Chapter 871: Restoring the Firewood Kiln
The British are here again? Li Yi, who had just obtained more than 10,000 pieces of hidden treasures, didn't take them into account at all, "You just need to receive them directly, it's still that condition, if you want these two things, you can exchange the "Female Historian" from the British Museum." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info By the way, how are those things organized? ”
Mo Jinxuan originally wanted to persuade Li Yi not to take it so inappropriately, because this time the ambassador personally contacted her. But as soon as she heard Li Yi talk about the antiques that had just been shipped back, she instantly left the British behind.
"We didn't dare to take it all out at once, so we have only processed more than 300 pieces now, but among these more than 300 pieces, no less than ten national treasure-level cultural relics have been found!"
Mo Jinxuan's excited voice was trembling, she wanted to ask where Li Yi got the things, but she knew that it was probably no good to know about it, so she held back so hard.
Li Yi smiled helplessly, he hadn't had time to look at those things yet, but according to what Shang Yi said, I was afraid that among the so-called dozen or so national treasures, there should be almost five or six fakes!
"You deal with the British first, and I'll be over in a moment."
However, whether it is a fake or a genuine product, as long as it is old enough and has the support of such a large number of cultural relics, it will be a little difficult for anyone to change things from him.
"But Arnault and John Karui are not too good and too embarrassed, forget it, let's see what they can get when the time comes."
He roughly flipped through all the information provided by Shang Yi, and found that most of these properties were securities and stocks, and the industry had not even accounted for one-third of them, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, "I have long said that I want to recruit a master of playing finance, but I have always been delayed because of this and that, and now I ...... Gu Feng, you can contact a few headhunting companies and ask them to help us pay attention to this talent. ”
After explaining the incident, he packed up and rushed to the museum.
The underground treasure room of the museum is full of wooden boxes brought back from Jinzhai, and those staff members are nervously handling the antiques in the open wooden boxes in the conference room next to them.
"Fat elephant, come, help me get this box out, and this, this ......" Li Yi pointed to five or six boxes in a row, these are all cultural relics in some problems, and they need to be dealt with as soon as possible.
"Sister Mo, I'm afraid it's a bit of a problem to go on like this, there are too many things and too few people. Otherwise, we will pay for your old colleagues to help us and let them help us deal with some of it? ”
"That's fine, but how do you explain where these things come from?"
"No need to explain, anyway, no one asks about so many things in our museum, you can just make up a patriot who donated it, and when the time comes, change these boxes, and pull the things to Shoubo to deal with ......"
After discussing with Mo Jinxuan and unifying the caliber, Li Yi carefully picked out a few boxes, the things here are all fakes, but because they are all imitations, the value is also very high.
"Hehe, if the people of Shoubo want to laugh, they can laugh, some things are better to make a fortune in silence." Treasures like this dug up from the ground nominally belong to the state, and if they are really exposed, even if Wang Haoqing is on top of it, it will always be a trouble.
Send some fakes to the past, so that they can have a better psychological balance and less trouble.
After arranging the things here, Li Yi began to inspect the cultural relics that had just been processed one by one, distinguishing the real from the fake one by one.
"I didn't expect Sister Mo's eyesight to be really good, these national treasures are all genuine!"
Because Mo Jinxuan is good at porcelain, the first few boxes to open are basically porcelain. Of course, because it is guessed based on characteristics such as the weight of the box, there are also mistakes.
However, even if it is the wrong box of ancient paintings, the national treasure in it is actually genuine, and it is a super famous work!
"This painting is really 13 hands and feet, I didn't expect it to fall into my hands in the end! It's just, is it okay to just exhibit it directly? ”
The painting that Li Yi is holding now is Tang Bohu's "Jinshan Victory Map", which caused an uproar during the Anti-Japanese War, and was named "Authentic Trace 008" by Japanese spies at that time!
"This painting must be genuine, right? Look at this paper and this trace...... "Mo Jinxuan couldn't help but feel a little weak when she saw Li Yi paying attention to this Tang Bohu's work, her appreciation level in calligraphy and painting was far lower than that of porcelain.
"Well, Sister Mo actually doesn't know the story of this painting? Also, although this seems to be a TV series, she shouldn't have time to watch it, and it's been so long, unless she remembers the name of the work very accurately, most of them will be like her, and they don't know ...... face-to-face."
"This is the real thing, and the painting has a lot of history." Li Yi thought about it and decided to tell the origin of this painting, because if it is to be exhibited, it must be known to Mo Jinxuan, otherwise it will not be beautiful to make jokes in the future.
"Huh? This is the real 008? I said how do I feel that this name is a little familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it......" Mo Jinxuan was taken aback at first, and then asked hesitantly: "Li Yi, can you tell Sister Mo?" Where did you get all this stuff? It's so large, and almost every piece is precious, you don't want to ......."
After holding it for a long time, Mo Jinxuan still didn't hold back, but from her title, Li Yi understood that she was going to treat this conversation as a private conversation between two people, and it had nothing to do with work.
"Sister Mo, don't worry, this is a donation from a warm-hearted person. His ancestor gathered the things of several big collectors during the Anti-Japanese War and hid them in a very secret place, and this time he provided this address to us, so ......"
Li Yi didn't tell a lie, but just turned the 13 organization into a patriotic collector. Although Mo Jinxuan still didn't believe in his explanation, she couldn't find a better explanation, so she had to believe that there were still such selfless people in this society.
Next, Li Yi stared at the museum for a few days, and Mo Jinxuan stared at Shoubo, and the more than 100 boxes of precious cultural relics were finally sorted out.
"A total of 11,354 pieces, including 3,489 genuine pieces, 435 old imitations of the Ming Dynasty, and the most old imitations of the Qing Dynasty, reaching 6,820 pieces! If it's really because it's too real to be reluctant, then how strong should 13 be in that period of time! ”
sighed for a while, handed over the disposal of these cultural relics to Mo Jinxuan, and he took the fat elephant to them, and went straight to Jingdezhen, he wanted to take the opportunity of restoring the firewood kiln, and then contact Qu Hang, and then decide whether to use him to imitate the ancient pottery of Japan.
Qu Hang's studio is also well-known in the local area, and the fat elephant has been here more than once, so they quickly rushed to the place.
"Huh? You are...... I met you, that time in Paris......"
Qu Hang still remembers Li Yi, but he doesn't remember his name.
"That's right, Master Qu, my name is Li Yi, and I'm the one you met in Paris last time."
"Come, come in and take a seat, it just so happens that I've not been very busy lately, otherwise you won't be able to see me here."
Qu Hang enthusiastically let Li Yi into the workshop, he still remembered the cowpea-red rattle that Li Yi bought, but unfortunately he was a step late at the time, otherwise it would have been his collection.
"Is my brother coming here this time to buy porcelain or ......" As soon as he sat down, he asked directly, this has nothing to do with personality, it's just because I'm usually too busy, so it's basically the style of talking about things when I see anyone.
"I'm here to find Master Qu for you this time. Do you remember when I was in Paris and I mentioned the firewood kiln? That's what I'm here for. ”
"Firewood kiln?" Qu Hang smiled bitterly and shook his head, a kind of porcelain that no one has ever seen and has never touched, how can it be restored and imitated? He remembered telling Li Yi very clearly at that time, the process and formula are indispensable, and the worst must have porcelain clay......
"Master Qu, I know what you're worried about, but the reason why I believe that there is firewood kiln porcelain, and I want to find someone to copy and restore it, is because I have two things in my hands, you can take a look at these two things first, and then decide whether to help me do this."
"Oh? Do you have evidence that a firewood kiln actually exists? ”
Li Yi nodded and took out the brown paper from his bag.
Qu Hang is an expert, and he just glanced at the kraft paper, and knew that it was a porcelain firing process and glaze recipe that was written on it, but whether it was a firewood kiln or not was still open to discussion.
He first took a closer look at the obviously very ancient cowhide, and couldn't help but feel a trace of longing in his heart, even if it wasn't a firewood kiln, it must be a recipe for ancient porcelain!
"I'm sorry, I need to look into it."
Li Yi nodded, stood up and began to admire the porcelain placed in the studio, while Qu Hang muttered in a low voice while carefully reading the contents of the vellum.
"Don't talk about this, it's really possible that it's a recipe for ancient porcelain that has never been found before. But although he is famous for being a firewood kiln, I can't say for sure whether it is a firewood kiln or not. ”
Li Yi put down the porcelain vase in his hand, turned around and asked, "That means that what is recorded on this may be a firewood kiln?" It's just that Master Qu can't make a final affirmation yet. ”
"Well, there are too few records about firewood kilns, and many of them are hearsay, so ......"
Li Yi nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said: "Master Qu, if I show you one more thing, I think you will be almost sure." ”
"Oh? What is it? "Qu Hang is a little strange, is it difficult, can you really take out a piece of firewood kiln porcelain?
Li Yi smiled slightly, and motioned for Gu Feng to take out the lily vase he took from Wang Haoqing's house.
