Chapter 687: Hooked
readx;
Simu Wu Fang Ding weighs 875 kilograms, is the heaviest tripod in the world, and the legendary Yu "collect the gold of nine herds, cast nine tripods", it can be seen that these nine tripods should be heavier than Simu Wu Fang Ding, unfortunately, the legendary nine tripods, have been lost. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Bronze tripod weight, not in China, but in addition to Simu Wufang Ding, more than 300 kilograms of bronze tripod, Zhuang Rui has rarely heard of it.
In the burial pit of the hundred opera figurines of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, a bronze tripod of the Qin Dynasty has been unearthed, which is 61 centimeters high and weighs 212 kilograms, which is the largest and heaviest piece of Qin Dynasty tripod vessel found at present.
When the ancients described a person with great strength, they often said that his strength could carry the tripod.
Sima Qian's mention in the historical books that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, "is more than eight feet long and can carry the tripod", which is translated into the current words, that is: "Xiang Yu is more than 1.80 meters tall, has great strength, and can carry a very heavy tripod." ”
The tripod mentioned in this historical book will naturally not be the Simu Wufang Ding weighing more than 800 kilograms, because the latest world record in the clean and jerk of more than 110 kilograms is 266 kilograms, which is the human limit record so far.
Sima Qian is still a cautious and more realistic person, he uses the word "carry" instead of the word "lift", which shows that the bronze tripod carried by Xiang Yu should weigh between 100 and 200 kilograms.
The bronze tripods that have been unearthed, only a very small number of heavy tripods in the Shang and Zhou dynasties can reach more than 300 kilograms.
And Yu Zhenping opened his mouth and said that he had a bronze tripod weighing more than 300 kilograms, if this bronze tripod came out, whether it was a bronze tripod of the Qin tripod or the Shang and Zhou dynasties and the Warring States period, it would definitely cause a huge sensation in the archaeological and collection circles.
"Ren...... Boss Ren, are you telling the truth?"
Zhuang Rui was excited, and almost shouted out Yu Zhenping's name, and after stabilizing his mind, Zhuang Rui continued: "Boss Ren, if your bronze tripod is real, I can definitely give you a satisfactory offer, but I have to look at this thing before ......"
"Boss Zhuang, let's not talk darkly, if this thing is gone, you and I will be imprisoned, so let's negotiate the price first and then look at the object......"
Of course, Yu Zhenping knew whether this thing was real or fake, at that time, they were disguised as people from the coal survey team, and rented a crane in the suburbs of rural Hubei.
In this way, it took more than 2 days to get this bronze tripod from the tomb of the Shang and Zhou Dynasty to the car, and it is precisely because of the use of the crane that this bronze tripod is extremely well preserved, and even the beast rings on the four walls have not fallen off.
"Boss Ren, then you can make a price, but this price must be within my affordability, you know, I got this bronze tripod, and if I don't put it up and down, this object still can't be placed in my museum......"
Zhuang Rui said half-truthfully, to be honest, he really wanted to hack this bronze tripod in his heart, if this thing was placed in the museum, I am afraid that just the students and teachers of the archaeology departments of various colleges and universities would be able to step on the threshold of their own museums.
"Free visits?"
There is no door, buddy opened a private museum, see clearly, it is "private", when the time comes, just this ticket, don't make a lot of money?
Zhuang Rui thought of the happy place, his face couldn't help but smile, standing at the door of his car and laughing stupidly, seeing that the people who served as the security guards outside the museum wondered in their hearts, "This rich man is really a quirk, how can he drool when he makes a phone call?"
Hearing Zhuang Rui let him bid, Yu Zhenping was stunned for a moment, this idea of selling bronze tripods was just emerging, how did he know what kind of price was appropriate?
And in the place where this respectful Ding is hidden, there are three or four hundred remaining antique cultural relics, if you take Zhuang Rui there to see the goods, that place must be exposed, and Yu Zhenping has no ability to empty these objects, if the price is lower, wouldn't it be cheap Zhuang Rui for nothing?
"Boss Zhuang, I want to think about it, let's contact ...... later"
Yu Zhenping is not suspicious, Zhuang Rui exchanged collections with overseas museums some time ago, and he also knows that in Yu Zhenping's heart, Zhuang Rui is definitely the best trading partner, if it is not a last resort, he will not choose someone else to trade, this is also due to human inertia, do not do it well.
It's just that Zhuang Rui just wanted to buy the bronze tripod, which made Yu Zhenping very entangled, he was reluctant to have so many antique cultural relics in his heart, but now he is facing the situation of cutting off the cooking, and his brain is a little messy for a while, so he simply hung up the phone.
"Hey...... Hey, Boss Ren, you can make a price......"
After Zhuang Rui shouted for a long time, he heard the busy sound of "doo" from the opposite side, and then dialed over, but the other party had turned off the phone.
"Damn, isn't this the appetite of hanging buddies?"
Zhuang Rui angrily kicked the tires of the car, took out the key to open the car door, and drove home, but just after driving 200 meters, Jiang Hao's phone called.
Zhuang Rui pressed the answer button and said: "Team Leader Jiang, Yu Zhenping called just now, I asked him to quote, and he said to consider replying to me, by the way, have you monitored his residence?"
"Not yet, Xiaozhuang, your mobile phone must not be turned off, continue to keep in touch with Yu Zhenping, well, notify you immediately if there is a situation, don't say much, in case he calls......"
After Team Leader Jiang said a few words, he hung up the phone, but he was extremely depressed in his heart.
Listening to wireless calls, it must be within a certain range, and in such a short time, Jiang Hao's report has been typed, and the leader has not yet given instructions.
"Mom, where's Xuan Bing?"
After returning to the courtyard, Zhuang Rui walked to the wing room of the middle courtyard, Beijing was a little hot in July, and Ouyang Wan's outdoor activities gradually decreased, and she was staying in the air-conditioned room at the moment.
The white lion lying on the ground was even more unaccustomed to this kind of weather, and when he saw Zhuang Rui coming in, he just opened his eyes weakly and looked at it, and continued to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.
"Xuan Bing and your sister-in-law went to choose a wedding dress, you kid, in such a hot weather, you don't say go with you, you know how to work with your museum all day long......"
Although Ouyang Wan never asked Zhuang Rui's business, she still complained a few words at the moment, Xu Qing was pregnant, it had been seven or eight months, in case there was something bad, she would not have the face to see the little brother.
Zhuang Rui grimaced when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Mom, it's okay, Peng Fei is with me, I'll be free after this busy time......"
Zhuang Rui originally said to bring all the wedding dresses from the photography shop, but Qin Xuanbing had to try them on first, and he was going to Hainan tomorrow, Zhuang Rui had to go to the museum today to explain, so he asked Peng Fei to accompany him.
"Xuan Bing is your daughter-in-law!"
Ouyang Wan glanced at her son helplessly, and said: "There is mung bean soup in the refrigerator, go drink it to relieve the heat, isn't it good to stay at home in this weather, you have to run out, there is no scene in Beijing, and you have to go to Hainan to take wedding photos......"
Zhuang Rui smiled and said: "Mom, there is a sea in Hainan, when you find a wife, I will also send you to Hainan to shoot wedding dresses......
"This kid, what nonsense, you see that your mother can't beat you, right?"
Ouyang Wan couldn't stand Zhuang Rui's words from time to time asking her to find her wife, so she picked up the chicken feather blanket from the table and made a gesture to hit Zhuang Rui, the white lion on the ground heard the movement, stood up and took a look, and then lay down again very unrighteously.
"Mom, I'll answer the phone, let's get back to it, there's something ...... business"
Just as my mother was joking, another strange phone call came in, Zhuang Rui guessed that there was still an aftershock, and hurriedly ran out of the house, walked to the gazebo near the pond and sat down.
"Who?"
"Boss Zhuang, it's my ......"
Sure enough, it was Yu Zhenping who called, Zhuang Rui could afford to wait, but he couldn't afford to wait, after thinking about it, he decided to give up the antique cultural relics in that room, anyway, there are still two places to hide cultural relics, as long as he can go abroad, there will always be a chance to open up in the future.
"Boss Zhuang, I won't go around in circles with you, I'll tell you honestly, where the bronze tripod is placed, there are more than 400 bronzes from the Shang, Zhou, Qin and Han dynasties......
This batch of artifacts can be given to you in full, but you have to prepare me with 500,000 RMB and 500,000 US dollars in cash, plus a bearer Swiss bank cashier's check of 5 million euros, and if you can get it done within three days, I will inform you of the time and place of the inspection......"
Yu Zhenping figured out that he could only carry a maximum of 1 million banknotes with him, which was almost a schoolbag, as for the promissory note of the Swiss bank, he had heard Boss Yu mention it, but he had never seen it, and he brought it up in the spirit of being cheap and not taking advantage of the bastard.
"More than 400 bronzes?"
Zhuang Rui gasped on the phone when he heard this, and when he heard Yu Zhenping's offer, Zhuang Rui really wanted to kick the police away and trade with this "Boss Ren" alone.
You must know that some time ago, Macao held a special auction of Chinese bronzes, a total of 49 bronzes without first-class auctions, setting a 100% sell-through rate, but also a record of 120 million Hong Kong dollars, and this is only 49 bronzes created.
If it is really as Yu Zhenping said, he has more than 400 bronzes in his hands, then his bronze exhibition hall will be able to open for business immediately, of course, Zhuang Rui can only slander this thought.
Zhuang Rui settled down and said: "Boss Ren, money is not a problem, it won't take three days, I can handle it tomorrow, but I have to look at the goods before I can give ......the money."
"Of course, in that case, I'll call Boss Zhuang tomorrow night......"
Yu Zhenping is not afraid that Zhuang Rui will eat black, the gun in his hand is not a vegetarian, and he will die a rotten life, Yu Zhenping doesn't believe that Zhuang Rui dares to gamble with him?
