Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 626 Yuan Qinghua

You Xuesong, a professor at Capital University, a first-class researcher at the National Museum, is in his 60s.

Originally retired, he was re-employed by the National Museum because of his unique insights in cultural relics appraisal, and he is still working on the front line of work.

The old man has gray hair and a thin body, but he is in good spirits.

After get off work, I took the patched canvas bag, greeted my colleagues, and walked to the place where the bicycles were stopped.

He rolled out his rusty bicycle, took two quick steps, sat on the seat of the bicycle with a stilt leg, and the bicycle moved forward smoothly.

Anyone who saw it had to give a thumbs up and praise: this old man has a great body, just like a young boy.

Facing the faint sunset, You Xuesong rode his bicycle back home.

There is no one else in the family, his wife passed away a few years ago, and the children have formed their own families when they grow up, and he is the only one left.

After saying hello to the neighbors, You Xuesong took out the key to open the door, put down his handbag, and was about to start a fire and cook.

There was a crisp knock on the door outside.

"Who is it!"

You Xuesong put down the stainless steel pot and walked into the main room, he was slightly taken aback when he saw the person coming.

The visitor was wearing a well-fitting gray Chinese tunic suit, but his appearance was very unfamiliar. You Xuesong raised his eyelids, thought for a moment, but still couldn't think of where he had seen it.

"You are."

"Professor You, I was entrusted by someone to deliver something to you."

Liu Changyi entered the room while speaking, took out a wooden box from the canvas bag, and placed it on the table.

"Professor, this was given to the museum by a kind person."

"I finished the task and left first."

"Ehhh"

You Xuesong came to his senses and wanted to call Liu Changyi to stop, but it was too late, Liu Changyi disappeared when he left the house.

You Xuesong stood at the door in a daze for a while, scratched his head, turned back to the table, and walked around the wooden box.

The rust and patterns on the wooden box bag all indicate that it is old, but at most it is only 200 years old, so it is not considered a cultural relic.

The things inside should not be good things, and this time they may have to live up to the expectations of well-intentioned people.

The cultural relics collected in the National Museum are all fine cultural relics with historical significance or relatively old age.

In recent years, as the reputation of the museum has grown, many well-meaning citizens have thought of donating the cultural relics collected at home to the museum.

However, they are often turned away because of their low value.

You Xuesong has already fast forwarded to how to deal with the antiques inside.

You sighed, and casually opened the wooden box.

After seeing the objects inside clearly, You Xuesong's breathing suddenly became rapid, and the hands that had lifted countless antiques began to tremble.

"This, this is Yuan Qinghua!"

As an expert in cultural relic appraisal, You Xuesong recognized the origin of this bottle at a glance.

The Sumaliqing blue of Yuan Qinghua and its rough painting style make it a top-level work of art.

It is a pity that due to the long history, there are very few Yuan blue and white flowers left, and a large part of them have been exiled in foreign museums.

Even in the National Museum, a leading large-scale museum in China, there are only two Yuan blue and white vases, which are called Zhizheng large bottles.

The instinct from cultural relic appraisal experts convinced You Xuesong that this porcelain vase was indeed blue and white from the Yuan Dynasty.

However, reason told him that this was impossible.

In this era, the price of Yuan blue and white has soared, and it was sold for a high price of 2000 million US dollars in foreign auction houses.

But now the wages of ordinary workers in China are less than 50 yuan.

That kind person, just donated 5000 million US dollars to the museum?
Of course, there are people with that kind of noble style, and museums have also accepted donations of valuable cultural relics.

However, most of the donors are famous people, and the museum will vigorously promote this behavior, so that the donors can be featured on TV and in newspapers.

You Xuesong had never encountered such a situation of secretly donating.

"This thing shouldn't be real."

After You Xuesong figured it out, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

He took the porcelain bottle out of the box smoothly.

As soon as he got the porcelain bottle, his expression changed.

This porcelain vase has the unique touch of Yuan blue and white.

This is an inexplicable feeling, even without scientific principles, but it is the key method for You Xuesong to identify Yuan blue and white flowers.

You Xuesong held the porcelain vase, as if holding a child, and came to the stage to examine it carefully.

This is a plum bottle with four love pictures. The main pattern on the abdomen is four diamond-shaped consecrations. The four love pictures are painted respectively: Wang Xizhi loves orchids, Zhou Dunyi loves lotus, Tao Yuanming loves chrysanthemums, and Lin Hejing loves plum cranes.

The four kinds of flowers imply elegance, and imply the meaning of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which can be described as unique.

You Xuesong restrained his mind and focused on the body of the porcelain vase.

The blue pattern is decorated with concave grooves, which are concave, and the part with thick cobalt has the characteristics of eating tires, and tin spots can be seen occasionally
These are all consistent with the characteristics of Yuan blue and white.

You Xuesong already had a plan in his heart at this time.

However, in order to be finalized, it needs to be tested by professional instruments.

At present, in China, as the price of antiques soars day by day, antique counterfeiting is common. Take Liulichang as an example, more than half of the antiques in it were unearthed yesterday.

Moreover, the working people are highly intelligent, and various methods of fraud emerge in endlessly, and even appraisers who specialize in appraisal work are often recruited.

This Yuan blue and white statue is of great significance and must not be sloppy.

Although it was getting late, You Xuesong still packed the wooden box into the canvas bag, rode a bicycle and came to the museum.

Ignoring the surprised gaze of the security officer, You Xuesong went straight to the office, picked up the phone and informed seven or eight experts and researchers.

Those people were already off work, and when they received the call, they were not in a very high mood.

but.

I heard that You Xuesong got a blue and white statue of Yuan Dynasty, and he immediately became energetic.

It took less than 10 minutes, and those experts and researchers rushed to the cultural relic appraisal room.

The Yuan blue and white statue had already been placed on the workbench at this time, exuding brilliant colors under the light.

Those experts and researchers couldn't help swallowing.

"This thing may indeed be genuine."

"I think it can be confirmed that with the current level of counterfeiting, it is impossible to make such a realistic blue vase."

"That's right, that's right, the production process of Yuan Qinghua has not been cracked yet."

Of course, even if everyone thinks that there is nothing wrong with this Yuan blue and white statue, it still has to be tested by scientific instruments.

The researchers put the blue vase into a professional CT machine and determined that the blue vase is a complete bottle, not glued together by "fragments".

Then, carbon fourteen identification was carried out on the blue vase.

That night, all the experts and researchers were waiting outside the identification room.

In the end, even the curator of the museum was alarmed and came to the identification room with a bunch of leaders.

Just in time, the door of the identification room opened.

You Xuesong rushed forward impatiently and asked, "How is it?"

The researcher raised his hand high: "It's Yuan Qinghua!"

Whoa!
The atmosphere at the scene was like boiling water, and it exploded immediately.

Those experts and researchers jumped up and down like children, excited that the National Museum has added a town hall treasure.

The curator strode up to You Xuesong, and said with a smile: "Professor You, what is the name of the person who donated the national treasure, and what unit does he belong to? I will contact the reporter of the newspaper immediately."

You Xuesong: "He didn't leave his name, he just said it was given by a kind person."

curator:"."

He was silent for a moment, and said sincerely: "It seems that in this world, there are indeed people who don't ask for anything in return. His spirit is worth learning for all of us."

Time is like diarrhea, you want to grab it, but it slips through your hands.

In a blink of an eye, it was time to visit the machinery factory.

Early in the morning, the Lanhua Automobile Factory prepared the vehicles.

A jeep, two buses.

In addition to inspecting the machinery factory this time, the accompanying technical experts will also inspect the production process of the machinery factory. If any violations are found, they will be asked to rectify them at that time.

Now Lanhua Motors has sold well both at home and abroad, and thousands of cars are delivered to consumers all over the world in various ways every month.

Once there is a problem with the quality of the car, it will inevitably affect the reputation of Lanhua Automobile Factory.

"Factory manager, look, although the machinery factory is an old factory with a dilapidated appearance, the equipment inside is the most advanced in the country."

Through the car window, Liu Changyi pointed to the green brick building next to him and introduced.

Wang Weidong nodded slightly: "Yes, the machinery factory is considered to be more aggressive among domestic factories."

Thinking of the statement made by the factory director Liu Feng a few days ago, Wang Weidong's confidence in the machinery factory has increased a bit.

Since the completion of the Lanhua Automobile Factory, there have been disputes among the top management of the Lanhua Automobile Factory regarding the development of the automobile factory.

Some leaders believe that since it is an automobile factory, it should produce all auto parts, ranging from electromagnetic motors to small screws for the trunk, all of which should be produced by the automobile factory itself.

However, some other leaders pointed out that Lanhua Automobile Factory’s current strengths lie in the design of electromagnetic engines and complete vehicles. In terms of manufacturing those parts, the level of craftsmanship is not as good as that of other factories. The production of parts should be subcontracted. It can save costs, improve the quality of the whole vehicle, and also provide orders for other factories.

Both routes have advantages and disadvantages, and finally Wang Weidong chose the latter one based on the experience of later generations.

Facts have proved that this choice is wise.

After the Lanhua Automobile Factory subcontracted the production of accessories, relying on the strength of dozens of domestic factories, it achieved mass production of complete vehicles in only two months.

When the convoy arrived at the gate of the machinery factory, director Liu Feng, deputy director Zhao and a group of leaders were already waiting outside the machinery factory.

When the jeep stopped, Liu Feng rushed to meet him, opened the door, and said with a smile, "Welcome Factory Director Liu to visit our machinery factory."

After shaking hands gently, Wang Weidong said with a smile: "The machinery factory is now an important partner of our Lanhua Automobile. With your efforts, our Lanhua Automobile can sell well at home and abroad. Naturally, we cannot take the situation of our partners lightly. , I also hope that Director Liu will not have other ideas about the problems we pointed out during the visit."

"Of course, don't worry, if my old Liu doesn't even have this kind of tolerance, he won't be qualified for the position of factory director." Liu Feng, the factory director, smiled heartily.

He knew Wang Weidong's temperament. Wang Weidong was a man with strict distinctions between public and private interests.

but.

Those domestic factories are scrambling to cooperate with Lanhua Automobile Factory.

The reason is simple, people give too much.

"This is Deputy Factory Director Zhao who is in charge of production, and this is Factory Director Zhou who is in charge of financial work."

Factory director Liu Feng introduced the leader behind him to Wang Weidong. When he introduced a fat man, his smile was obviously forced.

"This is Comrade Cui Dake, Director of the Logistics Department."

Cui Dake?
Wang Weidong's eyes widened and he looked carefully.

The current Cui Dake is chubby, wearing a woolen tunic suit, his demeanor and appearance are very different from the member of the commune more than ten years ago.

However, the annoying flattering smile on his face was exactly the same.

Cui Dake is even more treacherous than Xu Damao, Xu Damao is a real villain, he likes to flirt with big girls and little wives, but he is what you like.

Xu Damao never used force.

But Cui Dake is different, he forced Ding Qiunan in order to stay in the capital.

In the first week, Wang Weidong saved Ding Qiunan only after he got rid of Cui Dake.
And in this episode, without Wang Weidong's intervention, according to the development of the plot, Cui Dake should have married Ding Qiunan.

Wang Weidong subconsciously searched the crowd, but he didn't see Ding Qiunan's shadow.

At this time, Cui Dake, who was standing opposite him, was already sweating on his forehead.

According to the scheduled procedure, the two should shake hands with each other, and then have a brief chat.

However, Wang Weidong just froze in place, as if
This person won't have a problem with me, will he?

Cui Dake's heart skipped a beat. If it was someone else, he would have lost his temper.

Facing Wang Weidong now, he could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, licked his face and said with a smile: "Director Liu, Director Liu, I am Cui Dake, and I have admired your name for a long time."

Only then did Wang Weidong come to his senses, stretched out his hand and shook Cui Dake lightly, turned around and walked into the machinery factory accompanied by Liu Feng.

For this kind of insidious villain, Wang Weidong has no idea of ​​making friends.

Cui Dake was a little confused by Wang Weidong's indifference.

He wanted to scratch his head, but he couldn't think of how he had offended the big factory manager.

However, Cui Dake's biggest advantage is that he is not discouraged.

The snobbery at the factory gate did not make him give up the idea of ​​prying the corner of the wall. During the subsequent visits, he used his advantage as the director of the logistics department to appear among the accompanying personnel frequently.

"Director Liu, this is our production workshop. The technicians in the workshop are all masters above level [-], which is enough to guarantee the quality of the products."

Wang Weidong looked at the busy workers and nodded with satisfaction: "Lao Liu, the most important thing in production is craftsmanship. If your machinery factory can invite a few eighth-level masters to sit in charge, the level of craftsmanship will definitely be improved a lot." cut."

"We would like to invite eighth-level masters, but you also know that there are not many eighth-level workers in our factories in Beijing." Liu Feng laughed.

At this time, Deputy Factory Director Zhao next to him seemed to have thought of something, and walked forward with a smile.
