Yang Fei looked at the introduction of the booklet, it was a Qianlong jade seal.

"Qianlong Jade Seal?" Yang Fei said, "Really?"

Fu Heng said: "This is not the legendary jade seal of the country, but the seal used by Qianlong." Because it was used by the emperor, it was called the jade seal. The jade seal refers specifically to the emperor's jade seal and is a symbol of supreme power. Ancient seals and seals were commonly known as gold or jade. The seal began in the Zhou Dynasty, and in the Qin Dynasty, there was a distinction between the seal and the seal, and the seal used by the emperor was called the seal, and the seal used by the subjects could only be called the seal. ”

Yang Fei couldn't help but wonder: "The four words of Qianlong jade seal are too deceptive! When I saw it for the first time, I thought it was a jade seal of the country!"

Fu Heng said: "Then I won't deliberately emphasize the word 'Qianlong'." ”

Yang Fei nodded and asked, "Mr. Fu, how much is this seal worth?"

Fu Heng said: "Millions are still worth it." ”

Yang Fei took a closer look at the description of this lot and muttered: "Two centimeters high, 4.5 centimeters long, that's very small!"

Fu Heng smiled: "This can't be measured by size. A lot of cultural toys are not worth more money the bigger. This seal, with the Qianlong Imperial Study for treasure appreciation, if I guess correctly, this should be snatched from the Old Summer Palace when the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded China. ”

Yang Fei was moved: "The lost national treasure of the Old Summer Palace?"

Fu Heng said: "It should be, but it was circulated later, and after the hands of several collectors, this time I finally had the opportunity to return to China for auction." Don't miss the opportunity, and the loss will not come again. ”

Yang Fei nodded slowly: "Okay, then I'll pay attention." Mr. Fu, are there any other artifacts worth photographing?"

Fu Heng opened the booklet, pointed it out to Yang Fei, and explained from the side what are the things worth photographing.

Yang Fei said: "Is there only this one of the lost treasures in the Old Summer Palace?"

Fu Heng let out a long sigh and said: "The Old Summer Palace! This splendid treasure that was once at the pinnacle of world culture and art has become the soul of the iron hooves of the empire due to the selfish desires of the great powers. There are countless lost and damaged cultural relics in the Old Summer Palace. ”

Yang Fei said: "I made a mistake, I'm asking, among the antiques and cultural relics in this auction, is this only one the treasure that was robbed of the Old Summer Palace?"

Fu Heng said: "Yes." It is rare for such a treasure to enter the circulation of auction houses. Most of them have been treasured by foreign collectors and museums. I once visited the British Museum in London, England, where there is a collection of "Female Historical Portraits", which is a painting by Gu Kaizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and is one of the greatest works in the history of painting in China! The work depicts the deeds of female fans, including the story of Feng Yuan in the Han Dynasty who defended the bear and protected the Yuan Emperor of the Han Dynasty. When I went to see it, due to the lack of preservation knowledge of the museum staff, the scroll fell off the slag, and it was cut off from the waist. ”

Yang Fei couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

Fu Heng said: "Boss, you don't believe my words?"

Yang Fei said: "Of course I believe it. The reason why I sneered was to laugh at the shallow opinions of some people. The catastrophe of the invasion of China, countless cultural treasures have been looted and scattered overseas, and some Chinese people actually feel that these national treasures can be collected by foreigners, which is the luck of these national treasures!"

When Fu Heng heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head again and again: "Those who insist on seeing this must be ignorant! Could it be that it is also their honor for their wives and daughters to be taken into slavery by the Yi people? Not much else, just talking about calligraphy and painting works, where do foreigners know how to maintain and maintain our Chinese paintings? China's craftsmen and craftsmen have a history of protection and restoration of cultural relics for thousands of years, and they have been inherited in an orderly manner, how can they be compared with foreigners?"

The more he spoke, the more heartbroken he became: "If that 'Female Historian's Picture' is in our country, it will definitely be restored as before! You must know that there are many restoration masters in China!"

Yang Fei said: "Don't say that the cultural relics restoration experts in the Forbidden City, it is Mr. Fu, you are also a leader!"

Fu Heng said: "It's a pity, we have empty repair skills, but we can't repair the female history map! I hope that in my lifetime, I can have this honor! Otherwise, I can only learn from Lu You, write the restoration day of the female history record, and the family sacrifice has not forgotten the last words of Nai Weng!"

When Yang Fei heard this, he wanted to laugh but couldn't, and said, "Mr. Fu, after the museum is built, I want to ask you to help find the lost cultural relics of my country all over the world, and I want to buy them back and display them in our museum." ”

Fu Heng said: "What Mr. Yang said, but is it true?"

Yang Fei said: "There is no lie. ”

Fu Heng knelt down to Yang Fei and said, "Boss, thank you!"

Yang Fei said: "I'm not helping you do things, what are you thanking me for?"

Fu Heng said: "I am an antique person, you can fulfill my ambition that I can't do, and you deserve my thanks." ”

Yang Fei said: "However, I'm afraid that those collectors may not be willing to sell!"

At this time, the host of the auction announced that the auction had officially begun.

This auction is jointly launched by the Cultural Relics Exchange Center and Christie's auction house.

Christie's is one of the world's leading art auction houses, with a total annual turnover of billions of dollars.

Yang Fei couldn't even look at the few antiques that had just been auctioned.

It's just to warm up, and of course there's nothing good about it.

With more than half of the auction, the auctioned objects gradually became noble, and the prices also rose.

Gao Qin took a fancy to a few antiques, but before shooting, she had to ask Fu Heng first, and Fu Heng said that it was okay to shoot, so she raised her card.

She is a very assertive and individual person, and she must take the lot she fancies, unless someone fights her to the end, and the price is beyond her ability, she will give up.

The price of Gao Qin's favorite lot is not too high, and he auctioned five pieces, and the total price is only a few hundred thousand.

Yang Fei kept his composure, and he only photographed the few things that Fu Heng suggested to shoot.

The auctioneer finally reported the lot number of the Qianlong jade seal!

Yang Fei paid attention when he heard it.

The whole audience was also in high spirits, and some even stood up to watch the small Qianlong jade seal.

The appearance of Qianlong's jade seal sparked a discussion.

Gao Qin said in a low voice: "Mr. Yang, this can't be fake, right?

Yang Fei smiled but did not answer.

Gao Qin didn't hear the conversation between him and Fu Heng about this seal just now.

Gao Qin asked, "What do you think?"

Yang Fei said: "This is a seal, it may have been used by Qianlong! ”

Gao Qin said: "I'll just say! Why is the jade seal of the country so small? Isn't that coaxing people?"

Yang Fei smiled.

Sure enough, the host began to detail the lot.

Exactly the same as what Fu Heng just said, the whole jade seal is 2 cm high, 4.5 cm long, dark green as a whole, and engraved with the words "Imperial Study Treasure Appreciation".

Hearing that these six words were engraved, many people let out a long "oh-" sound, and finally figured out what this "jade seal" was.

Someone said, "It turned out to be a book stamp! I don't know if it's true or not! If it's cheap, let's buy it and play with it!"

Another person said: "If you can be on this auction, then you don't have to worry about the authenticity." ”

The man from before sneered and said, "Hehe, that's not necessarily, the auction house must be a real treasure?"

At this time, the host announced: The starting price of Qianlong jade seal is 1 million, and the card is added to 50,000.
