Chapter 0233 Lingnan Jade Carving Factory

Xue Lang left Zhang Ming at home and in Songjiang City to escort several women who had already appeared in public.

Xing Yuan has not come back yet, and he will not move for the time being in Tonghai's arrangement, and Tonghai still needs to return to the furnace.

He only brought Yu Lei and four team members, two of whom were members of the Snow Leopard Elite Squad, who were good at tracking and sniping, and of course, fighting was not bad.

It's not that he's not worried about speculation coming true, but he won't be in public. It's not that he's timid, but the process of going through the formalities today made him vigilant, he has become a celebrity, and he is not a celebrity with a good reputation, so he must stop for a while and let everyone forget about that post, otherwise, there will be no more private space.

Invite people, according to what Xue Feng said, there will not be too many twists and turns, because with the golden dragon and the jade cup, these high-quality products of the Lingnan jade carving school, those old artists and master craftsmen who are the only remaining fruits, should not hesitate, at least it is inevitable to investigate.

When they see those jade rough stones, they will believe that Xue Lang is not the kind of unscrupulous businessman who only makes money in front of him, but a jade carving factory dedicated to creating high-quality jade carving schools and inheritance.

Xue Lang didn't take a plane, although it was more than a thousand kilometers, he still drove there to avoid trouble during the security check, and he didn't want the image of makeup to be exposed, so that people with a heart could find out and find the root.

One hundred and sixty kilometers away in an hour, Maybach can still easily withstand it.

Set off in the afternoon, and in the middle of the night, Xue Lang rushed to Dongjiang Province, Dongjiang City.

After waiting in the car for more than an hour, the team members arrived one after another and quietly entered the secret location that had been prepared long ago.

After Xue Lang arrived at the team, he drove to the Dongjiang Hotel, a five-star hotel with a strong local atmosphere but in line with international standards.

The room is booked, using Teng Huamin's name, of course, the ID card is also fake, but it is absolutely impossible to find out. These don't need Lu Jin to make a move, just go fox hunting, check on the Internet, and 100% of your true identity.

He is an ordinary person from Donghai Province and Donghai City, and he came here to buy jade products.

Lingnan jade carving factory is very famous, in front of some large jade carving factories of Nangong, Yanggong, and Shanghai, it is also quite weighty, and it can definitely squeeze into the top five in the country.

In recent years, the fame has become greater, and the jade carvings of Lingnan are delicate and ancient, especially the jewelry has seized a large share of the market.

Lingnan jade carving factory he carefully investigated, the founder surnamed Huo, called Huo Tingzhang, after the age of the old, passed to the eldest son Huo Jianye, the second son Huo Jianhua served as the deputy director. Both brothers are masters of jade carving, and their skills are passed down from their father.

A few years ago, Huo Jianye fell ill and worked hard for a year, and finally gave up. The second Huo Jianhua took over the jade carving factory, and in just one year, the company was registered, the scale was expanded, and it quickly became popular.

The reason why Xue Lang was in a hurry was not simply judging that Xue Feng's identity was the Lingnan Jade Carving Factory, but that Huo Jianye knew him.

Huo Jianye is the same jade merchant he escorted the jade rough back to China a few years ago.

There is an An Guobin incident, Xue Lang suspects that there is something wrong with Huo Jianye's death, and Huo Jianhua is not necessarily true. And Xue Feng, I don't know if it's Huo Jianye's daughter. But in the information, Huo Jianye has no heirs. And Huo Jianhua has a daughter, named Huo Wanting, who has been studying in the United States, has been going since she was a child, and has never returned.

This makes Xue Lang difficult to judge, only when he arrives can he know the truth of the matter, whether the Huo family has anything to do with Xue Feng.

After Xue Lang checked in, he didn't stay in the room longer. Although it was already early in the morning, driving more than a thousand kilometers, and it was inevitable that he would be tired, he still decided to go to see the periphery of the jade carving factory.

After all, the defense of the factory area at this time is not the kind of popular security during the day, and many clues can be seen whether there are traces of a certain organization.

Xue Lang rode a borrowed battery car, and in the night when there were few pedestrians, he went straight to his destination. When he reached the edge of the Second Ring Road, five or six hundred meters away from the jade carving factory, Xue Lang turned into a small alley, hid the car, and quietly touched it.

Looking at the luxurious and atmospheric jade carving factory from a distance, Xue Lang didn't see any difference.

Circling around the jade carving factory, through the low-light telescope, there was no dark whistle, only a patrol, and a symbolic flashlight shone back and forth.

Although the walking route is not fixed, Xue Lang can see that these are two three-person patrol teams, patrolling cross-patrols to ensure the safety of the factory.

Could it be that the jade carving factory does not have monitoring equipment?

Xue Lang held the telescope suspiciously, looking carefully.

Fortunately, he finally saw a few surveillance probes, but he also understood why he wanted a patrol. Too few probes.

Too little......

Xue Lang doesn't think this is normal, a large company, will it save money for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of monitoring equipment?

Obviously, it shouldn't, especially the jade carving factory still has expensive raw materials, treasures of the town, and valuable finished products, which need to have a certain amount of security.

It is said that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and Xue Lang has already decided that there is a problem with this factory, and he wants to cover it up. With a judgment, he returned quietly, went straight to his residence, "returned" the battery car, returned to the room, and sent instructions to Lu Jin, who had not planned to come over, to let him come by plane, checked some information, and then fell asleep.

The next day, he had breakfast, strolled around, and rushed to the Lingnan jade carving factory.

He went directly to the sales hall of the Lingnan Jade Carving Factory, a large place where jade gems are sold, which is considered the factory's own retail location.

Entering the Lingnan jade sales, Xue Lang was shocked by the luxurious style inside.

It can't be said to be magnificent, at least it can be regarded as beautifully decorated. The lighting brings out the beauty of jade gemstones, and the young beauties who serve are not inferior to the gemstone counters in hypermarkets.

There were also quite a few guests, most of whom were well-dressed, and they were obviously not working-class.

Xue Lang glanced around, then walked to the nearby counter, and began to look through the glass at the jade rings, necklaces and other small carvings of emerald green or various colors.

As I watched it, I scored a lot of money on these beautiful jewelry, especially those with emerald green colors, although the price was expensive, but he thought it was very worthwhile.

With appreciation, he turned around the counter from counter to counter, and occasionally the beautiful waiter introduced, he smiled and smiled, listened quietly, and then turned on.

Buy, for him will not, although it looks good.

When he turned to the larger object area, he glanced at the Burmese jade written in the exhibition area, and couldn't help but stop and look at it twice.

For jade, the most he knows at this level is Burmese jadeite, although it has not been verified, but in a month or so, he listened and heard some experience.

Then there is Hetian jade, these precious jade materials, and I also know some knowledge of identification.

He looked at a fist-sized emerald jade sculpture for three or four minutes, frowned without a trace, and said, "Could you please bring it over to me and take a look?" ”

The waiter saw that Xue Lang's dress and bearing were a very popular person, but he didn't dare to be too lazy, and nodded, "This gentleman can only be seen up close, not held in his hand, he can play on the counter." ”

Xue Lang understands that such a large carved piece can cost tens of millions of dollars, after all, if the raw materials of this thing are good, it will cost tens of thousands of grams to sell, and it will cost thousands of dollars a gram at a time, in case it is broken, it is not a small loss.

So he nodded in agreement.

The waiter saw that Xue Lang understood the meaning, so he carefully held the carved piece to the counter for Xue Lang to enjoy.

Xue Lang took a closer look at it, the carving, in the eyes of a layman, was unsatisfactory and in place. But he didn't look at the carver, but at the jade.

After watching for a full minute, he carefully touched the jade material.

At a glance, he knew in his heart, what kind of material is this? This is the so-called A material, that is, some jade scraps are ground into powder, bonded into blocks in a special way and then carved, playing for a long time, not to mention that it is not good for the human body, and the harmful chemicals in it will also make people harmed.

I can't complain that it looks awkward through the light......

After counting, he smiled politely and praised: "Good material!" Good carver! That's good. ”

The waiter showed a charming smile and said: "Sir really has a vision, this is the Burmese material from the old field that is not much in our factory, which is very rare." ”

Xue Lang nodded in agreement, and walked to the next counter.

The waiter secretly slandered in his heart: poor ghost!

Then he glanced at Xue Lang, who was leaving, and carefully put away the jade pieces.

They have a lot of contact with this in a day, but as long as they pay, they don't care if you have an identity or not, and getting a commission is king. I don't have to pay, I just watch it, and I can't help but feel that Lang is wasting time.

Seeing this, Xue Lang couldn't help but be puzzled.

A company of this size, the jade carving factory, actually fools people? A is all on it, so will there be other means?

Sure enough, the next counter and Tian Yu, he, a layman, saw the means here again.

A carved piece that looks quite exquisite, the feeling of starting is not right, not the delicate and warm feeling, which makes him guess that this may be the Russian jade that Huo Jianye said, a polar bear jade material with extremely low value, but it is a real jade material.

Oh yes!

Xue Lang didn't have the heart to look at it, at this time he already had a number, this jade carving factory is shoddy, counterfeit and other means, fooling those who don't understand jade, spend a lot of money, but buy fakes.

Isn't that the rhythm of closing the door?

Xue Lang pondered as he walked out.

This thing is a small vendor or something, an antique market or something, you can use this means, make a profit, turn your head and change places, this is the company, what should you do if you find a fake? You can cover it up once or twice, but after a long time, won't it make your reputation stink and close the door completely?

At this moment, he no longer judged in his heart that this Lingnan jade carving factory was related to the Grim Reaper, because, with such a big business as the Ming side, the several groups operated by the Grim Reaper Organization did not do this, all of them passed the test in terms of quality, and they belonged to the enterprise of commodities or legitimate management, and the means were different, after all, how could they make money for a while to build a century-old foundation?

As I walked outside, I dispelled the idea of going in and visiting.

Otherwise, at least you have to buy a few million things to have a chance to see the boutiques inside, and if you don't go to see it, you will save money.

Besides, the survey doesn't have to cost such a lot of money, there are other ways to do it.

pondering, he suddenly quickened his pace, pushed open the glass door, and prepared to leave.

At the moment when the door opened, a beautiful woman collided with him, and when she saw the door being pushed open, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and took half a step back.

Xue Lang had already noticed that the woman was coming in, so he deliberately quickened his pace and pushed the door open first.

After such a pause, the microaperture camera on his chest recorded the face of the beautiful woman, then nodded politely and left directly.

Returning to the hotel, Xue Lang opened the terminal and began to check the information transmitted back by the team members.

It's really Huo Wanting......

The beauty that Xue Lang inadvertently encountered was really Huo Jianhua's daughter, Huo Wanting.

Last night, he carefully checked again, Huo Jianhua's daughter has been studying in the United States and has never come back, but just half a month ago, Huo Wanting returned to China, and the day before yesterday entered the jade carving factory to help, and the temporary position is the manager of the external retail department of the jade carving factory.

At that time, he just looked at it and didn't pay much attention to it. Because, the girl in the photo and Xuefeng are not the same way of beauty, lacking some inner things to catch up, not like it, definitely not a bag drop or something.

In other words, the identity of Xue Feng that I guessed before was useless, and the daughter of the other family came back, which showed that Huo Jianhua was not necessarily tired.

Looking at Huo Jianhua's kind of information, Xue Lang grabbed it, took out his headset and belt, and ordered: "Loach, get Huo Jianhua and Huo Wanting's hair and the like, do a DNA test." ”

"Yes."

Yu Lei simply took the order.

After Xue Lang gave the order, he took out the information of the twelve old craftsmen given by Xue Feng, as well as the information he found about the jade carving masters who had aged in the jade carving factory in recent years, and looked for whether there were girls of the same age as Xue Feng, whose parents or grandparents had an accident or something, and he was also missing.

But for more than an hour, Xue Lang didn't find any valuable information.

Could it be that Xue Feng really has nothing to do with the jade carving factory?

Xue Lang's mind flashed Xue Feng's reaction when she saw the golden dragon, and she couldn't help herself when she saw the jade cup, plus her understanding of jade carving and Lingnan jade carving factory, does it really matter?

If you really don't care, then just stay at home, the information of these old artists, and the confidence that you have absolute confidence in recruiting only by virtue of the Golden Dragon Jade Cup, and you don't have a deep relationship with the Lingnan Jade Carving Factory, how can you know this?

Sitting there, the more Xue Lang thought about it, the more confused he became, he originally thought that he would be able to solve the mystery by going to the jade carving factory, but this would be gone.

To say that there is no information about Xue Feng in these information at hand, including the previously speculated that Huo Jianhua's daughter was dropped.

When people come back, there will be no zĂ i drops, and Huo Jianhua is not necessarily fake.

It seems that Huo Jianhua can only be excluded by waiting for the test results to come out.

Secretly pondering, ready to give up thinking, first take a look at the 12 old artists, after confirmation, wait for Huo Jianhua to be excluded, Lingnan Jade Carving Factory will not care about it for the time being, and then go to meet these master-level figures.

Just as he was pondering, Lu Jin's voice suddenly came from the built-in headset.

"Instructor, I've arrived at my destination and entered the lair."

It's pretty fast......

Xue Lang's thought flashed, and then he said: "Shanying, the task for you to come is to collect information, start working now, collect information about Huo Jianhua, Huo Jianye, and their father, Huo Tingzhang, and Huo Tingzhang's father, including the founder of the Lingnan jade carving school, etc., to be detailed." ”

"Yes!"

Lu Jinlisuo's order, but a thought flashed in his heart: If that's all, you can do it at home, why do you come here?

Xue Lang asked Lu Jin to come over, but in fact, he thought that he could lock on to the target, and he needed to operate it himself to infiltrate it, so as to avoid using violent means and causing unnecessary trouble.

But this will Xue Lang himself negate the judgment first, and Lu Jin's arrival will not be so important for the time being. This is also the reason why he didn't plan to let Lu Jin come in the first place, there was no big move, there was no need.

After arranging, I called Xue Feng and asked if these people were visiting one by one, or if they were looking for a certain person.

Xue Feng only knew that Xue Lang had arrived at the Dongjiang River, and wondered why he didn't see him yesterday, and there was no one this morning. But the three of them are used to it, even if they can't see Xue Lang, Xue Lang won't say hello, and they won't take the initiative to call Xue Lang to avoid causing him trouble.

Not to mention Xia Ziyi, what does it have to do with where the boss goes? Of course, I don't ask.

Xue Feng listened to Xue Lang's meaning and said: "Xue Lang, the oldest of these twelve old artists is 68 years old, and the youngest is fifty-nine, they are all apprentices of Huo Tingzhang, the founder of Lingnan Jade Carving Factory, so they are all senior brothers.

As long as the ancient intention, it is not difficult for others to do a word of his word. At that time, Huo Jianhua abandoned the purpose of Lingnan jade carving, and he was the first to leave the jade carving factory and go home to relax, and others also left. ”

Xue Lang actually knew about this relationship, these were all very easy to check, and the reason why he called Xue Feng was to know how much Xue Feng knew about the jade carving factory.

Xue Feng is like a treasure, so he still speculates that Xue Feng is related to the jade carving factory, but he can't find the relationship for the time being.

After listening, I knew in my heart that these are really not found in the information on the surface. Regardless of whether Huo Jianhua is tired or not, the solicitation of these old artists seems to be not a big problem.

This is obvious, today he went to the jade carving factory, saw shoddy, and even fake, and understood what Xue Feng meant by betraying the purpose.

These old artists are definitely not willing to do such a conscience-defying thing, uphold the conscience and creed of an artist, and leave the jade carving factory, or, with their weight, is it not to be supplied by the jade carving factory?

But Xue Lang didn't ask why Xue Feng knew so much detail, he wouldn't ask, since Xue Feng didn't say it, he didn't see it, didn't hear it, until she was willing to say it.

After a slight pause, Xue Lang smiled and said, "Great, then I'll go visit Gu tomorrow and see if I can complete the task you gave me......"
