Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

In the 1920s, Wu Laixi, a Chinese antique dealer living in Britain, came to Liulichang with a pair of rare blue and white cloud dragon elephant ear vases, and asked the experts in the antique industry at the time to help them sell them. This pair of porcelain vases were originally enshrined in Zhihua Temple in Kyoto. One of them has a sixty-two-character inscription on the neck: "Zhang Wenjin, a disciple of Jingtang Society in Dejiaoli, Shuncheng Township, Yushan County, Xinzhou Road, is happy to give up a pair of incense burners and vases, praying May your family Qingji and your children be safe. Remember this good day in April of the 11th year of the Zhengzheng Period, and Marshal Hu Jingyi of Xingyuan Ancestral Palace will make a confession."

It is a pity that this pair of precious cultural relics were considered to be fake porcelain by almost all experts at the time and were rejected. It seemed that there was no blue and white porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty, which was the consensus among Chinese antiques at that time; the Chinese lost the opportunity to first understand the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty at their own doorstep. Finally, this ear vase was collected by Sir David, a British collector of ancient Chinese ceramics.

The appearance of the Yunlong Elephant Ear Vase in London first attracted the attention and recognition of Hobson, a scholar of Chinese ancient ceramics at the British Museum. In his article "Blue and White Porcelain Before 1", he introduced this pair of blue and white Yunlong patterns with inscriptions from the 11th year of Yuan Zhizheng. Elephant ear bottle. But Hobson’s discovery didn’t cause much of a stir!

1. Dr. Popu, a scholar of ancient Chinese ceramics at the Art Museum, published "14th Century Blue and White Porcelain: A Group of Chinese Porcelain Collection in Tobkapu Palace, Istanbul", 1. Chinese Porcelain Collection in Adbil Temple. Using the pair of vases collected by David as a standard vessel and comparing dozens of Chinese porcelains of a similar style collected by museums in Turkey and Iran, all blue-and-white porcelains with the style of elephant-ear vases were classified as 14th-century blue-and-white porcelain. Since then, Yuan blue and white has been valued and recognized by Chinese ancient ceramic scholars around the world. Chinese academic circles named this type of blue and white porcelain "Zhizheng type" Yuan blue and white; this pair of bottles, also known as Daweide bottles, became the recognized standard for dating "Zhizheng type" Yuan blue and white porcelain.

It is indeed ironic that the national treasure is not recognized at the doorstep, but relies on foreigners for identification! But these have nothing to do with Bao Zixuan, as long as you can get them back; it doesn't matter even if you pay a small price, let alone other things!

Soon Peng Yifei came to London, and the matter was very important; he had to send his confidants there. In fact, in Bao Zixuan's heart, he doesn't want Peng Yifei to be overexposed; but now there is no other way but to hope that the successors can catch up in time!

At this time, the Iron Lady was still dealing with the aftermath in Scotland, with thousands of people killed and injured; all of them civilians. Even during the war, it was a major event. In addition, there were many Scottish soldiers on the front line. If they really knew that their family members were shot and killed by their own soldiers, the possibility of internal conflict would be very high.

Fortunately, Bao Zixuan is really doing things, and the most important thing is that he has 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 that of the British Empire's Ministry of Finance; perhaps we need to re-examine this junior's status and strength!

Boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings were shipped out from major museums in the UK. There was such a big movement; it was impossible that there was no news at all. Even if the citizens of London don't know what's going on, intelligence officers from various countries can still find clues.

The bloodshed and sacrifices caused by the Scottish riots led various countries to increase the output of intelligence to the UK. Having dominated the world for hundreds of years, it was all based on infringing on the interests of other countries; there are indeed many enemies!

Even the US media, a traditional ally, has made relevant reports, and the authenticity of the incident cannot be doubted. In addition, the British side has intensified the blockade of Scotland, which always gives people the feeling that there is no silver here! There is negative news coming out of the British Empire, which is great news for many countries, so the opportunity cannot be missed!

Now I see cultural relics constantly flowing out of major museums in the UK, and I instantly understand what it means; you must know that the Age of Discovery has begun, and the British used their ships and cannons to plunder many cultural relics from various countries. Some are of great historical value and can even fill some academic gaps when brought home!

Although it is unclear how many benefits Bao Zixuan promised to the British, and actually asked the British Empire to open all museums; but it was nothing more than taking money. The British, who never suffer any loss, will not give away the cultural relics they get to anyone for free; even if the other person is the richest man in the world.

Even if the UK is in decline, a camel is still bigger than a horse. Now the British are short of money. I believe that as long as the funds are in place, they will not refuse purchase requests from other countries!

Watching the Heiyun Group transporting cultural relics from the museum one by one, it is definitely a lie not to be moved.

Bao Zixuan can do it, but they can't do it for no reason! Therefore, many countries, mainly those that were once colonized by the British, began to actively contact the British and expressed their willingness to spend funds to purchase their own cultural relics!

Things were already brewing; shame was inevitable; and the Iron Lady knew it all too well. With recent events, re-election is almost impossible. In this case, there is no need to worry so much; as long as it is beneficial to the British Empire, it does not matter if it bears some infamy!

In his position and in charge of his affairs; as the prime minister, if he doesn't take the blame at this time, does the royal family still need to come forward? If that were to happen, the British Empire would be completely torn apart. At that time, she will be a national sinner, even if she is very close to the national sinner at this moment, there is still room for redemption.

Countries that actively want to purchase cultural relics are welcome to come; unlike Bao Zixuan, we have to rely on them for many things. The attack is not that ruthless, and the price is relatively reasonable; other countries come to the door, and they must kill hard.

Besides, because of the huge amount of funds provided by Heiyun Group, funds were not so tight in a short period of time.

Even if we know it is unsustainable, there are indeed many cultural relics plundered by our ancestors; but they are ultimately limited. The empire's own hematopoietic ability is very critical, and of course this is also the reason why Bao Zixuan is not priced too high.

As the world's richest man and the head of the largest industrial group, the Iron Lady hopes that Heiyun Group will invest in more projects in the UK. It is inevitable for the Rothschild family to leave, especially when the Scottish incident broke out; the family's determination to leave has been strengthened. So how to fill the vacancy is urgent!

Obviously Bao Zixuan is a good fit, even if the other party owns Fucaira; but the site is too small, and due to the geographical location, it cannot absorb too much funds.

Iran on the opposite side alone is enough to give people a headache; as long as Bao Zixuan is not stupid, it is impossible to put eggs in one basket. As for Xiangjiang, the construction of Heiyun Town has basically been finalized; no more big moves are possible.

It is not impossible for 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 began to call 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 second most powerful person in Iraq. But at the moment, the focus of attention is focused on the British Isles, except for the forces who are particularly concerned about the movements of Bao Zixuan and Heiyun Group; it does not arouse too much suspicion!

The second young master smiled and said: "I didn't expect the Soviets to play such a big role this time. It seems that we really can't underestimate Keberg's strength!"

It was absolutely inspired, and at the same time, I had a new understanding of the KGB's comprehensive strength and ruthlessness! In recent years, Arab countries have become increasingly divided due to oil relations.

But the huge power gap, coupled with the backward industrial system in the region, makes the Arab world still somewhat unconfident when facing European and American countries! This psychological gap is difficult to erase in a short period of time; perhaps experiencing a war and completely defeating the opponent will relieve the psychological shadow!

If you think about it, you will know that it is impossible. Israel alone is enough to cause headaches for Arab countries; how can it dare to provoke other countries. However, I am still willing to try using my funds to purchase looted cultural relics!

Egypt can do it, Bao Zixuan can do it; there is no reason why they can't!

This time, the second son not only represents the country of Iraq, it can be said that he is here for the inheritance of the Arab world!

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "The KGB has always acted in an unscrupulous way; outsiders are really a bit unpredictable! But being able to deal a huge blow to the British is beneficial to us no matter what! There is no need to be too entangled, the most important thing is to live your life well!"

There is no direct answer, but it seems to have given a specific answer; it depends on how the second young master understands it!

The two of them were extremely familiar with each other, and the second young master was not polite. He said directly: "At present, Iraq has contacted the British side about some ancient Babylonian cultural relics; the other side said that we can discuss it."

"It's nothing more than exchanging oil, but what my father values ​​most is the Code of Hammurabi. I don't know what you can do! As long as you can welcome him back, it doesn't hurt to pay some price!"

I am very sorry because my children were trapped in the capital during summer camp and the leading teacher was ill. I urgently purchased a ticket to fly there and will try my best to make up for it in the next few days!
