Chapter 333: The Master is Lonely
"You may be seated."
Jiang Hao was curious to let Wu Fangjian, who was holding the rag bag, to his room, he inadvertently glanced at the cloth bag that Wu Fangjian regarded as a treasure, and found that the cloth bag was full of jade, and according to his appreciation experience, every piece of jade was a real ancient jade, if this batch of ancient jade was really sold, let alone three million, even 30 million Wu Fangjian could be repaid.
However, Wu Fangjian never sold it, and would rather endure the harassment of debt collectors day and night, which shows that this bag of ancient jade is really important to him, is this the result of his research?
The thin rag bag was in front of Jiang Hao's eyes, there was no obstruction, he found that the patterns carved on the surface of each piece of ancient jade were either simple or complex, or complex, and there were many types of ornaments, there were flowers, birds, fish and insects, and there were many flowers, he really couldn't imagine where Wu Fangjian got so many priceless ancient jade!
"Guess what's in this one?"
A mysterious smile hung on the corner of Wu Fangjian's mouth, he thought that Jiang Hao must not be able to guess the contents of his shabby cloth bag, and carefully placed the cloth bag on the rectangular oak table.
"Jade."
Jiang Hao replied with a smile, looking at Wu Fangjian, who looked surprised and looked like a ghost, pointed to his ear and explained, "Could it be that Professor Wu has forgotten what I do?" I'm a connoisseur, I invented the theory of appreciation, and my hearing is very strong, and I can hear what they are from the light sound.
And I dare to guarantee that the texture of this voice is definitely made by Gu Yu, and Xin Yu is absolutely unable to make this kind of sound, I don't know if what Lu Dao said is right Professor Wu. ”
"You...... It's amazing. ”
Wu Fangjian stared, staring straight at Jiang Hao, who was calmly flickering him, and felt that Jiang Hao's appreciation was simply amazing, is this still the ears that human beings should have?
However, if Wu Fangjian knew that Jiang Hao could actually hear the sound of the ant's tentacles trembling, I don't know how he would feel, would he be frightened!
He finally understood why Jiang Hao could have today's achievements, just this means of judging things by sound, there is really no one among the people he knows who has it, and his heart is full of expectations for Jiang Hao's cooperation.
Only people who know how to appreciate jade can truly understand the improvement of jade carving on the value of jade, he feels that it should be very pleasant to cooperate with Jiang Hao, and the worries on the way to come, and the unhappiness of being robbed * robbery, have been run to the back of his mind.
"Look."
Wu Fangjian carefully opened the mouth of the cloth bag, cautiously took out a few pieces of jade from it, and said happily: "The robber saw that my cloth bag was very broken, so he didn't rob it, but I don't know how valuable it is." ”
"These robbers are to give them a piece of real jade, and they may not be able to appreciate it and throw it away as waste." Jiang Hao pretended to observe the ancient jade seriously, glanced at it roughly, opened the appreciation technique to increase his proficiency, and found that the number of this bag of ancient jade built by Wu Fangjian was roughly more than two hundred, and he pretended to be surprised and said: "Professor Wu, this bag of ancient jade of yours is very valuable, how did you get it, could it all be obtained by you from the black market, I'm afraid this is difficult, right?" ”
"My salary is so low, where is it possible to collect so many ancient jades." The corners of Wu Fangjian's mouth hooked up a wry smile, pointed to the ancient jade and said cautiously: "This batch of ancient jade is what I study the subject of carving, they are all recorded, if I lose it, but I have to compensate, it is obtained from many collectors, it can be said that it is difficult to obtain each piece." ”
"That, as far as I know, the topics studied by professors like you are all confidential, if you bring all this batch of ancient jade to show me, aren't you afraid of leaking secrets? It wouldn't be a crime, would it? ”
Jiang Hao glanced at Wu Fangjian worriedly, he was really afraid that Wu Fangjian would break the law for the sake of research.
"You've been thinking too much, my research on engraving is not a national one, and if it is really a generalization, it should be regarded as a private research." A look of loss flashed in Wu Fangjian's eyes, and he sighed heavily and said, "The reason why I brought all the ancient jade to you is to be able to persuade you to support my research.
If you don't provide funding to support my research, I'm really going to pause, because this batch of ancient jade is going to be taken back, and I'm going to lose it, and I'll never see them again. ”
"What's going on?"
Jiang Hao looked at Wu Fangjian, who touched Gu Yu gently, his eyes were full of kindness and gentleness, if he hadn't seen his movements, Jiang Hao even suspected that Wu Fangjian's expression was revealed by treating his son, he suddenly began to appreciate Wu Fangjian very much, it is not easy to be able to do a study for a long time, it is rare to be able to love it as always, this is rare, after all, people are the most changeable, especially when encountering setbacks, they will change their original thoughts.
"A lot of my research funds were provided to me by people in the ancient jade world, including these ancient jades, and they also gave me money to guarantee that I could have a chance to touch them." The corners of Wu Fangjian's mouth hooked up a touch of embarrassment, his voice was hoarse, and he said helplessly: "However, now they no longer plan to continue to provide funds to me, nor do they plan to continue to provide guarantees for this batch of antiques, and these antiques will be returned to the borrowers." ”
"Why don't you support research?" Jiang Hao frowned in confusion.
"When they provided the funding, they also realized that once my research was successful, the benefits would be huge, and it was normal to get rich in a short period of time.
Just imagine, many of the judgments of ancient jade are judged according to the carving ingenuity, if they master the carving skills of ancient jade, they can produce ancient jade in batches, just imagine how much of this benefit should be.
But now these people have found that today's collection market is quite hot, rather than continue to research, it is better to invest money in the collection market to make a profit, so they directly notified me to cut off the money. ”
Wu Fangjian lamented that there is nothing about people for profit, but for what is it, you can't find a person who is really willing to invest in research, is there only profit and money left in people's eyes? Isn't there anything else?
"People need exact benefits, you don't have to be depressed about this, in fact, our cooperation is the same reason, I can't take money to let you go to unlimited research, that's a fool to do.
Even if you research, the worst has to let me see the results, do you have been researching for many years, and there are no results in the research, I think if you let them see the possibility of generating benefits, as long as you have brains, you will invest, I think you understand this truth better than me, right? ”
Jiang Hao frowned suspiciously, he believed that even if Wu Fangjian didn't want to tell those investors about the research results, presumably those investors would definitely come to the door to urge him, could it be that Wu Fangjian didn't have the results of the research at all? Or is something else going on?
"At the beginning, I really didn't plan to tell them the results of my research, after all, I didn't want my research results to be used by these people to disrupt the jade market and harm people. But I couldn't stand their repeated persecution, so I told them about the success of my research. Wu Fangjian seemed to open his mouth unspeakably, and his mouth was very bitter.
"The research results have been told to them, I think they will definitely increase their investment, why do you want to cut off your research instead, did you deceive them?"
Jiang Hao guessed that he could see that Wu Fangjian was probably the kind of person who worked hard for research, and did not share his research results, which was really in line with the consistent style of professors.
"Deceive them?"
Wu Fangjian leaned weakly on the back of the chair, raised his head and sighed sadly, he could be said to have no place to pour bitter water in his stomach, and said truthfully: "They did say that I deceived them, and the fake research fooled them, so they got angry and wanted to cut off my research funds." ”
"Did you deceive them, then?"
Jiang Hao felt that Wu Fangjian was very painful, Wu Fangjian seemed to be an unacceptable outlier, not understood, this may be where his pain lies, but he didn't know how to help Wu Fangjian, he could only try to be a good listener, listen to Wu Fangjian's complaints and depression.
He finally understood why so many professors were depressed, this is the so-called master loneliness!
"I'm a professor, and do I have to deceive them?" Wu Fangjian was very angry, his face turned red, and he roared angrily: "They are just a group of complete stupid people, or a group of stupid people, a group of bastards who only know how to make money."
Do you know what is the saddest thing about the Taoist people, that is, the appreciation that I don't understand, I showed them the results of my hard work and countless days and nights.
But they called me a liar, cheated them out of their money, and even sued me for it, and then I reimbursed them for the research fees, all because they couldn't understand my research results.
I'm ridiculous, you say you can't understand my research results, do you want to blame me? ”
"What do you mean...... They don't understand your research? Jiang Hao was happy and said with a smile: "Isn't that how it is carved?" It's not high-tech, how can you not understand it? ”
Wu Fangjian glanced at Jiang Hao with a strange face, and muttered in a low voice, "Maybe...... You can't read it, and even if you do, you can...... I guess I'll think I'm a liar. ”
"yes, I'd love to see it."
Jiang Hao was interested, he really wanted to see Wu Fangjian's research results, to see if it was really as magical as he said, is there anything in the world that I Jiang Hao can't understand? Of course not!
