Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning
Chapter 2192: Not for Sale
Without further explanation, Wen Ya just smiled and said nothing.
Naturally, Wen Ya would not sell antiques of this level.
"Everyone, please take your time to appreciate it." Wen Ya smiled at the guests, then called her subordinates and whispered: "You continue to host the tasting party and entertain the guests well."
"Yes." After receiving the answer from his subordinates, Wen Ya came to Lin Ran and the others.
"Brother Lin, Director Tang, Mr. Xu, could you please lend me a moment to speak?"
After Wen Ya finished speaking, she walked straight out of the venue. The three of them looked at each other and followed behind.
He was seen leaning against the wall with a solemn expression.
In the tasting venue, enthusiastic collectors have been attracted by the antiques in the venue.
After all, it was a heavyweight tasting event, so they naturally did not pay more attention to the host.
Chang Zheng just frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable that he couldn't hold this antique.
Some people still feel that something is wrong.
Among them are Zhou Xuelin and Jin Xi.
"Teacher, what are they talking about when they go out?" Jin Xi looked worried, "Should I have to give that thing to them too?"
"Probably not." Zhou Xuelin also had some unconfidence on his face, but the bodyguard was standing at the door of the venue, obviously not letting them out.
"Just wait and see what happens." Zhou Xuelin said, now he can only take one step at a time.
Lin Ran and the other three came to Wen Ya, and he slowly turned his head and looked at them.
Then he showed his face and said gently: "Guys, to tell you the truth, I did encounter some problems."
You continue to organize tastings. Brother Lin, Director Tang, and Mr. Xu, can you lend me a moment to speak? "
Although Lin Ran didn't know what his relationship was with Tang Lanxuan and Teacher Xu, he could tell that he trusted them very much, and they were also very polite to him.
Are you asking them to borrow money?Mingyue Villa is temporarily unable to turn over funds?
Lin Ran was filled with doubts, but Mr. Xu and Tang Lanxuan just smiled: "Wen Ya, just say what you have to say."
"Hey, you saw it just now. The Jade Pig Dragon is right in front of you, but those people are blind." Wen Ya sighed. She thought that the people invited were all big names in the collection industry, and they should be familiar with the Jade Pig Dragon. Some understanding.
As a result, this group of people only care about profits and don't care about history at all.
This is where Wen Ya is most disappointed.
Lin Ran thought this was normal. After all, information in this era was relatively limited. If you hadn't paid attention to this period of history and studied the looted cultural relics, you might not necessarily know the origin of these cultural relics.
After all, compared to the animal head, its popularity is still relatively low.
Tang Lanxuan also comforted him: "Wen Ya, you don't have to be so sad. They just don't know the reason. Once they know, they will still express their feelings."
"Haha." Wen Ya smiled bitterly, "That's just them stating their position, not really protecting the stolen cultural relics."
"A gentleman's deeds have no regard for his heart." Lin Ran said.
He didn't want to discuss this issue further, and he felt like he was gossiping behind someone's back.
And he felt that Wen Ya had something important to do by calling them out.
If it's not borrowing money, it's related to the Jade Pig Dragon.
After being reminded by Lin Ran, Wen Ya immediately stopped talking and stood up straight again.
"Brother Lin is right. Director Tang, Mr. Xu, I wonder if any of you can accompany me to the Curry Country when you are free?"
"Curry country?" The three of them were a little confused.
Afterwards, Wen Ya explained the whole story.
It turns out that he commissioned a man from Curry to buy this jade pig dragon.
And just the day before today's exhibition, he called himself again and told him some amazing news.
An auction is going to be held in Mumbai, the land of curry, and some footage was broadcast that day.
Among them was a British couple who wanted to consign a collection.
His friend was very interested in Chinese culture, so he could tell at a glance that it was the Chinese dragon robe.
Knowing that Wen Ya was very interested in this kind of collection, she immediately told him about it.
And also faxed him a photo.
He took out the photo, although it was blurry and it was taken in front of the TV.
But it can be seen that what is displayed on the TV is indeed a dragon robe.
"The gold-colored robe and golden sleeve edges. This robe is obviously designed for women."
"It's most likely the clothes of the queen or a first-class concubine."
Lin Ran looked at the old photos and felt a little incredible.
They are all mosaics, which can actually exude a strong historical atmosphere.
Wen Ya was overjoyed, but she didn't expect that Lin Ran could see this.
"Brother Lin, can you roughly estimate the era of the clothes?"
"This style of clothing is obviously the style of the Qing Dynasty court."
The clothes of the Qing Dynasty are actually quite recognizable, even in old photos.
What's more, the color of this robe is yellow, which is the color of dragon robes.
Lin Ran felt that these were most likely the queen's clothes, specially used to highlight the queen's noble status.
But he couldn't determine which queen it belonged to.
Tang Lanxuan was heartbroken when he saw it: "This was obviously robbed and hidden by soldiers back then."
After looting the Old Summer Palace in China, not all soldiers would hand over their trophies, and there would be some private collections.
It is very difficult to recover cultural relics collected by large museums.
These privately hidden cultural relics are their primary target for recovery.
After all, they will definitely put it on the market to sell.
The soldiers at that time did not understand the significance of this robe. They probably just thought that the emperors of China all wore yellow and this robe should be valuable, so they hid it on their bodies and took it back to their country.
Now it's actually taken to Curry Country for auction.
The three of them immediately understood what Wen Ya meant.
"You want us to go with you to get your things back?"
"It's probably impossible to come back." Wen Ya said, "Overseas countries will not stand on the same front as us. This auction will be held in Mumbai. I would like to ask you to send someone to go with me."
Wen Ya was worried that this thing was just an imitation. After all, foreigners had not studied the history of China, but their counterfeiting skills were very high.
There is absolutely no problem if he spends money to buy it, but if he spends money to buy imitations, it will be too much.
Lin Ran nodded, Wen Ya was not a fool, she had someone to run the hotel on such a large scale.
Therefore, it is best to have someone with an innocent identity accompany Wen Ya and participate in the auction as a foreign Chinese.
It sounds really helpless to say that I have to use my identity as a person from another country to buy cultural relics.
"Can you get a fake identity?" Lin Ran asked.
"You don't have to worry about this." Wen Ya said. His first thought was to invite Tang Lanxuan to go with him.
But he was rejected by Tang Lanxuan because Tang Lanxuan didn't understand foreign languages and the secret was revealed after just a few sentences.
In the end, this task was naturally handed over to Lin Ran.
"Lin Ran, are you willing to go abroad?" Tang Lanxuan asked earnestly.
Naturally, Wen Ya would not sell antiques of this level.
"Everyone, please take your time to appreciate it." Wen Ya smiled at the guests, then called her subordinates and whispered: "You continue to host the tasting party and entertain the guests well."
"Yes." After receiving the answer from his subordinates, Wen Ya came to Lin Ran and the others.
