Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

"No need for the time being." Zhao Hai made a calculation in his mind.

Of course he knew the whereabouts of the other Xuande furnace, but he thought he had just made a mistake.

It is actually relatively rare for antiques to be brought to auction houses for appraisal. Auction houses are not appraisal centers. Generally, antiques that have been authenticated and come with certificates are placed directly there for auction.

If Lin Ran hadn't said hello in advance, they would have been reluctant to let go of an antique of this level.

Putting it in the absolute C position at the auction, they can also make a lot of money from it, and they will definitely find ways to keep it.

"Okay." Wu Ning showed a regretful expression, "You can store your things here first. You can rest assured that our security facilities are top-notch even in the capital."

"Haha, I'm relieved because of what you said, Manager Wu." Zhao Hai breathed a long sigh of relief, with a bit of a smile on his face.

After completing the storage procedures for him, Zhao Hai and others left the auction house.

Xuandelu's matter has been taken care of, and the next step is his own illness.

"Brother Lin, I'll just wait for the good news in the hotel."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao." Lin Ran smiled slightly, "Then I'll come back to you tomorrow."

"Okay." Zhao Hai and Xiao Du exchanged a look, got in the car and left.

Liu Jingfeng originally wanted to send him back but was rejected, so he just watched them leave from behind.

"Don't be sad, Brother Liu, don't you think there are brothers like us?" Lin Ran patted him on the back.

He couldn't guarantee other things, but he knew that Wang Jinpeng and Huang Hao were absolutely loyal to him, and Xu Ning didn't have much power.

In fact, this is Liu Jingfeng’s dream team.

There was a bit of a smile on Liu Jingfeng's face.

"Brother Lin, I'll leave it to you."

As long as Zhao Hai's illness can be cured, the grievances between them can be considered wiped out, and there will be no regrets in being separated from each other from now on.

Liu Jingfeng originally wanted to send Lin Ran home, but Lin Ran had other things to deal with at the auction house, so he asked him to go back by himself.

They made an appointment to meet in the hotel the next day, but Zhao Hai felt uneasy without Liu Jingfeng.

Bid farewell to Liu Jingfeng and returned to the auction house.

Wang Hai and Wu Ning were still sitting in the living room, knowing that Lin Ran would come back.

Wu Ning immediately came over and said, "Boss Lin, you are really amazing. You can even get the Xuande stove."

"This is not mine." Lin Ran sat down with a smile, put on his gloves, picked up the Xuande stove and started observing.

"Master Wang still has a sharp eye. It turns out that the Xuande stove is a set. I didn't even notice this detail." Lin Ran said.

After all, it was just a cursory look at the product. After discovering that it was genuine, Lin Ran was so excited that he had no time for detailed identification.

He observed Zhao Hai's expression just now. It seems that Zhao Hai should know the whereabouts of the other Xuande Lu.

"Yeah, this gap doesn't look normal." Wang Hai said, "But the more I look at this thing, the more I like it."

"Well, it would be perfect if we could find a symmetrical Xuande furnace."

After Lin Ran confirmed that Zhao Hai had another Xuande stove in his hand, he also had other plans.

This is what happened to the antiques buried underground, and the local masters only took them out by their own means. Their purpose was to make money.

There are very few local masters who regard collecting as a lifelong goal, such as Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning. They are not interested in antiques at all. In their eyes, precious antiques are nothing more than money.

After a short exchange with Zhao Hai, Lin Ran had roughly guessed his true purpose.

Now it's time to take advantage of the situation and take down the Xuande stove in your hand first, and then think about the next thing.

Wu Ning also knew Lin Ran's plan, he just looked at the Xuande stove in his hand with some reluctance.

After learning that it was genuine, as the manager of the auction house, he sincerely wanted to keep it.

Until Wang Hai led people to take the things away, he was still watching silently from behind.

Wu Ning is not a collector, he is just an antique dealer.

Lin Ran patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, this thing is actually not suitable for us to auction."

"Why?" Wu Ning asked.

"This is a national cultural relic, and we can't declare it at all." As a regular auction house, every time they conduct an auction, they need to pass the above review.

Antiques of the Xuande Furnace level have exceeded the category of antiques and have become national cultural relics.

Unless Zhao Hai can prove that this is a family heirloom.

In fact, no matter what kind of fraud experts Zhao Hai could find, the proof would be impossible.

The Ministry of Chinese Culture and Literature exists for this purpose. If there were records of Xuande furnaces among the people, they would have gone there and bought them back at a high price.

However, he did not tell Zhao Hai this. The less he knew about the truth, the easier his life would be.

Wu Ning also sighed.

Unlike past auction items, the Xuande furnace is not only well-made, but also unparalleled in other aspects.

"I have even seen the Xuande Furnace's final appearance at the auction." Wu Ning closed his eyes, and he could already imagine what a grand occasion it would be like when the Xuande Furnace appeared at the auction.

The fame of their Zulong Auction House will spread all over the country like the announcement of Lu, and similarly, they can also make huge profits.

What Lin Ran said is not entirely correct. As an auction house, they actually have some room for maneuver. After all, this is not an era of information circulation. They can just change it to another name, such as the Ming Dynasty palace bronzes, and they can use it. Approved.

You can use the method of selling dog meat with a sheep's head to free up the position of another treasure, so that the Xuande furnace can gain the status of auction.

Lin Ran had no intention of selling the Xuande furnace. He originally planned to use it as collateral.

"Don't think about it. This is Emperor Xuanwu's treasure. No matter how much money you spend, you will definitely lose money if you sell it now."

"By the way, you must never let anyone else know that Xuanderu is in our auction house." Lin Ran warned before leaving the auction.

He could trust Wu Ning and Wang Hai, as could Liu Jiajia, but for the others, he felt that they would never let them know about this matter.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that it is a crime to cherish a treasure. Anyone who knows the value of the Xuande furnace knows that once someone knows that there is one in the Zulong Auction House, they will most likely take it for themselves in an extremely dangerous way. have.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will hide all the information."

"Yes." Lin Ran said with a smile. Since Wu Ning had promised, there were no other problems.

The top priority is to cure Zhao Hai's illness and avoid other troubles.
