Chapter 578: Buddha's Feet

Not many people can understand the mood of the old man, he has been on the road of entrepreneurship since the beginning of reform and opening up, from the net worth is quite rich, to the end of the downfall can not afford to pay the rent.

This time, if he still failed, he could only go out and set up a stall.

He has been failing, and he is already a little numb. In fact, he just held his breath and wanted those who didn't understand him to see the back of his success.

In fact, this venture can be regarded as a failure. Because this bookshelf was not recycled by him at all, but someone was originally here, and he picked up a leak, just luck.

But the value of millions is undoubtedly a huge encouragement for him.

With this money, he feels that he can go a little further on the road of entrepreneurship.

"Can you shoot more than a million?" he couldn't help but confirm again.

Hu Yang nodded: "Old brother, I don't plan to make a deal with you, so there is no need to lie to you." Therefore, it is best to take this bookshelf to a better auction house.

And, there's another good thing in your store. ”

The old man raised his head suddenly, staring at Hu Yang with a fiery gaze: "What else?"

Not only him, Andy and others, but also the audience in the live broadcast room were stunned. Just now, didn't Brother Hu pour cold water on all the antiques, calligraphy and paintings that others recycled?

Don't......

I saw that Hu Yang walked three or four steps to the side, and then took out something from the garbage that had been sorted.

Everyone looked at it, it was a piece of brass. That's right, a piece of brass. It looks like a lotus base, and the sculpture on it seems to have been forcibly broken, leaving only the sole of the foot.

This kind of defective product, even if it is an antique, is probably not worth much, right?

Everyone speculated that it could be a brass Buddha statue or something, but it was destroyed, and only this little bit remained.

"This thing is also valuable?" the old man himself felt a little embarrassed, and a little incredible.

After all, whoever looks at this thing doesn't think it's a treasure, right? It's really a tattered piece, it's not a work of art at all, and even the handicraft is very reluctant.

Hu Yang suddenly smiled: "You must think that this is a defective product, right? In fact, it is like this, and it is not damaged." ”

Belch?

A large group of people immediately looked at each other, and they really couldn't understand who would make such a work of art? It doesn't look like a Chinese style, right? China, especially in ancient times, rarely said anything about mutilated beauty.

"Is it like a famous sculpture without hands?" someone asked.

Hu Yang looked at Brother Yu: "Brother Yu, you should know, right? In the jade carving, there seems to be a Buddha's foot pendant or something." ”

Brother Yu smiled: "Well, the Buddha's feet can be homophonized with the Buddha, so sometimes a Buddha's foot represents a Buddha." This is not a crippled beauty, that thing is only played by Westerners, we in China, we generally like all kinds of homophony, pay attention to good intentions and so on. ”

Hearing this explanation, everyone suddenly realized, I see!

"Then we can look at it again and divide it into two parts: the Buddha's feet and the rosette.

Rosette, everyone must be familiar with it. The lotus flower is a sacred relic of Buddhism, and the big Buddhas who generally have a bit of status have lotus seats. Like the Buddha, his rosette is the twelve-rank one. And the Guanyin that everyone is familiar with is usually only five or six lotus seats.

This one, a total of ten products, in mythology, can be said to be second only to the existence of the highest Buddha, and can also be named Buddha. After all, Buddhism, the Buddha is also a lot.

Look at the Buddha's feet again, on the instep, there is also a Buddha character. It's a bit of a funny word, and next to the single person, it makes it look like a person bending over to give a gift. In ancient times, this was more unusual. Populus noted some noteworthy details.

Brother Yu took it in his hand and was ready to watch it, but as soon as he got started, he felt that it was wrong.

"It's not like brass. ”

When the old man heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's copper, I won't be mistaken." ”

There is a lot of rotten copper and rotten iron, and you can almost tell whether it is copper at a glance, and you can roughly see how high the copper content is. This point of self-confidence, the old man thinks that he still has it.

But Hu Yang suddenly spoke: "Well, it's not exactly copper, it's just that the surface is plated with copper." That's what I want to say. We can often see what gilt works, which was too common in ancient times, especially all kinds of Buddha statues, as the so-called people rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold.

However, this one is very peculiar, it is Jindu copper. If you look at the Buddha character that has been carved into it, is the color a little brighter?

This is not normal, the recessed part, logically speaking, the light must not be so good, in everyone's opinion, it must be a little dim. However, the golden light of this Buddha character is even brighter, and it is obviously gold, and the copper on the surface has been carved off, revealing the gold inside.

So, if nothing else, this piece of gold is worth a lot of money!"

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly took it over and observed it carefully. He knows very well how much there is a difference between copper and gold.

Brother Yu smiled: "I just said, I don't feel the weight right." ”

He is also sensitive to weight, and because he often holds things in his hands, he can generally feel them. For those who work in the carving industry, this aspect of the touch will indeed be a little stronger.

The old man completely admired these two, and the degree of carefulness of the people was really not comparable to him. Moreover, he is also very knowledgeable, this is a real treasure expert, right?

At this point, he has also understood that he is really not suitable for playing antiques.

He decided that after getting the capital this time, he would make good use of it and make a good investment, not like before, without a little planning, and when he saw what was making money, he would get into it with enthusiasm, and as a result, he hit his head and bleed, which was a bit miserable.

"Isn't it so valuable to be copper-clad gold, shall I find someone to get rid of this layer of copper?" he asked.

Hu Yang shook his head: "Don't, it's still the previous sentence, you take it to a reliable auction house for auction." If you melt the copper and take out the gold inside, it will inevitably damage the statue itself, and you will really have to sell it for gold.

This whole artwork, if it is put up for auction, its value is also about one million, or even higher. Think about it, can you sell it for so much money just by selling gold?"

The old man wiped his sweat, but fortunately he asked. Otherwise, if you really do what you think, you will lose a lot. This piece, even if it is all gold, four or five hundred thousand will be in the sky, and it will not be able to buy one million at all, which is nearly twice as bad.

"Thank you, thank you!" the old man sincerely thanked.

Originally, he beckoned people to come in and buy things, but when people saw that they were so miserable, they were embarrassed to pick up the leaks, so they simply cheapened him and fulfilled him.

If someone else comes, he will definitely get rid of it quietly, so he doesn't care about the rest!
