Chapter Ninety-Eight: What is Ancient Jade?
"Fang Yi, are you okay?" Seeing Fang Yi's trance-like expression, Man Jun asked with some worry, "Isn't it that I hit you last time and left any sequelae?"
Fang Yi's appearance on the stage just now really frightened the Manchu army, and he almost fell down, not to mention, his face was miserable and white, as if he was seriously ill, and until now Fang Yi's face has not recovered.
"Brother Man, it's really okay, it's because I didn't rest well yesterday......" Fang Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, he couldn't tell Man Jun that he used too much mental power to lead him to be so weak.
However, it was really the first time for Fang Yi to encounter such a situation, he had never thought that the excessive use of spiritual power would bring so much damage to himself, Fang Yi estimated that he would not be able to recover for ten days and a half months, I am afraid that he would not be able to use his divine thoughts to release that kind of divine power again.
"Yes, it's okay......" Man Jun knew that he couldn't help much, if Fang Yi really had something, it would be the sequelae of the car accident.
"Brother Man, I'll raise my spiritual ......"
At this time, the people on the stage had already come down from above, and except for the booth, the lights everywhere were also relatively dimmed, Fang Yi sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, closed his eyes and practiced to nourish his divine sense.
"Everything has two sides, so it seems that such magical powers should be used with caution......"
Although Fang Yi's Taoist kung fu cultivation can cultivate divine consciousness in itself, there is no specific practice for divine consciousness, so after sensing his divine consciousness, Fang Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he knew that the damage to his divine consciousness this time was still above the previous estimate.
Originally, Fang Yi's divine sense was only one step away from breaking through to the realm of inner vision, but at this moment, it was a little reluctant to even use the true qi in his body to walk Zhou Tian, after Fang Yi tried it, he finally put down his leg, because this kind of injury would not be able to recover for a while.
"Friends, I believe you have found your favorite object, so now the auction will officially begin, let's start with the heavy bronze, the first handicraft is this four-legged square tripod.
As we all know, Ding was the most important weapon of the country in ancient times, and this piece is naturally not genuine, but it is also a fine imitation of the imitation, completely imitating the ancient craftsmanship, and the cost is expensive, so the starting price is 10,000 yuan......"
Just as Fang Yi was probing his divine sense, the voice of the host on the stage sounded, without any greetings or politeness, and the auction started straight to the point.
However, the first four-legged square lot was obviously used to make up the number, even if the host did not say that it was a textile, everyone present knew that this thing could not be real, so only one person responded to the bid, apparently this guy was going to buy it back and put it in the store as a decoration.
"The people who participate in this kind of auction have their own thoughts......
The volume of "Yongle Canon" that Fang Yi got his hands on was shot on the twenty-second, so Fang Yi didn't have much interest in these things he shot before, anyway, he couldn't afford it whether it was true or not, if it weren't for the wrong environment, Fang Yi might have meditated here, because he was very unaccustomed to the weakness generated by his divine sense.
"Old ...... Yu" Just as Fang Yi was about to walk for a little Zhoutian, an inaudible voice came from his ears, and it should be the officer Bai who was sitting next to him.
"There are unearthed objects, but there are useless ......"
Yu Lao's voice reached Fang Yi's ears, although his divine sense was somewhat damaged, Fang Yi's hearing was still far beyond the reach of people, even if the conversation between Officer Bai and Yu Lao was almost whispered, it was still heard clearly by Fang Yi.
"Elder Yu, how do you say this?"
After hearing Yu Lao's words, Bai Chuxia was puzzled and a little anxious, but she took the initiative to ask for this task, so Bai Chuxia also asked one of her elders to greet the relevant departments.
Although the task given to Bai Chuxia by her superiors is to observe carefully and not to startle the snake, Bai Chuxia's heart is very high, she wants to catch some clues in this auction, and then uproot this deeply hidden tomb robbery gang.
So as soon as he heard Yu Lao's words, Bai Chuxia was a little anxious, if he couldn't find any clues, wouldn't his mission this time be like a vase to go around, and there would be no gain at all.
"There is a piece of jade, and it is an unearthed thing at a glance, but there are too many unearthed jades, and the quality of the jade itself is only average, not up to the level of cultural relics, and they can't find their stubble ...... with this."
Yu Xuan shook his head and explained to Bai Chuxia, jade also belongs to the classification of miscellaneous items in literature and play, with Yu Xuan's eyesight, he didn't need to get started at all, and he could see at a glance that it was an unearthed ancient jade, which was a bit like something from Longshan culture.
As mentioned above, the ancient jade is not all valuable, and the ancient jade buried in the ground is played with by the predecessors, after being unearthed, it is necessary to see whether the jade quality of the jade itself is good, the second is to see whether the carving is exquisite, and the third is to see whether the color is reasonable, all three of which are indispensable.
The reason is very simple, the jade that can be bought for five yuan on the market, even if it has a long history, it is not worth much, just ask the stone on the mountain is old enough, it is billions of years old, who will sell it as a cultural relic?
The carver is a key factor in determining the value of a good piece of jade, compared with the craftsmanship of the Han Eight Knife and ordinary carving, there is no doubt that the price of the jade carved by the Han Eight Knife is higher, which is recognized in the industry.
As for the color, this is even more critical in the unearthed ancient jade, because no matter how good the jade is, no matter how exquisite the carving, if it is buried in the ground and eroded by various colors, it is also worthless.
Just like the ancient jade that Yu Xuan saw at the booth, the whole piece of jade was soaked in all kinds of colors, even if the various colors were mixed together, it could not show the unique charm of the ancient jade.
And in addition to the legendary piece and the clan, a small piece of jade like this does not belong to the important weapon of the country, nor is it among the unearthed cultural relics, unless there is conclusive evidence to prove which tomb it was unearthed in, it can barely be used as evidence for the filing of a case.
"Isn't everything else unearthed?" Bai Chuxia asked in a low voice, unable to hide the disappointment in his heart.
"Something else?** out of ten is fake......"
Yu Xuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, an auction like this, not to mention a very hidden collection company, even those fledgling people will not come up with the real thing, the auction is just a seal, and the one-line connection behind the auction is the real transaction.
However, it is not easy for the police to get involved in that level of transactions, don't look at Su Shilun's strong financial resources, but he can only be regarded as a junior in the antique shop, and the main collection is miscellaneous cultural toys, those tomb robbers want to get rid of the country's heavy weapons, but they will not find him.
"Early summer, don't be so nervous, relax, it's time to study today......" Looking at Bai Chuxia's angry appearance, Yu Xuan suddenly laughed.
In fact, Yu Xuan was able to participate in the auction this time, eighty percent of it was for the sake of Bai Chuxia's face, the elder of this girl's family, but Wang Lao had a deep friendship, if it wasn't for Wang Lao personally calling him, in the domestic antique industry and cultural relics industry, who could instruct him to move Yu Xuan.
"Old Yu, I understand, Ming'er still has to trouble you......"
Bai Chuxia just drilled the tip of the horns, but after hearing Yu Xuan's words, she also figured it out, if this case that had been hanging for several years was so easy to crack, wouldn't it have been solved a long time ago, where could it be her turn?
"Okay, I'll go with you Ming'er, just to introduce you to an old friend......"
Yu Xuan nodded and said: "There are too many liars in society now, especially in the antique business, it seems that the disciple of my old friend likes to collect cultural and toy things, you can just ask him to buy them when the time comes......"
In fact, when he came to Jinling yesterday and heard Bai Chuxia say that someone wanted to sell him a Donkey Kong bracelet worth 50,000 yuan, Yu Xuan rejected the object in his heart.
Because in the cultural play, King Kong is not a very valuable thing, and Hainan Huanghuali and agarwood can not be compared at all, the material determines that things like King Kong cannot be sold at a very high price, even if the quality is very good, at best, it is worth twenty or thirty thousand yuan.
