Chapter 340 Where Did Mr. Cheng Go?

Although Zhang Yang felt that there might be something wrong with Cao Jiayun's things, he was still a semi-public figure and could not spread rumors in his live broadcast.

Therefore, if you have inner doubts, you can only ask the other party in another way.

"Miss Cao, is this thing of yours inherited from your ancestors?"

"No, it was a gift from a friend."

"Is it a gift from a friend? I understand. Come on, come closer. I'll take a look at the word "longevity" on it."

In fact, the best way to identify Wanshou Zun is to first look at the bottom.

Treasures like the Wanshou Zun are the largest blue and white statues of the Kangxi Dynasty. After all, they are too small to write 10,000 words. However, because of their large size, they are quite difficult to manufacture and even more difficult to preserve.

The soles of the few existing Wanshou statues are all cracked.

However, looking at Cao Jiayun's physique with thin arms and legs, it didn't look like she could pick up Wanshou Zun and show off her lower legs. Zhang Yang thought for a while, then he would just pretend to read the Chinese character longevity.

Anyway, he doesn't rely solely on looking at things.

Soon, item information emerged.

There are no major problems with this Wanshou Zun.

The only drawback is that it has been repaired.

Most of it is original, but the edges should have been knocked off and there are signs of repair.

Although it is not as perfect as the one in the Forbidden City, for such a large artifact, it hardly affects the value of the thing.

Zhang Yang conservatively estimates that the price is still around 60 million, and it can be even higher if it is auctioned.

He should have told Cao Jiayun directly about the identification results, but when the words came to his lips, Zhang Yang changed his mind.

Who caused the two of them to have conflicts before?

"Oh, Miss Cao, there's something wrong with this thing of yours." Zhang Yang was deliberately startled.

"What's the problem?" Cao Jiayun asked doubtfully.

"It's a big problem."

"Did you see the very thin gap on it? It's obviously been knifed, and it's not original."

[Anchor You said the best thing is porcelain]

[Once you accept the setting that the anchor and Baoyou are enemies, how interesting will this live broadcast be?]

[I feel like I’m talking about a knife being used on this woman’s face]

[Stupid brothers, let’s learn what a smiling tiger is]

[Teacher, please let this sister go and let me do it]

"Here?" Cao Jiayun frowned and pointed to the hair-like crack.

"Yes, yes." Zhang Yang nodded.

"No, this seam is not light-proof. It is just cracked, just like the opening of porcelain."

"Do you still know how to open a movie?"

Zhang Yang asked casually, but immediately felt that the sarcasm was a bit too heavy, and immediately changed the subject.

"This is the mark of your repair. I am a professional. You didn't buy it as a beauty, did you? How much did it cost?"

"It was cheap when I bought it, about two million yuan."

"But didn't you just say it was a gift?" Zhang Yang quickly asked.

He asked the question very quickly, as if on reflex, not giving the other party time to react, and trying to catch him by surprise.

Spending more than two million yuan to buy a Wanshou Zun must have been the market for more than 20 years. At that time, Cao Jiayun was probably still playing with snot and bubbles.

"Well... half buy and half get free. You are a treasure appraiser, why do you care so much?" Cao Jiayun pursed her lips with a half-smile.

She originally wanted to act coquettishly, but after finding out that the target was Zhang Yang, she held back.

"That doesn't make me feel guilty."

"Who gave you this? Are you sure it's okay? After I've appraised it for you, the police car parked directly downstairs."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he stopped talking and blinked.

The meaning is very clear: If you don't explain clearly the origin, I will feel panicked and dare not continue talking.

Anyway, I've told you that things have signs of repair, so I don't believe you can bear it.

"I just realized that Master Zhang is so curious..." Cao Jiayun sighed and said with a bit of resentment, "I am so sincere to you, but you have a hundred evil intentions towards me. Is this appropriate?"

Suitable, so suitable.

Sister, have you forgotten that you are still on probation?

"The key point is that you don't know who gave it to me. Mr. Huang, do you know? A business partner from a long time ago." Cao Jiayun explained helplessly.

"It can't be Huang Wutong, right?" Zhang Yang immediately called out a name.

"Huh?!" Cao Jiayun never expected to hear this name from Zhang Yang.

Huang Wu and Mr. Huang were the big bosses that Cao Jiayun met when she was following her former boss in Southeast Asia.

People who often commit crimes know that the top foreign criminals are actually just a few people, all in a small circle.

Huang Wutong is a leader in the financial fraud and money laundering industry in Southeast Asia.

Cao Jiayun's former boss transported cultural relics and made many powerful overseas buyers. Mr. Huang was one of them.

To be precise, this Wanshou Zun should have been bought by her boss, but her name was written on it when paying.

It was originally intended to be used to celebrate the birthday of the boss's mother, so the company's account was not charged. Cao Jiayun advanced more than one million, and the boss paid for the rest with cultural relics from abroad.

Because the thing was too big, it took a lot of effort to get it back, but before it could be put to use, Zhang Yang took action.

Now, the boss probably couldn't come out. After returning to his hometown, Cao Jiayun suddenly remembered that he still had this thing, which was worth a lot of money.

She planned to sell it as a personal belonging, but she lacked the means to realize it.

Then I remembered to come to Zhang Yang for appraisal, and see if the goods could be shipped out through Zhang Yang.

She doesn't care about probation or anything else, as long as there are benefits, we can discuss it.

But Zhang Yang's words "Huang Wu Tong" really confused her.

What's going on? Why does he know everyone?

Is this a "public world"?

"Do you know Mr. Huang?" Cao Jiayun still wanted to confirm again.

"The one who launders money, right?"

"You really know me!"

Now Cao Jiayun has no doubt that Huang Wutong should be the only one responsible for money laundering.

"Of course, everyone should know each other after a while."

A mysterious smile appeared on Zhang Yang's lips, and he directly revealed the final answer before Cao Jiayun spoke.

"You must want to ask me why everyone will know Mr. Huang in the future, right?"

"Because he was already in, and it was the kind of big case that would make the news."

"You must keep this thing well. It is very likely to be physical evidence. I will help you report it to the Jinmen police. You are welcome, our friendship..."

"I'll blanch it!" Cao Jiayun couldn't stand it any longer and was about to curse, "NTM..."

However, Zhang Yang had quick eyesight and quick hands and cut him off directly.

"Brothers, is it too difficult to guess this woman's thoughts? You think so." Zhang Yang smiled and communicated with the barrage, "I kindly helped her, but suddenly she started scolding her."

【This girl is really tolerant】

[Support the scumbag Master Zhang]

[Backstabbing is not scary, what is scary is backstabbing twice]

[Who gave you the confidence? It’s the police, then it’s okay]

While chatting on the barrage, Zhang Yang was not idle either. He had already sent a message to Captain Zhu.

Needless to say, I just asked him to watch his live broadcast later and arrange for Xiao Tang to edit this section later.

I hope Miss Cao will still be in the same mood as Lian Mai when she comes out next time.

…

The next treasure friend is a professional collector of white porcelain.

As soon as Zhang Yang connected to the microphone, he knew it when he saw the rack full of antique porcelain behind him.

"Hello teacher, I specialize in collecting Dehua white porcelain."

As Baoyou spoke, he turned sideways and showed everyone the things on the antique shelf behind him.

As soon as I walked down, it was all white porcelain.

At first glance, most of them are Guanyin statues.

The Dehua white porcelain Guanyin statue is a world-famous treasure. He has a full antique shelf.

"Let me ask the teacher a question first. Have you done any research on Dehua porcelain?"

Baoyou's tone in the second half of his sentence was a bit like those old experts at the National Expo.

Before they asked Zhang Yang to identify it, they also asked, "Xiao Zhang, have you done any research on this?"

Baoyou gave Zhang Yang the illusion that he was here to test himself.

"I understand a little bit, that's all." Zhang Yang was still very humble.

Although Dehua white porcelain is one of the compulsory courses for learning ancient porcelain, if Baoyou really specializes in collecting this, then his theoretical knowledge must be better than Zhang Yang.

After studying for a long time, who can’t memorize a few sentences from the information?

"Understand a little? That means you understand it very well."

Baoyou directly distorted Zhang Yang's speech, and then asked him to test him.

"Teacher, please help me control my eyes. Which of these statues are real?"

"As a friendly reminder, only one thing is true, so don't be fooled."

"Don't do it, friend Bao. An authentic Dehua white porcelain Guanyin statue from the Ming Dynasty costs at least hundreds of thousands less. How can you display it so easily?"

As soon as Zhang Yang saw Baoyou's way of arranging the porcelain sculptures, he knew there must be something wrong with the thing.

The antique shelf was placed in the middle of the road, with a large tea table like that used by southerners drinking tea behind it. If the shelf and antiques were accidentally toppled over, wouldn't it be a huge loss?

Not to mention using glass display cabinets, at least put them against the wall.

"That's it?"

"Teacher, based on this, you concluded that these are all fake? Isn't that too hasty?"

"If you want me to look at them one by one, that's fine. Come on, pick up any one and I'll definitely be able to tell you which one is ugly."

"okay."

Baoyou seems to be waiting for publicity here.

He casually took out a Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara statue.

This Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara statue is completely different from traditional Buddhist statues. The backlight of the Avalokitesvara statue is creatively carved into densely packed palms.

My scalp feels numb after looking at it for a long time.

Zhang Yang looked at it for a moment and then directly told this friend who wanted to test him:

"This imitation of He Chaozong (the first porcelain sculptor in the Ming Dynasty) is too hasty. Look at the Buddha's hands on the backlight, which look like tiger skin and chicken feet. How can they have the beauty of the Guanyin statue?"

"If such a piece is authentic, it should cost tens of millions. But the imitation is so rough that it would be difficult to even fetch a thousand yuan."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he looked at Baoyou.

It’s time for the judge teacher to make an evaluation.

Unexpectedly, Baoyou didn't say anything more about Zhang Yang's appraisal, but turned to look to the side.

As if saying to the people around me:

"Did you hear that, classmate Tiger Skin and Chicken Feet? Look at what kind of defense you're talking about. Don't you be so harsh now?"

"Are you talking to your friend or your apprentice?" Zhang Yang finally realized that Baoyou was using himself as a gunman, "You have lost your sense of martial ethics."

"I'm sorry, teacher, I'm training my apprentice."

Baoyou quickly apologized and regained a little of Zhang Yang's goodwill.

"Tell me the truth, is there nothing on this shelf that I can read?"

"From the perspective of treasure appraisal, no." Zhang Yang shook his head, "It's all fake at first glance."

"Are you making antique handicrafts?"

"That's right, but we are not selling them as fakes, we are high imitations."

Baoyou turned the camera and saw that except for an apprentice who had been trained to bow his head and become autistic, the rest of the room were all white porcelain sculptures.

【National Treasure Gang is ecstatic】

[Good guy, so many fake antiques]

[Is it the largest Dehua white porcelain counterfeiting base in the country?]

[I don’t believe he doesn’t sell fake antiques, otherwise why would he ask a teacher to appraise them? 】

Zhang Yang doesn’t agree with the barrage’s view.

If someone dares to show up on camera like this, there must be no problem on the surface.

"Speaking of which, friend Bao, do you have any old Dehua white porcelain here? Let us enjoy it."

You’re here, it’s good to be able to feast your eyes.

Otherwise, Baoyou just passed the exam in vain.

"Okay, teacher, please wait a moment."

Baoyou took his mobile phone and ran all the way to the next room.

This time, the collection in the room was right.

Everything is placed in a separate glass display case, and the display case has its own white light. It is obvious that it is placed in the cabinet for viewing, and there is no intention of taking it out.

Zhang Yang usually sees statues of Guanyin and Arhat made of Dehua white porcelain, but there are obviously more varieties here in Baoyou.

"This is an imitation bamboo gourd vase from the late Ming Dynasty. I bought it from Yanjing in 2021 for 300,000 yuan." Baoyou took the initiative to introduce it.

"This is a Chilong-held teapot from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. It's a little cheaper, only 150,000."

"This is a white-glazed bamboo flute. Teacher, can you play the flute?"

"I will...no, it doesn't matter."

Zhang Yangxin said it was risky, but he almost fell for it.

"Friend Bao, how much does it cost to sell a piece of Dehua white porcelain handicraft you usually sell? There are many big brothers in our live broadcast room who want to buy it."

"The Thousand-Hand Guanyin just now is cheap, a few hundred yuan; the one I made by myself is more expensive, costing thousands."

"I see." Zhang Yang nodded, "It seems you have to sell a hundred fake ones before you can buy one real one."

"Huh?" Baoyou was stunned, and immediately realized what Zhang Yang meant, and quickly explained, "What we sell are not fakes, they are handicrafts."

"If you shine a strong light on the base of the porcelain sculpture, you can see the word "Made by Craftsman" faintly written inside the porcelain sculpture. That means it was produced by us."

"There's also anti-counterfeiting, it's amazing." Zhang Yang nodded sincerely.

Baoyou, this design is good for treasure appraisal anchors. If you encounter someone appraising Dehua white porcelain statues in the future, you should turn on the light first and take a look.

"Yes, we are doing serious business. So, teacher, can you help us with the sales? It's not easy to do business now."

"Okay, come on, please link up on the little yellow car... Oh, it's not linked yet. How about we chat privately after we get down?"

"Okay, okay, thank you teacher."

[Anchor, don’t you think he is here to cooperate with you?]

[Damn, you were just acting, right?]

[If you dare to bring goods today, you will dare to beat people tomorrow]

"It's definitely not a script."

"Hey, the brothers in our live broadcast room are like mirrors in their hearts. Let's not talk about it. I'll just buy this kind of handicraft and give it to the brothers to draw a lottery."

"Come and welcome the next treasure friend."

"This is a boyfriend..."

Zhang Yang saw that the other party's profile picture looked familiar, and even blocked each other... Damn, isn't this Mr. Cheng's account?

Why is IP in Iran? Why did he go to ancient Persia?
