Meng Zitao felt that the behavior of these two people was superfluous, but after thinking about it again, they were probably worried that their fingerprints would be left on the copper coins. At that time, because of the short time during the theft, they were worried that something would go wrong, so they gave the coins directly to Taken away.
Now that we know who is the most suspicious, the next investigation will have a direction. Although the thieves have removed the surveillance here, there is no way to control the surveillance elsewhere.
So, the police went to call the surrounding surveillance cameras and found that the two men entered Pei's hometown to commit the theft at around one o'clock in the morning. That time period was controlled by time between Mr. Pei's sleep and his first waking up at night. very perfect.
However, these two people were very cautious and wore masks all the way in and out, so their true faces could not be seen clearly. Fortunately, surveillance is widely distributed now. The police called the surveillance along the road and found that they got into a taxi.
The taxi was later found. According to the taxi driver, he saw two passengers carrying backpacks and both wearing masks. Seeing their costumes, he was a little scared at the time. After seeing his expression, one of them said that they were not gangsters and would not rob him. He then let them get in the car, and then the two got off near a street in the east of the city.
Based on this, the police suspected that the suspect was likely to live near that street, possibly renting a house nearby or staying in a nearby hotel.
After further investigation, it was discovered that the surrounding area of ??the street was a living area with only a few hotels, so the police handling the case conducted a dragnet investigation on those hotels.
While Meng Zitao and others were having lunch, the police found the hotel where the two people were staying, but they left early in the morning and used fake ID cards. They did not know what their real names were. Fortunately, the hotel had surveillance cameras and captured their appearance.
Because of this accident, it was difficult for Meng Zitao to discuss business with Mr. Pei, so after lunch, they planned to go to the house of Zhuang Gongtai's friend who owned Yuan Qinghua.
Along the way, everyone discussed Mr. Pei¡¯s affairs, and it didn¡¯t take long before we arrived at our destination.
Zhuang Gongtai¡¯s friend¡¯s name was Luo Shihao, who lived in a beautiful villa community. Bao Qigu rang the doorbell. After a while, an energetic old man about fifty years old with a goatee came to open the door.
"Old Bao, why did you have time to come to my place today?" Luo Shihao asked with a smile.
Bao Qigu introduced: "This is Teacher Meng Zitao. He heard that you have a Fang Sheng Box with a picture of the Golden Baby from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. He wanted to take a look at it."
On the way here, Bao Qigu told Meng Zitao that it was best to find a more reliable reason before going, otherwise it would be difficult to contact him.
Meng Zitao was a little surprised, why Luo Shihao was so wary, as if he didn't trust strangers at all.
Bao Qigu explained that this was because Luo Shihao had suffered big losses from strangers before and lost a lot of money. He used to be too easy to trust others, but now he is too easy to doubt others. He has completely gone from one extreme to the other. .
And Luo Shihao is very precious to his favorite collections. To put it simply, he has a strong desire to possess these collections, including the Yuan blue and white piece. To prevent Luo Shihao from thinking too much, Bao Qigu reminded Meng Zitao not to mention it yet.
After listening to Bao Qigu¡¯s introduction, Luo Shihao frowned slightly, and then he realized who Meng Zitao was.
"It turns out it's Teacher Meng. I've admired him for a long time!" Luo Shihao stepped forward and shook hands with Meng Zitao with a smile on his face.
Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Teacher Luo, please don't mind if I take the liberty of visiting you!"
"It's too late to be happy. How could you mind? You're worrying too much." Luo Shihao laughed and then said, "Let's go in first and talk about it later."
"good¡¡"
The group of people followed Luo Shihao to the reception room. The whole room was full of literati atmosphere, with antique furniture, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, bronze and stone carvings, ancient jade seals, etc. The decoration was just right and the environment was very elegant.
After inviting everyone to take a seat, Luo Shihao personally brewed a pot of Pu'er tea for everyone: "This tea is a high-quality Pu'er tea that I just got. How about you try it?"
Meng Zitao picked up the tea cup and first looked at the tea, then lightly smelled the fragrance, and finally tasted the tea in three sips.
"Teacher Meng, how do you feel?" Luo Shihao asked.
Meng Zitao praised: "This tea has bright tea soup, pleasant tea aroma, mellow taste, smooth and sweet taste, and endless aftertaste. It is indeed a rare good tea! It is rare to see on the market."
Luo Shihao smiled and said: "This tea is actually produced from 120-year-old tea trees. No pesticides were used during the growth process, and there are no insects."??Filled in, the main body decoration is painted without filling. It is often seen that the color is worn out and missing. However, in the real lacquer-filled gold-finishing process, the colored patterns are filled into the lacquer ground, have a certain thickness, and are very smooth and durable. .
Luo Shihao smiled heartily: "As long as you like it."
Since Luo Shihao agreed to the transfer, Meng Zitao was not polite to discuss the price with him. Even if Jin Zongjie was not satisfied with this lacquered and gold-plated Fangsheng box, he would accept it himself.
In the end, Luo Shihao gave Meng Zitao a preferential price, and Meng Zitao transferred the money directly to him.
After completing the transaction, Meng Zitao continued to admire the collection in the room. Although most of the items here were genuine, there were not all fakes. Luo Shihao was not taboo about this, and generously said that if Meng Zitao recognized the fakes, please let him know. come out.
So far, Meng Zitao still has a good impression of Luo Shihao, so he is willing to help. He pointed out two problematic collections before, but the value was not very high. Luo Shihao was quite calm, but when Meng Zitao pointed out another collection When there is a problem, he cannot calm down.
"You said there is something wrong with this Wu Zhen's work?" Luo Shihao looked very surprised, as did everyone else.
Meng Zitao nodded and said, "Yes, based on my understanding of Wu Zhen, this painting must be a forgery."
The two of them were talking about a "Bamboo and Stone Picture" by Wu Zhen, a famous bamboo painter in the Yuan Dynasty. This painting was his work in his later years. It depicts a clump of wild bamboo diagonally across the stone, with sparse branches and strong knots, and new leaves, with a pleasant charm.
If this work is authentic, the price is very high. Although it is only 2.5 square feet, the price is at least 9 million. Now that Meng Zitao said there was something wrong with it, no wonder Luo Shihao was anxious.
Luo Shihao stared at the work for a while, but couldn't see the problem, so he asked Meng Zitao for advice.
Meng Zitao explained: "Li Jin, a painter of the Yuan Dynasty, believed that the most important thing in painting bamboo is to get the ecology of the bamboo from the branches and leaves. 'A stroke of brush has business, and one side is natural. The four sides are smooth, and the branches and leaves are moving, and then the bamboo becomes mature.'" , Wu Zhen is the same in this regard, but Wu Zhen pays more attention to the non-realism of painting bamboo and highlights the mental state of bamboo. "
"Wu Zhen's ink bamboo not only expresses himself, but also highlights the demeanor of the famous hermit of that era. Whether it is landscape painting or bamboo and stone painting, Wu Zhen has entrusted the Chinese literati paintings such as 'Yipin' to Bixing's freehand spirit." To the extreme, it established a standard for literati freehand painting for later generations of painters."
"The artistic conception of this painting is inferior to that of Wu Zhen's works I have seen. I did not experience Wu Zhen's unique emotional sustenance from it. Moreover, Wu Zhen's brushwork often does not pay attention to 'continuous business'." "The writing is quick and not slow', but this work does not match this aspect"
Meng Zitao paused, waiting for everyone to understand what he was talking about, and then said: "The biggest flaw in this work is the word 'sound' in the inscription. I don't know what happened to the author, but he actually wrote an extra stroke here. , if it is an authentic work, this is obviously impossible to happen.¡±
"Huh!" Luo Shihao was startled, then let out a long breath and sneered: "What a Tan Shirong, how dare you trick me!"
"Tan Shirong?" Meng Zitao and Meng Hongchang were both a little surprised, because the owner of Huang Gongwang's work was this Tan Shirong.
"You also know Tan Shirong?" Luo Shihao was a little curious.
So, Meng Hongchang briefly explained the whole story.
Both Luo Shihao and Bao Qigu looked a little unbelievable. Bao Qigu said: "No, we have never heard of it. He still has Huang Gongwang's works in his hands!"
Meng Hongchang said in surprise: "This shouldn't be fake. At that time, several experts and I also appraised the work together. Everyone agreed that the work was authentic. Even if it is wrong, it is unlikely that everything will be wrong. ah."
Luo Shihao shook his head: "I think there is something wrong. With his personality, if there is such a work, let alone shouting about it, we people should also have some rumors." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
