Chapter 307

After more than an hour, everyone had a great time talking. Wen Yiming took out the fragrance of Jingxin and the fragrance of Anshen, which surprised Ye Chengyao and Zhai Jianmin. Finally, they understood why even Geng Baochang respected this young man very well.

Ling Tiancheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Ye is here, everyone's goal is to hold An Siyuan's special shooting next week. I have an immature suggestion. Can we join forces?"

Everyone's eyes lit up, especially Ye Chengyao, who looked at Wen Yiming with interest and nodded secretly. In fact, Geng Baochang had already explained a lot of information, especially the other party's deep family background and billions of local tyrants.

This billions are extraordinary, and the real cash flow is not an illusory stock price and net worth!

After all, Ye Chengyao is over 80 years old, and the inheritance of so many collections is imminent. Later generations do not like to collect them. They are used to the fate of other people's lifelong destruction, and secretly make up their minds and say, "I agree that this practice is the most popular among the island people back then. Collectors sent a representative to participate in the auction, and no one else takes action."

"When the things are sold back, the internal auction will be held again. Those with higher prices will not only avoid unnecessary internal friction, but also ensure that the quality is kept in the hands of their compatriots."

After saying that, he looked at Wen Yiming and asked, "Sir Gao Yi, young and promising. Our generation is old and needs people with more ability to raise the banner. If we don't dislike it, how can we cooperate for a long time?"

Wen Yiming naturally agreed and agreed with a smile. Not to mention the more than 100 pieces of furniture here, he would not be too much even if he added several times.

Everyone agreed that Wen Yiming would come to participate in the auction this time, and then raise the signs. He would grab all the good things and then distribute them internally. Anyway, Wen Yiming had a lot of demand and would refuse everyone. At worst, he could exchange Ye Chengyao's fine products, which was not a big deal.

Ye Chengyao breathed a sigh of relief and put down the big stone in his heart. No matter what, if he treasured his lifelong collection, he would be the best destination for future generations to understand traditional culture.

He sighed: "For collectors, there are only two possibilities for selling things: one is that the business fails and they have to sell them. There are many examples of this. Moreover, the person you like is gone, and no one is taking over. Children and grandchildren have to separate their families. It is most convenient to sell these things for money. For real collectors, they choose what they like, and they can't bear to leave any of them."

"Many people asked me what the secret of identification is? I said that there is actually no trick to identification, just look more, and look carefully, and see it clearly."

"It's like knowing someone. If you just look at the photos, or listen to someone's introduction and description, it's useless! You have to contact him directly. When everyone has dates, after a while, no matter how others pretend, they don't look like him. You will know that something is wrong at first glance. This is the most important thing."

"There is a good condition here, that is, there are hundreds of items for you to show at auction every year. Whether you buy it or not, you can pick it up and see it, and you have the chance to get it."

Ye Chengyao suddenly remembered something and smiled: "I remember when we saw babies, we also went to museums, but it was not easy. The Forbidden City had the most rules to get things, the number of people was strictly limited, the level definition was stricter, and there were a whole set of rules."

"Once, Minqiu Jingshuo went to see more than ten people, and their dean accompanied him to see things. As a result, after sitting for a long time, he only took out one Kangxi, one Yongzheng and one Qianlong, and only three items."

"At that time, Xu Zhantang became popular and said who didn't have such a lot of things to run so far to see him? He was so angry. Mr. Geng sat next to him, blushing and couldn't take down his face, but he had no choice. Before leaving, he patted my shoulder and asked us to wait for him at Donghuamen the next day."

"The next day we went, and then we saw a Yongle hand cup, a Hongwu underglaze red plum bottle with a lid, and a Chenghua Doucai. Mr. Geng said, let's enjoy it. Only then did we realize that the Forbidden City has rules. If there are more than a few people, the first-class quality cannot be taken out. There were too many people yesterday, and the dean could do anything."

Everyone burst into laughter. Wen Yiming reminded me that if you have the opportunity to deal with the Forbidden City in the future, it would be better that there are fewer people!

Zhai Jianmin added: "The most important thing to get started. If you take more fine products, you can feel them immediately as soon as you get them. For example, Kangxi's things give you a very heavy feeling because their structure is very tight and sturdy. If you pick them up, it is questionable."

We chatted until the evening, and everyone made an appointment to attend the auction a few days later. Wen Yiming and Ling Tiancheng returned to the hotel and suddenly remembered something and asked Heifeng to arrange the itinerary for the next day.

"This is No. 156 Longma Road?"

Wen Yiming found a small villa according to the information. It looked a bit old and there was a small garden in front of it. It was the old residence where Tan Jing escaped to Hong Kong Island.

On the eve of liberation in May 1949, Tan Jing came here with calligraphy and paintings and served as the director of the Chinese Business Association. Later, he was killed by a driving accident and was sentenced to prison. After being released on bail, he was ready to go overseas. In order to prepare funds, he sold some of the authentic and fine products at hand, and the money was worth 600 taels of gold at that time.

Wen Yiming had already inquired before coming. The owner of this place has been immigrating to Canada for several years and the house has been on sale, but the price is high and no one cares about it.

"Boss Wen, many mainland bosses are now investing in and settling down. Look at the large area of ​​the house, there are independent gardens and garages..."

The real estate agent introduced the house eloquently and took Wen Yiming to visit. The first one was the study.

Wen Yiming touched the bookshelf and suddenly asked, "Is there a basement here?"

"Yes, there is a basement of more than 100 square meters, which can be stored in debris, which is very convenient."

The two of them came to the basement again, and Wen Yiming walked around carefully and decided to buy it directly.

"You are so refreshing, 30 million is absolutely worth the money!"

After completing the procedures quickly, this place officially became Wen Yiming's place in Hong Kong Island. He sent the real estate agent away and hurried to the basement. In a hidden position in the corner of the wall, pressed the agency and a secret wall appeared in front of him.

"I just said that old fox Tan Jing can not keep one move? The cunning rabbit has three holes!"

Wen Yiming took out the box inside with satisfaction and began to check the spoils. He first picked up an album and opened it excitedly and said, "The Twelve Mountains and Waters of the Brutal Gua layman Shi Tao, which was handed over by the great collectors of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Shouzheng, Hu Xuefan, and Chen."

"The album of calligraphy and painting of Bada Shanren Zhu Da has been collected in total. It was collected by Qi Baishi and snatched by Tan Jing at a high price."

"Hongren's landscape album in 1663 is 10 out of ten, and is painted by his friend Cheng Zhengkui, with very few remaining people."

"The twelve strange peaks of the sea of ​​clouds are blooming, treasured by the old man in Shixi..."

Wen Yiming excitedly studied the four albums, all of which were masterpieces, representing the highest level of the four monks in the early Qing Dynasty.

At that time, the Qing court in the north regarded the Four Kings as orthodox, but a group of painters with personality appeared in the south of the Yangtze River. They were very different from the style of paintings that the four kings in the northern palace admired imitating ancient times. The four monks were representatives. They became monks and mostly had a strong sense of nationality. Among them, Shi Tao and Bada Shanren were descendants of the Ming royal family.

Tan Jing is worthy of being a big collector with a high taste. The first is hand scrolls for calligraphy and painting, but the number of them is too small. Then there are albums, which best represent the growth process of a painter. Because albums are not necessarily drawn at the same time, many of them are collected by collectors after a long time, sorting out similar subjects or styles, and gathering them, which is particularly rare.

"Is this the three bamboo pictures of Zhao Mengfu of the Yuan Dynasty?"

"There are also Ni Zan's "Picture of the Forests and Valleys in Yushan" and Ke Jiusi's "Pictures of the Palace of Shangjing"?"
