Chapter thirteen, private investigation!

"Jingdezhen Pottery Record" records: "The method of sticking bowls and cups is used to use unsteamed gluten into a sieve, clean a little fine lime, and pestle hundreds of times. It is suddenly turned into water, and it is firmly tied and dried. It is better than nail piercing. But it should not be soaked in water for a long time. If the porcelain is damaged, or if it is glutinous rice porridge and chicken, grind it very well, add a little powder, and then grind it to stick to the damaged parts of the porcelain."

What Jiang Lai advocates is such an ancient way of restoration.

"No." Xiong Boyi raised his objection and said: "What era is it, and he is still using backward repair methods? Do you know that ceramic repair methods are becoming more and more advanced now, and many projects use high-tech? At a young age, I didn't expect that I had no knowledge than me, the old man. How can I become a tool for being self-contained? I don't agree with the method of sticking bowls."

Lin Chuyi looked at Jiang Lai and waited for him to continue talking.

If Jiang Lai is only at this level, then what Xiong Boyi said is correct, an intermediate repairman in the repair center can do it well. Why ask him to come?

Of course, it didn't cost much money to invite him over, and the repair cost he asked for was even cheaper than the small pieces repaired by an intermediate restorator.

But he doesn't want money, he wants his life.

Without the sign of "The Successor of the Ghost Hand on the Cake", who can tolerate his temper and personality?

"This repair method can intervene in antique devices with minimal intervention. It can repair cracks, but it is a traceless repair, rather than the successful repair of Jinshan Method, which will leave golden marks on the bottle."

"In addition, I want to correct Teacher Xiong's wrong cognition. The repair methods are ever-changing, but they are always the only one. Whether it is high-tech means or ancient traditional means, all means have only one purpose: perfect repair."

"Some people can cure diseases by pulling a handful of weeds in the mountain stream, while others use tens of millions of scientific instruments but cannot detect the cause. Is this the cause of the disease? It's just the difference between a good doctor and a quack doctor."

"Who do you think is a quack doctor?" Xiong Boyi was furious again. He just wanted to jump out of the chair, but Lin Chuyi reached out and pressed him to the spot and could not move.

"What does Mr. Jiang Lai mean?"

"You are familiar with it." Jiang Lai said, "The methods are the same, the techniques are different. My repair techniques are naturally different from those of other people."

"Want to use the unique icing on the cake repair method of your Jiang family?"

Jiang Lai nodded and said, "The so-called icing on the cake is nothing more than what we practice better than others."

"..." Xiong Boyi's face turned dark and green, and purple. Before the air in front was finished, new air came again... He felt that he was too busy.

Lin Chuyi picked up the teacup and handed it to Xiong Boyi, signaling him to drink tea, and also shut up.

"Do you have confidence?" Lin Chuyi asked.

“I have the skills.”

Xiong Boyi took the teacup, but did not drink the tea, and said, "Okay, you proposed this method of sticking the bowl. You signed the repair plan. If there is any problem at that time, you will be responsible and you will compensate for the losses. The boy plays in the water bottle, hum, I see how you can afford it."

"No need to sign." Lin Chuyi looked at Jiang Lai's gentle and firm eyes and said, "I believe Mr. Jiang Lai can repair the boy playboy."

"A wise choice." Jiang Lai said. He glanced at Xiong Boyi and said, "If it was repaired by using the Jinsong method, even if the boy plays in the Aquarius bottle is repaired, do you think Ueno Pavilion is willing to accept it?"

"Okay, okay. I want to see how your sticking bowl method can repair this boy's playboy. If the repair is not good, I can't even pass this level, let alone explain it to the Ueno Museum."

"Uncle Xiong..." Lin Chuyi was worried that Xiong Boyi would deliberately make things difficult for her, which would destroy her original intention. She did not want to be deceived by Jiang Lai, so she found someone to supervise her. However, she was even more unwilling to stop the restoration work due to the conflict between the two, and then it would be a mistake for the important matters of the boy playing in the Aquarius exhibition and return.

"I know." Xiong Boyi and Lin Chuyi have known each other for many years, so they naturally know how strong the young lady is. If someone in the company dares to drag her back on her work, her methods are unpredictable. "He repairs the bottles well, I'll keep an eye on them. When the repair work is over, I will check it out."

Xiong Boyi assured Lin Chuyi that since the repair plan has been decided, he will no longer interfere in affecting the repair progress during the repair process.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Xiong." Lin Chuyi smiled.

He turned around and looked at Jiang Lai and said, "When will Mr. Jiang Lai start repairing the bottle?"

Jiang looked at Xiong Boyi and said, "If no one objected, I hope it is now."

He raised his wrist and looked at the antique watch on his wrist and said, "It should have started half an hour ago, and so much time has been wasted in vain."

Xiong Boyi picked up the teacup and took a big mouthful. His previous breath was not over yet, but he is now in the digestive stage.

What's more, he firmly believed in his heart that "young boy" like Jiang Lai could not repair such a precious Southern Song boy playing in the Aquarius. When he picked some flaws or directly announced the repair failed, his personal future and family reputation would also end.

At that time, it was obvious how he could say these annoying words with a sharp tongue. I am afraid that compensation for the loss of playing in the boy will make him lose everything for the rest of his life...

Xiong Boyi even had more obscure thoughts in his heart.

Lin Chuyi, the little girl, didn't take her as the director of the restoration center seriously at all. She clearly belonged to Jiang Lai and supported him in every way. Even a national treasure weapon like Boy Playing Aquarius did not require a restoration contract.

"Wait for her to fall a big shot."

Thinking of Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi's miserable appearance half a month later, Xiong Boyi's anger dissipated faster.

"If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss."

Seeing Jiang Lai's eyes falling on Gong Jin, Lin Chuyi took the initiative to stand up and introduce, "Mr. Jiang Lai, this is Gong Jin. He is mainly engaged in antique auctions and is also my good friend."

He pointed to Jiang Lai and introduced to Gong Jin, saying, "This is Jiang Lai, the top restorator in China. This time he will restore the broken boy playboy for our Shangmei Museum."

"Hello." Gong Jin glanced at Jiang Lai and said with a voice, without any intention of reaching out.

Jiang Lai was still sitting upright, not even trying to get up, and replied perfunctorily: "Hello."

Lin Chuyi looked at Jiang Lai's calm appearance, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, saying, "Teacher Jiang, I'm not to hide it. Before I went to see you, I asked Gong Jin to conduct a private investigation on you. Before I asked you if you had a master, you deliberately kept it secret from me. What I didn't expect was that you were the son of Jiang Guishou. It was really ecstatic."
