Chapter 189, the face was swollen
Liu Xing's mood is very unhappy, if he doesn't know Mo Bei, it's okay, after all, some things often happen in the antique shop, but now he and Mo Bei go to the antique shop together, if he is cheated, then he will have no face on his face!
That's why he scolded Mo Bei loudly.
"Don't say a word!" Zhu Shanshan glanced at Liu Xing, obviously she didn't expect her boyfriend to scold Mo Bei in public, although she had a good relationship with Huang Rui and often made some innocuous jokes, but her boyfriend was meeting Mo Bei for the first time.
In case the other party is a violent temper, in case they quarrel, she and Huang Rui will definitely be embarrassed, and there will be cracks in their relationship.
Huang Rui was a little unhappy, her face showed displeasure, she believed that Mo Bei did not have water in his head, and she also knew that he would definitely not suffer a loss if he spent three thousand yuan. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Mo Bei's mind was really flooded, she would never allow anyone to say this to his face.
Just when Huang Rui was about to get angry, Mo Bei glanced at her, and then smiled: "It's okay, after all, Brother Liu is also good for me." As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and scanned the code directly to pay 3,000 yuan.
"Idiot!" Liu Xing muttered angrily.
"It's yours!" the old man smiled and handed the sword to Mo Bei.
Mo Bei took out the long sword and looked at it twice, this is an ordinary stainless steel sword, the long sword is not sharp, but it is polished very brightly, and it is good to put it as an ornament at home.
"Old man, I don't want the sword, I just need this scabbard!" Mo Bei said as he handed him the long sword.
"As long as the scabbard is sheathed?" the old man who sold the sword looked surprised.
Not only him, but even Liu Xing frowned slightly, obviously not knowing why Mo Bei only needed a scabbard, you must know that the cost of the scabbard is very low, at best, it is only forty or fifty yuan.
"Brother Bei, is there any difference in this scabbard?" Huang Rui asked excitedly, she believed that Mo Bei could not spend money in vain, it was obvious that he knew that this scabbard was not an ordinary thing, otherwise he would not be wronged.
"Won't you just open it and take a look?" Mo Bei smiled slightly, and then gently exerted his strength, directly splitting the scabbard in two, after all, this thing itself was nailed up with nails.
After opening the scabbard, there was nothing abnormal, but Mo Bei found that there was a small, boxy gold plate inlaid in the middle of the scabbard, which looked like a thangka, and there was a traditional Chinese character carved on it.
"Good guy, there are other objects hidden in this scabbard, this is really a bit unbelievable!" The old man who sold the sword gasped, but there was not the slightest reluctance in his eyes, after all, this sword had been sold to Mo Bei.
Looking at Liu Xing again, I saw that his face was pale, without the slightest blood, just now he said that Mo Bei had water in his head, and said that people were idiots, but who would have thought that this slap in the face would come so quickly?
This gave him an illusion, as if his dignity was rubbed on the ground by Mo Bei.
Carefully taking off the gold piece, Mo Bei found that this gold piece has a thickness of five millimeters, and it has a sense of weight in his hand, not only that, but the back of the gold piece is also carved with a landscape painting, but because the gold piece is very small, only the tip of the iceberg can be seen.
"Brother Bei, how much does this piece of gold weigh?" Huang Rui asked impatiently.
Mo Bei weighed it and said uncertainly: "I feel that it should weigh more than ten grams!"
Liu Xing smiled coldly: "The price of gold in today's market is only more than two hundred grams, and more than ten grams is only worth a few dollars? ”
Mo Bei smiled: "Liu Xing, our worldview is different, you may be buying things to make money, and I just buy things to be happy, you should understand this, right?"
Mo Bei didn't want to pay attention to Liu Xing, after all, he had to take care of Huang Rui's face, but this Liu Xing repeatedly slandered him, which made him very unhappy.
Liu Xing snorted heavily, how could he not know the meaning of Mo Bei's words, it clearly said that it is difficult to buy money I am willing.
At this time, the old man who sold the Mobei Long Sword spoke: "This little brother, I don't agree with what you just said, although the ancient alchemy is far inferior to the contemporary craftsmanship, but the value of antiques and cultural relics is limited to the objects themselves? The precipitation of the years has given them a second life, how can they be measured by money? If this is the case, it can only prove that someone's vision is too narrow. ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Xing's face became more and more gloomy, he didn't expect that even the old man who sold swords would speak for Mo Bei, which made him feel disgraced, but he held back the anger in his heart: "In this case, then I want to ask the old man, in your opinion, what is the meaning of the existence of this gold piece?"
The old man looked at Mo Bei: "Little brother, can I take a look at the gold piece in your hand?"
"Yes. Mo Bei said and handed him the gold piece.
After the old man took it, he put on his reading glasses and looked at it carefully, and while looking at it, he couldn't help but sigh: "Wonderful! It is really wonderful, the landscape painting on the back is simply lifelike, as if it was printed on a fine printing press, although there is no record of which dynasty it came from, but one thing is certain, this thing is definitely not ordinary!"
After a pause, the old man raised his head and looked at Mo Bei, and said, "Little brother, you have found a treasure, this object is definitely not as simple as more than ten grams." ”
Mo Bei sneered: "What, I don't have any concept of gram weight or anything." ”
Liu Xing pursed his lips: "The weight of this piece of gold is only more than ten grams, right?"
"Old Meng, bring me your gram scale. The old man looked across the street at an old man selling beeswax.
Lao Meng got up and walked over with a palm-sized gram scale.
The old man directly put the gold piece on it, and it directly showed a gram weight of 28.6, which really surprised everyone, especially the old Meng, with a shocked expression: "Why is a piece of gold so heavy?"
The old man nodded with a shocked face: "Yes, this is not an ordinary piece of gold, but a piece of red gold." ”
"Oh my God, how is this possible?" Lao Meng gasped, not only him, but even Mo Bei and the others were stunned, no one is perfect, no one is barefoot, these eight words have already interpreted the rarity of red gold.
Don't say that in ancient times, even contemporary craftsmanship could not refine red gold, even if the so-called red gold content in the market was only 99.6 percent, there was no real red gold at all.
Huang Rui asked, "Old man, I want to know, how much is this gold piece worth?"
The old man smiled and shook his head: "The material of this object itself can be worth tens of millions, and the precipitation of the years has given it a second life... How to say, if you donate it to the state, the state will give you 500 yuan, plus a certificate of honor and a big red flower, but if you get an international auction house like Sotheby's, it will be worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars!"
"Hundreds of millions of dollars?" Huang Rui was taken aback, and after reacting, she looked at Liu Xing and looked at him with a smile: "Now do you still say that Brother Bei is an idiot?"
Liu Xing smiled awkwardly, he felt his face... It's swollen.
