Chapter 119: Returning the Favor (Second Update)
"As soon as you moved to this office, this paperweight was delivered?"
Xiao Fan asked.
"Yes."
Lu Hong nodded.
This paperweight was originally sent by his so-called friend to congratulate him on his promotion, and the meaning of patting the sycophants is particularly obvious. How many true friends do today's officials have? There are not a few people who drink and meat.
Lu Hong has a high position and a noble status, and it is reasonable for many people to compete with him to pat him on the back.
This bronze dragon-shaped paperweight does not look good, the patina is mottled and very old. Lu Hong mainly took a fancy to its flying dragon shape, and felt that it was quite meaningful, and heard that it was something used by Song Huizong, so he stayed in the office.
Song Huizong was a famous faint monarch in history, who lost his country and lost his life, and his evening was bleak. But in any case, he is also a righteous son of heaven, having been an emperor for twenty-five years.
Such an old object used by the emperor is very valuable, and it is also very compatible with Lu Hong's identity.
Xiao Fan picked up the dragon-shaped paperweight, slowly walked to the window, and looked at the sunlight repeatedly.
Lu Hong asked, "Xiao Fan, are you still proficient in antique appreciation?" ”
This paperweight, Lu Hong also once asked a master friend in the antique world to appreciate it personally, and it was determined that it was genuine from the Song Dynasty, but it was difficult to determine whether it really flowed out of the royal family. But judging from the two flying dragon patterns, eighty percent are real royal treasures. Although the Northern Song Dynasty did not have a strict legal system and implemented a high-pressure policy like the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the science of the monarchs and ministers was greatly developed, and the people's thinking was extremely strict from the Song Dynasty. Ordinary officials and civilians generally dare not use dragon-shaped utensils. If someone really reports it, it's a crime.
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "I understand a little." Uncle Lu. This dragon-shaped paperweight is indeed from the Northern Song Dynasty, and there is no doubt about its authenticity. And. It should also be a royal item. ”
Xiao Fan felt a faint supreme aura from the dragon-shaped paperweight.
Despite its age, this smell has long since faded. If there is nothing, but how clever the Wuji Gate technique is, Xiao Fan, as the sixty-fourth generation of the real person in charge, has a high attainment in the technique, which is far from being comparable to ordinary antique connoisseurs. This supreme aura can still be felt.
However, it is difficult to determine whether it is from the hands of Emperor Daojun.
Since Lu Hong's friend said that it was for Emperor Daojun's royal use, there must be a reason. Xiao Fan has never been arrogant. I don't think I'm at the top of my game in the field of antique appreciation.
There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are heavens outside the sky.
Shijie is big, and there are many outstanding geniuses. A very small number of gifted people have spent their entire lives immersed in the field of antique appreciation, and their antique appreciation attainments are higher than Xiao Fan's, which is natural.
There's nothing strange about that.
No. 1 in the world!
It's easier said than done.
Even if it is a competitive sport, there is absolutely no one who can stay the first shijie for the rest of their lives. A level that no one else has surpassed.
Xiao Fan sighed softly and said, "Uncle Lu, Emperor Daojun is certainly a faint monarch, and the evening scene is bleak. Died in a foreign land, turned into ashes, after all, he was a serious emperor. Twenty-five years of true destiny. The things he used were placed in the position of the strange and strange creatures. Combine with the banner behind you, a Founding Monarch. A king of the dead country, plus Master Mu, just constitutes a complete small environment. You sit in this small environment every day, and you are basically isolated from the outside world. No matter how good the feng shui layout of the whole office is, it will not have the slightest effect on you, and the qi of good fortune will not enter at all. This kind of repressive force is really difficult to resist. ”
Lu Hong couldn't help but be stunned, and after a while, he said in a hurry: "Could it be that the problem is here?" ”
Xiao Fan nodded slightly.
Looking at Lu Hong's face, although he is rich and noble, he is a noble appearance of a first-class official residence, but no matter what, he can't resist the suppression of the two supremes.
There is a difference between monarchs and ministers.
The gap between this is not a star and a half.
"Uncle Lu, this paperweight can't be used, I suggest you better collect it."
"Forget it, I don't need it, I'll give it to you...... Ah, Xiao Fan, I have no ill intentions. Since you are proficient in Feng Shui, you should be fine, right? This thing definitely won't get in your way, will it? ”
Lu Hong said casually, immediately realized that something was wrong, and explained a few words tightly.
Although it is a genuine antique and a royal thing, it is an obstacle to people, and he can't use it himself, but he has to give it to Xiao Fan, which can't be said. Lu Hong didn't think about it and blurted out.
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Uncle Lu, this gift is valuable enough, really give it to me?" ”
"Of course, of course, I really send it. If you like it, take it. ”
Lu Hong said in a loud voice. Now in Lu Hong's eyes, this dragon-shaped paperweight is simply a catastrophe, and he can't wait to throw it out immediately, never wanting to see it again.
"Okay, then I'm welcome, I'll keep it for the time being. When Uncle Lu wants to go back, I will return it. ”
Lu Hong's eyes suddenly widened and said, "Xiao Fan, what are you talking about?" Did you slap Uncle Lu in the face? Since it was given to you, it is yours, where is the reason to go back? ”
Even if this is an antiquity that can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, Lu Hong doesn't care.
Xiao Fan found out the cause of the illness for him, and he should have been paid. It's just that Lu Hong can't decide whether Xiao Fan will accept his money or things, and now give him this dragon-shaped paperweight, which should be rewarded. Lu Hong hopes that this thing can be sold at a good price.
The higher the price of the dragon-shaped paperweight, doesn't it mean that he is getting paid?
Minister Lu is not short of money.
Xiao Fan smiled and thanked Lu Hong.
This dragon-shaped paperweight, Xiao Fan estimates, the market price is at least more than 200,000. However, Xiao Fan didn't plan to really make a move, there are many antique treasures in the underground secret room of Zhishuiguan. In the past few years alone, Xiao Fan followed his master to find many treasures in the antique market. As the antique market matures in China, the prices of the objects that were found at the beginning have long since skyrocketed.
Strictly speaking, Brother Xiao is not bad for money.
Xiao Fan planned to give this dragon-shaped paperweight to Xiao Tian. When he persuaded Xiao Tian to go to Hongshan Village to be the party secretary, he asked him to take the paperweight with him. Xiao Tian is the authentic Supreme Son of Heaven, rich and noble, and the royal items are given to him to use, there are no taboos, but he can further prosper his Son of Heaven.
As for Lu Hong, he can't afford it.
Xiao Fan took the paperweight in his hand, and carefully inspected the entire office, even the bathroom and lounge were not leaked, and he did not find anything else wrong, so he slowly paced back to the hospitality sofa and sat down.
Lu Hong also hurriedly sat down to accompany him.
Unconsciously, Lu Hong was already convinced of Xiao Fan.
Because he originally believed in Feng Shui, Xiao Fan was right, but Lu Hong didn't believe it.
"Uncle Lu, I'll check your pulse again."
"Okay."
Lu Hong hurriedly stretched out his left hand, placed it on the coffee table, and rolled up his sleeves.
Xiao Fan stretched out three fingers and gently put them on Lu Hong's pulse wrist, and after a little investigation, the rich yin and evil qi was still entangled in Lu Hong's body. This is very normal, the banner has not been removed, the dragon-shaped paperweight is still in his hand, and the feng shui pattern of the entire office is still the same. Besides, even if Lu Hong removed the banner immediately, it would take a while to recondense the auspicious qi and gradually fill the entire room.
All these yin and evil qi in his body must be dissolved, and he can't do it without half a year's effort.
Four years of siltation and six months of desiltation are already very fast.
Xiao Fan took his fingers back and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Lu, although the cause has been found out and can be resolved, it will take a little time, maybe several months." During this time, your headache will gradually heal. However, the first two months will still be frequent. ”
"Two months?"
Lu Hong hissed and gasped.
That kind of headache, let alone two months, even once, he is not willing to try again.
"Xiao Fan, isn't there any quick fix?"
Lu Hong asked tentatively, looking at Xiao Fan's eyes, full of expectation.
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Uncle Lu, it's not that there are no shortcuts. In this way, I will prescribe a prescription for you, and you can take the medicine as it is, which can effectively reduce the pain caused by headaches. Stick to it for three months, and after that, it won't be too uncomfortable. After half a year, it is basically cured, and there should be no recurrence. ”
"Okay, I'll get you a pen and paper, you write your ......"
Minister Lu didn't care about his noble status at the moment, stood up, walked quickly to the desk, took a pen and paper, and handed it to Xiao Fan with both hands, all a little impatient.
Xiao Fan picked up the pen and paper and waved it.
Lu Hong took it and looked at it, but he didn't understand it very clearly, so he didn't ask anymore at the moment, folded it, and put it in his pocket preciously. This thing, it is expected that Xiao Fan will not be deceived by each other.
This is to be seen in the real chapter.
After putting away the prescription, Lu Hong was relaxed, and said with a smile: "Oh, Xiao Fan, I didn't expect you to be an all-rounder, a doctor of astrology, proficient in everything, not bad, great." ”
Xiao Fan smiled and picked up the cup to drink tea.
Lu Hong was an understanding person, and continued to ask with a smile: "Xiao Fan, I see that your father, Minister Xiao, often overworks for work, and his health is not so good. Since you are proficient in medical skills, why don't you also prescribe a prescription for him to recuperate? ”
Xiao Fan replied with a smile: "Uncle Lu, I also prescribed the recipe for cooking, which I also gave my father." You have been old friends for many years, and you know very well that his character is that he is too serious and persistent in his work, and we can't listen to him no matter how we persuade him. As a child, you can only be anxious in your heart, and you really can't do anything about him. Uncle Lu, if you have time, help me persuade him, work matters, you still have to go with the flow, too strong to do. ”
Lu Hong nodded solemnly and said, "Yes." Xiao Fan, don't worry, I'll have a good chat with your father in the past two days. At work, everyone cooperates with each other and can always find a solution. ”
"Yes, Uncle Xiexie Lu."
Xiao Fan owed his body and said sincerely. (To be continued......)
