    Although Wu Ke knew that the self-warming cup should be worth a lot of money, she didn't have an accurate idea of ??its true value.  But the utensils from the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty are different. Under the influence of his father since he was a child, Wu Ke clearly knows the preciousness of the porcelain from the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty. It is also a treasure that antique collectors flock to. Because the quantity is rare, the value of the porcelain pieces is  It's not cheap, let alone a complete device. As mentioned before, even if it's hundreds of millions, there's nothing surprising.  ¡°And such a priceless treasure was actually bought by her boyfriend for thousands of pounds. It¡¯s incredible when you think about it. This is a shocking leak in the antique world.  It was a self-warming cup and a pen washer from the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty. These two priceless treasures were placed in a safe in the hotel that looked safe but was actually not very safe. Wu Ke felt very frightened just thinking about it.  Seeing Wu Ke frowning from time to time, how could Chu Chen not understand what she was thinking? He comforted her with a smile: "Okay, don't think too much. The security of this hotel has a good reputation among customers. How can it be?"  As soon as we arrived, there were thieves! If that were the case, how unlucky would it be for us, and if we were really so unlucky, how could we buy these two treasures? If you are really worried, then let's not go to dinner.  Just stay in the hotel and deposit the things in the bank tomorrow morning. "Wu Ke actually knew that she was overthinking, but her mind couldn't stop thinking. She said coquettishly: "I'm just afraid of losing things!" Chu Chen laughed.  He said: "If you can fall into the sewer while walking, why don't you go out?" "You can say some unlucky words, but you are not allowed to say them next time!" Wu Ke spat, and then said: "Achen, what are you going to do?  Why don't you teach me about antiques? " "What? You also want to pick up antiques?" Chu Chen knew that Wu Ke had not always been interested in antiques, so he became a little curious when he heard her say this.  "Am I so superficial?" Wu Ke rolled his eyes at him: "I just think that in addition to having profound historical and cultural heritage, antiques can also explore the mysteries left over from history. It's interesting to think about it." "  That's right! After returning to China, I will send you some information first, but you should focus on your studies now. When you return to China, I will teach you systematically, how about it? " Chu Chen said happily.  He was afraid that Wu Ke would have a hot idea because he saw him pick up the leak twice. Such interest would not last long, but now it seems that Wu Ke has his own ideas, which is undoubtedly the best.  .  Wu Ke nodded obediently and agreed: "Yeah. Okay!"  The place for today's treat is a very famous local western restaurant.  Although Chu Chen is very familiar with the etiquette of Western food, he actually doesn't like eating Western food. Not only does it take a long time to wait for Western food, but the quantity of Western food seems to be cumbersome, so he who likes to eat happily can't adapt to it at all, and  He doesn't like the taste of Western food either.  For various reasons, Chu Chen has no love for Western food.  But this time it was a dinner treat after all. Mina had already said in advance that she would have a big meal at the Western restaurant where they were now, so now she could only follow the guest's wishes.  Soon after the two arrived, Wu Ke¡¯s classmates came over. In fact, they were the three girls they met at the door of the bar that day.  In addition to Mina, the other two girls are also oriental, one is named Selina, who is also from mainland China, and the other is named Qiao Xi.  He is from Xiangjiang.  These three girls are also very beautiful. Mina is blond and has long legs that are very eye-catching. She also has a graceful, plump and charming figure, which is not far behind those foreign supermodels.  As for Selina and Josie.  The former looks like a lady, but from time to time her carefree and wild beauty is revealed.  Qiao Qian is just the opposite. She is like a little girl, and she has a baby voice, which can easily make men feel protective.  These three beauties each have their own styles, plus Wu Ke, who is even cuter and more charming than them. They are also a beautiful sight in the university, and they are often pursued and harassed by crazy bees and butterflies.  However, these four girls have always been honest with these people and have never agreed to the pursuit of any man. Over time, many people in the school believe that these four girls must be lesbians. Until now, unless they are concerned about this  Unbeknownst to them, few men would pursue them anymore.  Chu Chen was also surprised by this at first. Wu Ke did this because he liked him. It is impossible for other people to have sweethearts who are far away like Wu Ke, right?  Later, after listening to Wu Ke¡¯s explanation, he realized that it turned out that Qiao Qian¡¯s family had a strict upbringing, and she had been taught since childhood that she could only talk after graduation.?Friends, while Selina has no love for foreigners and wants to talk about it later. As for Mina, she really has a lesbian tendency.  Fortunately, Mina just has a tendency to be lesbian, otherwise Chu Chen would really not dare to let Wu Ke live in Mina's house.  Youdao is a drama with three women. Now with four women, it can be said to be a big drama. In addition, the three of them kept asking Wu Ke about taboo topics, which dragged Chu Chen into the water and made Chu Chen blush.  I couldn't stand it.  Now Chu Chen really wants to thank Mina for choosing a Western restaurant to eat. He can't speak too brazenly, otherwise these women will go crazy, and even if his strength is off the charts, he will have no choice but to run away.  Fortunately, when the food was served, the three girls finally calmed down, which made Chu Chen feel relieved.  After the meal, Chu Chen asked for tea and dessert again. Perhaps because they were full and full, the girls stopped making trouble lazily.  "By the way, Chu, what's your business?" Mina asked after happily eating a piece of cake.  Chu Chen simply replied: "I am mainly engaged in the antique and jade jewelry business." In foreign countries, generally those who do antique business have small assets. In addition, in the eyes of ordinary people, the jewelry business can only be done by wealthy people.  , so Mina suddenly said: "Wow, no wonder you are so rich!" Chu Chen smiled slightly, but he was not modest. Foreigners like to be straightforward. If you are modest in front of foreigners, they will have the illusion that they  If you can¡¯t say it yourself, then it must be bad, so modesty also needs to be tailored to local conditions.  When Selina heard that Chu Chen was in the jade business, she rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Chu, since you are in the jade jewelry business, can you help me take a look at the pendant I bought?"  Before Chu Chen could respond, Mina complained: "Oh, Selina, can you stop speaking your country's language? I can't even understand what you are talking about!" After Chu Chen nodded in agreement, he explained with a smile.  Said: "Selena asked me to help her identify a piece of jade." Seeing that Chu Chen agreed, Selina happily took out the pendant she mentioned from her chest. Originally, the neckline of her clothes was relatively low, plus  The front was quite large, and the way she took out the pendant from her chest made Chu Chen blush.  "Selena, you are going to die, can't you be more reserved!" Wu Ke said speechlessly.  Selina chuckled and said, "Just think of it as the reward I paid. Ellie, you won't be jealous of me, right?" "You big-headed idiot!" Wu Ke also knew Selina's character, and sometimes she would be carefree.  There are some people who don't care about it, which makes people laugh or cry.  But this made Chu Chen feel a little embarrassed. After all, it was something a girl put on her chest. If she just got it in her hand, she would feel a bit strange. Moreover, her girlfriend was still around, which made him pick it up now.  No, not even if you don¡¯t answer.  Wu Ke also understood Chu Chen's dilemma, so he took out a napkin and put the pendant on the napkin before letting Chu Chen get it.  Selina smiled and didn't care, sitting there waiting for Chu Chen's appraisal results.  Chu Chen picked up the pendant and took a look. Unexpectedly, it was actually a glass pendant filled with emerald green gold and jade. There were goldfish carved on the surface, as if they were swimming with their tails wagging, which was quite interesting.  Because fish has the same pronunciation as "surplus", which is a metaphor for wealth and surplus, people in the world like this theme, and the utensils carved with this theme are called "gold and jade".  ¡°Just based on his experience, he knew at a glance that this was not a pure natural glass jadeite. After looking at it with a magnifying glass and a strong flashlight, his judgment was confirmed.  "Selena, I wonder how much it cost to buy this golden and jade pendant?" Chu Chen asked.  Selina replied: "I saw it at the flea market in London two years ago and it was very beautiful, so I bought it for a thousand pounds. Josie said it was glass jade, and she told me to buy it."  I made a profit, isn¡¯t this jade grown from glass?¡± Chu Chen secretly shook his head. No wonder ordinary people would say that women and children make the most money in the world. Judging from Selina¡¯s appearance, she probably doesn¡¯t know much about jade.  I just thought it was beautiful, so I spent 15,000 to buy it.  "This is indeed glass jade, but it is not purely natural. This kind of jade is called B in our industry." Selina was happy at first, and then she was surprised. She said with a sad face, "What is B?"  Goods? Does that mean that my pendant is worthless?¡± ¡°First of all, it¡¯s jade,¡± Chu Chen explained, ¡°In terms of texture and water quality.  It is said that they are all excellent glass jadeite, but because there are black spots or other impurities inside, it greatly affects the viewing quality and reduces the value. ¡± ¡°Therefore.Some merchants use strong chemical solutions to corrode and remove these impurities. The remaining holes are filled with glue, added with color, and then waxed and polished to become B-grade jadeite that looks good.  This kind of B-grade jade is easy to identify. You can see the difference with a magnifying glass.  " Selina took a look at the magnifying glass. It was indeed as Chu Chen said. There were several places that were obviously different from the ones next to her. Her expression suddenly became depressed.
