"Who else can I give it to? You are a big shot, you can definitely get it done."

For the first time in her life, Jia Zhang finally let things go.

Li Jiandong also felt a little uncomfortable.

To be honest, Li Jiandong has been traveling to this world since thirty years ago.

Lived until now.

Life has its ups and downs, and most of my life has passed.

Now that he is sixty years old, he has seen many ups and downs.

In the past, Li Jiandong looked down on Jia Zhang.

Now as time goes by, there is actually nothing much to say.

After all, everyone will have this day in the end.

They are all dead, so there is no point in letting go of any grudges.

As long as it's not a deep hatred, it's actually no big deal.

What’s over has passed.

Now, Jia Zhang gave this dragon and phoenix jade pendant to her own museum.

"Don't worry, give me this dragon and phoenix jade pendant. I will definitely put it in the museum for you and write down the name of the donor."

Only then did Jia Zhang nod with relief and smiled proudly. She thought that after being scolded all her life, she finally did something good.

Li Jiandong felt sad and wanted to cry. He had a premonition that a dying man would speak kind words.

Li Jiandong himself didn't know when he would leave.

But just live well while you are alive. Who will care so much after you die?

I just put away the dragon and phoenix jade pendant.

As a result, the system voice sounded in Li Jiandong's mind.

[Ding. The system detected an antique - a dragon and phoenix jade pendant.]

[The system is extracting the spiritual power from the antique. ]

[Extraction completed, the host receives a reward, and each skill's experience value increases by 13000W. ]

[The host receives a reward—God-level identification technique.]

ha?
Li Jiandong could hardly believe his ears.

Not only did I get a dragon and phoenix jade pendant for free, but the system also gave me experience and rewards.
Seeing that Li Jiandong didn't say anything, he stood there in a daze.

Jia Zhang patted his shoulder curiously: "Li Jiandong, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah, it's nothing, don't worry, I'll take care of it."

"I will keep it well and give the donation certificate to Dongxu. I will not let you down."

When Jia Zhang saw that Li Jiandong agreed to her, she nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, I need to take a break too."

"During this period, the food in our courtyard has been getting better and better. I haven't lost out in this life."

"Go ahead. I'm going to take a nap." Jia Zhang said.

"Okay, then, old lady, you should have a good rest. I'm leaving now."

After saying this, Li Jiandong turned around and left the nursing home.

After coming out, Xiao Gao had already walked over and said, "Chief Engineer Li, you saw the dragon and phoenix jade pendant."

"I see." Li Jiandong nodded: "But don't make any plans."

"Why?" Xiao Gao still didn't give up. After all, this thing was worth a lot of money.

"Anyway, don't ask anymore. This dragon and phoenix jade pendant is not something you can get your hands on."

"Forget about the dragon and phoenix jade pendant from now on."

"Also, Jia Zhang has designated that the dragon and phoenix jade pendant be handed over to the state and placed in a museum," said Li Jiandong.

After hearing this, Xiao Gao stopped talking.

What else is there to say?

Chief Engineer Li has made it clear.

The dragon and phoenix jade pendants belong to the country, so you don’t have to worry about it.

Because of this, Xiao Gao could only nod helplessly.

"Well, if that's the case, then I've come here for nothing."

"But Chief Li, you have a wide network of contacts. If you know someone in this field, you might have something good."

"Tell me about it so I can go and take a look." Xiao Gao said embarrassedly.

"Okay, don't worry. I'm here to help you brothers and sisters."

"What are you worried about? Would I not help you? But now I have to go back and deal with the matter of the dragon and phoenix jade pendant."

"Okay, see you another day."

After saying that, Li Jiandong left the courtyard on his own.

Because of what Li Jiandong said, Xiao Gao naturally gave up his idea of ​​the dragon and phoenix jade pendant.

When she got home, Qin Huairu saw Li Jiandong and deliberately put her hands on her hips in an angry manner.

"You still remember to come back. For the past six months, I have been coming back once a month."

"What do you think this place is? A vegetable market?" Qin Huairu said angrily.

"I can't help it. There are more important things to do in the factory, but I'm done with it now."

"Now I can finally rest assured." Li Jiandong said happily.

"You just keep busy and don't care about your health."

"You think there's something wrong with me?"

When Qin Huairu was asked this by Li Jiandong, she didn't know what to say.

Li Jiandong's body at the age of sixty is the same as that at the age of thirty-five.

Qin Huairu could only wave her hands helplessly: "Forget it, I also find your body strange."

"I'm twelve years younger than you, but I look older than you."

"It's really weird."

Qin Huairu said as she went to the kitchen: "What do you want to eat?"

"Noodles, minced meat noodles." Li Jiandong shouted happily.

After a while, Qin Huairu could be heard making some noises in the kitchen.

Li Jiandong sat on the sofa and took out the dragon and phoenix jade pendant in his hand.

At the same time, he opened the system space and learned the magical skill of determination that he had just been rewarded.

In an instant, a lot of knowledge about identifying antiques entered Li Jiandong's mind.

It's like I learned it out of thin air.

At this time, Qin Huairu came out with the food and saw Li Jiandong's ecstatic look.

Qin Huairu was a little confused: "I say, Lao Li, you are so happy all of a sudden."

"Did you find some treasure?"

"It's more than just seeing a treasure, it's like opening my third eye." Li Jiandong said directly.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are already sixty years old."

"Still so unstable, with such a childish temper."

How could Qin Huairu know what happened to Li Jiandong?

He didn't say much, just said to Qin Huairu: "Wife, is dinner ready?"

"By the way, I'm going to stay at the Siheyuan for a few days, so just go and do your thing."

Seeing Li Jiandong say this, Qin Huairu also muttered a few words: "I know you're not home all day long."

"Do you have another lover outside?"

At this moment, Li Jiandong was still immersed in the joy of his god-level identification ability.

So he ignored Qin Huairu at all.

Early the next morning.

Li Jiandong went to the factory first.

After inspecting the R&D work in the factory.

Li Jiandong returned to the courtyard.

When he saw Jia Zhangshi, Li Jiandong said directly: "Old lady, your dragon and phoenix jade pendant is really a good thing."

“I just don’t know where it came from.”

Jia Zhang smiled slightly and said, "I don't know its origin either."

"Jiandong, remember what I told you yesterday."

"Don't worry, I will take care of your funeral affairs."

However, at this moment, Li Jiandong was still thinking about his newly acquired skills.

Although the system told me that it was a top-level identification skill, what exactly was the use of this identification skill?

Li Jiandong still needs to test it himself to feel at ease.

But there is no subject to experiment with now.

The dragon and phoenix jade pendant I looked at yesterday didn't reveal any clues.

It's just very normal.

Therefore, Li Jiandong himself doesn’t know whether this skill of his is accurate or not.

Just when he was thinking about how to test his skills.

Yan Jiefang returned to the courtyard.

It’s quite surprising to see Yan Jiefang come back today.

"Hey, Uncle Jiandong? Did you have a fight with my Aunt Qin?" Yan Jiefang asked Li Jiandong when he saw him.

"What nonsense are you talking about, you little bastard." Li Jiandong cursed with a smile: "Why did you come back today?"

"Didn't you meet some businessmen from Hong Kong recently?"

"These Hong Kong merchants particularly like antiques and collectibles."

"It just so happens that there is a Liulichang in our city. I will take these Hong Kong businessmen to Liulichang to have a look."

"From time to time I can get some good stuff, and I can make some money from the difference." Yan Jiefang said happily.

"You kid, are you selling all the good stuff of our great country to others?"

When Yan Jiefang heard this, he immediately became unhappy.

"Uncle Jiandong, you are scolding me."

"That's called a cultural relic dealer, but I'm not like that. I just negotiate some business with these Hong Kong merchants and try to make a profit from the price difference." "As for cultural relics, there are some in Liulichang, but I don't know them."

"Do you think those uneducated Hong Kong businessmen can recognize him?" Yan Jiefang said.

Li Jiandong nodded after hearing this: "What you said does make sense, but I'm telling the truth."

"It's fine if you take people to see cultural relics, but don't destroy the good things of our ancestors."

"You have to know that this good thing from our ancestors has been through a lot."

"Don't wait until then... Hey, wait." Li Jiandong seemed to have thought of something.

Seeing Li Jiandong like this, Yan Jiefang asked curiously, "Uncle Jiandong, what's wrong with you?"

Li Jiandong suddenly stood up, which scared Yan Jiefang.

"Uncle, please don't scare me. I haven't broken any law."

Li Jiandong is a serious old man in the courtyard, and everyone who sees him has to show some respect to him.

Now Yan Jiefang was naturally frightened by Li Jiandong's behavior.

At this time, Li Jiandong said to Yan Jiefang happily: "Jiefang, you reminded me, your uncle."

"Yes, Liulichang, it's been so many years, why didn't I think of it."

"Uncle, what's wrong with you?" Yan Jiefang looked at him in surprise: "Didn't you go to Liulichang often before?"

"Alright, alright, there's nothing else to do. Just go do your thing. I'm going to Liulichang."

After saying that, Li Jiandong turned around and left the courtyard.

Seeing Li Jiandong like this, Yan Jiefang didn't ask any more questions and just went home.

Liulichang is located to the west of Sijiucheng, in the direction of the west of the city.

Speaking of it, Liulichang has quite a history.

According to historical records, it can be traced back to the Liao Dynasty.

If we talk about the most cultural street in the whole city, it must be Liulichang.

Although it originated in the Former Qin Dynasty, this place called Haiwang Village already existed during the Liao Dynasty.

Later in the Yuan Dynasty, Liulichang was transformed into an official kiln, responsible for firing glazed tiles.

After the Ming Dynasty, this place was ordered to be expanded again.

This is how Liulichang got its name.

Liulichang was one of the five major factories of the Ministry of Industry in the Ming Dynasty.

Later, Liulichang was moved to another place when the outer city wall was built during the Jiajing period.

But the name Liulichang has been retained.

During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, the Manchus and the Han people lived in separate cities, and Liulichang was located just to the west of the Sijiu City.

So this place became a gathering place for many Han officials.

In addition, many talented scholars who came to Beijing to take the imperial examinations would gather here.

Therefore, Liulichang reached its peak during the Qing Dynasty.

The entire long street is about 83000 meters long, with many shops such as study rooms on both sides.

The most famous of them is naturally the well-known Rong Bao Zhai.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, Liulichang had basically become the world of antique and collectibles dealers.

Many historical relics have appeared here.

Among them are top-level treasures such as Wangtianhou and Sifangzun.

Of course, it is fortunate that it was well protected by the cultural relics dealers in Liulichang, otherwise it would have been taken away by foreigners.
After the Republic of China, Liulichang basically became a place where some lazy and extravagant descendants of the Eight Banners sold their property.

Of course, this is the place where property is sold openly.

There is another place called Ghost Market, which is another story.

Since the founding of the country, in order to protect historical relics, Liulichang has been controlled and supported.

Although Liulichang also suffered some impact during the turbulent ten years.

But in the end, a lot of good stuff was preserved.

Now that the economy has been reformed and opened up, naturally many foreign businessmen come to Liulichang to shop.

Because of the country's attention, most of the real top cultural relics are in museums.

As for the cultural relics that foreign merchants can get, they are actually some daily small items of ancient literati and scholars.
Some value, but not much.

Li Jiandong himself had no place to use the skills he had just acquired.

It just so happens that I can go and see whether my god-level identification skills are useful.

If used well, it may bring you different effects that you can't explain.

There is quite a distance from Siheyuan to Liulichang.

However, Li Jiandong's physique is very good, so he doesn't feel tired after walking this distance.

Almost an hour later, Li Jiandong arrived at the gate of Liulichang.

There are antique doorplates and tourists coming and going from all over the world.

From time to time, you can hear some foreign words.

However, it is not the peak tourist season now, so there are not many people coming.

But there are still quite a few people.

After walking fifty meters along the street, a shop called Baiguzhai caught Li Jiandong's attention.

This store looks rather plain and unpretentious, but it exudes a strong sense of history.

Maybe it’s a century-old store.

In Liulichang, unless you own a century-old shop, you won’t have much reputation when you go out.

At this time, a young man was standing at the door. He saw Li Jiandong and called out, "Sir, would you like to see some antiques?"

Although I wanted to tell him that he could call me uncle, Li Jiandong looked like he was only 35 years old.

People who don’t know him can’t see it.

Li Jiandong smiled and walked into Baiguzhai under the reception of the young man.

As soon as he entered the store, Li Jiandong saw a middle-aged man sitting aside drinking tea.

Judging from the middle-aged man's calm demeanor, he should be the owner of Baiguzhai.

The young man said cheerfully, "Sir, this is my father, the boss of Baiguzhai."

"So you are the young master." Li Jiandong said happily.

"Oh, I haven't heard the title of Young Master for a long time." The young man felt a little embarrassed.

"Please sit down first. I'll make you a pot of tea."

After saying that, the young man turned around and went to the back hall.

Li Jiandong nodded to the boss and walked to the display cabinet to the side to look at it.

They are all good stuff, not too valuable, but not cheap either.

Some are modern things, while others only exist during the Guangxu period.

These are all common things on the market and not too rare.

At this moment, Li Jiandong suddenly saw a cup placed in a glass cabinet.

Li Jiandong also knew the rules of Liulichang.

The things that can be put in a display cabinet are the best in the store, at least they are among the best.

"Boss, your cup..." Li Jiandong asked curiously, pointing at the glass cabinet.

When the boss who was drinking tea saw Li Jiandong asking him, he put down his teacup and stood up happily.

"Sir, this cup is called a famille rose cup. It is an item from the Daoguang period. There is only one like it on the market."

When Li Jiandong heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Is it the Porcelain Seven Treasures Cup?" Li Jiandong said.

"Sir, are you an expert?" The boss was a little surprised.

"I'm not an expert, I just heard a little about it."

"Thank you, sir. May I know your name?" the shop owner asked politely.

"My last name is Li."

"Mr. Li is probably one of the few people in this city who knows about this colorful seven-treasure cup."

"Could it be that your ancestors once worked in the palace?"

This is the old custom in Beijing.

During the Qing Dynasty, it was basically the princes and nobles who came here to stroll around and enjoy the collection of antiques.

So the bosses also serve specific targets.

After the Republic of China, due to the decline of the Eight Banners descendants, this place naturally became more and more popular.

But popularization also means that not many people know much about many things.

Take the pastel-colored seven-treasures cup in the shop owner’s store for example; this thing was produced during the Daoguang period.

The outer wall of the cup is decorated with three layers divided by golden string patterns.

The ring cup in the middle depicts seven treasures supported by lotus, with an exquisite and complex composition.

It can be said to be an extremely rare treasure.

Generally speaking, how could ordinary players in the folk know about such treasures?

Even intellectuals with a certain level of knowledge may not be able to grasp it accurately.

But Li Jiandong was able to recognize it at a glance and say its name.

That at least proves that Li Jiandong’s ancestors were not ordinary people.

Hence the question.

"I wonder if the boss can let me take a closer look?" Li Jiandong asked curiously.

"Mr. Li, according to the rules of our business, customers can look at the items, but they cannot touch them."

Hearing the boss's words, Li Jiandong smiled and said, "Don't worry, boss. I am also a particular person."

"I'm just going to take a look at this thing, just put it on the table."

"I definitely won't do it."

"Well, since you are a connoisseur of goods, Mr. Li, I will make an exception for you today."

God knows how many times this boss made an exception. This is an old way of doing business in Liulichang.

However, Li Jiandong did not intend to expose it.

This pastel-colored seven-treasure cup is a good thing. If you take it down, it will be a rare treasure.

After a while, the boss took the cup out of the glass cabinet and placed it carefully on the table.

Li Jiandong then stood half a meter away and observed carefully. (End of this chapter)
