Chapter 424: Exchange Meeting for Antique Collectors

Next, Pei Miao took out the bank card and handed it to Expert Zhao, who passed the card to the cashier and swiped the card to issue an invoice.

Taking advantage of this time, Expert Zhao asked Pei Miao: "We have door-to-door delivery services for such large items that exceed one million. Do you need it?"

"That's great." Pei Miao said happily after hearing the words, "Then please trouble old Mr. Zhao to arrange it."

Expert Zhao tore off a piece of paper from the pad beside him, handed it to Pei Miao, and said, "Write down the address."

Pei Miao thought for a while, and stayed in a hotel by himself. The desk was nearly two meters long, and it was inconvenient to deliver such a big thing to the hotel, so he asked, "Mr. Zhao, do you support delivery in other places? For example... Su Province."

Expert Zhao said: "It's possible...but...you have to pay more."

Pei Miao asked, "How much?"

Expert Zhao said: "Sending to a different place is equivalent to express delivery. In fact, the specification is much higher than that of express delivery. Because it is a single item for special delivery, the charge is naturally high, 30 yuan per kilometer."

Pei Miao said, "How do you calculate the kilometers, one-way or round-trip?"

Expert Zhao said, "One way."

Pei Miao asked again: "Is the freight paid after delivery? After all, I don't know how far it is before delivery."

Expert Zhao smiled and said, "Pay the shipping fee first, and then deliver the goods. As for the distance, please navigate and calculate according to the distance displayed in the navigation."

Pei Miao took out her mobile phone to navigate the distance from here to Jinling, which is more than 900 kilometers, which means that the shipping fee is nearly 3 yuan, which is not cheap, but since it is a special car, and it is a million-level valuables, this Shipping fee is also acceptable.

Pei Miao thought for a while and asked, "The last question, if there is a problem with the passing goods on the road, are you responsible?"

Expert Zhao said: "As long as the goods have not been signed for, we will take full responsibility for any problems."

"Okay." Pei Miao nodded and said, "Pay the shipping fee as well, I'm going to mail this book case to Jinling."

Expert Zhao took the bank card again, passed it to the cashier, and said to another clerk, "Give him a consignment note."

The clerk gave Pei Miao a consignment note. Pei Miao took the consignment note and began to fill in the consignee's address and contact information.

The consignment note is quite long, and there is a consignment agreement under it, which prohibits the consignment of contraband and the like, and it also includes accident responsibilities. If any accident occurs during the consignment, Rongbaozhai will take full responsibility.

There are two copies of the consignment note. Pei Miao took one and put it in his pocket. Then he walked to the desk and took out his mobile phone to take a lot of photos of the desk. There were panoramic photos and partial details. , Send all the photos to Shulong, and tell Shulong to sign for the book case at that time, but before signing, you must confirm the details of the book case, whether it is damaged, or whether it has been transferred.

Although I know that a time-honored antique shop like Rongbaozhai will not do dirty things, but it is always right to be careful. After all, there are all kinds of birds in the forest, and Rongbaozhai will not do this. What's wrong with the employees? These days, many people are blind to money and take risks for money, not to mention such an expensive antique.

After checking out here, Pei Miao got the bank card and all the receipts, and walked out of the woodware area.

Pan Jinting followed quickly, and asked in a low voice beside him, "Did you pick up the big leak again?"

Pei Miao said: "No, if I picked up the leak, why should I send it back to Jinling? I should take it to participate in the leak-picking competition."

"That's right." Pan Jinting nodded and said, "But the book case just now is not worth 100 million at all, at most 70, maybe less than 70."

Pei Miao smiled and nodded: "Your eyesight is still good. If there is no flaw in that book case, the price is estimated to be 80 million, but with such a big flaw, it can be sold for 60 million."

Pan Jinting asked in surprise: "Then you still spend 100 million to buy it? Are you being taken advantage of?"

Pei Miao smiled and said, "I also run an antique shop. There is a regular customer in the shop who asked me to make such a book case for him. He said that money is not a problem. I will buy it here for 100 million and go back for 180 million." Sell ​​it to him, excluding the freight, and make a net profit of more than 70."

Pan Jinting couldn't help rolling her eyes: "You are a proper profiteer."

Pei Miao said with a playful smile, "Thank you, thank you."

After visiting Rongbao Zhai, the three of them walked out, and Pan Jinting proudly said, "How about it, let me tell you, don't try to find mistakes when you come to Rongbao Zhai, it's a waste of time."

"Yes, wasting time." Pei Miao nodded vigorously, "I should have listened to you long ago."

Seeing his exaggerated tone, Pan Jinting knew that he was trying to put herself off, but she didn't want to have a quarrel with her, so she decided not to find fault with herself, and said, "Let's go shopping for a while, maybe I can catch a leak if I'm lucky."

"Let's go!" Pei Miao laughed and set off cheerfully.

Seeing that Pei Miao was in a happy mood, Pan Jinting wondered why Pei Miao was so happy after he came out of Rongbaozhai, since Pei Miao obviously didn't find any leaks in Rongbaozhai?

Pei Miao was really happy, he actually missed it in Rongbaozhai, and it was a big one, Oboi's lobular red sandalwood book case, if it goes up for auction, it can sell for at least a few million, if you meet someone you really like, It's okay to shoot tens of millions.

The price is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to pick up leaks in Rongbaozhai. You know, that is Rongbaozhai. Over the past few decades, many antique masters have tried to go to Rongbaozhai to pick up leaks, but all of them have fallen here and returned home. , Rongbaozhai has become the ultimate place for leakers. Now, Pei Miao has broken this iron law and successfully picked up leaks in Rongbaozhai. Can he be unhappy? Even if he cheated to pick up leaks, he is still very happy happy.

After shopping in Liulichang for another two hours, it was getting dark. Although there was a night market, they were somewhat tired after a day of shopping, especially Pan Jinting. Although she had prepared for the day and wore a pair of flat shoes, Still pinching her calf frequently, it was obvious that her legs couldn't take it anymore.

Pei Miao found a restaurant and invited her and Jiang Long to have dinner.

During dinner, Pan Jinting asked Pei Miao, "What are your plans for tomorrow?"

"Rest." Pei Miao said, "It was agreed before."

"Are you really resting?" Pan Jinting asked with wide eyes in surprise, "Don't you want to continue to visit Panjiayuan? We only visited half of Panjiayuan yesterday."

Pei Miao said: "I've already said it, how can I change it? If you say rest, just rest. You've been exhausted for the past two days. You should also take a good rest tomorrow. By the way, if your leg muscles are sore, you can ask Jiang Long to help you." You press, he massages very well, and the strength is strong enough."

Jiang Long was eating. He looked at Pei Miao with his mouth full of food, his eyes fluttering. He thought to himself, "You can figure it out. Let me give Ye Lao a massage. What level is she? Let me give her a massage." according to?"

Pan Jinting turned her head to look at Jiang Long, and shook her head with distaste: "No, men and women are different, it's inconvenient. I'll just go back and use the fascia gun to soothe my leg muscles."

Maybe it was because they were really tired and hungry today, and the appetite of the three of them increased greatly. They ordered a table of dishes, but they ate them all. Jiang Long is from the north, and he eats a lot, so he cooked five bowls of rice in one go. Stretching, every time he added food, Pei Miao would persuade him, "Be careful, don't overstretch your stomach."

Jiang Long said: "No, I'm not full yet, and this bowl is too small, a full bowl of rice is estimated to be less than one or two meters."

Pei Miao didn't think the bowl was too small. When he was at home, he used such a big bowl to eat. Anyway, no matter how hungry he was, he could handle it with one bowl, and it wasn't the kind of full bowl. Sometimes he didn't quite understand. Why do northerners have such a large appetite, and they are also 1.8 meters tall. Is there such a big difference in the size of their stomachs?

After dinner, the three of them drove back to the hotel and went back to their rooms to rest. Of course, Jiang Long didn't have a separate room and lived with Pei Miao.

The next day, Pei Miao really rested in the hotel room, reading, sleeping, and playing with his mobile phone. Jiang Long sat in the living room and watched TV. He watched action movies for a whole day. They were serious action movies, such as "The Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai". Action movies such as "Red Fan District", "King of Killers" and so on.

In the evening, Pan Jinting knocked on the door and told Pei Miao that the exchange meeting would be held at 8 o'clock tomorrow, so try to get there as early as possible. After all, the organizer is the Palace Museum, the leader in antiques in the country, so there is no reason for the organizer to wait.

Early the next morning, at 06:30, Pan Jinting knocked on the door. Pei Miao and Jiang Long had just woken up. Fortunately, they were boys. They got dressed in 5 minutes, washed up, followed Pan Jinting out, and bought some at the roadside breakfast shop. After breakfast, in the car, Pei Miao and Jiang Long ate steamed buns and drank soy milk, and breakfast was settled like this.

Pan Jinting glanced at the two of them from the rearview mirror occasionally, and sighed sincerely: "It's good to be a boy."

Pei Miao was puzzled and asked, "Where is it?"

"Anywhere is fine." Pan Jinting said, "You don't need to waste time on some trivial matters in life. You see, when you get up in the morning, you can wash up in a few minutes, without wasting time at all. For me, I wake up at 05:30 and wake up at 06:30 to go out."

Pei Miao laughed and said, "That's because you girls are making trouble for yourself. It's not like you can't go out without makeup."

"Going to the exchange meeting without makeup? I guess someone will say that I don't pay enough attention to the exchange meeting." Pan Jinting said, "It's not just about makeup. To attend such an important occasion, you must look dignified. When you wake up in the morning, Showering, combing hair, putting on make-up, choosing clothes... For women, everyone's instinct is to look at the appearance first, and you have to admit that."

Pei Miao said: "That's true, but if you can reach a certain height, others will no longer pay attention to your appearance."

"That's right." Pan Jinting sighed, "But it's too difficult. At the same height, women have to work harder than men. Moreover, no matter how good a woman is, she can't rely on gender-specific Troubled, in my next life... I must be a man."

Pei Miao smiled and said, "Alright, let's sworn brothers in the next life."

Pan Jinting laughed when she heard the words: "Maybe you will become a woman in your next life, and you will suffer for a few days every month. It will come, you are annoying, if it does not come, you will be more annoying, and you will still worry. You also understand the troubles of women."

"Hiss... It's scary just thinking about it." Pei Miao laughed, "When I die and go to hell, I will definitely bribe King Yama to make me a man in my next life."

Although the two often quarreled in the past two days, neither of them held any grudges. They chatted casually, and then talked and laughed again. Unknowingly, they came to the Palace Museum.

Today, the Palace Museum is very lively. Many people came. Looking around, they all have white hair. It seems that there is no white hair on their heads. They are embarrassed to participate in this exchange meeting. Pei Miao seems to be one of them. Special conspicuous.

Pei Miao accidentally walked past the two old men and heard the two old men talking about herself.

"Have you heard that Mr. Ye actually asked his apprentice to represent Shanghai and Suzhou to participate in this exchange meeting this time? Didn't he intend to praise his apprentice?"

"I've heard it a long time ago. It is said that his apprentice is very young, only in his twenties, but despite his young age, he is a master of appreciating treasures..."

"A master? Hehe, how tall is it? A master appreciating treasures in his twenties is not afraid of being laughed at, do you believe it?"

"Of course I don't believe it. We have been in this industry for decades. We know how deep the water is in this industry. Even if you start learning from a young age, until you are in your 20s, at most you will start a live broadcast to help people identify Look at the level of things, those are fake moves..."

"It's not that I don't respect Mr. Ye. I think Mr. Ye did something wrong this time. Maybe it's because his apprentice is playing tricks. It just so happens that Mr. Ye is getting old and his mind is not clear. Kidnapping has climbed onto the high branch of Ye Lao."

"Well, it's very possible. I look down on such a person. This exchange meeting must make him make a fool of himself..."

Pei Miao had already walked past these two, and she felt very helpless about the words of these two old men. How could these little old men be like old women chatting in the village, chewing their tongues indiscriminately? As for celebrities, they are not afraid of losing their identity.

Pan Jinting secretly smiled at Pei Miao, gloated, and said in a low voice, "I'm upset with you, you're going to be targeted."

Pei Miao raised her eyebrows: "Who is afraid of whom? It's still the same sentence. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. Let's see how my back waves will pat them on the beach."

After walking for a while, I entered a courtyard with arches. Behind the courtyard was a relatively tall room. After entering, I saw a large hall. In the middle of the hall, there was an Eight Immortals table. Plastic stools, many people are already sitting on the stools on both sides.

Zhang Tongshou also said that Lu Hongru was chatting with a group of old people, Pei Miao stepped forward and said, "President Zhang, Vice President Lu, good morning."

"Yo, Pei Miao is here!" The two said in unison, smiling all over their faces, their enthusiasm made others feel jealous.

Pei Miao asked, "Where should I sit?"

Lu Hongru warmly greeted: "Come, follow me." After speaking, he led Pei Miao and the others to the stool area on the right.

After Pei Miao approached, she found that each stool had a name written on it. Pei Miao's stool was in the first row, and there was a note on it with Pei Miao's name written on it. With Pan Jinting's name.

Today’s exchange meeting, all the guides should also participate, because these guides are basically excellent interns or newcomers of the Palace Museum, let them participate in this exchange meeting, one can learn experience and knowledge from these old masters, Secondly, they are also witnesses of the provincial representatives picking up the leaks before the game.

You know, every guide has a full-time surveillance camera hanging around their necks, and they took pictures of what the contestants missed. After all, this competition is very important and everyone values ​​it very much, so no cheating is allowed.
