Chapter 1170: Coral Tree
The box contained a large piece of coral, about two feet tall.
This coral is ruddy, crystal clear, and dazzling, and what is especially remarkable is that it looks like a real tree.
Even people who don't know how to do it can know when they see this large coral that this is a very precious thing and is invaluable.
"Deep-sea red coral, it is not easy to collect, especially to preserve it completely, this thing is worth almost 80-100 times that of gold. ”
Guo Baoli introduced.
He is right, red coral itself has quite a good beauty function, and it is also one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, and it is also a first-class protected organic gem listed as a national treasure by the state, and its value is indeed quite high.
The price of top-quality red coral is almost 15,000 to 20,000 yuan, which is more expensive than all gold and jade.
However, this is only the price, and it does not mean that you can buy red coral with so much money.
This thing cannot be found in more than 99% of the jewelry stores in China.
Most Chinese people have never had the opportunity to see this thing with their own eyes in their lives.
However, the people present are not ordinary people, whether it is the Zhang family or the Liu family, they are all big families, and it would be too much to say that they have never seen red coral.
It's just that neither Zhang Yunling nor Liu Qian have ever seen such a big coral! This is also too big, they are more than two feet tall, and such a big one is worth much! Liu Qian's eyes lit up, and it was obvious that this gift made her very satisfied.
"Yunling, you are so good to me, you are willing to give such a precious gift!"
She looked full of happiness on her face.
"That's nature!"
Zhang Yunling's performance is very calm, he is the son of the Zhang family, how can he show that he has never seen the world?
However, as he spoke, he also glanced at Liu Yun secretly, wanting to see if this woman was shocked by him.
It's a pity that Liu Yun's reaction was not very strong.
Maybe you don't know the value of this thing, right?
"It is recorded in ancient books that during the Western Jin Dynasty, Shi Chong and Wang Kai fought for wealth, Wang Kai was the emperor's uncle, and he got a coral tree from the emperor and wanted to overwhelm Shi Chong.
Zhang Yunling asked knowingly.
He just wanted Liu Yun to understand how precious this treasure was.
This is a peerless treasure that can be treasured by the emperor in ancient times!" "That's right, Zhang Shao is really well-informed, Wang Kai borrowed it from the emperor at that time, it is this kind of coral tree, according to historical records, it should be about the same size as this one!"
Guo Baoli nodded very cooperatively.
Of course, he is willing to cooperate with the higher the value of this treasure, the better, anyway, he does not suffer, the higher the value of the thing, and when he asks for money, the more he can get.
"It's just a pity that even with this coral tree, Wang Kai couldn't beat Shi Chong. ”
At this time, Lu Fan, who had been silent, suddenly interjected.
Shi Chong knocked down Wang Kai's coral tree, and then took out more than a dozen coral trees, each of which was bigger than Wang Kai's. ”
Many people have heard this story, and if others can tell it, of course he can tell it.
"The latter ones are likely to have been invented by later generations, and in fact, with the current harvesting technology, it is difficult to completely pick such a large coral tree, let alone nearly 2,000 years ago!
Zhang Yunling said unhappily.
He was pretending to be forced, but he was disturbed, of course he would be a little unhappy.
"Yes, of course, there is no problem with what Zhang Shao said, in fact, I also have some doubts about the authenticity of this story. ”
Guo Baoli naturally would not fail to cheer Zhang Yunling.
After all, this one is a buyer for a while, and whether he can give a satisfactory price depends on his meaning.
"That's interesting, the same story, the first half is true, but the second half is made up. ”
Lu Fan smiled and did not continue to speak.
However, Zhang Yunling and Guo Baoli's faces are not very good-looking.
Originally, they were very proud to take out this thing, but when this kid said this, it was as if there was something better than theirs, and it seemed that they were a little stingy.
However, such a large coral tree is already the limit that Guo Baoli can get, and he really can't find a bigger one.
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's already very good for such a big coral tree to be used as a birthday gift!"
Liu Yun hurriedly played a round.
No matter what others thought, she didn't want to make the scene too embarrassing.
Moreover, this antique shop is quite large, and there are a lot of things, and there will be a lot of real things.
So Liu Yun has a very kind of desire to buy an antique here as a birthday gift for tomorrow's grandmother.
Such an idea made her reluctant to let the owner of the antique shop get off the stage too much.
"That's not, this is a treasure worth tens of millions or more, of course it's the best birthday gift, but sister, what are you going to give to grandma tomorrow?"
Liu Qian asked with a sneer.
"I'm not ready yet, and now that I'm here, I'm just going to pick one too. ”
Liu Yun said generously.
"Miss Liu, although I choose, I don't dare to say anything else, but in terms of antiques, my store is definitely the most complete one in the entire capital, what you want, I have it here, even if I don't have it, I will definitely be able to find a way to help you get it!"
Guo Baoli patted his chest.
He didn't talk nonsense, after all, this coral tree was something he didn't have here, but he managed to get it.
"Then I'll just hang out. ”
Liu Yun nodded, and planned to go to the front to have a look.
Although there is a coral tree in it, it is already a gift from someone else, and she wants to choose, of course, she has to go to the front.
"Since you want to shop, let's go together, it just so happens that our account can also wait for a while Sister Liu Yun to finish buying and settle together. ”
Zhang Yunling also immediately followed, and he also showed that he wanted to help pay the bill.
Liu Qian looked a little surprised, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, she was able to keep Zhang Yunling by not interfering with any of his actions, including flirting with other women in front of her.
What's more, she already had the idea of betraying Liu Yun in her heart.
"Sister, don't worry, let's take a look with you, let me tell you, Yunling is a big expert in this area, and with him helping you palm your eyes, you can ensure that you won't be blind." ”
Liu Qian simply started assisting.
"That's not necessary, we can judge for ourselves, we don't need anyone to help us. ”
At this time, Lu Fan appeared again, standing between Liu Yun and Zhang Yunling.
