Chapter 264: The Big Scandal
Xi Shiyuan also knew Xu Hanwen's reputation, and quipped: "That should be a good baby, I don't know which dynasty it is." β
Ye Yi said: "Don't you know if you see it? β
As the group walked away, the crowd dispersed, revealing objects that had been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.
On the booth, a 30-centimeter-high bronze double-footed tripod is firmly displayed in it, and the light is straight down, simple and thick, and the patina is new and green.
There is a display board next to the ancient ding, which reads: gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod, Eastern Zhou.
Ye Yi's gaze suddenly became strange, she raised her eyebrows, and then turned to leave.
Yi Qiuling had just communicated with her about antiques, and knew that she had an amazing eye in antique appraisal, but she didn't expect her to leave after just taking a look, and she was immediately stunned.
What's going on? Could it be that something is fake!
Before everyone could react, Ye Yi had already walked out of the exhibition hall and said to the staff, "Where is Huang Mantang!" Let him come to the venue immediately! β
Xi Shiyuan and the others followed Ye Yi out of the venue, and when they saw this situation, they also glanced at each other: Could it be that the two-legged tripod is not coming from the right way, and there is something else?
Things are getting more and more wrong.
Yi Qiuling, as the master, turned around and said with a smile: "Miss Yi has some things to deal with, let's follow me around first!" β
After speaking, she said to Ye Yi again: "My office is temporarily borrowing you, what is there to talk about in the office!" β
"Thank you."
Ye Yi turned around and was the first to enter the elevator.
Yi Qiuling took the guests back to the venue!
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
As soon as he entered the elevator, Chu Tiankuo, who had been silent since Ye Yi's trouble, raised his head and asked, "Ding, has a problem?" β
Ye Yi raised his eyes, smiled playfully, and said, "My classmate's father once spent two million to buy an identical gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod, which was real when it was inspected, and fake when it was handed over. β
"Bag dropping...... That's a big taboo in the industry! β
Xi Shiyuan frowned.
Ye Yi sneered and said, "So I'm curious to know now who sent the two-legged tripod!" β
At this time, the elevator door opened, and the three of them walked into the office together.
In the office, the person in charge of the auction has been waiting in the house for a long time.
He looks to be in his fifties, with a slightly rich figure and a kind face, which is easy to reassure people.
"Hello, I'm Zhang Lan, the chairman said that you have something to look for me!"
Although Zhang Lan is older, she doesn't take a posture, and she also respects the three of Ye Yi who met for the first time, which makes Ye Yi, who was originally very dissatisfied with Yi Qiuling, also have a good impression.
Ye Yi took a correspondence course and sat in the chairman's position.
Zhang Lan was stunned.
Although Yi Qiuling acts in a high-profile manner on weekdays, she is well-known in the company for respecting her elders, and something like this that sits directly in the chairman's position without saying a word will never happen.
Ye Yi sensed Zhang Lan's displeasure, but picked up the pen and said while playing: "Manager Zhang, I heard that you are responsible for collecting and placing the exhibits in this charity auction?" β
"Yes, I'm in charge."
Zhang Lan is also a transparent person, and immediately realized that the situation was wrong, and said, "Could it be that something is wrong?" β
"There's nothing wrong with you, but I see something that shouldn't be here."
Ye Yi didn't show his face, just smiled: "When I was looking at the collection in the exhibition hall, I saw the thief!" β
Hearing this, Zhang Lan was shocked!
"Thieves! How is this possible! β
"You doubt me?"
"Don't dare."
Zhang Lan didn't know what Ye Yi's origin was, but he knew Long Jingli and Xi Shiyuan, how could a woman who could make them willing to be a foil, how could she be an idle person!
At this time, the door of the office opened again, and Huang Mantang and Yi Qiuling walked in together.
"How so!"
Yi Qiuling asked sharply.
Zhang Lan said: "Chairman, today's auction is a major event for the company, and all the collections received have been checked and appraised at various levels to ensure that the genuine goods are also clean!" I really can't figure out how there will be thieves mixed in after such repeated identification! What the hell is it? Which antique shop sent it? Please tell me and I'll go down and investigate immediately! β
"The thing is in the exhibition hall below, the gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Ye Yi monitored his fingers and turned the screen to the front of the booth of the two-legged tripod.
Huang Mantang has just come, and the booth at this moment is full of people, and everyone is talking about it.
Ye Yi looked at Zhang Lan: "When did this gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod be delivered!" β
"I sent ...... half a month ago"
Zhang Lan frowned in a cold sweat.
"But ten days ago, one of the shareholders of Fu De Xuan once bought the same gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod from a friend for two million! At that time, Yu Lao and I were both on the scene and did an appraisal for the double-footed tripod. β
Huang Mantang's expression was also conclusive: "Of course, the price of two million is indeed a bit low for a gluttonous double-footed tripod in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the buyer also said that it was because of the huge investment deficit, so he had to sell it at a discount." β
"The dealβ"
"The transaction was completed, Xu Tianxing paid 500,000 on the spot, and made up the remaining 1.5 million the next day, but what he finally got was a fake!"
Huang Mantang recalled that time and trembled with anger.
Yi Qiuling also figured out the situation at this time, and said slowly: "The real gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod is not something that can be bought for two million. β
Her meaning is obvious, Huang Mantang and Xu Tianxing are delusional to make cheap money, and they deserve to be dropped.
"It is true that the gluttonous pattern double-footed tripod in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty should not be only priced at two million, but the seller is willing to sell the double-legged tripod at this price, and the buyer does pay two million. Could it be that just because the market price of the double-legged tripod is more than two million, Boss Huang and Boss Xu deserve to see the genuine product when they inspect the goods, and they can only get the counterfeit scrap copper after paying the money? ! Yi Dong, your logic makes me a little uneasy. β
Ye Yi's smile had a strange taste.
Yi Qiuling didn't speak, Zhang Lan didn't expect that a bronze exhibit would involve such a big thing, and she was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
On one side is the top boss, on the other side is the future opponent, and if he says a wrong word, he will not have good fruit to eat!
And most importantly, the Iba in front of you!
This girl in a red dress seems to be gentle and kind, but in fact, every word goes straight to the point, and what's even worse is that there are two great gods behind her, Xi Shiyuan and Chu Tiankuo, and there is a dragon salute as a knight outside!
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Lan bit the tip of her tongue and said: "Fortune Auction House pays the most attention to rules and never accepts unclean lots!" But this gluttonous double-footed tripod was sent by a small number of Si Hang Zhai, and the information was also given to us by Si Hang Zhaiββ"
"Do you mean that Lao Xu deliberately sent thieves to Lao Hu's fiancΓ©e to make her charity auction a big scandal?!"
The sudden appearance of the dragon salute made the already tense atmosphere even more tense.
