Since Li Mo already knew that master and apprentice Sima Haotian came to Kyoto with a purpose, he naturally did not want to have too much contact with her. Ms. Sui glanced meaningfully at Li Mo's leaving figure, and then glanced at Pei Yanyan calmly.
"Didn't you go to see your master's cousin? Why did you come back so soon?" Qin Jiaye asked curiously. Qin Yali was sitting at a leisure stone table not far away drinking tea, looking a little absent-minded.
"I just went to see him." Li Mo walked to Qin Yali and shouted with a smile, "Auntie, my dad is too stingy. He doesn't make you good tea for this rare visit."
"Xiao Mo, you can't say that to me. I can't bear to drink this tea myself." Qin Jiaye was a little anxious. The child didn't pay attention to what he said and didn't give him any face.
Qin Yali, on the other hand, was amused. She smiled and said, "How unjust your father is. This is indeed the hidden treasure in his hands."
"Auntie smiled, it's great to smile, don't keep frowning. Don't you say that it takes ten years to laugh and smile? No matter what happens, we will all support you. Since it is dad's collection, I will try it too."
Li Mo sat on the chair next to him and poured a glass.
"You, you, you almost scared me just now." Only then did Qin Jiaye realize that Li Mo had deliberately said that he was stingy, just to divert Qin Yali's attention. After his interruption, Qin Yali felt a little more relaxed.
"Auntie, the Gu Yunxuan Pirate Pavilion and Zheng He's Western Pavilion are expected to open next month. Then you can support the scene for me."
Qin Yali sighed softly and said: "I am no longer in charge of the affairs in Yanjiao. There is another person in the department who will directly manage it. You just came back, so I guess Director Gu of the Cultural Affairs Bureau hasn't talked to you yet."
Li Mo finally understood why Qin Yali was not going well at work. It turned out that she was marginalized. In other words, the piece of work that can make her most successful has been taken away by others. This will indeed make people feel depressed.
"Auntie, wouldn't it be that leader who brought Sima Haotian from Wandao to Kyoto to set up a treasure hunting company?"
"Have you guessed it?" Qin Yali nodded slightly and said, "That matter was caused by his manipulation. Xiao Mo, your Grandpa Qin said that behind this matter, people above were actually fighting. What you have done in the past few years It shocked many people and benefited many people, so some people want to take the same path in this regard, hoping to gain extra points for themselves."
Li Mo drank tea silently, and suddenly felt that the tea smelled good, but tasted just so-so. Maybe his mood had changed.
"I heard that Sima Haotian's team found the legendary Nine Dragons Sword, the first national sword of the Qing Dynasty." Li Mo asked calmly, "Has Aunt Qin seen that Nine Dragons Sword?"
"I have seen it, and it is consistent with historical records, but it has not been released to the public. Sima Haotian himself is a master of treasure appraisal, and he also invited many experts and scholars to study together. It is most likely that it is the Nine Dragon Sword buried with Emperor Qianlong. .”
"Does Auntie know who those experts and scholars are? I can guarantee that they are definitely not experts and scholars from Beijing University, Tsinghua University, Kyoto Museum and the Palace Museum."
Li Mo said firmly.
Qin Yali looked at Li Mo, not understanding what he meant.
"To tell you the truth, I have the real Nine Dragons Sword in my hand. If they had invited experts from all over the world, the joke would have spread a long time ago. Today, Vice Principal You of our school also told me that Wen The leader of the management bureau asked me and Professor Zhu Changping to conduct another appraisal together, and I was stunned."
The tea cup in Qin Yali's hand was not steady and fell onto the table, spilling all the tea inside. She was also a little stunned, and after a while she asked in disbelief: "Is everything you said true?"
"Grandpa never mentioned this to you? I thought you already knew it. I bought the Nine Dragons Sword years ago. I was supposed to have a press conference in April, but it was delayed because I went to sea. Now it's really It’s interesting, someone wants to confuse the fake with the real thing. Auntie, let’s not get involved in that matter and see how they mess around. It’s too hard for me to live a peaceful and comfortable life even if I want to.”
Qin Yali, who was originally in a bad mood, immediately became energetic. She smiled and said, "Let's go find a place to have a barbecue. Is it okay to have some beer with my aunt at noon today?"
"One or two drinks is fine. What has Siyuan been doing recently?"
"Being his Internet celebrity, I also registered a formal operating company and cooperated with Siqi to bring goods. The business is very popular and I make a lot of money. Speaking of this, my aunt is still very grateful to you. Thank you. If God opens his eyes, he can bring you back safely."
"Auntie, it's been so long. I won't mention that matter again."
"Okay, I'll ask your dad to prepare some ingredients for us. You sit down and drink tea first."
Li Mo stayed until about four o'clock in the afternoon before preparing to leave, when he received a call from Sui Yunxin.
"Mr. Li, are you still at Greenland Farm?"
"I'm getting ready to leave."
"I'm really sorry today. I didn't expect Pei Yanyan to come over temporarily. I've heard about what happened between you and her master. She has been lobbying my daughter to join the treasure hunting company they established. I don't know what good things Mr. Li has. Any suggestions?"
"You may not like what I say, but since Ms. Sui asked, let me give you a piece of advice: stay away from them as far as you can, otherwise you won't even know what happened if you were led into a pit. "
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then Sui Yunxin's voice came over and said: "I will carefully consider Mr. Li's advice. Thank you. Let's have dinner together next time we have the opportunity."
Li Mo hung up the phone, started the car and drove towards the city. On the way, I received a call from Niu Sanpang, inviting him to his home to help him identify a piece of porcelain. From what he said, the porcelain was interesting, but he wasn't sure if it was real.
It was already half past five when we arrived at Niu Sanpang's house, and the traffic jam along the way made people feel irritated. Fortunately, other cars were kept as far away as possible, and no one dared to get close easily. If they were accidentally hit, the compensation would be enough to buy a very good new car.
"Hello, Mr. Niu."
Mr. Niu was still in good health. Li Mo walked in and saluted him, then greeted the others one by one. Sanpang's two sisters have already married. They are all here today. There should be a family dinner.
"Brother, come on, I found a piece of porcelain in the old street. I'm not sure. Please help me take a closer look." Niu Sanpang happily pulled Li Mo and was about to go to the study, but was stopped by Xu Jiaxin. She was a little He said reproachfully: "Mr. Li is a distinguished guest of ours. Let him rest and make a pot of tea first, and we will appraise the porcelain later."
"Oh, yes, my wife is right." Niu Sanpang has now become a handsome boy. He is no longer close to Fatty, but he still listens to Xu Jiaxin's words, "Brother, let's have some tea first."
"Drinking tea makes sure you're right. Bring over the porcelain you found."
Only San Pang's two brothers-in-law were present and had never met Li Mo, but they often heard legends about him. He has many labels on him, such as Kyoto's Immortal Eye, a billionaire, an associate professor, the number one collector, and a martial arts master. They had no idea about the last label, but the previous labels were all very clear.
"Mr. Li, I have gained a lot from this archaeological trip. I heard that there are more than 500 tons of gold alone, countless other antiques, and thousands of marine paleontological fossils have been excavated. Each of these Everything is very admirable.”
San Pang's father said with a smile, and then skillfully made another pot of tea, which was the newly unpacked Sanye Ya.
"Mr. Li can turn everything into magic no matter what he does. This three-leaf tea was originally just a nameless wild tea, but now it has become popular among the upper class circles. Jia Xin said that her tea chain store has received a lot of pre-orders. She wants to It’s hard not to be popular.”
"My uncle was so complimentary. In fact, I'm not proficient in business." Li Mo was really not being modest when he said this. The company has grown to such a large scale, but he has never been involved in management. All he needs to do is identify a person or something, and grasp the general direction and keep it straight. As for how to do it specifically, it is naturally up to the people below to implement it.
The Niu family is also very powerful, but compared with Li Mo, it pales in comparison. Millennium Shengzang Group's cash flow alone is tens of billions, and every day it considers how to spend it. A family like the Niu family actually has huge positive and negative assets. Once the cash flow is interrupted, the entire building may collapse.
Li Mo is modest, so it's natural that the Niu family won't answer him anymore.
"Brother, this is the porcelain I found on the old street. Take a good look at it."
Niu Sanpang came to bring a round porcelain with a lid from the study. This porcelain has a relatively rare shape, a bit like a short cup.
Li Mo found it interesting at first glance. After the three fat men settled down, he picked it up and looked through it carefully.
"Three Fatties, when you say you're not sure, what do you mean?"
Li Mo stared for a while and looked up at Niu Sanpang.
"The mark is on the bottle. Aren't the standard marks on official kiln porcelain always on the bottom? But this porcelain looks very real in terms of craftsmanship and shape, so I can't grasp it."
"How much did you spend to find it?"
"Eight thousand." Niu Sanpang poured a cup of tea for Li Mo, "Brother, you are an authority in this field. What do you think?"
"Starting from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the bottoms of porcelain from official kilns have standard markings. This is basically no problem, even in the later Qing Dynasty. However, among the Ming and Qing Dynasties, only the porcelain markings from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty were a little different. There is a saying that The inscriptions of the Xuande official kiln are all over the body of the vessel and can be written anywhere, not just on the bottom."
When Niu Sanpang heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "So what I found is a genuine Ming Dynasty product?"
Li Mo did not answer directly, but said: "The shape of this thing comes from ancient bronzes, called 'dou'. If you have visited some bronze museums, you will most likely have seen such a shape. In the Spring and Autumn Period, this kind of The shape is called a hunting pattern bronze bean, and it is generally used for sacrifices."
"The imitation bronze bean porcelain we saw is very well made. First look at the glaze color. The white glaze is bluish, and the white is bluish. It is a special white glaze, which is in line with the Yongle and Xuande reigns of the Ming Dynasty. The characteristics of official kiln porcelain. Look at the flowers on the surface of this porcelain. The middle one is a kind of passion flower, and the bottom one is a beaded lotus petal pattern. This is related to the prosperity of Buddhism at that time. Look at the deep color of the blue and white material. , and at the same time there is obvious haloing, so the imported Su Nibo green material should be used.”
"The porcelain has the regular script 'Made in the Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty' in regular script. This was a normal firing method during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. Sanpang, this is a genuine blue and flower bean from Xuande of the Ming Dynasty. It was a good purchase for 8,000 yuan. It's not a small one." leak."
"Hahaha, I just said that this time it feels very unusual. I really picked it up and missed it. Brother, can you tell me the approximate market value of such porcelain?"
Li Mo thought for a moment and said: "In my impression, an identical porcelain was sold at the Fujibi auction just ten years ago, but that one was without a cover, and it sold for nearly five million. You This covered one is a complete set of Xuande green beans from the Ming Dynasty. If it were sold at auction, it would be worth at least 7 million. It was bought for 8,000 yuan, which is nearly 900 times more."
The eldest brother-in-law of San Pang was a little surprised and said: "No wonder the collection market is very hot now, many people are keen on Taobao. These 8,000 Taobao porcelain, once resold, the return will be about 900 times, which is amazing."
"Yes, the third fat man has really good eyesight this time."
Unexpectedly, the third fat man was happy for a moment and then felt bored and said: "What do I mean? Li Mo spent hundreds and thousands of dollars to find top-notch national treasures worth over ten million, over one hundred million, or even over one billion or several billion. "
"Mr. Li is a god, can you compare with him?"
Xu Jiaxin tugged on his ears. This is really incomparable. The only person who can compare with him in the past and present is probably the former Emperor Qianlong.
"Haha, you are right. My brother is a god, and I am also inspired by him. Jiaxin, put this Ming Xuande blue flower bean back in the study and keep it for yourself. Maybe it will be worth more than ten million in a few years. .”
Niu Sanpang's mentality has also changed quickly. He has followed Li Mo's footsteps in the past few years. His own businesses such as catering companies, tourism companies, and jewelry companies are doing very well. He also invested in tea in cooperation with Li Mo's company this year. The business is on track. Looking at the market feedback, the tea brand Sanye Ya has quickly become a top brand because it has been recognized in the upper class circles.
The family banquet was very sumptuous, and the dishes were cooked by a five-star chef. At the dinner table, Niu Sanpang also mentioned Sima Haotian. There was no way he didn't know it. Back then, Li Mo made nearly a billion from his battle with Sima Haotian.
So as soon as Sima Haotian showed up in Kyoto, he immediately got the news.
"Brother, what do you think their treasure hunting company wants to do?"
"I just came back, so I don't know the details, but I still want to remind you to stay away from them."
Niu Sanpang nodded. Since Li Mo said that, he must have a reason.
