"This kind of thing is rough in workmanship. I can tell at a glance."
Fortunately, he had gained some relevant knowledge when he went to country y to buy antiques on behalf of the Tang family, otherwise he might have really messed up in a few days.
After all, no one would have thought that his subordinates would actually send counterfeit goods.
"Brother Yi, you are so amazing!" Zhong Yu made a starry-eyed clasp with a heart in his hand, "Can you tell me about it?"
"The craftsmanship of Chinese pottery was already very mature during the Qin Dynasty. Although it is very old, it is not so rough. This one looks like a modern imitation, and the aesthetics tend to be modern.
The most important thing is the decoration on the edge of the pottery pot... This decoration is indeed from the Qin Dynasty, but this kind of decoration can only be used by nobles, but this pottery pot is a common water storage tank for ordinary farmers, so
Do you understand why I said it is a fake?"
Zhong Yu nodded as if he understood: "It probably means that now we have discovered the clothes of ancient farmers, but there is a dragon embroidered on them?"
"Smart." Xu Tian patted Zhong Yu's head approvingly, "So it's fake just by looking at it. That Elder Li can't even see such an obvious flaw. He either doesn't know much about antiques or he doesn't care about me.
Not satisfied."
"Elder Li is a pretty good person. I don't feel like he wants to go against you on purpose." Zhong Yu touched his chin, "He usually likes to collect jade, maybe because he doesn't know much about pottery."
"Since he has given me all the gifts, I should also express my gratitude." Xu Tian said to Zhong Yu, "Wait a while and you will accompany me to the two-yuan store to buy a piece of jade and give it to him."
"Pfft..." Zhong Yu couldn't help laughing, "Brother Yi, you still haven't restrained your vengeful character at all."
Elder Li has always prided himself on being an expert, but even though he knew it was a worthless brand, he still accepted it respectfully because it was given to him by Brother No. 1 and kept it in a collection room full of treasures. He was afraid that he would die of nausea.
"Do you have anything else? If nothing happens, I will continue to approve the documents." Xu Tianke didn't like that there were people and supervisors staring at him when he was working.
"Brother Yi, there is one more thing." Zhong Ling's sharp gaze fell on Xu Tian, as if he wanted to see through him.
"Say it quickly." Xu Tian said impatiently.
"There's something wrong with Teacher Guo." Zhong Ling asked tentatively, "Brother 1, you shouldn't have forgotten Teacher Guo, right?"
"Zhong Ling, if you talk to me with this attitude again, then get out."
Xu Tian was really impatient this time. He tried again and again. This woman who is suspicious by nature won't give up until she finds out her own flaws, right?
"you……"
Zhong Ling didn't expect that Xu Tian would suddenly get angry, and was a little stunned for a moment.
"What are you doing?" Zhong Yu pushed the girl next to him away in disgust, "Didn't you see that Brother Yi is upset about these documents? Are you still trying to be mysterious? Who will be scolded if you don't get scolded?"
"Brother Yi, let me tell you, isn't the pottery made by Teacher Guo...that is, Guo Sanping very popular?"
"Then what?" Xu Tian ignored Zhong Ling.
"As a well-known pottery master on Wuji Island, his works are the most popular in the collection world. In the past, he held exhibitions and sold works, all of which were entrusted to our Canglang Palace. We also made a lot of money because of this. But last year, Guo
Sanping suddenly gave the license to his work to someone else. After so many years of cooperation, he cut it off unilaterally without even saying hello. This is too unruly."
"That old guy has such a bad temper that you can control him. Why don't you give him a call?" Zhong Ling said with some schadenfreude, "If that old guy knows that you are back, Brother Yi, he will definitely be so scared that he wets his pants.
of!"
"Brother Yi, please call him." Before Xu Tian could express his position, Zhong Ling, who was next to him, took out his cell phone and dialed Guo Sanping's number without saying a word.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Xu Tian glanced at the girl who was making her own decisions, and said in a calm tone, "Whatever I do, it's not your turn to intervene."
"Brother First, this matter is related to the profits of the Canglang Palace Commercial Department in the second half of the year. It is an urgent matter, and I have to let you handle it immediately." Faced with Xu Tian's accusation, Zhong Ling was neither humble nor overbearing.
Xu Tian sneered.
If it's really an emergency, Zhong Ling will take care of it without waiting for him to come back.
This Guo Sanping had terminated his cooperation with Canglang Palace last year and delayed the matter until now. Yet he still had the nerve to tell him that the matter was urgent.
Although Xu Tian was very unhappy with Zhong Ling's repeated tests, he had no choice but to be cautious.
As long as Zhong Ling finds obvious flaws, even if he has doubts, he can't do anything to him.
The phone was quickly connected, and an impatient old voice came from inside.
"Zhong Ling, it's useless for you to call me. I have decided not to cooperate with Canglang Palace a long time ago. My works will have nothing to do with you in the future. If you keep pestering me..."
"Old man Guo, I haven't seen you in a few years. It seems that you have a good temper." Xu Tian took the phone and spoke sadly.
"Who are you?" Guo Sanping was slightly startled.
"You can't even recognize my voice?" Xu Tian sneered, "It seems that your life has been too comfortable in the past few years. Do you need me to say hello to my people and ask them to pay more attention to you?
studio?"
"You...you are..." Guo Sanping exclaimed, "Wolf King Ding Yi?"
Damn, this wolf king is actually called "Ding Yi". His parents must have been too hasty when they named him.
"So you still remember me. I thought you had forgotten me as an old friend." Xu Tian's tone was slightly sarcastic, and the person on the other end of the phone could naturally hear it.
"Wolf... Lord Wolf King..." Guo Sanping was confused, "Why are you back? You should be dead... No... I didn't mean that, I..."
"So you're expecting me to die." Xu Tian chuckled, but the rising sound carried a strong sense of oppression.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. How could I expect you to die? I have been waiting for you to come back. You are my boss..." Guo Sanping's voice trembled.
"I don't dare to be Bole. After all, your wings are strong now, Guo Sanping. You can cooperate with whomever you want..."
"Sir, I was wrong! I know I was wrong!" The person on the other end of the phone was almost crying with fright. "I was obsessed with it before, but now I will send the batch of porcelain that just came out of the kiln to your men!"
Xu Tian didn't waste any more words when he heard this, hung up the phone directly and handed it back to Zhong Ling.
The surprise in Zhong Ling's eyes was even more obvious. When talking to Guo Sanping on the phone, this man really had the demeanor of a first brother.
"If Brother Yi takes action himself, there is nothing that can't be solved." Zhong Yu came to Xu Tian with a smile and sat directly on the armrest of the boss's chair. "Old man Guo has really been too arrogant in the past few years. With the help of other forces behind him,
Support him and don’t take our Canglang Palace seriously, now it’s time to teach him a lesson.”
