Chapter 1050: Gu Tianyang returns the favor
There was a car parked outside the door, Su Tao sat in the back seat first, and then Gu Tianyang followed.
Gu Tianyang's eyes fell on the medical box that Su Tao was carrying, and said with a smile: "Your box is an antiquity, even if it is not priceless, it is definitely collectible." ”
Su Tao explained with a smile: "Ancestral things. I didn't think you had any research on this?"
Gu Tianyang smiled modestly, "I like to study history, although I haven't seen anything like it, but from the craftsmanship and simplicity of this carving, you can see that it is extraordinary, a few friends I made an appointment with are antique lovers, and I can let them study the origin later." ”
Su Tao knew that Gu Tianyang was deliberately chatting with him closely, the medical box was indeed an antique, but with Gu Tianyang's net worth, he would not be a guy who coveted his own food.
Coming to the Zuixian Pavilion Restaurant, Su Tao felt a special feeling as soon as he entered the door, this is not a place to eat, but a place for some elegant people to gather, there are folding fans, calligraphy and paintings, ancient books, and more importantly, it is not fake, it is all genuine, the cheapest ornament is worth a lot of money, although his medical box is of great significance, but I am afraid that it can only be regarded as medium here.
Su Tao couldn't help but think of Gu Yin in the island country, the furnishings of this restaurant were at least half the value of Gu Yin's treasure room. It's just that Gu Yin's treasure room is not shown to the public, and the restaurant is open to the public, so it can be seen that the identity of this owner is at least the same level as Gu Yin.
There were already three people sitting in the box, and Gu Tianyang enthusiastically helped Su Tao introduce them one by one.
Sitting in the center is the owner of this restaurant, named Liu Heng, the person on his right is named Cao Dongyang, and the person on his left is called Du Liushan.
Su Tao has a little impression of Du Liushan, this person often participates in CCTV's "Huaxia Treasure" program, as a special guest, screening the authenticity of antiques, telling the origin and hidden value of antiques, although most of the program is recorded, which has the content designated by the choreographer to join, but Du Liushan's eloquence, expressiveness, and often self-exertion, which adds a lot to the program.
It all comes down to a real knowledge of antiques and the ability to improvise new stories that no one knows.
As for Cao Dongyang, Gu Tianyang didn't introduce too much, but Su Tao knew that he could become good friends with Gu Tianyang, and his origin and identity were absolutely amazing.
Liu Heng has a hearty personality, he needs such a character to do the catering industry, he took the initiative to shake hands with Su Tao, and said with a smile: "This is the famous Su Shen Doctor, I didn't expect to be so young, he is really a hero." ”
"Boss Liu, you have an overreputation!" Su Tao smiled modestly, "I am a young doctor, and I can't afford to be a miracle doctor." ”
After Su Tao and Gu Tianyang sat down, Du Liushan poured Su Tao a cup of tea and asked with a smile: "There is one thing I want to confirm with you personally, it is said that you once were at the house of Commissioner Zhao, and through the shape of the calligraphy and painting, you concluded that the calligraphy and painting was not actually written by Commissioner Zhao's own hand. ”
Su Tao was a little surprised, he didn't expect such a secret thing to be known to them, according to reason, Commissioner Zhao has a special identity, and the time he treated him was confidential and would not be leaked.
Du Liushan's mention of this incident also proves that they are clear-sighted and have their own news channels in high-level circles.
Su Tao said with a smile: "That time was also a coincidence. If the copyist of the calligraphy and painting was not seriously ill, I would not have been able to tell. ”
Du Liushan patted his thigh lightly and exclaimed: "This is a good story! There is such an allusion, in another hundred years, the calligraphy and painting will definitely be priceless." ”
Su Tao was slightly stunned, then smiled, three sentences do not leave the bank, from this detail can be seen that Du Liushan is obsessed with the antique industry, and it is no wonder that he has become a rare top expert in the antique appreciation industry.
Cao Dongyang's gaze kept falling on Su Tao's medical box.
Gu Tianyang smiled: "Lao Cao, you seem to be very concerned about this medical box!"
Cao Dongyang doesn't like to speak, his personality is more introverted, and he nodded slightly.
Su Tao was also free and easy, and brought the medical box to Cao Dongyang's side, and said with a smile: "It's not a treasure, please take a closer look." ”
Cao Dongyang didn't smile, slowly took out a magnifying glass from his pocket, looked at the medical box as if no one was around, and soon immersed himself in it, Gu Tianyang pulled Su Tao to the side, and said with a smile: "Lao Cao is this character, he won't let go if he catches a good thing, he estimates that it will take a long time to study, let's eat first." ”
Liu Heng shook the bell, and after a while, the waiter came in to take the dishes.
Liu Heng saw Du Liushan and Cao Dongyang talking to each other in the medical box, and said, "Go with them, let's talk while eating." ”
Liu Heng is very talkative, and has a wide range of contacts, and he also knows Su Tao, so he took the initiative to mention Song Sichen. He said with a smile: "Song Lao is really a living immortal, more than ten years ago when he was eating in a restaurant, there was a patient who had a heart attack, he rejuvenated and saved the patient in time." Afterwards, I personally came to thank me, but Song Lao didn't take my money, and I was still a little angry at that time. Later, I inquired and found out that Song Lao never cared about these mundane things. ”
Su Tao said with a smile: "Master Song is indeed a respectable character. ”
Gu Tianyang praised beside him: "Expert Su, your medical products are also very good. ”
Liu Heng smiled and said, "Otherwise, Brother Tianyang would not have made such detailed arrangements for your affairs." ”
When Su Tao heard Liu Heng say this, he suddenly beat a drum in his heart, secretly wondering if there was something special about today's dinner?
Gu Tianyang deliberately sold Guan Zi and smiled: "Don't worry, it's a good thing!"
Su Tao was a little anxious in his heart, he hated being hidden from others the most, but he still pretended to be calm and calm on the surface.
After three glasses of wine, Cao Dongyang's eyes finally left the medical box, and the corners of his mouth surfaced with an almost imperceptible arc, and he exclaimed: "This medical box is already a national treasure, it should be something left over from the imperial doctor of the Tang Dynasty, it is so well maintained, and what is even more surprising is that you carry it with you like this, and you are not afraid of being robbed." ”
Su Tao hurriedly smiled and said, "Just a few of you experts can see Mingtang, who can understand the value of ordinary people? Most people think it's just a broken box." ”
Cao Dongyang shook his head, put the magnifying glass in his pocket, and sighed: "I still have to protect it, this is a national treasure!"
Du Liushan laughed, "Lao Cao, you don't want to persuade Xiao Su to hand over this medical box to the state, right?"
Cao Dongyang glared at Du Liushan angrily, and said angrily: "This is his personal belongings, how could I do that?"
Gu Tianyang leaned into Su Tao's ear and said softly: "Dongyang is the vice minister of the Ministry of Culture, who is responsible for the approval of the establishment of a national museum. ”
Su Tao's eyes lit up, and then he understood the reason why Gu Tianyang set up a dinner today.
Cao Dongyang nodded at Su Tao and said softly: "I have already read the project book of your application to build a museum of traditional Chinese medicine in Hanzhou. Originally, I planned to reject the plan, which is a national museum, and needs to improve the materials, such as a fixed site and exhibition rooms and collection storage places that meet the regulations, professional and technical personnel who match the scale and function, a stable source of funds for running the museum, and facilities, systems and emergency plans to ensure the personal safety of the audience. ”
Su Tao hurriedly nodded and said, "Minister Cao, what you said is that this is indeed my inconsiderate thinking. ”
Liu Heng waved his hand beside him, laughed and said, "You, don't be bluffed by Lao Cao." He is actually not such a stubborn person, as long as the plan is passable and he can sign it with one eye closed. ”
Cao Dongyang glared at Liu Heng, but he was not very angry, and said, "Am I so casual?"
Su Tao knew that they were joking with each other, and Cao Dongyang was born with a bitter and hateful face, giving people the illusion of seriousness.
Du Liushan said with a smile: "Okay, Tianyang is our brother, it is rare for him to ask you for help, you have to give this face! Moreover, Xiao Su is a reliable person at first glance, and things can't go wrong." ”
Cao Dongyang nodded, and said to Su Tao in a solemn tone: "The country has indeed been considering the protection of traditional Chinese medicine culture in recent years, and if you do this, it will be an extremely meaningful thing." ”
Su Tao hurriedly straightened up and promised: "Please rest assured Minister Cao, I will definitely not let you down." ”
Cao Dongyang showed a smile at this time, and his face instantly bloomed like a chrysanthemum, Su Tao secretly wondered why Cao Dongyang likes to keep a straight face, and his smile is more ugly than crying, but judging from Su Tao's ability to recognize people, Cao Dongyang is a rare and upright official.
Next, the five of them chatted while eating, and to Gu Tianyang's surprise, although Su Tao was not very old, he had a lot of goods in his stomach and a variety of reading types, no matter what they communicated, Su Tao could say a few words, and he actually integrated into this small circle that is difficult for outsiders to integrate into.
Gu Tianyang sighed, no wonder Gu Yin attaches so much importance to Su Tao, this is indeed a talent.
In other words, ordinary young people, communicating with these four people, there will definitely be an obvious generation gap, and the content they talk about is mainly historical anecdotes, and they are not superficial talks, they are all about the details cut out of the history books, and the anecdotes of some celebrities.
If you just swallow dates and read a few history books, and you can't say a few words, you have to be exposed.
Su Tao talked about some wild history gossip, and he said it brilliantly, which made Du Liushan have a deep interest in Su Tao, and he couldn't wait to regard him as a confidant. These contents are all medical cases mentioned in the "Imperial Doctor Sutra", and there are many corroborations with the historical books circulating on the market, which can be regarded as Su Tao's advantage.
Du Liushan made an appointment with Su Tao at the dinner table, and if he had time to be a guest at his tea house, he would definitely entertain him well.
Du Liushan and Tong Zuoqing have similar status in the Yanjing circle, and they both operate teahouses and miracle doctors, so in the Yanjing antique circle, there is a saying that "Master Du and Uncle Tong must be invited to drink tea and gather together", and the consciousness is that Du and Tong are the best at talking and harmonizing the atmosphere.
However, Du Liushan prefers to make friends with literati and scholars, while Tong Zuoqing does not refuse to come from three sects and nine streams.
Su Tao knew that these three people were giving themselves face like this today, thanks to Gu Tianyang's recommendation.
Gu Tianyang helped himself solve the problem of the establishment of the Chinese Medicine Museum and the Tiansheng Bronze Man, which can be regarded as repaying himself for the favor of treating the ancient and stable ancient family.
