Chapter 209
Yu Yao raised his hand as a signal, and answered the phone, and Uncle Wang stopped talking.

"Is it convenient to talk?"

"I'm in a friend's car, you say, I listen."

Yang Sihai paused, "Forget it, it's a long story, please call me as soon as possible."

Yu Yao guessed that Yang Sihai was going to talk about the red sandalwood guqin paperweight, but he vaguely felt that there might be some troubles involved, "Okay, I'll call you as soon as I get back."

Pu Jie asked casually, "Who is it?"

In front of Uncle Wang, Yu Yao vaguely replied, "It's about Director He."

It was inconvenient for Pu Jie to ask after hearing this.At this moment, Uncle Wang began to regret again, if only the Kangxi multicolored platter was genuine.

Yu Yao is near, Uncle Wang is far away, Pu Jie sent to Yu Yao first, and then to Uncle Wang.Before parting, Uncle Wang asked for Yu Yao's phone number.

Back in Geguzhai, Yu Yao sat down and called Yang Sihai.

"That's right, Xiao Yu, I want to discuss something with you. Can we requisition your red sandalwood paperweight?"

"requisition?"

"Don't worry, we're just doing some research first. If we really need to keep it, then how much did you pay for it, plus the handling fee, and how much did you spend in total? We will allocate an equivalent expropriation fee." Yang Sihai said patiently. .

For this red sandalwood paperweight, Yu Yao has already taken out a small piece of jade, if the original price is taken away, Yu Yao doesn't care at all.

However, he has already opened it.

"Director Yang, I've already opened the question. This is a trick box! And it's definitely damaged." Yu Yao said this first, and then asked, "Since it's going to be requisitioned, the origin must be unusual?"

"Opened?" Yang Sihai suddenly raised his voice, "Is there anything inside?"

Yu Yao hesitated for a moment.Finally decided to tell the truth.

The value of this small piece of jade lies in what kind of jade it is and what hidden historical reasons it has.But it is not a formed jade after all, only such a tiny bit, besides, Yu Yao has another little jade figure in his hand.

The most important thing is that although Yu Yao intends to ask Cai Pengxi to have a look, he is already quite confident in his own eyesight, and it is expected that Cai Pengxi may not be able to see anything.

But what Yang Sihai said made him suddenly hopeful.The power of the Bureau of Special Cultural Relics Investigation is not comparable to that of anyone in the civil society. Perhaps, only they can investigate the real reason!

If you lie in your hands and don't understand it all the time, then it loses its meaning.It would be better to find out through the Special Cultural Relics Investigation Bureau.

"It's a small piece of jade..." Yu Yao went on to describe it in detail.

After listening, Yang Sihai said, "Sure enough, there is something hidden! But just listening to you, I still don't understand! Xiaoyu, can you give it to us together? We can allocate another expropriation fee for the small jade piece separately!"

Yang Sihai's voice seemed a little excited, and Yu Yao paused before saying, "It's easy to talk about the cost. But Director Yang, before talking about this, can you tell me the origin of this red sandalwood paperweight?"

Yang Sihai also paused, "Okay, then I'll tell you what I can say!"

Holding the phone, Yu Yao got up and locked the door of the store.

"During the Republic of China, there was a large cultural relic counterfeiting group. I wonder if you have heard of it?"

"I know that three words of cultural relics are half of the country; Tan Rusu started with fake paintings, and later involved in various antique categories."

"I know a lot! After liberation, the Tan family and some masters went to Taiwan Island. They are masters of counterfeiting and cultural relics appraisal. At that time, Lao Jiang searched for many cultural relics and treasures. In addition to the Forbidden City, there are many folk ones. , the Tan family played a big role."

Yu Yao just hummed, but suddenly thought of Tan Xinning, could it be that she is from the Tan family?And this red sandalwood paperweight has something to do with the Tan family?

"According to the information we have, before going to Taiwan Island, Tan Rusu lost a suitcase due to various special reasons. This suitcase was specially made with exquisite workmanship, and four small characters were embossed on one corner: Qinqi painting and calligraphy."

Yu Yao didn't respond, and continued to listen, just lighting a cigarette.

"You know the situation at the time, but he couldn't get it back. Later on Taiwan Island, he used various methods to inquire and search for it in the mainland, but it was unsuccessful. In the 90s, we happened to find this suitcase, but it was gone! According to various clues, three things were finally found in various places."

Yu Yao couldn't hold back at this time, "This guqin paperweight is the qin inside? But when I told you just now, you didn't react at all!"

"Listen to me, it's more complicated, and I didn't expect it! The clues extending from the cultural relics store in Dongjiang Province are not very clear. I just want to tell you in detail. Don't say it, you have such good eyesight, Maybe we still need your help."

"Okay, then you can continue."

Yang Sihai went on to say, "These three things are chess, books, and paintings. There are relatively many clues. And Qin has not been found, because the clues are the fewest, and the appearance and material have not been found out. And the chess, books, and paintings, They also have different appearances and materials; of course, we finally found something in common.”

"Everything is hidden?" Yu Yao asked.

"Yes! And they were all made in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. We also roughly found out that it was custom-made by Tan Rusu's father looking for skilled craftsmen. Tan Rusu's father was a great collector in the south of the Yangtze River in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. He had a rich collection of these four items hidden alone. Something must be extraordinary."

"It's far away." Yang Sihai cleared his throat, "After you told me, I arranged for an investigation and found out that this red sandalwood guqin paperweight in the warehouse of the cultural relic store in Dongjiang Province was confiscated in the 60s. passed away; but I found out from other sources that the original owner obtained this red sandalwood guqin paperweight in the late 40s, and it was something from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, so I thought of the leather case of "Qinqi, Calligraphy and Painting".

Yang Sihai sighed slightly when he said this, "However, it is said that in this suitcase, it was originally a sea yellow structure with layered compartments, and it was lost together. We have never found it, so we don't know the size of this piano." I can't be sure; but since I think of it, I want to take it back and study it, if not, I'll just return it to you; but you said that there is a small jade nugget hidden, then the possibility is very high!"

"Well, I understand. What are the other three chess pieces, books, and paintings made of?" Yu Yao thought to himself, the guqin-shaped paperweight is a very popular style of literary play, and Yang Sihai didn't expect it to be normal at first, and they were very interested in the qin The clues are too vague.

"The chess is a go board, made of red copper; the book is hand-rolled porcelain with white glaze at both ends, and the main body is purple glaze with eggplant skin; the painting is a thick jade board, made of Hetian jade, with bas-relief images on it." Yang Sihai explained.

"In this way, the hidden things must be different? Then what are the hidden things?" Yu Yao proceeded step by step, and finally asked the most important thing.
