Chapter 1331 The official hat of the Song Dynasty

After Chen Yi walked into the exhibition hall, the Chinese experts and several policemen in the rear also followed him in.

James stayed there, looking at Chen Yi's back, his face seemed to become a little gloomy. The intelligence of this young man was far beyond his expectations. No wonder he was able to achieve such an amazing achievement.

But no matter how smart he is, he can only take advantage of his words. It is useless to return this batch of Chinese cultural relics. Thinking of this, a strong smile appeared on his face and slowly walked into the exhibition hall, full of a sense of superiority in ability.

Although Chen Yi's achievements shocked him, he was not very convinced. He was very eager for Chinese cultural relics, but it was just a need for interests. He did not have much favorable feelings for Chinese people.

At this time, when he saw Chen Yi, a famous young art master in China, he naturally wanted to gain the upper hand in the confrontation with him to show off to his friends.

When they entered the exhibition hall, the first thing they saw was the Chinese porcelain placed in the display cabinet. Under the light, the porcelain exuded an attractive light and looked very beautiful and charming.

"Haha, Mr. Chen, I don't need to introduce these Chinese porcelain too much. Please watch it yourself. Speaking of which, in my exhibition hall, there are also the Chai kiln porcelain produced by your company. Although it is produced in modern times, its historical connotation is very far-reaching. I also regard it as a cultural relic and placed it in the exhibition hall."

While everyone was watching the porcelain, James smiled and said, "The meaning of the words was like Chen Yi's Chai Kiln porcelain. It was so honorable to be able to enter his exhibition hall."

At the same time, after he finished speaking, he was also waiting for Chen Yi or an expert to answer, but Chen Yi had no intention of opening his mouth. He was still seriously watching the porcelain next to him, and some experts also saw the words in this sentence, so naturally they did not open their mouths.

However, an expert didn't think so much and said with a smile: "Mr. James, you got the Chai Kiln, and you have to send us more Chinese cultural relics."

In the auction activities held by Chen Yi, such as calligraphy or Chai Kiln Auction, if foreigners want to participate in the auction and purchase lots, they need to take out equivalent antiques and cultural relics to exchange them.

If this was taken by James, then it would have been exchanged with equivalent Chinese antiques and cultural relics.

Hearing the expert's words, James laughed, "Haha, this Chinese expert, hello, but sorry, you guessed it wrong. I bought this wood kiln through a special channel and shipped it to Little Britain."

Mr. Zheng and other Chinese cultural relics experts next to him shook their heads and smiled when they looked at the expert, but they didn't say anything. Some Chinese experts were immersed in academic research all day long and had no experience in this conspiracy.

As Chen Yi Company's Chai Kiln Auction continues, naturally more and more people have obtained Chai Kilns, and the transactions of these Chai Kilns are not restricted. James can buy Chai Kilns from others and then transport them back to Little Britain. This person just wants to show everyone his methods through Chai Kilns.

The Chinese expert realized something when he heard James' words at this time, and his face changed and showed a hint of embarrassment.

Chen Yi still did not respond at all. He kept watching the porcelain in front of him silently, as if what was happening next to him had nothing to do with him.

"Oh, Mr. James has a good method, and he can actually think of such a way to easily obtain the Chai Kiln. Then it seems that you will get the top Longyuan Shengxue without any effort." Unable to bear the expert's embarrassment, Mr. Zheng said with a smile.

The expert was also kind-hearted and didn't expect James to have the upper hand, but he didn't expect there was a pit in his words waiting for him to jump down.

Hearing Mr. Zheng's words, James' smile suddenly solidified. He could get the Chai Kiln and the jade carved by Chen Yi, but he spent a lot of energy on the calligraphy written by Chen Yi and the top Longyuan Shengxue, but he could not get what he wanted.

All the photographers of Chen Yi's calligraphy are rich, and as Chen Yi's fame becomes more and more successful, the value of these previous calligraphy is not only increasing rapidly, but also representing an honor, so they will naturally not sell it easily.

Those who get the top Longyuan Shengxue are even more rich among the rich. Such things that can make people feel relaxed and relaxed physically and mentally are not enough to drink by themselves, so why would they be sold to others?

"This should be Mr. Chen's master, expert Zheng. Although I have not obtained it yet, I believe that it will come true soon." James said with a smile after he came back to his senses.

Mr. Zheng was just helping the expert. He was too lazy to argue with this James, so he just shook his head and smiled and continued to watch the cultural relics.

These porcelains are very exquisite, including Tang Sancai, Song celadon, Yuan blue and white porcelain, Mingcai porcelain, Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain, which can be said to be all kinds of pottery, even further away, which can be seen in the exhibition hall.

Each piece can be said to be very precious, and some even have traces of oxidation from the unearthed porcelain. Such an open and upright placement also means that there is no fear of the parties coming to claim.

While watching the cultural relics in the exhibition hall, Chen Yi couldn't help but turn back to James and asked: "Mr. James, if I like some cultural relics in your villa, I don't know if you can sell them to me."

Hearing Chen Yi's words, James laughed happily, "Haha, I used to think that Mr. Chen didn't like some of my cultural relics. Now, it's not the case. I am an antique dealer and I'm doing antique trading business."

"If Mr. Chen likes a few of them, I can sell them to you. If it is the Chinese cultural relics in the entire villa and you like them, I'm a little sorry. However, the cultural relics you like must be paid at the cost of your calligraphy."

Most people come to him to buy antiques and pay money. But now Chen Yi wants to buy them, that’s different. Just like the auction held by Chen Yi, foreigners want to pay for Chinese cultural relics, and he also wants to imitate it and ask Chen Yi to pay for it with calligraphy.

Chen Yi is now at its peak, and many foreign collectors are eager to get his calligraphy. He exchanged cultural relics for calligraphy, which is a business that is sure to make a profit.

Of course, if Chen Yi picked a few, he would still sell them. If he exchanged calligraphy for all his cultural relics like before, it would not work.

"Oh, then thank you Mr. James." Chen Yi nodded gently, without raising any objection, and then continued to look forward at the Chinese cultural relics.

In the following time, watching Chen Yi walk past one by one, his face remains calm, without showing any hope he wants. This makes James a little confused. Does Chen Yi look down on these precious cultural relics?

On the faces of some Chinese cultural relics experts behind him, they showed a look of surprise because of the precious cultural relics.

Before they knew it, they walked to the miscellaneous area where various types of antiques and cultural relics were placed, including wood carvings, clothing, gold and silver jewelry, etc., including some precious things.

For example, the entire wood carving or ivory product carved from small-leafed red sandalwood is either unearthed or something shameful has been secretly smuggled over. An antique businessman naturally puts interests first and does not often go to auctions like collectors to obtain antiques at high prices.

When watching these Chinese cultural relics, whenever they encounter some cultural relics with unearthed traces, some Chinese experts will take out their cameras to take pictures, but James on the side did not stop him and didn't care at all.

He didn't even worry about this batch of cultural relics that were directly arrested and seized, let alone the things that had been placed in his room like this.

However, among these miscellaneous items, there are also some things that are not very valuable, which are placed in the corner of the cabinet, and these cabinets do not have any protective measures.

Chen Yi watched all the way, picked up some objects from time to time and carefully observed them. In another corner of the cabinet, he stopped for a moment and took out a hat placed in the cabinet.

This is a Song Dynasty official hat, also known as a long-winged hat. As the name suggests, there are long iron sheets on both sides of the back of the official hat, as if it has wings.

The inventor of the long-winged hat was Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty. After he sat on the dragon throne, he was very worried about his colleagues who had made the world together, and especially hated the whispering of civil and military ministers in the court and commenting on the government affairs.

One day, when he was attending the morning court and listening to the memorial of a minister, he found that many officials on both sides whispered, which was very impolite. After retreating, he thought of a way and sent an order to pass on the order. He put a long wing behind the veil hat. After putting it on, the officials could only talk face to face. It was difficult to sit side by side, let alone whispering together when attending the court.

Touching this hat, Chen Yi couldn't help but think of the identification information that came to his mind before. When he came to this exhibition hall, the most important thing was to get this hat.

James, who was standing by, saw Chen Yi picking up the hat and couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Chen, this is a hat worn by a second-rank official of the Song Dynasty. I don't know what is used inside. It's a bit refreshing when worn. You can try it."
