Chapter 755: The Emperor's New Clothes
After Fang Shao got up from bed this day, he didn't stay at home for too long, because Fang Shao had been very busy recently.
Since Fang Shao came to the capital, he has made one move after another, every time he is a big deal, he has hoarded a lot of land at a high price in the capital, and he has a posture of going to do a big job in the capital, plus under the instruction of his family, he has been in and out of the homes of some big people many times in a row, so many businessmen and local sons in the capital know that Fang Shao's family background is terrible.
In such a situation, the people who come to Fang Shao every day to make an appointment to talk about business, or want to make friends with him, can be said to be overcrowded, so Fang Shao's daily schedule is full, and there are constant meals every day.
Today is of course no exception, because the family's business is going to expand to the north in a big way, so Fang Shao has recently wanted to make friends with some friends in the business circle in the north.
There happened to be a dinner at noon a few days, and it was said that it was arranged by a brother from the north, and of course the origin of this brother was not comparable with Fang Shao, but in the northern region, the origin of their family was not small.
It is said that their family used to start by smuggling, but after the business became bigger, they turned white, and his father Yu Dongcheng founded the Dongcheng Group.
This Dongcheng Group is currently a well-known distant-water fishing company in China, mainly engaged in fishing and seafood sales, and in recent years, the company is also changing to higher industries such as real estate, catering and entertainment.
Moreover, their family has been operating in the north for many years, and they also have a huge network of relationships in the north, although the current scale of Dongcheng Group and their Fangyuan Group is not too large. But as a potential ally, such a business is still worth paying attention to.
What's more, Yu Shaodong, the young owner of Dongcheng Group, and Fang Shao still know each other, and the two had several encounters in Xiangjiang a few years ago, and they once ate at a table. It can be regarded as having some friendship.
Now that their Fang family has returned to the capital, many people know very well what this means, so now that Yu Shaodong came to the door and invited him to dinner, Fang Jun was not surprised at all.
In addition, the two had a little friendship before. So Fang Jun also plans to buy Yu Shaodong's face.
A few days later, the two sides agreed to taste Tan's cuisine together at the Beijing Hotel, Fang Shao is a person with a very good sense of time, don't look at his social status today is much higher than Yu Shaodong, but he doesn't have the slightest intention of being late and putting up a fight, so he got ready early and set off from home. And it was very punctual to arrive at the Beijing Hotel at half past eleven at noon.
Jingcheng Hotel is a famous restaurant in Beijing, and it is also a holy place for gourmets, because the seafood concocted by the chef here is very famous, especially the famous official cuisine, Tanjia cuisine. It is a must, so it is very sought after by wealthy businessmen in Beijing, and it is often necessary to book a seat in advance to have a place.
Yu Shaodong just made a meal order call a long time ago, and this is today's turn.
Fang Shao had already entered the Beijing Hotel, and there were people who kept greeting him along the way, and there were many people who invited Fang Shao to eat at the Beijing Hotel during this time. Therefore, the waiters of this Beijing Hotel are already familiar with each other.
And the people who eat in this hotel are generally people who are either rich or expensive, and it is normal for many people to know Fang Shao, and Fang Shao has enjoyed such a attention ceremony a few times before. But today, these people made Fang Shao feel extra enthusiastic, so he felt a little surprised.
Along the way, there were constantly some business people, smiling and nodding at themselves, some of whom they knew, some of whom they didn't know, and even some of whom were not square enough before. They all smiled quietly and pointed at each other. …,
With such a warm atmosphere, Fang Shao was really uncomfortable for a while. He knew that it was very likely to be related to the Han Dynasty jade table worth 220 million yuan of soft sister coins he photographed yesterday, as well as the jade dresser.
Who has changed this year, if you want to take out 220 million yuan of soft sister coins to buy a set of antiques, I am afraid that it will attract people's attention, Fang Shao's heart can't help but feel a little sweet, maybe this is the price of fame.
Even the welcome lady who led the way in front of her, the smile in her eyes made Fang Shao's mood extremely comfortable.
Walked into the hotel private room set by Yu Shaodong, and happened to see where Yu Shaodong was sitting, I don't know who he was talking to on the phone, when Yu Shaodong saw Fang Shao enter the private room, he immediately hung up the phone, and then stood up with a smile and shook hands with Fang Shao, and asked Fang Shao to sit down.
Fang Shao sat down, Yu Shaodong hurriedly beckoned the waiter to serve the food, and then began to serve tea and water to Fang Shao, but this guy always had a strange expression on his face, as if he wanted to laugh and was holding back, which really made Fang Shao feel very strange.
The wine and food were all together, Yu Shaodong waved his hand to signal the waiter to step back, and then gave Fang Shao a glass of wine, it was not the first time for the two of them to meet, they had also drunk wine together before, so the wine began to eat and drink when the glass was dry.
During the banquet, the two of them only talked about Fengyue and did not talk about business, and time passed quickly, and after a while, a bottle of Moutai wine was at the bottom, and just when Fang Shao was about to open the second bottle, he saw the constipation-like expression on Yu Shaodong's face, so Fang Shao's heart was very unhappy.
"What's wrong? Shaodong, is it very difficult for you to drink with me? Or do you have something urgent to go? ”
Fang Shao asked, Yu Shaodong heard Fang Shao ask like this, his face immediately turned positive, and then he hesitated for a while and said to Fang Shao.
"What? Fang Shao, didn't you read today's news? ”
"What's the news?"
Fang Shao felt very strange, he drank high last night, he didn't even know how to get home, and after getting up this morning, he went straight to this hotel, where did he hear any news?
But looking at this Yu Shaodong's mysterious look, what's going on?
Could it be that the Martians have attacked the Earth?
As soon as Yu Shaodong saw Fang Shao's expression, he knew that he hadn't watched today's news, and there happened to be something going on in the hotel, so Yu Shaodong turned on the TV and broadcast it to the financial channel of Imperial Court Radio 2, and it was just at this time that the news report was repeated.
And this report mainly focuses on Hu Deqiu's auction yesterday, and is taking the Han Dynasty jade table and jade dresser that Fang Shao photographed as the focus of the news.
Originally, Fang Shao was quite proud when he saw this news, but when he listened to it so carefully, he felt that something was wrong.
"Yesterday's Hu Deqiu auction, there was another set of sky-high lots, according to the auctioneer's information, this set of lots is a set of Han Dynasty jade table and jade dresser...... The starting price is 180 million yuan soft sister coins, and finally after fierce bidding competition, this set of Han Dynasty jade and jade dressers was auctioned away by Fangyuan Group Shaodong at a high price of 220 million yuan, setting a new high price in domestic antique auctions over the years, please see the detailed report below......"
Then the picture turned, and the high-spirited Fang Shao raised the card and appeared on the TV screen of the imperial court, in the picture Fang Shao was full of red light, and in the face of the competitive pressure of many bidders, he was calm and unhurried, and his unhurried bearing was very good for people to watch, and even Fang Shao himself felt that he was very photogenic.
But the next words on the TV made Fang Shao as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.
But just after the auction of the most expensive lot in history, many people laughed at the buyer for being a fool who didn't know anything about it, and didn't even know such a simple truth, and why was that? We consulted experts, and now we ask experts to give us detailed answers......"...,
Fang Shao felt that he had never hated this sweet-looking court TV show host so much as he did today, and just when he was still gritting his teeth at this beautiful host, he thought that the senior experts of the Jincheng Museum had already begun to show up to say the truth.
"This set of jade auctions, I don't even have to look at it to know that it's a fake. Because the name of this set of jade is the Han Dynasty Jade Dresser, so was there a stool in the Han Dynasty that we sat under the buttocks? The answer is no, according to our years of archaeological experience, so far, we have not found the Han Dynasty has a modern style of furniture, most of the Chinese furniture we use now, including tables, chairs, benches, bookcases, etc., began to be born from the Tang Dynasty, it was at that time that the Hu bed was introduced into our country, and after several evolutions, it became the Chinese furniture we used later, and before the Tang Dynasty, most of our ancestors still knelt and sit, or sat directly on the ground, There was no such thing as a bench at the time......"
When he heard the expert say this, Fang Shao was already stunned, he only felt that his head was buzzing, he felt that there were blood vessels beating constantly on both sides of his temples, his eyes were blood-red, and he couldn't see anything anymore.
He really couldn't believe that what this expert said was true, 220 million soft girl coins! Spent it to buy such a set of fakes?
This money is actually nothing, and buying a set of fakes is nothing, but what about the person who threw it away?
What the hell, how will we meet people in the future? Spent 220 million soft girl coins, bought a fake, and walked proudly on the street, feeling good about himself, isn't such a person a bad pen?
But it seems that today's bad pen is himself!
No wonder as soon as I walked into the hotel today, so many people were smiling at me, and even some people I didn't know were pointing at me
