floor covered with red velvet. Place the countertop for guests to appreciate the antiques firmly, take a step back, and ask the guests to appreciate it.

One of the rules of antique shops is that you cannot pick up antiques with your hands. In that case, if one party misses, the person responsible cannot be identified.

After the waiter stepped away a little, Leyun held up the Jade Buddha and picked up a small flashlight to look at it. She looked at it from the top of the Jade Buddha's head to the lotus platform, back and forth, and turned it over to look at the base of the lotus platform.

After reading it several times, Le Yun smiled: "This is not true, it is worth thirty thousand at most."

"Little girl, this is a mutton-fat jade Buddha. After professional appraisal." The waiter did not directly say that the young guest was talking nonsense, but seriously explained the facts.

Milo stoodWhen the little loli kid is around, he always means the same thing, no matter what she says, he will believe it.

"My words may be hard to accept, but facts are facts. What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true," Le Yun looked at the curtain behind the shop calmly and said calmly. Express your own point of view: "When the sample was extracted for professional appraisal, a little bit of jade powder was scraped off the base and tested, right? If you are not sure, you can ask your boss. I think he should know the appraisal process very well."

The young guest spoke eloquently, and the waiter looked at the young guest strangely. How did she know that the boss was in the store? The corner of his eyes slanted towards the door curtain leading to the inner room, hesitating and uncertain. Just as he hesitated, the bead-woven door curtain was lifted, and with a clanking sound of crisp handicrafts, an old man in a blue Tang suit, about sixty years old, lifted the curtain. And out.

The waiter hurriedly ran over to greet him. The old man waved his hand and walked towards the counter. The slight tapping sound of his leather shoes on the floor was slow and rhythmic.

Walking to the counter, Ji Lao looked at the two customers again. Just now he only saw the general outline. When he took a closer look, one was a foreigner and the other was an Oriental. The girl with an Oriental face was as white and tender as jade. , the skin is smoother than mutton fat jade.

The little girl was holding a stuffed animal, and her appearance was very inconsistent with the confidence with which she spoke.

"Little girl, this Jade Buddha just came back from the appraisal center yesterday. You said it is not authentic. Do you have any evidence?"

The old man's voice was light and full of emotion. There is a touch of coercion, which is the majesty and authority of a highly respected person in the industry, developed through years of immersion in the antique world.

“This jade Buddha, starting from this position, the thin layer on the bottom is made of real suet jade, and the top is connected to it.” Le Yun said confidently, turning over the bottom. He came over and pointed it out to the old man, and scratched a certain spot: "The material for carving the Jade Buddha is not jade. The surface is covered with a layer of gum resin mixed with jade powder. To verify whether it is genuine, wash it with some kind of water." Just know.”

In Jingde’s more than ten years of working in the industry, this is the first time I heard someone say that gum resin is used to fake mutton-fat jade. Her calm face almost broke the news, but the little girl’s nonsense is not afraid of breaking the news. ?

"Little girl, you will have to bear the consequences for speaking nonsense." Mr. Ji's eyes were deep and sharp. The little girl's eyes were watery and lively. A person with such eyes is not like this. The master of nonsense, but he looks too young and lacks a convincing first impression.

"If I tell the truth and cannot verify the authenticity, I will buy it and publicly apologize to your store. If I verify that it is fake, the old gentleman only needs to sell it to me. What's the price? I only offer ten thousand."

"Okay, I'll just take your word for it, and you two can follow me to the back." Mr. Ji was silent for about ten seconds, and he made up his mind to offer his support. Pick up the jade Buddha that the little girl put down after admiring it, and invite the guests into the non-storeAn important place that members cannot enter.

Ying De was shocked, the boss actually believed it?

Le Yun didn't feel timid at all, and walked into the passage that led to the inside with her head held high. Milo's face remained unchanged, and he calmly followed the footsteps of the little Lolita.

There is a small storage room behind the door curtain, and there is a staircase leading to the second floor. Ji Lao led the two guests up the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor is as wide as the store on the first floor. The huge place is filled with various shelves, storing all kinds of antiques, including pottery, jade, and bronze objects.

A small office was separated by glass on one side of the wall, with a set of tables and chairs in the middle of the hall, a set of Eight Immortals tables for office use, and a cabinet filled with various identification tools. .

Ji Lao led the two guests into the studio and sat down. He took an empty box of the Jade Buddha and put it on the table, and poured a glass of boiled water for the two guests.

Milo helped the little Lolita hold the big rabbit. His gentlemanly demeanor and noble spirit oozed from his bones. Even if he drinks a glass of boiled water, he is still so elegant, which is better than drinking jade paste and jade liquid. He also needs to be elegant, and his every move is aristocratic.

Le Yun was not a nobleman, nor was she a country bumpkin who had never seen the world. She did not drink boiled water. She put the bag on her shoulder on her lap, took out a pack of pills, a pack of medicinal materials, and took out a pack of pills. Take a pill and a handful of medicinal materials and soak them in your drinking cup.

The little girl opened the package to take the medicine, and a scent of fragrance wafted out, making Milo's blue eyes shine. It smelled so good! Can it be eaten?

The aroma was elegant, and Ji Lao's eyes changed slightly. The pills in the little girl's hands didn't look like ordinary things.

After sealing the package, Le Yun moved the water cup in front of the shop owner: "Old sir, please put these two things in the electric kettle and boil them for a while, and then soak the Jade Buddha in the water. An unexpected picture appears. These medicines are non-toxic. They can even be said to be good detoxification medicines. They will not cause damage to jade, copper and iron. If you don’t worry, you can try something after boiling the water. "

Ji Lao nodded, picked up the cup and walked aside, pouring the water and medicine into the electric kettle for making tea, then took it to the water dispenser to add water, and put it on the base to turn on the electricity to boil the water.

The little girl’s water cup could no longer be filled with medicine, so he poured a new cup of boiled water for the little guest and waited patiently.

Le Yun was not at all nervous. She took her hand warmer, the big-eared rogue rabbit, from the handsome guy's arms. She drank a few sips of boiled water and smiled while waiting for the water in the electric kettle to boil.

When the electric kettle is heating, the pills slowly melt, and the aroma is elegant and becomes more and more fragrant. The smell is refreshing and refreshing, as if you have just taken a bath and your whole body is clear. .

When the water boils, the fragrance fills the first floor.

Mr. Ji's surprise intensified, but he remained calm. After a while, when he heard the little girl say "Okay," he went to unplug the power supply and poured water into a pot. In a bowl filled only with tea, place a heat-insulating mat on the Eight Immortals table and place the bowl head on the table.

In order to test whether the potion is really harmless to antiques, he picked up a piece of jade of low purity and put it into the bowl. The jade had no reaction. He took it out with tweezers and observed it. There was no reaction under a magnifying glass. crack.

After the preliminary test, Mr. Ji took out the Jade Buddha and slowly put it into the potion. He stood at the table and observed. The Jade Buddha sank into the potion and was okay at first. After about an hour, Minutes later, the water seeped into the mutton-fat white meat of the Jade Buddha, and strings of white bubbles emerged. The number of bubbles increased, and the water surface seemed to be boiling, making a thin gurgling sound.

Mr. Ji’s complexion became increasingly gloomy, his eyebrows tightened, and the jade Buddha was bubbling, which meant there was something wrong!
