Chapter fifty-three, what a big mistake

You must be sober when traveling in the world. Don't think that you can mess with anyone just because you know a few tricks. Liu Li once commented on You Fang. With the two brushes he has now, he doesn't even have the capital to blackmail the former sect in private. Zhou Xiao

The person Xian mentioned was someone you couldn't afford to mess with, and it was impossible for him to be the person he was looking for. This time, he went south to secretly find the forces behind the scenes that dealt with the mad fox by participating in a recruitment event, which created a big mess.

dragon.

This person’s name is Niu Ranmiao, who is from Macau. He is 90 years old this year. He is a patriotic industrialist, social activist, philanthropist, and financier. He is even a household name in Southeast Asia. When he was a teenager, his father died due to careless investment.

After going bankrupt, he started from scratch and entered the gaming industry. After decades of hard work, he not only created a huge business empire, but his life can also be called the legend of a king in modern society.

To measure a person's wealth and corresponding status, most of the time you can't just look at a person's nominal property. Various rich rankings are also mostly based on nonsense. The market value of Mr. Niu's personal property is tens of billions.

Although he is a rich man, the family he controls directly and indirectly controls industries worth hundreds of billions, involving hundreds of thousands of employed people and their families, and his industries extend to important fields such as finance, real estate, and public transportation, affecting

It's indescribable.

Niu Ranmiao has many children and nephews, whether in business or politics, there are many people in important positions. However, the old man is already old and holds the title of chairman of the group's board of directors to control the public. At the same time, he holds a false title in the Chamber of Commerce and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and has a high status in the world.

Needless to say, he has made generous donations to China's cultural and educational undertakings. He also holds the status of "China's National Treasure Project Consultant" and has spent a lot of money many times to buy back precious national treasures that have been scattered overseas and donate them to the country.

In the Palace Museum, there are more than one precious cultural relic donated by Mr. Niu, most of which were recovered from overseas. People like Zhou Xiaoxian, the ghost hand, cannot be hired just by spending money, and Mr. Niu Ranmiao can naturally bring them to life.

He invited him here. With Mr. Niu's status, he couldn't possibly be the person you wanted to find, and he couldn't even get close to him.

When You Fang heard Zhou Xiaoxian say the name "Niu Ranmiao", he was stunned for five seconds. However, he quickly thought and made a decision, smashing the vase. This smash was very particular, Jianghu people

Not only do you need to have various means of installing the threshold, but you also need to be able to remove the threshold and go down the steps, and dismantle your own shed yourself.

Niu Ranmiao has had a high status in recent decades, but don't forget that he started his business by opening a casino in the troubled times of the last century. He is a man of great influence in the world of black and white. What kind of con man has he not seen? And You Fang

Today's behavior seems to be cheating in the eyes of others, because he knows that the items are fakes but still sends them here. This does not need to be said clearly, the great expert Zhou Xiaoxian has already seen it.

With Zhou Xiaoxian in charge here, You Fang certainly did not "succeed", but if there were no national players like Zhou Xiaoxian, would You Fang intend to defraud Mr. Niu of a huge sum of money? No matter what his original plan was, what happened

This is how it is in the eyes of others. The deception failed and he walked away in despair with the bottle. Even if Mr. Niu himself didn't mind, what would the other Niu family think when they heard about it? This move is tantamount to offending the Niu family.

The opportunity to deal with Jianghu is definitely not a good thing for you.

If you are a member of the Niu family, and the old man offers a large reward for Yuan Qinghua, and someone knows that what he has is a fake, he still sends it to his door to defraud you. Even if you were generous and didn't pursue it at the time, if something happens to you in the future, you will

Is he polite?

The influence of the Niu family is so great, and there are so many people related to it in all aspects. You Fang can't guarantee that something will happen to him in the future. If he doesn't know, that's it. If he knows, it's like being in front of the king of gambling.

Isn't it just seeking death for being a cheat? Who can prove that he didn't know it beforehand? Don't forget that he came under the pseudonym "Melander" whose identity cannot be traced, and Zhou Xiaoxian had already told him the truth on the spot.

Already.

This hit was equivalent to expressing my attitude, which was better than any explanation: I had no intention of defrauding Mr. Niu Ranmiao, and I didn’t keep anything, which showed my respect and reverence for Mr. Niu. I gave him all my face.

That's enough. If you meet someone from the Niu family and mention this again in the future, the scene will definitely be okay.

Luo Dike was startled, but Zhou Xiaoxian was only slightly surprised. He looked at You Fang with a look of admiration and curiosity, but the expression on his face was clearly a forced smile, as if to say: "Why do you bother to ask?"

After throwing the bottle, You Fang clasped his fists: "Today was a misunderstanding. I'm sorry for disturbing Teacher Zhou's work. I'll say goodbye now!"

After making such a big noise, the door of the studio was immediately pushed open, and several strong people from outside flashed in. Seeing this scene, they were surprised and asked: "Mr. Zhou, what happened?"

Zhou Xiaoxian waved his hand: "It's okay, we are just doing a destructive experiment, you go out." Then he pointed to the debris on the ground and said: "Mr. Rand, you are young but you are not simple!"

Before he could finish speaking, You Fang immediately said: "I'm sorry for making such a mess on the ground and having to bother people to clean it up. I should go." Then he turned around and left with the security guards, deliberately walking very carefully.

In a hurry, Zhou Xiaoxian only had time to say to his leaving back: "Thank you!"

Luo Dike was confused and asked in confusion: "He just left like that? Teacher, why did you say thank you?"

Zhou Xiaoxian was still smiling bitterly. He bent down and picked up a piece of broken porcelain from the ground, which was the thickest part of the porcelain embryo of the vase. He said to the student: "He didn't want to offend the Niu family, and at the same time he also gave me a step to step down, so

I want to thank him... Look at this stubble, no matter how clever it is to make the surface of the object old, the thicker interior of the porcelain embryo, the Yuan blue and white from hundreds of years ago, is still different from the recently released fakes, even if they are the same

The porcelain clay was fired with the same process, especially when it was first broken, it was most obvious... He took the initiative to break the vase, which confirmed my identification just now, it is indeed a fake."

Only then did Luo Tike realize that Zhou Xiaoxian could find no fault with the surface features of the plum vase. The last way to prove that it was a fake was to break the thickest part of the vase and look at the broken parts of the porcelain embryo. If

If he did this in his capacity, it would be a big joke if word spread. This was an occasion to solicit genuine items with huge sums of money, and it was not a gimmick that Wang Gang did on Beijing TV's treasure appraisal program.

Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, he was unable to find any faults on the surface, so he had to break the vase to verify it. Where is the face of the industry’s expert appraisal authority? Some people will inevitably laugh at him. No matter whether it is true or false, you will only know after breaking it, then what?

What is an appraisal called? And Zhou Xiaoxian said it was a fake, and You Fang took the initiative to break the vase. When others looked at it: "Oh, it is indeed a fake, Teacher Zhou is so amazing!" The meaning of this situation is completely different.

Already.

Regarding this appraisal, a joke later circulated in the circle: During the famous collection event in Guangzhou, a mysterious young man came to the scene with a Yuanqinghua that was difficult to tell whether it was authentic or not. No one among the experts could be sure.

Only teacher Zhou Xiaoxian stretched out his ghostly hand and touched it, then smiled and concluded that it was a fake. The visitors were so impressed that they smashed the vase on the spot. When everyone saw it, it was indeed a fake!

The content of this joke is true and false, but it has been widely circulated. It is unknown who compiled it. The initiator is most likely Zhou Xiaoxian's protégé Luo Dike, or it may be You Fang himself. Although Zhou Xiaoxian has never admitted it

, but after hearing this legend, I must have felt quite comfortable and felt a little grateful to that "Mr. Rand".

In the eyes of Jianghu people, many well-known people, especially big intellectuals, pay more attention to professional ethics and are not easily impressed by their profits. However, such people often cherish their reputation too much, which turns it into an exploitable flaw. The ghost-hand Zhou Xiaoxian also

He is not completely exempt from the vulgarity. It is too rare for someone like Wu Pingtung to sacrifice his life in obscurity without caring about being unknown. You Fang's act of smashing the bottle not only removed a threshold, but also gave Senior Guishou a lot of face.

.

Without further ado, Luo Dike came back to his senses after hearing the teacher's explanation, and couldn't help but nod his head. However, after thinking about it for a while, he doubted: "Even if he doesn't want to offend the Niu family, he can still give the teacher some face by breaking the vase.

But there is no need to break it so much and not even take away the pieces."

Zhou Xiaoxian also frowned and said thoughtfully: "I think he seemed to have other ideas and walked in such a hurry on purpose. I didn't react, otherwise he would have taken the pieces away... This plum vase,

I'm afraid no one can restore it to its original condition except me, but everyone knows that I never repair fakes... I think it is impossible to find genuine products in this collection, and Mr. Niu will inevitably be disappointed. Now something like this has happened

, if you tell an interesting anecdote to the elderly, he will definitely find it very interesting, and this activity will not be too boring."

…

You Fang checked the wrong clues and almost made a big mistake. It was said that this trip was in vain, and there was no need to continue pretending as planned. However, after he returned to Liuhua Hotel by car, he did not leave and still stayed.

Here, I rarely go out and have no contact with anyone. In addition to doing exercises every day to recuperate my body and mind, I spend most of my time surfing the Internet on the computer provided in the suite.

Only before going to bed, he would go for a walk in the nearby Liuhua Lake Park and practice the internal nourishment technique by stepping across the walking piles, moving the spirit energy to guide the movement of the inner energy. When the martial arts reached his level, he did not have to open up when practicing.

The shelf looks like a walk, and there is nothing unusual about it. Many people in this city sleep very late, and there are many wandering orioles in the park who set up scams in the name of selling sex. Of course, the tourists are too lazy to pay attention to it, and they can't pay attention to it.

.

Even if you don't leave Guangzhou, business suites in four-star hotels are quite expensive, so you should find another place. You Fang seems to be doing nothing, but in fact he has been waiting - waiting for someone to come to his door.

He smashed the plum vase on the spot, dismantled two thresholds and installed one at the same time, because he left the fragments behind. He could just leave them somewhere else, but it happened to be in the studio of Zhou Xiaoxian, the ghost hand.

It may be repaired on the spot. In a collection activity like this, you either leave something behind and give money, or leave without leaving anything. Now that the people have left, the fragments have been left behind. The person invited by the organizer is the famous Zhou Xiaoxian

, what’s going on if it’s spread out?

Although the plum vase is a fake, it is not without value. It is also valuable in itself. It may even be passed off as the real thing in the hands of some people. Everything left over from the collection activity, even if it is just a crisp, is not something Zhou Xiaoxian can keep privately.

Disposal. As for the organizer of the collection, of course it is impossible to covet these fragments. They will either destroy and throw them away, or contact him - it is actually very convenient to find him, just make a phone call.

Since he couldn't afford to offend the Niu family, why did You Fang wait for someone to come to his door? In fact, it was because of Wu Pingtong. He tried his best to find an opportunity to convey Mr. Wu's last words to Mr. Niu Ranmiao.

It’s really hard for Yu Fang. In just five seconds, he came up with so many tricks.

Things in the world are such coincidences. Because of Mr. Wu's last wish, the traveler traced the site of the Yuan Qinghua collection event, only to find that they had mistaken the wrong person. However, Mr. Niu Ranmiao, the person collecting the work, was not seen even by Wu Pingdong after several attempts.

Wu Pingtung went to Hong Kong for a short business trip last year and made a special detour to Macau to visit Niu Ranmiao. However, he was unable to meet because Mr. Niu was unwell.

With Niu Ranmiao's status, Wu Pingdong couldn't just see him if he wanted to.

Why did Wu Pingtong want to meet Niu Ranmiao? Of course it has something to do with the generosity of this respected Chinese tycoon. Niu Ranmiao made many attempts to buy back precious cultural relics that had been scattered overseas for a large amount of money and then donated them to the country, which won a lot of praise and also caused a stir at home and abroad.

The collecting community has paid great attention to this kind of behavior, and it has become the focus of news for a while.

Taking matters into consideration, the donation of a large amount of money to recover the national treasure should win praise. However, Niu Ramiao's behavior objectively contributed to the crazy hype of China's overseas cultural relics in the international market, and the old man's influence was too great.

Wu Pingtong once said in class: "This hype actually brought about a huge revaluation of Chinese cultural relics collected in the West. After being put on the market, it was no less than a second plunder. It was intentional or unintentional."

It triggered rampant tomb robbing and smuggling of cultural relics within the country." At that time, a student asked Niu Ranmiao's behavior as an example. Wu Pingtong did not make much comment, but he had the idea of ​​​​finding an opportunity to visit Niu Ranmiao.

Later, Wu Pingtong met You Fang, and after listening to You Fang's detailed explanation of the "ball rolling in the plate" technique of Jianghu art, and experiencing the jade seal auction chain, he wanted to see Niu Ranmiao and have a good talk. You Fang once persuaded him

Mr. Wu: "Niu Ranmiao is an old man who has been in the world for many years. How can he not see through all the tricks of the world? He obviously has other considerations in doing this. According to the world, it is also called 'voting a name certificate', but this behavior itself should only be

As an industrialist leader who has returned to the motherland, he expresses his national stance and patriotism."

Elder Wu did not listen to the advice and shook his head: "Even if what you said makes sense, I think that with the old man's status and influence, there are more and better ways of expression. It is not necessary to behave in this way. From the perspective of protection and

Looking at the overall situation of recovering cultural relics, the gains outweigh the losses. I must have a good talk with him when I have the chance." When I went to Hong Kong on a business trip last year, I made a special detour to Macau, but I didn't see him. After returning, Wu Pingtung felt very regretful.

Wu Pingtong also planned to tell someone what he wanted to say to Niu Ranmiao, but doing so seemed impolite and formal, and the person telling him might not tell the truth - who would find someone like Niu Ranmiao and say something unpleasant to his face?

Even unpleasant letters may not reach the ninety-year-old Niu Ranmiao himself. But now that Mr. Wu is no longer alive, what he wanted to say has become his last words.

As a tourist, it is naturally impossible for him to meet Niu Ranmiao just because he wants to. His plan is very simple. Since the person collecting the reward for this event is Mr. Niu Ranmiao, the organizer must report the event to the old man. If anyone

When he found himself and asked why he did that, he explained that he wanted to tell Mr. Niu Ranmiao something.

As for whether the organizer will tell Mr. Niu Ranmiao himself, that is another matter. The organizer can only do his best, which can be regarded as doing his best for Mr. Wu from his own point of view. But he must first do something special, which may cause Mr. Niu

It’s all about Mr.’s attention or interest, and his behavior at the collection site should be special enough.

What if no one contacts him and no one cares about him at all? No matter what he does, Jianghu Shuan's threshold will not always be successful, even if all his efforts are in vain. Since he has reserved a suite at Liuhua Hotel for a week, one day has passed.
To be continued...
