Chapter 505: The Demon Knife and the Jade Cabbage

Zhang Tianyuan's words were sonorous and powerful, and every sentence was reasonable, and no matter who it was, he couldn't pick out half an unreasonable word. Even Uncle He himself felt that he was wrong, dazzled, and a little less confident.

"Yes, you have arranged supervision, and there are cameras there, I won't check it, see if I, Zhang Tianyuan, have a good job, in front of the people of the whole country, this matter must be clarified, and it must not be so-so, otherwise I can't afford to lose this person." ”

"Brother, don't worry, I'll go watch the surveillance video with them, if they dare to fake, I'll kill them. After Nie Zhen said something to Zhang Tianyuan, he went to watch the surveillance with the people from the casino and the people sent by Liang Zitong.

Not long after, everyone came back and shook their heads.

Li Nanting said: "After careful and repeated observation, Zhang Gongzi does not have the possibility of being out of the thousands, Uncle He, you lost, although you are the king of gambling, but our gambling ship has always been reputable, since there is no old man, this game should be won by Zhang Gongzi." ”

In order to avoid misunderstanding by others, Li Nanting also changed the title of "Brother Zhang" to "Gongzi Zhang".

He Bo's expression at this time was extremely rich, and his originally ruddy old face actually became pale, like a miserable white piece of paper, losing all his blood. What old rivers and lakes, what gambling king, what gentleman's demeanor, what bigwig's demeanor, at this time, they have all become a burden, and they have become a heavy object that completely bends Uncle He's body.

In these three games, the first game is not as big as Zhang Tianyuan, and that's it, but the second game is a stolen chicken. It has made him angry, but this third game. It was nothing short of humiliating, and he confidently made all the bets. But in the end, he lost a mess, and more importantly, the card marking skills he was proud of also failed at this time, what a huge blow it was.

The most embarrassing thing is to say that others are out of the way, you checked the monitoring yourself, and you didn't find the slightest sign of the old man, although Uncle He didn't want to cheat, he was the one who made Zhang Tianyuan out of the old man. In fact, Zhang Tianyuan did cheat, and he felt a bit of a bully, but in the eyes of others, Uncle He was a bit of a scoundrel and couldn't afford to lose.

Thinking of this, He Boton felt dizzy, and his hands and feet were cold.

His old face was pale and he was short of breath, because of this. He fainted, but fortunately there was a helicopter here, and he was quickly taken to the hospital, and Zhang Tianyuan didn't expect this. He is not ugly with Uncle He, he just wants to be angry, who knew that this old man would be so careless.

That's it. Anyway, the gamble is over, it's time to go home.

But when Zhang Tianyuan stood up. was stopped by Liang Zitong: "You can't go, you want to leave if you win money." Where is there such a cheap thing!"

"Haha, I'll leave as soon as I go, can you control it? Don't say that you Liang Zitong is a businessman, even if you are the British ambassador and the British president, I, Zhang Tianyuan, am a Chinese citizen, can you control me? Ridiculous!" Zhang Tianyuan didn't want to talk nonsense with Liang Zitong, glanced at Nie Zhen, and motioned to Nie Zhen to let people take the things away first, lest these people and dogs jump off the wall and destroy those antiques.

Liang Zitong watched Zhang Tianyuan leave, but there was no way, there were warships and fighter jets outside, as long as he dared to come, then he wouldn't want to go back to Hong Kong today.

"Mr. Zhang, why don't we gamble on a game?" Suddenly, the Englishman who followed Liang Zitong to the scene stood up and said in very awkward Mandarin.

"And me! How dare you bet with me!" the man from Japan also stood up.

"You've lost all your chips, what are you still betting, okay, okay, I'm not in any interest today, let's end this game." Although Zhang Tianyuan wants to teach the British and Japanese a lesson, he will not do anything without remuneration, after all, he is not a real national hero, he is just an ordinary person.

"Don't you dare?"

"Yes, I just don't dare, you guys are amazing, it's ridiculous, I'm not even afraid of the stud gambling king, will I be afraid of you two birds? Zhang Tianyuan said disdainfully.

"I'll bet you on this, and if you win, the knife is yours!" said the Japanese, pulling out a knife.

"Japanese swords are good, but I'm not uncommon. Although Zhang Tianyuan said so, he still used the word recognition trick to look at it casually, it doesn't matter if he doesn't look at it, but he was taken aback when he saw it, this knife is not simple.

"Mr. Zhang, this is a lost treasure knife - Demon Sword Village Rain!" the Japanese said again in a very heavy tone.

Zhang Tianyuan because he studied archaeology, so he still knows the history of some swords, he has heard of the demon knife village rain, village rain is also known as village rain pill, according to legend, when this knife is pulled out to kill, the blade with murderous aura will condense with dew. After slashing someone, water will flow out of the blade to wash the bloodstains. This scene is like the village rain washing the leaves, so the knife is called "village rain". Because the knife is too murderous, it is also called "Demon Knife Village Rain".

In the story, this famous sword is said to be a symbol of the rulers of the Kanto region. Nobuno's father kept the sword as a retainer of the Ashikaga family, and his mission was to wait until the day when the Ashikaga family made a comeback and return the village rain to the Ashikaga shogun. But on the way to see the general of Shinno, Murayu was replaced by Tsunathan Zuo Mujiro, so that there were a series of plots such as the battle of Liufang Pavilion and the collection of three dogs.

The way to verify the authenticity of the village rain is to draw the knife out of the sheath and swing the knife in the air. If there are water droplets oozing out during the swing of the knife, then it is a real knife.

Regarding the final outcome of this knife, it is rumored that Shinno accidentally fell into the sea of Murayu, and his whereabouts are unknown, leaving the world with great regrets.

Now Zhang Tianyuan doesn't need to pull out the village rain to see, and he knows that this knife is absolutely real, he likes to collect, and he doesn't care which country it is, since foreigners can buy Chinese antiques, then why can't he get the other party's things?

He didn't know exactly how much the knife was worth, but as a collector's item, it was definitely quite good, and the key was that he was interested.

"It seems that Mr. Zhang agreed, okay, I'll exchange 100 million chips myself. Let's go ahead and gamble if we run out of chips. The knife will belong to Mr. Zhang, if Mr. Zhang loses. I don't want your stuff, how?"

"Then what are you for?" Zhang Tianyuan asked suspiciously.

"For the glory of the Yamato nation!"

"Hehe, what do you call it?"

"Date Shinyu!"

"Hahaha, interesting, then take 100 million chips to gamble, but I have limited time, after this handful, I will definitely not gamble again, and the rest of the people will not pester me again." Otherwise, you know that the warships out there are not muddy. Zhang Tianyuan smiled, this demon knife Murayu really made him want to get it, since this Date Shinyu wants to lose face, then let him lose this face!

"No, no, no, I'm going to bet, I'm going to bet!" the Englishman was also anxious.

"Well, you two come along. I'm betting with you at the same time, but what are your bets, British, if they're worthless. I don't bet. Zhang Tianyuan thought about it, anyway, he had already caused this trouble, so he could simply clean it up. Save yourself any more trouble.

Yu Hai reminded on the side: "Zhang Gongzi, these two people are also international stud gambling kings. They are younger than Uncle Ho, but their skills are no worse than Uncle Ho. If you're going to be one against two, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

"Oh, the gambling king, right? I like to win the gambling king. "In fact, the stud gambling king will basically produce one every year, after all, such a competition is also held once a year, these people are very good at gambling, and they are also called the stud gambling king, and there are still some differences in actual ability.

The level of this Japanese Date Shinyu, and the Brit is probably worse than Uncle He, but it is just worse in experience, after all, they are younger, only in their forties, but young also has the advantage of being young, if the two join forces, Zhang Tianyuan is really a little troublesome.

"How about my bet?" The Englishman heard Zhang Tianyuan so arrogant, and also took out his own bet, which was a jade cabbage that was almost exactly the same as a real cabbage.

But how does this thing look familiar?

By the way, isn't this jade cabbage the treasure of the Treasure Island Museum?

Whatever, as long as it's real, I heard that this jade cabbage was destroyed before, but now it doesn't look like it's being made, but someone got it out, it's not destroyed, anyway, the relationship between Baodao and the mainland is very delicate now, and if you get this thing, you're not afraid of them chasing it.

This jade cabbage is 18.7 cm long, 9.1 cm wide and 5.07 cm thick.

This work, which is almost 100% similar to the real cabbage, is made of jade, and the intimate theme, white body and green leaves all make people feel very familiar and intimate, don't forget to look at the two insects that stay on the leaves, they are the mantis and locusts that symbolize many children and grandchildren.

This work was originally placed in the Yonghe Palace in the Forbidden City, which was the dormitory of Concubine Jin, the concubine of the Guangxu Emperor, so some people speculate that this vessel was the dowry of Concubine Jin, symbolizing her innocence and seeking more children and grandchildren.

Although the material of jade and the shape of cabbage were popular in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the theme of cabbage and grass insects was common in professional grass and insect paintings from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, and has always been an auspicious theme popular among the people. In addition, cabbage-wrapped vegetables were also used by the Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu as a metaphor for the harsh environment of politics and the lack of talent, and in the tradition of literati painting, they were also cited as the subject of paintings, to express similar feelings, and to implicitly admonish the mediocrity of politicians.

In a poem in the 40th year of Qianlong entitled "The Title and the Khotanese Jade Frost Pine Flower Arrangement", Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty, as the emperor, was wary of the tradition of taking the metaphor of the gardener's ignorance of Jia vegetables as the art admonition from the flower arrangement in the shape of the cabbage in the shape of the cabbage in Du Fu's poem. Antique ripeness is novelty, the atmosphere is sublimated, the leaves are rolled from the root of the cabbage, and the heart is empty and luxurious. Flower arrangement Yahe is a cauliflower, scarlet peach and pear are shy and graceful, the people have no such color Shu Yunjia, art advice or Si Mo Yu me. ”

However, it is believed that both the craftsmen in the court workshop and the jade craftsmen who made zuò jade cabbage were only creative and skillful to create in accordance with the preferences of the sponsors, but because they did not leave relevant records, they also left more room for the viewer's imagination.

Natural color, man-made shape, symbolism, the harmony of the three makes for a rare treasure.

Because there has been no auction, it is difficult to say how much this thing is worth, the British gave an estimate of 100 million, saying that he would also take 100 million chips to bet with Zhang Tianyuan, once he loses, this thing will belong to Zhang Tianyuan. (To be continued......)
