Lu Desheng said as he started to make tea.

He first used something like a spoon to scoop out some tea leaves from a box containing tea, put it in front of Liu Nan, and introduced to Liu Nan: "These are some of the best-quality Longjings in West Lake that I found when I went to Beijing this time. I wonder if Xiao Liu has any research on tea ceremony culture?"

"Tea Ceremony Culture?" Liu Nan shook his head. He grew up drinking boiled water since he was a child. He had no idea about things like tea.

"Haha, tea culture occupies a very important position in the history of the country, but young people nowadays like to drink beverages, and have forgotten a lot of things passed down by our ancestors."

After saying that, Lu Desheng put the tea into a pre-prepared purple clay pot, then picked up the boiling water around him that had been boiling on the alcohol lamp and poured it into the purple clay pot.

"This water is the active water from the mountains that I specially transported to someone. It is specially used to make this pot of tea. Today you have a good taste." Lu Desheng explained to Liu Nan while making tea.

After pouring all the boiling boiling water into the purple clay pot, Lu Desheng picked up a white bowl that had been prepared beside him and poured out all the water inside. Liu Nan looked at this scene and thought he wanted to give him a drink, so he picked it up directly.

"Hmm? Xiao Liu, what are you doing?" Lu Desheng asked in confusion.

"What are you doing? Isn't this water for drinking?" Liu Nan asked in confusion.

Hearing this, Lu Desheng's old face turned dark. He had now begun to doubt whether the pot of good tea he had prepared should be tasted by this boy who didn't know anything, but he did not say it out loud, but explained it to Liu Nan bit by bit.

"This was not for people to drink, but for washing tea, which was to bring the dust on the surface of the tea."

Liu Nan did not agree with this answer. This was really troublesome. Liu Nan was already very thirsty when he rushed over in a hurry, but now he saw that there was water, but he couldn't drink it. It was not uncomfortable.

Finally, after pouring another small pot of boiling water into the teacup, Lu Desheng picked up two small purple clay cups like wine cups and pushed them in front of Liu Nan.

"Okay, you can drink it this time, let's taste it." Lu Desheng said to Liu Nan.

"Oh." Liu Nan slowly lifted the small cup. At this time, there was still a hint of heat coming out. He wanted to drink it into his mouth in one gulp, but he was afraid it would be hot, so Liu Nan had to blow it. After the temperature of the water in the cup decreased, he put it into his mouth in one gulp.

When Lu Desheng, who was slowly standing by, saw Liu Nan drinking a cup of tea he had made with great effort, he wanted to go up and strangle Liu Nan to death.

The most hateful one is still behind. After drinking the tea in the cup, Liu Nan smacked Baba's lips, raised the quilt in his hand, and said to Lu Desheng: "Boss Lu, tea is good, but the cup is too small and it doesn't quench its thirst at all. Can you change to a larger cup and pour more?"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Lu Desheng, who was disturbed by Liu Nan, no longer had the mentality of tasting tea. After drinking a cup, he washed the tea sets and sat in front of Liu Nan again. This time his expression seemed much more serious, as if he had something to tell Liu Nan.

"Xiao Liu, I told you a few days ago that I came to me as an appraiser. I wonder what you are thinking about now?"

When Liu Nan heard this, he was cheered up. He came here for this time. As for the tea tasting in front, Liu Nan really had no interest at all.

"Haha, Boss Lu, I've already considered it, I promise to come here."

Hearing this, Lu Desheng nodded, took out a few pieces of paper from the bag beside him and handed it to Liu Nan.

"This is a contract I have drawn up, please take a look."

After Liu Nan took it, he slowly started looking at it.

"A monthly salary of 30,000?" Liu Nan was silently shocked.

"Come on a daily basis when you have something to do, and rest on a break every time?" continued shock.

...

It wasn't long, and after reading the contracts one by one, Liu Nan was speechless. This contract is the best contract that Liu Nan had ever seen. Not to mention that he didn't have to go to work for a long time every day, his monthly salary was 30,000. By the way, he fought hard for a game, and even if he won the championship, the prize was only about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Of course, this was not the prize money for the World Competition.

"Xiao Liu, let me be honest, the salary on this contract is much lower than that of Mr. Han. Although you beat him last time you bet, Mr. Han is famous after all. You should know that antiques are more concerned about the celebrity effect."

Liu Nan understood that fame is indeed more important than technology, just like the experts in the Forbidden City. As long as people say things are real, even if the thing is fake, it will become real. After all, no one can be more professional than others. Even if you say something opposite to others, the public will only believe others' things, not yours, so Liu Nan doesn't care about these things.

"I understand." Liu Nan looked at Lu Desheng and said.

"Yeah." Lu Desheng nodded.

He continued, "Xiao Liu, I'll come to you today. This is one thing, and another thing is that you may have to go out with me today and accept a challenge."

"Challenge? You have to accept the challenge as an appraiser?" Liu Nan didn't understand what Lu Desheng meant.

"Well, Zhangkou City is not just my antiques, but several. Originally, Mr. Han was holding on to the scene here, and their antique shops all agreed that we were the leader and the boss. However, when Mr. Han left, they were ready to move again. Recently, three slightly larger antique shops joined forces to hold a treasure appraisal exchange meeting and invited us. In fact, this treasure appraisal exchange meeting was to take this opportunity to re-certify who is the leader."

Liu Nan listened silently and said nothing.

"However, it is not difficult. The bosses of each antique shop will take an antique and ask the appraisers of several other antique shops to identify the authenticity. In the end, the person who guessed the most will decide them as the leading bosses in the antique shop in Zhangkou City."

"Yeah, I'll do my best." Liu Nan said after hearing this.

He was indeed not sure about this treasure appraisal exchange. If he just guessed the truth or falsehood, Liu Nan would definitely have no problem. However, if the situation happened when he made a bet with Mr. Han last time, it would be bad. He didn't believe that he had so much luck that he could even bump into a copy of Lu Zhiwei.

"Okay, you go home at noon and have some rest. In the afternoon, I will drive you there."

"Well, then I'll leave first." Liu Nan and Lu Desheng said goodbye and left here.

"Xiao Liu, I hope you can continue to surprise me." Lu Desheng said alone in the room.

...

After returning home, Liu Nan first observed the contract again, then found a carbon pen to sign it, and prepared to give it to Lu Desheng in the afternoon. Then he picked up the antique book and started to watch it bit by bit. In Liu Nan's words, this is a matter of being sharpened in the last battle and being too lazy.

I saw that at around 1:00 pm, I felt a protest sound coming from my belly. Liu Nan put down the book and took Xiaohu out for some food. As soon as I got home, I received a call from Lu Desheng.

"Hey, Xiao Liu, I'll get downstairs from your house."

"Okay." Liu Nan put on his clothes and went downstairs immediately.

Downstairs, Lu Desheng was still driving his Santana, looking at Liu Nan with a smile and said, "Xiao Liu, those people in the afternoon may cause you a lot of trouble, and they will even attack you with words. I hope you are ready."

"Well, don't worry." Liu Nan and Lu Desheng got into the car at the same time.

The car was driving on the road, and Liu Nan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked Lu Desheng: "Boss Lu, didn't you say in the morning that no one wanted to take something? I wonder what you were holding?"

Lu Desheng smiled mysteriously, let go of the steering wheel with his left hand and took off a string of bracelets from his right wrist and handed them to Liu Nan's hand.

This bracelet is made of red transparent beads, each of which is warm and smooth, crystal clear and extremely beautiful. However, when Liu Nan touched the bracelet with his left hand, he didn't feel it at all.

"This is a fake!" Liu Nan said to Lu Desheng who was driving.

"Haha, I knew this thing would not hurt you, but then those people's things will definitely be difficult to answer, you must be prepared." As Lu Desheng said that, he put the string in his hand again.

After driving on the road for about ten minutes, the car came to an outside door with a classical plaque with "Biyuanzhai". From the outside, it looked like a teahouse that drank tea in ancient times, but after entering the gate, it was a different world.

The solid wood floor is paved with wooden boards of the same color on the walls. Every few meters, there will be a Chinese painting or oil painting on the wall. There are many people in the hall, but they are all talking silently, for fear of affecting others.

Many women wearing Japanese kimonos shuttled through the lobby, holding long-mouthed kettles in their hands to pour tea and water for each guest. According to Liu Nan's judgment, this should be a teahouse.

A waiter saw someone coming in and immediately came to greet him and asked, "Did you make an appointment with both gentlemen?"

"Yes, it was the private room that your boss ordered." Lu Desheng said.

When the waitress heard this, her expression on her face became even more eager, and she immediately said to Lu Desheng: "It turns out that she is Mr. Ding's friend. Please follow me to the Tianzi Room on the second floor."
