Chi Jiujiu, Lu Heng and Lu Qing drove to the antique street in South City.
This street is considered the oldest street in the south city. It has the most shops selling antiques, and there are also a few scattered shops selling small accessories.
After parking the car.
Lu Heng and Lu Qing, uncle and nephew, followed Chi Jiujiu on the left and right. The combination of handsome men and beautiful women was very eye-catching.
The three of them started looking at the shops on the street, and Chi Jiujiu was not sure what to buy.
The first shop she saw was a dazzling array of jade and porcelain, which dazzled Chi Jiujiu, but none of them satisfied her.
As for jade, the quality of the jade used for jade carvings in this shop is not even as good as the small bottle she uses to hold mouthwash.
The other porcelains are all "old", and their age is no more than a hundred years old.
Chi Jiujiu took the two of them into the second house.
This shop sells a lot of calligraphy and paintings, as well as brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.
See these.
Chi Jiujiu thought for a moment and thought, Grandpa likes chess more, so why not choose the secondary chess piece?
"Mr. Lu, Senior Brother Lu, please help me take a look at Go." Chi Jiujiu stopped looking at the calligraphy and paintings and turned to the two handsome men.
Lu Heng nodded, "Yeah."
Lu Qing responded, "Okay."
Hearing Chi Jiujiu's words, the shop owner walked over with a smile on his face. "This lady wants to see some chess. I happen to have a collection of several types in my shop. Please follow me upstairs."
The three of them followed the shop owner upstairs.
Unlike the calligraphy and paintings on the first floor, the second floor mainly collects chess and music, as well as some musical instruments such as flutes and pipes.
The Chinese musical instruments include the guqin, guzheng, konghou, pipa, ruan and yueqin, and the main type of chess is Go.
The shop owner ignored the musical instruments and introduced the Go board placed in the corner to Chi Jiujiu and the other two.
"Miss, sir, the Go boards in my shop are mainly made of several materials, namely, Yunzi, white marble, Hetian jade, and clam stone."
"Among them, Yunzi Go originated in Yongchang, Yunnan. It is mainly forged from agate and amber. It began in the Tang and Song dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was loved by dignitaries and scholars..."
......
After listening to the shop owner's introduction, Chi Jiujiu felt that she had learned something new.
The shop owner asked, "What kind of material do you want, miss?"
"Well, just take the most expensive chess piece in your store." Chi Jiujiu said. She didn't know anything about the material, so she just bought the most expensive one.
Lu Heng: ...
Lu Qing: ???
Since you chose the most expensive one, why did you listen to the shop owner's introduction for so long? It turns out that Mr. Chi/Ms. Jiujiu's thoughts are not something that ordinary people can guess.
The shop owner immediately smiled and said, "Miss, the most expensive Go board in my shop is made of Hetian jade. Each piece is carefully polished. There are 361 pieces, and it took three years to make them. The price may be a bit high."
Chi Jiujiu didn't tell the shop owner Mo Ji and took out the black card. "How much is it?"
Seeing the black card, the shop owner's smile widened. "One price, seven million."
"So expensive?" Chi Jiujiu raised her eyebrows.
It’s not that it’s too expensive, but this price is probably the ceiling in the Go world.
Hearing Chi Jiujiu's unconscious words, the shop owner quickly assured her, "This is the only Hetian jade Go set in the shop. A friend of mine left it in my shop and asked me to help sell it. It's a fair price and I won't cheat you."
Chi Jiujiu looked at the boss's expression and knew that he was not lying.
"Okay, swipe the card."
After choosing a New Year's gift for her grandfather, Chi Jiujiu treated Lu Heng and his nephew to hotpot to express her gratitude.
Lu Qing chose the hot pot restaurant.
The location is not far from the antique street, and the level is worthy of the status of the three people.
"Welcome Mr. Lu and the two gentlemen and ladies! Please come in." The waiter was warm and flattering.
Can afford to eat in this restaurant.
The diners are generally from the upper class circles of South City.
Chi Jiujiu and Lu Qing are relatively unfamiliar faces, but Lu Heng is well-known in Nancheng as the executive president of Gong Group.
During training, the waiters remembered Lu Heng's face clearly, just to avoid providing inconsiderate service and offending the guests.
Even though Gong Hong is old now.
He is still the richest man in South City.
Anyone who has anything to do with the Gong family or the Gong Group is an important figure in Nancheng.
"Mr. Lu, we have three themed private rooms reserved in the store: forest, starry sky, and ocean. What would you like to choose?"
Lu Heng looked at Chi Jiujiu. He didn’t care. It was just a meal.
Lu Qing also said it didn't matter.
Chi Jiujiu thought of the starry sky rain formation that Shen Mojin had set up for her when she first came to the world of cultivation, so she chose a private room with the theme of "Starry Sky".
As soon as you enter the private room, you feel as if you are really under the starry sky, with bright stars and moonlight like water, and the atmosphere is perfect.
This store has put a lot of thought into its decoration.
As soon as Chi Jiujiu sat down in the private room, she teased Lu Heng, "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be so famous in South City. Even the waiters at the hot pot restaurant know you."
Lu Heng walked with his slender legs and sat next to Lu Qing. He adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and looked at Chi Jiujiu who was sitting opposite him with a half-smile. "It won't be long before Mr. Chi's name will spread throughout South City."
Mr. Chi?
Such a young woman is actually the chairman, and President Lu seems to respect President Chi very much.
The waiter concealed his inner shock and handed the menu to the three people, "Mr. Lu, please take a look at what you three would like to eat."
Lu Heng handed the menu to Chi Jiujiu, "Mr. Chi, choose."
Chi Jiujiu pushed the menu to Lu Qing, "Senior Brother Lu chose the restaurant, so please choose."
Lu Qing did not refuse.
In order to cater to everyone's taste, he chose the most comprehensive nine-square mixed soup base.
After choosing the base of the hot pot, Lu Qing handed the menu to Chi Jiujiu, "Miss Jiujiu, please choose the dishes first. After you choose, my uncle and I will look at the other dishes and add them."
Chi Jiujiu was too lazy to push the button and let her choose. As usual, she ordered the most expensive ingredients on the menu, including the regular ones such as tripe, beef tendon, premium fatty beef, shrimp balls, and cuttlefish balls.
Seafood, such as king crab, abalone, and lobster.
Mushrooms, such as bamboo fungus and enoki mushrooms.
There is actually fish tofu pudding?
Fish tofu pudding served with special chopped pepper sauce is delicious and her favorite.
Chi Jiujiu ordered three different flavors of fish tofu pudding without hesitation.
Chi Jiujiu said, "Okay, I've ordered everything I wanted to order. Mr. Lu, Senior Brother Lu, please take a look at the dishes you like."
Lu Heng glanced at the menu and handed it to Lu Qing, "I'm out of it, Xiaoqing, take a look."
Lu Qing ordered a bottle of drink, as well as two appetizers: spicy shredded tripe and smashed cucumber, and then handed the menu to the waiter.
"Okay, please wait a moment!" The waiter picked up the menu and looked at the full list of dishes with a bright smile.
After the waiter left, Chi Jiujiu glanced at her phone, her expression suddenly changing. She said to Lu Heng and Lu Qing, "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."
