Chapter 402: Meeting Ceremony

 Gene and Wade visited Lu Fei, and the meeting gift brought by Kong Jiaqi almost lost his composure. Even when Lu Fei saw it, he couldn't hide his excitement.

What makes Lu Fei excited is definitely a good object, but it is indeed the case.

The one fixed in the box is a rhinoceros horn carved Songyin Gaoshi Cup, which is slightly larger than the rhinoceros horn carved raft cup that Lu Fei picked up in the Demon City Ghost Market.

This rhinoceros horn cup is nine centimeters tall, with the widest oval diameter reaching fifteen centimeters, and the narrowest part is about ten centimeters.

The cup is dark brown, open and bunched.

The material is made of the wide and thick shape of Asian rhinoceros horns, and the horns are cut off and turned upside down, like an inverted peak rock.

The cup is based on the secluded scholars, and the mountains, ravines and pine trees and flowing springs are portrayed on the outer wall of the rhinoceros horn with a knife instead of a pen.

This cup combines the natural gutter and ground ridge of rhinoceros itself, and cleverly carves out an ancient pine as the handle of the cup. The pine branches extend into the mouth of the cup. The raised parts of the pine tree are also used to emboss the branches and leaves of the pine tree, and the pine leaves are spread flat like wheels. ??

Under the ancient pineapple, an old man wearing a wide-sleeved long gown, with a bun tied up his hair, and a beard and a chest hanging down on the ground.

The stream is gurgling in front of the old man, and a clump of autumn chrysanthemums are born along the rocks, with broad leaves and vast flowers.

This cup has a dignified and simple shape, simple patterns, and the landscape-style layout makes the scenery look picturesque and has a strong charm.

The water flowing method is used to carve the gullies on the inner wall of the cup to the bottom of the cup, and at the same time spread the stream into the bottom of the cup, so that the gurgling water extends into the gullying gullying water.

The scenery in this cup echoes the front and back, with exquisite carving techniques and vivid characters, making it the best among the best.

Lu Fei had the answer in his mind after seeing the materials and exquisite carvings.

When I turned the Songyin Gaoshi Cup and saw the two words "Tiancheng" signed at the bottom of the cup, I became even more sure.

This is the Songyin Gaoshi Cup, a master of rhinoceros horn carving in the Ming Dynasty and the second most important master of Wuzhong, Bao Tiancheng.

Needless to say, Bao Tiancheng's fame is, in the field of rhinoceros, no one dares to be the number one, if this man claims to be the second.

>

Master You Kan is also a master of rhinoceros horn carving, but when he is placed with Bao Tiancheng, whether it is carving, creativity, or personal fame, it is completely incomparable to Bao Tiancheng, and its value is also different.

Bao Tiancheng's works are extremely rare, and there are only nine known in China.

There are six items in the National Expo, all of which are from Mr. Zhang Boju’s personal donation.

There is one in the Bashu Museum, one in each of Yangcheng and Magic City Museum.

As for the public and major auctions, it has never appeared.

If this Songyin Gaoshi Cup by Bao Tiancheng is released, it will definitely be fried to nine digits.

Lu Fei looked at the rhinoceros horn cup on the coffee table. Jean smiled gentlemanly, opened another box and pushed it over.

"Fei, look at this again. This is the gift Wade gave you."

Lu Fei smiled at Wade and said.

"Mr. Wade, you're too polite to meet for the first time."

Wade reached out and made a gesture of invitation and said.

"It is precisely because of the first meeting that I expressed my feelings. I hope Mr. Lu Fei can like it."

Lu Fei nodded and looked into the box. Lu Fei was also very surprised when he saw it.

This box contains not Shenzhou antiques, but a bottle of antique wine.

This is a bottle of 60-year-old McAllen Whiskey. Lu Fei has a certain understanding of the world's antique wine and wine culture.

As far as Lu Fei knows, this wine is too awesome.

Speaking of whiskey, McAllen must be an unavoidable name.

As one of the most prestigious single malt whiskey brands, McAllen has been a target of collectors and investors, sweeping almost all the lists in the global auction market.

At the end of 2018, a bottle of 60-year-old McAllen Scotch whiskey was auctioned at a sky-high price of 1.2 million pounds in the UK, setting a world record for the auction price of a single bottle of whiskey.

According to the auction house, the bottle of whiskey was made in 1926 and was brewed in Sherry barrels at the McAllen Distillery near the Spee River in northeast Scotland for 60 years, and was not bottled until 1986.

Among the 40 bottles of whiskey bottles at the same time, only this bottle was hand-painted by the famous Irish painter Michael Dillon. The pattern was a manor built by the McAllen family in 1700. The wine bottle label was designed by Blake, the godfather of British Pop Art and Adami, the Roman Pop Artist.

"This whiskey is basically the best single malt whiskey of the 20th century, the best collection," said Tim, director of Wine International.

Lu Fei was surprised but did not touch the box. He lit a cigarette and said to Wade.

"Mr. Wade, there is an old saying in China that you can't sleep or eat without merit."

"Your gift is too expensive, I can't accept it."

Wade said with a smile.

"Mr. Lu Fei, we are all friends, just a bottle of wine, why should you refuse?"

"Mr. Wade, if it were ordinary wine, I would definitely accept it with peace of mind."

"But as far as I know, this bottle of wine came from the 18-year-old world-famous wine auction in the UK. It was so expensive at that time."

When they heard that the price was 1.2 million pounds, Kong Jiaqi and Chen Xiang looked at each other and were not calm.

Mom!

One million and two million pounds, equivalent to more than 10 million in China, what kind of mouth is worthy of such expensive whiskey!

My God, it's so scary!

Gene smiled and said to Lu Fei.

"Fei, although this bottle of wine is the same as that at the auction, it is not the same bottle."

"This Wade's family is so sad, don't be polite to him."

"If you have the chance to go to the United States, I will take you to Wade's private winery. There are so many better wines than this. Please drink it with great pleasure."

I

Kong Jiaqi almost swears when she heard this.

If you have more than 10 million yuan in wine, will you die if you don’t brag?

But Lu Fei believed it without doubt when he heard it.

Not to mention Wade's identity, just relying on Gene's identity, it is not a problem to spend a million pounds of wine as a drink.

Judging from Wade's own temperament and conversation, Wade's identity is definitely not inferior to Gene.

Facing two super rich people, Lu Fei would be polite to them again, that would be a fool.

"Since that's the case, I'd rather obey my destiny than respect. Thank you again Mr. Wade. I really hope to have the opportunity to go to your private winery to see it with my own eyes."

"It's very welcome. My winery is open to friends at any time, including Mr. Lu Fei." Wade said.

Put away the two boxes and hand them over to Chen Xiang.

Lu Fei winked and the two women left tactfully.

"Tell me, my friends, if you need my help if you have anything?"

When the two girls left, there was no need for Gene to show off.

He took a long breath and relaxed and said.

"Fei, you actually hide it from me?"

"Hidden from you?"

"What am I hiding from you?" Lu Fei asked with a frown.

"I ask you, do you know how to repair antiques?"

"yes?"

"Then why didn't you tell me long ago that I was looking for skilled craftsmen all over the world, and the result was that Tiangong was my best friend. This was the biggest irony to me."

"Hold!"

"Can you be careful?"
