"Is this mutton-fat white jade?!" Zeng Tianbao on the side was the first to whisper.

Even if he doesn't care much about running the family business, he can still recognize the famous mutton-fat jade in the jade industry after years of exposure.

Yang Chaze said in a dry voice: "It's not just ordinary mutton-fat jade, it's probably Hetian jade. And judging from the color and oily skin, it's at least from the late Ming Dynasty."

Hao Guangming was not surprised.

When he brought this jade antique, he had some knowledge and guesses in advance.

Based on his limited knowledge, he had previously guessed that this was mutton-fat jade, which was expensive.

So this time he only brought this jade antique.

Then Yang Cha put on special gloves and carefully picked up this small piece of crouching tiger-shaped mutton-fat white jade for appraisal.

While doing various professional appraisals, he said: "Currently, good mutton-fat white jade on the market can be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 grams per gram.

This piece is another jade antique from before the Qing Dynasty, and it has high collection value, and the price is definitely high."

Zeng Guofu's eyes twitched as he listened to the sidelines, and he thought to himself: Master Yang of ours is really upright. Now that he is going to buy someone else's treasure, why can't he praise him a little less?

But I thought that Hao Guangming was Zeng Tianbao’s classmate.

And the two times I came to sell jade and antiques, I either had a lot of money, or people with good sources of goods.

Which one is a big customer that is not easy for him to offend.

So Zeng Guofu smiled and said nothing, but secretly calculated whether he had enough money.

After the appraisal, Yang Cha got a formal appraisal certificate for Hao Guangming, and then Zeng Tianbao took Hao Guangming and the jade antique to the reception room to drink tea and chat.

Because Zeng Guofu needed to consider how much money he would spend to purchase this mutton-fat white jade ancient jade, he even paid attention to acting as a middleman and made an offer to Hao Guangming after confirming the next purchase.

One reason is that "Tsang Tai Fook" does not have sufficient funds.

The second is that he is afraid that his family will suffer a big loss, or that Hao Guangming will suffer a big loss.

Zeng Guofu didn't want to make a one-time deal with Hao Guangming, so earning what he deserved was the safest way.

After waiting until five or six o'clock in the afternoon, Zeng Guofu took Yang Cha to the reception room.

After another long discussion, this piece of crouching tiger-shaped suet-fat white jade, which only weighed one or two hundred grams, was sold for a high price of more than 13 million yuan.

This is because the jade itself lacks a historical story and is just a pure jade antique.

Otherwise, the collection value will be even higher.

However, this jade was not bought by "Zeng Dafu", but by a collector who did not want to be named.

Therefore, in the end, after excluding the transaction tax, agency fees, appraisal fees and other expenses paid to "Zeng Dafu", Hao Guangming could actually get only a little over 10 million.

Compared with the last time when three pieces of jade were sold for two million yuan, the ten million yuan this time is undoubtedly a huge sum.

Fortunately, the money in the transaction was directly transferred to Hao Guangming's card instead of cash, so he was not afraid of anything happening.

After the transaction, Zeng Guofu treated Hao Guangming to a sumptuous dinner at the hotel.

Apart from Zeng Tianbao and Yang Cha, there were only two beauties who were said to be important employees of "Zeng Dafu".

During the banquet, the two took turns toasting to Hao Guangming, but Hao Guangming excused himself by saying he didn't know how to drink.

After all, he had just become a multimillionaire, so he was afraid that he would get into an accident if he drank too much, or he would say something he shouldn't have said while drunk.

After dinner, Hao Guangming rested in the room opened by the hotel.

Nothing happened all night.

After breakfast the next day, Zeng Tianbao drove Hao Guangming and Yang Cha to Kaifeng to visit someone.

"As far as I know, this Mr. Wu has at least three identities. On the surface, he is the owner of an antique calligraphy and painting shop. The second identity is a collector who mainly collects ancient calligraphy and paintings. The third identity is...

A great expert in imitating ancient calligraphy and painting.

Generally speaking, if you want to ask this person to make a move, it’s not enough just to have money, you also need to be introduced by someone, or come up with something that interests him.”

Hao Guangming laughed and said, "Since Master Yang is willing to take me to see Mr. Wu, I must have some respect in front of Mr. Wu, right?"

Yang Cha laughed and said, "Mr. Wu and I do know each other, but it's hard to say how weak I am in front of him. The key is that Mr. Zeng has a friendship with him."

Zeng Tianbao, who was driving in front, smiled and said: "Don't worry, Sixth, since my dad promised to help you, he will definitely not break his promise.

Even if Mr. Wu refuses to take action, we will find someone else.

You don't usually come into contact with this kind of people, but for those of us in the antique business, we know a lot of them.

Of course, the one closest to the provincial capital and the most famous is Mr. Wu."

Hao Guangming asked: "How much does Mr. Wu charge for a job?"

"Haha, it depends on what kind of work you want to ask him to do." Zeng Tianbao laughed first, and then couldn't help but asked curiously: "I said, Lao Liu, it's almost time to reach Kaifeng, you want to imitate

Can you tell me something?"

Before Hao Guangming opened his mouth, Yang Cha coughed and said, "Tianbao, according to the rules of the industry, we can't ask about this matter."

In fact, Hao Guangming had already prepared what he would say if the Zeng family asked him what he wanted to imitate.

As a result, neither Zeng Tianbao nor Zeng Guofu asked about this matter during the phone call or before and after the mutton-fat white jade transaction.

Now he realizes it's because there are rules.

But he didn't care, after all, his true purpose of forging the Dashun Imperial Edict might not even be guessed by others.

So after Zeng Tianbao shut up, Hao Guangming said with a smile: "It's okay to tell you - I'm going to forge an imperial edict from the Dashun period."

"What?!"

Zeng Tianbao was so surprised that he almost couldn't help but hit the brakes.

Next to him, Yang Cha also had a face full of surprise.

"Lao Liu, why are you forging the Dashun edict? Is it Li Zicheng's Dashun?"

Hao Guangming smiled and said: "Besides Li Zicheng, has anyone else built Dashun? As for the purpose of building this thing, it is purely out of interest."

"Interested? I believe you are stupid." Zeng Tianbao couldn't help but curled his lips when he came back to his senses, and then said: "But since you don't want to say it, the third brother won't ask more questions. But I have to remind you that you are violating the law and discipline.

There is no need to do anything. Just have enough money to spend. If you make too much, it will just be a number."

"What you said is very Versailles."

"Have it?"

"Haha, you are just an old Versailles."

Talking and laughing along the way, the three of them arrived in Kaifeng before noon.

I met Mr. Wu directly in an antique calligraphy and painting shop in Kaifeng.

What surprised Hao Guangming was that Mr. Wu looked to be in his thirties or forties. Even though he looked young, his actual age should not be more than fifty.

He was wearing a long robe, his hair was combed meticulously, he wore silver-rimmed glasses, and he had a small beard. He looked like a person from the Republic of China a hundred years ago.

After some pleasantries, the four of them went to the second floor of the store to talk about business.

"You want to imitate a Dashun imperial edict?"

Mr. Wu was also surprised after hearing Hao Guangming's words.

Then he frowned and said: "I can tell you for sure that the collection value of this Dashun imperial edict is not high, but it is quite difficult to imitate it, because the time of Dashun's existence is too short, and the relevant old objects left behind

Very rarely.

Even people in our field don’t know much about things from the Dashun period, and it’s hard to distinguish them from things from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Therefore, even if it does not have much collection value, the cost of imitating it is very high."

Hao Guangming smiled and said: "I am a history buff myself, and I created this imperial edict purely out of interest."

Mr. Wu also heard that this was a perfunctory statement.

Hao Guangming didn't want to tell the purpose, and he didn't want to ask, so he said directly: "For Mr. Zeng's sake, I can take this job, but there is no guarantee that it can be done perfectly. As for the cost, I want fifty

Wan, if you think it’s expensive, forget it.”

After hearing this, Hao Guangming pondered and remained silent for a while.

Zeng Tianbao smiled apologetically and said: "Uncle Wu, you don't want to take this job and deliberately set a high price, right? Why don't you just forge an imperial edict? How can you use five hundred thousand?"

Mr. Wu also smiled and said: "If it is an imperial edict from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, I only want a friendship price of 100,000. But for Dashun's imperial edict, I am already giving your father face by agreeing to do it - you should know that if this thing is turned around,

If I recognize it as a fake or made by me, it will damage my reputation."

After speaking, Mr. Wu put away his smile and looked serious.

Obviously not kidding.

Zeng Tianbao could only whisper to Hao Guangming: "Lao Liu, Third Brother can only help you up to this point. If you really think it's expensive, we can find someone else."

Hao Guangming said nothing.

He had been thinking just now, was Mr. Wu's asking price a trick to trick him?

On a darker note, could the Tseng family be involved?

But it is impossible to say that the Zeng family colluded with this man just to defraud him of 500,000 yuan.
