Chapter 600: Commander Excalibur
Chapter 600: Cadre Excalibur
...... "Owner, this can't really be the famous 'Cadre Sword', right?" ”
It's no wonder that Uncle Zhong would guess like this, almost everyone who is familiar with the Cadre Mo Evil Sword knows that both swords have a distinct feature in the legend.
The two swords have patterns on their bodies, and the sword is "made of turtle text", and the Mo evil sword is "made of manli" (water ripples)! And at this moment, the sword body exposed by this sword is exactly a tortoiseshell-like tortoise pattern!
"I don't know for the time being, I won't know until the patina on the sword is all removed!" As he spoke, Liu Dong took the bronze sword from Uncle Zhong's hand, and as soon as the frost tiger knife was raised, it was about to scrape the rust again!
"Wait!" If Uncle Zhong didn't see it, how could Uncle Zhong let Liu Dong treat it with such a rough method when facing a divine sword that was likely to be a cadre.
If Liu Dong accidentally scratched the sword body, it would be irreparable damage.
Therefore, Uncle Zhong, who is inherited by Li Lao and is extremely concerned about the maintenance of antiques, naturally can't let Liu Dong be so reckless!
"Wait a minute!"
As he spoke, Uncle Zhong walked into the bedroom next to him in Liu Dong's puzzled eyes, and came out with a thick glass bottle of about twenty centimeters in a short time.
Before Liu Dong could ask what was in the bottle, Uncle Zhong had already put down the bottle, and then quickly slapped half a basin of water, and then found a few brushes and two white towels to come over.
After all these were ready, Uncle Zhong picked up the glass bottle, and after unscrewing the cap on it, Liu Dong, who had a keen sense of the five senses, immediately smelled a strange smell, sour, and Liu Dong was sure that he had never smelled it.
I saw Uncle Zhong pour the brown viscous liquid in the bottle into the water. Then stir well with your hands. Baby's recapped the bottle.
"Give me the sword!"
Liu Dong did as he said. He also wanted to see how Uncle Zhong could remove the patina from the surface, and it was a little different from what he had learned!
After taking the bronze sword from Liu Dong's hand, Uncle Zhong began to pick up the brush, dipped it in the pot, which had completely turned brown, and brushed it on the surface of the bronze sword over and over again.
The movements were complicated, but Uncle Zhong did not have the slightest impatience on his face, and even Liu Dong found that Uncle Zhong still had a little fun in it.
"Uncle Zhong, why don't you let me come?"
The old man is also in his sixties, and his body will definitely be tired after squatting for five minutes. So Liu Dong began to volunteer.
"No, just go and bring me that Maza!"
Looking at the serious expression on the old man's face, Liu Dong nodded, took two steps, and took a Mazha from the corner of the wall for Uncle Zhong to sit down. Then Liu Dong watched from the side.
As time passed, by the time that there were three more potions in the middle and three times of water exchange, the appearance of the entire sword was finally cleaned up!
Like Wu Wangfucha's sword, the sword head is round and concave, with a hilt length of nearly 15 centimeters, and a leaf pattern engraved on it. While increasing friction, it can also make the person holding the sword more comfortable.
The upper and lower sides of the flat relief gluttonous swallow were supposed to be inlaid with six precious stones. But now, after thousands of years of historical vicissitudes, there is nothing left but the last lonely piece of turquoise!
The sword is about 8 centimeters wide at its widest point and 1.2 meters long, which is already considered long among one-handed swords!
In the center of the building, there is a sword spine that runs through the entire sword body, and this shape is definitely not inferior to the three-edged saber in terms of lethality. And the sword blade that is still shining cold and shining for more than 2,000 years is enough to show that this is a divine weapon that can still see the blood seal.
In addition, the body of the sword is covered with tortoiseshell patterns that look like hexagons, which is unique to ancient refined steel, making this bronze sword even more extraordinary.
Of course, the most important thing is the two wrong golden bird seals on the sword, both Liu Dong and Uncle Zhong understand the meaning of these two words - 'cadre'!
"Is it really a Cadre Excalibur, is this really a Cadre Excalibur? I didn't expect that I, Shen Zhong, would have such a creation, and I would be able to witness the birth of this eternal sword with my own hands, it is really worthwhile, God treats me well!! ”
Seeing that the old man was holding a sword in his hand, his eyebrows and mustache were squeezed together with excitement, and his whole body was trembling violently, Liu Donghai was really afraid that the old man would have a heart attack again because of his increased blood pressure.
However, as a lover of antique collecting, Liu Dong understands how rare this opportunity is to be able to witness the birth of national treasure-level cultural relics, and it is also a cadre sword that has been passed down through the ages, so Liu Dong did not come forward to disturb at this moment.
"Maybe there is really a providence in the dark, when I found the 'Mo Evil', the Cadre Divine Sword also came into my hands by this kind of coincidence, and now this pair of male and female swords that have been passed down through the ages have finally gathered again!" Liu Dong said in his heart.
"The owner, give it to you!" About half an hour later, Uncle Zhong carefully handed the sword to Liu Dong.
"Uncle Zhong is not in a hurry, or you can take a look again!" Looking at the old man's excited appearance just now, Liu Dong originally thought that Uncle Zhong would appreciate it for a few hours!
"No, I'm very satisfied to be lucky enough to see the birth of the Cadre Excalibur today, I just hope that the owner will allow me to watch it once or twice a year in the future!"
"Hehe, this is no problem!"
"That's right, Uncle Zhong! Just now I saw that your potion works very well when removing rust, can you lend me a little? Liu Dong said curiously.
It was the first time he had encountered such a good rust removal potion.
In just an hour, I couldn't help but remove all the rust on the original sword, and there was no damage to the sword body at all, and what was even more rare was that under Liu Dong's relic yuanguang, this potion formed a protective film on the surface of the entire sword after the rust was removed! Although I don't know how long this protective film can be stored, its storage can greatly protect the sword body and cause tissue oxidation.
"This is simple, the preparation of this potion is not complicated, I sue the owner of the formula, you can go back and mix it yourself!"
"How embarrassing is that!" Liu Dong understood how precious this almost unique thing was, but Uncle Zhong told himself the formula of the potion without the slightest hesitation, and Liu Dong was very grateful.
When Uncle Zhong rejected Liu Dong's offer to buy it, Liu Dong could only wait until the end of the year to make up for it with dividends and bonuses!
"By the way, Uncle Zhong, how is the business in the store during this time?" After taking a brocade box from the warehouse next to him and wrapping the sword in it, Liu Dong pulled Uncle Zhong and sat down on the circle chair in the living room.
"It's not bad, in the first quarter of this year, the turnover of our Agarwood Pavilion exceeded 8 million, and the profit was about 4.5 million!"
"So good?" Liu Dong was surprised.
You must know that last year, Agarwood Pavilion's best quarterly profit was only 3.5 million. Now that it has doubled by more than a quarter all at once, it is no wonder that Liu Dong was surprised!
"Yes, speaking of which, thanks to the paintings sent by the owner, from the end of the Chinese New Year to the present, nearly 20 of those paintings have been sold, with an average price of more than 20,000 each!"
After listening to Uncle Zhong, Liu Dong was really a little surprised.
As the initiator, Liu Dong knows very well what those paintings mean.
Since signing Wang Hongqi to his own flag in his hometown last time, Liu Dong has also purchased more than 100 oil paintings from the other party, as well as a large number of sketches!
Because there was no gallery in his hand, after returning to Quancheng, Liu Dong took out some of these paintings, and then put some of the landscapes, figures, flowers and birds he usually painted, as well as some oil paintings, which together were about fifty or sixty pieces, and all of them were put on the third floor of the Agarwood Pavilion for sale.
Originally, because he and Wang Hongqi were not famous, they would definitely not be able to sell at a price, but Liu Dong didn't want his hard work to be in vain, so he set a price of 5,000 per square foot for the two, and now the young painter who is famous in China is also at this price!
And in the absence of the gallery's packaging and publicity, Liu Dong originally thought that he would not be able to sell a single painting if he set such a high price, but now he thought that 20 paintings had been sold in less than two months, this result made him a little unbelievable!
"Let's go and have a look!" Liu Dong couldn't sit still, and he was also curious about whether his paintings had been sold!
Soon, Liu Dong walked in front with the brocade box and came to the third floor with Uncle Zhong.
The third floor, which is now about 130 square meters, is completely different from the previous warehouse.
In the middle of the third floor, four partitions are simply built with plywood, of course, these partitions are a distance from the walls on both sides, and the shape and length of these partitions also have certain changes, it can be seen that the whole space must have been specially designed!
"It's good, it's a little bit of a gallery!" Liu Dong took a turn on the third floor, looked around and praised it.
"Hehe, it's all done by Xiangzi looking for someone, and my old man doesn't understand this!"
After nodding, Liu Dong went to look at the carefully framed paintings hanging on the wall! Then I took the sales number from Uncle Zhong and took a look, and found that Wang Hongqi's words on it had sold 9 pieces, basically each of which was about 20,000~40,000. Liu Dong's paintings have sold 11 pieces, and the price is about the same as Wang Hongqi!
"Very nice! Uncle Zhong, I will send some more paintings tomorrow, but now that we are on the right track in this regard, you may wish to learn more about the calligraphy and painting circles in our province now, and see if there are any young painters worth cultivating, and sign them together! ”
"What the owner said is that I have also looked for two good candidates during this time, and I want the young master to take a look!"
"Oh, really?" After hearing this, Liu Dong became interested!
"Please come with me!"
