Chapter 705 A Brief Taste of Fourteen Generations
Facing the proud look on Miyamoto Genichi's face, there was no trace of teasing on Shi Lei's face.
He just looked at Miyamoto Genichi calmly and said, "I apologize for what I just said, because at least one of Mr. Miyamoto's words was right."
Miyamoto Genichi looked at Shi Lei with confusion, feeling that this young man was trying to make things difficult so that he could stand in a more advantageous position.
But the calmness and calmness shown by Shi Lei made Miyamoto Xuanyi doubt his conclusion.
Shi Lei added: "Mr. Miyamoto said that I went to Okinawa to get this painting. This is correct, but the experience was not what Mr. Miyamoto thought. I brought this painting from China. Of course, it was difficult to go through formal channels, so I had to use some irregular channels. There are many islands in Okinawa, which was very convenient for me to meet the ship that escorted this painting into the country. I won’t go into more details, it’s unnecessary. Right? Mr. Miyamoto?"
Miyamoto Xuan's eyes flickered, obviously not believing Shi Lei's words.
Shi Lei continued: "In fact, I don't care at all whether Mr. Miyamoto believes what I say. But I think Mr. Miyamoto will soon realize that my words are not deceptive. Because, in fact, I don't want Mr. Miyamoto to The exchange between us was made public. Anyway, the Five Stars and Twenty-eight Constellations True Form Picture was originally Mr. Miyamoto’s private collection, but it was just borrowed from the name of the Osaka Municipal Museum of Art. Mr. Miyamoto usually keeps this painting by himself. Painted. Unless it is a matter of national concern, even the Japanese government cannot ask Mr. Miyamoto to take out this painting. At least, I do not need to borrow any name to take this painting out of Japan. I Naturally, I have my own channels. What I can guarantee is that I will not announce this matter until Mr. Miyamoto takes the initiative to disclose the exchanged information. I simply don’t want too many people to know about this matter. "
Miyamoto Xuanyi stared at Shi Lei, trying to tell whether his words were true.
"Mr. Miyamoto, you don't have to believe it. Anyway, if I announce this matter before Mr. Miyamoto, you can deny it. And if I do what Mr. Miyamoto guessed before, I will be in a dilemma. Time. When the time comes, I won’t even be able to take away this true picture of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations. Wouldn’t this be more beneficial to Mr. Miyamoto?”
Miyamoto Genichi secretly thought that this was the truth. He even thought about it. After the exchange with Shi Lei, he immediately called the police and said that his home was stolen and the missing item was the true shape map of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations.
But this is not easy to operate, especially since Liu Zhen obviously knows about the transaction between Shi Lei and him. Once he does this, it will cause serious incidents in cultural exchanges between China and Japan. Miyamoto Genichi may not be responsible for this. Affordable.
But if Shi Lei announces this matter, Miyamoto Xuan will deny it, and then Shi Lei will really become a thief who steals cultural relics.
"I still can't figure out why Shi Sang used the more valuable statue of Wang Youjun in exchange for the true shape map of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations..."
Shi Lei sighed, smiled regretfully, and said: "Since Mr. Miyamoto always questions my sincerity, he is reluctant to part with the Five Stars and Twenty-eight Constellations true shape map, and always wants to get the statue of Wang Youjun, I can only say sorry, look Our exchange cannot be achieved. Maybe this true picture of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations is really Zhang Sengyao's original work."
After saying that, Shi Lei finally stood up, bent down and picked up the painting tube. After putting it on his back, he turned around and bowed deeply to Miyamoto Genichi, saying: "Well, Mr. Miyamoto, I'm sorry to bother you." After that, he lifted his legs to leave.
Miyamoto Genichi finally lost his temper. As for the five-star and twenty-eight constellations that he had obtained twenty or thirty years ago, he knew very well that it could never be the authentic work of Zhang Sengyao, although he was very interested in studying Zhang Sengyao's works. It helps, but the subtleties can still clearly feel that this work is more like Wu Daozi than Zhang Sengyao. Liang Lingzhan was originally most famous for imitating Wu Daozi.
He shouted: "Shi Sang, wait a minute."
Shi Lei did not stop, but said with a smile: "Mr. Miyamoto doesn't need to stay, that's it."
"There is an old saying in China, which is to take care of things as they come. Shi Sang allowed me to see the statue of Wang Youjun, and at least gave me a chance to treat Shi Sang to dinner. There are some fourteenth-generation Longquan at home. I don't know if Shi Sang is willing to accompany him. How many glasses of old-fashioned food would you like?"
Shi Lei then stopped pulling the wooden door, turned around and said, "Mr. Miyamoto, there is really no need to be polite..."
"I need time, and I need to ask a few trustworthy people to identify the authenticity of the painting in your hand."
Shi Lei looked at Miyamoto Genichi and said, "Mr. Miyamoto, do you mean that the exchange can be carried out?"
Miyamoto Xuan nodded and said: "If it is confirmed that the painting in Shi Sang's hand is indeed authentic."
Shi Lei then returned to his original position, sat down slowly, and said, "It's up to you."
It was indeed time for dinner. Shi Lei called Sun Yiyi and said that he would not be able to go back until later and asked Sun Yiyi to eat by herself.
Then, Miyamoto Genichi really prepared an exquisite Japanese meal for Shi Lei, and really brought out the 14th generation Longquan, known as the Romanée-Conti in the sake world.
Shi Lei stopped after a brief taste.
After the meal, a few people came and they brought a complete set of instruments.
For a painting like this, no amount of caution is too cautious.
In front of Shi Lei, after several hours of research and identification, everyone gave the answer to the authenticity, and Shi Lei finally let go of his hanging heart. It seems that the level of the Eye of Darkness is indeed unparalleled in the world. Whether it is modern identification instruments or these experienced naked eyes, they have been perfectly deceived.
If there is a pair of eyes in this world that will not be deceived, it is Shi Lei after using the identification card.
After sending away the appraisal experts, Miyamoto Kenji said to Shi Lei: "I'm sorry, Shi Sang, for wasting so much of your time. I think we can exchange now."
Shi Lei nodded calmly, not showing any joy or boredom, but calmly waiting for Miyamoto Kenichi to take out the true form diagram of the Five Stars and Twenty-Eight Constellations.
Of course, the Japanese cannot be easily trusted. Shi Lei must use the appraisal card once. Fortunately, every time he accepts a black card task, the number of times the appraisal card can be used will increase by three times.
After using it this time, Shi Lei still has three chances to use the identification card.
After calling up the appraisal card in his mind, Shi Lei decided to use it. The true shape diagram of the Five Stars and Twenty-Eight Constellations placed in front of him, a layer of hazy brilliance immediately appeared on the entire silk surface.
Of course, only Shi Lei could see this layer of brilliance. The true shape of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations in Miyamoto Xuan's eyes was still the same as before.
From the color, we can confirm that this is indeed a cultural relic from the Tang Dynasty, and the time can be accurate to the years when Wu Daozi was alive. Based on the intensity of the light, Shi Lei easily judged that the value of this painting was already the highest among all the cultural relics he had ever seen. It's hard to say how much it's worth specifically, but at least it's several times or even ten times more than the Ming Wanli blue and white porcelain that Shi Lei got from Huo Chengdong.
With this guarantee, Shi Lei was convinced that the true shape of the five stars and twenty-eight constellations was undoubtedly authentic. The value of Liang Lingzhan's copying is not up to this level. It seems that Quan Zhan is right. This painting is really the original work of Wu Daozi.
