Chapter 438: To Make It Bad
The two pulled people, one left and one right, passing by.
The four eyes are facing each other, and the narrow slit of the eyes narrows slightly:
"Yako, look, is it the young man (Japanese) I met at the museum that day?"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"Ask!"
"Hey!"
……
Li Ding'an was expressionless: "Director Wang, can you check that Japanese?" ”
How do you know it's Japanese...... Hey?
Those people you met at the museum?
"What are you looking for, those relics?" Wang Yongqian hesitated: "It's not necessary, right?" ”
This is a foreign country, whether it is a prison or a thief, or collusion inside and outside, it has nothing to do with them in public or private.
What's more, when it comes to the external affairs of Mongolia and other countries, it is still a scandal to say, so there is really no need to ask.
"Don't worry, just ask about the origin and content of these people!" Li Dingan exhaled, "I'm just curious!" ”
Wang Yongqian thought about it, nodded, and the secretary went to the side to call again.
It's all public information, and it's on the diplomatic webpage, so it's very fast: "Mr. Li, these people are the delegation of the Okura Jikosha Society, and the person in charge is the vice president Fujiwara Koichi...... This visit to Mongolia should be to negotiate with the provincial government on the investment in the reconstruction of the ancient city of Hala and Lin......"
Haha, Okura Jikosha?
This is the largest privately owned museum in Japan, and nearly half of the ancient books in the Kyoto University Library, including unique and rare books from the Song and Yuan dynasties, as well as the Inner House Collection such as the "Four Libraries Quanshu" advanced edition, were purchased from the Okura Collection Museum a few years ago.
Of course, it's just a book, and the rest of the artifacts are more: bronze, ceramics, gold and silverware, silk embroidered clothing, lacquerware, wood carvings......
How did they get here?
Anyone who understands understands: seventy percent came from the Anti-Japanese War period, and the remaining thirty percent came from the eighties and nineties, when the criminal activities of cultural relics theft and excavation in China were most rampant.
So, this guy is a repeat offender.
And think about the conversations that the museum hears, hehe!
Li Dingan thought for a while: "You go, I won't go in!" ”
Wang Yongqian looked suspicious: "Where are you going?" ”
"Make a phone call."
"To whom?"
"Chen Jingshu, do you want to listen?"
Wang Yongqian choked up, pointed his finger at him, and went upstairs with the translator and secretary.
Li Dingan returned to the car and dialed the phone. The phone rang twice, and a lazy voice came: "It's not easy, I thought you forgot me?" ”
"How is that possible...... Only called last week? ”
Last week, huh?
You and Yu Huiyin are together every day......
"Just woke up?"
"What do I sleep in the afternoon? Reading ......"
"Pretty idle, huh?"
"Thanks to you."
During this time, Chen Jingshu was on Hong Kong Island, cooperating with Poly and Su Fubi to deal with the leather painting of "Wonderful Stories", so she was not very busy.
However, Li Dingan didn't know, and only thought that she was saying it casually.
"I would like to ask you something: if Mongolian cultural relics are exported from the country, what will be the route? If it is auctioned, which institutions will take over? ”
"Cultural relics, stolen and excavated?"
"Yes!"
"There are many ways, such as Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyz, which border it...... In these countries, cultural relics are loosely controlled, and the management and appraisal agencies are equated, so it is easy to get out of the country. But if it is a film, there are only three most likely institutions: Su Fubi, Christie, and Nagao! ”
"Only these three?"
"It's not absolute, but only these three are the most powerful, and other auction houses can't be washed in va......in in a short time."
Li Ding'an understands in seconds: It's like that leather painting.
That's easy to do, huh?
"Then you can help me keep an eye on the auctions that these auction houses will hold sooner or soon...... There may be several artifacts among them: a Turkic Kedun phoenix crown, a Uighur sheepskin Manichaean book, and a set of twenty-four pure gold harnesses and a jade ......"
"Wait, Kedun Phoenix...... What kind of phoenix crown? ”
The sound of turning the pages came from the phone, "Is it a silver crown of gilded filigree, a wishful crown, and a cirrus wing?" ”
Good guy, do you have clairvoyance?
"How do you know?"
"Half a month ago, Christie's began to advertise, saying that it is one of the town lots in this year's spring auction: the introduction said that the ancient tomb unearthed near the former site of the Qianquan Khan City (Western Turkic Royal Court) in the north of Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, is the tomb of the Western Turkic Dulu Khan......
Li Dingan's eyes were straight: Damn, can you still play like this?
This is obviously excavated from the tomb of the Later Turkic Viga Khan during the Tang Xuanzong period, how did it become the thing of the Western Turkic Lulu Khan during the Tang Taizong period?
And it's so far away: Tashkent to the Orkhon River in Mongolia is more than 3,000 kilometers away.
At first thought: Are you an expert, an art company, a collector with an eye out of anger?
But speaking from the heart, it's really hard to tell: from the rule of Zhenguan to the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, there is only a gap of 60 years. There is basically no difference between the climate, topography and geology of Uzbekistan and Mongolia.
Therefore, even if you use high-precision instruments, such as isotope spectroscopy, you can't detect:
Is it an object from the early and middle Tang Dynasty?
Is it a product of Wensiyuan, which specializes in gold and silver ware in the royal court?
Was it given by the Tang Emperor to the Turkic Khan?
The authenticity is undoubtedly ......
But nothing else, just the economic value, the difference between the two is 108,000 miles.
"Old Tang Book": The name Ashina Ni, his father Mo Heshe (Turkic hereditary official, ruling thousands or thousands of households). Wude Shi (Li Yuan's year name), sent to Chang'an, when Taizong lived in the domain, and became brothers with him...... See no, Li Shimin's sworn brother.
But this is only the second, the point is here: in the sixth year of Zhenguan (630), the people of the country (Western Turks) were promoted as kings. Once established, he did not dare to be the Khan, and sent Chang'an to ...... In the seventh year, Taizong (Li Shimin) sent Liu Shanyin to his tooth (Wang Ting) and canonized him as the Khan of Lu Lu who swallowed Alouba Xili and Lu.
To put it in layman's terms: Dulu Khan was the first Turkic khan in history to be canonized by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and since then the Eastern, Western, and Later Turks, as well as the Khitan and Uighur dynasties, have followed this example until the fall of the Tang Dynasty
To put it in layman's terms: it is a precedent in history and a monument to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty......
Look at Viga Khan again: next year (the ninth year of Kaiyuan), Moju (Viga Khan) will succeed to the throne, Gu begging and begging, please ask the father to serve the Son of Heaven, Xu Zhi...... Li Shimin's sworn brother or Li Longji's righteous son, which one has weight?
Can't compare......
Also: ten years after the death of Viga Khan, the Turks were destroyed by the Uighurs, which means that he almost became the king of the country.
Just about historical and political significance, one in the sky and one underground.
The Japanese are good, there is a Li Dai Taozhuang, and the fish eyes are mixed?
In an instant, several idioms popped up in Li Dingan's mind......
He exhaled again: "What is the valuation of Christie's?" ”
"Between 4 million and 600 dollars!"
"Who sent the shot?"
"Tokyo Okura Jikosha!"
I knew it would be you.
"The pure gold harness you mentioned is also there, a total of twenty-four pieces, also from the tomb of the Dulu Khan."
I haven't seen anything, but I know it with my ass, and it has nothing to do with Lu Khan.
"There is also the sheepskin "Manichae", which was unearthed in Buryatia, Russia, and is said to be the tomb of the Uighur Lipero Khan......"
Haha, it's this trick again?
Guli Pero was the first Uighur khan, canonized by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and was equivalent to the founding emperor of the Uighurs.
Tengrihan, the master of the Manichaean, was in the eighth generation, at the end of the Uighur period, and there was also a difference of 108,000 li between the two.
Naturally, the value of cultural relics is also one heaven and one underground.
What's more, things are still in the museum.
"Got a physical object?"
"It's just an atlas!"
"What else?"
Chen Jingshu said the same, Li Ding'an's comparison one by one, there are not many things, and there are only more than 40 antiques sent for auction by the Okura Collection Ancient Society, but all of them are heavy weapons.
Either this Shan Yu and Yan (Empress), or that Khan and Kedun, the lowest starting price is $2 million. Coincidentally, eighty percent of them can match those fakes in the Qianhang Provincial Museum.
Add it up, and that's more than $20 million?
200 million can't be beaten, which is equivalent to ten times the profit as soon as it changes hands?
He frowned: "There are not many interested people in China, I mean the units that are interested in the cultural relics sent by the Okura Ancient Society?" ”
"Quite a lot, we, Guardian, Rongbao, Shengjia...... And several well-known museums have received VIP invitations from Christie? ”
Li Dingan couldn't stop sneering: Playing slippery, buddy, I know that we love this the most, right?
The Han and Tang dynasties were prosperous, and the national prestige was spread far and wide......
I asked you to shoot a hammer?
He exhaled sharply: "Everything is real, but none of them can match the number, whoever shoots is stupid." ”
"Huh?" Chen Jingshu was stunned for a moment, "Christie's promises that it can be identified on the spot and guaranteed: 72 hours of unconditional refund!" ”
Not to mention seventy-two hours, even seven hundred and twenty hours is fine.
"Believe me, don't talk about experts, you can't test it even if you send it to the laboratory......"
He spoke from front to back, and Chen Jingshu seemed to be shocked, and was silent for a long time.
"I see, can I remind Kwon Young?"
"Of course, try to remind everything you can, you'd better say it's serious, just say it's the ...... discovered by the top experts in China."
"Top experts?" Chen Jingshu smiled again: "You? ”
"I'm not too far from a top expert, am I?" Li Ding'an grinned, "Just kidding, you can mention anyone, don't mention me." ”
"Ah, in danger?"
"There is no danger, but I have already met with that little devil twice, and if I knew that the news was from Mongolia, I might guess that I ......"
Say a thousand things and ten thousand, this is a foreign ......
"I see, you have to be careful!"
"Don't worry!"
"And when are you coming back?"
"I guess it's June at the earliest?"
"So long?" Chen Jingshu paused slightly, "Can I go see you?" ”
Li Dingan didn't think twice: "You can do it anytime!" ”
Chen Jingshu laughed silently.
You're so smart, but you don't even notice it when it comes to Huiyin's city government and emotional intelligence?
How busy are you?
For a while, she even felt much less jealous......
"Don't work too hard, rest more!"
"I know!"
……
Hanging up the phone, Li Dingan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Little Japan is too bad, and his means are still high, he never thought about it, and he can still use this trick?
It's a pity that I don't have time, otherwise I would have to go to Hong Kong Island to make a move.
What's even more regrettable is that he can pit the little devil, but he can only watch?
Anyway, you have to find the ruins first, and everything else has to give way......
Just sighing, Wang Yongqian walked out of the building, the expression on his face eased a lot, and it seemed that the negotiation was completed.
"Professor Bart has agreed, and from tomorrow onwards, he will officially lead the team to join us......"
"There won't be any more demon moths, will they?"
"Don't worry!"
"How much did it cost?"
"Just one, not much!"
Li Ding'an was stunned for a moment: "What about the other one, Professor Merlin?" ”
"It's Dean Merlin, but he has to accompany the Japanese delegation, so he really doesn't have time!"
One will do.
He doesn't even have to do anything, he can be a mascot when he comes......
Li Dingan breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought for a moment and opened the car door: "You can go, and I'll tell you something on the way!" ”
Wang Yongqian didn't care and got into the car.
The car drove towards Hala and Lin, and Li Ding'an was concise and shocked, and said it roughly.
The secretary stared at the pictures on his phone, stunned.
Regardless of whether what Li Ding'an said is true or not, just look at those pictures: the promotional pictures of Christie's auction are exactly the same as the actual photos in the museum?
So which one is true and which one is fake?
It's just right, it's all sent by the Okura Ancient Society, do you dare to be a little more coincidental?
Wang Yongqian was fine at first, but when he heard that many domestic units were the key invitees of Christie's spring auction, and many of them were state-owned collection companies such as Baoli, Guardian, Rongbao and Shengjia, his face suddenly darkened.
What is this equal to, it is equal to the target of Okura Jikosha, which is these domestic companies.
What if you don't find out?
Two hundred million is just second, and it was spread out afterwards, and it was able to laugh off a bunch of big teeth, especially Japan......
Thinking of this, Wang Yongqian's face darkened even more.
"Don't worry, I've asked Mr. Chen to remind all units, no one should be fooled......"
"I won't be fooled this time, but what about next time?"
Where will there be a next time?
It's all specialized in this, how can you be deceived twice by the same thing?
Zhenghu was suspicious, Wang Yongqian shouted: "Stop!" ”
"What are you doing?"
"I'll report!"
Immediately, Wang Yongqian got out of the car.
No, it's just such a thing, what do you send?
Li Dingan didn't know why, and was about to ask Secretary Liu, when a few words vaguely floated in: Japan and Mongolia are united...... Tomb No. 1 of Gaolemaodu.
What's that?
Li Ding'an's eyes were about to protrude: "Secretary Liu, what did Director Wang say?" ”
Dean Merlin said that the provincial government asked him to accompany the Japanese delegation to inspect the No. 1 tomb of Gaolemaodu, and if it goes well, a joint excavation may be possible...... So we gave him money and he didn't dare to take it......"
"The Okura Ancient Society is a non-governmental organization, how can they unite?"
"They just organized, specific excavations, probably the archaeological department of Tokyo or Kyoto University......"
So what's the difference?
His uncle......
The No. 1 tomb of Gaolemaodu is the second large-scale burial site in Mongolia after the No. 2 tomb, so far, more than 200 tombs have been discovered, most of which are the tombs of the Xiongnu nobles from the Western Han Dynasty to the early Eastern Han Dynasty.
Four-leaf flower-shaped gold inlaid jade, iron core bronze gilt handles, copper, silver, gilt wine vessels, chariots and horses engraved with "Yongshi First Year (Emperor Ping of the Western Han Dynasty)", as well as bronze mirrors, jade, pottery and other cultural relics in the Wang Mang period.
Isn't letting the Okura Ancient Society excavate it is equivalent to putting the weasel into the chicken coop?
The key thing is that everything that has a little value is all cultural relics from the Han Dynasty in China. Guess if the old trick will be repeated, using crafts to exchange the real thing?
After it is exchanged, who will it be sold to?
It's literal.
"Why don't you work with us?"
Secretary Liu thought for a while: "Too much! ”
Li Ding'an choked for a moment: first there is Hebo, then there is Lobo, and there are three national museums represented by himself and Wang Yongqian, and the scope of investigation covers half of Mongolia......
But is it watching?
Probably not......
No, it definitely won't!
I can make him yellow......
Li Ding'an fluttered his eyes, scratched his head for a while, and scratched his ears for a while.
It was almost half an hour before Wang Yongqian hung up the phone.
"How's it going, have you made it yellow?"
Wang Yongqian glanced at him, and sighed again: "The progress of the inspection should be hurried!" ”
No, I'm talking about the east, you're talking about the west?
What does my investigation of the site have to do with not allowing the Japanese to excavate the No. 1 tomb of Gao Jin Maodu?
Alas...... It seems to be really related?
After a pause, Li Ding'an sighed: It's not good, the little devil wants to make it bad! (End of chapter)
