Chapter 004
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder on the ground.
"This is impossible." Huang Mingda denied it flatly, "This Luo Shen Fu Tu has been hidden in the Huang family, and no outsider has ever known about it. As of today, apart from everyone here, you are the only outsider who knows about it."
"Not necessarily." I shook my head, "The possibility of ordinary people knowing it is naturally very small, but what if it is someone from above?"
Huang Mingda fell to the ground and breathed out, "What do you mean?"
"Huang Lao, please don't forget that after this anonymous letter, an extremely dangerous move occurred, which was the on-site treasure appraisal meeting that forced Wumai to a dead end. Although it was due to the time difference that Wumai was unable to get off, but
Since the opponent has designed this move, it means that he has considered this link in advance and is confident that he will definitely be able to succeed in this conference."
After listening to what I said, Huang Mingda was silent for a long time.
"Xiao Lin, what you said must be well-founded. It's unseemly to say it for no reason." Perhaps Mr. Yao felt that the situation was embarrassing, so he opened his mouth to explain.
"Of course I have no basis. I really don't dare to speak nonsense without any basis. Please forgive me, seniors."
Ah Yao smiled and said: "Today is a family dinner. Besides, you said it was just a guess. Even if it is unfounded, it is logically defensible. No one can blame you."
A Yao will naturally jump out to support me. I have already thought about this in my heart. As soon as she says this, Liu Bin will naturally relax, and the situation will naturally turn to my side.
Huang Mingda is a smart man. It is impossible that he has not considered what I said, but he has his own worries in his heart, or he does not dare to think about it, lest things get worse and no one can deal with it.
And I concluded that Liu Bin's inner considerations were exactly the opposite of Huang Mingda's. What he wanted was for Huang Mingda to abandon this illusion, not to take any chances, and instead to defend frontally and combine the power of the five meridians to defend against the enemy.
"Yes, Mr. Huang, I think what Lin Kun said is on point. What a coincidence that this time difference is, but it is this appraisal meeting that is holding our necks. If this appraisal meeting can be postponed or canceled, then this
The storm will naturally subside."
"Hey, you are talking lightly. This appraisal meeting is not organized by Wumai. How can we just cancel it?" Huang Mingda looked a little angry, "The most hateful thing is that the anonymous letter hid the beginning and the end, and didn't say anything at all.
I understand. Now that the wind has blown out about this appraisal meeting, several big leaders are very interested and have given instructions that they must be done well. Once the anonymous letter arrives, it will be difficult to get off the horse."
"Yes, it is definitely not possible to cancel the appraisal meeting. It will have a negative impact on the international community." Liu Zheng said, "This is not something Wumai can control. If the Luo Shen Fu map returned by Kawashima is fake, it will be even more damaging.
Reputation, so the higher-ups have issued an order, no matter what, it must be clarified before the appraisal meeting."
Mr. Yao asked: "When will the appraisal meeting be scheduled?"
Liu Zheng stretched out a finger: "One month later."
"One month is really tight."
"yes."
Liu Bin said to me: "Lin Kun, I'm looking for you. Firstly, I hope you can help find out about this matter. Secondly, because this matter is not only our Five Meridians matter, but also a deeply involved one."
Our Five Meridians are already at the forefront of the case, and many things are inconvenient."
I immediately understood what he meant.
"The five meridians are in a whirlpool, so I should do my best to help. Since it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the Luo Shen Fu painting, there must be some twists and turns hidden in it. So for us, distinguishing the authenticity of the Luo Shen Fu painting is of paramount importance.
thing."
"That's easy to say!"
Chairman Mao once said that there is no love without reason in this world, and there is no hatred without reason.
"Don't rush to express your position yet." Huang Mingda stopped and interrupted, "It's just a Luo Shen Fu Tu, what's the difficulty? We, the people from the Huangzi Sect, can do it well, so why bother relying on outsiders?"
"Appreciating calligraphy and painting is Hongmen's specialty. Does Mr. Huang want to overstep his authority?" Ah Yao asked with a serious look on his face.
"That's not what I meant, I just don't think it's necessary to make a fuss."
Faced with the question, Liu Zheng tapped the table with two fingers and said lightly: "This matter is not trivial."
As soon as he said this, more than a dozen blazing eyes criss-crossed the courtyard, each of them showing a different expression.
Huang Mingda didn't expect him to say that. He frowned and turned around and said: "After all, he is not a member of the Five Meridians. This matter concerns the Five Meridians. What's the reason for you to ask an outsider to intervene?"
It was much lower, and it seemed that Liu Zheng had taken advantage of his weakness.
"Old Huang, this matter is too sensitive. If the five meridians move, other people in the Tibetan ancient world will also get wind of it. By then, Luo Shen Fu Tu has not returned, and there will be a commotion in his own yard, but the higher-ups will be passive.
Xiao Lin and Fang Fang are already engaged, so strictly speaking they are not considered outsiders. He usually does not mix with the mainstream of the ancient world, so it is most appropriate for him to come forward."
Having said this, he lifted up Huang Mingda's wine glass, filled it up again, and handed it over respectfully: "After all, our five meridians are connected by the same energy. Broken bones are connected with tendons. This is what most people think. You
Don’t have any more objections.”
Huang Mingda hesitated for a moment: "The honor and disgrace of my Huangmen is a small matter, but the Five Meridians are a big matter. Since you have already made up your mind, it will be useless for me to say anything. I, Huang Mingda, am not an unreasonable person. The elders have good intentions.
, I wrote it down, Yifei."
"grandfather."
Then Huang Mingda whispered something to his granddaughter.
After listening to the instructions, Huang Yifei walked up to me and started to unbutton her clothes with both hands. I was startled, thinking that the Huang family was going to provide me with a bed companion, so I couldn't help but take two steps back. Huang Yifei looked at me contemptuously, with both hands
He took out a pendant from his open lapel, took it off his neck and handed it to me. It turned out that the pendant was hidden in his clothes, and he unbuttoned the first button to make it easier to take it out. I almost got it wrong.
The thing she handed me was a small jade ring with a red string on it. This jade ring had a warm surface and smooth texture. It looked like an ancient object in shape. I held it in my hand and could feel a faint warmth.
, no need to ask, it must be the warmth of a girl’s body.
If it were just a jade ring, it wouldn't be a rare thing. But this one is actually inlaid with gold patterns, in the style of cattail leaf patterns. Ancient gold inlaid with jade was quite luxurious. When I took it in my hand and weighed it, I knew it was not a common thing.
"Boy, don't worry about it. This is my granddaughter's personal belongings."
I heard that Huang Mingda was tricked by Liu Bin and Liu Zheng today. Now he is still unwilling to give in and wants to test me. There must be a unique reason why this thing can be hung on Huang Yifei. If I
I couldn't see why, so I stupidly accepted it, maybe I fell into their trap.
I held the jade ring in my hand and rubbed it for a while without saying anything. But A Yao beside me got angry for no reason and kept staring at Huang Yifei, wishing to tear her apart. I thought it must be the jealousy of this little girl.
I knocked it over again. After all, this thing was worn by this girl. As soon as I took it out, I couldn’t stop touching it. Thinking about it, it was indeed too indecent. No wonder she thought too much about it.
I secretly picked at the green color on the jade ring with my nails. The green color was very dark and fake.
They are all made of chemical potions and are very light. If you touch them more, they will be stained. I have been touching them for a long time, and the jade and green color have already merged into one! In fact, I am unnecessary. The authenticity of this jade ring does not need to be
It must be authentic. There are all experts here. If Huang Mingda comes out with a fake one, it will be a slap in the face.
"Don't touch it. You are a descendant of Yuling, and you sell antiques in Longgu Hall. In the future, you will still be a descendant of the Liu family of the Five Meridians Hongmen. When you see the cattail pattern, you can't tell whether it is good or bad?" Huang Mingda sneered.
I quickly lowered my head and looked again, and I was a little confused when I saw the gold-embedded cattail pattern on the jade ring. The so-called "cattail pattern" is a straw mat pattern made of cattail grass, with diagonal lines interlaced, shaped like a hexagonal raised grasshopper cage.
Typical ornamentation of the Han Dynasty, but what does this sentence mean?
Huang Yifei said disdainfully: "Pu patterns are used a lot on jade, you don't know that, right?"
Huang Yifei's words were naturally meant to ridicule me. Gold inlaid with jade is not uncommon, but the one on this jade ring is a gold-inlaid cattail pattern. If it is common, it definitely does not count. Her words are nothing more than trying to put the jade ring down and raise herself up.
"Hmph, playing with antiques is not only about value, but also about uniqueness. This jade ring is not expensive, but it has unique cattail pattern decoration and unique personality. In the eyes of the Fang family, it is something with a story. I am interested in it.
I know only a little bit about ornamentation, but I really can’t let this timid thing pass me by.” I thought to myself, “It’s okay if Huang Mingda tests me on purpose, but you, a little girl, want to show off your power to me, there’s no way you can do it.”
Huang Mingda does have some tricks. A small jade ring puts me in a dilemma. I know that Qingmen and Xuanmen were merciless when they took the test just now. If they were serious, how could I pass so easily? When I thought about it,
Here, I was sweating profusely, realizing how unfathomable the strength of the five meridians was, and I was really looking at the sky from a well.
"You can't say that. I really know a little bit about it."
"Oh?" Huang Yifei noticed my gaze and turned her face provocatively.
The two looked at each other, and I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a look of reluctance in her eyes.
"This thing is probably very important to her, right? It must be a little uneasy to be given away by her grandfather so casually." Thinking of this, I said, "Since this thing is worn personally by Miss Huang, I guess it must be made by Miss Huang."
It’s a token of love. Generally, tokens are private. Since Mr. Huang also knows it, I would venture to guess that Miss Huang’s lover must be someone from the Five Meridians!"
"You!" Huang Yifei was shocked, her face turned red, "You - you - who told you to say this!"
I was about to say something, but Huang Yifei had already turned away and walked away.
When Mr. Yao saw that Huang Mingda and I were not dealing with each other, and that Huang Yifei had left, he immediately said, "Oh, this little girl has a very wild temper. I'll go take a look."
Liu Zheng looked at the others. Mr. Shen of the Qingmen shook his head: "Xuan porcelain Huang Ming, these two doors are next to the Buddha's head. Our Qingzi door is made of wood, so we won't mix with it."
"Please walk slowly."
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "In that case, the matter is settled. Xiaolin, I will have someone send you relevant information tomorrow."
"Lao Huang gave you something, and I will give you something else," Liu Zheng said.
I was just about to be polite, but something was already delivered to me. I thought he must be sending a small porcelain vase, or a set of dishes - maybe he was generous and just sent a piece of Ru kiln - but it turned out... When I took it over and looked at it, I was shocked. I thought he wanted to give me something, but I didn't expect it was just a piece of writing that said: "It is easy to learn from ancient times, but it is difficult to learn from people."
