Siheyuan: I am Liu Guangqi

"This man is old, and he is afraid of the cold."

"Don't, don't, it's cold outside after standing outside for a long time, let's put the curtain on first."

Seeing that the old man is so enthusiastic, how could Liu Guangqi have the nerve to let him suffer from the cold because of such a trivial matter, he can't afford to pay for it if he really freezes to death.

"Just now you said that you want to rent a house, so what's wrong with your current house? Is the landlord not renting it?"

The old man poured Liu Guangqi a cup of tea and asked.

"No, I've bought a house now. I came here this time to find a house for my elder brother. My elder brother used to live in the house of my father's steel factory. I asked him to live in it first. , but now the rolling mill is recruiting too many people, and the house will soon be insufficient. Two days ago, my elder brother was notified to vacate the house. Now the house in the city is tight, so I wanted to help find it outside. "

These words are not Liu Guangqi’s nonsense, but the real truth. With the arrival of industrial equipment aided by the Soviet Union one after another, the staff size of Hongxing Iron and Steel Works has also expanded like a balloon. Leaving aside other factories, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai’s No. 2000 Steel Rolling Plant had about 3000 people before the National Day, and now it has expanded to 1000.This branch alone has expanded its recruitment by [-] people, not to mention other branches.

If the No. 5000 Iron-making Plant, the No. [-] Steel-making Plant, and this key plant are added, the number of recruits in the entire Hongxing Iron and Steel Plant can reach [-], which is still a sub-factory of the Hongxing Iron and Steel Plant.

If you look at the entire old BJ, there are tens of thousands of newly recruited workers from all walks of life. With so many people rushing into the city at once, can the housing not be tight?

After receiving this notice, Liu Guangxiao immediately became an ant on a hot pot, and started looking for a house just after the Chinese New Year.Even Lao Liu has been going around helping his nephew to inquire about the house these two days.

As for why Liu Guangqi didn't allow Liu Guangxiao's family to live in even though he had a house, and he just watched Liu Guangxiao look for a house.Knowing what the other party understands, it is easy to ask God to send God away, and it may only take Liu Guangqi's words to let Liu Guangxiao's family live in, but it will not be a matter of one word to let them move out in the future.Liu Guangqi didn't want to cause trouble for himself in the future, so he simply ignored Lao Liu's eyes.

Moreover, Liu Guangqi didn't want so many people living in the courtyard. The more people lived, the harder it was for him to keep his secrets with Baimei. At present, the only relationship between them is Liu Ma and Qin Huairu. Know the specific situation of the two.

Chapter 148 Empress Dowager Treasure 3

"That's right. There are a few houses in our area that are empty. If you want to see them, I'll show you around now. As long as your elder brother doesn't think we're outside the city."

After hearing this, the old man nodded and said enthusiastically.

"Don't dislike it, what is this outside of the city? It's just separated from old BJ by a city wall. Maybe one day the city wall will be demolished, and then your place will be no different from the city."

In fact, since last year, the old BJ has demolished the city walls one after another, but the demolition has not yet reached the Deshengmen side.

"Then let me borrow your good words, let's go now."

Said that the old man was about to get up and take Liu Guangqi out to find a house. Seeing this, Liu Guangqi hurriedly stopped the vigorous old man.

"Wait, don't worry, you'd better warm up your body before talking, and you will have some problems after this cold and hot."

"Okay then, just sit down for a while. I just have one more thing I want you to show me. If you can accept it, you can do me a favor and collect it."

"Success, you just take it, as long as I can offer the starting price, I will definitely accept it."

This is really a surprise, originally I came here to find treasures, but I didn't expect to find two treasures, just like the two incense burners, the things from the old man's house are not bad, especially Liu Guangqi also noticed that the old man's house The chair and table are actually red sandalwood, which shows that the old man's family background is not simple.

"Please wait"

After finishing speaking, the old man walked into the back room, and the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets was heard in the room immediately after.

Taking advantage of the time when the old man was carrying things, Liu Guangqi stood up, and then the light outside looked at the furnishings in the room. In addition to the table and chairs that Liu Guangqi had seen before, there was also a bar with a pair of hats on it. Buckets, one with a feather duster, and the other with a dried plum blossom.

On the wall facing the gate is a portrait of the most popular great man of this era, and on the wall next to it are several landscape paintings, but these paintings are somewhat different from traditional landscape paintings. It is light and clear, paying attention to white space, giving people a sense of distant artistic conception, but these paintings are very willing to use ink, which looks dark from a distance.

With the light coming through the window, Liu Guangqi stuck to one of them and looked at it carefully. It didn't matter, Liu Guangqi's jaw almost dropped, and the painting in front of him was Huang Binhong's painting.

Some people may be a little unfamiliar with Huang Binhong, but this does not affect the other party's achievements. This master is as famous as Qi Baishi, and he is known as Huang Binhong in the South and Qi in the North.It’s useless to say these things. When it matters, this master’s paintings will be very valuable in later generations. The most expensive painting was actually bought for [-] million. Liu Guangqi only knew how awesome this master is because of this news.

Thinking that the painting style of the paintings next to him seemed to be the same as this painting, Liu Guangqi quickly looked at those paintings one by one.Sure enough, as Liu Guangqi expected, all of them are Master Huang's works.

"My one, this is more than one billion."

Looking at the paintings in front of him, Liu Guangqi couldn't help swallowing.However, Liu Guangqi quickly recovered his mentality, although these paintings will be very valuable after 60 years.But now, this painting is only the price of two catties of meat, which is much cheaper.

Moreover, Master Huang is still alive. If I want, I can buy several paintings from Master Huang later. As long as the money is in place, Master Huang can paint several paintings for Liu Guangqi. Now Master Huang is at his peak.

"That's it. I will invite Master Huang to paint when I go back. I invite a few large ones to hang in the study, and Master Qi also invites a few."

While these masters of traditional Chinese painting were still alive, Liu Guangqi decided to make a good purchase. It doesn't matter if you run out of money, just ask Baimei for it.Liu Guangqi couldn't help snickering when he thought about the expressions of others when they saw the famous paintings of masters in his room decades later.

"Little Doctor Liu, let's see how much these things are worth."

Just as Liu Guangqi was thinking, the old man came out of the back room with a few things in his arms.

"Old man, why did you take out this thing, it should be your favorite thing."

Among the pile of things, Liu Guangqi saw the purple clay pot in the old man's hand at a glance.This purple clay teapot has a square shape, smooth lines, fine workmanship, and a sense of atmosphere, and judging from the patina on it, it should be an object that is kept at hand all year round.

"Hey, it's just an object. I can't even eat now, so I can still afford it. Instead of leaving it idle here, it's better to bring it to someone who can afford it."

The old man shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"How can you say it's idle? Even if you can't make good tea, you can use it to drink water."

Liu Guangqi took the pile of things from the old man and put them on the table. If it was in Liulichang, Liu Guangqi would never do this.

"You don't understand, this purple sand pot was born to make tea, just like wine pots are used to drink, if you keep drinking water, this pot will be as if you haven't had enough food."

"It's the first time I've heard of your reasoning. It's really a long experience."

"No, this is all my own thinking, and it doesn't make sense. You can see which of my things are valuable and how much they are worth, and you can give an estimate."

After finishing speaking, the old man put his hands into his sleeves and put them on the chair.

"Then, I won't be polite."

Liu Guangqi could see that the old man was really short of money now, and bought all his favorite things for money. Although he said it nicely, Liu Guangqi could clearly see the reluctance in his eyes.

Although it can be seen, Liu Guangqi is not a living Bodhisattva. He can help for a while, but he can't help him forever. What he can do now is to buy these things as much as possible, so that the grandpa and grandson can tide over the difficulties.

Liu Guangqi was the first to pick up the purple clay teapot that the old man valued most. Liu Guangqi looked at it and according to the records in the book Tong Fengquan gave him, this teapot should be Chen Mingyuan Zisha Chuanxiang teapot.

The pot is in the shape of a square bucket, with a simple shape, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, handsome and straight.Square handle, square flow, bearing four legs.The bottom is engraved with "Let me spread the fragrance of the book in my chest", "Mingyuan" running script inscription and inscription, and "Chen Mingyuan" and "Huyin" Yang engraved seal script.Purple mud contains the fragrance of calligraphy and ink, and the literati are elegant and elegant.

The four corners of the body, lid, flow, handle and foot are all concave ribs, and the body, lid, foot, and flow are all ribs on the inside.The curved curve of the short bend is ingenious and smooth, just right, and the square pot handle forms a dialogue between round and square shapes;

The craftsmen are meticulous and extremely precise, which can be seen in all details.Proportional balance, comprehensive consideration, the shape is close to perfection, the simple yet changeable geometric shape is full of simple and elegant beauty.

In particular, the ridges and ribs of the pot are sharp and powerful, and the spirit of fortitude is even more visible. The craftsman has devoted all his attention to making this pot even more clear in appearance and extraordinary in strength.

"It's beautiful, it's really beautiful. You should know the origin of this jug, old man. It's a top-quality toy. It's a pity that you bought it after playing with it for so many years."

Liu Guang persuaded again, if the old man still wants to sell after persuading him, then he will not be polite.

"I know there's nothing I can do, Little Doctor Liu, go and see my rice vat, if I can't get any more money, our grandparents and grandchildren will probably starve to death this winter.

To tell you the truth, you are not the first one I am looking for. Two days ago, a junk collector also wanted my pot. I thought about it for a long time and was not willing to buy it, but now I can’t sell it. If I don’t buy it, my grandson will starve to death.

I’ve already felt sorry for my son and daughter-in-law, if I starve my grandson to death again, I’ll be ashamed to see them, woo woo”

As he spoke, the old man wiped away his tears.

"Old man, don't feel bad, life will be better, and life will get better day by day. I'll take this thing, 100 million, you can see if it's okay. I know this price may be a little low, but you have to understand that it's not the Republic of China now, and antiques are worthless."

Seeing the old man like this, Liu Guangqi, who didn't intend to soften his heart at first, still softened his heart. Obviously his life is not too good, but he just can't see the suffering in this world.

"It's quite a lot. It's enough. The trash collector is willing to pay 30. You are taking good care of my old man by paying this 100 million."

Just when Liu Guangqi was happy for being a living Bodhisattva for himself, the words of the old man made Liu Guangqi feel cold for a moment. Can you stop being so serious, old man? Just keep some things in your heart, don't be in front of me I said it to my face, I feel so uncomfortable when you say that.

Chapter 149 Empress Dowager Treasure 4

"Hey, look at my mouth, why don't you spend less, 80, do you think it's okay?"

Seeing that Liu Guangqi's face changed as if he had eaten shit, the old man knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly made amends.

"No, say 100 million is 100 million"

Now that the words have been spoken, they can't be taken back. Who made Liu Guangqi a real man who spit every mouthful and nailed every nail. Enduring the heartache, Liu Guangqi put down the purple sand pot in his hand and looked at several other things.

Among these were a pastel jar, a box, and a scroll.The famille rose jar is very recognizable. The bright red and purple color scheme, at first glance, is the aesthetics of Qian Xiaosi. There is no problem in terms of pattern, shape and patina. Basically, it can be sure that it is something from the Qianlong period.

After Liu Guangqi glanced at it, he put it aside, and then focused on the box and the scroll. The box is just an ordinary box, and the era can't even reach the end of the Qing Dynasty. It is definitely not this box that the old man wants to sell, it should be the box. Liu Guangqi put the box in front of him and opened the box. After seeing the contents of the box, Liu Guangqi was stunned. His eyes were fixed on the contents of the box. Good guy, this old man is Have you copied the Forbidden City? None of the things Liu Guangqi saw in his house can be owned by ordinary people.

"This, this is the Kangxi Twelve Flower God Cup"

Looking at the set of exquisite wine glasses in the box, Liu Guangqi's breath became short of breath. This is a rare good thing, more precious than the purple clay pot just now. If it was one or two, Liu Guangqi would not be so surprised. Looking at the thing in front of him, it is actually a complete set. This is a good thing that doesn't even exist in the Forbidden City.

Liu Guangqi calmed down, took out the twelve cups one by one, and examined them carefully. Liu Guangqi was sure that these were the legendary Kangxi Twelve Flower God Cups, and they were not pieced together, but complete. set.

"Old man, this thing of yours is too precious, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it."

Looking at this set of Huashen Cups in front of him, Liu Guangqi felt like a cat scratching his head, but if he wanted to buy this set of cups, he would have to pay at least 300 million or more. Although Liu Guangqi was rich, he couldn't be such a prodigal. He couldn't live like this.

"It's okay. If you want it, I'll keep it for you. I'll buy it when you have money."

"Thank you so much for that."

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangqi immediately thanked the old man.He swore in his heart that after he got the treasures of the Eight Great Carriages, he would immediately buy this set of cups back, so as to save nights and dreams, and the things he fancy, no matter whether they were people or things, could not be taken away by others.

Reluctantly put the cup back into the box and pushed it to the old man's side, Liu Guangqi took the last pair of scrolls to the table of the Eight Immortals.

"In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, Teng Zijing was relegated to Baling County. In the next year, the government will be smooth and the people will be harmonious, and all the waste will be prosperous. The Yueyang Tower will be rebuilt, its old system will be added, and the poems of Tang sages and modern people will be engraved on it. It belongs to my composition to remember..."

"This is Wen Zhengming's Yueyang Tower. Old man, what did your ancestors do? There are so many treasures."

As soon as Liu Guangqi opened the scroll, lines of flowing and elegant handwriting came into view directly. After seeing Wen Zhengming's inscription and bell seal at the end, Liu Guangqi was numb, looked at the old man and smiled wryly.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. My ancestors were servants in the palace. These things were taken out of the palace by my father."

"That's not surprising."

Hearing the old man's words, Liu Guangqi's doubts were immediately resolved. It seems that the old man's father's position in the palace is not low. If it is low, it is absolutely impossible to get these good things, not to mention the Twelve Flower God Cup, which is Emperor Kangxi's favorite. Most people can't even see it.

"Old man, what do you say about these things? It's not that I don't want to buy them. With my strength, I can also buy this purple sand pot and this famille rose jar."

It's funny to say that Liu Guangqi originally thought that this purple sand pot was the most expensive, but he didn't expect that the things behind it were more expensive one by one.

"It's still the same sentence, as long as you want, I will keep these things for you, and you can buy them when you have money. You should take care of me, an old man."

The old man looked at Liu Guangqi and said cheerfully, now that he has seen the comparison of the tattered items, it is better to sell these items to Liu Guangqi than to take them to the Liulichang and be lowered by others, at least Liu Guangqi will not lie to him .

"Then I accept your favor. I'll give you 100 million for this famille rose jar, how about 200 million with this purple sand pot?"

"Success, do as you say."

"I only have 100 million with me today, so I'll buy the teapot first. How about coming back tomorrow and taking the pot away?"

"no problem."

...

"Come on, I'll show you the house."

After discussing these things, the old man put them back in the back room, and then brought Liu Guangqi to the alley.

"Old man, please slow down, what is your surname, old man, we have known each other for so long, I still don't know what you add."

Seeing that the old man almost slipped and fell, Liu Guangqi hurriedly helped him up, and then chatted with the old man.

"Miangui's surname is Xia."

"My surname is Xia."

After hearing the old man's surname, Liu Guangqi was stunned for a moment, it couldn't be such a coincidence.In the TV series, the keeper of this treasure is named Xia, so it’s not that it’s this person, and that’s not right, the age is wrong.If this old man lived to that time, he would not be more than 100 years old. That is his grandson, that is not right. His grandson is only seven or eight years old, and he will be in his 60s by then, which is not right.

"Old man, do you know a man named Xia Wu?"

Liu Guangqi suddenly thought that the keeper of the treasure in the TV series seemed to be called Xia Wu, but he didn't know if his name was Xia Wu, or he was the fifth child at home.Liu Guangqi asked with the attitude of whether there is a date or not.

"Xia Wu, that's my nephew, how do you know him?"

"He is your nephew. I don't know him, but I have heard of him."

Hearing that Xia Wu was actually the old man's nephew, Liu Guangqi now felt like a pie fell from the sky, and the pie fell on his head.

What is the difference between this situation and the open-book exam? As long as you find this Xia Wu and rent the east wing of his house, the treasure will belong to him.

Although Liu Guangqi wanted the old man to take him directly to Xia Wu's house, after thinking about it for a while, Liu Guangqi decided to play it safe. Since the two are relatives, does the old man know about the treasure.If I asked rashly, what if I startled the snake, although they didn't know where the treasure was, but the house belonged to others.

It was all for nothing if I couldn't get into the house.

"You've heard of him, where did you hear it?"

Sure enough, Liu Guangqi's anomaly still caught the attention of the old man. The old man glanced at Liu Guangqi and asked,

"Ah, Goudan who came to our hospital said that he lives in your place. I also came here after hearing that you have a vacant house here."

The old man really knew something, not only did the old man notice Liu Guangqi's abnormality, Liu Guangqi also noticed the old man's eyes, and he was glad that he didn't talk too much just now, otherwise the old man's vigilance would have really scared the snake.

"God, dog? Oh, you're talking about the kid from the old grandson's family, right? A while ago, grandson told me that his grandson went to the medical center as an apprentice, so it turned out that he went to your place."

"Yes, he just passed there years ago."

"Then you have to take good care of him. This kid has been shy since he was a child."
