Counterattack 1988

Chapter 1158
Wang Lin saw that it was getting late, and felt that this pockmark was a gimmick, unreliable, and he didn't want to follow him, but he also wanted to find the underground cultural relics trading gang in Chang'an City. Not afraid of the other party's tricks, he nodded in agreement.

As he led the way, Mazi laughed and said, "It's not all junk here. Many people have found good things here. There are really yellow rosewood furniture."

Wang Lindao: "There is also a fierce rebounding pipa figurine!"

As soon as this was mentioned, Mazi also burst out laughing: "That's too fake, it's fake at his grandma's house."

Mazi walked with Wang Lin and the others for more than ten minutes, and came to a low-rise private house.

He looked around vigilantly before knocking on the door.

A thin man opened the door, he looked outside quickly, and then kept waving: "Quick, quick!"

Wang Lin was not afraid of things, so he went straight in.

It was dark.

But the eyes quickly adapted to the darkness inside.

A dim lamp was shining in the room.

It looked like this was someone's living room, but it was so busy that messy things piled up all over the floor.

"This way, please." The thin man and the pockmarked man walked in, sandwiching Wang Lin and Duocai between them.

Through a narrow corridor, there is a room full of things, and there are two people in the room, sorting things.

Wang Lin only took one look and recognized that they were the two people he met in the hotel elevator.He was like a bright mirror in his heart. All of this was originally arranged by these two people. The purpose was to test Wang Lin and lure Wang Lin here through pockmarks.

"It's you!" Wang Lin said lightly, "Why bother? You agreed to sell the goods to me, and you made such a big detour?"

The man in black laughed and said, "Comrade, don't be angry. It's the first time we're dealing with each other. I need to know if you're the real consignee."

He stretched out his finger and drew a circle around the entire room: "Look! Are these goods still in your eyes?"

The lights in the room were not very bright, and even the windows were sealed, so there was no light coming through.

"How can you see this clearly?" Wang Lin said, "Even if you are a thief, you wouldn't be afraid to turn on the light?"

The man in black's expression changed, and he winked at the thin man.

The thin man pressed a button on the wall and turned on a big light.

Wang Lin could see clearly now, he was very shocked!

He doesn't understand antiques, but the goods inside are too scary!

There are all kinds of goods in it!

The simple and gentle looking jade is engraved with seal script or official script.

Large and small ceramic products are randomly placed on the ground, and there is a pile of stone tools under the window sill, which looks like a water tank and a cup for drinking.

All kinds of bronze utensils, with green rust, some with fresh soil.

A knife and a sword are hung on the left and right sides of the window. On the pillar on the left is a large black wooden knife, one meter long, with a green jade pendant hanging on it, and a pair of copper coins hanging on the right. Swords, those copper coins with copper rust are strung together into the shape of sharp swords with red threads. The swords are about a foot long. Although the two things are not as sharp as those real swords and swords, it can be seen that the craftsmanship of the swords is unparalleled .Looking at the incense table in the middle of the window sill, there is something in the middle of the incense table that is half a foot high and covered with a red cloth.

Seeing Wang Lin staring at the red cloth, the man in black smiled and removed the red cloth.

Wang Lin's eyes lit up, this is a phoenix crown!
This is the phoenix crown of the Ming Dynasty!
Phoenix crown, the traditional crown decoration of ancient Chinese emperors, concubines and aristocratic wives, is decorated with phoenix-shaped jewelry.

The phoenix crown of the Ming Dynasty was a ritual crown worn by queens when they accepted books, visited temples, and court meetings.In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the colorful crowns used by ordinary women were also called phoenix crowns, and they were mostly used in weddings.

Wang Lin had seen a phoenix crown before, so when he saw this phoenix crown, he knew it was from the Ming Dynasty.

"How is it? Did you see anything?" said the man in black.

Wang Lin didn't come to buy antiques!

No matter how many antiques there are, he will not buy them.

"That's all?" Wang Lin shook his head, "Not very good."

The man in black was startled, and said, "Comrade, what do you want to buy? These are licensed products. You can't even see them?"

Wang Lindao: "As I said, I want to buy a few things and put them on the shelf in my villa. None of the things you have here are suitable."

The man in black said: "Is this bronze ware not good? And this porcelain ware, these are all pretty goods from the Ming Dynasty. I believe you can also see that, where did all our goods come from? There are absolutely no fakes."

"Don't tell me if it's fake or not." Wang Lin said, "But it's not suitable for display."

The man in black was startled: "Comrade, we only have this kind of goods. What do you want?"

Wang Lindao: "The things I want must meet four requirements, and that is weirdness."

It was the first time the man in black heard that this word was used to describe antiques, so he couldn't help but ask, "Queer spirits? How do you say that?"

Wang Lindao: "Ancient means to have historical value. Ling is something that is handcrafted dexterously and ingeniously. Fine means high-quality goods. The same goods in the market should not be too much, but must be representative. Strange means strange and rare, different from others."

The man in black clicked his tongue twice and held out his thumb: "Comrade, I didn't realize that you are an expert."

Wang Lindao: "I can't talk about experts, but I know a little bit. Do you have any good jade and jade wares?"

Someone once said when talking about antiques: "If you choose to concentrate wealth, the best carrier must be antiques."

When the wealth reaches a certain level, the rich think about how to preserve the wealth, the currency will depreciate, and the company may encounter risks, so the rich are looking for something that can preserve their value for a long time.

The appearance of antiques can solve this problem.

The saying "The poor buy gold, the rich hide jade" is widely circulated in the collection industry.

Jade, like gold, does not depreciate over time, and compared to gold, jade can not only highlight the cultural connotation of the collector, but also has a higher value, so he has become the darling of the rich circle.Rich people buy jade not only for fun, but also for investment and collection.Jade is enough to pass on to the family. After decades or generations, the value will double. Stocks, take decades as the time axis to wait for appreciation.

With the passage of time, the value of antiques will only increase. If children and grandchildren can hold it, it is equivalent to passing on the value of wealth. It is also under this consideration that the gold, calligraphy and painting, and jade markets will continue to prosper.

my country has a history of thousands of years of jade culture, and everyone from princes and nobles to merchants have a soft spot for jade.Looking at the nations of the world, there has never been a nation that is so obsessed with jade and turns jade into a cultural symbol like the Chinese nation.Liu Datong, a master of ancient jade studies, made such a judgment on jade culture: "For the enlightenment of our country's literature and art, jade is the oldest."

The cultural value of jade has also achieved its unique status. People often say that "a thousand pieces of gold have a price, and beautiful jade is rare."

The modern rich also like to collect jade.

Li the richest man in Hong Kong, a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, a business benchmark figure of an era, he is also top-notch when it comes to playing jade.The richest man Li loves jade, especially jade brave. It is said that the number of jade brave in his collection is as many as 888, which is a wonderful combination.The most famous piece in Li’s collection is a jadeite Pixiu, which was once owned by Chiang Kai-shek and was later collected by Li’s richest man. His value has soared to hundreds of millions, but Li rarely shows it to others.

Modern people like to buy Hetian jade.

How expensive can a piece of flawless Hetian jade be?Start with [-] million and easily break through [-] million.

Later generations have the richest man Wang with a small goal of 1.3 million. As a bigwig in the jade hobby circle, he is very qualified to speak about this. He is rich and loves to buy jade, and he is a top player in the jade circle.He bought a jade carving at a high price of 1380 million yuan, and a jadeite stool at a high price of [-] million yuan.

It is also said that the purpose of the rich man buying jade is to avoid tax reasonably.

This is hard to say.Collecting jade may be true love, or it may be a means of tax avoidance. After the company purchases it, the net profit will be reduced and the corporate income tax will be reduced.

Wang Lin said that he wanted to buy jade, which can be said to be an act of the rich, and he also has a certain understanding of antiques.

Hearing this, the man in black murmured, "How much can you pay for jade? Good jade is usually very expensive."

Wang Lindao: "As long as your jade is worth so much, then I can afford it."

This is very bold!
No matter what kind of jade you have, or how much your jade is worth, as long as it has such a high value, Wang Lin can afford it.

The man in black said: "Jade jade cabbage, is it okay?"

Wang Lindao: "From the Qing Dynasty?"

"Yes, it's from the Qing Dynasty. Comrade, you really are a man of knowledge."

"how much is it?"

"80. Do you want it?"

"If it's real, of course I want it."

Jade cabbage made of jadeite is generally a jade treasure that only appeared in the Qing Dynasty.

According to statistics, there are only 6 green jade cabbage in the world, three in the Baodao Palace Museum, one in the Beijing Palace Museum, one in the Jinmen Museum, and the whereabouts of the remaining one is unknown.Among the three jade cabbages in the Baodao Museum, one is said to be the dowry of Concubine Jin of Emperor Guangxu. After Cixi died, this jade cabbage was also put in the mausoleum together with Cixi.Later, Cixi's tomb was stolen by the warlord Sun Dianying, and the jade cabbage was exiled among the people like this, and went to the Forbidden City Museum in Baodao.

Wang Lin heard the other party said that there was a green jade cabbage, but he was a little skeptical.

"Where is it? Let me see the goods first." Wang Lin asked.

The man in black said: "The goods are valuable, they are not on my side, they are in Brother Meng's hands."

During the trading at noon, Wang Lin also mentioned Brother Meng from that Brother Hai, so he asked, "Where is Brother Meng? Take me to meet him."

"Brother Meng—" the man in black swallowed the words, "Comrade, if you want to buy it, I'll get it. After you inspect the goods, we will complete the transaction."

Wang Lin thought to himself that it is human nature for the other party to be worried about the first transaction, so he said, "Okay. When will the transaction be made?"

"Tomorrow afternoon."

"where is it?"

"Are you staying at the Golden Flower Hotel? Which room? I'll go find you. Foreign-related hotels are safer."

"Okay." Wang Lin said his room number.

"Get the money ready. I'll come to you at twelve noon tomorrow."

"no problem."

"Didn't you like any of the goods here?"

"I don't like it."

The man in black sent Wang Lin and the others out.

The door behind him closed silently.

The two walked away, and many money said: "President Wang, these people are not good people, they are grave robbers at first sight."

Wang Lindao: "I'm looking for them!"

Many money said: "Do you want to call the police and arrest them?"

Wang Lin was stunned, and shook his head lightly: "Don't startle the snake. Besides, we have no deal, we haven't bought their goods, and they don't trust us at all now. Maybe they will move away as soon as we leave. Wait for the police When they came here, they had already left the building empty."

"That makes sense. If we buy their stuff, we're in their boat. They trust us."

"Well! This kind of person is generally cautious in doing things, and will not be easily caught by others."

Wang Lin vaguely remembered the way he came here. He walked around for a while, and came out of an alley. The front was very familiar. It turned out to be the Golden Flower Hotel.

Those people are near the Golden Flower Hotel!
Wang Lin and the others wandered around for a long time before returning to the starting point.

Uncle Zhong and the others haven't come back, nor have they called.

After Wang Lin returned to the room, he called Gao Changmin, but the other party still had no news of Tian Xiaoqing.

Gao Changmin told Wang Lin that their bureau was going to start the second plan.

Wang Lin said he knew, but didn't mention his action plan.

Although he believed in Gao Changmin, he was also afraid that the other party's eagerness to do meritorious service would mess up his plan.

This evening, Wang Lin didn't go out for a walk, and he was not interested in the famous scenic spots in Chang'an City.

He sat on the balcony, smoking a cigarette from time to time, not knowing what he was waiting for.

What contacts does Uncle Zhong have in Chang'an City?
What can they find out?

Can Gao Changmin and his second plan of action work?Can Tian Xiaoqing and the others be rescued?
Can tomorrow's deal with the man in black gain the other party's trust?Can you meet that mysterious behind-the-scenes figure, Brother Meng?
That Brother Meng has nothing to do with Tian Xiaoqing's disappearance?
There are no particularly tall buildings in the ancient city. Sitting on the sixth floor of the Golden Flower Hotel, you can see the night view of most of the ancient city.

The sky became blurred under the night fog.

Compared with the gorgeous and luxurious sky of Shencheng, the night sky of the ancient city is as simple as canvas, without luxurious colors, but with the loveliest stars and the purest bright moon.

The only thing missing was the person who would watch the stars with Wang Lin at night.

"Sister Tian, ​​where are you?" Wang Lin looked at Ye Tian and sighed quietly, "Are you in the city? Or outside the city? Are you in a safe place, or are you fighting to the death with the thieves? Or are you Has something really happened?"
