Chapter 259: Investigation

To say that Zhao Yiping knew Zhang Housheng and them, it was also because of a chance five years ago.

Zhao Yiping does the collection of cultural relics, and there will always be some channels to understand some cultural relics information. Once, Zhao Yiping learned from a friend that a villager in Zhoujiazhuang had a few good things, so he rushed over.

However, when I arrived at the house that my friend said, I took out the things and looked at them, but Zhao Yiping was a little disappointed, the things looked good, but they were just imitations during the Republic of China. However, there is a saying that no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, so he fooled the things from that family's house at the lowest price.

finally came to Qinzhou from Jincheng, but only got these few things, Zhao Yiping was somewhat unwilling, so Zhao Yiping just paid some money and asked the villager to take him to collect things from door to door, and this villager was none other than the mentioned Brother Wednesday.

Brother Wednesday was very happy about this kind of errand, but it was too troublesome to go door-to-door to collect it, so he said to Zhao Yiping, I have a good relationship with the village chief, help you shout a few words on the loudspeaker in the village.

Zhao Yiping heard that this idea was good, trouble-free, and the effect was good, so he hurriedly agreed.

After the broadcast, almost everyone in the village knew about it, and Zhang Housheng, who had just returned from the tomb robbery, was of course no exception.

When Zhang Housheng heard that it was someone from the Longxi Museum who came to collect the cultural relics, his heart moved, and he pretended to be very curious, and he also went to see it together.

However, when he arrived at the village committee, Zhang Housheng found that the scene was very lively, but the transaction was very light. There is no way, Zhoujiazhuang is not a rich village in the first place, and there are few rich ancestors. Of course, there are few heirloom cultural relics, and the wind and rain here have been good for many years. As long as you are diligent, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking. In this way, there is no intention of robbing tombs.

After collecting it like this, Zhao Yiping received a few things from the kiln, and he even hinted that even if it was something obtained from the tomb robbery, it didn't matter, but if there was nothing, he couldn't let the villagers conjure it up for him.

This made Zhao Yiping frustrated, and at the same time, he also scolded his mother in his heart, didn't he say that there were a lot of tomb robbers in Qinzhou. Why haven't I received a single good thing! Zuihou had no choice but to end hastily.

At that time, Zhang Housheng was greatly stimulated by his wife because he cuckolded him, so he tried every possible way to cure his disease, and because of the treatment, his cost was quite expensive.

So when Zhao Yiping was trading with the villagers, the sharp-eyed Zhang Housheng saw several stacks of RMB he was carrying, and his heart was full of greed. And judging by words and deeds. He felt that Zhao Yiping should not be "fishing", so he wanted to dispose of some of the things he got from the previous tomb robbery through Zhao Yiping in exchange for some money.

Zhang Housheng is a gang of tomb robbers. Generally, after stealing an ancient tomb, most of the more precious cultural relics are smuggled to the Xiangjiang side for sale. Others are sold in other places in the mainland. In this way, because things are not too precious. It will also be relatively safe.

For example, here in Shangti, there is one of their outlets. Specializing in some cultural relics unearthed in the south, of course, the operators are the peripheral members of the gang.

Zhang Housheng was jealous of Zhao Yiping's money, and immediately called their peripheral personnel, and after some explanation, he handed over Zhao Yiping's approximate location and contact information left by Zhao Yiping just now, and told him that he must ensure the safety of the transaction.

The peripheral member contacted by Zhang Housheng was none other than Zhang Housheng, who was later disposed of by Zhang Housheng. Lao Eleven is also an old Jianghu, according to Zhang Housheng's confession, in an "accidental" way, he met Zhao Yiping, and "inadvertently" let Zhao Yiping know that he had some good goods in his hands.

Zhao Yiping, this guy, in order to make money, is not jealous at all, even if he knows that the thing is an unearthed cultural relic, he still completed the transaction with Lao Eleven, and made an appointment to have good things to take care of him in the future.

After this transaction, Zhao Yiping and Zhang Housheng's gang can be regarded as a line, with one transaction after another, the greedy Zhao Yiping can no longer be satisfied with the cheap unearthed cultural relics, and earn the difference, so he stretched out his evil hand to the museum, and the cultural relics in the museum.

After Director Wang introduced the relevant situation, Professor Qin asked anxiously: "What, Director Wang, you said that Zhao Yiping actually colluded with the security guards to replace the cultural relics on display in our museum?" ”

Director Wang said solemnly: "Yes, and it is more serious than the loss of his money by defrauding the museum with fakes, there are several bronzes of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have been stolen, and it is estimated that the loss should be five or six million." ”

Hearing this, if it weren't for Chu Chen's support, Professor Qin almost stumbled and fell to the ground, and he said sadly: "Zhao Yiping, how can you do such a thing that has lost your conscience!" You brute is not going to die well! ”

Speaking of zuihou, Professor Qin can't help but be in tears, he was originally mainly studying bronzes, it can be said that the bronzes exhibited in the museum, he has carefully studied each one, and he also has a deep feeling, and now I heard that it was replaced by Zhao Yiping, how not to make him grief-stricken.

When everyone saw Professor Qin's appearance, they hurriedly comforted him.

Director Wang comforted: "Professor Qin, don't worry, according to Zhao Yiping's confession, he committed the crime more than a month ago, although the things have been sold now, it doesn't mean that they can't be recovered." ”

When Professor Qin heard Director Wang say this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Director Wang, have you been looking for it now?" ”

Director Wang said: "The thing was sold by the gang of tomb robbers, and Zhao Yiping doesn't know where the thing is now, only if we find out the tomb robbers, will we know the specific whereabouts of the thing." ”

Professor Qin said with some anger: "Isn't Zhao Yiping also a member of that gang? With his clues, why haven't you found that group of people yet! ”

Director Wang explained: "Zhao Yiping is actually a peripheral member of the gang, and he has never met the leader of the gang. However, we learned from him that his first contact with this gang was in Qingmen Town, which was more than fifty miles away from us. ”

"And Zhao Yiping has a few times, and he also went to Aoki Town to find the eleventh of the gang, as well as other clues that Zhao Yiping confessed, so we judge that the nest of the gang leader should be near Qingmen Town."

Hearing this, Qi Baolin asked, "What about the old eleven?" Is it under control now? ”

Director Wang shook his head and said regretfully: "According to Zhao Yiping, the old eleven has passed away, and as far as he knows, he was poisoned when he robbed the tomb. ”

"Is it murder again?" Li Beibei asked.

Director Wang replied: "According to Zhao Yiping, that old eleven has become a core member because of his good performance, and he should not be killed easily, so we judge that it should indeed be the reason Zhao Yiping said." ”

Professor Qin said anxiously: "Then what are you going to do now, this rope is broken, can you still find someone?" ”

Director Wang said: "We still use Lao Eleven as a breakthrough, since he is already a core member, he will definitely come into contact with the leader of the gang, and through his whereabouts, we should be able to find our target." ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded knowingly, and now it can only be like this.

At this time, Qi Baolin said: "Without further ado, let's go to Qingmen Town now." ”

Director Wang nodded and said, "Okay!" ”

The matter of investigation actually has nothing to do with Chu Chen, and what he wants most now is to see Professor Qin and their archaeology, but after all, it is a team, and it is not good to be separated, so he can only say goodbye to Professor Qin, get in the car and set off for the destination.

When they arrived in Qingmen Town, there was really nothing to do with Chu Chen, for two days in a row, Qi Baolin and the others were busy with the things they investigated, and Chu Chen was bored and lived.

In addition to watching TV in the hotel every day, Chu Chen spent the rest of his time visiting this small northwest town.

In this way, on the third day, there was finally something that Bo Jean Chu Chen was interested in, because today was Sunday, and there would be a market here in Qingmen Town every Sunday.

Chu Chen got up early in the morning, and felt that there were a lot more people in the town, and when he came to the place where the stall was set up, it was even more crowded, and the shouting was one after another, which made Chu Chen, who had not been in the market for many years, feel more cordial.

So he walked around the bazaar with great interest, buying snacks from time to time, buying some souvenirs as gifts, and in a short time the two hands that were empty just now were full.

Just as Chu Chen was about to go back, he suddenly saw a stall selling antiques, most of which were porcelain, which made him very interested, so he walked to the stall in three or two steps, squatted down and observed.

The owner of the stall was a man in his thirties, and when he saw the big bag in Chu Chen's hand, he hurriedly asked with a smile: "Little little brother, what do you need?" I'm all good here! ”

Chu Chen smiled at him and said, "I'll take a look first!" ”

The stall owner smiled and said, "Haodehaode, just look at it, if you are satisfied, the price is negotiable." ”

After Chu Chen nodded, he picked up a Longquan Pisces and looked at it, but as soon as he saw it, he knew from his experience that this thing should be an unearthed porcelain.

It is not too difficult to identify whether it is unearthed porcelain, and generally the glaze layer and glaze layer of unearthed porcelain will inevitably grow out of various chemical elements to form water and soil spots, and crystalline semi-transparent silver-white, off-white or yellowish rust flower crystals. These rust flowers crystallize in irregular fine spots or patches.

Some glazes will produce smoke-like, cloud-like, circle-shaped and other forms and multi-color crystal spots composed of translucent fine grains, and milky white or yellow-white flocculent-like powder spots will also be generated inside the glaze layer, or transparent crystal-like, snowflake-like, glass ballast and other forms of crystals.
