"When the handguard sword sport first became popular, there was no strict distinction between foil sabre and epee, and all swords were basically of the same specification. In the later period, there were gradually various regulations for handguard swords, and the three-sword rules of modern fencing were differentiated. ”

Anna picked up a fragment of a broken sword, sighed as if sighing, and then said to Zheng Bei: "This sword is closer to the saber in terms of specifications, but it is very different from the saber in fencing that we have seen so far. This sword was one of the first to be used for formal stabbing when the handguard sword movement was in its infancy. In the sense of the times, this is the beginning of an era. ”

Seeing that Anna's words were about to be broken, Zheng Bei hurriedly answered: "Thank you very much, Mr. Anna, for your explanation, I understand it now...... Please go ahead. ”

Zheng Bei's mind was not on the first two choices at all, to be honest, he was not even interested in listening to it, what he really cared about was what was on the third table. However, Anna made it clear that he was not cooperative, and it was almost impossible for him to directly say the things on the third table, so Zheng Bei could only ask Anna to explain the pile of things on the second table as soon as possible, so that he could quickly explain the origin of the things on the third table to himself.

"Oh, is Mr. Zheng interested in this......" Anna looked at the debris on the second table, nodded, and said, "I wonder how much Mr. Zheng knows about amber and crystals......

It's similar to the opening sentence when explaining the bayonet, but Anna doesn't seem to be happy with her performance, and when she says this, it drags on a little bit of time, intentionally or unintentionally. This is also really admirable for Anna, who can talk nonsense for ten minutes, digression for thousands of miles, but it seems to be the same thing again, and this nonsense has been turned over and over again, and it has not been repeated at all.

After chattering for fifteen minutes, Zheng Bei was already as big as a fight. Anna's nonsense seemed to be almost over, and it was summed up in one sentence: "...... What looks like slag is actually amber and crystal. A piece of crystal and a piece of amber for unknown reasons are firmly bonded together to form a natural shape. It's a pity that there were some accidents later, and it became what we see now. ”

After listening to Anna's sentence, Zheng Bei finally breathed a long sigh of relief, he was finished...... After saying a few polite words on the scene, Zheng Bei, who had long been anxious, said, "Mr. Anna, please tell me what is on this table...... I just couldn't figure out how to put it all together. ”

On the third table, which Zheng Zheng cared about the most, there was some rotten parchment, which could barely be seen from the bits and pieces, it should be a drawing or something. In addition to the parchment fragments, there was a thin pile of gold leaf on the table, as well as broken gold vines and leaves.

It wasn't that hard to glue the golden vines and leaves together. The key is the rest of the parchment and gold leaf, how to deal with these things, and how to splice them together with these gold vines and leaves? Even if he wanted to break his head, Zheng Bei couldn't figure out what kind of method should be used to splice these three things into one thing.

It is precisely because of this that Zheng Bei is extremely interested in this. If you can't see what this can be put together, then others can't see it. If you can think about this thoroughly, and then put it together in front of everyone at the party, then the effect is also quite eye-catching.

"Hmm...... The origin of these things is interesting. How much does Mr. Zheng know about Michelangelo?" asked Anna in a somewhat casual tone.

Zheng Bei replied cautiously: "I have some understanding. ”

Zheng Zheng, who was standing in the distance, watched the two talk about the things on the third table, especially looking at Zheng Bei's appearance that seemed to be very interested in this, he wanted to laugh a little in his heart.

It's not that Zheng Zheng left any trap for Zheng Bei here, but the things on this third table, even if Zheng Zheng used the bronze balance to look at it at first, he almost didn't understand what was going on.

For Michelangelo, the most important statue is probably the "Statue of David". Although Michelangelo was also somewhat famous before this, it was with this statue that the twenty-six-year-old Michelangelo raised his reputation to another level. And this "statue of David" is actually not all the credit of Michelangelo.

In 146....4, the sculptor Donatello signed a contract to complete a statue as part of a group of 12 heroic statues in the Old Testament. He carved the approximate shape of his lower limbs, torso, and clothing on a piece of white marble from a Carrara quarry in the Alps, but for some reason he did not continue to carve it. In 1466, Donatello died, leaving behind an unfinished statue.

In 1501, the authorities decided to find another artist to complete the work. Michelangelo, 26, was chosen, and it took him more than four years to complete the job. In January 1504, when the statue was almost completed, there was a discussion about where the statue should be placed, originally planned to be placed on the top floor of the church, but the beauty of the statue was so struck that it was decided to place it at the entrance of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, in place of a bronze statue of Donatello, to represent the spirit of Florence.

And this statue is what became known as the "Statue of David" later. Many people immediately think of Michelangelo when they mention the "Statue of David", but objectively speaking, this "big satellite" must be regarded as the result of the cooperation between Michelangelo and Donatello.

As a naked male, the nudity of the early David statue was controversial. The statue was "worn" with 28 copper fig leaves to cover its shame. The statue itself was once covered with gold leaf and a gold wreath on its head. And the most interesting thing is that these fig leaves, gold leaf, and garlands were all lost later, and no one knows where they went.

On the third table are the lost fig leaves, gold leaf, and truncated gold garlands.

Zheng Zheng didn't know much about this, and he also heard Anna say it when he learned about these antiques with Anna later. As for the pieces of parchment...... That's the blueprint Donatello made before he engraved. And the design he made, although due to the passage of time and poor preservation, the ink marks on it have faded a lot, and it is inevitable that it will wear out some of them, but it can still be seen that his design is completely different from the "David Statue" carved by Michelangelo later.

Anna could see that Zheng Bei was very interested in this, so when he talked about this, he whetted Zheng Zheng's appetite, and it would be good to say that one of the three sentences was the right topic. After talking for nearly twenty minutes or so, Anna got enough pleasure from hanging Zheng Bei's appetite before telling Zheng Bei the whole story in a few words.

After hearing Anna say this, Zheng Bei shook his head secretly in his heart. This bunch of stuff is just a chicken rib at all.

To be honest, these three things are indeed very attractive and curious, and onlookers want to know what these three things will look like when they are put together. But the crux of the matter is that these three things are all related to a statue, but they don't have much to do with each other, and they can't be put together at all.

After attracting everyone's curiosity, Zheng Bei took out a gold wreath with little eye-catching, a pile of gold leaf that had to be pasted on the statue of David to have an effect, and an original design of the statue of David...... It's not too much to say that Zheng Bei is playing with the audience's feelings.

But to say that these things are useless, that's not right, after all, these things have the initial bright functions. But if he really chooses, Zheng Bei will have to take a considerable risk. In case everyone thinks that they are looking forward to it in vain, or that they have been fooled, then Zheng Bei will not be able to steal chickens and rice.

After thinking about it again and again, Zheng Bei felt that it was better to choose to give up. He requires stability, and any unstable factors for Zheng Bei need to be avoided as much as possible.

When Anna was introducing the first two antiques that Zheng Bei was not interested in at all, Zheng Bei kept peeking at the things on the remaining two tables. On one of the two tables was a few broken plaster pieces, which should be a plaster statue if put together, but I don't know what it was made of, and on the other table were some broken pinions and dials and the like, which Zheng Bei pondered should be a pocket watch or a similar mechanical pointer product.

If these two things are very important, it is estimated that they are not small, not necessarily the plaster statue copied by a master or the pocket watch brought by a celebrity. However, it is useless to be able to attract the eyes of laymen, and it must be able to show your level in a relatively easy way to recover. These two things obviously can't meet this requirement, so Zheng Bei can only give up.

Of the five things that Zheng Bei had already seen, except for the slag that Anna said was the combination of crystal and amber and shattered, the other four were too simple to restore and could not meet Zheng Bei's requirements.

That pile of debris is indeed quite difficult, if you can restore this in front of everyone, at least you can show Zheng Bei's unimaginable technology. But this has a premise, that is, Zheng Bei "can recover" these debris, and if he can't do this, everything is empty talk. Zheng Bei didn't think that just by taking a few glances here, he would be able to restore this really broken thing in front of everyone tomorrow.

After deciding to give up these five antiques, Zheng Bei glanced at Zheng Zheng. He didn't show anything on his face, but he was secretly scolding in his heart: "The intentions are so vicious, Zheng Zheng ......"
