In the first half of the 20th century, a common phenomenon in China's used book industry and antique industry was a large outflow.
During the period of the Republic of China, there were no laws and regulations prohibiting cultural relics from leaving the country, and there was a lack of necessary management of the second-hand book industry and the antique industry, resulting in the outflow of national treasures through this channel unimpeded.
Among the countless precious Chinese cultural relics that NNNN has collected in museums and private hands in Europe, the United States, Japan, and other countries, there are not only those that were directly stolen during the war of aggression against China, those that were openly taken away in the name of "academic investigation," but also those that were trafficked in collusion by Chinese and foreign profiteers, and a large number of them purchased through the antique market. nnnn: These losses are really difficult to calculate.
NNNN foreign businessmen coveted the cultural relics of China, and also opened trading houses in Yanjing, Shenjiang and other places where cultural relics gathered, specializing in the acquisition of Chinese cultural relics, and some Chinese antique dealers also opened antique shops specializing in foreigners' business. nnnn And just today, there are still people doing this kind of business, which really makes Wen Xiao very angry, but now is not the time to turn his face, he must be patient and continue to be patient. nnnn: "Big boss, have you ever heard of a guy named Yue Bin.
Wen Xiao looked at the Buddha's head and said lightly: "This Buddha's head reminds me of such a person."
"nnnn" big antique dealer, Yue Bin, of course I've heard of it.
Yi Wenyang smiled slightly: "A native of Zhanggezhuang, Tongxian County, Hebei Province, his family is poor, and he worked as an apprentice in a small antique shop in Yanjing in 1910.
In 1917, he began to correspond with Wei Wuda, who had served as the French minister to China, and helped Wei Wuda buy lacquerware, French flower ware and cloisonné.
He searched everywhere for news, and the American imperialists loved to buy bronzes and Jun kiln porcelain.
The French love to buy flowers, lacquerware, and cloisonné.
Dongying people love to buy ancient jade and Longquan porcelain.
The Anglo-German people like those things with high archaeological value, and he keeps them all in mind.
He has also been paying attention to the newly unearthed things in Huaxia. nnnn Wenxiao was slightly stunned, I didn't expect Yi Wenyang to know a lot of things, probably because he was proficient in one line, these historical knowledge is really very out-of-the-way. nnnn "At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the East and West Yongbao Zhai antique shop bought seven stone carved Buddha heads of the Northern Wei Dynasty from Datong, Shanxi.
In the twenties, Yue Bin heard that Dongying collectors collected stone carvings and woodcuts, Western archaeologists studied ancient Chinese statue stone carvings, and the Northern Wei Dynasty stone carvings of Buddha statues had high artistic value.
He heard the wind and bought the seven Buddha heads for four hundred.
He first sold a Buddha head to the Dongying Mountain Chamber of Commerce for 800, and foreign antique dealers kept buying it after knowing it, and sold it for more than ten years one after another, because Yue Bin asked a sculptor to copy the stone Buddha head for him, and imitated the Song Dynasty woodcarved Buddha statue, copied and imitated the Northern Wei Dynasty stone carving and the Song Dynasty woodcarved statue, and made a fortune by passing off the fake as the real one" nnnn Speaking of this, Yi Wenyang sighed with emotion: "He is also a character, and he has cheated a lot of foreigners out of money, hahaha, Brother Wenxiao, do you say it is "nnnn" However, Yue Bin's theft and sale of the Longmen Northern Wei Dynasty stone carving emperor and queen Buddha figure can be regarded as the biggest evil deed in his life.
Wen Xiao said expressionlessly. nnnn Yi Wenyang felt that something was wrong with Wen Xiao: "This is not a bad deed, cultural relics are money in the eyes of many people, as long as they can be exchanged for money, anything can be done."
"nnnn" yes.
In fact, the big boss and Yue Bin are the same kind of people" Wen Xiao smiled slightly: "In order to get the emperor's Buddha picture, Yue Bin bought the local garrison in Luoyang, chiseled the emperor's Buddha picture into pieces, transported it back to Yanjing, and then asked someone to glue the broken stone to the repair, which is really the same as today's big boss cutting the Buddha's head."
"nnnn" I can't compare with Yue Bin, who is a legendary antique dealer.
Yi Wenyang smiled slightly. nnnn Of course he didn't want to compare himself with Yue Bin, because Yue Bin was finally found out about the crime of the emperor and queen Li Buddha, and he died directly in prison nnnn Yi Wenyang will not be caught, so he doesn't admit that he and Yue Bin are the same kind of people, but he is Yue Bin's kind of people, they are the profiteers in the cultural relics world, and they are the kind of people that all decent cultural relics dealers despise. nnnn Wen Xiao said in his heart, he is a legendary big antique criminal, and he is almost an antique dealer, and the guy surnamed Yue is also worthy of being called an antique dealer, which is simply a big shame in the cultural relics world, nnnn "Where does the big boss want to transport the Buddha's head" Wen Xiao has been carefully looking at the Buddha's head, this kind of national treasure-level cultural relics have been cut off directly, it is really a great disrespect and destruction of history, if people like Yi Wenyang are not arrested, it will be a threat to the entire human society.
The buyer was a Dongying businessman who had a very strong interest in the Chinese Buddha head.
Yi Wenyang said: "You only need to board the ship at the transfer station of the black crow and wait, and I will notify the other party's people to pick you up at that time."
When nnnn Yi Wenyang finished saying this, Yi Wenxing handed a mobile phone to Wen Xiao: "You can keep in touch with us at any time, and notify us as soon as possible if you have any situation."
"nnnn" If I am robbed at the transfer station, I am afraid it will be too late for me to call" Wen Xiao smiled bitterly: "This call is meaningless to me."
"nnnn Indeed, this call is meaningless to Wen Xiao, it must be monitored, maybe even if Wen Xiao doesn't call, there are things in this mobile phone that can monitor Wen Xiao's behavior. nnnn: "I think it's important for you to bring a communication device that you can use to get in touch with us.
Yi Wenyang said: "If, I mean if, if there is really anything in case, we can also help you as much as possible." nnnn Wen Xiao smiled slightly: "Okay, although I really don't believe that you will help me if something happens to me, but at least if something really happens to me, I can also notify you and let you know that I didn't run away with something."
"nnnn" Hahaha, nothing will happen, Wen Xiao, you just like to joke.
Yi Wenguang grinned: "With you doing this, we are 100% assured, and 100% believe that you can solve this matter." nnnn nodded: "I hope so."
It's just that such an important thing, are you going to spend the night in this place tonight, but don't even go out of Huaxia yet, this thing is being targeted, big boss, do things clean enough, I don't want to be planted in Huaxia.
"nnnn" If I can't even do this little thing, then don't do this business at all.
Yi Wenyang's mood seemed to be much more relaxed, everything seemed to be under his control, and he was still one step away from being able to transfer this Buddha head. nnnn is only one step away, and the last step Yi Wenyang believes that God is on his side, and he believes that he will succeed.
His efforts and dedication will not be wasted, as long as he is brave enough, he believes that he will be able to become a more powerful and legendary figure than Yue Bin Even if there is a very clear law in Huaxia now, stealing and selling national cultural relics is an absolute felony, he is still willing to take risks, because this benefit is too tempting, and it is much easier than him making money by getting those smuggled cars. isjgniitfreeti0:
