Chapter 1441: The Origin of the Yuanyang Pot
The two people had mismatched tempers, and they were already at odds with each other at the treasure fight, and they still expected Hoxha to receive him.
He didn’t even call Hoxha over to eat.
Fan Jian glanced around, his eyes fell on Lin Ran, and said calmly: "Uncle Huo, I heard that your family suffered this disaster, mainly because someone provoked the Lei family? How is their family now? Do you want us to help? Do you deal with it?"
What a fan, Fan Jian actually wanted to draw the fire onto Lin Ran, either openly or covertly.
The whole thing has something to do with him. Even if he doesn't come, the Lei family will take the opportunity to cause trouble at this birthday party.
The main reason is that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. In their view, the dividends in the Nanling market are about to end, and they want to monopolize the market, so they came up with such a move.
It's just that someone took advantage of him later and a lose-lose situation emerged, with the Lei family losing even more miserably.
"You can't say that, Mr. Lin has helped my family a lot." Mr. Huo would not be provoked by him, but cleverly led the topic to another matter, "I really want to thank nephew Fan for coming to Nanling." Look at me, why don’t you stay at my house for a few more days and I’ll arrange for someone to take you around Nanling!”
"No need." Fan Jian was also selfish. He originally planned to give Lin Ran a taste of the golden pumpkin soup and sturgeon cakes, but he ate them all by himself. He wiped his mouth and said, "Actually, I I came here to do some errands.”
Of course I knew he was here to do something, I just wanted to know what he was here for.
Lin Ran squinted his eyes and looked at Fan Jian. In fact, he had already explained his purpose when he entered the door.
Talk about tracking down a gang that forges cultural relics.
It is true that the Fan family does have a business in the antiques industry, but their job is different from Tianlefang. They only provide goods to these antique cities.
I don’t know where they got a lot of antiques from. Every antique city that opens has to buy some goods from their family.
The quality of the goods varies, but they are basically genuine.
So no matter where an antique city opens, their family can make some money.
Only with basic goods can antique shops develop.
However, for ordinary people, the Fan family's most important job is to develop commercial real estate.
Especially at the beginning of the 80s, with the development of international logistics and domestic trade, the bosses gradually had more money. In addition, the people had the habit of saving money, and a prosperous scene suddenly appeared.
As the saying goes, water flows to low places, and people go to high places.
After they have money, people in rural areas think about life in the city, with busy traffic and feasting.
They are willing to use their savings to buy real estate in the city.
As people's willingness to buy houses increases, more and more real estate and construction companies join in, and the Fan family and the Huo family are both beneficiaries.
So for ordinary people, the main business of the Fan family and the Huo family is real estate, but they don't know that they both made their fortunes from antiques.
"Because our family discovered a counterfeiting gang, and I'm here to track down their whereabouts." Fan Jian threw the tissue on the ground.
"Antique counterfeiting gang?" Mr. Huo slapped the table, "This is unreasonable. Someone dares to openly sell fake antiques in Nanling. If Huo is caught, Huo will definitely be rude!"
"That's really great." Fan Jian obviously meant something, and showed a half-smiling expression.
Then he continued: "To tell you the truth, a considerable number of high-end imitations have flowed into Nanling City and are walking around in various markets. You'd better pay attention to the recent transactions on the antique street. You should be able to find a lot of fakes."
His words were frivolous, as if he had already found out his whereabouts.
If what he said is true, the Nanling antique market will indeed be in an unstable situation.
Lin Ran didn't speak, but drank tea silently.
He was not qualified to investigate the counterfeiting of antiques.
But he couldn't figure out what this had to do with the Fan family. Could it be that all the fraud was in his family's name?
But it can be seen that Fan Jian seems to be determined to win in handling this matter.
"Huo will try his best." Mr. Huo said, "Nephew Fan, don't worry, I will send someone to the antique street tomorrow to summon all the bosses there to ask for details."
"No need." Fan Jian stood up and said with a smile, "Isn't there just one ready-made here?"
Hongda was stunned. Originally, this cocktail party had nothing to do with him, but he didn't expect the topic to be brought to him now.
He quickly explained: "Master Fan, there is a misunderstanding. We also collected it from Yangzhou."
According to his understanding, he is just a buyer and a victim.
Unexpectedly, the responsibility was put on him.
If the Fan family wants to make things difficult for him, his family's fortune will not last long.
I'm afraid that in a few months, the antique empire that I finally won will be destroyed.
"Really?? Do you dare to say that you just took it over?" Fan Jian stared at Hongda coldly, "Didn't you reach some kind of agreement with him?"
It seems that he has a lot of clues in his hands, and now he is here to investigate.
Nanling is really a troubled time. I originally came here to attend a birthday banquet, but unexpectedly I witnessed one bloody storm here.
"Tell me honestly, how many things did you buy from him? How much flowed into the market! It's best to tell the truth!" Fan Jian turned his back on customers and questioned Hongda step by step.
After coming here for a long time, Hongda managed to say a word.
"I actually don't know how many pieces there are specifically. However, I only have two pieces in my hand."
"You?" Master Huo obviously regarded Hong Da as a friend. Lin Ran still remembered that at the banquet, Hong Da was one of the few people who stood up to maintain the Huo family's face. It was obvious at that time that his relationship with Master Huo was unusual.
When I called Lin Ran here today, Lin Ran was still confused.
It felt like at first I just wanted to give Lin Ran a surprise, tell him that Jiang Hua's granddaughter was also present, and introduce him to Hong Da and Deng Yunjin, so that he could do business here in the future.
But I didn't expect to witness a big drama.
When Hongda saw Mr. Huo getting angry, he immediately put down his chopsticks, stood up, lowered his head and said, "Mr. Huo, in fact, our main business in Hongkelou is the restaurant business, and we just search for antiques."
"At that time, a middle-aged man walked into our hotel carrying a snakeskin bag."
"Looking at the appearance of the middle-aged man, the manager thought he was a migrant worker who came here to find a job, and wanted to persuade him not to eat here because he couldn't afford the consumption here."
"I didn't expect that the middle-aged man actually knew about Hongkelou's secret business and told the manager directly that he had some good goods and hoped to meet someone who could make the decision."
"Of course the manager didn't take it seriously and wanted to kick him out directly."
"I didn't expect that at this time, he directly took out the Yuanyang Pot."
