Chapter 988: There is a Hidden Secret

Since Boss Hao is doing this business, he has the consciousness to do this business, and he will not be jealous, but when it comes to the piece that Meng Zitao has solved, he can't be calm, it is tens of millions of wealth, and all the things in this factory are not worth so much money!

What's more critical is that he sold 400,000 yuan, and the money he made was even less, and when the two were compared, it was normal for his mentality to be unbalanced.

Fortunately, Boss Hao did not lose his mind, and after a while, he adjusted his mentality and accepted his fate.

Since there is this kind of top-quality wood, it is definitely not suitable to slice according to the general situation, this is a good material for carving, the worker asked Meng Zitao how to cut, Meng Zitao thought about it, simply did not cut, ready to wait until the time of production to cut, so that it can also be used to the fullest.

"Teacher Meng, I don't know if you sell wood? I don't want all of them, just a short section. Bai Xinsheng asked, he was also happy to see the hunt at this time, and the red sandalwood in front of him could basically be said to be one of the best wood he had ever seen in his life.

As the old saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the same is true for a carving master like Bai Xinsheng, he is now no longer carving the general wood, only some precious wood he will do, but good wood is hard to find, especially the wood in front of him, if he misses it, he may not encounter it again in his life, so he can't help but ask.

For Meng Zitao, he asked Bai Xinsheng for a request, and he was not reluctant to make wood, so he also agreed.

Seeing that Meng Zitao agreed, Bai Xinsheng was quite happy, but then, he was a little embarrassed, and he was embarrassed that the price was not easy to set. The value of such top-quality wood is not simply determined by the market, but depends on the buyer's liking, as long as the buyer feels that the price is higher than his psychological bottom line, then there is no problem.

Bai Xinsheng thought about it for a moment, and suddenly thought that Meng Zitao had something to do with him, so he said: "By the way, Mr. Meng, I just said that you have something to do with me, I don't know what the matter is?"

Meng Zitao was curious at first why Bai Xinsheng suddenly changed the topic, but he immediately reacted and said with a smile: "Let's talk about this later, you can see how many materials are needed first." ”

Seeing Meng Zitao say this, Bai Xinsheng hesitated a little, he was really worried that it would be difficult for Meng Zitao to find him, so now he is soft.

Meng Zitao saw Bai Xinsheng hesitate, and felt that he should have misunderstood, since this is the case, then he should say it directly, so he invited Bai Xinsheng aside and explained the reason.

Bai Xinsheng suddenly said: "Oh, it turned out to be because of this, in fact, the prototype of the ornament is a mountain, but the mountain is actually a friend of mine, I met by chance, I think it is very meaningful, so I want to go back and carve the ornament. ”

Meng Zitao said, "Bai Lao, I don't know if it is convenient for you to introduce your friend to me?"

"It's going to be fine. Bai Xinsheng said: "But my friend is an antique dealer, and Shanzi is still in his hands, so I don't know very well, I hope you don't care." ”

Meng Zitao waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay. ”

Bai Xinsheng called his friend first and asked him if he was there, and the other party told him that Shanzi was still there, but he was meeting friends now, which was not very convenient, so he made an appointment to see him tomorrow.

After that, in order to express his gratitude, Meng Zitao cut a section according to Bai Xinsheng's request, worth about one million, Meng Zitao originally wanted to give some discounts, but Bai Xinsheng felt that he didn't help Meng Zitao anything, and he refused to live or die, so Meng Zitao didn't force it.

For the rest of the wood, Meng Zitao had to think carefully about what to carve before making a decision, so he simply asked Hou Yunbin for help and sent it back to Lingshi directly.

The next morning, Meng Zitao did not trouble Hou Yunbin again, but just asked the driver to send him to the antique shop agreed yesterday.

Meng Zitao walked to the door and saw Bai Xinsheng chatting and laughing with a fat old man in his fifties in the store, this person should be the friend he said.

Seeing Meng Zitao walk into the store, Bai Xinsheng hurriedly introduced the two parties, the old man's surname is Yu, his name is Yu Changyun, it is said that he has been in the antique business for more than ten years, and he is also a character in the Yinyang Yuanzi.

After a few polite words, everyone got down to business, and Yu Changyun took out the things directly.

Meng Zitao picked up Shanzi and observed, most of them were consistent with the content in the scroll, but there were some subtle differences, and the production time was also the time in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, which was exactly what he was looking for.

However, Meng Zitao was a little confused, he really couldn't figure out what these things were trying to mean, whether there was a treasure in them, or something else, he had no clue.

But anyway, Shanzi still has to buy it, maybe for the sake of Bai Xinsheng's face, Yu Changyun also gave some discounts.

After completing the transaction, everyone chatted for a while, because Meng Zitao still had a lot of things to do, and since the matter was settled, he offered his farewell.

Walking out of the antique shop, Meng Zitao felt that someone was following him, and he felt a little strange in his heart, he had never had a grudge with anyone in the past few days in Yinyang, how could someone follow him?

He saw a alleyway in front of him, walked in, and after a while, a ghostly man followed.

Meng Zitao looked at him with a sneer: "Friend, what are you doing with me?"

The man was startled by Meng Zitao, patted his chest and said, "Brother, do you want to scare me to death!"

Meng Zitao said: "I won't scare you to death, but if you talk nonsense, I'll beat you to death!"

The man smiled and said, "Friend, don't be so violent, I have a good thing here, do you want it?"

"Do you still have good things?" Meng Zitao sneered.

"That's, the stone statue of the Northern Wei Dynasty, you should know. ”

The man said: "If there is a piece of the Northern Song Dynasty Jun kiln, then it is enough in the collection circle, and if there is a stone statue of the Northern Wei Dynasty, then it can be proud in the collection circle." The preciousness of stone statues can be imagined, but the number of stone statues is now only a handful. ”

"It is said that Mr. Wang Shixiang, a collector and connoisseur of cultural relics, has only collected one stone statue from the Tang Dynasty, and some foreign museums are even more proud to have one or two stone statues of our country......

Meng Zitao interrupted: "Stop, stop, stop bragging, it's not that I haven't seen the stone statues of the Northern Wei Dynasty, why haven't I heard that you are so precious?"

"The ones on the market are all ordinary goods, but I'm different!" As he spoke, the man sneaked out the stone statue hidden in his arms.

I saw that this statue is white marble, there is a rectangular base under the statue, and a Buddha and two Bodhisattvas are carved in high relief on the seat. The head of the Buddha is crowned. Hand Shi fearless wish-wish seal, wearing a robe, with a flame pattern behind him, boat-shaped backlight, a kind face, the two Bodhisattvas are wearing high crowns, wearing robes. The base has an inscription to indicate who made it and when.

Meng Zitao looked at it fixedly, and was a little surprised in his heart, why is this statue actually genuine, did he meet a stupid liar who sells the real thing as a fake?

But on second thought, he felt that this probability should not be high, and another reason was that from the beginning, his intuition could sense that the other party had a strong malice towards him, and things were probably not simple.

So, he sneered: "You just talk about it, since things are so precious as you said, why don't you take them to the auction company to participate in the auction?"

The man smiled awkwardly: "It's not that my stuff has a bit of a wrong origin, but don't worry, this thing wasn't stolen." ”
