Because the speed of pasting the strips can’t keep up with what the old and the young are doing.

There were so many things they wanted to buy that they quickly overwhelmed the people in Hongguang Pavilion and stopped selecting for a while.

Until Ning Weimin showed a blank check, Luo Guangliang and Xiao Tao, who had accompanied them, showed two more boxes of banknotes.

Only the manager of Hongguang Pavilion can be sure that these people are not joking, but really want to buy.

However, since the purchase was a purchase, the regulations had to be changed. After convincing a few individual customers in the store to leave, they closed the store and just waited for Ning Weimin and his party to select items.

But even so, everyone in the store is extremely busy, because the accountant has to do the accounting, and the clerk has to be responsible for packing the boxes.

I'll see you in the afternoon when all the statistics are finished.

In total, Ning Weimin and the others selected nine hundred and sixty-four items and bought out one-tenth of the items in the store, for a total price of two hundred and seventy-two thousand two hundred.

If you think about it, packaging alone is a big project.

So it was all down to this, and Ning Weimin counted out all the cash.

The manager of Hongguang Pavilion still couldn't help wiping his sweat and hung up the phone to his superiors to ask for instructions on whether it was OK to buy it like this.

What is being sold is of high quality.

If you want to say that the leadership is really awesome, it's not just about nodding and giving instructions.

He also asked the manager to give Ning Weimin another discount and only charged him 250,000 yuan.

Later, the leaders of the municipal bureau asked the manager to transfer the phone call to Ning Weimin and personally expressed his gratitude to him for supporting the work of the Cultural Relics Bureau.

Finally, I also informed him of the news that the Cultural Relics Company also had a Dunhua Pavilion with many good things.

If you are interested, invite Ning Weimin to visit there another day.

Look, this is the value of favors. How can we live up to the leader’s kindness?

Nothing else, I definitely have to go!

But this was not the end. Ning Weimin was satisfied, but before leaving, Kang Shude had to pick up a big leak.

The old man Qingqing heard from the manager of Hongguang Pavilion that there were some big items in the store at the back, so he wanted to take a look.

It didn't matter what I saw, it turned out to be a pair of flat peach trees planted in large pastel flower pots.

I came out and asked about the price. I heard it was four thousand, and I wanted to buy it again. I immediately urged Ning Weimin to count the money.

Ning Weimin still didn't understand it at that time.

Because when he went in and took a look, the pair of feeders were indeed well made.

The peach trees are lifelike, their flowers and leaves glowing with fluorescence, shiny and smooth.

It is so lifelike and beautiful that at first glance the words "beautiful" can be heard.

But the problem is that the cutter is not still a cutter after all. This thing is made of glass, not a gem, and its history is too limited.

Think about it, this thing only appeared in the middle of the Qing Dynasty to replace gem bonsai.

Even if you just count it as an antique, it's not too early.

four thousand?

You can buy ten large pieces of official kiln porcelain from the Yongzong and Qianlong periods, and they are in good condition.

Is it a loss if I just buy this thing?

Among other things, Ning Weimin has a master of cooking utensils like Master Jiang under his command.

If he wanted something like this, his own people could burn it, and the cost would definitely be much lower.

Besides, this thing is a bit too big.

The tree alone is only 1.5 meters tall, and the branches spread out to take up a lot of space, and the large glass cover is placed on the ground.

A pot of food takes up almost two square meters and weighs less than 200 kilograms.

In addition, this thing is too delicate, and there is no place where it is not afraid of being bumped.

Just a little bit of carelessness and one mistake can lead to death.

This thing has to be shipped back. Hey, most people are worried to death. How can people get it home?

Although Ning Weimin had already prepared for it, today he asked Luo Guangliang and Xiao Tao to ride a cart together, ready to take the goods away.

But just to pull this thing, one pot would probably occupy a car, and their two cars would have to make a separate trip, which is a bit unfair.

In short, Ning Weimin was a little unhappy after thinking about how to lose money, and tactfully advised the master not to think about it again, saying that it would be too troublesome to buy such a thing and move it around.

Unexpectedly, Kang Shude glared at him with raised eyebrows and said rudely, "The peach tree represents longevity. This is a good fortune. I like this auspiciousness. What's wrong? I can't buy it?"

Now Ning Weimin knew something was wrong and did not dare to object anymore. Then he quickly endured the pain and took out four piles of banknotes to pay the bill.

Then he followed Luo Guangliang and Xiao Tao, and under the command of the old man, they wrapped the pair of peach trees and their glass covers in thick quilts. They carefully lifted them onto the tricycle and decided to transport the pair of things first.

To be honest, this trip was really exhausting.

When you think about it, you will know that something over 200 kilograms is still so delicate.

Can the person who transports this thing not suffer any consequences?

Even if it is transported by car, the rider cannot go very fast, and someone has to hold everything in the car.

It's almost like supporting two living ancestors who have many things to do.

But having said that, when they finally got out of the Hongguang Pavilion, the four of them protected the pair on the road, Ning Weimin finally knew what was going on from the old man's mouth, and immediately no longer felt that this trip was going on.

It's a loss.

For no other reason than because the flat peach tree that Kang Shude brought back was not ordinary. The old man said that it belonged to the Queen Mother of the West.

As for why you say this, what basis does the old man have?

Of course there is a basis for that.

First of all, such large utensils are rare among the people, and can only be made by imperial factories dedicated to the palace.

In addition, the pastel flower pots match the characteristics of the Tongzhi and Guangxu periods, and the natural age is right.

The most important thing is that the Queen Mother has a habit of requiring that the porcelain she uses must be signed with the name of the palace where she once lived.

Although most people in the world know that "Chuxiu Palace" is her residence, few people know that "Tihe Palace" is the place where the Queen Mother dines.

On the edge of the flower pot, there are exactly the words "Ti He Dian". Although it is very small, it can still be recognized.

But why didn’t the people in Hongguang Pavilion discover this?

According to the old man's inference, most of the items with the words "Ti He Dian" found so far are tableware, and there are very few large utensils with these three characters.

In addition, it is easy for people to be careless with things like feeders.

Even Ning Weimin knew that the ingredients had little history. Of course, the people in Hongguang Pavilion also knew that they would not take this thing seriously.

Finally, combined with the special theme of this kind of peach tree and historical records, we can deduce it.

There are records that Empress Dowager Cixi spent 15,000 taels of silver on her 50th birthday, 121,100 taels on her 60th birthday, and 38,500 taels on her 70th birthday. She made a large amount of porcelain, ornaments and utensils.

So this thing, not surprisingly, must have been specially made for the birthday of Empress Dowager Cixi.

And it is an ornament specially placed in the "Tihe Hall".

As for the specific time of burning, there is a trickier way, just count the number of peaches on the tree, and you can probably know.

After saying this, all the young people except Kang Shude himself became interested immediately.

After Luo Guangliang and Xiao Tao urged him, Ning Weimin counted them down and found that it was true!

Each tree holds a full sixty peaches!

This time, he was rewarded. Not only was he not tired at all, but his depression disappeared.

On the contrary, he became energetic and started to feel complacent.

"Oh, this belongs to the Queen Mother of the West. It will never be seen again. I think it is considered a national treasure. Four thousand is a bargain. I said, Master, there are so many things in Hongguang Pavilion, why do you just

You can tell that these two things are special. They have sharp eyes. Hey, we are lucky today. Look at this luck..."

However, the old man was extremely disrespectful and deliberately provoked him.

"Is this luck? I rely on my eyesight! You boy, you really have a pair of white eyes. The longer you live, the more you go back. Of course, it's all down to me. I shouldn't accept you as an apprentice who relies on luck. Listen.

, you paid for this thing, but it’s not your share, don’t worry about it. When you get tired of it, I will also donate it. Who told you to slack off in your studies, there is always nothing real in your stomach, shame on you

Got to panic..."

It doesn't hurt much, but it is extremely insulting, but people's self-esteem cannot be hurt like this.
