When the note was opened, there were not many words inside, only about four or five lines.
There is only one main content, which is to warn or advise Ye Shaofeng not to fight Guan Yang here.
Behind Guan Yang, there is not only Yang Shikuan, but also behind Yang Shikuan, there are also senior officials in the central government. If Yang Shikuan had no one behind him, he would not dare to allow his brother-in-law to do whatever he wants here.
At the end of the note, Ye Shaofeng told Ye Shaofeng to take care of himself and do what he can. In the future, he can ask Liu Changjun for help with any big or small matter. However, he, Liu Changjun, had nothing to do with Guan Yang and Yang Shikuan's affairs and could not help him in any way.
Liu Changjun did not explicitly say who was behind Yang Shikuan.
After reading the note, Ye Shaofeng put the note into his pocket, and when he got to everyone's place, he asked for a fire to burn it.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived at Wang Jianjiang's office.
Wang Jianjiang was still very polite to Ye Shaofeng, with a smile on his face.
He asked Ye Shaofeng to sit down, and then personally served Ye Shaofeng tea and water, as if he was Ye Shaofeng's subordinate.
"Mayor Wang, you don't have to be busy. Didn't you just say you had something to talk to me about? What's the matter?" Ye Shaofeng asked straightforwardly.
Wang Jianjiang obviously didn't know what Guan Yang said to Liu Changjun after Liu Changjun went to see Guan Yang that day, nor did he know what Liu Changjun said to Ye Shaofeng.
Wang Jianjiang still wanted to rely on Ye Shaofeng to create a bright future for his official career.
Wang Jianjiang smiled slyly, then walked to his desk, opened a locked drawer, and took out a small wooden box with exquisite packaging.
Taking this small wooden box, he walked up to Ye Shaofeng and said, "Dr. Ye, I know that you usually like to look at antiques and the like, and you should have some research on jade. I have a gadget here. Please help me take a look. "
As he spoke, Wang Jianjiang opened the small wooden box, which contained a palm-sized piece of cabbage carved from jade.
The carving is exquisite, and the jade is definitely high-quality Hetian jade, which is very rare. The carving work of the jade carver is also very exquisite. It must be the hand of a famous cook.
"This thing is good. The jade is absolutely good. I haven't seen such good material in a long time. Moreover, the carving craftsmanship is even more exquisite. If I guessed correctly, this jade cabbage should come from In our country, Bai Fengyuan is one of the best old sculptors who is good at carving jade cabbage," Ye Shaofeng said.
"Dong Ye really has a good eye and is definitely an expert in this industry. Yes, this one was indeed carved by Bai Lao. It is also the smallest and the longest among the jade cabbages he carved," Wang Jianjiang said.
"As far as I know, Mr. Bai has not published any works for a long time. Five or six years ago, he seemed to have suffered from Parkinson's disease. Even when he was not holding a carving knife, his hands would tremble unconsciously. Mr. Bai's works are widely circulated in the world. There are very few of them now, and many of them have been exiled abroad. There are no more than 300 pieces of this kind of jade cabbage that can be easily identified and extremely delicately carved on the market in our country," said Ye Shaofeng.
"Actually, I don't know much about this. This was given to me by someone from the Cultural Affairs Bureau here before. I have kept it in a drawer and am not interested in it. If Director Ye is interested, this Just accept it," Wang Jianjiang said.
"This...how can I be embarrassed? No, no, this is too expensive," Ye Shaofeng firmly refused to accept it.
It's not because he doesn't accept it because it's valuable. Anyway, I'm not an official anymore. Accepting gifts from others and doing things for others is not considered a bribe in the officialdom.
Ye Shaofeng was worried that if Wang Jianjiang gave him such a valuable thing, he might beg him to do something.
"Dr. Ye, I don't understand this anyway. In your eyes, maybe he is very precious and valuable, but in my eyes, it is no different from a piece of broken stone. It is a waste to put it here. So, Good things should be given to people who really understand them, so that their value can be reflected, right?
If you don't accept this, you won't give me Wang Jianjiang's face, and it will be difficult for us to be friends in the future," Wang Jianjiang said.
This thing is indeed worth a lot of money. If it were in an auction house, the starting price would be at least 200,000 yuan.
The jade market is actually in a downturn right now, and many good things are priced but not available.
There are fewer and fewer people playing with stones, but the price that was raised before was still high. In the eyes of people who know him well, this thing is indeed something before, but in the eyes of a group of people, there is no clue.
Now is actually a good opportunity to collect jade. Why do you say this? Because the market for jade is hot and cold. When it is cold now, the price will not be too high. You can keep an appropriate amount of inventory. Once it is hot, At that time, this little jade cabbage was worth millions at auction.
If Ye Shaofeng were asked to spend 200,000 to buy it now, Ye Shaofeng would not hesitate, but Wang Jianjiang insisted on giving it away. Between giving it away and buying it, Xuewen would be a big deal.
But if you, Ye Shaofeng, are forced to do this, if you really don't want it, you won't give me face.
Wang Jianjiang is the mayor. If you don’t even give me the mayor’s face, do you still want to hang around here?
However, Ye Sa Hongfeng also thought that Wang Jianjiang might want to buy an official position from him here.
Ye Shaofeng knew many people and had a high influence in the officialdom. He also knew many people in the central government. As long as Ye Shaofeng casually talked, Wang Jianjiang would most likely be able to take up a position in the province.
If you rely on yourself, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to achieve the results.
Now that he finally has such a thick leg, he must hug it.
Ye Shaofeng thought for a while and felt that he could accept the jade cabbage and help Wang Jianjiang.
Why should you help him? Because helping Wang Jianjiang get up is actually conveying his own power to the top.
Now the deputy governor Liu Changjun is afraid of Guan Yang and others and dare not help Ye Shaofeng.
He is timid because he stands tall and knows too much.
And this Wang Jianjiang has a low status now and doesn't know much. He just takes advantage of his characteristics of knowing nothing and being very trusting and dependent on Ye Shaofeng to form an impact on Guanyang's forces.
Ye Shaofeng reached out and caught the box, but still pretended to say: "Let's do this, I'll give you money. If I accept such a good thing, you will suffer a big loss."
"No, no, no, if you say that, Mr. Ye, I will really feel sorry for you. I gave you this little broken lion head, and I still charge you for it. Then our relationship will go too far." Yes, you can't give me money. If you give me money, I will worry about you. This is my little thought. If you can accept it, I will be very happy..."
