Chapter 10 Sky-high snuff bottles!
Zheng Shaoqiu didn't answer his question, but slowly walked to the stall owner Liu Sandao: "This snuffbox ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
I saw Boss Chen hurriedly take two steps forward, slapped Liu Sandao's head, and said point-in-cheek: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and wrap up Master Zheng!"
Liu Sandao's face changed, he nodded resignedly, and quickly put the mud-stained snuff box carefully into a box.
Seeing this, Boss Chen nodded with satisfaction, then his eyes rolled slightly, and he lowered his posture a little and said: "Oh, Master Zheng, what I did just now was not authentic, I am a bad person, you must not be like me." ”
Seeing that the other party did not react at all, his heart sank, and he quickly said with a flattering face: "I bought this snuffbox for you, which is considered a previous apology, if you still have anything to look at, just ask." ”
When Lin Xiaoyue saw the scene in front of her, she blinked her beautiful eyes and did not slow down.
was still aggressive before, why is it like a follower now, nodding his head......
And he said all the good things......
Zheng Shaoqiu took the jujube red wooden box and said coldly: "No." ”
He Jinyin had already guessed what his nephew was thinking, and hurriedly took two steps forward, took out a stack of red banknotes, and handed it to Liu Sandao: "I will pay for this snuffbox selected by Master Zheng!"
"I'll come, I'll come. "How dare Boss Chen let his uncle add money for him, and it's only a thousand yuan, which is not worth mentioning to him.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the scene in front of her blankly.
This rush to pay is really new.
It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, Zheng Shaoqiu couldn't resist the uncle and nephew after all, nodded and reluctantly agreed.
"Good, good. Boss Chen's face had a joy that could not be concealed: "We don't know each other today, if Master Zheng needs help in the future, just open your mouth, if I say the word 'no', I won't be a gentleman!"
He Jinyin stroked his beard with satisfaction and smiled, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Master Zheng, since you can see my nephew's problem, there must be a way to heal it, you can see ......."
At this point, the words stopped, but the meaning of the intention was already very obvious.
Zheng Shaoqiu raised his head when he heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "This matter is easy to say, but difficult to say. ”
"Oh?" He Jinyin raised his eyebrows and said cautiously, "What do you mean by that?"
"Codonopsis, astragalus, turtle plate, deer horn gum, cuttlefish bones, fry in water, serve warm, twice a day. Zheng Shaoqiu paused, and then said: "In addition, I have to restrain my desires, at least for half a month, I don't know if he can hold on." ”
"I can persevere, I can persevere. Boss Chen nodded like a chicken pecking rice, how well-behaved and well-behaved he was, it was just like before.
He Jinyin bowed again: "Thank you Master Zheng, Gao Feng Liangjie, happy and convinced!"
Zheng Shaoqiu nodded slightly, and then without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and left directly.
Lin Xiaoyue had a stomach full of questions: How do you know so many antique secret techniques? Why are you so skilled, you can't see it at all? You can also do Chinese medicine? I was so fierce to you before, you won't hold a grudge against me, right?
But when the words came to his lips, after seeing the other party's ancient and waveless eyes, he swallowed it back.
I don't know why, but she has a very strange feeling now.
It seems that in front of this door-to-door son-in-law, he is actually a little lacking in confidence......
You must know that her status in the Lin family is respected, and she has always been held in the palm of her hand and belongs to the pearl of her palm.
And the other party is just an unwelcome son-in-law......
Throwing these complicated thoughts out of her mind, seeing that Zheng Shaoqiu had already walked a few meters away, she hurriedly trotted two steps to catch up.
At this moment, Liu Sandao suddenly thought of something, his eyes purred, and he asked loudly, "Master Zheng, what is the origin of this snuff bottle?"
Zheng Shaoqiu said without looking back when he heard this: "Cixi, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Yirong, the prince of the country!"
Airplanes!
Looking at the other party's gradually disappearing figure, Liu Sandao felt a blank in his mind, and subconsciously staggered back two steps, his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word!
Boss Chen was the same, with an incredulous look on his face.
He only saw that the snuffbox was in good condition, but he never expected it to have such an amazing provenance.
"Uncle, have you heard of Wang Yirong?"
He Jinyin shook his head, a fine light suddenly shot out of his eyes, and he said slowly: "In June 1900, Wang Yirong, who was the chief priest of the country, was appointed by the Empress Dowager Cixi as the minister of the Beijing Division. ”
"At this time, the Qing Dynasty is in a situation of external and internal troubles, and the Eight-Nation Coalition is about to invade Beijing......"
"In order to show the importance of Wang Yirong, the Empress Dowager Cixi gave him a delicate and small jade snuff box that she usually plays, hoping that he can save the situation!"
However, it is regrettable that on August 14, the Eight-Nation Coalition Army invaded Pingjing, and the next day Wang Yirong threw himself into a well and died in his courtyard at No. 11 Xila Hutong. ”
Wang Yirong's son Wang Chonglie learned the news of his father's martyrdom, grief-stricken, he knew that the carved jade snuff bottle was his father's favorite thing, so he would be in his hometown in Yantai to collect. ”
In 1919, after Wang Chonglie's death, this snuffbox was used as a funeral companion. ”
As time passed, his tomb was excavated by tomb robbers, and the fragments inside, gold, silver and jade were missing, and the whereabouts of the snuffbox were unknown. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed: "I didn't expect to see ...... here today."
Hearing this secret news, Boss Chen almost bit his tongue, he calmed down a little, and asked in a deep voice: "Then how much is this snuff box worth now?"
He Jinyin seemed to have expected him to ask such a question, and pondered for a moment, with a complicated expression: "In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the jade snuff bottle has become a status symbol, competing to be used by the princes and ministers, among which Qianlong and Cixi have used it, and it is the best of the best, and it is worth a lot of money. ”
"Until now, it is estimated that it will be at least 50 million!"
Boss Chen looked like a ghost, and said in a trembling voice: "How ...... How much?"
"More than 50 million!" He Jinyin sighed.
This kind of sky-high snuff bottle is now in his pocket at a price of 1,000 yuan, this kind of big leak, Rao is most of his life, he has only seen it in his life, and he has never heard of it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a feeling of looking up to Zheng Shaoqiu.
Boss Chen's whole body trembled like chaff, and he was about to speak, but he heard a pop.
I saw that Liu Sandao's eyes were already black, and he fell straight to the ground.
