Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up
Vol 2 Chapter 1947: Hollow out the bottom three
In the 1920s, Wu Laixi, a Chinese-born antique dealer in Britain, brought a pair of rare blue-and-white cloud dragon elephant ear bottles to Liulichang. This pair of porcelain vases was originally enshrined in Zhihua Temple in Kyoto. One of the necks has a sixty-two-character inscription: "Jingtang Society, Dejiaoli, Yushan County, Xinzhou Road, dedicated a disciple Zhang Wenjin, a pair of incense burner vases, praying To protect the safety of Qingji's children in the family. On the good day in April of the 11th year, please remember that Marshal Hu Jingyi of the Xingyuan Ancestral Hall made a confession."
It is a pity that this pair of precious cultural relics was rejected by almost all masters at that time as counterfeit porcelain. The absence of blue and white porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty seemed to be the consensus of the Chinese antique industry at that time; Finally, this pair of ear bottles was collected by Sir David, a British collector of ancient Chinese ceramics.
The Yunlong elephant ear bottle appeared in London, which first attracted the attention and recognition of Hobson, a scholar of Chinese ancient ceramics in the British Museum; he published the article "Blue and White Porcelain Before Ming Dynasty" in 1929; A blue and white elephant ear bottle with cloud and dragon patterns. But Hobson's discovery did not cause much repercussions!
In 1952, Dr. Pope, a scholar of Chinese ancient ceramics at the Freer Museum of Art in the United States, published "14th Century Blue and White Porcelain: A Group of Chinese Porcelain Collected in the Tobkapu Palace in Istanbul", and in 1956 published "Adbeer Temple Collection Chinese Porcelain. And using the pair of vases collected by David David as the standard, compared with dozens of Chinese porcelains of similar style collected in the museums of Turkey and Iran, all the blue and white porcelains with the style of elephant ear vases were designated as blue and white porcelains of the 14th century. Since then, Yuan blue and white has been valued and recognized by ancient Chinese ceramics scholars all over the world. Chinese academic circles named this type of blue-and-white porcelain the "Zhizheng Type" Yuan Blue-and-White Porcelain; this pair of bottles is also known as the David Vase, and has become a recognized "Zhizheng Type" Yuan Blue-and-White Dating Standard.
The national treasure is not recognized at the door of the house, but has to be identified by foreigners; it is indeed ironic! But these have nothing to do with Bao Zixuan, as long as they can be taken back; even if they pay a small price, it doesn't matter, let alone care about other things!
Soon Peng Yifei came to London, the matter was very important; he must send his confidants there. In fact, in Bao Zixuan's heart, he didn't want Peng Yifei's exposure to be too high; but now there is no other way, only to continue to hope that the follow-up can catch up in time!
At this time, the Iron Lady was still dealing with the aftermath in Scotland, and thousands of people were killed or injured; and they were all civilians. Even during the war, it is a major event; plus there are many Scottish soldiers on the front line, if they really know that their family members were shot and killed by their own soldiers; the possibility of internal conflicts is very high.
Fortunately, Baozixuan is a real business, and the most important thing is that people have money; the first fund of 1 billion pounds was remitted to the designated account two days after the call. The ability to mobilize funds is even stronger than the Ministry of Finance of the British Empire; perhaps it is necessary to re-examine the status and strength of this junior!
Boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings were shipped out from major museums in the UK. There was such a big commotion; it was impossible that there would be no news. Even if the citizens of London don't know what's going on, intelligence personnel from various countries can still find clues.
The bloodshed caused by the Scottish riots led countries to increase intelligence exports to the UK. It has been in the world for hundreds of years, but it is all based on infringing on the interests of other countries; there are indeed many enemies!
Even the US media, a traditional ally, has reported on the incident, and the authenticity of the incident is unquestionable. In addition, the United Kingdom has stepped up the blockade of the Scottish region, which always gives people the feeling that there is no silver three hundred taels here! There is negative news about the British Empire, which is great news for many countries, so the opportunity cannot be missed!
Now seeing the continuous outflow of cultural relics from major museums in the UK, I instantly understand what it means; we must know that the era of great navigation has begun, and the British have searched for many cultural relics from various countries with the help of strong ships and cannons. Some are of great historical value, and bringing them back to China can even fill some academic gaps!
Although it is not clear how much benefit Bao Zixuan promised to the British, it actually let the British Empire open all the museums; but it is nothing more than money. The British, who have never suffered a loss, will not give away the cultural relics they have obtained; even if the other party is the richest man in the world.
Even if Britain is in decline, a dead camel is bigger than a horse; now that the British are short of money, I believe that as long as the funds are in place, they should not refuse purchase requests from other countries!
Watching the Heiyun Group transporting cultural relics out of the museum by car, it would be a lie not to be moved.
Bao Zixuan can do it, they have no reason to do it! Therefore, many countries, mainly countries that were once colonized by the British, began to actively contact the British, expressing their willingness to spend money to buy their own cultural relics!
Things were already brewing; embarrassment was inevitable; and Iron Maiden knew it all too well. With the recent series of events, re-election is almost impossible. That being the case, there is no need to worry so much; as long as it is beneficial to the British Empire, it doesn't matter if it bears some infamy!
In his position, seek his own government; as the prime minister at this time, he is not responsible for the blame, so why should the royal family come forward. If that were the case, the British Empire would be completely divided. At that time, she will be a national sinner, even if she is very close to the national sinner at this moment; but there is still room for redemption.
For countries that actively want to buy cultural relics, it can be said that they will not refuse; unlike Baozixuan, many things have to rely on the other party. The attack was not so ruthless, and the asking price was relatively reasonable; other countries took the initiative to come to the door, and they had to be brutally slaughtered.
Besides, because of the huge amount of funds provided by the Black Cloud Group, the funds are not so tight in a short period of time.
Even if we know that it is unsustainable, there are indeed a lot of cultural relics looted by our ancestors; but they are limited after all. The empire's own hematopoietic ability is very important, of course, this is also the reason why the price of Bao Zixuan is not too high.
As the richest man in the world and the head of the largest industrial group; Iron Lady hopes that the Black Cloud Group will invest in more projects in the UK. The departure of the Rothschild family is inevitable, especially the outbreak of the Scottish incident; the determination of the family to leave has been strengthened. So how to fill the vacancy is imminent!
Obviously, Baozixuan is very suitable, even though the other party owns Fujairah; but the site is too small, and because of the geographical location, it is impossible to absorb too much money.
Iran alone is enough to cause headaches; as long as Baozixuan is not stupid, it is impossible to put all eggs in one basket. As for Xiangjiang, the construction of Heiyun Town is basically finalized; it is impossible to make any big moves.
It is not impossible for the black cloud funds to flow into the British Empire; it depends on whether the other party is satisfied with the chips!
At the same time, many people started calling Bao Zixuan to inquire about the situation. The second son of Iraq came to Egypt again in less than half a month.
It's so frequent that it's hard not to be discovered; in any case, he is also the number two man in Iraq. But at the moment, the focus is on the British Isles, except for the forces who are particularly concerned about the movements of Baozixuan and the Black Cloud Group; it doesn't arouse too much suspicion!
The second son said with a smile: "I didn't expect the Soviets to play so big this time. It seems that we really can't underestimate Kebog's strength!"
Absolutely feeling it, and at the same time, I have a new understanding of the KGB's comprehensive strength and ruthlessness! In recent years, because of oil relations, Arab countries have gradually become branched.
But the huge gap in strength, coupled with the backward industrial system in the region; makes the Arab world still have some confidence in facing European and American countries! This kind of psychological gap is difficult to smooth out in a short time; perhaps after a war, the psychological shadow will be relieved by completely defeating the opponent!
If you think about it, you will know that it is impossible. Israel alone is enough to cause headaches for Arab countries; how dare you provoke other countries. However, use the funds in your hands to buy looted cultural relics; I am still willing to try!
Egypt can do it, Baozixuan can do it; they have no reason not to!
This time the second son is not only representing Iraq as a country, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com can be said to come for the inheritance of the Arab world!
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "The KGB has always been unconstrained in its actions; outsiders really can't figure it out! But it can deal a huge blow to the British, which is beneficial to us in any way! Don't be too entangled, the most important thing is to live well!"
There is no direct answer, but it seems to have given a specific answer; it depends on how the second son understands!
The two are very familiar, and the second son is not polite; he said directly: "At present, Iraq has contacted the British side, some ancient Babylonian cultural relics; the other party said that they can discuss it."
"It's nothing more than exchanging oil, but what father values most is the Code of Hammurabi; I don't know what you can do! As long as you can welcome them back, it doesn't matter if you pay some price!"
I'm very sorry, because the children's summer camp was trapped in the capital; plus the teacher who led the team was sick. Urgently buy air tickets and fly there, and I will try my best to make up for it in the next few days!
