695 Knowing the Homeland

This is not because 90% of the treasures in the world have spent time in their homes, and the priceless porcelain is just a bowl for him to eat.

That's the experience!

So this is why Lawrence was surprised that the gambling king would send such a young Chen Xiu to identify.

Chen Xiu followed Zhang Haishan and Chai Hongquan to learn treasure appreciation, and with his continuous learning, Bensheng's treasure appreciation ability was no less than that of ordinary experts.

But for antiques such as metal, it is still his shortcoming.

Looking at it with the naked eye alone, he couldn't tell the authenticity of this dragon head, so he had to get started with the ability of the dragon pattern jade pendant.

As soon as his fingers touched the dragon's head, a strong mental power immediately integrated into his body, and at the same time, a piece of information appeared in his mind: "During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the bronze statue of the human body and beast head of the 12 zodiac animals in the Old Summer Palace was 30% intact, and the current market value was 280 million. ”

Chen Xiu was puzzled in his heart: "This dragon head is very well preserved, how can it indicate that the intact degree is free by 30%?"

"Except for the traces of the dragon's head being sawn off from the statue, there are no other hard injuries, and the rust corrosion is not serious, and the integrity is at least 90% or more in terms of quality!"

"By the way, why am I so stupid!"

Chen Xiu reacted suddenly: "The bronze statue of the human body and beast head of the 12 zodiac animals in the Old Summer Palace was originally part of the fountain outside the Haiyan Hall of the Old Summer Palace, and it itself was carried with a body.

In 1860, when the British and French troops burned the Old Summer Palace, the whole bronze statue was too heavy, so these robbers sawed off the head of the beast and took it away.

The dragon jade pendant is evaluated as a whole by the bronze statue, so it is said that the preservation is only 30%.

A statue has only one head, which is naturally 30%. ”

The gambling king's father and son were silent when they saw Chen Xiu holding the dragon head, and thought that he couldn't see it accurately, He Shouheng even whispered: "Brother Chen, if you don't pay attention for a while, I still have a team of experts who appreciate treasures, and I will come over immediately." ”

Even more comfortingly: "This treasure appreciation thing is the most difficult thing to say, back then Mr. Wang Shixiang had a time when he was blind." Let's be cautious and not be ashamed!"

Chen Xiu understood his kindness, and said with a smile: "No need, I take care of this thing!"

Turning his head to He Rongsheng, he said, "He Sheng, there is no doubt that this thing is genuine. ”

even leaned into his ear and whispered: "The market price is about 280 million, and if the price is too much, we won't sell." We can't let the ancestors of these foreign devils rob us of our things, and now their descendants are blatantly robbing us of our money!"

He Rongsheng smiled knowingly and said: "Don't worry, what I want will only be traded at a low price on Ao Island, I don't want to make money for others, no one can make it!"

Chen Xiu suddenly figured out what he meant in his eyes, He Rongsheng relied on his identity as a gambling king, who dared not buy it in Hong Kong and Macao, as long as he spread the news, he wanted the dragon head, who would dare to live impatiently and rob him!

Chen Xiu also laughed heartily all of a sudden, Lawrence on the side saw that the old and the young were both laughing, he was at a loss, which made the gambling king and Chen Xiu laugh even more happily, and Lawrence became more and more overwhelmed.

This auction is not only a dragon's head, but also a lot of antiques and works of art from the East and the West, Chen Xiu naturally did not miss this opportunity to carefully figure out every exhibit in the venue, if it wasn't for the gambling king to bring him over, he really couldn't get in touch with such a world-class boutique at one time.

The identity of the gambling king was there, he accompanied Chen Xiu to wander around the exhibition hall, and the rich people along the way greeted him one after another, and he also took the opportunity to introduce some rich people from Hong Kong and Macao to Chen Xiu.

When these rich people saw that the gambling king was so flattering to a young man, they were also full of curiosity, and they didn't dare to underestimate it, so they handed over their business cards one after another, which made Chen Xiu's contacts in Hong Kong and Macao expand a lot.

"Chen Xiu!"

When Chen Xiu and the gambling king's father and son looked at an abstract painting of Picasso, a familiar voice sounded behind them, and when they looked back, they saw who it was not Gong Daoming.

It's just that at this time he was isolated from the gambling king's bodyguards.

When he met his old acquaintance in a foreign country, Chen Xiu was also very surprised, and it was full of surprises.

"Is this your friend?" asked He Shouheng on the side.

"Yes, very good friend!"

As soon as He Shouheng waved his hand, the bodyguard let Gong Daoming come over, and Chen Xiu gave him a big hug.

"Gong Shao, why did you come to Ao Island too?"

"Sotheby's is not one of the best art auctions in the world, so I came here to learn from the advanced experience of others so that I can apply it to our auction. ”

He Shouheng on the side said strangely: "Brother Chen, you also have an auction house, why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Chen Xiu scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "My small auction house can be compared with yours, and I haven't taken care of the affairs of the auction house, all because of this palace Daoming palace Shao, I am a hands-off shopkeeper!"

He even took the opportunity to introduce Gong Daoming to the gambling king's father and son.

"It turned out to be the grandson of the palace doctor, how is your grandfather doing lately?" He Rongsheng asked with a smile.

Gong Daoming was very surprised, and he didn't expect that the famous gambling king still knew his grandfather.

Chen Xiu vaguely guessed that Ou Jianhua was sentenced to death by Western medicine five years ago, and Gong Changchun insisted on prolonging his life until now with his superb medical skills.

It is impossible for the rich in Hong Kong and Macao not to know about this, after all, what the rich are most afraid of is birth, old age, sickness and death, and even rich people cannot avoid birth, old age, sickness and death.

It is impossible not to make friends with a divine doctor like Gong Changchun, who has super medical skills.

"Grandpa is in good health, and he has only recently traveled with Chen Xiu......"

Gong Daoming reacted suddenly, he contacted the old man before and said that he was traveling and climbing the mountain with Chen Xiu and Ye Hongfei, but now Chen Xiu came to Hong Kong Island and disappeared his old man.

"Chen Xiu, where is my grandfather?"

"It's a long story, I'll talk to you about it later. I'll introduce you to a colleague first. ”

Chen Xiu introduced He Shouheng and said: "This is the famous Dragon King, who has set up a god-killing auction house in Hong Kong and Macao, which is much more bullish than our monk auction house.

I think you have to learn from the experience of the auction house, learn from the dragon king, and move his set to our auction house. ”

Chen Xiu deliberately only introduced the identity of He Shouheng Dragon King, but did not say that he was the son of the gambling king, which was also out of respect for his friends.

Through last night's conversation, he knew that He Shouheng actually paid more attention to his identity as the dragon king, rather than the son of the gambling king.

The reason why he manages the casino is just to prove his ability to the gambling king.

He Shouheng understood what Chen Xiu meant, and his heart was also moved, and he thought to himself: "He really understands my friend best!"
