Live Appreciation, Congratulations to Brother

Chapter 40 Have you heard of Cultural Relic Thief?

Although Sister Gao kept talking, she didn't delay the work at hand, and quickly helped Zhang Yang remove the makeup.

Zhang Yang glanced at the time, if he ran two steps, he should still be able to catch the bus he usually took, so he quickly picked up his schoolbag and ran out.

As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Chen Yanguang wearing sunglasses, half leaning on the front desk, flipping through the company's brochures on the table.

When the other party saw Zhang Yang, he immediately greeted him.

"Master Zhang, I'm here to pick you up from get off work!"

Chen Yanguang was all smiles, reaching out to pick up Zhang Yang's schoolbag.

"Brother Guang, what's your situation?"

Zhang Yang subconsciously took half a step back.

The hospitality came in a bit of a hurry, a bit strange, the big brother took over the get off work, isn't that the benefit of the female anchor?

"What's the matter? Didn't I say yes, I'll find a chance and treat you to another supper?"

Chen Yanguang said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have checked all the people who ate together this time, and no one has ever used a knife."

"Oh, so it's dinner."

"But I plan to go for a massage at night." Zhang Yang rubbed the back of his neck: "Sitting all the time during the live broadcast is a bit uncomfortable."

"Massage?" Chen Yanguang raised his eyebrows: "Can you step on your back? You like heavy ones, and I'll help you arrange them."

"Eh..." Knowing that this person was thinking about it again, Zhang Yang was a little helpless.

"Come on, bro, come and sit down."

Zhang Yang thought for a while, and pulled Chen Yanguang to the sofa next to him to sit down.

"Tell me, what idea did you think of this time?"

In the past few days, every time Zhang Yang broadcasted live, Chen Yanguang was there for almost the whole process, and there were no shortage of gifts and barrage.

Is it because the rich second generation can't find a better pastime?

From what he said just now, you can tell that the night life is wonderful.

So Zhang Yang always felt that this guy was looking for inspiration in the live broadcast room.

The last time Chen Yanguang said please have supper, but in the end, he wanted to take the road of publicity and buy fake products to deceive his father.

Here it is again, and it's clear there's another bad idea.

"Hey, your eyes are like torches, Master Zhang."

"Don't be a master, you call me that, I always feel that you want to cheat me." Zhang Yang said angrily.

"Hey! What are you talking about, am I such a person?"

Chen Yanguang put away his smile, leaned closer, and whispered in Zhang Yang's ear:

"Do you know the cultural relic robbers in the 90s?"

"Huh?!" Zhang Yang's curiosity was immediately aroused, and he hurriedly asked Chen Yanguang: "What is it? Tell me in detail!"

"Say a fart here, in case someone overhears, I'm going to step on the sewing machine."

"Go, go, go to my car and show you something."

……

Chen Yanguang's drama is very full, and it's like a spy joint.

And what he took out, at first glance, really looks like that.

What he handed to Zhang Yang was a palm-sized golden Buddha, the surface of which had turned black in some places.

The face of the Buddha statue, the meat bun of the Buddha's head, and the lotus seat underneath are all very finely carved.

The base was sealed with wood. Zhang Yang weighed it in his hand. The thing was not heavy, so it should be hollow. The wooden base was used to prevent the statue from deforming.

"Is it true?"

Chen Yanguang looked at Zhang Yang eagerly, waiting for him to open his mouth.

"Whether it's true or not depends on what you bought it for. This is indeed a gilt Buddha statue from the late Qing Dynasty."

"What year did you buy it?"

"Bought according to cultural relics."

"Huh?" Zhang Yang turned his head and glanced at Chen Yanguang.

The rich second generation with thick eyebrows and big eyes, why do they always want to eat in prison?

Being looked at by Zhang Yang felt a little guilty, Chen Yanguang explained:

"Do you remember the cultural relic robber I told you about?"

"The one in the 90s, Li Hetao, it is said that he got this out of the museum."

Seeing that what Chen Yanguang said was true, Zhang Yang picked up his phone on the spot and searched for the name he said.

There really is such a person, a thief of cultural relics who guards against himself, resold more than 200 cultural relics, and ate peanuts more than ten years ago.

And according to the report, most of the cultural relics that this person resold were Buddha statues from the Qing Dynasty, and many pieces were lost and could not be recovered.

Look at the Buddha statue in Zhang Yang's hand...

"Damn it!" Zhang Yang immediately threw something to Chen Yanguang: "Brother, are you serious?"

Isn't it good for the rich second generation to buy some fake products and lose some money?
Does it have to be so big?

"Is it true?" Chen Yanguang's eyes lit up.

He held the Golden Buddha in his hand, looked at it over and over again, and muttered:

"This time I finally bought the real thing."

Seeing him like this, Zhang Yang calmed down instead.

He bought the things, no matter how many years the sentence is, it has nothing to do with him.

And this "cultural relic" is not necessarily true.

The Buddha statue is indeed from the late Qing Dynasty, and the "item information" clearly states that it was produced in 1839.

However, there are not many gilded Buddha statues from the Qing Dynasty that have been preserved to modern times, and the item information does not say that this is "a certain temple was stolen".

Maybe it's just a seller who made up a backstory to sell it for a high price?

This kind of operation is not uncommon in the antique industry. The bowls used by Zhu Chongba, the chopsticks used by Emperor Qianlong, the hairpins of Empress Dowager Cixi... the prices of things that are originally very common can be more than ten times higher than those of historical figures.

"Brother Guang, how did you get this thing?"

"You won't tell me that this thing was given to you by the cultural relic thief in a dream?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.

"Of course not, I bought it and found it on your Douyin account."

Chen Yanguang looked at Zhang Yang with very innocent eyes.

"Don't you? Brother, don't make trouble, how can my account have such a channel?"

"Yes, you click on the video of the episode where you identified Tang Cai, and I will find it for you."

Zhang Yang was skeptical, and began to flip through the video on the company's comyin account.

Director Jin has always been in charge of video editing, and Zhang Yang himself really hasn't watched it much.

"I found it, is it this video?"

"Well, you scroll down..."

"Stop! Just this comment."

The comment that Chen Yanguang found came from an account called [Find me for returning overseas cultural relics].

This account posted the following comment:
"Anyone who has done repatriation of cultural relics knows that this kind of Tang Cai is easy to buy, and the procedures are legal, and the price is also low, which is much cheaper than buying in China."

Only one like, posted a week ago.

Zhang Yang took a deep look at Chen Yanguang.

How did you find this bottom comment?
The only like, should be the person who posted the account himself, right?
"You bought it from him?"

"Yeah, I can find such a way."

Chen Yanguang smiled crookedly, and then showed off:

"I watched your live broadcast the other day, and there was a bullet screen saying [I feel that many people who come to appraise treasures are looking for buyers], I saw it, it makes sense!"

"And then I started looking in the comments."

"You found it yourself?"

Zhang Yang seemed to have seen a perversion.

There are more than 100 videos under the Douyin account of the company, and this person actually reads the comment section one by one?
"I don't have that spare time. I paid a few younger sisters to help find it."

"Yes, reasonable." Zhang Yang nodded: "And then?"

"Then, I got in touch with this person!"
