Chapter 212: The Auction House's Approach
Ding Shengnan has not appeared again since he appeared in Zhixiang Middle School that day, drove Lin Feng out, and questioned Lin Feng. And those guys who disappeared from the Ruyi Hotel never appeared again.
Lin Feng's life slowly became extremely dull. Except for having more contact with Hanano Masaka in school every day, Lin Feng has not been in contact with anyone in the past few days.
Gao Fengyi's pace of external expansion finally had to stop for a while. The reason is very simple, the Qilin Gang put on this kind of lifeless posture, and fought desperately with Gao Fengyi and other gangs against the Qilin Gang several times, causing too much movement and being targeted by the police.
No one on the road wants to get into trouble with the police. The result is naturally self-evident, almost at the same time that Gao Fengyi stopped attacking the Qilin Gang, several other forces also stopped acting against the Qilin Gang.
All of a sudden, the underground forces in the coastal area can be said to be peaceful and calm.
The sudden calm made Lin Feng feel a little uncomfortable, and for a while, Lin Feng was full of thoughts about finding these guys. However, the current situation is that there is no trace of these guys at all, not even the slightest clue.
Lin Feng could only accept this fact and wait quietly. However, one thing Lin Feng was sure of in his heart was that these guys would definitely appear. Their reappearance is only a matter of time.
The auction house finally called Lin Feng, and several well-known domestic antique experts had been invited to the auction house.
It has been a long time since the auction house agreed to find an expert for identification, which once again proves a problem, experts are not so easy to invite.
Lin Feng happily agreed, and appeared at the auction house on time. And the jade pendant in his hand was also placed on the table again.
The experts invited by the auction house are all well-known in China, and several of them carefully appraised this jade pendant. Of course, Chu Fang was also invited to the scene, after all, he was the only antique expert who proposed that this was a fake jade pendant.
However, the results of this appraisal were quite unexpected, and the opinions of several experts who came could not be unanimous! Some said that they were true, and some said that they were false!
This made Lin Feng look at the two experts who said that the jade pendant was fake, it seemed that these two experts still had some real skills.
Lin Feng knew very well in his heart that this jade pendant was fake......
When such a situation occurred again, the auction house really felt a headache, and arranged for a few experts to rest, and the staff of the auction house left Lin Feng.
In a quiet office, the staff of the auction house said to Lin Feng with a look of embarrassment: "Mr. Lin, these are the most famous experts in China, and you have also seen the appraisal results, this is really a difficult thing to do! Some experts say it is true, and some experts say it is false, what should you do? You have to make up your mind." ”
"What ideas can I have?" Lin Feng shook his head lightly and said, "This matter has to be solved by your auction house, right?
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the staff member of the auction house frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Lin, wait a minute, I will ask our general manager to talk to you." ”
Lin Feng nodded, didn't say anything more, and watched the staff of the auction house leave the office.
After a short time, the office door was pushed open again, and a middle-aged man in his forties walked in. This middle-aged man looks like a standard workplace dress, with a suit and tie, and a pair of gold-wire glasses on the bridge of his nose, giving people the feeling of a successful person.
"Let me introduce myself, I'm Zhang Yuxiang. Zhang Yuxiang took the initiative to stretch out his hand.
Lin Feng stood up and shook hands with Zhang Yuxiang, who politely invited Lin Feng to sit down. Immediately, Zhang Yuxiang sat opposite Lin Feng and said: "I won't say much politely, I am the general manager of the auction house, this time the matter of jade pendant, I want to negotiate with Mr. Lin to solve it, it is not a way to continue to identify it like this, what does Mr. Lin think?"
"I don't know how Manager Zhang wants to solve it?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.
Zhang Yuxiang had never appeared in front of Lin Feng before, and this time he came forward to talk to Lin Feng, and it seemed that the auction house was indeed feeling the pressure.
However, Zhang Yuxiang is an old fritter in the workplace, completely an eight-sided and exquisite character, cleared his throat and said: "Mr. Lin, in fact, the matter about this jade pendant is really a bit strange for our auction house. ”
"Oh?" Hearing Zhang Yuxiang's words, Lin Feng asked suspiciously, "What's strange?"
"On the day this jade pendant was sold, we followed the auction winner's wishes and transferred it to Mr. Lin, right?" Zhang Yuxiang said.
"That's right. Lin Feng nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Zhang Yuxiang in front of him, and said in his heart: "This guy is not simple, isn't he?"
Zhang Yuxiang also nodded and said, "However, after this jade pendant was transferred to Mr. Lin for a period of time, Mr. Lin came to the door again and said that this jade pendant was fake, which is really a very strange thing for our auction house." After all, this jade pendant has been in Mr. Lin's hands for a while. ”
"Hehe!" Lin Feng smiled noncommittally and said, "Manager Zhang, do you mean to say that this jade pendant was faked by me?"
"No, it doesn't mean that, Mr. Lin, don't get me wrong. Although Zhang Yuxiang said this, he showed a sly and relieved smile.
That's right, when Zhang Yuxiang said these words, he was actually alluding to this jade pendant, which may have been counterfeited during the time in Lin Feng's hands.
If the auction house really shirks it like this, it can completely clear itself. But this is the case, but it is difficult to do, and if this matter spreads, the reputation of the auction house will inevitably be damaged. After all, Lin Feng is just a teacher, not a person in the antique circle, interlaced like a mountain, most people will definitely not believe that Lin Feng can find a fake fake!
Besides, the authenticity of this jade pendant is difficult to distinguish, if there really is such an awesome counterfeiter, it will already be famous in this circle. But in fact, no one knows that such a person exists.
In other words, Zhang Yuxiang's statement only exists in theory, and if you really want to do this, it is actually a completely unworkable thing.
Otherwise, the auction house would not choose to find an expert to identify this jade pendant, but would shirk it the time Lin Feng came to the door.
But now, the auction house has to do this, because the appraisal results of this jade pendant are really unexpected, which makes the auction house feel a big headache.
When Zhang Yuxiang said this, he was nothing more than putting pressure on Lin Feng and wanted to solve this matter in other ways.
"What does Manager Zhang mean?" Lin Feng looked at Zhang Yuxiang and said, "If you have something to say, please say it directly, I don't like to beat around the bush, if Manager Zhang speaks in this way again, I don't think we need to talk about it anymore." ”
"Good. Zhang Yuxiang looked appreciative and said: "Mr. Lin is really a happy person, since this is the case, then I will say it directly! This jade pendant is now being appraised by well-known experts in China, but the appraisal results are very different. We really don't have much to do, and we want to deal with this matter privately with Mr. Lin at one time. ”
"Well, I'd like to hear Manager Zhang's solution. Lin Feng nodded and asked with interest.
"Mr. Lin, regardless of whether our auction house is responsible or not, this jade pendant always goes out of our auction house. Zhang Yuxiang first cleared the auction house before continuing: "Since there are experts who have identified it as true, we might as well believe the experts! In addition, if Mr. Lin wants to auction this jade pendant, our auction house will definitely help." Even if Mr. Lin does not put it for auction in our auction house, we will give Mr. Lin a strong proof to prove that this jade pendant is real. ”
"This is the solution that Manager Zhang said?" Lin Feng asked: "But there are also experts who have identified this jade pendant as fake, and that is also a nationally renowned expert invited by the auction house this time, how can you say this?"
"I'm going to talk to Mr. Lin about that. Zhang Yuxiang smiled mysteriously and said, "As for the words of these experts, Mr. Lin might as well choose not to believe it." As for the final appraisal results, we will ask those experts whose appraisal is true to issue an appraisal certificate. ”
Obviously, the auction house is ready to spend money to settle the matter this time. One is to give Lin Feng some money, let Lin Feng choose to calm things, and then let those experts who are identified as true give an appraisal certificate.
Of course, as long as the appraisal certificate is issued, the appraisal fee will cost some money.
As for those experts whose identification is not real, it is better to say that they will be given hard money and sent them back.
In fact, before the appraisal, the auction house wanted to secretly give these experts some money, so that they could unanimously identify the authenticity of this jade pendant.
It's a pity that in some circles, reputation is money, and no one will do anything that damages their reputation for a little money.
What's more, as long as these experts are invited, hard work is always indispensable. In addition, if you have to issue an appraisal certificate, you will have more money in hand.
Those experts who identified the jade pendant as real were also appraised based on their experience, and they were not afraid to issue an appraisal certificate at all, because they already believed that the jade pendant was genuine!
Lin Feng looked at Zhang Yuxiang in front of him, this guy really deserves to be an old fritter in the workplace, he is really treacherous and slippery!
"I don't agree!" Lin Feng smiled and said, "Manager Zhang, I am a very real person, it is true, it is true! It is false, it is false, I will not agree to your method in this matter!"
