The antiques we received this time totaled 200 pieces.
Among them are 43 pieces of porcelain of various sizes.
56 paintings and calligraphy works, 19 ancient books, and several jade and gemstone seals.
After Hou Yongxian and the others left, Gu Wei picked up the professional equipment and excitedly studied and played with it for a long time.
All things considered, he currently possesses a considerable amount of valuable items.
He could easily make tens of millions just by casually taking a few items out to sell.
But we don't need the money right now, so we won't make any rash moves.
Originally, Gu Wei wanted to look at and buy a house in the modern world.
However, prices have fallen, and the transaction rate is not high.
Many investors buy when prices are rising and avoid buying when prices are falling.
He was also worried that if he bought it, he would be ripped off and become the one left holding the bag.
Since we already own a villa, there's no harm in waiting a little longer.
Because I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket.
Gu Wei selectively kept a large portion of the antiques from the 1980s.
The next day, after breakfast, he brought the rest back to the modern world.
In modern times, the eve of the Lunar New Year 24 years ago has passed, but it is still in the first month of the lunar calendar.
The restaurant was closed during the Chinese New Year holiday.
Gu Wei gave his employees a holiday until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Song Daming took Chu Sitong back to his hometown, but they encountered some unexpected situations. He had already informed her a few days ago that they would be back later.
The morning always flies by.
Gu Wei felt that after arranging the antiques in the storage room, taking a shower, and watching a post-apocalyptic movie for a while, it was almost noon.
He rubbed his slightly hungry stomach.
I chose to go out rather than order takeout.
As for his mode of transportation, Gu Wei chose the sports car in the garage that he had only driven a few times since he bought it.
The restaurant has been open for more than five months and business has been very good.
After deducting all expenses, the money earned is more than enough to buy a sports car.
When they arrived at the store, Jian Fei and the others immediately came to greet them.
"President Gu."
"Hello, Mr. Gu."
"..."
Gu Wei only came to say hello on the seventh day of the lunar new year when the store opened, and hasn't come since.
He casually glanced around the lobby and found that the occupancy rate was quite high.
Without lingering, they went straight upstairs.
Jian Fei followed closely behind him and whispered, "Mr. Gu, your friend surnamed Zhong is dining at Huashan Hall."
Gu Wei raised an eyebrow slightly. He hadn't expected Zhong Xiang to have returned from abroad. He casually asked, "How many are in your party?"
“Five,” Jian Fei answered softly.
Gu Wei nodded, indicating that he understood.
After the two went upstairs, when they passed by Huashan Hall, the door to the private room was half open.
Gu Wei glanced inside and his eyes met those of Zhong Xiang, who was sitting directly opposite the door.
Zhong Xiang immediately smiled, stood up, said something to his friend at the table, and walked out.
"Brother Zhong, when did you get back?"
Zhong Xiang chuckled and said, "I've been back for several days now. Brother, we're really on the same wavelength; we met up without even having to contact each other."
"Yes, I haven't been to the store for quite a few days. And then I ran into you as soon as I came in."
Gu Wei also remarked that it was quite a coincidence.
As he spoke, he carefully examined Zhong Xiang and noticed that the man had gained some weight, but his hair had turned quite a bit white.
Zhong Xiang patted Gu Wei's arm. "How was your New Year? You look great, even more handsome than before."
"That's great. Brother Zhong, you look good too. Spending the New Year with your son, how's it going?"
In the past, ever since her grandfather passed away, Gu Wei dreaded holidays and festivals.
Because one misses their loved ones even more during festivals.
When others are reunited with their families, he, all alone, appears even more lonely and desolate.
But things are different now.
"It's alright. As long as that brat doesn't make me angry, that's better than anything else."
Zhong Xiang had known Gu Wei for more than half a year and knew a bit about his family situation, so they didn't talk much about this topic.
Gu Wei glanced at the corridor. There were waiters and waitresses standing outside the door, and Zhou Wenyi coming out of the large office. It wasn't a good place to chat and catch up.
"Brother Zhong, after you finish eating, would you like to come to my office for a bit?"
Zhong Xiang laughed and said, "Great! That's exactly what I was thinking. It's been a long time since we last met, and we have a lot to talk about."
After Zhong Xiang returned to his private room, Gu Wei headed towards his office.
Zhou Wenyi, dressed in a professional suit, stood there gracefully, exuding a more capable and efficient air than when they first met.
She smiled and stared at Gu Wei. After he approached, she said softly, "Brother Gu, Sister Jian is in a hurry to deal with her work. She asked me to ask what you would like to eat for lunch so that the kitchen can prepare it."
Gu Wei knew that lunchtime was peak season and the kitchen must be incredibly busy.
"Just make a few simple ones."
Zhou Wenyi blinked. "Then I'll let them do it."
Gu Wei hummed in agreement.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds.
Zhou Wenyi, embarrassed, gave in first, turning her head slightly to avoid eye contact.
Gu Wei smiled faintly.
He walked to his office door, and as he opened it, he could still see Zhou Wenyi standing there out of the corner of his eye.
Watching Gu Wei walk in, Zhou Wenyi bit her lower lip and turned back to her office.
Although Gu Wei hadn't been here for a few days, it was clear that someone was still cleaning the office.
The desk was neat and clean, and several potted plants exuded vitality.
Gu Wei took off his coat and hung it on a tree-shaped coat rack.
