"I've seen it. I've seen this thing that Mr. Chen auctioned. ”

"What? Have you seen it? I was surprised, "Where did you see that?" ”

"This is not the place to talk, let's go back to our accommodation."

When he arrived at the hotel where Aqiu was staying, he opened his laptop and plugged in the USB flash drive I gave him. Immediately, a folder called "Tang Can" popped up on the computer monitor.

Open the folder with the mouse, and all the pictures and videos about the blue and white tower jar of the Tang Dynasty are presented. Aqiu pointed to the picture and said, "When I first saw it, I felt familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember it. So I clicked on the video and watched it carefully, and finally remembered..."

"The year before last, the Phoenix Ancient City held a national treasure appreciation conference, and Mr. Lu was invited to be one of the judges, and I was also present at the time. Halfway through the treasure appreciation, an old man with glasses came to the stage holding an artifact, oh, it was this Tang pagoda-shaped blue and white jar. The old man introduced himself as a professor at the Ningzhou Institute of Architecture and Engineering, and had an unusual interest in antiques. By chance, he found a Tang Dynasty tower-shaped blue and white jar, he liked it very much, and he wanted to find an expert to show it for a long time. After hearing that the Phoenix Ancient City held a treasure appreciation conference, he rushed over with his things..."

Speaking of this, Aqiu slowed down his tone, "At that time, I was sitting in the first row of the audience, very close to the treasure platform, and after seeing it at a glance, I felt that my eyes lit up, and I knew that things could not be fake..."

After several judges and experts came to the stage, they looked at the past one by one, and they were full of praise, saying that the thing was good, although the blue and white craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty was unsatisfactory, but the top of the blue and white jar was the top button of the pearl, and the cover was decorated with bead patterns, and the arc pattern was followed by a week of Ruyi cloud head pattern, and the main pattern in the middle was painted with two dragons, named vanilla dragon, and the dragon should be the head of the dragon. Experts have said that the artifact came from the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty, and there is no doubt that it is genuine and valuable..."

When the experts were talking about the excitement, Mr. Lu sneered, saying that this thing was a bad thing and persuaded Professor Zhou to take it away quickly.

Mr. Lu's words immediately attracted a lot of opposition, and the professor surnamed Zhou was even more unconvinced, he said that he couldn't hide it, I had already looked for experts in the province before coming here to appreciate the treasure, and the thing was absolutely real, it was a treasure. After the old professor finished speaking, he glared at Mr. Lu and said I think you are the youngest among these judges, and everyone says that this thing is a good treasure, how do you say that it is a bad thing? ”

The old professor surnamed Zhou had a very stubborn temper, and after saying something, he left the treasure appraisal scene angrily with something. Now I'm surprised to see it suddenly in the USB flash drive you gave me, Mr. Chen..."

Speaking of this, Aqiu looked at me, "Could it be that Mr. Chen bought the things from Professor Zhou?" ”

I shook my head, "No. ”

"How did you get that?"

"Someone sent it to Hejude Auction House to entrust me with an auction."

"Who is it?"

"I don't know."

"How could you not know?"

"The other party is masked."

"Oh," Aqiu muttered, "there are only two possibilities for masked faces, one is that they think things are priceless, and they are afraid that they will be killed by the fortune after they are auctioned for astronomical amounts. Second, this person deliberately moved his hands and feet in things, he was afraid of being seen through, so he masked his face and didn't want others to know who he was, this person did this, it was a gamble. ”

My mind was pounding.

I had thought of Aqiu's previous sentence a long time ago, but the latter sentence woke me up. After the masked man put his things down, he left with only a bank and bank account number. I after identification, unexpectedly found that the blue and white tower-shaped jar glaze contains Su Ma Liqing, which surprised me unusually, this epoch-making treasure in my opinion after some packaging and publicity, and finally was the president of the International Yanxia Cultural Research Association Mr. Asyang won the auction, and later caused a big trouble, I learned that the glaze of the jar Su Ma Liqing was artificially added, and it was not for a long time.

At the time, I thought I was unlucky and thought it was a fake, but now after being reminded by Aqiu, I suddenly realized that someone might have deliberately harmed me.

Who has done me harm?

The masked man, of course.

This person knew that my level of treasure appreciation was not low, and he deliberately added Su Ma Liqing to the inner glaze to confuse me. As for me, I mistakenly thought that the artifact was the first one to contain Su Ma Liqing among the blue and white unearthed in the Tang Dynasty, so I used the platform of Hejude Auction House to publicize it. This person's idea is very vicious, it is also gambling, and if he sells for a sky-high price, he will make a lot of money, in case someone finds out, it doesn't matter, anyway, no one knows who he is, and I, the person in charge of the auction house, will carry the black pot.

"What a fucking shit!" Dunzi also thought of this, and after scolding hatefully, he gritted his teeth and said to me, "Brother, we can't just be played with." You must find out who that masked man is, and only by finding him out can you and the reputation of Hejude Auction House be restored. Otherwise, you, the antique appraiser, will never be able to hold your head up. ”

"It's difficult," I shook my head helplessly, "the man not only covered his face, but also wrapped his body tightly, and the whole process, without even saying a word, left something and a note, and hurried away." The time was very short, and coupled with the hurry, even his video could not be left. ”

Dunzi said: "You can use roundabout tactics to find the professor surnamed Zhou." ”

I patted my head, "Yes, I know from the School of Architecture and Engineering, it's not far from the Sunflower Auction House." Let's go find that Professor Zhou. ”

I drove, and Dunzi and Aqiu sat in the car. Aqiu had to go, because he had met Professor Zhou, and through him, we could find Professor Zhou very smoothly.

After arriving at the School of Architecture and Engineering, I asked a teacher from the college, and the other party said that there were two professors surnamed Zhou in the college, and I don't know which one you are looking for.

Aqiu said: "Wear glasses, the prescription is not low, and the age is over 60..."

"So you're looking for Zhou Zhengkang," the other party looked at the three of us and asked suspiciously, "What are you looking for him?" ”

The other party's question is a bit redundant, but we have a request for others, and we can't show our unhappiness. However, of course, I couldn't tell the truth, so I casually found a reason and said, "The three of us and Professor Zhou are fellow villagers, and we came from our rural hometown to see Professor Zhou." ”

"Are you Zhou Zhengkang's fellow countrymen?" The other party's face showed joy, and he immediately said, "Great, you guys are so good." Lao Zhou's wife is divorcing him, you just go to mediate. Let's go, I'll take you there. ”

After the other party finished speaking, he couldn't help but lead the way in front.

I, Dunzi, and Aqiu were all stunned. Professor Zhou is in his sixties, and his wife actually divorced him? W- That's too exaggerated, isn't it?
