Mr. Zhou finally pushed the Xuande furnace in front of Li Yang, with a look of reluctance in his eyes.
The door suddenly opened, and the person in charge who was in his fifties to pick up the plane at noon hurried in. It was almost dark outside after a while. It was already dinner time, but the person in charge could not be found.
Several experts came to visit, anxiously running around in circles, and finally received the news that these experts were in Yunzhou Antique City, so they ran over immediately.
Seeing the three experts in the lounge, the person in charge finally took a breath.
The person in charge walked in front of a few people, bowed slightly to everyone, and then said: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhou, and Expert Li, the dinner is ready. Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chen are already waiting there.
It’s here!”
Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chen are two masters in Shanghai. They will be with them for this appraisal meeting. The hosts have already arrived. The three of them cannot keep people waiting no matter what.
"Okay, we'll go there right away!"
Mr. Liu nodded. Li Yang was the top leader when appraising ancient jade, but most of the usual activities were conducted by Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou. After all, considering their qualifications, Li Yang was too young.
"We have prepared the car. Mr. Liu, please do it. Mr. Zhou, please do it. Expert Li, please do it!"
The person in charge bent over to the three people again and asked them to go ahead. Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou walked at the front, followed closely by Li Yang, and Zhou Gang followed behind holding the Xuande furnace and ancient paintings.
Wu Xiaoli packed her things and ended up at the end.
Ouyang Liang was stunned again, staring blankly at what was happening in front of him. When Wu Xiaoli came to his side, he hurriedly grabbed Wu Xiaoli's arm.
"Xiao Li, you, who is this colleague of yours?" Ouyang Liang's voice was a little nervous and his eyes were wide open.
"Don't you know? He is ancient jade expert Li Yang, one of the experts at this Shanghai Ancient Jade Appraisal Conference!"
Wu Xiaoli smiled, gently shook off Ouyang Liang's hand holding her arm, and walked past Ouyang Liang lightly, leaving Ouyang Liang standing there with a dull look on his face.
Shanghai is indeed very well prepared. The car that picked up the three experts is a Mercedes-Benz business car. Although it only has a dozen seats, it is more comfortable to sit in than a luxury bus. They will also use this car to pick up the three experts again tomorrow.
Come here.
It took more than 20 minutes to walk here, but it only took six or seven minutes to get back. The person in charge got out of the car first and opened the door for the three experts. Li Yang gave up his seat and let Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou get in the car first.
The two seniors were very satisfied with Li Yang's attitude. They were neither arrogant nor impetuous. They both believed that Li Yang, a young man, had an unlimited future. Especially Mr. Liu, who thought of his grandson again and looked at Li Yang with a very full expression.
A meaningful smile.
Shanghai Yifang prepared a reception banquet for the three experts. In addition to the two local seniors in Shanghai, there were also several CEOs from auction companies to accompany them. Most of these people had met Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou, but they were very curious about Li Yang.
.
When they saw Li Yang, they were all stunned for a moment. Although they were mentally prepared, they couldn't help but sigh when they saw Li Yang, who was only twenty-four or five years old. He was too young.
Is he really the ancient jade expert who is rumored to be extremely powerful? At this time, everyone has a question mark in their mind.
Suspicion is suspicion. These people would not say it in front of Li Yang. The dinner went quite happily. Neither Mr. Liu nor Mr. Zhou mentioned the matter of Xuande Furnace today. Li Yang would not take the initiative to come if they did not mention it.
After talking about this, Li Yang went directly back to the guest room to rest after the dinner.
Li Yang lived in a suite, and Liu Gang happened to live with him. When he returned to the room, Li Yang looked carefully at the Xuande furnace and ancient paintings before going to bed to rest.
Early the next morning, people from Shanghai sent a car to pick up the three experts. The commercial car took them directly to Yunzhou Antique City. After getting off the car, Li Yang, Liu Lao and the others took the elevator directly to the seventh floor.
.
There were quite a few people standing at the stairwell from the seventh to eighth floors, all welcoming the three experts. Today, the eighth floor of the antique city was reserved by these auction companies, just for them to inspect jade, among other things.
Do neither.
Under the leadership of the person in charge, Li Yang and the others slowly walked towards the eighth floor. Some customers who arrived early on the seventh floor looked at this side curiously, and some came out to inquire. Some people even wanted to go to the eighth floor.
Take a look, but it's a pity that the eighth floor has been sealed, and they can't get up.
When they arrived at the eighth floor, Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou asked Li Yang to stand in the middle of them and let Li Yang walk in front. After all, Li Yang was the main expert in appraising the ancient jade this time. No matter how senior the two were, the main
The seat cannot be snatched. At the same time, leaving Li Yang in the middle also has the idea of building momentum for Li Yang. The two seniors are willing to do this, and they have already recognized Li Yang in their hearts.
Ouyang Liang stood in the welcoming crowd on the eighth floor, watching blankly as Li Yang walked into the conference hall surrounded by everyone, with deep jealousy flashing in his eyes.
Ouyang Liang did not review his behavior yesterday. Instead, he blamed Li Yang in his heart. At the same time, Ouyang Liang felt extremely unbalanced. He felt that he should be the one standing in Li Yang's position. Ouyang Liang has been thinking about it since he was a child.
He is the one whom others learn from, and he is the sweetheart of heaven that everyone praises. Now he suddenly sees a peer who is more powerful than him, which really makes him unable to accept it.
The two experts from Shanghai were already sitting inside. When Li Yang and the others came in, they immediately stood up and waited for Li Yang and the others to arrive before they sat down together.
There were five people, and Li Yang happened to be sitting in the middle.
The jade inspection activity has begun. This time Li Yang learned from Beijing's lesson and all appraisal certificates must be issued in a unified manner.
Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhou and Li Yang have already cooperated once, and this time they are familiar with each other. Anyway, Gu Yu was right to listen to Li Yang first. As for those Zhou imitations, Li Yang will tell them if he sees them.
If they don't see it, then they don't even need to think about it.
The two experts in Shanghai were a little confused about the attitude of Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou, but they could only cooperate. It seemed that there were two people in Shanghai this time, but everyone understood that the experts from Beijing were still the main ones.
The first person to send the ancient jade was Shanghai Huhua Auction Company, which is the company where Ouyang Liang works. The CEO of their company personally sent the ancient jade that needed to be verified this time.
Huhua Company has a total of ten pieces of ancient jade that need to be verified, including two larger ornaments. The strength of Huhua Company can also be seen from the number and scale of ancient jade.
There was nothing wrong with the first piece of ancient jade. Li Yang handed it directly to Mr. Liu beside him, then picked up the second piece and looked at it carefully for a while before using his special ability to observe it.
Appraisal of ancient jades is a very rare learning opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, it will not be easy to see so many ancient jades. Li Yang will seize every learning opportunity. Everyone sees Li Yang there
Observing Gu Yu carefully, everyone thought he was trying to identify whether it was Zhou Fang, but they had no idea that Li Yang was just studying and comparing the theoretical knowledge he had obtained from books.
The first eight pieces of ancient jade were all fine. Li Yang couldn't help but nodded lightly. These eight pieces of ancient jade also benefited Li Yang a lot.
Finally, there are the two large ornaments. The first one is the Hetian jade Maitreya Buddha ornament. Maitreya Buddha is a lying Buddha statue, 23 centimeters long and seven centimeters high. It is made entirely of white jade, and it is also the finest mutton-fat jade.
.The jade material alone is already priceless, and this Maitreya Buddha ornament is also the most important ancient jade auction item of Huhua Company.
As soon as the Maitreya Buddha ornaments were delivered, several people from Huhua Company became nervous. This is the most important weapon they promote. They must not expect this Maitreya Buddha ornaments to drive this auction.
Something went wrong.
The ornament was placed in front of Li Yang. Li Yang weighed it with his hands and found that it weighed almost three kilograms. Such a large mutton-fat white jade was a rare treasure not only in ancient times but also in modern times.
The Maitreya Buddha is very beautifully carved and vivid, especially the smiling face of the Maitreya Buddha. Anyone who looks at it feels like he is smiling at himself. The belly of the Maitreya Buddha is so smooth and tender that you can't help but want to touch it.
One touch.
This mutton-fat jade ornament is also very round in the hand, and it gives people a cool feeling when you touch it, which is very comfortable.
Judging from the carving and coating, this Maitreya Buddha should belong to the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty, and it was probably the work of a famous artist during the Wanli period. Anyone who plays with ancient jade knows that Suzhou jade carving was at its peak during the Wanli period.
The most famous master of the generation, Lu Zigang, was a representative of that period.
It is precisely because of this that everyone is even more nervous. The current Zigang jade caused by Zhou's imitation is priceless and unmarketable. It is not that there is no stock, but no one dares to buy it. Everyone is afraid that they are meeting Zhou imitation.
It was a good thing. After seeing it, Li Yang activated his special ability. Then the smile on Li Yang's mouth froze slightly and he slowly placed the Maitreya Buddha on the table.
Mr. Liu glanced at Li Yang worriedly, but Li Yang shook his head gently and said nothing.
Another ornament was also brought up. This ornament is a green jade bamboo forest. No matter from the appearance or special ability observation, there is no problem.
Having finished viewing the ten pieces of ancient jade from Huhua Company, Li Yang did not comment on any of the ten pieces of ancient jade and continued to appraise the ancient jade from other auction companies.
More than an hour later, it was the experts' break time. As soon as they entered the lounge, Mr. Liu couldn't wait to grab Li Yang.
"Xiao Li, is there something wrong with the Maitreya Buddha? Is it Zhou Fang again?"
Mr. Zhou on the side also stared with big eyes. The two old experts from Shanghai looked at the two of them doubtfully, did not speak, and looked at Li Yang with them.
Li Yang shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It's not a Zhou imitation, and it's a real ancient jade, but I found traces of splicing on it!"
"Splice!"
Mr. Liu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said: "You mean, this is a restored piece of debris?"
"No, I suspect there are other possibilities. It's hard to make a final decision right now. I want to bring the Maitreya Buddha here at noon and we can study it carefully before making a final decision!"
Li Yang shook his head again. This Maitreya Buddha is a genuine ancient jade, but it is not a real mutton-fat jade. This is the first time Li Yang has seen such a fake ancient jade, so he really can't comment on it for the time being.
