Chapter 407 Top Appraiser

"good!"

After the words fell, Niu Taishan and Qiao Beidou gave a thumbs up, with approval on their faces:

"Brother Ye is really an honest person. This wine is indeed very bad to drink as you judged, because it was brewed by the shopkeeper Shaodong on behalf of his sick old father, but no one raised any objections."

"Many people find that the taste is not right, but they still think it is a problem with the season of the medicinal materials, and you are the first person to point out that the brewer's quality is not good."

Qiao Beidou exhaled the smell of alcohol: "We also invited many close friends to drink. After drinking, we asked them how they felt. Everyone said it was good."

Ye Tianlong smiled: "I was young and frivolous, but they were mature and polite."

"We know they were being polite."

Niu Taishan looked at Ye Tianlong with piercing eyes, as if he had discovered a gem: "But your honesty is more valuable than politeness."

Qiao Beidou threw the bottle of medicinal wine aside, and then took out a bottle of Wuliangye from under the table: "Yes, brother, we like your authenticity."

Ye Tianlong smiled politely and said, "Thank you, Mr. Niu and Mr. Qiao, for your compliments."

"Come on, come on, change the cup and try Lao Qiao's Wuliangye."

Niu Taishan personally took away Ye Tianlong's cup: "This is from the original factory, it is genuine."

Afterwards, the three of them laughed and drank Wuliangye, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. The three women and Canshou mostly ate vegetables.

"Brother Ye, let's have dinner together tonight for two purposes."

After drinking for three rounds, Niu Taishan let out a burst of hearty laughter and pulled up his chair to get closer to Ye Tianlong:

"First, I looked down on you and underestimated you. I wanted to say sorry. At the same time, I didn't know each other until we started fighting. I hope to make friends and have a meal to build up our relationship so that we can interact with each other more in the future."

"Secondly, Lao Qiao and I both admire you. We admire you from the bottom of our hearts, your courage, and your ability."

When Qiao Beidou also pulled up a chair and approached, Niu Taishan's expression became more solemn: "Old Qiao and I want to get you to do something together."

Ye Tianlong was slightly startled: "Invite me to work together? What to do?"

Qiao Beidou chuckled, picked up the tea and took a sip:

"Brother Ye's counterfeiting... oh, no, it's because of his first-class imitation ability and his first-class eye for identifying antiques. We are going to set up a top appraisal company to specialize in identifying antiques worth over 100 million. I hope you can join us and have fun."

Ye Tianlong opened his mouth wide: "An appraisal company?" He stared at Niu Taishan and asked, "Mr. Niu is a professional appraisal company."

Niu Taishan smiled and took the topic softly: "That's right. Nowadays, there are more and more unscrupulous traders, and the counterfeiting technology is becoming more and more powerful. The identification methods are far behind their level of counterfeiting."

"And in order to confuse the fake with the real thing, these people will destroy the real thing and mix it in to hide the truth."

"For example, a Ming Dynasty vase is worth up to five million."

Niu Taishan exhaled a long breath: "In order to make higher profits, they will divide this vase into two halves and merge them into the imitation vase to make two. In this way, they can sell it for 10 million."

"As for the vases they have processed, because there are real porcelain fragments, it is easy to be mistaken during the appraisal."

Ye Tianlong nodded: "I've heard of these, and there are even experts who can cut a Van Gogh painting into two pieces."

"Brother Ye is indeed not a mortal, these paths are so clear."

Qiao Beidou patted Ye Tianlong's thigh: "So people who buy antiques nowadays are very careful, but if they can't keep up with their professional knowledge, they are still easy to get tricked."

"So they often turn to professional organizations to help identify them, so that they don't become a fish in the water, even if they have to pay millions of dollars for it."

Ye Tianlong nodded again: "I understand, but why are you looking for me? Identification, the two of you are Taishan Beidou."

"No, no, we are old and our eyesight is often dim. We made three mistakes this year."

Niu Taishan smiled and waved his hand: "It's a small matter, but if you really appraise those heavyweight antiques, your palms will still be sweaty."

He further explained to Ye Tianlong: "The appraisal school I opened, the appraisers who came out, are antique appraisals for the public and are universal."

"Their talents, abilities and knowledge are only enough for them to make a living. Even if they are a little better, they will have personal fortune and good food and clothing, but it will be difficult to advance further."

"They can handle general antiquities appraisals, but when it comes to top-notch or extremely high imitation antiques, they are often unable to do anything."

He pointed at Ye Tianlong: "But you have the strength to stand on the pyramid."

Qiao Beidou also sighed: "Yes, we are getting old after all... most of the disciples who train only know the superficial knowledge, and it is difficult to learn the essence."

"But brother Ye is different. The independent ability of imitating the Luohua Man amazed us, and the identification of the General Jade made us even more stunned."

"In a word, you are very talented and capable."

Qiao Beidou was very sincere: "We hope to cooperate with you. We will undertake the business of national treasures, and then you will help us appraise them together."

Niu Taishan stretched out his hand: "The reward is usually 10% of the purchase price of the antique. The two of us will share five points, and the younger brother will take half. How about it?"

"Don't worry, we won't just ask you for a trivial thing. We'll have at least over 100 million worth of antiques to let you wander around, okay?"

"Why do I feel like it's pie in the sky?"

Ye Tianlong touched his forehead, and then asked with a smile: "Second elders, are you too confident in me?"

"You are talented, capable, and honest enough. With a little polish, you will definitely be a top treasure appraisal talent."

Qiao Beidou looked serious: "We dare not say that you are unprecedented and unmatched, but in the current antique world, you are the best seed we have ever seen."

"We hope to discover your talent, and at the same time, we hope you will bring us benefits."

Niu Taishan smiled: "This is called a win-win situation."

Qiao Beidou echoed: "It's vulgar to talk about money and interests, but in this world, only vulgarity can go further."

Niu Taishan suddenly slapped his thigh: "Well, brother, if you think five points is too low, how about we give you two more points?"

Qiao Beidou was also very happy: "Yes, we can just earn some introduction fees."

"Don't, don't, don't!"

Seeing the sincerity on their faces and inviting him to join the team, Ye Tianlong, who knew that they loved their talents, felt somewhat moved, and waved his hands repeatedly and replied:

"Five points is already very high. For a 100 million antique appraisal, I gained 5 million. It's more cost-effective than robbing a bank. How can I ask two more people to give me a profit?"

Niu Taishan was extremely happy: "So, Brother Ye agreed?"

Ye Tianlong raised his glass: "I don't know if I can do it, but the two of you are so loving. If I don't carry it, it would be too disrespectful."

He shouted happily: "I will join this company."

"Great, brother Ye, I'm waiting for your words tonight."

Qiao Beidou laughed loudly: "Register the company another day, and we will discuss the details with you."

Niu Taishan picked up the wine directly: "Come, come, come, after drinking this glass of wine, you will become one of your own family from now on."
