After understanding the reason why Christie's was in trouble, Zhang Yang became more confident in his career.

Although they are both auctions, there is an essential difference between an auction held by Zhang Yang and Christie's.

Christie's is helping former robbers to reap the country's wealth.

And Zhang Yang is collecting the lost treasures among the people, so as not to let the pearl be dusted.

The comparison between the two is a judgment!

Correspondingly, Zhang Yang also put a question mark in his heart about Christie's prospects in China.

Perhaps when they can react to the domestic solicitation of lots, the relevant restrictions will be relaxed.

But in that case, Christie's is a direct competitor to Zhang Yang.

So although he was clear in his heart, Zhang Yang didn't plan to remind Shen Yangling of them.

It is enough to continue to help read these pre-selected lots.

I have to say that there are really a lot of rare porcelain in the list.

None of the antiques looted from the country by Europeans in the last century are bad.

But despite the high prices, there are very few that really catch Zhang Yang's eye.

Turning over and over are porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, and old furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Looking at this kind of thing, it is not as interesting as the fake national treasure at the audition site.

But at the end of the day, I finally found a good product:

A pair of Qing Qianlong period, white jade pairs.

The front of each jade plaque is written with four large characters of "dragon and phoenix Chengxiang";

The back is based on the seawater river cliff pattern, and the dragon and phoenix patterns are carved respectively.

This thing is simply tailor-made for newlyweds.

"Is the time of your auction set?"

Zhang Yang suddenly thought that he had to prepare a wedding gift for the eldest brother on the list.

It is necessary not only to be worthy of the other party's value, but also to conform to one's own identity.

It's better to have a little connotation.

It's not easy to find such a thing, and this pair of jade cards in front of you is good.

"Oh?"

Shen Yangling's beautiful eyes fell on Zhang Yang's face, and she asked him with a smile:

"Curator Zhang is interested in this lot?"

"Of course, but I don't mean to go through the back door, I just want to see if the time is too late."

"I understand, Director Zhang, wait a minute, I'll communicate."

Shen Yangling's answer was slightly confusing.

When will the auction take place, and do you need to confirm any information?

But seeing that she did take out her mobile phone, as if she was looking at some document, Zhang Yang waited patiently quietly beside her.

After a while, Shen Yangling raised her head and showed a standard smile to Zhang Yang.

"Director Zhang, I have communicated with the auctioneer here, and if you want to buy it, he is willing to sell it to you according to our estimate."

"Sell it directly? Can it be like this? ”

Zhang Yang is ready to go to Shenghai to participate in the auction.

As a result, you told me that I could teach and receive it privately?

It's too face-saving, Miss Shen.

"Yes, there has been a precedent for such a thing before, but not in the warehouse, but in the preview venue."

"Director Zhang, what do you think?" Shen Yangling asked.

"Of course I don't have a problem with this price."

Zhang Yang almost took out his mobile phone and paid directly.

But it's almost meaningless to just send it out like this.

It just so happens that there is a Huanghuali box from the Qing Dynasty in the museum, which is padded with a layer of Shu brocade cloth, which can just be used to hold this pair of jade bi.

……

It's May.

Linzhou Binhai Hotel.

Chen Yanguang's wedding is making final preparations.

Of course, Zhang Yang can't escape the best man's work.

However, during the rehearsal, the makeup artist suddenly noticed a problem.

This best man surnamed Zhang is a bit of a limelight!

Zhang Yang also saw the makeup artist's embarrassment, and took the initiative to find Chen Yanguang and said:

"If it doesn't work, I'll be a witness."

"Anyway, my Mandarin is very standard, and I can also broadcast the voice."

Before Chen Yanguang had time to express his opinion, Cheng Shihui on the side first rejected Zhang Yang:

"Zhang Yang, you must be the best man."

"Otherwise, my little sisters won't let me go."

"Indeed."

Chen Yanguang also nodded, and mouthed Nunu in the distance.

Motioned for Zhang Yang to take a look.

At the wine table, Wei Fuguang and Huang Bin, the two best men, were pestering the two bridesmaids, their eyebrows fluttering, as if they were telling some joke.

But judging by the reaction of the bridesmaids, it is estimated that it should be a bad joke.

Both of them laughed reluctantly.

"Brother Yang, look at them, look at you, you have to help me hold up the field."

As soon as Chen Yanguang said this, Zhang Yang suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy.

"Okay, don't worry."

"I'll let Sister Gao give me some help later."

In terms of makeup, she has to be Sister Gao, and Andy Lau can be transformed into Ma Dehua by her.

When there were still two hours before the banquet began, Zhang Yang finally met Cheng Erye.

He had just returned from Egypt.

After not seeing him for so long, Cheng Erye looks a lot older, but his eyes have become more energetic than before.

And he's the kind of character that doesn't hesitate.

After saying hello to his daughter and son-in-law, the first thing he did was to find Zhang Yang to catch up.

The first sentence of the mouth is very explosive:

"Zhang Yang, Mao Seventeen was arrested in Egypt!"

"Huh?"

Zhang Yang felt that he had not been separated from the soil worker for a long time, and the speed of going to prison was too fast.

"Did he go to Egypt to dig the pyramids? How can you still be caught? ”

Zhang Yang asked half-jokingly.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Erye nodded very seriously.

"Actually, it's up to me to do this."

"I went to Egypt for tourism, and I had a whim to calculate the feng shui of the pyramids."

"What do you guess I've figured out?"

"How can I guess this......"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said in his heart: At this time, second master, don't sell it.

"Nothing was calculated."

Cheng Erye smiled and told Zhang Yang:

"I told Mao XVII that the Egyptians were buried blindly, and there was no law at all."

"But he didn't think it was because I was poor, and said that he would definitely be able to find a pattern."

"About half a month ago, he told me that he had found a wild pyramid, which had not yet been excavated, and was going to dig into it to see."

"As a result, a week ago, the lawyer he paid for contacted me and said that he had been locked up by the Egyptian police."

"I'll go!" Zhang Yang sighed.

It turned out that the soil workers did not say goodbye in order to experience prison life abroad.

However, the prisons in Egypt are far from being as good as the environment in China.

"Did he dig something up?"

"It seems that a few cat mummies have been dug up, and Pharaoh's mummies must not have them, otherwise his lawyer should be in a hurry."

Seeing Cheng Erye's relaxed appearance, Zhang Yang guessed that he should have been done before he came back.

And so it is.

It is estimated that the soilworkers will suffer for several months before being deported.

"I'll be back this time."

Cheng Erye took a sip of water, pointed in the direction of a couple of newcomers, and said with a smile:

"Except for attending the wedding of the two of them."

"More importantly, we need to organize a global treasure digging team."

"I've found a lot of ancient ruins in Tajikistan, Iran, Egypt and Greece."

"And it's the kind that hasn't been discovered."

"This kind of ...... Won't there be legal risks? Zhang Yang asked in a low voice.

"There used to be, but now it'......"

Cheng Erye smiled and twisted his fingers.

"As long as you give money, the local police don't care at all, I have already asked in advance."

"When the time comes, the things that are dug up will still depend on publicizing your ......"

"No problem." Zhang Yang agreed to come down.

He knew what Cheng Erye hadn't finished speaking.

Looking at the other party's complacent appearance, Zhang Yang was hesitating to tell him:

He will soon set off with Chen Yanguang to the UK.

And it's also a big thing.

The goal this time is one of the precious collections of the British Museum, which Hedong Group has been preparing for more than half a year - Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup!
