Trust Is Enough
Since she couldn't sell this golden knife, Yang ZiMei took out a twin fish plate that she had also bought, "Mr. Song, help me appraise this."
"Oh? You have another?" Slightly surprised, Song Xuan carefully received the twin fish plate from her, took up his magnifying glass, and examined it in detail.
He's a person with a seriously deep love for antiques. Once he gets into examining them, he'd immediately become incomparably earnest, forgetting the pain of a moment ago.
Yang ZiMei really liked looking at his concentrated demeanor, carrying a kind of aloof refinement.
Song Xuan put down his magnifying glass, raised his head towards her, coincidentally met her black pupils. His heart gave a sudden jump and he quickly avoided them as he lowered his head to gently touch the twin fish plate, "This is a Northern Song Dynasty Ding ware gold rimmed engraved twin fish plate. The Ding kiln was one of Northern Song's five great kilns. The plate opens into six petals, wide and smooth, bending body, short circular base, a white glaze on the inner and outer, a ring of glaze at the base, and golden rim. The inner walls engrave with the twin fish, the lines flowing smoothly with lively forms, superb craftmanship; an item used within the inner palace of that time."
"About how much is it worth?" This was currently Yang ZiMei's main concern.
"Market value is about 380,000. If it's to be auctioned, it may be even higher depending on the collector's niche. There are some collectors that are dedicated to only these Ding wares."
"Then, would Mr. Song like to procure this?"
Song Xuan looked up at her, "ZiMei, you seem to have some very special senses for antiques, it's only that your related knowledge was insufficient. In two days, there will be an antiques auction in city. Are you interesting in going to gain some experience? As for your twin fish plate, if you want a higher price, I can help you enter it into the auction, how about it?"
Right upon hearing there'd be an antiques auction, Yang ZiMei naturally wanted to experience it, "I want to go."
"Okay, 9'oclock the day after tomorrow, come find me here and we'll go together." Hearing her agree, Song Xuan was very happy.
"Thanks Mr. Song." Yang ZiMei lifted her eyes to notice the bookshelf with rows of books related to antiques, "Ten years ago, Mr. Song said you'd teach me some antiques knowledge, but I've broken the promise. I don't know if it can still be fulfilled?"
"I've been waiting all this time." Song Xuan had a face of smiles, the words he's been waiting for were these.
"I'm going to school now, so I'll come every Saturday and Sunday to learn from you. For other times, can you lend me some books to read, that works?"
"Mm." Song Xuan nodded, he stood to grab a book off the bookshelf,
"Okay." Yang ZiMei received the book as thick as a brick, "Thanks Mr. Song."
"ZiMei, if you want to enter this twin fish plate into the auction, I'd have to first bring it to get register and appraised. Otherwise, it can't be placed into the auction exhibition hall." Song Xuan said as he looked toward the twin fish plate.
"Mm, then I'll leave it here, help me take care of it." In regard to Song Xuan's character, Yang ZiMei trusted it. The feeling he gave her, even if everyone in the entire world deceived her, he wouldn't.
"Thanks for your trust in me." Seeing that she didn't have a spec of precaution for him, Song Xuan was elated.
"You're worth my trust." Yang ZiMei said while looking at him, "Mr. Song has the most noble character from all that I've seen, like this orchid."
Obtaining such praise from her, Song Xuan felt as if he's stepped onto clouds, a floating sensation.
So long as she trusted him, this was enough.
