Chapter 135: Turning Point

After a while, Meng Zitao handed over all the contents of the secret room. He walked out of the secret room and examined all the porcelain on the floor, all of which were high-quality fakes. And each piece of porcelain is imitated against the museum's valuable cultural relics, and the level of the imitators is very high, coupled with excellent craftsmanship, it is enough to confuse the real with the fake.

It's just that, like the high-imitation porcelain that I got from Sanguan before, these porcelains have not been out of the kiln for a long time, and they still look like they are still on fire.

"Mrs. Song, please be honest, where did these high imitation porcelains come from?" Meng Zitao said as he looked at the woman next to him.

"I don't know. The woman still had a frightened look on her face, but she didn't say what Meng Zitao wanted.

"You even know the location of this secret room, do you know where these high imitation porcelain come from?" Lu Yiqing pretended to be black-faced and shouted loudly.

"I knew about this chamber when it was built, but I never asked about the contents of it, and I don't usually go into this place, and my husband doesn't take the initiative to tell me where the contents come from. The woman said with a look of wrongedness.

Lu Yiqing felt that she was stubborn, and she was a little angry in her heart: "You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be recorded as testimony, and you will be legally responsible for what you say, I hope you don't make mistakes!"

However, the woman still said that she didn't know the origin of the porcelain, and Meng Zitao knew that he couldn't ask now, so he asked her to take her to the police station.

After that, Meng Zitao began to check the contents of the brocade box, and when he opened it, he found that the antiques in the brocade box were all genuine, and the value was quite valuable, which was a rare masterpiece.

Finally, there was a calligraphy and painting brocade box, which Meng Zitao opened, and inside was a painting, which looked like it had been some years old.

Meng Zitao put on gloves, put the scroll on the table, and carefully unfolded it, and saw a landscape painting appear in front of everyone.

After Meng Zitao saw the content and inscription of the scroll, he was surprised, this was actually Guo Xi's "Traveler in the Mountains and Streams" that Yun Dingsong had stolen. Didn't this picture say that it had been handed down to Xiangshan? How could it appear here! Or was it an imitation?

Based on observation, Meng Zitao thought that this should not be a fake, and the result given by the ability was the same, so unless Yun Dingsong lost a fake, otherwise this painting should be the stolen work.

After checking everything, Meng Zitao and the others checked the entire house again, and then packed up their things and returned.

With those high-imitation porcelain testimony, although Song Zhiwei still wanted to quibble, in addition to the physical evidence, there was also the evidence of the fat director of the TV station, Song Zhiwei was completely defeated, and honestly explained everything he knew.

However, after learning the facts, everyone entered a dead end again, because the high imitation porcelain in Song Zhiwei's hands was provided by Lao Hu, however, everyone who had contact with Lao Hu didn't know that he still had such resources in his hands.

As for Song Zhiwei's re-development and downline, it is all up to him to decide, including cooperating with Sanguan, using TV program packaging, etc., all of which are his own decisions. It was precisely because he couldn't contact the old fox that he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he wanted to get rid of everything in his hand.

Therefore, now for Meng Zitao and others, they have undoubtedly fallen into a dead end, and the investigation is somewhat unsustainable.

Originally, Meng Zitao thought that he could follow the vine and catch the porcelain maker, but he didn't expect it to be another twist and turn, and it was really depressing to think about.

In addition, about the painting, according to Song Zhiwei, the painting was obtained when he went to Xiangjiang some time ago, and he originally wanted to give it to a big guy, but he didn't expect the big guy to be investigated, so the painting has not been sent out.

In this way, Meng Zitao is basically certain that the painting found should be the one lost by Yun Dingsong.

At noon, Meng Zitao took Lu Yiqing to find a restaurant for dinner. Seeing that Meng Zitao was not very happy, Lu Yiqing smiled and said: "I don't think you should worry about this, as the saying goes, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and there will always be a day when things will come to light." ”

That being said, this kind of thing should happen sooner rather than later, otherwise some collectors will suffer huge losses as a result. ”

Meng Zitao shook his head and sighed, and immediately he smiled at Lu Yiqing again: "I also know that things are not in a hurry, but I can't help but feel a little anxious in my heart." Forget it, let's not talk about it, let's eat first. ”

Meng Zitao's psychological quality is very good, and after a while, he no longer dwells on this matter and chats with Lu Yiqing while eating.

"You...... Be careful!"

Meng Zitao just said a word, and someone suddenly quarreled not far away, and then something flew towards Lu Yiqing's head, fortunately, he was quick to move, and hurriedly pressed Lu Yiqing's head down, and the thing passed through Lu Yiqing's head and smashed onto the opposite window sill, and it fell apart with a "bang".

Lu Yiqing only reacted at this time, and when he saw the broken porcelain pieces not far away, he couldn't help but be a little afraid, thanks to Meng Zitao, if he was hit by this thing, he would have to break his head and bleed.

So, Lu Yiqing was angry, and scolded the two people who were not far away: "What's the matter with you TM, this is a public place, not your private territory!"

It was a well-dressed middle-aged man who threw things just now, and he said apologetically: "Brother, I'm really sorry, I was angry just now, I didn't expect the consequences, I apologize to you, and I'm willing to compensate you for your mental loss, and your list is counted on my head." ”

Seeing that the other party was so polite, although Lu Yiqing was dissatisfied in his heart, but since he didn't have anything to lose, he just muttered a few more words.

At this time, the middle-aged man who spoke just now noticed Meng Zitao who was sitting opposite Lu Yiqing, and his face showed a look of surprise: "May I ask if it is Meng Zitao and Teacher Meng over there?"

Meng Zitao said yes.

The middle-aged man showed a look of surprise on his face, and hurriedly ran to Meng Zitao to say hello, and then introduced himself and briefly explained the situation of the dispute just now.

The middle-aged man's name is Wei Feng, and the other is his Tibetan friend Zhou Xiangyu, yesterday they exchanged a collection of similar value, Wei Feng took out a jade bottle, and Zhou Xiangyu took out a Wanli colorful porcelain.

Yesterday, because Wei Feng suddenly had an emergency, the porcelain didn't take a closer look, so he went back first, because the two of them had communicated before, and Wei Feng felt more relieved. Unexpectedly, when he finished the matter and admired the porcelain he had just replaced, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, thinking that the thing was a fake.

So, Wei Feng asked Zhou Xiangyu out again today, wanting to solve this matter, of course Zhou Xiangyu refused, he thought that there was no problem with things, so as he spoke, the two of them argued, and as a result, Wei Feng was excited, so he threw out the porcelain in his hand.

Knowing what happened, Meng Zitao shook his head secretly, even if he found out that it was a fake, don't be so excited, it's okay to smash things, if you smash people, it will be a big trouble.

Wei Feng's meaning is very simple, that is, let Meng Zitao give them a review, and Zhou Xiangyu also agrees.

The porcelain that has been torn apart is very easy to identify, at least in terms of glaze, at a glance, so even if they don't need Mencius to comment on them, they can know the problem with this porcelain.

However, after Meng Zitao picked up a piece of porcelain, he suddenly found that this porcelain was actually the kind of high imitation that had just been discovered, and it must have come from the same person.

So, Meng Zitao hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhou, I don't know if it is convenient for you to tell me the origin of this porcelain?"

Because of the eyes, Zhou Xiangyu was very uncomfortable, and he hated the seller: "I bought this porcelain from an antique shop called Gu Fengzhai in Shancheng. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Xiangyu glared at Wei Feng angrily: "If you think there is a problem with something, forget it, why do you want to smash it, now I can't even go to the store to settle the account!"

"Who told you not to admit it all the time, otherwise, I wouldn't be so excited!" Wei Feng also knew that he was a little wrong in this matter, and his tone was a little weak.

Zhou Xiangyu said angrily: "If you can point out a conclusive evidence, how can I not return the things to you, you are good, just smash the things, you have to give me an explanation for this matter!"

When Meng Zitao heard this, he was very surprised, but he didn't expect that the clues that had just been interrupted would be picked up again.

Wei Feng was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, my Yuan Dynasty jade bottle can be sold to you cheaper." ”

Zhou Xiangyu snorted coldly: "Now let's talk about your problem, you said that your jade bottle is from the Yuan Dynasty, but after I went back, I also found that it was not at all, but considering that it was almost too much, I didn't bother with you, you are ...... good."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Feng interrupted him: "Hey, what do you mean, even if you are dissatisfied with me, you can't talk nonsense!"

"What nonsense?!"

Zhou Xiangyu smiled angrily: "Then let Teacher Meng evaluate the theory!"

As he spoke, he took out the jade and politely asked Meng Zitao to help comment.

The bottle is an ancient wine container, with many ring feet underneath, hollowed out, and the middle can be lit to heat the wine in the vessel. Generally speaking, the Shang and Zhou dynasties and the Han Dynasty are most common in bronze and lacquered wood products, and jade is relatively rare, occasionally seen in aristocratic mansions, is a status and status symbol, its craftsmanship level is very high, and there are high cultural relics and artistic value.

Meng Zitao observed that this jade bottle is more similar to a Han jade and phoenix pattern bottle in the Palace Museum, but the difference is that the body of this bottle is not straight and cylindrical, but hanging, not three-hoofed feet but round feet. However, in terms of ornamentation, this vessel imitates the Han bottle and is decorated with a hook grain pattern and a phoenix pattern.

"It's really not a work of the Yuan Dynasty. ”

Meng Zitao explained: "The gouge pattern was a common ornament on jade in the Qin and Han dynasties, and it was usually decorated with the main body, giving people a sense of fineness and complexity. The shape and decoration of this vessel is innovative on the basis of antique, which should be the artistic style of the early Ming Dynasty. However, it is simple and elegant in appearance, exquisite craftsmanship, and it is also a work of art with great collection and enjoyment value. ”
