Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

"Is that so? If you haven't taken it down yet, does that mean there's something wrong with the rubbing?"

"The problem is probably not the rubbings, but the boss behind the scenes. Do you think the capital city has more capital or the museum has more power?"

"Makes sense."

Most people don't know that Zulong Auction House and Shengshi Crafts actually have the same owner.

But I know that the owner of the auction house is a big shot and influential in the industry.

At the same time, Zulong Auction House is an enterprise invested by businessmen from Hong Kong City. It was snatched back from other places by the investment promotion department of the capital city. Of course, they must be fully supported.

Not only did they not have any suspicion, but they even wanted to join in the fun.

"Mr. Lin, our marketing plan is very successful." Wu Ning smiled.

When he took the painting from Liu Jingfeng, he and Liu Jiajia were both present.

The delivery scene at that time shocked them very much.

Not only people from the two major treasure appraisal firms in the capital sent cultural relics, but also hidden bosses from all walks of life.

It can be said that the items they auction are already at the top level of cultural relics that can be sold by the private sector.

If these calligraphy, paintings and cultural relics were placed in other small auction houses, they would definitely have to brag about them for a long time.

But they were all suppressed behind Wu Daozi's paintings.

Even Chen Qi had the idea of ​​buying it.

He was just persuaded to give up by Lin Ran. These things were all sent by friends for auction.

And it has been publicized to the outside world. If they go back on their words now and operate in private, their auction house's name will be damaged.

Chen Qi smiled and said: "I don't want to buy it privately, I will also participate in this auction."

Their brochures have been printed and distributed, and it is no longer possible to keep a low profile.

Tang Lanxuan felt a little pity. Even if he wanted to buy this painting, he would probably have to spend half a year or more of the museum's funds.

It is not impossible to forcefully buy it, but the financial pressure on the museum will be great.

There are also task indicators issued by the Ministry of Culture and Culture. They also need to acquire more than two hundred cultural relics.

It is impossible to pay a large price to buy this work, otherwise no other work will be possible.

Fortunately, Lin Ran agreed to donate some of the pottery figurines to the Palace Museum as compensation after the cultural relics were restored.

A pottery figurine he sent is now on Tang Lanxuan's desk.

Tang Lanxuan looked at the pottery figurines and felt a little strange.

I invited Mr. Qin to study with him, and finally concluded that this was a pottery figurine from the Yuan Dynasty, judging from the clothing style.

But Tang Lanxuan knew that what Lin Ran told him was not that simple. With this pottery figurine, he could apply to the superiors to seal the ancient tomb.

The same news came from the National Museum, so people from the Ministry of Culture and Culture found it strange that the two museums would stand on the same front.

They represent authority, so the Ministry of Culture and Culture immediately issued an order, requiring the local archaeological department to conduct inspections, but only required outside surveys. If the situation was true, funds would be allocated to seal the local area.

Tang Lanxuan knew very well that the cultural relics in that ancient tomb were probably worth even more.

In comparison, the mural rubbing just now seems less precious.

Mayor Gu even arranged it himself and asked Tang Lanxuan about the calligraphy and painting.

Ask him not to make any other demands for the auction unless necessary.

With such an order from above, Tang Lanxuan certainly would not bite the bullet and ask Lin Ran for calligraphy and painting.

But I was still thinking to myself, this guy's connections are really scary.

In the past, you could use the name of museum director to suppress him, but now...

Everyone in the Chinese Department seemed to know Lin Ran, and before he knew it, he could only get along with him in the name of teacher.

"This kid is growing up really fast." Tang Lanxuan showed a happy smile on his face.

The talent comes from the blue, which is vividly reflected in Lin Ran.

Finally, the auction started as scheduled.

Sure enough, as expected, in addition to merchants from the capital, there were also a large number of well-known collectors from all over the country who attended the auction.

In the end, this calligraphy and painting was bought by a businessman in Nanling for 30 yuan.

Even a big boss like Chen Qi could only buy Tang Yin's "A Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix".

The auction ended as scheduled.

Tang Lanxuan and Lin Ran both secretly remembered the businessman's name and asked him to go to the backstage for statistics.

Knowing that this businessman would certainly achieve something, Lin Ran just looked at the name he left behind to confirm the authenticity and let him leave.

The businessman was very surprised.

Regular auction houses are very strict about buyers' information statistics.

Unexpectedly, the boss saved him a lot of trouble with just one word.

I was very surprised when I saw Lin Ran. I didn't expect that the boss behind the auction house was so young.

This was also the first time Lin Ran saw young Mr. Liu.

Many years later, the logistics company he founded will become famous all over the world.

The two hit it off immediately, and Mr. Liu admired Lin Ran's generosity very much.

"If you have a chance to come to Jinling in the future, just come to me directly and I'll give you everything."

"must."

Lin Ran sent him out of the auction house.

Others were a little confused. This man was not a leader or a well-known businessman, so why was Lin Ran so polite to him.

Lin Ran didn't know how to explain it. After all, he was still just a small person now.

It will be five years before he shows his prominence in the market.

However, he also became certain of one thing.

Mr. Liu's family is not poor.

At least he had the money to buy such a valuable cultural relic. No wonder he was able to create a self-made image after establishing a world-renowned logistics company.

The real poor have so much capital for trial and error.

However, Lin Ran also found it interesting to be able to meet such a big shot when he was so young.

It's almost the 90s, and many of the big guys he knows are already eager to try out, preparing to use the open stage to show off their skills.

The engineers previously invited back from Yunhai Temple have also been assigned to carry out research and development work.

Lin Ran also planned to get on this train and go further than them.

After recovering cultural relics from abroad, you can enjoy your retirement life.

Lin Ran then patted his forehead, hey, a common man always thinks about such far-fetched things.

However, the country has no small problems, so I try my best to help.

At this time, Chen Qi came to him.

Looking at the scroll in his hand, he frowned and said, "Is this really Tang Yin's authentic work?"

"You are an investor in the auction house, shouldn't you doubt our level?" Lin Ran smiled.

Tang Yin's "Hundred Birds Worshiping the Phoenix" in his hand has always been famous in the circle.

But there are very few people who have actually seen the scroll.

Basically no one has seen the original work. Lin Ran remembered that in his previous life, this calligraphy and painting was collected in a museum in Guangcheng and was not made public until 20 years later.

What he is holding in his hand now is most likely genuine.
