Chapter 365 Apprenticeship
Mr. Liu's villa is very big. After all, the entire villa area was developed by his eldest son. This villa that respects Laozi is naturally extraordinarily large.

There is a dedicated parking lot in the entire villa area. It is not too far from Mr. Liu's villa, and it can be reached within a few minutes' walk.

Many concierges in their 50s and 70s parked their cars in the parking lot and came here on foot, but there were also a few special figures who came directly by car.

For example, the old man in front of him was helped out of the car tremblingly.

Seeing this old man, Mr. Liu, the four of them, and Yang Jing all greeted him respectfully.

"Hi Mr. Geng, I would like to trouble you to make a trip in person. We are really sorry." As a landlord and one of today's protagonists, Mr. Liu naturally had to speak first.

"Hehe, to see the four of you recruiting apprentices together is fulfilling the wish of us old fellows. Seeing that the four of you are all buried up to your necks, and you still haven't been able to find a good apprentice, We old guys are also worried for you." Geng Lao who got out of the car said with a smile.

Mr. Geng is 96 years old this year. He is the oldest expert in the Palace Museum and the top porcelain master in China. Cai Yi has learned a lot about porcelain from Mr. Geng back then.

Mr. Geng looked at Yang Jing who was standing on the side, smiled and said to Mr. Liu and the others: "This kid is not bad. I have talked with Mr. Yang on the phone, and I know something about this kid's situation. Blessed are the four of you." myself."

As he spoke, Elder Geng waved to Yang Jing, Yang Jing immediately took two steps forward, bowed respectfully to the old man and said, "Grandpa Geng is good."

"Well, the young man is not bad. You must learn from the four masters in the future, and don't let down the expectations of your four masters."

"Well, Grandpa Geng, don't worry, I will definitely carry forward the unique knowledge of the four masters."

"Haha, Old Geng, you're here too? I just heard people say you're here. I still didn't believe it, so I came out to have a look. It really is you, an old guy." Accompanied by hearty laughter, Mr. Yang came over.

"Hey, old man Yang, you're not dead yet? Yoyo, this body is getting healthier." Mr. Geng laughed out loud, and gave a warm hug to Mr. Yang who came to him .

The eyeballs of a group of people almost popped out.

Are these two still the Taishan Beidou in the domestic antique collection industry?How to be like a child.

"Oh, brother Geng, your body is not good enough, and you are far behind me." Mr. Yang let go of Mr. Geng, and said with a smile.

"Oh, this is really stubborn, you can refuse to accept anything, but this old man, you can't accept it! I am 97 this year, and I will be over [-] in three years. I can still move now. I have already thanked my ancestors for blessing Well, brother Yang, your body is getting better and better, how did you take care of it?"

Mr. Yang glanced at Yang Jing with a smile, and then said with a smile: "Go, Brother Geng, let's go into the room and tell you, I will tell you a way to rejuvenate your youth."

The two old men, whose combined age was one hundred and nineteen, walked slowly towards the house while supporting each other. Some concierges standing at the door also had shocked expressions on their faces.

Regardless of whether it is Mr. Yang or Mr. Geng, they are absolute Taishan Beidou in the industry. Those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the two of them can count the entire Huaxia with only two slaps.

Both Mr. Geng and Mr. Yang can come here to observe the ceremony in person, which is enough to show that these seniors attach great importance to this etiquette.

In fact, not only Mr. Geng came, but also Mr. Lu, Mr. Li, Mr. Mu, Mr. Wang and other seniors from the Palace Museum.

These masters of the older generation are almost the most senior group of people in this circle, and it is an extremely rare event for them to be able to appear at this ceremony at the same time.

With the presence of these old seniors, those guests who were of the same generation as Mr. Liu were also secretly shocked.It is rare for these seniors of the older generation to see each other, but now they are gathered here, which is enough to prove that these seniors attach great importance to this disciple acceptance ceremony.

Many young people who came to watch the ceremony with Master, looked at Yang Jing with all kinds of envy and jealousy in their eyes.

What is this kid's virtue?Can four top masters accept apprentices together?Can so many seniors who are rarely seen come to watch the ceremony in person?This is simply unreasonable!

However, no matter how envious they were, heavyweight guests came to the villa one after another. When the auspicious time came, the huge hall of the villa could not even accommodate so many people. Many young people A generation of disciples had to stand in the courtyard outside the villa.

There is no way, there are as many as seven older generation masters who came to the scene to watch the ceremony today, counting Mr. Yang who presided over today's apprentice acceptance ceremony, almost all the top older generation masters in the industry have arrived.

Those masters in their 70s and [-]s are all nephews or even lower in front of these older masters, so they can only stand and watch the ceremony in front of these masters.As for the disciples of these masters, being able to stand in the courtyard is enough for them to go back and brag for several years
Ten eighteen in the morning, auspicious time.

As the host of today's apprentice acceptance ceremony, Mr. Yang is a top figure in the circle no matter his seniority or reputation, so he can naturally hold his ground.

"Distinguished guests, you are welcome to come and watch the joint acceptance ceremony of Mr. Liu Zhenyao, Mr. Xiao Zhenguo, Mr. Guo Qingmao, and Mr. Cai Yi. After a long investigation, the four gentlemen unanimously decided to jointly accept Yang Jing from Tianqu City, Lu Province. For personal disciples"

Mr. Yang has experienced this kind of apprenticeship ceremony countless times, so it is easy to preside over this kind of ceremony.Moreover, Mr. Yang's speech today was full of anger, he did not look like a 93-year-old old man, and the guests who watched the ceremony were secretly amazed.

After a series of introductions, Mr. Yang said: "Please stand up and be quiet. I invite the portrait of the Patriarch to worship the Patriarch! Mr. Liu, Xiao, Guo, and Cai offered incense to the Patriarch. Yang Jing was the first three in the portrait of the Patriarch. Kowtow."

The eight old seniors who were originally sitting on the chairs all stood up tremblingly, and several masters with limited mobility also stood up with the support of the juniors.

Two old men, about the same age as Cai Yi, came out of the side hall with a somewhat yellowed portrait together, and placed the portrait in the middle of the incense table.

This portrait is the portrait of Fan Li.In China's antique industry, Fan Li is respected as the patriarch.This portrait is said to have been handed down from the Ming Dynasty.

Mr. Liu, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Guo, and Cai Yi held three sticks of incense, walked up to the portrait of the patriarch, held the incense above their heads, bowed three times together, and said in unison: "Today's disciples Liu Zhenyao, Xiao Zhenguo, Guo Qingmao, Cai Yi, following the precepts of the ancestors, accepting Yang Jing as his disciple in front of the patriarch, I hope the patriarch will bless the four of my disciples to be safe in the future, and carry forward the skills passed down by the patriarch!"

The dense crowd in the hall were silent.

After the four of them put the incense into the incense burner and stepped back, Mr. Yang shouted loudly: "Yang Jing stepped forward and kowtowed three times in front of the Patriarch, worshiping the Patriarch!"

Yang Jing walked up in a regular manner, knelt on the futon in front of the incense table, and respectfully kowtowed three times.

After kowtowing, Yang Jing raised his head and said in a loud voice in front of the portrait of the patriarch: "Today, disciple Yang Jing is valued by the four masters and accepted by the four masters together. I will definitely listen to the four masters in the future. The teachings of the four masters, learn the skills taught by the four masters, learn and carry forward the skills of the four masters. At the same time, if you become a disciple of the four masters today, you will serve the four masters carefully in the future, and treat the four masters like your own father!"

After kowtowing and expressing your heart, the first item of the apprenticeship ceremony, that is, worshiping the ancestor and master is considered complete.

"The four gentlemen Liu, Xiao, Guo, and Cai are invited to be seated below, and disciple Yang Jing will kowtow three times." Accompanied by Mr. Yang's angry voice, the four masters who had just retreated came up one by one, and they were lined up on the right side of the incense table. Yang Jing stepped forward again, knelt down on the futon, stood up and raised his head and said: "Disciple Yang Jing is honored by the four masters to accept him as a disciple. In the future, the disciple will not disappoint the four masters." Hope to learn the skills of the four masters, serve the four masters well, and treat the four masters like their own fathers!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Jing kowtowed three times to the four masters who were sitting Anran on the grand teacher's chair, and the faces of the four masters suddenly showed uncontrollable smiles.

"Disciple offers tea to the four masters!" After Yang Jing stood up, Mr. Yang shouted again.

Holding the teacup, Yang Jing respectfully offered a glass of wine to each of the four masters one by one, making the faces of the four masters beam with joy.

At this time, the apprenticeship or apprenticeship ceremony is over, but as masters, Mr. Liu and the four of them will each give a gift to the newly accepted disciple Yang Jing during this ceremony.

"Come on, Xiao Jing, this is a small gift for you. I know that you still have your own business, so I gave you this high-ice jadeite Pixiu. This Pixiu was given to me by Jiang Bin's father more than 30 years ago. carved it?"

"Master, this, this is too precious, and this is left to you by Mr. Jiang, it has important commemorative significance." Yang Jing knew that this palm-sized Pixiu ornament was very valuable.Although the material is only yellow poplar green high-ice jadeite, but this carving is from a master-level figure.

When Jiang Bin's old man was alive, he was the top jade carving master in the country, and he was only a short step away from the master level. The things he carved, the carver alone was worth a lot.

"Hehe, you can take it as it is given to you. This is the master's wish." Mr. Liu said with a smile, but his tone was full of determination.

"Oh, well, then I would like to thank you, Master, for your gift." Yang Jing carefully took the pixiu, and respectfully bowed to Mr. Liu
