Chapter 253: A Useless God

 The phone rang, and Wang Xiaoshan went directly to the bedroom to answer the call. Li Miaomiao was sitting next to him just now. A man and a woman were alone in the same room. If the parents found out about this, they would start to get angry again.

If this was an unfamiliar call, Wang Xiaoshan would hang up immediately, but the person who called him this time was Zhang Hanyang, so he still had to answer it to see what this guy wanted to do with him.

Zhang Hanyang: "Hello, Lao Wang, what are you doing?"

Wang Xiaoshan: "Hello, Hanyang, I just finished eating and resting at home!"

Zhang Hanyang: "Have you read the news on the Internet?"

Wang Xiaoshan was a little puzzled. He didn't know what Zhang Hanyang was talking about, so he asked, "Which thing?"

Zhang Hanyang: "It's the Tang Sancai that you identified as problematic last time. It's definitely fake!"

Wang Xiaoshan: "Ah, I just saw similar information on the Internet and am looking for detailed reports."

What Li Miaomiao just showed Wang Xiaoshan was an online report about a fake Tang Sancai auction by a certain auction company, which was reported to the police, and a blogger reported the matter in detail.

However, neither the blogger who broke the news nor the official news released online showed the name of the specific auction company, and Wang Xiaoshan did not know which company it was.

Although Liang Jianchao told Wang Xiaoshan the specific name of the Tang Sancai auction company he purchased before, Wang Xiaoshan did not care about the company name and did not take it seriously.

Just now, Wang Xiaoshan went to the Internet to check if there were any photos of Tang Sancai that had problems. If there were photos, he would know whether they were the ones he originally identified.

Wang Xiaoshan is very good at appraising treasures, but he doesn’t know much about the auction circle. If he wants to know more, he can only look up information online.

But Zhang Hanyang is different. Now that he has taken over the auction company, he naturally needs to understand the specific conditions of each company in the industry. If there are major events in the circle, he will pay more attention to them.

Today, the news that an auction company is selling fake Tang Sancai has spread in the circle. In the past, if auction companies encountered similar incidents, they would immediately suppress it and lose money.

The bigger the incident gets, the worse it will be for the reputation. When the reputation is bad, who will be willing to bring things to the auction company for auction? Even if someone sells it, the buyer will not dare to buy it. No one wants to be taken advantage of.

[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the source-changing app used by chasing bugs, huanyuanapp.]

The Tang Sancai in question today happens to be the four Tang Sancai that Wang Xiaoshan appraised at Zhang Hanyang Auction Company.

After Liang Jianchao called Wang Xiaoshan during the day, he went to arrange the appraisal. However, contrary to expectations, the auction company insisted that the items it auctioned were genuine.

If you want to have it appraised, the other party will ask Liang Jianchao’s agent to invite a professional appraiser to appraise it. Otherwise, you can go wherever you want to appraise it after paying the money.

Liang Jianchao already knew that the item was fake, so of course he was not willing to pay the money and take it to another place for appraisal. He had seen this kind of nonsense far more often.

You need to pay a deposit to participate in the auction. Going to the auction is not like going to the supermarket. You put what you like in the basket first and then leave if you don’t want it.

There are auctions with lots estimated at tens of millions. You won't be allowed to enter the auction without paying a deposit of millions. If you bid without a deposit, you can't take it away. People are on guard against those who don't want the auction after the auction.

When Liang Jianchao saw this, he went directly to contact the person. He had been in the business world for so many years and knew some people from all walks of life.

After making a few calls, Liang Jianchao contacted the appraisal expert that Wang Xiaoshan told him, an authoritative person in the appraisal of Tang Sancai in China.

The most capable thing about Liang Jianchao is that he invited appraisal experts to the auction company on the same day, which is not something ordinary people can do.

Of course, it costs a lot to invite such experts to come to the site for appraisal and designation, but it is still a little less than the deposit paid by Liang Jianchao.

Moreover, after inviting experts to conduct appraisals, Liang Jianchao will definitely treat the experts to a meal, just so he can get to know each other and make friends. It is not a loss-making deal for him.

But what was unexpected was that Liang Jianchao invited experts to the scene for appraisal. The experts definitely said that the two Tang Sancai he auctioned were indeed fakes.

These two pieces of Tang Sancai were made by this expert, but the place where the Tang Sancai's name was left was altered, and the altered areas were repaired.

The restoration technology is very sophisticated and should be done by experts. Ordinary experts can't tell it at all and can easily mistake the fake for the real thing.

Now that it has been identified, the normal process should be to refund the deposit and pay for the loss, so quickly put this matter down.

But the manager of this auction company didn't know which link was wrong today, and he refused to accept the results of the expert appraisal invited by Liang Jianchao.

The appraisal expert invited by Liang Jianchao also showed the other party some documents that could prove his identity, but it still didn't work.

Liang Jianchao was too lazy to argue with the other party and called the police directly. Since talking can't solve the problem, let the police help solve it.

In the end, this incident became more and more serious, and everyone in the auction circle knew about it, and someone online also broke the news about it.

Later, the police reported the incident through the Internet.

However, this kind of thing only has a relatively big impact in the auction circle. It’s not that people in the circle don’t pay much attention, so after it was revealed, it didn’t become known to the entire Internet.

Li Miaomiao knew about it because of Wang Xiaoshan. Wang Xiaoshan's daily treasure hunting involved these fields. She would go online to read relevant information when she had nothing to do.

After the auction company has auctioned the goods, the auction prices can be found online. Li Miaomiao will help Wang Xiaoshan pay attention to this information.

At that time, if Wang Xiaoshan finds similar treasures, he will know what the treasure is worth when he sells it, and he will not suffer any loss when selling it.

Zhang Hanyang briefly told Wang Xiaoshan what happened, and finally said gratefully: "Thanks to you this time, otherwise I would have lost a lot of money."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

This time Zhang Hanyang is really grateful to Wang Xiaoshan. If Wang Xiaoshan hadn't helped him identify the four Tang Sancai paintings as fakes, he would have been the one to lose money.

Moreover, when Zhang Hanyang hired Wang Xiaoshan as the chief appraiser of the auction company, some people in the company were still dissatisfied. Although he was the boss of the company, the company still had directors.

The most important thing is that Wang Xiaoshan, the chief appraiser, is still an uncertified appraiser, and he doesn't usually work. The cost of hiring him is hundreds of thousands a year, and others are no longer happy.

The auction circle knew about this fake product, which also blocked the mouths of other people in the company. Otherwise, many people would think that Zhang Hanyang hired a useless master and took money from the company in vain every day.

After this happened, many company directors no longer doubted Zhang Hanyu's vision, and the leadership also recognized Wang Xiaoshan's ability.

Zhang Hanyang: "I'll come find you this Friday or Saturday, and let's have a good drink!"

Wang Xiaoshan: "Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiaoshan went out of the bedroom, but he found Li Miaomiao video chatting again.

Li Miaomiao's mother just called and found out that her daughter had returned home, so she just sent a video to check it out. Only a few days later, she missed her daughter again.

Since Li Miaomiao was chatting about the video, Wang Xiaoshan went to wash up. The bath was already taken at home. Wang Xiaoshan washed his face, brushed his teeth and then went back to the bedroom.

Fortunately, there was a tablet in the bedroom. Wang Xiaoshan found a movie and watched the movie while waiting for Li Miaomiao. He just happened to warm up the bed first.

After Li Miaomiao finished the video, she still had to apply oil and apply facial mask. It would take a while, but the girl was still a little slow to go to bed.

In the end, Li Miaomiao chatted with her parents for more than an hour before hanging up the video. She was about to finish watching one of Wang Xiaoshan's movies. If she didn't come, Wang Xiaoshan would be ready to watch the second movie.

Li Miaomiao lay down on the bed directly after washing up. While chatting just now, she ate some dried fruits on the table, and now she feels a little full.

Lying in bed, Wang Xiaoshan told Li Miaomiao that Zhang Hanyang might come to ask for it on Saturday. If Li Miaomiao had other arrangements, he could only arrange it on Sunday.

Li Miaomiao ate too much today, and the two of them had a full night's sleep. If they exercised, 80% of what they ate in the evening would be lost.

Early the next morning, the two of them had something to eat at home and then set off home.

There was no traffic jam on the way back or in the village today. Wang Xiaoshan went home first and changed a car before going to Yehu.

It rained yesterday, and the treasures at the bottom of the lake were much cleaner. The cleanest thing was the stone boat. The stone boat had the biggest pit and got the most rain.

Wang Xiaoshan went there in the morning and took a broom to sweep it, otherwise it would take several days to dry up the water on the boat.

After cleaning, Wang Xiaoshan went to wait for the live broadcast time. When it was about 8:40, Liang Jianchao's call came.

Liang Jianchao treated the experts to a meal last night, so he didn't call Wang Xiaoshan that night. He quickly called Wang Xiaoshan this morning.

Liang Jianchao made this call just to thank Wang Xiaoshan. The final transaction prices of the two Tang Sancai paintings he took were all over 10 million.

If Liang Jianchao bought this back as a genuine item and put it in a museum, it would be a loss of more than 20 million, and more than 20 million is not a small sum.

Liang Jianchao made this call because he wanted to have a drink with Wang Xiaoshan another day to thank him, but he hadn't set a specific time yet. It would be within this week anyway, but he would call Wang Xiaoshan in advance.

Wang Xiaoshan found that he didn’t have to go anywhere this week, so if things continued like this, most of the arrangements for this week would be eating and drinking, and he wouldn’t have to do anything else.

Wang Xiaoshan told Li Miaomiao about this matter. Don't arrange anything else this week. Saturdays and Sundays are mostly bartenders, so let's go together then.

Li Miaomiao doesn't have any objections. She won't drink when she goes there. She only needs to be responsible for taking care of Wang Xiaoshan. If he drinks too much, he can take care of him at night.

When the other three reporters arrived at 8:50, they waited for the live broadcast to start as soon as the time came.

"Good morning to all viewers in the live broadcast room, the sun is shining brightly today, and we can continue digging for treasures again!"

[The four treasures that Lao Wang identified last time have been circulated on the Internet. They are all fakes. Lao Wang’s vision is really amazing. I can’t help but admire them!]

[When it comes to treasure hunting and treasure appraisal, if you don’t believe Lao Wang, then you can only get slapped in the face. The auction company is really unlucky this time.]

[This is an excellent opportunity. I don’t know if my friend reminded his boss last time. If he did, he would be promoted this time!]

[In a few days, Lao Wang will become a hot commodity that major auction companies are competing for. With Lao Wang, you no longer have to worry about auctioning fakes!]

[Lao Wang, please don’t take so much of this kind of business. If you take on too much of this kind of business, you won’t be able to watch Lao Wang dig for treasures in the future. I prefer watching treasure digging for treasure appraisal and treasure digging.]

Someone posted all the photos of this fake product online this morning. The audience in Wang Xiaoshan’s live broadcast room had seen these Tang Sancai before.

When the photos appeared online, many viewers recognized that the fakes this time were the four that Wang Xiaoshan identified last time.

If the content of online reports is not accompanied by pictures, many viewers may not care about it, but with pictures, the audience will think of the treasures that Wang Xiaoshan appraised a few days ago.

However, many viewers in the live broadcast room did not know about this. After seeing the comments posted by other viewers just now, they went to search for relevant information online.

There are so many viewers in Wang Xiaoshan's live broadcast room. One word spreads to ten and one hundred people spread the word. Sooner or later, the viewers in his live broadcast room will know about it.

The auction company's auction of fakes this time will probably be reported by several reporters in Yehu today. It can be regarded as a follow-up to the last report.

If this is reported, Wang Xiaoshan's reputation will only grow and his ability to identify treasures will be recognized by more people.

"Don't worry, my main job is to dig for treasures, and I only do treasure appraisals once in a while."

Wang Xiaoshan doesn't want to look for treasures every day. The company named Zhang Hanyang is because of good connections. If he changes to another company, he won't bother to care about it and won't pay him.

The reporters at the scene were also watching the live broadcast just now. After reading the messages sent by the audience, they also went to check the relevant information online. Except for Li Miaomiao, everyone else just learned about the news.

Previously, Cao Bingbing also saw articles posted online by other reporters about Wang Xiaoshan helping others identify treasures, but the final conclusion was not written in the article.

Cao Bingbing didn't take it seriously at the time. Now that she thought about it, she found that Wang Xiaoshan's level of treasure appraisal was as high as that of digging for treasures. She quickly went back to read the previous reports.

Several other reporters were still checking information online. Li Miaomiao had already started writing a manuscript in the mobile room. She had already started writing when she came in the morning.

Although Li Miaomiao knew about this matter yesterday, she didn't have time to write it yesterday. Before Wang Xiaoshan dug out the things, she had nothing to do, so she just finished writing it in advance.

Liang Jianchao said this week, who knows when it will come, Li Miaomiao must finish writing the manuscript early these days. She doesn't want to write the manuscript while others are eating.

After Wang Xiaoshan finished speaking to the audience, he was about to set off, but before he could reach the place with the shovel, he was called back by Li Miaomiao.

But the person who was really looking for Wang Xiaoshan was not Li Miaomiao, but Officer He. After seeing Officer He, he had already guessed what was going on.

This time, Officer He did not ask Wang Xiaoshan to take him to find someone in the mountains, but asked Wang Xiaoshan to show the way.

Now Officer He often goes to the mountains to look for people, so he found a guide in the village. Officer He was always troubled by Wang Xiaoshan.

The place we want to go this time is the same cave that Wang Xiaoshan took Officer He to before. He had already marked it on the road when he went there last time.

Officer He came here just to ask Wang Xiaoshan to tell the guide how to get there, and then they would go to the mountains to look for the person themselves.

Now Officer He has almost caught up with half of the guides. He spends almost five out of seven days in the mountains. Some people are injured, some are lost, and some are trapped. These things happen every day.

Wang Xiaoshan gave the guide a general guide on how to go. He marked the way along the way, and there were many marks. Anyone who often went to the forest before should be able to find it.

After the guide understood it, he followed Officer He and set off. Today is another day trip in the forest. Fortunately, it is close to the mountain. Many people often go up the mountain and are familiar with the forest. Otherwise, it would be difficult to find a guide.

Except for Cao Bingbing, the three reporters before him had all gone to the woods with Wang Xiaoshan. When everyone saw Officer He coming, they thought Wang Xiaoshan was going to the woods again.

Hao Meili and the others are already scared. The last time she and Wang Xiaoshan went to the forest, her legs took a week to recover. Now she is most afraid of going to the forest.

But the task given by the leader is to go where Wang Xiaoshan, Hao Meili and the others go. If Wang Xiaoshan really goes to find it in the woods today, they will follow him again.

Hao Meili and the others were so happy when they found out that Wang Xiaoshan didn't go with them. Today they can report comfortably in Yehu for another day.

Reporting in Yehu and looking for people in the mountains, in the hearts of Hao Meili and others, it is a paradise and a hell.

Cao Bingbing had never experienced this kind of thing before, and she was curious to ask Hao Meili and others about the last time they rescued people. They are all-round talents who can dig for treasures, appraise treasures, and save people.

After seeing off Officer He, Wang Xiaoshan continued to set off with the shovel. The broadcast started at 9 o'clock. The shovel has not been dug yet. It is already 10 o'clock.

This time Wang Xiaoshan did not dig a new hole, but went to the big hole dug yesterday afternoon. This time he did not use the drone and just held the camera.

The reporters at the scene were a little confused. What was Wang Xiaoshan's routine today? Why did he go to the previous pit again? Didn't he finish digging out the treasure yesterday?

Several reporters all followed Wang Xiaoshan to the pit, but the space in the pit was limited. In the end, the girls all stood in the pit, and the photographers all stood on the tunnel.

When he got to the bottom of the pit, Wang Xiaoshan inserted the camera to the side and prepared to dig. Each of the four reporters was slimmer than the last, and two of them standing on each side did not affect him much in digging the pit.

Wang Xiaoshan is not digging a hole deep this time, but digging a hole at the bottom of the hole. Yesterday, he found a treasure about one meter away from the hole.

Since the distance is not far, Wang Xiaoshan thinks that the treasure should still be within the scope of the house. As long as it is in the house, he should dig out it first. If he can find something, it is best. If he can't, he will dig a hole again.

Generally speaking, digging a hole is much more comfortable than digging a pit, and when digging from top to bottom, Wang Xiaoshan has to dig out a lot of tiles and rotten wood. He is really too lazy to clean these things.

This time Wang Xiaoshan plans to dig a one-meter-high hole. If the treasure exceeds one meter or is difficult to take out, he will have to give up the plan.

Just do it, Wang Xiaoshan took the shovel and started digging directly. He dug the hole very quickly, and the speed of digging the hole was not slow. The soil was flying all over the place, and he was able to dig in more than 50 centimeters in a while.

If Wang Xiaoshan digs for a while longer at this rate, he will see the treasure.
