Chapter 857: The Great Jade Sea

……

In the suite of the Xiangjiang Hilton Hotel, Chen Bangda, who is nearly ninety years old and still healthy, holds a list of antiques to be exhibited tomorrow, and his brows are slightly furrowed.

After a long time, he sighed, put down his hand Chinese and said to the slightly short and fat old man in an indigo jacket next to him: "It seems that we lost this competition again!"

The short and fat old man also nodded with a wry smile and said, "Yes...... Alas, I lose every year, and if it weren't for the fact that we had to take into account the overall situation and strengthen the relationship between the two sides, I wouldn't have wanted to participate in this Rausch exchange meeting a long time ago...... I wondered, this Xiangjiang has been back for more than four years, and the army is stationed, it can still run, why do we have to come here to suffer from the collection association!"

Looking at the growing anger on his companion's face, Chen Bangda couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.

The exchange between the two antique collecting associations was decided in the 80s, just like the famous 'table tennis diplomacy' between China and the United States, and the state also hopes that domestic official or non-governmental organizations can strengthen exchanges with the major organizations in Xiangjiang, so that the people of Xiangjiang can understand the mainland and reduce the turmoil caused by the return of Xiangjiang.

Originally, this was nothing, but what can be exchanged by the collection association?

In addition to competing for their respective appraisal capabilities, of course, it is about the exchange of collections between the two sides, commonly known as 'Doubao'!

Originally, the Chinese collecting world of Nuoda was a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. There are countless treasures in the folk collection. Don't be afraid of a projectile at all. But the bad thing is that in that ten years of turmoil, the four old, most of the folk precious antiques were looted, in addition to most of them were smashed and burned, the remaining part of the flow into the major national museums, and the private hands were basically hidden deeper, not daring to take it out!

So from the 80s to the present, almost every year of the treasure fight is lost by the mainland!

Of course, this is the case. In addition to the reasons just mentioned, the main reason is that private collecting in China is just emerging, and the wealthy are far from being as interested in investing in art as they were later.

Therefore, the mainland collection association can only be supported by a group of appraisers who have a little money in their hands and rely on Taobao to pick up leaks and make a little money.

Far from Xiangjiang, the developed economy and the collection of Chinese and foreign artworks have made the collection rooms of many wealthy people full of precious artworks.

It is better to take out a few random pieces than to destroy the interior for ten years.

For example, this time, Chen Lao and the others had already prepared a Ming Dynasty imperial kiln 'Blue and White Haitao Dragon Pattern Plate' as the finale! Originally, they thought that they should win this time!

As a result, I got the news in the past few days that the Xiangjiang Collection Association is preparing the finale antique is a 'Song Dynasty Brother Kiln Sunflower Mouth Plate'!

If this news is true. Then you don't have to participate in this Doubao, they will also lose!

Thinking of every time Doubao loses. The contemptuous eyes of those Xiangjiang people, even the old man Chen, who is nearly ninety years old, is also angry in his heart!

"Let's find a way ......!"

As soon as Chen Bangda's words fell, a knock on the door rang.

"Come in!"

"Teacher, I'm back!" As he spoke, Fu Kun strode in with a happy face.

When he saw the short and fat old man sitting next to Chen Bangda, he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, "President Yan, I didn't expect you to be there?"

"Hehe, I'm here to discuss something with Old Chen!Hey, Liu Dong, why are you here?" Looking at Liu Dong, who walked in after Fu Kun, Yan Yushan couldn't help but say with surprise.

"Xiaodong, here?"

Because Fu Kun blocked his vision, Old Man Chen didn't notice Liu Dong coming in at the first time, but as soon as Yan Yushan's voice fell, Chen Bangda had already stood up.

"Old Chen, President Yan!"

Liu Dong hurriedly stepped forward and said.

He is very familiar with Chen Lao, and he also knows Yan Yushan, the president of the domestic collection association.

"Xiaodong, aren't you in the United States, why did you run into this stinky boy!" Old Man Chen, who looked surprised, came up and pulled Liu Dong's arm and said.

"I just flew back to Xiangjiang from the United States yesterday, mainly to do some company business. As for Brother Fu, hehe, we met when we were visiting Hollywood Road, and when we heard that Chen Lao and everyone were here, we rushed over to meet him!"

"Hollywood?"

Being in an antique shop, Chen Bangda naturally has a deep understanding of the three major antique streets in Xiangjiang!

"How is it, have you gained anything?" After Chen Lao's eyes lit up, he grabbed Liu Dong's arm and said a little impatiently.

If ordinary people forget it, but Liu Dong is different, this kid has been in the industry for less than two years, and there are hundreds of treasures that can be picked up, and there are more than ten pieces that can reach the national treasure level, regardless of luck or strength, all young and middle-aged collectors in China, and even many older generation collectors are top-level, and it just so happens that now the collection association has encountered difficulties in this treasure fight, so Mr. Chen has some expectations for Liu Dong inexplicably.

Even Yan Yushan next to him couldn't help but show a look of expectation, he had already heard of Liu Dong's ability, if he could provide a priceless antique now, then their winning rate would definitely increase greatly this time.

It's just that Liu Dong hasn't spoken yet, and Fu Kun next to him can't help but say, "Teacher, this time I picked up a treasure with Liu Dong alone!"

"Really, show me!" Chen Bangda, who was originally just asking casually, was very interested.

After agreeing, Fu Kun hurriedly put the hard cardboard box in his arms on the coffee table next to him, and then carefully took out the authentic handwriting of Wang Yuanqi he had just bought from inside, and unfolded it on the coffee table little by little.

Chen Lao is a master of intensive study of calligraphy and painting, nicknamed 'Chen Banqi', as long as a painting is unfolded half a foot, he can see the truth and falsehood, at this moment almost at a glance, this painting is one of the four kings of the early Qing Dynasty Wang Yuanqi's authentic work "Lake and Mountain Idle Residence"! It is also a fine product in Wang Yuanqi's paintings.

In normal times, if his apprentice could receive such a fine painting of the Four Kings, Chen Lao would definitely be very happy.

But now, after looking at the whole painting, Chen Lao's face couldn't help but show a hint of pity.

And with the same expression as him, there was Yan Yushan next to him.

It's a pity, because although this painting is good, it can't help tomorrow's Doubao.

"By the way, Xiaodong, what about the antiques you picked up?" Thinking that there was Liu Dong behind him, Chen Lao's originally depressed mood was lifted again.

"Me?" Liu Dong, who didn't expect the topic to shift to himself so quickly, reacted after being slightly surprised, "I bought a piece of Yushanzi!"

"Where is Yushanzi?" said Yan Yushan, a domestic jade appraisal, and everyone became very interested.

"It's too big to hold, so I put it in the car when I came up!"

As soon as Liu Dong's voice fell, Yan Yushan couldn't help but say, "Quick, bring it up and show us!"

"Yes, yes, go get it, get it!"

Seeing that the two old men were so anxious, Liu Dong wondered in his heart, so he had to turn around and go downstairs to get his own Yushanzi.

Originally, he thought that he had found a precious painting of Wang Yuanqi, and he would be able to show his face in front of the master and get a few words of praise, but he thought that the other party would divert his attention after watching it for less than a minute, and he didn't even say a word!

However, in the face of the two respected elders, even if Fu Kun had resentment in his heart, he didn't dare to say anything.

It didn't take long for Liu Dong to walk back again with a huge cardboard box!

After putting the carton on the ground and opening it, among the messy filling materials is a crystal clear high-grade Hetian Yushanzi!

If the quality and color of the jade are enough to make anyone who sees it move, then its poor carving is enough to make anyone who knows how to appreciate jade frown.

"How can there be such a thing, it's really such a good material for nothing!" After reading it for a while, Chen Bangda couldn't help but shake his head.

Although he is proficient in calligraphy and painting appraisal, he is also rough in jade appreciation, but the carving of this jade mountain is really flattering, even anyone who does not know much about jade appraisal can see that its artistic value is really limited!

But to everyone's surprise, Yan Yushan did not deny the value of this jade mountain from the beginning, but frowned tightly, as if he had encountered some difficult puzzle, and then took out a magnifying glass and observed it carefully and carefully from Yushanzi little by little.

Seeing him like this, after several people looked at each other, no one made a sound to disturb!

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Chen Bangda more or less understood that this jade mountain was probably not as ordinary as they imagined, otherwise the old friend who had studied jade identification all his life would not have the same expression as he is now.

Thinking of this, Old Man Chen beckoned to Liu Dong.

Then the three of them left the living room and walked to the bedroom next to them and stood still, Chen Lao asked, "Xiaodong, how did you get this jade mountain?"

Hearing this, Liu Dong and Fu Kun glanced at each other, and the latter said, "Master, this is what Xiaodong bought from Jinbao Pavilion Renquan, is there any problem?"

"There's no problem, but it seems that this time Xiaodong, you have found another amazing thing!"

"Amazing thing?" Liu Dong repeated!

Of course he knew it was something great, but he didn't know anything about where it came from.

"Well, even if you usually encounter a first-class cultural relic-level jade boutique, Lao Yan can be identified in no more than 10 minutes, and now almost twenty minutes have passed, but every result shows that your jade mountain is not an ordinary thing!" After a pause, Old Man Chen's face showed a hint of remembrance, "The last time I saw Lao Yan like this, it was more than ten years ago when the 'Great Jade Sea of Pure Mountain' was born!"
