"This thing should be a long-life lock, from the surface analysis, it should be a thing in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the material should be relatively rare gold, you must know that the general long-life lock is silver or jade, hehe, today is the first day of the new year, you can find this thing, it's really lucky, auspicious, and I wish the audience and friends in front of the TV a long life......"

"The longevity lock is also called the 'name lock'. Han parenting customs. It is popular in all regions of the country. It is actually metal, generally mostly silver ornaments, in the shape of an ancient lock, that is, the kind of long strip, engraved with the words "longevity and longevity", "longevity and wealth". It is a kind of ornament hanging on the neck of children in the Ming and Qing dynasties, according to superstition, as long as you wear this ornament, you can ward off disasters and evil, and 'lock' life, so many children have hung this ornament from birth soon after, and have been hanging until adulthood. One of the most popular ceremonies held for newborns at the age of 100 or their first birthday is to hang longevity locks. By exaggerating the usefulness of locks, they can be used to lock up the invisible. ”

When he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan, as the captain, and Du Tao, the team member, could hear it, but they couldn't see it, and they also had headphones to talk to each other.

"The predecessor of the longevity lock was the 'longevity thread', so it is also called the 'longevity thread'. There are also names such as 'longevity thread', 'life continuation thread', 'longevity thread', 'five-color thread', 'Dividing Soldiers', 'Zhu Suo', 'Baisuo' and so on. The meaning of padlocks on children's chests during the war years is to lock the lives of children and prevent the invasion of dangerous children by diseases and plagues. It is believed that once the child is locked. You will be able to grow up peacefully without disasters and disasters. So. People call this type of lock a longevity lock. ”

"The longevity lock is more about the blessings of the elders to the younger generations. The mainstream on the market is to use silver as the main building material, so I have this gold longevity lock in my hand. It should be very special. ”

"The novel "Happy Heart Edition" of the Qing Dynasty smallpox genius is described in this kind of ornament: there is a family surnamed Shi, who gave birth to a son at the age of forty, and the couple are afraid that he will not be able to raise him for a long time, so they specially hung a jade lock around their son's neck, and this jade lock has been worn by his side since then, and has been with him until he grows up. The book describes this jade lock, which is 'exquisitely crafted, wisps of pisces playing in the water, warm and lubricated. These words. In fact, it can also be used to evaluate the longevity lock in my hand, which is indeed beautifully carved and really amazing. ”

"Let's take a look at the introduction of this thing first, oh, the original owner got this thing at an auction, the time goes back to five years ago, and the auction price at that time was, my god, two million RMB. It's really not cheap!But this thing is so beautifully shaped, maybe it's really worth the money, continue to see, what allusions are made to this longevity lock. ”

"During Jiaqing, Yang Zhou Yushi had a collar lock. The formula is four petals of begonia, when the item is one petal, bending seven inches long. The petals are slightly inlaid with a cat's eye gemstone. The cover hook can be detached, when the chest is a flap. It is six inches long, and the tip of each petal is inlaid with a ruby. Cover machine button can be stacked, the left and right two petals are five inches long, all chisel gold for elm plum, pitch to the east pearl, the place where the two flower pedicles meet, between the drum nail gold ring, the east pearl fan thirty-six grains, each grain weighs seven points, each is a section, the section can be turned, for the white jade ring of the nine, the ring belongs to the circle, the subordinate lock, the lock transverse diameter of four inches, the style is like a begonia, Fei Di Zhou Cui, carved Cui for algae, carved Fei for the washing beauty makeup, its back engraved Qianlong Wushen to reward the third concubine of the fourth division of the sixteen characters, the lock droops East Pearl nine gills, each nine beads, sapphire for the falling foot, long can be used as an umbilicus, is this thing。 ”

According to this passage, it was consigned by a nun who, in her youth, used to work as a maidservant for a woman from a noble family, and the beautiful woman engraved on the lock was the lady of the noble house. Unexpectedly, this powerful man later fell, and after the servant girl ransomed her, she took this treasure and returned to her hometown, cutting her hair and becoming a nun. The collar lock was valued at 'tens of thousands' - that is, ten thousand taels of silver. It can be called the best of the necklaces. At that time, it was 10,000 taels of silver, my God, so it seems that this thing will be taken down for 2 million, which may be considered cheap. ”

After Zhang Tianyuan heard this, he was also a little interested in this thing, and it happened that the room where he and Changqing were was separated by a corridor, so he immediately used the word appreciation trick to see, and it could be seen through the wall that this thing was indeed exquisite.

But this thing should actually be a name lock, not a longevity lock.

Although the name lock has the same name as the long-lived lock, the meaning is slightly different. After the birth of a child, some parents are worried about the death of their child, so they choose a person with many children to be the child's foster father or mother in order to seek refuge. After sending the name, hang the lock-shaped ornament between the child's neck. There are also names placed on the gods and monks and nuns, in order to use the power of the gods to drive away demons, Jia Baoyu in "Dream of Red Mansions" wears this kind of name lock.

In the third chapter of the novel, Baoyu appeared: "He was wearing a half-worn silver and red coat sprinkled with flowers, and he still carried a collar, Baoyu, a name lock, a talisman and other things." "The Words of the Golden Vase Plum" mentions an ornament called "Silver Neck Talisman", which is actually another name for "Signature Lock". The book said: "This is the purple thread sent by his master and his mother. It's this silver talisman again, with eight characters on it, with and it is good-looking, with his name hanging on the back. ”

However, whether it is a name lock or a longevity lock, as long as the thing is a good thing, then it will be fine, so Zhang Tianyuan still observes very carefully, but unfortunately, although this name lock looks very exquisite, it is just imitated by the ancients according to the articles of the ancients, and the value is there, but it is definitely not an object in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Seeing that it was imitated by today's people, he lost interest, this kind of thing, as long as it is a modern tyrant, you can find a jewelry master to make zuò, in fact, the process is not too complicated, mainly materials, you can do it with money, and the value is quite high, but it is definitely not worth two million, if Zhang Tianyuan judges, it will be at most 200,000, this so-called original owner, it should be expensive to buy, and it is more than a little more expensive.

He had already made his judgment, but Changqing over there was still showing off his profound knowledge, and continued to the camera: "Such a complex long-life lock, or to be precise, it should be a name lock. It is not easy to preserve it from the Qing Dynasty to the present. At least I've never seen or heard of it. The text engraved on it is so clear, and the pen is strong and powerful, it should be everyone's doing. ”

Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, the lettering on this is indeed very good, but it is definitely not a master's work, it should be engraved by a modern computer, so the pen should not be said to be strong and powerful, but it can be said to be a little dull and lifeless.

Since it is a modern imitation. Then there is no question of zài preservation, a little complete, and it is also very normal.

"I guess the audience in front of the TV must be very concerned about the true value of things, right? Don't worry, let's reveal the mystery right away......

"Click, switch ads!"

Director Zhang Da let Changqing take a break, this time period is to insert advertisements, after all, this show is endorsed by others, if you don't broadcast advertisements, it is unreasonable.

In ad breaks. The actors were all sitting there resting and drinking, but Zhang Tianyuan called Changqing aside and asked, "Are you sure this thing is real?"

"Of course not, this thing looks like a modern imitation, and the workmanship is very exquisite. But it can't escape my eyes, but I didn't look carefully just now, and the time is too tight. So I didn't judge for sure, but now Jian Chen is there with me. I'll have to bluff him first, or I'll escape!" Changqing explained.

At this time, he was still bowing his eyebrows when he was in front of Zhang Tianyuan. Don't dare to speak out loud at all.

"By the way, Boss Zhang, what do you think of this thing?" asked Changqing.

"Everything is real money, but it's not an antique, it's just modern jewelry, if you sell it now, it's only two or three hundred thousand, this person bought a loss, and a big loss. "If Zhang Tianyuan wants to be evergreen, he can talk nonsense, but that won't do the show any good, so he will tell the truth.

"Yes, I think so too, two million five years ago, that's quite valuable, it's a pity. Changqing sighed.

"Alright, it's time to rest, let's get back to work. Director Zhang Da's voice sounded again, so the staff took their places again and continued filming.

"As you can see, the materials used in this name lock are real money, as well as pearls and other things, which are really valuable, and the carving skills are also very good, if it is really something handed down from ancient times, then it is definitely priceless. The analysis I just made was for this thing to be said that it was a long-lived lock of the Qing Dynasty, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that although the lettering on it has the characteristics of the master's penmanship, it is obviously engraved by the computer, and the carving process is also made by the assembly line workers, although it can not be said to be exquisite, but it lacks the accumulation of history, if you have to let me give an estimate, then the value of the thing ......"

Having said this, all the people who were paying attention to the shooting at this time became nervous, especially the treasure bearer, who straightened his ears and was worried, because he should be able to hear from Changqing's words that most of the things are modern imitations, and he only hopes that the value can be higher now, and he doesn't lose too much.

It cost two million at the beginning, and the two million at that time were worth more than the two million now.

"300,000, 300,000 to the top, can't be more, unless you meet someone who doesn't know the goods, treat this thing as an antique, otherwise, this is just a piece of jewelry, and the value is about two or three hundred thousand......"

In the stunned crowd at the scene, the treasure bearer fell to the ground directly, and the people nearby also sighed, the collection is really similar to gambling, when you spend a lot of money to buy things back, you must expect it to appreciate, at least it can maintain its value, but in the end it was a mess, and everyone can not accept it.

From two million RMB to two or three hundred thousand, this is equivalent to a tenfold shrinkage, more than one million are directly lost, if there is that money, even if it is a house, it has appreciated a lot now.

Originally, many people at the scene planned to go to the antique street to Taobao after learning something here, but now they are starting to retreat, and this still needs to be understood more deeply, otherwise, they don't know how to cry when they cry.

"I want to say to the audience in front of the TV, sometimes don't be greedy for a small bargain, greedy for trouble, if you really encounter such a thing, it is best to find a professional to consult, then next, I should also run for my life!" (to be continued......)
