Chapter 112 Gao Yuanyuan
She was beaming with joy, as if she had finally found Bole, someone who could help her greatly improve her piano skills.
Mr. Gao was surprised and said: "Then you don't want to learn guzheng anymore?"
Gao Yuanyuan said: "After studying for so long, it's still the same. It's hard to make progress. I feel that our guzheng teacher's teaching is very shallow. I'm afraid that it will be like this if I practice again in the future. So I can learn other things and maybe I can practice better."
Okay. He plays the piano so well, so he can definitely teach me well. Dad, you can keep him as my tutor. In this way, he will be my private teacher and can tutor me all the time."
Mr. Gao said seriously: "Let's talk about this matter later - okay, I will tell Mr. Yao."
He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He just wondered how could Brother Yao come to his home to be a tutor. That was not his job. His career was in collecting antiques. It was impossible to change his profession to become a guqin teacher. But it would be okay to ask him for advice.
The question is, maybe he even agreed to accept his daughter as his apprentice. It is normal for a luthier to accept a disciple.
Later, he finally sent his daughter away. Although he promised her, he didn't mention anything about what happened just now. He couldn't rush this matter, so he had to speak slowly.
Next, getting down to business, Mr. Gao asked Jiahao to take a look at a few things, including two pieces of ancient jade, a piece of porcelain from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and one or two other antiques.
Seeing that those antiques were vaguely emitting a white "treasure light" on the surface, Jia Hao knew something.
"Brother Yao, these items are quite controversial. I asked a few masters to look at them before, but some of them said they were not old enough. What do you think?" Mr. Gao introduced the relevant situation.
Jiahao smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Gao, sometimes it is difficult to draw a conclusion about antiques. It is normal for there to be disputes, and no one has given an exact reason to prove that there is anything wrong with it. In my opinion
Look, there’s nothing wrong with these things of yours, don’t worry.”
When Mr. Gao mentioned that he only needed to determine the age of those things, Jiahao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was his strength, but of course it had to be under certain conditions. Today, his eye powers have been used up.
He could no longer look at the ins and outs of those old antiques, but he could still clearly see the aura emitted by those things, and he could basically determine whether they were genuine or fake.
"Brother Yao, are you sure?! These things are all genuine?!" Hearing Jiahao's solemn words, Mr. Gao asked in surprise and joy.
Jiahao said: "It's really hard to say for sure. I can only evaluate it from my perspective. Mr. Gao, how about this? I'll think about it carefully when I look back, because there are two things I'm not sure about yet, but
Please ask my master for advice and check some information and there should be no problem!"
He said this in a serious manner. Of course, asking for a teacher and looking up information were just excuses. His real purpose was to wait for the "skill" of the detector to cool down, and when he looked at it again later, he would be able to determine some of the difficult-to-determine details.
The specific age of the antique.
"Okay! That's good work!" Mr. Gao said excitedly, and he didn't think much about it. Even if Jiahao said that he was not sure at all, he might be able to understand. After all, the other party was just a mortal person, and he was still a human being.
It is understandable that at such a young age, what he has learned is limited.
After looking at those things and staying in Mr. Gao's collection room for a while, Jiahao said goodbye to Mr. Gao. Mr. Zheng and the others were still waiting outside. We couldn't keep them waiting for a long time. Anyway, this time
This matter can only go so far, and there is no hope of finding out what happened tonight.
"Brother Yao, can I have a chat with you alone?"
Before walking out of the study, Mr. Gao suddenly asked solemnly.
Jiahao and Lin Haitao glanced at each other, and Lin Haitao immediately said knowingly: "Brother Yao, if you have something to do, I'll leave first. I'll go down and wait for you."
"Well, I'll go down soon." Jiahao nodded.
"Okay." Lin Haitao responded, then said goodbye and walked out of the study.
"Mr. Gao, is there anything else?" Jiahao asked.
Mr. Gao said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask, do you collect by yourself now or do you work somewhere?"
Jiahao answered truthfully: "While I was working for my friends, I also opened a small shop myself and took care of it when I had nothing else to do."
"That's great, the work is very fulfilling." Mr. Gao said, "I don't know if you have time. I am short of a manpower here. He is someone who specializes in antique appraisal. If you are interested, can you come over and help me?
?I won’t let you suffer, and I will give you better treatment than any other company you work in.”
"Oh, this?" Jiahao shook his head without hesitation and said, "Mr. Gao, I'm really sorry. I'm quite busy now and can't take the time."
He decisively rejected Mr. Gao's warm invitation to work as an appraiser or errand boy for others. Naturally, his Jiahao would no longer be able to do this job. No matter how high a salary he was offered, it would not satisfy him. Now he has
With that ability, he can work alone, and it's almost enough to hire others. Although he is still working at "Jianbaozhai" now, the situation is completely different. He is just helping a good friend. Mainly because he can work at "Jianbaozhai"
He learned a lot of useful things. Besides, the environment of "Jianbaozhai" was so relaxed. He didn't have to go to work for several days and just said hello to Lin Haitao and Uncle Long.
"Oh, that's okay." Mr. Gao shook his head and said, "Since you are very busy now, I won't force you."
Jiahao apologized: "I'm sorry, but if there is any use in the future, I will try my best."
In his eyes, although Mr. Gao looked arrogant and unkind, he was actually a nice person, enthusiastic and measured, and it was still very pleasant to get along with him.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing." Mr. Gao smiled and said, "You saw it just now. My daughter was attracted by your beautiful piano sound. She said she wanted to ask you for advice. I wonder if you can
Become her teacher and accept her as a student?"
Jiahao said in surprise: "I haven't had any students yet. I probably don't have much time, but if she wants to learn Guqin, I can teach her, haha, let's do my best."
He has extraordinary piano skills and rich knowledge, so it is easy for him to teach students, but he has never thought of accepting apprentices in this area. However, since Mr. Gao and his daughter have requested him so sincerely, it would be unreasonable not to help him.
Jiahao knew from the beginning that Gao Yuanyuan envied his piano skills, but he did not expect that Gao Yuanyuan wanted to become his teacher.
He learned all kinds of superb skills from antiques. As time goes by, there will definitely be many lost skills among them. Passing them down from his generation will be a good thing for promoting ancient art.
"I know, I know!" Mr. Gao nodded hurriedly, "I know you are a busy man! All you need to do is give me some advice. I don't want you to be a full-time teacher."
Naturally, his daughter's request could not be fulfilled. It was impossible for Jiahao to be their tutor. If it were an ordinary person, it would be almost the same.
After the two agreed on the matter, Mr. Gao happily took Jiahao out of the collection room and went to the hall downstairs. At that time, Mr. Zheng and Lin Haitao were patiently waiting for him.
After meeting Mr. Zheng and the others, the group was ready to say goodbye to Mr. Gao, but before Jahao left, Mr. Gao gave him a gift, which was a brocade box wrapped in yellow silk, with a "precious light" shining on the box.
, no one knows what kind of treasure is inside.
Although he didn't know what the gift in the box was, through the thick white "precious light" emitting from it, Jiahao imagined that it was an antique inside, and it should be very valuable.
"Mr. Gao, you are too polite!" Jiahao said quickly, "I came to visit your home and I didn't bring anything with me. How could I accept such an expensive gift from you?!"
He was flattered. He was not the only one who came to the Gao family to appraise treasures this time. In addition to Mr. Zheng and Lin Haitao who were accompanying him, there were many people, and many of them were masters like Mr. Zheng.
Experts, in front of Mr. Zheng and others, Mr. Gao did not show this kind of behavior, but only gave him a gift. This was both surprising and a bit embarrassing.
But Mr. Gao shook his head and said: "You didn't even look at it, how could you know what precious things it is? Brother Yao, you're welcome. It's your first time to come to my house and you've helped me so much. You have nothing to give me. Xiao
It's a small thought, but it's not respectful, so please accept it."
As he spoke, he carefully handed the gift bag to Jiahao and continued: "Actually, it's not something expensive, just a little gift."
The kindness turned out to be disrespectful, so Jiahao had no choice but to accept it, so he stretched out his hands to take it.
"Thank you then." Jiahao thanked him.
He did not open the box on the spot to inspect the contents. After accepting the gifts, he said goodbye to Mr. Zheng and the others and left the Gao family.
"Brother Yao, what good thing did Mr. Gao give you?"
In the car driving to the hotel where they were staying, Lin Haitao suddenly asked curiously.
Jiahao shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Let's go home and see."
Now he can no longer view the image records of antiques through the alien detector, cannot find out the origin and ins and outs of the treasure in the brocade box, and has no idea what it is.
Lin Haitao said: "It looks very grand, it should be something very valuable. Brother Yao, I can see that Mr. Gao values you very much. What did he say to you after I left just now? It's inconvenient."
Reveal a little bit?”
Jiahao smiled slightly and said: "What's the inconvenience? In fact, he didn't say anything, so he just invited me to help him."
"It turns out that he wants to pay a high salary to hire you as an appraiser." Lin Haitao said suddenly, "Did you agree to it?"
Jiahao solemnly shook his head and said: "Of course not! I am too busy with my own affairs, how can I still have time to do things for him? I also want to have more time to go out and walk around. There are so many antique markets across the country.
.Wouldn’t it be even better if you were lucky enough to find a few good things?!”
Lin Haitao laughed and said: "Brother Yao, you are right to think so! You have such good eyesight, how can you work for others?! It is more promising to collect on Taobao by yourself! Look at every item you have found before
The treasures may be priceless treasures, so if you work for others, how long will it take to earn enough income?!"
"Well, I know!" Jiahao nodded heavily and said, "My goal now is very clear. I will open a store and collect things at the same time. I will develop further when I have enough funds."
"How to develop? Brother Yao, what is your ultimate goal? Is it to open a private museum or an auction company?" Lin Haitao asked.
Jiahao replied in a deep voice: "I have thought about it, but now we are still too far away from that goal!"
"If you have a goal, you will be motivated!" Lin Haitao encouraged, "Brother Yao, you can definitely do it! In just a short time, you have found so many big treasures. In time, you can collect everything in a museum, right?"
! Hehe, I will design it for you when the time comes. I want to create the largest and most distinctive museum in the world. There are all kinds of antiques from ancient and modern times in the museum. It feels like traveling in the history of world civilization.
That feeling in the long river, tsk tsk, not to mention how wonderful it is!"
"Haha!" Jiahao couldn't help but raise his head to the sky and said loudly, "Haitao, you really know how to dream! How easy is this? This is just our best wish!"
"I'm not just dreaming, I'm also designing a grand blueprint for you!" Lin Haitao said seriously.
The two of them were immersed in beautiful and distant fantasies. After a while, Lin Haitao suddenly changed the topic and said: "Brother Yao, do you still remember Mr. Gao's daughter Gao Yuanyuan just now?"
"Of course I still remember it. What's wrong?!" Jiahao said in surprise.
Lin Haitao smiled and said: "Don't you see? She admires you very much. You play the guqin so well that you attracted her."
