Chapter 386: Purple Clay Pot
Following Master's advice, Su Zhe rarely even went out of the door these days.
The only route is home, school, and work, and occasionally I will go to the hospital to see Jiang Zihan, and I will not go to other places that can be pushed off. The hatred between the Nine Princes with the Sword and the Tu Jiu Clan was naturally none of his business, but he was always worried about Jiang Zihan's safety. In addition, Zhao Zhongmou is being oppressed on all fronts in business, and he is almost out of breath.
When Liu Changqiao left China, he said that Tan Ziwen was the most optimistic among the younger generation, but now Su Zhe feels that Zhao Zhongmou is the most tricky one.
Su Zhe thought that after he cooperated with Tan Ziwen to develop e-commerce, the pace of jewelry would slow down, but he didn't expect him to do both. Taking advantage of this momentum, Zhao Zhongmou seemed to be unwilling to take a piece of the pie in Tanglin Province.
In the face of Zhao Zhongmou's fierce attack, Su Zhe could only defend at present. If it weren't for the help of Su Yucheng, an elite among the elites, he would have been defeated by Zhao Zhongmou a long time ago. Su Zhe had to admit that the heads-up in business was not Zhao Zhongmou's opponent.
However, there are so many people on Ruiding's side to take care of it, and Su Zhe usually doesn't need to spend much time.
At present, in addition to worrying about Jiang Zihan's safety, the time for agreeing to Qian Lao to investigate the sale of cultural relics is also passing day by day, but there is no news from several teams.
Zhuge Lanteng called twice to inquire, but he didn't get any good news, so he didn't call again. It is indeed not an easy task to investigate these things, although Zhou Zhiyan has said that Tan Shangkun and Zheng Jianhua are the objects of suspicion. There is no evidence, and the credibility of Zhou Zhiyan's words is debatable, Su Zhe will not rashly spy on those two.
At noon, he received a call from Qinglan, saying that he had found a clue, and Su Zhe went straight from school to Tingyuzhai after class.
Qing Lan called him over this time to receive a purple clay pot from an antique agent, something from the Song Dynasty. Su Zhe played with it in his hand, and even after hundreds of years, the body of the pot was still shiny. Touched in the hand, there is not a trace of roughness.
There are two controversial theories about the purple clay pot, one is the traditional Ming Dynasty origin theory, and the other is the emerging Song Dynasty origin theory. According to the "Complete Book of Purple Sand Pots", it was mentioned that early purple clay pots were found in abandoned wells in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, according to many years of records, there are not many historical materials about the purple clay pot in the Song Dynasty.
The year of mentioning the purple clay pot to the Song Dynasty is in these twenty or thirty years, but this research comes from the spontaneity of the people.
It may be that during the Song Dynasty, there was a prototype of purple clay pots, but it was really widely known as a family from the Ming Dynasty.
Su Zhe didn't know much about the history of the purple clay pot, and Qinglan checked a lot of relevant information after receiving the purple clay pot. If it was a Ming Dynasty purple clay pot, she didn't find it strange, but according to her experience, she identified the purple clay pot as belonging to the Song Dynasty, which made her overturn the idea that the purple clay pot was from the Ming Dynasty in the historical materials she had seen before.
Qinglan's appraisal of the purple clay pot is not as sure as the appraisal of other antiques, and she brought Su Zhe here to ask him to confirm it. Su Zhe rarely comes to listen to Yuzhai usually, but his identification ability Qinglan admires it very much.
Qinglan has been listening to Yuzhai for so long, and Su Zhe has not had much time to come here in the past. But there is one point, every time he receives a good antique, Qinglan can't make up his mind, and when Su Zhe comes over, he will give a definite judgment, and he has never made a mistake.
Su Zhe is such a talent, sometimes even Qinglan is jealous. You must know that she has the ability to do it today, and that is because she grew up touching these antiques since she was a child. In addition to eyesight and experience, it is also important to monitor antiques.
"According to the outer pot of the purple clay pot, I synthesized the photos of the purple clay pot unearthed in the Ming Dynasty, and this purple clay pot is a little different from the Ming Dynasty. From the outside, it looks a little close to the purple clay pot after the Ming Dynasty, but the difference in the size of the pot is still a bit big. It is for this reason that I boldly speculate that it was from the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. ”
Qinglan said the basis for her judgment, after all, it is not easy to judge by relying on eyesight and feel alone, without the help of instruments.
Su Zhe opened his see-through eye, and a cool breath slowly poured into his eyes. I hadn't used perspective for a while, and it was a little blurry at first, but when this ancient aura entered my eyes, my vision suddenly became clear and bright.
After watching carefully for a while, Su Zhe carefully placed the purple clay pot on the table.
"Where did Sister Qinglan get this purple clay pot, or the person before?"
Qing Lan nodded, "It's strange to say, unlike the previous Xuanwu jade carving, this time the other party came directly to the door." At that time, he offered 50,000 yuan, and finally sold it for 30,000 yuan. Originally, there were antiques like the Song Dynasty, even if they were from the Southern Song Dynasty, and there were very few of them in the Song Dynasty like the purple clay pot, which must be more than 30,000 yuan. I deliberately lowered the price because I recognized him, but I didn't expect him to sell for 30,000 yuan. ”
Su Zhe also felt strange and couldn't understand the other party's intentions.
After thinking for a while, Su Zhe opened his mouth and asked, "Sister Qinglan, what are the big changes in the situation here in Guan Gong Temple recently?"
"It's pretty much the same as before, but it's a little strange that there are more agents selling antiques here during this time. Qinglan lowered her eyebrows, and her pretty eyes blinked lightly, as if she was discharging electricity.
"I've noticed, and it seems like there are a dozen more people like this all of a sudden. Everyone carries a bag on their backs, and sometimes they go into some shops to ask, and they will come to ask tourists when they meet them. If the price is right, there is an option to trade on the spot. ”
At first, Qinglan didn't notice the activities of these people, but an employee in the store came to work a few days ago and inadvertently said it, and she noticed it.
After observing for two days, Qinglan also found that there was a regularity in the appearance of these people. At ten o'clock in the morning, three or four people were chatting around like idle people, and in the afternoon there was a new group of people. Generally speaking, there are more people in the Guangong Temple in the afternoon, and that time period is the time when tourists are more concentrated.
At this time, there will be another group of people, one or two more than in the morning.
"I've lived here here for so many years, and there are occasional antique agents, but it's the first time I've seen such a frequent situation like this. ”
Things were a bit unbelievable, and Qinglan couldn't figure it out for a while.
Su Zhe looked at the purple clay pot on the table, and tapped his fingers on the edge.
Suddenly, Su Zhe's eyes brightened, and he raised his head to stare at Qing Lan. The latter had doubts in his eyes, not knowing what Su Zhe was thinking. Without waiting for Su Zhe to speak, Qing Lan seemed to think of some key questions through Su Zhe's expression.
"Sister Qinglan, it seems that we want to go together. Su Zhe smiled slightly.
Suddenly, there are so many antique agents walking around the Guangong Temple, which seems to have something to do with this antique protection group activity. Su Zhe originally thought that those people were really not afraid of death, and they dared to ship like the previous few times, knowing that the police were watching so closely. It seems that no matter how bold you are, you have to look at the limelight, and no one will be willing to take this risk at this juncture, unless it is really a long life.
Since it is not possible to ship in large quantities, it is necessary to ship in small quantities one by one.
Antique agents are undoubtedly the most handy people at such times. I don't know how many antiques they have in their hands, but selling them one by one may make more money on the price than selling a large number of goods, and the security is much higher.
"But it's a bit of a contradiction. Su Zhe said.
Qinglan was puzzled: "How to rebel and disperse shipments should be the best way for them at present." ”
"Not for this reason. If you think about it, there are suddenly so many antique intermediaries here in Guangong Temple, and there are so many antique markets in the country, and there will definitely be them in other places. One or two won't attract attention, and so many at once you can't even get people to pay attention. We can think of this problem, and people like Zhuge Lanteng, Shen Donglai, Zhou Zhihui and others may also think of it. ”
Qinglan thought for a moment and understood what Su Zhe meant.
However, Qing Lan couldn't figure out why those people used such a method, and if it was a desperate move, it was completely unnecessary.
Su Zhe said: "I'm afraid that they will make a big move next, and these antique agents in front of me are just sent by them to confuse our eyes." ”
There seem to be a lot of antique agents, and I haven't noticed how much the daily transaction volume is. If the object of suspicion is really one of Tan Shangkun and Zheng Jianhua, as insiders, they naturally know the purpose of the so-called ancient protection group's activities. Nowadays, everyone just has a title and only a few people do things, and they are not afraid at all.
It's just that the police are keeping an eye on it, and they are in a hurry to ship the goods, so they are looking for some antique agents to attract the attention of the police, trying to make a noise.
"This matter is big or small, I'll go discuss with Qian Lao first, and I'll trouble you to keep an eye on it. ”
Su Zhe didn't linger in listening to Yuzhai, and called Qian Lao while walking out of the door.
However, when the phone was picked up, Su Zhe saw a person who was not very willing to see it.
Tang Yuanqing.
Su Zhe put down the phone, Tang Yuanqing should have come over at him when he appeared in Kuncheng.
If he could, Su Zhe really wanted to avoid her, but Tang Yuanqing walked directly in front of him, but he couldn't avoid it if he wanted to.
"Do you have time to talk?"
Su Zhe asked, "But it's an important matter?"
"It shouldn't be very important to you, but it's important to me. After a pause, Tang Yuanqing added, "Don't worry, I didn't come all the way to talk to you." ”
Su Zhe pouted in his heart, Tang Yuanqing said so, but women have always had different hearts, who knows if the conversation is inappropriate, will they fight each other.
Since they all came to the door, Su Zhe would not turn him away, lest people say that he had lost his manners.
"Miss Tang is rarely a guest in Kuncheng, so I have to do my best as a landlord. Su Zhe chuckled, "I know there is a place suitable for chatting, the environment is comfortable, and no one is noisy" Without speaking, Su Zhe's expression suddenly turned to the side, and he stretched out his hand to pull Tang Yuanqing aside, "Be careful-"
Tang Yuanqing didn't react, Su Zhe stepped over and stood in front of her, grabbing something with a wave of his hand.
Spreading out his palm, blood came out of Su Zhe's palm, and a sharp dart lay quietly on it.
