Liao Mo'er said, took out an old-fashioned mobile phone that I couldn't see what brand it was, turned it on, and dialed a phone number neatly.

The call was not short.

After hanging up the phone, Liao Mo'er said to Liao Wangchao, "That's right, grandpa." At the end of last year, in Yangon, Myanmar, he participated in an underground auction organized by us and spent $230,000 to buy a bronze statue of Xuande Green Tara! ”

After a pause, Liao Mo'er said again, "Genuine." But our people in Myanmar regard it as a high imitation of the reserve price. ”

"Is that him?" Liao Wangchao said, "This matter, during the Spring Festival, your father told me, and I have an impression." Because the people who organized the auction at that time looked away and didn't think that this bronze statue was genuine, it turned out to be a leak at the auction!

"Afterwards, your father studied the picture and traced the source. It's just that I didn't ask who the winning bidder was. ”

"You didn't ask, I noticed. I want to see who picked up this leak. It should be him, although the underground auction is not registered, but we will investigate the winning bidder. Tang Yi, from Shanzhou, Huaxia, participated in the Myanmar public auction at that time and participated in the auction by the way. Liao Moer said.

Liao Wangchao's shriveled lips moved slightly, "Interesting." ”

"It's not over yet." Liao Mo'er continued, "This Tang Yi is actually the guest of the Burmese jade predator Wang Zhennan, and the gambling stone is said to have never collapsed!" Just this time the Myanmar public market, I am afraid that it is at least hundreds of millions of euros! ”

Liao Wangchao tilted his head, "Oh? So, this Tang Yi, although he is young, really has a bit of Taoism? ”

Liao Mo'er pondered, "Grandpa, haven't you heard of this person in the Chinese antique circle?" ”

"Grandpa is old, and in the past ten years, he has been thinking about the past more than he cares about the situation." Liao Wangchao looked at Liao Mo'er very seriously, "Mo'er, do you really want to meet him?" ”

Liao Mo'er grabbed Liao Wangchao's arm, "Grandpa, this is what you taught me, hearing is false, seeing is believing, if you don't see it with your own eyes, how can you do it?" Moreover, don't you want to know if he is a descendant of Tang Tianbian? ”

"Hahahaha." Liao Wangchao suddenly laughed, "You just came here today, and you said that you would accompany your grandfather for a few days." ”

"I'll stay with my grandfather for a few days, and then I'll meet him!" Liao Mo'er helped Liao Wangchao and sat down on Mazha again, "By the way, grandpa, didn't you say that as long as I stay with you for a few days this time, you will tell me why did you choose this village in Anning County to live in seclusion?" ”

"Hmm." Liao Wangchao seemed to be falling into memories again, "Pour me a cup of tea, and I'll tell you a story." ”

"Actually, this is also the story of how I got started, and this story is also a secret for me. I haven't told anyone else. In the past two years, my body has been getting worse day by day, so I can't go into the ground with this secret, right? ”

Liao Mo'er put the tea on the small square table, "Grandpa, your body is tough, and your internal strength has been perfected, don't chill yourself!" ”

Liao Wangchao waved his hand, "My own body, I have a number." ”

After taking a sip of tea, Liao Wangchao's gaze seemed to be confused, "That year, I was only eighteen years old, a few years younger than you now!" ”

"After the Japanese invaded China, I originally went from Yanjing to Shudu to escape the war. However, in 1941, I came to Tanzhou City with all my belongings. ”

At this time, Tanzhou City is still a scene of ruins because of a fire three years ago. And Tufuzimen, like crazy, went around stealing underground cultural relics. Tanzhou City has a long history, and among the various tombs, there are countless treasures. ”

"At that time, cultural relics dealers from all over the country also stationed in Tanzhou City, and I went there because of this trend."

The underground cultural relics in Tanzhou have entered the hands of cultural relics dealers through Guò Tufuzi, and then flow overseas in large quantities. I don't know how many good things have been dug up from the underground tombs in Tanzhou City, and there is no news.

"It was the same time of year as it is now, late spring and early summer. I stayed in Tanzhou City for half a year and didn't leave until the fall. ”

Liao Wangchao came to Tanzhou, and the purpose was naturally to acquire cultural relics. He became part of an army of antiquities dealers.

"It's hard to make a fortune." Liao Wangchao actually smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "However, it was indeed an opportunity at that time, if I want to revive the Meteor Hall, I can't do it without money, if I want to make money, I must seize the opportunity!" ”

Because of the help of several Meteor Hall diehards before, Liao Wangchao kept the money given by Kono Iizuka for the agarwood rockery. This amount of money is not a small amount, but if you want to revive the Meteor Hall, it is naturally far from enough. Moreover, if you can't make money with money, there will always be a day when you sit and eat nothing.

Carrying all the belongings into the precarious city of Tanzhou in the season of war and chaos is also very bold for an eighteen-year-old person.

He could have been in the rear of the southwest safely, with the help of a few diehards, living a life without worrying about food and clothing. However, he chose a different path. Of course, revenge has always been restless in his young heart.

This in itself is also a big gamble, it has become, it is a big profit, and if you lose, you may even take your life.

He had good luck. Originally, when he first entered Tanzhou City, he was confused. But because of his kung fu, he helped a man who was robbed one night to relieve the siege. This person turned out to be a well-known native master, and he got on the line.

The bronze tripod of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the swords and spears of the Spring and Autumn Period, the lacquerware of the Warring States Period, and the jewelry of the Han Dynasty were all in Tanzhou for half a year, and he gained a lot.

At that time, Tanzhou City was not only in chaos internally, but also facing the attack of the Japanese invaders outside. In the autumn, Liao Wangchao took stock of the harvest and was ready to leave. At that time, a diehard loyalist of the Meteor Hall had already paved the way in Huhai, and he could go from Tanzhou to Huhai and sell this batch of things in the concession, and he made a lot of money.

"Before leaving, I took a turn around Tanzhou City, and the ancient tombs in many places were full of devastation, and Tufuzi simply entered the tomb with his eyes open." Liao Wangchao smiled bitterly, "However, if there were no cultural relics dealers, I'm afraid that tomb robbery would not be so rampant, aren't I just a cultural relics dealer?" ”

Liao Mo'er didn't speak, but listened quietly.

"On the day I was leaving. The Japanese devils outside the city attacked again, and the defenders engaged them fiercely. I was carrying a bag of hemp, I couldn't run fast, and when I just escaped from Tanzhou City, I was hit in the thigh by a stray bullet! ”

"I didn't hurt my bones, but I was carrying something on my back, and I couldn't dodge when I fell, when suddenly another carriage came at me, and my head hit the wheel, and I fainted on the spot."
