This trip out took a long time.
The plane parked at Haicheng Hongqiao Airport.
Customs immediately came forward to inspect.
Because Lin Xuan reported returning to China with a large amount of gold antiques.
Although this batch of gold is antique, it is still gold.
The entry and exit of gold is controlled.
So customs has to check the quantity.
When they saw the big Buddha head, the cultural relics expert hired by the customs was stunned. He looked at the golden Buddha head carefully: "Mr. Lin, you can donate this Buddha head to the museum.
Lin Xuan glanced at him: "Do you know Liu Sanyuan?"
The expert was stunned for a moment: "That's my uncle."
Lin Xuan: "Very good. Ask Liu Sanyuan who I am. Please don't try to fool someone next time."
The captain of the customs inspection: "Ahem, Teacher Tang, inspection is inspection. Don't do anything unrelated to inspection in the future."
The expert was so frustrated that he stopped talking.
"It's correct, it's the same as reported."
Because the cargo was very valuable and heavy, it could not be passed through the passage, so after the inspection, the prepared car took the cargo and a few people and left directly.
It took the car more than half an hour to arrive at Lin Xuan's garden.
Lan Jiang was a little surprised when he saw Lin Xuan's garden: "The trees you can see outside are a bit precious."
The door opened and the car drove in. As it drove, Lan Jiang exclaimed:
"A vast forest of red sandalwood?"
"Is this a living golden nanmu?"
"This is... pineapple flower tree?"
"This can be fed, and it's so big. It's at least a hundred years old. Where can I buy it?!"
Lan Xirou: "There are so many flowers!"
Wang Ruoya was standing in front of the villa, and Abreu was preparing a trolley.
The car stopped, Lin Xuan got out of the car, Wang Ruoya hugged Lin Xuan: "Husband!"
"I heard that you went hunting this time and encountered a treasure?"
"Oops, missed it!"
Lin Xuan: "Next time I go to salvage a sunken ship, I will definitely take you with me."
Lin Xuan has already notified Zhao Xiaoou to install a gantry crane and fishing equipment in front of the cruise ship he ordered.
The current equipment is all foldable and will not affect the use of the cruise ship itself.
It is estimated that in a few months, the ship will make its maiden voyage.
There is no shortage of standard cruise ships at Jinmen Shipyard. In the end, most of the luxury cruise ships will be decorated later.
When Lin Xuan places an order, the boat is already built.
Just redecorate.
He Meng and Abreu loaded boxes of gold onto the cart, and Lin Xuan also joined them.
Abreu: "Boss, please go and take a rest, I'm sorry.
"It's okay." Lin Xuan carried a box and put it on the cart by himself, then turned around to hug it again.
Abreu was a little surprised: "The boss is really powerful."
Wang Ruoya took Lan Xirou to enjoy the flowers.
Lan Jiang was watching the trees nearby.
Lin Xuan turned around holding a box of gold and saw Da Zhuang hiding in a tree not far away.
"Dazhuang, come down."
Da Zhuang probably smelled the smell of strangers, so he hid in the tree.
Hearing Lin Xuan's shout, Da Zhuang immediately jumped down from the tree and ran over.
(chdg) Lin Xuan put down the gold and touched the big head rubbing against his thigh.
Lan Jiang turned around: "Lin Xuan, this spy"...
Halfway through, Lan Jiang was stunned and looked at Da Zhuang: "What is this?"
Bigger than a leopard, smaller than a lion or tiger.
The patterns are different from those of the big cats known in nature.
Especially the pair of teeth that look like daggers.
I:"..."
Lin Xuan touched Da Zhuang's head and said, "Go and play."
"My cat."
Lan Jiang wiped his sweat: "Your cat really looks like a saber-toothed tiger.
Lin Xuan:
Lan Jiang: "Is it some kind of bio-high-tech product?"
"That's right." Lin Xuan: "I can't say too much."
Wang Ruoya and Lan Xirou are among the flowers.
Lan Xirou: "It's so beautiful here!"
Wang Ruoya: "These should be researched by Lin Xuan, they are the same as ordinary flowers."
"Just like these big roses, they will never wither. Even if they wither, a new flower will grow in a few days."
Lan Xirou smelled it: "It smells so good."
Wang Ruoya: "By the way, Xirou, Lin Xuan's birthday is the day after tomorrow."
Lan Xirou: "Huh?"
Wang Ruoya: "He told me before that the second day of Tian Yue is his birthday.
Lan Xirou: "The first day of October every year happens to be that day on the lunar calendar."
"My birthday in the lunar calendar happens to be the first day of October this year."
Lan Xirou asked this, of course, to write it down.
"Are you planning to give him a surprise?"
Wang Ruoya: "Actually, I didn't want to hold a party for him at first."
"But then I thought about it and thought I should still hold a party for him, so..."
Lan Xirou: "Then, how to do it?"
Wang Ruoya: "I will have people ready when the time comes and try to get everything done in the shortest possible time."
"On that day, you can take him out in the afternoon and come back at five or six in the afternoon."
"Time should be enough." Wang Ruoya:
"I will invite some of his friends over and give him a surprise in the evening."
"Okay." Lan Xirou agreed.
On the first day of October, everyone has already had a holiday.
Lan Xirou said she wanted to spend a few more days in Haicheng, so she easily agreed.
I stopped by the Jewelry and Jade Association branch here in Haicheng to participate in an event.
People at Lan Jiang's level cannot avoid all kinds of social activities.
I heard that I went to have the jade appraised.
After lunch, Lan Xirou said: "Lin Xuan, is the antique market here in Haicheng fun?"
Lin Xuan just put down the bowl and chopsticks: "Huh? It's not bad."
Aunt Yang came over to clear the table. Wang Ruoya said: "Lin Xuan, please take Xirou to the antique market. I have something to do this afternoon."
Lin Xuan: "Okay, Abreu, you come with me."
Wang Ruoya: "That won't work. I have something to ask Abreu for help today."
Lin Xuan scratched his head: "What's going on?"
Wang Ruoya: "I asked Abreu to be a jewelry model. Today I have ethnic jewelry to display, and two designer friends are coming over.
Lin Xuan nodded: "That's okay."
He Meng had long ago said that he would pick them up when his wife and children came back, so only Lin Xuan and Lan Xirou went there in the afternoon.
Lin Xuan didn't know that these were all planned by them.
Yunzhou Antique Street.
Lin Xuan's BMW 7 parked in the parking lot and got out of the car.
Lan Xirou looked at the situation nearby: "The antique street here seems to be more modern than Panjiayuan."
"Things are different."
In Yanjing, it is forbidden to build too many tall buildings, so many low-rise buildings maintain the ancient style for the sake of style.
Here in Haicheng, everything is moving towards modernization and improvement.
Even a place like Yunzhou Antique Street is a business district model with a shopping mall and a pedestrian street.
"It's a big holiday today, so there are many people inside."
Lin Xuan: "But let me tell you in advance, don't ask the stall owner if something is genuine or not, and don't squat down to look at everything carefully."
“Don’t take things from other people’s hands and look at them.”
Lan Xirou's family has no shortage of antiques at all. Over in Myanmar, people are trying to collect antiques for Jiang.
Lan Xirou may not understand these rules.
"Okay!" Lan Xirou: "I remember."
After entering the market, Lin Xuan discovered that recently, there have been more genuine products.
What's the point of this?
It stands to reason that Haicheng should also have an antique trading place like Yanjing Yanyun Club.
There shouldn't be so many genuine items in the antique street.
After thinking about it carefully, Lin Xuan thought of the reason.
Maybe it’s because of the Golden Week in October.
Many stall holders are not professional stall holders.
Instead, they really take their own stuff and sell it.
In front of a stall, Lan Xirou said: "Hey, this little gourd is so good."
Lan Xirou picked up the gourd: "Boss, how much does this cost?"
Boss: "Three thousand."
Lan Xirou was stunned for a moment: "Three thousand? So expensive?"
Lin Xuan: "You can't sell it for a hundred dollars."
Boss: "Young man, you are too stingy. Your girlfriend is attracted to you. Why don't you give me two hundred?"
Lin Xuan smiled: "Good guy, how can this be said to be stingy? This is called careful calculation, like this, one hundred and fifty."
The boss handed over the QR code: "Okay."
After Lin Xuan scanned the code, he put the gourd into Lan Xirou's handbag, then continued walking without saying anything.
After walking a long way, Lan Xirou asked: "Is that thing real? One hundred and fifty? I feel that two is about the same."
Lin Xuan: “It is indeed a real thing, a cricket gourd made by Liu Jinmen craftsman in the late Qing Dynasty.
"Warm in winter and cool in summer."
"Usually those who fought with crickets at that time had to hang the crickets for the winter, but this thing can raise crickets for the winter."
Lan Xirou: "That's not allowed..."
"Tens of thousands of dollars."
