Chapter 429 and 430: The Truth Revealed (2-in-1 Chapter)
That night, everyone did not leave, and they had dinner together at He Lao's house.
After dinner, everyone strongly asked to listen to the porcelain singing again, Li Yang did not disappoint everyone, and put the porcelain bottles in the courtyard again, with the faint breeze, the melodious sound slowly sounded in the courtyard.
This time, Dean Huang also felt a little wrong, and he was still in a somewhat impetuous mood, but after listening to the porcelain tune, he immediately became calm. After two times, Dean Huang felt a surprisingly peaceful feeling, and after listening to it for the third time, his mood did not fluctuate at all.
This discovery made Dean Huang even more surprised, and at the same time more envious, these porcelain can make a tune is enough to shock the world, I can't imagine that this kind of music also has the effect of calming the mind, so that the value of this set of porcelain has become greater.
He Lao smiled and glanced at Dean Huang, these songs, at first there was no problem, after listening to a lot, he could naturally feel the magical effect, He Lao looked at Huang Lao's appearance and knew that he had discovered this.
It was a long time after dinner, and this time it took more than forty minutes to listen before everyone was ready to go back to rest.
Li Yang and He Lao's villas are here, there are many vacant rooms in their homes, and all of them did not go to the hotel.
Wang Jiajia's uncle is the mayor of Mingyang City, Wang Jiajia did not stay here, and after Li Yang settled the people who lived on his side, he immediately drove Wang Jiajia to her uncle.
Sima Lin also has a home in Mingyang, and after saying goodbye to the experts, he also drove home by himself, he has been in Zhengzhou for a long time, and he hasn't been home for a long time, and he misses his wife and children a lot.
Dean Huang, Liu Lao and Yan Lao all lived in He Lao's villa, Dean Huang was the most familiar with He Lao, he lived here for a long time last time for the matter of the longevity bowl.
Qin Lao, Qin Lao's granddaughter, Bai Ming and Mao Lao all went to Li Yang's side, there were more vacant rooms in Li Yang's villa, and when he saw the luxury of Li Yang's villa, the surprise on Bai Ming's face never disappeared.
According to the decoration, specifications and area of Li Yang's villa, such a villa will definitely cost hundreds of millions. Bai Ming remembered that Li Yang said that he bought this villa for 10 million, and Bai Ming also thought about whether to find a small city to buy such a good villa to live in, 10 million, he sold the *** house and can make it up if he makes it up.
Qin Lao's granddaughter was very calm, but her eyes kept flashing with a different streamer, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After settling in, everyone went back to their rooms, and the comfort of the room made Bai Ming and each of them sigh again.
"Grandpa, I want to learn antiques from you!"
After tidying up his room, Qin Lao's granddaughter entered Qin Lao's room, looked at Qin Lao, and said very calmly.
"What?"
Qin Lao was stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up and looked at his granddaughter in surprise.
Others don't know, Qin Lao knows very well that the most hated thing about his granddaughter is antiques, not only this granddaughter, but also the other children and juniors in Qin's family don't like it very much, which makes Qin Lao very sad and entangled.
Qin Lao has used a lot of methods, and he wants to try to make his family accept antiques and accept ***. It's a pity that none of his children can really love ***, and they are more willing to go into business and make money. Old Qin is not young, and after a hundred years, he himself doesn't know what the fate of those treasures that come from this life will end.
Perhaps the children will always treasure it and pass it on to future generations, or it is possible that these children will sell these things for money as soon as they encounter difficulties.
Every time I think of this, Qin Lao's heart feels very uncomfortable, in fact, Qin Lao is not the only one who has this situation, many old experts are the same, there is no suitable heir at home, once he is gone, those treasures of *** will become things that change money in the family.
Wealthy families are better, especially if the family is not very good, and such things are more likely to occur.
This is not speculation, there have been many such cases in China, and the major auction companies have contacts with the children of some old experts, as for why the connection is needless to say.
Therefore, Qin Lao was so surprised when he heard his granddaughter say that he wanted to learn antiques, if his granddaughter can learn it, then his things will be inherited, and people who really love ancient culture can pass on these treasures well.
"Grandpa, I really want to learn, I didn't understand before, especially when I was a child, you always watched these dead things and didn't play with me, which made me tired of antiques, and today I found out that antiques also have such a magical side!"
Qin Lao's granddaughter's name is Qin Yujia, and when she said these words, her voice was still very flat, and her two big bright eyes were always looking at her grandfather.
"Okay, okay, as long as you want to learn, I'll teach you everything I know!"
Qin Lao nodded suddenly, and seemed very excited, no matter what the reason, as long as the granddaughter is willing to learn, this is the first time in the family that someone has taken the initiative to follow Qin Lao to learn antique knowledge.
In addition to being excited, Qin Lao also had a look of relief, her granddaughter was a little older, but she was very smart, as long as she was willing to learn, there were few things that she couldn't learn well.
Taking a step back, even if the granddaughter can't learn, she will always have a certain understanding of ancient culture, and at least she can pass on his *** treasures in the future. Maybe in the next generation or two, there will be people in the family who really love ancient culture, and these treasures can continue to be passed on at that time.
…………
Early the next morning, Dean Huang, Liu Lao and Yan Lao said goodbye and left, although the case was solved, there were still many things that Dean Huang needed to deal with, and he couldn't stay in Mingyang for too long.
Li Yang's longevity bowl exhibition is with Qianlong porcelain, Liu Lao needs to go back to take care of it, now the case is broken, and after the exhibition is over, Liu Lao will take this batch of porcelain to the next city to continue the exhibition, this is a plan made in advance, and it will not change because of the case.
It's just that when the next city comes, there will be three fewer pieces of porcelain on display, and the reason will not be explained to the outside world, only a few people will know.
Qin Lao and his granddaughter also left, the Shenlong Shenhu Yan was returned to Li Yang, Zhan Lu Sword Qin Lao had also seen it, and there was also the Xianyin bottle, he had no regrets on this trip to the Central Plains.
However, Qin Lao's biggest gain is that his granddaughter Qin Yujia is willing to follow him to learn ancient culture, this is what he is most happy about, his favorite granddaughter may inherit his mantle in the future, thinking about Qin Lao is very happy.
Bai Ming and Mao Lao didn't leave, they were okay when they returned to Zhengzhou, it was better to stay and appreciate Li Yang's collection.
Although Li Yang's collection is not much, but all of them are fine, after seeing the Ru kiln pen washing, the eyes of the two were straight, and then there was the genuine Xuande furnace, red glazed small bowl, all of which made the two full of praise.
The two of them were most shocked by Yan Liben's "Yonghui Courtiers", the two did not expect that this long-lost ancient painting was also in Li Yang's hands, this ancient painting Li Yang had been in his hands for a while, but because he had been very busy, he had not officially unveiled it to the public.
Especially after the two learned the origin of this ancient painting, their mouths opened wide and they didn't close for a long time. Li Yang's jade pillow was bought when he was with them, and none of them thought that there was something else in the jade pillow, hiding such a rare treasure.
After learning this, both of them were quite speechless, and Li Yang's level of picking up leaks can be regarded as reaching the peak level, not to mention that there is no one before and no one after him, at least in recent decades, no one can compare with Li Yang.
Bai Ming and Mao Lao also left after staying for a day, they left with Sima Lin, Zhengzhou was already busy preparing for the opening ceremony and opening auction, and there were many things that he needed to take care of in person.
Li Yang could only give an apologetic look at this, Li Yang wanted to help too, but he was temporarily left by the old man, but Li Yang also said that he would definitely appear on the scene on the day of the opening ceremony.
"Li Yang, sit down first!"
Sending Sima Lin and them away, Li Yang immediately returned to He Lao's villa, and the old man was sitting on the sofa in the study waiting for him.
"Old man, if you leave it behind, is there something wrong?"
Li Yang sat next to the old man, the old man looked up and shook his head with a chuckle, but there was a strong love in his eyes.
"I can't keep you if it's okay!" The old man glared at Li Yang, and continued: This case can be solved so quickly, you have a lot of credit, the clues you provided before were temporarily interrupted because of the death of classmate Zhu Yukun, but later the Xuande dice bowl opened a new road. The most important thing is that there is a connection between these two clues, and finally the task force seized this largest counterfeiting case since the founding of the People's Republic of China in the fastest time! ”
The old man chuckled, and Li Yang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the blue and white bowl that Zheng Kaida quickly sent in the end really became the key to solving the case, no wonder Liu Lao deliberately mentioned him when he introduced him.
"Gao Beiqi is a bloody lesson, just like he said, a mistake into a thousand hatreds, I really didn't expect that he began to smuggle cultural relics six years ago, and in six years he formed a huge smuggling gang, and finally started to fake the bag!"
The old man sighed again and handed a document on the table to Li Yang.
This document was much thicker than the one he got in the lounge, and it contained a highly complete confession, as well as the process of depravity he recounted, and Li Yang was more and more surprised the more he looked at it.
Six years ago, Gao Beiqi could be said to be a qualified old-timer, an old expert, and his son was also a senior expert in a foreign auction company, and his grandson was also admitted to university, and he also had a strong interest in antiques.
The Gao family is not prosperous, but at that time it was an antique family that everyone in the industry envied, and there were not many people who loved antiques like this, and not every expert's children would love *** and ancient culture as much as their parents.
It's a pity that Gao Beiqi's son is too greedy, unwilling to pay those monthly salaries, and colluded with others when he worked at the *** auction house, dropped a genuine product of the company, and auctioned off the fake one.
The son of Gao Beiqi who did such a thing for the first time was still very worried, but as the thing was photographed out and no one came to the door, he became bolder. This time, the income obtained was more than what he earned after 20 years of work, and gradually, the high-quality son was no longer satisfied with just going to work to earn a salary.
With the first time, there was a second time, and the good times didn't last long, and six years ago, when he was finally discovered when he did this for the fourth time, and the previous customers came to the door and asked the auction company to give them an explanation.
The auction company wants to send him to the police station, and Gao Beiqi's son understands that once he enters the police station, he will not be able to get out in this life, so he can only beg the company bitterly, willing to pay high compensation for the losses of the company and customers, as long as he does not call the police.
The son of Gao Beiqi lost all the money he earned, and he emptied all his savings in the past few years and it was not enough to pay for it, so in desperation, he could only ask his father, hoping that his father could help him get through this difficulty.
At that time, Gao Beiqi, who learned all this, was furious, scolded his son for being a bloody dog, and said that he would never care about this matter.
But after all, blood is thicker than water, and Gao Beiqi only has this one son, and he can't bear to spend his son's life in a prison in a foreign country in the future, which is also a painful blow to him.
In the end, Gao Beiqi still chose his son, but even if he sold all his *** products, he couldn't help his son pay off the amount of compensation demanded by the *** auction company, so he could only helplessly choose a point of no return.
This point of no return is the smuggling of cultural relics, and Gao Beiquan is the chief consultant of the Cultural Relics Bureau, which has very convenient conditions.
In the confession, Gao Beiqi also said something like this, he suspected that this was a game from the beginning, a game specifically aimed at him, but unfortunately, when it entered this game, it could never come out again.
Gao Bei completed three months, smuggled twelve precious cultural relics, and finally ransomed his son, thinking about washing his hands, but it was too late at this time, and it was not easy to get on the boat.
Moreover, the son of Gao Beiqi also discovered the high profits of smuggling cultural relics, so he strongly asked his father to continue to work, and his father was responsible for it at home, and he supported it abroad, making money and making a fortune together.
Gao Beiqi, who had already broken the jar, did not object this time, and joined forces with his son to continue the crime of smuggling cultural relics. In four years, they smuggled more than 200 pieces of various cultural relics, with a total amount of 500 million yuan, of which more than 200 million fell into the hands of Gao's father and son.
After having money, the mentality of high matching has gradually undergone some changes, his first-class products are slowly increasing, and there are more and more treasures, and gradually, his fame has become more resounding.
In four years, the team of high-quality smuggling of cultural relics was not just a few people at the beginning, but developed a huge gang of nearly 100 people, and almost all of Gao's relatives were involved except for his grandson.
This grandson was still excluded at the strong request of Gao Beiqi, and Gao Beiqi sent him to the United States to study very early, and also applied for a U.S. green card, because Gao Beiqi knew very well what he was doing and what the consequences would be if these things broke out.
Two years ago, when Gao Beiqi's son went to a cooperation point in Jingdezhen, he unexpectedly found a young genius who fired ancient porcelain, and this person was Zhu Yukun. At that time, Zhu Yukun happened to be a graduate internship, and when he saw the antique porcelain fired by Zhu Yukun, he immediately understood the value of this person with senior industry experience.
After that, he began to investigate the identity of this person, and when he learned that this young man was the son of Zhu Zhixiang, the maker of Zhu Visit, not only did he not have any surprise, but there was also a strong surprise.
He immediately thought of a better way to get rich.
It is to let Zhu Yukun burn the high imitation, they use it for sale, smuggling cultural relics in the past few years, they also have their own stable underground network, if these high imitations are sold, it is much stronger than the smuggling they have worked so hard to worry about.
At first, Gao Beiqi was actually opposed to this, because he understood the difference between a high imitation case and a smuggling case, and the high imitation case came quickly, but the hidden danger was greater.
It's a pity that the other members of the gang who have been carried away by the interests all agree with Gao Beiqi's son's suggestion and are willing to do a less risky counterfeiting business. Gradually, what Gao Beiqi said in this gang no longer weighed as much as his son, although he was still the mastermind, he no longer had absolute control.
In desperation, Gao Beiqi can only follow everyone, at this time all the people are grasshoppers on a rope, and they don't distinguish each other at all.
Coincidentally, the nephew of one of the Jingdezhen members of the gang was Zhu Yukun's classmate, and they later used this to kidnap Zhu Yukun, and have been secretly hiding in Jingdezhen since then.
And Zhu Yukun's classmate also became a member of this gang because of interests.
After that, it was time for them to force Zhu Yukun to frantically fire high imitations, because with such a first-class expert as Gao Beiqi personally in charge, Zhu Yukun couldn't deliberately fire anything of poor quality, let alone leave his mark on any part of the porcelain.
Zhu Yukun tried to do this, but he was discovered by Gao Beiqi and suffered severe punishment.
After having enough high-quality imitation porcelain, Gao Beiqi's son immediately took it out of the country to sell it everywhere, and in just one year, he accumulated nearly a billion fortunes, which was twice as much as the hard-earned money they had smuggled for four years before.
However, the good times did not last long, and the high imitation they sold was still exposed, after all, these porcelain tires were all new tires, and they could not withstand scientific and technological appraisal, and many foreign people liked to do scientific and technological appraisal, more than half a year ago, finally some foreign buyers found them.
These foreign buyers have a lot of power, and when they learned that Gao Beiqi's son deceived them with fakes, they wanted to kill him directly, but in the end, Gao Beiqi came forward again and was willing to exchange the real goods for the fakes, so as to save his son.
Although the words are out, how to find so many genuine high-quality products in such a short period of time but worried, he has been a few good treasures in recent years, but it is still too far from the requirements of foreign buyers.
In the end, it was the idea of Gao Beiqi's son, who used his old trick from six years ago to exchange the fake for the real, and secretly exchanged the real products in the museum for these international buyers to appease their anger.
Gao Peiqi thought about it for a long time, and in the absence of other ways, he could only use this method, and in the past few years of smuggling, they have also pulled some museum management, and it just so happens that all of them can be used this time.
The things in the museum are not casually changed, there are many things with origin and inheritance in foreign countries, they will be directly exposed, so the high matching is the selection of porcelain collections that have only been included in the museum in the last two years, and the batch of porcelain in Li Yang School has become the key target of high completion.
This porcelain was born late and there are few records, which is the best choice for dropping the bag, but people are not as good as the sky, he only changed three pieces, and this batch of porcelain began to be exhibited, so that he had no chance.
From the beginning of the exhibition of this batch of porcelain, Gao Beiqi felt that something was wrong, and he had already begun to secretly prepare for the runaway.
It's just that Gao Beiqi never thought that the matter would be exposed so quickly, and the case would be solved so quickly, and he had already found his body before he was ready, and finally ended up in a tragic end.
Li Yang read these materials for more than half an hour, and after reading them, Li Yang exhaled heavily.
"Greed hurts others, this son of Elder Gao not only harmed himself, but also harmed a large number of people!"
Li Yang sighed heavily, the root of all this is Gao Beiqi's son, if it weren't for his greed, Gao Beiqi might not have reached this point.
"Gao Beiqi himself is also greedy, otherwise he would not have fallen to this point, he smuggled more than 200 pieces of national cultural relics, and even lost a large number of museum boutiques, the losses he caused to the country, it is not too much to shoot him a hundred times!"
He Lao snorted angrily, he was most distressed about this case, Gao Beiqi was also a person he used to be very optimistic about, he didn't expect it to fall to this point.
"Fortunately, his son is greedy, otherwise, there may be more than 200 pieces of smuggling!"
Li Yang said softly, and He Lao also nodded this time.
He Lao understood what Li Yang meant, if they continued to smuggle quietly, with their network, they didn't know when they would be discovered, and they didn't know how much loss the country would suffer.
Moreover, if it weren't for Gao Beiqi's son who was too greedy and concealed Gao Beiqi's production of these high imitations in China, this case would not have been detected so early.
In the past, Gao Beiqi strictly forbade this batch of high imitation to be shipped and sold in China, the porcelain in Huangshan was the goods secretly instructed by Gao Beiqi's son, and the person who shipped it was a member of their gang, this member thought that a newly established auction company would not have a problem, but he never expected to meet Li Yang.
"Greed is not enough to swallow elephants, I finally understand why you are arresting Gao Beiqi in front of so many experts!"
Li Yang nodded slowly, at this time, he didn't call Gao Elder anymore, this person did not deserve such an honorific title.
"This incident has taught us a big lesson, once insiders, especially high-level insiders, have crooked intentions, the harm is far greater than that of those petty counterfeiters!"
Li Yang looked up at He Lao, his heart suddenly moved, and he couldn't help asking, "Where is Zhu Yukun now?" And what to do with him? ”
"Zhu Yukun is currently being held for the time being, and he will not be released until all the truth is known. In the past two years, he has been bitter enough, although these things are from his hands, but he is not subjectively wrong, as long as he has not taken the stolen money, there will be no problems! ”
He Lao sighed softly, and his eyes once again showed a sense of relief. Zhu Yukun is also a genius-level figure like Li Yang, and it is also a miracle that such a person has been trapped in the hands of bad people for two years, and he has not fallen with it.
Leaving from He Lao's house, Li Yang's mood has always been very heavy.
The truth of the case is revealed, but people can't be happy, this time the number of people involved is beyond everyone's imagination, although it has not been spread to the outside world, but it can definitely be called an earthquake for those old-timers in the antique industry.
Especially He Lao's last words, Li Yang was even more helpless.
The few pieces of porcelain that were lost in the museum, He Lao hoped that Li Yang would have the opportunity to bring them back, and Li Yang really didn't know how to answer this hope.
He Lao seems to have higher and higher expectations for him, and no one knows where these pieces of porcelain are now, how he went to bring them back. Besides, these can be said to be stolen goods, such things must be hidden deeper, and Li Yang has little confidence when he encounters a piece, let alone find them all.
However, He Laofang seemed to have a lot of confidence in Li Yang, and said something that made Li Yang cry and laugh.
He Lao said: "With your luck, maybe you can really meet these porcelain, as long as you encounter it, you must bring it back at any cost, this is our national treasure, they are not allowed to wander outside!" ”
He Lao actually brought out all the luck talks, and Li Yang could only reluctantly agree first, Li Yang would pay attention and work hard, but he didn't dare to guarantee the result at all.
The matter of Gao Fang's case is over, although Li Yang has a new task that is difficult to complete, the old man did not give him any pressure, just do his best, not reluctantly.
The next day, Li Yang picked up Wang Jiajia early in the morning and went to Licheng, and the day before yesterday, Li Yang called his parents and told them about having a girlfriend.
Knowing that Li Yang already had a girlfriend, Li Yang's parents were naturally very happy, and they urged Li Yang to bring his girlfriend back for them to see in the past two days, if it weren't for the fact that the family was busy now, they all wanted to go to Mingyang to see their son's girlfriend.
"Li Yang, I'm a little nervous!"
It was almost an hour after leaving Mingyang, and when he was almost in Licheng County, Wang Jiajia suddenly grabbed Li Yang's hand and said to Li Yang with a wry smile.
"Don't be afraid, my parents are actually very good, you will know when you see them!"
Li Yang held Wang Jiajia's little hand, and secretly laughed in his heart, Wang Jiajia usually looks very calm, and she will inevitably be nervous about seeing her parents, which is probably a common problem for many girls.
But as soon as he remembered that he would also go to *** to meet Wang Jiajia's parents in the future, Li Yang couldn't laugh, and now everything that happened to Wang Jiajia, he will also go through it in the future, for Li Yang, who has never seen his parents, this is not a test.
