Hearing what Zhuge Yi said for him, Xue Chen really didn't know what to say. He really felt like a confidant. He didn't see it with his own eyes, but he was sure that he wouldn't make a mistake, and even guessed that it was him.
There is a reason.
Others also believed Zhuge Yi's explanation and nodded in agreement. Without saying anything else, through the conversation just now, they could understand what kind of person Xue Chen was and what his attainments in antiques were.
How could you make such a stupid mistake?
"Xiao Wang, although Xue Chen is young, I heard that he has opened four antique shops. Can he do it without any skills? And you are both young people. You can discuss and learn more with him to improve the field of appraisal.
Only in this way can the program you produce gain high ratings for a long time. You cannot be satisfied with the current situation, you must continue to learn and move forward." Deputy Director Tang Zhengxian said.
Listening to the deputy director's earnest instructions, Wang Ke naturally lowered his head modestly as if listening, nodded repeatedly, and kept saying yes, but if anyone looked carefully, they could see that there was strong anger deep in his eyes.
, the upper and lower teeth were clenched in the closed mouth, completely enduring the anger in his heart.
Wang Ke was going crazy, and even jumped out of his skin. It was clearly Xue Chen who had misunderstood, and when he exposed it, he thought these people would question Xue Chen, but how could this happen? In turn, they educated him and even made him
He went to exchange and study with the other party. He was so angry that his heart trembled. He couldn't help but curse a group of dim-sighted people. He also secretly hated Xue Chen for being able to get the favor and attention of so many people. It was really unreasonable.
Others may not have noticed the emotions that Wang Ke tried so hard to hide, but Xue Chen caught them, and a word popped out of his mind involuntarily, shooting himself in the foot!
After getting to know Xue Chen a little bit, Zhuge Yi's old friends were also willing to talk to Xue Chen. Although Xue Chen was a junior in the antiques world and had only been involved in the antiques circle for more than a year.
But in this year, he has experienced a lot. From being an apprentice, to discovering the picture-in-picture and opening an antique shop with Wang Dong, he has battled wits and courage with a gang of meticulous scammers, and has gone to pick up missing pieces all over the world.
Go to the island to find pirate treasures...
He rarely talks about these things to others on weekdays, but today is different from the past. Although the several old gentlemen here are not rich and powerful, everyone is not simple. There are many in this place in the capital.
some influence.
The purpose of Zhuge Yi calling him here today is to hope that he can become familiar with these people, get to know them, and establish friendship, which will also facilitate his development in the capital.
He didn't want Zhuge Yi's good intentions to go to waste, and he was happy to get acquainted with these knowledgeable old gentlemen. Even if there was no utilitarian interest in them, it was just interesting to drink tea and chat about antiques and history on weekdays.
And these old gentlemen naturally have extremely high vision. How can ordinary people catch their eyes? So they can only make themselves less ordinary.
And Xue Chen did it. He casually talked about some things he had experienced, and won the surprise of a group of old gentlemen. Obviously, they did not expect that Xue Chen was so young and had such rich experiences.
When I heard Xue Chen mention that he had a battle of wits with a scammer when he was buying his old house, not only did he not suffer any loss, but he also used 10,000 yuan to buy a purple clay teapot from Chen Mingyuan from the Qing Dynasty worth 13.4 million yuan from the scammer.
When they got it, they couldn't help but praise it and cheer loudly.
"This is a black and white move, it's really beautiful."
"There's something interesting about this deception."
"What a trick to exchange a civet cat for a prince."
Everyone was laughing and discussing this matter, but university professor Lu Liang looked unnatural. He sighed and smiled bitterly: "There is something that has happened for several years and I have never mentioned it to anyone. Just now.
Listening to Xiao Xue's words, I felt a little emotional. I have nothing to hide. In fact, I have also encountered the same scam. It was also the demolition of the old city and I went to buy antiques at low prices. But unlike Xue Chen, I...
I was deceived, defrauded of more than 300,000 yuan, so shameful."
"What, Professor Lu, have you been cheated?"
"There is such a thing, I never heard you mention it."
"It's not a glorious thing. As for me preaching it everywhere, oh, think about it now. I really got excited when I saw the good things were cheap. When I paid the money and delivered the goods, the room was dark.
I didn't see it clearly, so I hugged him and hurried away, fearing that the other party would regret it. What's funny is that I was deceived and didn't realize it."
Lu Liang looked annoyed when he talked about this matter. More than three hundred thousand yuan is not a small amount of money. Although his son and daughter said it was trivial and did not take three hundred thousand yuan seriously, they were deceived, even if it was just one yuan.
It won't be very comfortable either.
"Well, since you said that the fraudsters you encountered had the same modus operandi as those encountered by Xue Chen, they might be a gang. They are committing crimes all over the country. You were defrauded of 300,000 yuan, but Xue Chen also punished you for it.
Those swindlers have brought in a purple clay pot valued at more than one million yuan. This is called drinking and pecking, and it will be determined by God. It’s not that it will not be repaid, but the time has not yet come." Zhuge Yi comforted Lu Liang and said this.
Thinking of this, Lu Liangliang did feel a little more relaxed, and nodded to Xue Chen: "Xiao Xue, you have done a good job in this matter. When facing a treacherous and sinister liar, you should not be merciful, and you should fight violence with violence.
Punish them severely so that they will not continue to harm other people."
"Yes, that's what Professor Lu said." Xue Chen responded repeatedly.
As a professor at a well-known university, Lu Liang is naturally a smart man and has rich social experience, but he was deceived. This shows how clever and meticulous the tricks of the group of scammers are. But when he came to Xue Chen, not only was he not deceived, but he was also deceived.
After finding out, he was blackmailed for a large sum of money, which is interesting. In comparison, looking at Xue Chen is less painful.
While Xue Chen was chatting with a group of old gentlemen, Wang Ke had been sitting there with a sullen face, motionless or speaking, drinking tea. Although Xue Chen spoke in great detail, he kept thinking in his heart.
He repeatedly believed that Xue Chen was bragging.
Seeing these seemingly ordinary but influential old gentlemen in the tearoom, they looked more and more at Xue Chen. No one looked at him twice, and he felt a surge of sourness in his heart. He was unhappy and worried.
Quickly thinking about how to lose Xue Chen's face, he suddenly thought of something he had only recently understood in general.
“Mr.
Be more natural.
"Oh? Please tell me, Mr. Wang, I think even if I don't know, there are so many experts and professors here who have studied ancient and modern times, and they will definitely be able to answer your questions." Xue Chen replied in a flawless manner.
"Mr. Xue is so polite. Even Mr. Zhuge praised you very much. You are young and promising. You must know it." Wang Ke chuckled, a coldness flashed deep in his eyes, and then he continued with a smiling tone.
, "It is a white, white-glazed porcelain bowl. There are no patterns or patterns on it. There is only the word 'ying' on the bottom. What does this mean?"
When Wang Ke expressed the "question" in his heart, the expressions on the faces of the old gentlemen present changed a little. There were two or three people who were deep in thought, but some of them looked very understanding.
After listening to the question raised by Wang Ke, Xue Chen smiled inwardly. He really thought that Wang Ke would ask such a unique and hard-to-find question, although this question would indeed be hard to find for more than 90% of antique collectors.
He is a human being, but if he wants to ask him how it is possible, he is still a little immature.
He has read more than a hundred books in more than a year, most of which are about Chinese history and antiques. He has read the book "History of the Development of Chinese Porcelain" three times, not to say that he knows it by heart, but he also understands it.
chest.
"Mr. Wang, there is only one word 'ying' on the bottom. You are talking about the white porcelain fired by Xing kiln in the Tang Dynasty and specially used by the royal family. The reason why there is a word 'ying' is specifically for 'Daying'.
The treasury was burned. To put it bluntly, the Daying treasury was the small treasury of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty..."
Xue Chen leisurely talked about Tang Xuanzong's Daying Ku, the characteristics of Ying style porcelain, and how to argue with it.
"The porcelain of Dayingku was not popular in the past few years. It was relatively rare and not many were unearthed. However, it has been on the rise in recent years. A number of fakes have also appeared on the market. If Mr. Wang, you see Da Yingku,
You must look carefully at Yingku's porcelain." Xue Chen warned in a gentle tone.
Hearing Xue Chen explain clearly about Dayingku, the characteristics of Dayingku's porcelain, and the identification methods, Wang Ke knew much more than he knew. Wang Ke kept his face and said nothing. When Xue Chen told him,
He didn't feel any kindness, but instead felt humiliated.
And a group of old gentlemen also really saw Xue Chen's ability. Although they only said it in words and did not really appraise a Da Yingku porcelain, they could still see that they had real skills and that they really had the talent.
Eyesight is not just a matter of boasting and empty mouth.
"The porcelain from Dayingku is indeed relatively rare. Xiao Xue understands it in detail and explains it very well." Zeng Guangrong nodded and said with a smile on his face.
"The class is doing something wrong." Xue Chen said hurriedly.
"Xiao Xue, it is a good thing to be modest, but you should not be too modest. You are indeed good. In today's society, there are few young people like you who have the knowledge and knowledge you have at such a young age." Lu Liang sighed.
"Yes, let's just say that the youngest in our research institute is now over thirty-five years old. He is really a bit out of touch. Xiao Xue, are you interested in doing research in our research institute?" Zeng Guangrong asked.
Xue Chen waved his hand in embarrassment: "I'm used to being wild. I travel all over the world. I'm afraid I won't be able to calm down and do research."
Zeng Guangrong nodded: "What a pity..."
On the side, Wang Ke had a dead look on his face. (To be continued)
