Chapter 192 "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest"

Su Bai agreed to He Qiujun's request.

Make an appointment with him to meet at Boss Qian’s home.

On the one hand, Boss Qian can help her hide her identity.

On the other hand, Boss Qian's home has security and monitoring, which can prevent accidents from happening to the celestial eye.

Su Bai came to Boss Qian's house early and discussed with the Qian father and daughter how to deal with Suzuki Erlang.

Suzuki Jiro thought that asking He Qiujun for help would take some effort.

Unexpectedly, after saying his request to see Su Bai, He Qiujun agreed without saying a word.

He also readily said that he could act as a middleman to facilitate transactions between the two parties.

Of course, Suzuki Erlang would not refuse He Qiujun's enthusiasm.

He followed He Qiujun and an old man in his 70s to the Qian family villa.

He is Suzuki Jiro's uncle.

His name is Sakamoto Santo
I travel around Hong Kong Island and the mainland all year round and like to collect.

He has a high level of appreciation for antiques.

He is also a renowned appraisal expert.

Suzuki Erlang invited old man Sakamoto to identify the authenticity of the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan.

The three of them came to the Qian family villa together.

Boss Qian personally welcomed them into his home.

"The Filipino maid at home is sick, so I can only entertain you personally. Please forgive me."

Boss Qian said to the three of them while making tea.

He gave his Filipino maid a day off.

This is also Boss Qian's preparation to avoid any surprises in Su Bai's plan.

Qian Xiaoqian temporarily acted as a servant, serving tea to the guests.

“Good tea!”

Old man Sakamoto took a sip of tea and couldn't help but praise.

He Qiujun also echoed: "It is indeed the best tea I have drunk this year."

"This pot of Dahongpao is picked from the mother tree on the high rock cliff of Jiulong Nest in Wuyi Mountain."

Boss Qian showed off proudly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was extremely surprised.

You must know that the tea leaves from the mother tree once sold for a high price of 1000 million per kilogram. Nowadays, picking is prohibited, and they are even more affordable.

Boss Qian really spent a lot of money in entertaining guests.

"Thanks to my brother, Su Bai's father, for giving me some. Otherwise, everyone wouldn't be able to drink such good tea today."

Boss Qian chuckled.

"It turns out that Miss Su brought it."

He Qiujun said, looking at Su Bai, smiling and nodding.

After drinking tea, I couldn't help but be curious about Su Bai's legendary wealthy businessman father, and couldn't help asking about it.

"By the way, which company is Uncle Su's boss? If you have a chance, you must cooperate with him."

He wanted to investigate Su Bai's background so that he could have further opportunities to contact Su Bai.

Su Bai smiled slightly and said: "An unknown furniture small business is cutting down trees in South America all year round. It's not worth mentioning."

She refused to say it, and He Qiujun was helpless.

It's just that Suzuki Jiro beside him couldn't sit still.

He was anxious to take a look at the Yaobian Tianmu lamp to confirm its authenticity, and couldn't help but said: "Good tea requires good tea sets. Miss Su, can you let me see the Yaobian Tianmu lamp?"

Su Bai knew it and asked, "Didn't Mr. Suzuki just read it this morning?"

It's okay not to mention it. As soon as he mentioned what happened to the Li family, Suzuki Erlang became very angry.

The rare treasure was taken away for a low price of 50 yuan right in front of his eyes, which was a great shame and humiliation for him.

He suppressed his anger and forced a smile and said: "I was wrong at the time. This time I invited an expert, Mr. Sakamoto, who can help Miss Su identify the authenticity of the tea bowl."

"There is no need for an appraisal. My father reminded me in the morning that the tea bowl might be real. Under his arrangement, I have asked several experts to conduct appraisals. The conclusion is that the tea bowl is a genuine treasure."

Su Bai said with a smile.

"What if the experts invited by Miss Su make a mistake?"

Suzuki Jiro interjected.

"They are experts from mainland China. It is said that they work in the Palace Museum. After they appraised it, they also proposed an acquisition intention, so I believe their appraisal results."

After Su Bai finished speaking, Suzuki Erlang's face became a little ugly.

Mainland experts took the lead!

He stopped pretending and said bluntly: "Miss Su, our Suzuki consortium also wants to purchase the Yaobian Tianmu lamp in your hand, and the purchase price must be higher than that of mainland experts, because only we Japanese know how to appreciate such high-end tea utensils. So can you take out the tea bowl and let us take a look."

Su Bai was a little unhappy with Suzuki Erlang's arrogant tone.

However, in order to make him take the bait, he still suppressed his anger.

"Yes, yes, but you have to be careful. You can only look at it but not touch it."

"This one……"

Suzuki Jiro looked at old man Sakamoto.

If you want to sell something but don’t let buyers get started, that’s nothing.

But old man Sakamoto nodded confidently: "Yes, I promise not to touch the tea bowl. As long as I can take a look at the real Yaobian Tianmu lamp, I will be content in this life."

Suzuki Erlang had no choice but to agree to Su Bai's request.

Su Bai waved, and Qian Xiaoqian walked out holding a huge square box.

She opened the box and untied the layers of satin.

Finally, under the expectant eyes of everyone, the true appearance of the third eye bowl that was to be transformed was revealed.

Old man Sakamoto looked at the tea bowl and was stunned for a moment.

I couldn't help but want to reach out and take out the tea bowl from the box.

"Hey, I can't get started!"

Qian Xiaoqian nervously stepped forward to stop him.

Su Bai arranged for her to take care of the national treasure, so she couldn't make any mistakes.

Her voice woke old man Sakamoto from his drunken state.

"Ah, I'm so ashamed. I was stunned for a moment."

Old man Sakamoto bowed and apologized.

"My little girl is a little abrupt, please don't pay attention, Mr. Sakamoto."

Boss Qian waved his hand.

"It's my fault. I promised Miss Su not to touch the baby, but I still couldn't help but reach out."

Old man Sakamoto said in shame.

This move left Suzuki Jiro speechless.

Originally, I wanted to fool Su Bai.

As a result, his side showed up first.

From this point of view, there is no doubt that the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan in Su Bai's hand is real.

However, he still asked old man Sakamoto for his opinion: "Mr. Sakamoto, what do you think?"

"Undoubtedly a Song Dynasty treasure, no questions asked."

The old man Sakamoto spoke firmly and authentically.

Suzuki Erlang had no choice but to turn to Su Bai and said: "Miss Su, I offer 9000 million, can you transfer this bowl to me?"

"After I bring it back to Japan, I will definitely put it in the Jinggado Bunko Museum of Art in Tokyo, and record Ms. Su's name in the list of contributors."

Only 9000 million?
Might as well grab it!
Not to mention adding his name to the museum.

Do you really think this is an honor?

It's clearly an insult to a national weapon, isn't it?
Su Bai flattened his lips and said, "If I pay 1 million to buy the celestial eye lamp in your museum, will you sell it?"

"Um...Ms. Su is not satisfied with the quotation?"

Suzuki Jiro asked.

After the conversation, He Qiujun next to him was stunned.

The tea bowl that Su Bai spent hundreds of thousands on was actually worth hundreds of millions!
This is a big mistake!

"That's not all my dad gives me as pocket money."

Su Bai said, taking out his mobile phone, opening his bank account and showing it to the other party.

A large series of numbers suddenly appeared on the phone screen.

"1, 2, 3..."

Qian Xiaoqian counted the numbers on it, and then exclaimed: "Sister Su actually has 1 million in cash in her account!"

Speaking of which, it’s a coincidence.

While Su Bai was wandering around, he saw a line of people lined up at the entrance of Hong Kong Island Bank.

When I asked about it, I learned that Hong Kong Island has recently raised interest rates again.

Many mainlanders come to Hong Kong Island banks to open accounts and save money to earn interest.

She thought that the money in several cards could not be used temporarily, so she followed suit and opened an account.

Deposited the money earned from missing items into a new account.

At this time, it’s just a good time to show off.

"Sorry, I was abrupt."

Seeing the deposit in Su Bai's account, Suzuki Erlang swallowed his saliva.

A rich girl with a hundred million pocket money in hand naturally looked down on his offer.

He Qiujun was also quite surprised.

He is worth hundreds of millions, but all the money he has is used for investment and financial management.

Asking him to come up with [-] million in cash would be difficult in a short period of time.

At this moment, he really believed that Su Bai was Bai Fumei.

He secretly made up his mind to investigate the situation of the Su family when he returned.

If you really want to be a good match, it's not impossible to pursue Su Bai.

Everyone has their own thoughts.

Su Bai looked at the old man Sakamoto and asked with a smile: "Old sir, how much do you think I should sell this Yao Chang Tianmu lamp for?"

Mr. Sakamoto was asked.

He is the appraisal expert invited by Suzuki Erlang, and he knows the value of the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan.

But the seller actually didn't follow the routine and asked him to give an offer.

If you say it is low, it seems that your level is not good enough.

To put it too high is not good for the Suzuki Consortium.

In the dilemma, he could only give a compromise offer: "I think this bowl can be sold for 3 million."

As soon as these words came out, Suzuki Jiro's face turned dark.

If someone asks you to say it, you really do it!
Although the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan is indeed worth its price, it is still a bit difficult for the Suzuki Consortium to pay so much money.

After hesitating for a moment, Suzuki Erlang said bravely: "Is Miss Su satisfied with this quotation?"

"It's worth 3 million."

Su Bai fell into deep thought, then smiled and said: "But your price is much higher than the experts from the mainland. They lied to me and said that this bowl is worth at most 1 million. Fortunately, I didn't agree to sell it to them at that time."

When Suzuki Erlang saw this, he almost couldn't sit still.

It turns out that the seller really doesn’t know the price of the Yaobian Tianmu lamp!

He glared at Mr. Sakamoto fiercely, as if to ask why the old guy didn't quote more than 1 million.

There are also Chinese experts who are hateful.

He actually wanted to defraud the Yaobian Tianmu lamp at a low price.

Fortunately, he took action in time and was able to get ahead of them!

Mr. Sakamoto was also helpless.

He also had preconceptions, thinking that Su Bai knew the true value of the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan.

But now that the words have been spoken, it is irreversible.

"Since Ms. Su is satisfied with the price, why don't we sign the acquisition contract."

Suzuki Jiro made a prompt decision and took out the prepared contract from his briefcase.

"Mr. Suzuki is really prepared."

Su Bai picked up the contract with a smile and read it line by line seriously.

15 minute later.

Su Bai was still looking at the contract.

From time to time, he took out his mobile phone to check the terms of the contract, and pulled Qian Xiaoqian to ask if the terms were reasonable.

As for Boss Qian, he looked like he didn't care about anything.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to making tea for the guests and discussing the tea ceremony with Mr. Sakamoto.

Suzuki Jiro couldn't sit still.

I wonder if you, a little girl, understand the terms of the contract?
If you don't understand, just find a lawyer.

He asked tentatively: "Has Miss Su read the contract?"

Su Bai raised his head, curled his lips and said dissatisfied: "Why does the Suzuki Consortium have to pay in installments when buying this bowl?"

"That's it?" Suzuki Erlang was shocked.

Is that why you have been thinking about it for so long?
He explained helplessly: "Ms. Su may not understand that many of these cultural relic transactions require payment in installments. A portion of the deposit is paid to the seller first, and the remaining balance is paid later."

"But when my father bids at the auction, he always pays the auction price in full."

Su Bai said innocently.

Suzuki Jiro was speechless by these words.

If you can pay the full amount, that means your family is rich!
He refrained from breaking out and bowed: "Paying the amount in one lump sum will put too much pressure on the Suzuki Consortium. Please forgive me, Miss Su."

“So it’s because we don’t have enough money?”

Su Bai frowned and said, "What if you take something and then default on the bill?"

"That's why we have to sign the contract."

Suzuki Jiro couldn't sit still.

"No, if you default on your debt, I will lose money."

Su Bai returned the contract to Suzuki Erlang.

He shook his head and said: "The contract will be redone. I require a one-time payment of 3 million."

Qian Xiaoqian also echoed: "Yes, it must be paid in full, installments are nothing!"

Su Bai then gave an explanation: "I asked my father. He has investigated the Suzuki Consortium. Your business in Hong Kong Island is too small. It is about to withdraw from the market. It may face a bankruptcy crisis at any time. If you want to acquire this tea bowl, just Must pay in full.”

Suzuki Jiro felt a little broken.

The Suzuki Group is originally a shell company.

The main focus is on helping the Japanese government collect intelligence.

Acquiring cultural relics is just one of the tasks.

It is indeed difficult for the Suzuki Consortium to spend 3 million yuan at a time.

But if he refuses, Su Bai may sell the tea bowl to the Chinese side, and he will certainly not be able to explain it to his superiors when he returns.

Suzuki Jiro gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Su, please wait for me. I'll call to inquire whether I can mobilize the consortium's funds for the acquisition."

"Please."

Su Bai raised his hand to signal.

Suzuki Jiro immediately walked to the balcony, took out his mobile phone and started making calls.

He reported the situation of Yaobian Tianmuzhan to the superior department.

At the same time, Su Bai's request was described, requesting to apply for funds for procurement.

The superior department did not give him an immediate reply and said it would hold a meeting to discuss it.

However, Suzuki Erlang was asked to hold Su Bai back and prevent her from selling the tea bowl to others.

After making the call, Suzuki Erlang returned to the tea table.

He smiled and said: "Miss Su, the senior management of the consortium has agreed to purchase the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan in full, but there is a small request."

"any request?"

"We can pay part of the deposit first. I hope you will not sell the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan to others."

"Just this request?"

"Yes, we really don't want to miss this tea bowl."

Su Bai nodded and said, "No problem, I can sign a contract with you."

Suzuki Jiro was overjoyed.

He immediately ordered his secretary to draw up a contract and send it to Boss Qian's home.

The content of the contract is that the Suzuki Consortium pays Su Bai a deposit of 100 million to ensure that she will not give out the Yaoban Tianmu Zhan to others.

Suzuki Erlang felt that as long as he paid the full amount, Su Bai would not regret it.

I only signed a deposit twice the liquidated damages.

Su Bai didn't care about the 200 million and signed the agreement readily.

Suzuki Erlang took the contract and left the Qian family with satisfaction.

Just left not long ago.

He received a call from Professor Wu.

"What's going on with Wu Sang?"

Professor Wu's voice was urgent and authentic: "Mr. Suzuki, I have heard new news. Mr. Li suspects that Dong Qichang's paintings are fakes. The focus of the working group has been on the acquisition of the Yaobian Tianmu Zhan."

"However, they strictly kept this news secret. They wanted the Suzuki Consortium to focus on Dong Qichang's paintings and have no worries about the Yao Transformation Tianmu Zhan!"

"That's it. I know. Wu Sang's news is very valuable. We have decided to give up acquiring that painting."

Suzuki Jiro said with a smile.

Suzuki Jiro left first.

But He Qiujun still depends on the Qian family.

"I'm a little interested in Miss Su's family business, and I also have funds. Are you willing to do something with me?"

He Qiujun found a reason to inquire about Su Bai's situation.

Su Bai said perfunctorily: "I don't know much about the family business."

"It doesn't matter, I can contact uncle directly."

"Then I'll ask him tomorrow. It's still midnight in America, so he should be resting."

Faced with He Qiujun's stalking, Su Bai was helpless and could only look to Qian Xiaoqian for help.

Qian Xiaoqian understood Su Bai's eyes.

He stepped forward and took her arm and said, "Didn't my cousin say that I want to buy some gifts for my uncle and go shopping in the antique street? It's almost time to leave."

When He Qiujun heard this, he didn't realize that they were trying to drive him away, but instead he became interested.

"I happen to be going to Wenya Xuan on Antique Street, so why not go together?"

"This one……"

Su Bai was thinking about the reasons for rejecting him.

He Qiujun continued: "I heard from the boss of Wenyaxuan that today a guest wants to have Dong Qichang's paintings appraised. Why don't we go and open our eyes together?"

Su Bai was slightly startled when he heard Dong Qichang's paintings.

Couldn't it be that national treasure?

What a coincidence!
She immediately changed her words: "I just want to buy a Chinese painting for my father's birthday gift, so let's go together."

Qian Xiaoqian on the side was dumbfounded.

Didn’t you ask me to help you just now?
Why did you suddenly agree to go out with He Qiujun now?
This turned around too fast!
After half an hour.

The three of them came to an antique store with a Wenyaxuan sign.

"I made an appointment with your boss."

He Qiujun spoke to the waiter at the door.

"It turns out to be Mr. He, please come inside!"

The man took the three of them to the second floor.

The second floor of Wenyaxuan is a reception room.

Inside, there was a 70-year-old man holding a magnifying glass and leaning on the table to carefully examine a painting.

Seeing someone coming upstairs, the old man raised his head and said with a smile: "Mr. He is here so early? Please sit down first and wait for me to finish reading this painting."

"This is Mr. Wen, the boss of Wenyaxuan."

He Qiujun introduced to Su Bai and Qian Xiaoqian.

"Hello, Mr. Wen."

Su Bai greeted politely.

Mr. Wen nodded in response and then immersed himself in looking at the painting with a magnifying glass.

Several people came to the tea table, and there was already a thin old man drinking tea from a tea cup.

It seems that he is also Mr. Wen's guest.

Both sides just nodded politely.

In order to avoid disturbing Mr. Wen, they did not speak loudly.

Su Bai judged that this person was the holder of "Frost Forest Autumn Thoughts".

But she was more concerned about the paintings on the table.

Throw a scan over.

The system gave feedback information quickly.

It's actually Dong Qichang's "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest"!
Worth 3 billion!
Isn't this thing in the National Palace Museum in Bay Island?
It will appear in front of you!

And it’s still authentic!

Could it be that the Palace Museum in Bay Island was robbed just like the British Museum?
Su Bai's breathing became a little rapid.

She could conclude that Mr. Li came to Hong Kong Island just for this painting.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly walked to the table.

He glanced at it casually and said, "This painting looks pretty good."

"Nonsense, this is Dong Qichang's authentic work!"

The thin old man was a little dissatisfied.

"Dong Qichang's authentic work?"

Su Bai pretended to be surprised and blurted out: "It's fake!"

"You are young, so don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

The thin old man suddenly became angry.

Su Bai shook his head and said: "Old sir, don't be joking. This painting is clearly "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest". The original painting is now preserved in the Bay Island Palace Museum. The one here can only be a fake."

"Hmph! The painting in Wandao is a fake, the one in my hand is the real one!"

The thin old man spoke firmly and authentically.

As soon as these words came out, even Mr. Wen laughed.

He ignored the thin old man, turned to look at Su Bai, and asked, "My little friend, do you study antiques?"

"I just heard that the original is in the Bay Island Museum."

Su Bai replied with a smile.

"I do think this painting may be an authentic work from the Ming Dynasty."

Mr. Wen said with a smile.

"If Mr. Wen says it's authentic, then it's true."

The thin old man beamed with joy.

Mr. Wen waved his hand: "Don't be too arbitrary. I only made a preliminary appraisal and haven't made a conclusion yet. And I only said it was painted in the Ming Dynasty, not Dong Qichang's work."

Hearing this, the thin old man became a little anxious: "Mr. Wen, I can guarantee that this painting is definitely authentic!"

He Qiujun and Qian Xiaoqian both laughed.

Many antique collectors buy fakes, but they firmly believe that the fakes in their hands are real, and the collections in the museum are fakes.

Others tell them there is something wrong with something, but they don't listen to a word.

The thin old man in front of me cannot be said to be similar, only exactly the same.

Only Su Bai didn't laugh, she knew what the old man said was right.

The painting is indeed an authentic work by Dong Qichang.

The one from the Bay Island Museum is a fake, if not stolen.

However, there was no news that any cultural relics were stolen from the Bay Island Museum.

"Old sir, how long have you had this painting in your possession?"

Su Bai asked curiously.

The thin old man thought for a moment and said, "It's been more than ten years."

Su Bai nodded.

If the old man is not lying, it has been in his hands for more than ten years, which means it is not the one from Wandao.

The "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest" in the museum is a fake!
No wonder Mr. Li takes it so seriously!
Even when he came to Hong Kong Island, he refused to tell the experts what paintings needed to be identified!
At the same time, Su Bai also had a question.

The level of experts in Wandao is so poor that they can't even spot a fake?

With doubts, he asked: "What does Mr. Wen think of this painting?"

"I think this painting is a work imitated by Dong Qichang by literati in the Ming and Qing dynasties."

"Then what does the seal on it say?"

"It must have been added deliberately by later generations in order to disguise the painting as authentic."

Mr. Wen gave a preliminary judgment: "Only this situation can explain why this "Autumn Thoughts in Frost Forest" and the one on Wandao have the same seal."

The thin old man said stubbornly: "No! It should be the painting on Wandao that was stamped later!"

Mr. Wen smiled and said nothing.

Su Bai understood this time that the Japanese would easily believe the rumor that the painting was a fake. He must have decided that the painting was a fake after learning that the painting was "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest".

In this way, the only people who think this painting is authentic are Mr. Li and her.

Mr. Li must have some evidence in his hands that can prove that this "Autumn Thoughts in the Frost Forest" is authentic.

Just didn't say it.

In this way, acquiring "Frost Forest Autumn Thoughts" will be much simpler.

Su Bai looked at He Qiujun and asked with a smile: "Mr. He, is this the painting you recommend me to buy?"

He Qiujun was a little embarrassed.

He only heard that it was a painting by Dong Qichang, but he didn't know what it was.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come, and I would have to embarrass myself in front of a beautiful woman!
