Chapter 1121: Rare Treasures
Chapter 1121 Rare Treasures
……
"Eh, hello seniors!" Looking at the old men standing beside Liu Dong with white hair, Li Yuncong, who reacted, hurriedly greeted.
"You are the Li ...... of the old Li family!"
"Li Yuncong!"
"Yes, yes, Li Yuncong! Look at my memory, this memory is getting worse and worse as people get older!" After patting his head, Old Man Hong glanced at the pretty young woman standing beside Li Yuncong and smiled, "You are Zhuang Wen of the old dealer, right?"
"Yes, seniors know me?" Zhuang Wen said respectfully.
"Yes, I was there last time you got married!" replied Elder Hong.
Looking at Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen, who suddenly understood, Old Man Hong waved his hand, "Okay, let's gossip while walking, it's still important to look at the exhibits! Otherwise, there is not much time left today!"
Hearing this, Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen greeted the three old men respectfully, and hurriedly retreated to Liu Dong's side.
"Xiaodong, you kid, are you hiding so deeply?"
Li Yuncong, who was excited in his heart, patted Liu Dong on the shoulder and said excitedly.
Of course, the voice must have been a little lowered. After all, there are a lot of people here, and most of the people who walk in front are highly respected!
"What is so hidden?"
"I don't admit it, I've never seen you say that you have so many good things in your hands before, there are 9 white flawless diamonds of more than 100 carats in the diamond hall, and other yellow, green, blue, brown, pink, orange, red, black, purple and other superb colored diamonds are also accounted for! I have never heard that you have so many good treasures in your hands before!"
Listening to Li Yuncong's words like a machine gun, full of excitement, Liu Dong finally understood!
Not all of his jade collections are jade. It also includes: Diamond Pavilion, Ruby Sapphire Pavilion, Lapis Lazuli Pavilion, Jade Pavilion, Opal Pavilion, Emerald Pavilion, Hetian Jade Pavilion, Tianhuangshi Pavilion, Bloodstone Pavilion and a total of 18 pavilions distinguished by gem materials!
Other than that. The reason why so many people linger on the ninth floor. It is also because in the eyes of those laymen who do not understand antiques. Obviously, these jewels and jade, which are worth hundreds of millions of dollars in the outside world, are easier to attract their attention than the other seven layers of antiques!
Moreover, the jewelry that can be seen by Liu Dong and collected in the exhibition hall is all top-notch!
Take the diamond Li Yuncong mentioned just now, if it is a colorless diamond, you want to enter the diamond hall. It must weigh more than 100 carats, and it must be top notch in terms of transparency and color!
However, for colored diamonds, Liu Dong's standards have been lowered, and high-end and top-grade colored diamonds are among his collections.
This is also due to the fact that the number of colored diamonds is too precious.
Often, only one carat of colored diamonds will appear in 100,000 carats of white diamonds.
The world's most precious red diamond, the $7 million 'Samuyev', is known as the world's largest red diamond, but it only weighs 5.11 carats!
It is precisely because colored diamonds are too cherished that Liu Dong has spared no money in the competition in major international auctions over the years, as well as his own collection. But there are still not many truly high-grade colored diamonds.
If you distinguish it by color alone. There are no more than 10 diamonds of each color!
But. That's pretty remarkable!
It's no wonder that Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen are so excited, and it's no wonder that there are so many people on the ninth floor, and half of them are ladies.
Dealing with Li Yuncong's harassment all the way, the group walked into the elevator door and walked out of the elevator door, the nearest first exhibition hall, which was the diamond pavilion that Li Yuncong mentioned at the beginning.
To be honest, compared to the other major pavilions on the seventh floor, the number of exhibits in the Diamond Pavilion is really limited!
In the exhibition area of nearly 300 square meters, there are 89 tempered glass booths neatly arranged in the center of the exhibition room!
Each booth featured a piece of fine jewelry by Rose Jewelry's top master jewelers, and each piece of jewelry had its name!
Under the delicately placed spotlights, each piece of jewelry sparkles with intoxicating brilliance and attracts the attention of everyone around it!
Compared with those antiques, paintings, bronzes, porcelain, etc., which still need to be specially understood to understand the value, this kind of jewelry makes people understand their preciousness.
Therefore, although there are not many things in this diamond pavilion, and the place is not too big, the flow of people crowded in it is not small, and almost every booth is crowded with visitors who are reluctant to leave.
"Let's go and see the other pavilions, there are too many people here!" After seeing the situation in the Diamond Pavilion, Qi Lao frowned and said.
To be honest, he wasn't enthusiastic about these precious jewels that others thought were worth a thousand dollars. But now that you're here, it's okay to take a look. But now that there are so many people, Qi Lao doesn't think much about going in.
And the same feeling as him is Dong Lao and Old Man Hong!
For them, all the diamonds in this diamond pavilion add up, and none of them are more valuable than a calligraphy or painting by a famous artist!
Liu Dong didn't object much to the words of several old men, these diamonds, ruby sapphires and other jewelry were all his, and he had seen them before they were placed here!
However, Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen obviously didn't want to follow their group of antique professionals to hang around here, especially when they saw a group of people, in front of the exhibition hall of diamonds, ruby sapphires, opals, emeralds, and jadeite, Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen didn't want to go down with them!
So, after finding an opportunity, talking to Liu Dong again, and then finding an excuse to resign from the three old men, the two left quickly!
Although I am not interested in all kinds of jewelry, I have to look at jade, a major category in the antique industry!
Fortunately, compared to other pavilions, there are relatively fewer people here!
However, because of time, most of the jade collections, the three old men swept by. The finale of the jade pavilion is the 'treasure of the town hall' that they are most concerned about.
And Liu Dong did not disappoint them here, Zigang Yu's 'Eight Horses Picture' wrench finger and 'Canglong Godson' White Jade Dragon Hook, as well as the Red Mountain Jade Dragon, the Western Zhou Luminous Cup, Zhu Yuanzhang's 'Emperor's Seal' seal, plus Liu Dong's full-blooded jade cicada, which has not been in his hands for a long time, are all precious cultural relics at the national treasure level.
However, if you want to say that the most precious, or the national treasure among the national treasures, it still belongs to the 'Yaochi Holy Realm' Yushanzi that Liu Dong bought in Hong Kong the year before last!
In order to show the magic of this jade mountain, Liu Dong specially set up a separate exhibition room for it, and every half an hour in the exhibition room, the lights on the roof will be turned off, and the lights at the bottom of the jade mountain will be turned on.
At this time, the beautiful fairy mountain wonderland of the 'Yaochi Sacred Realm' will appear in front of the visitors. Almost all people who saw the magic of the Yaochi Sacred Realm for the first time couldn't help but be intoxicated by it, and couldn't extricate themselves! Even the three well-informed old men were the same.
Of course, their concentration is not comparable to ordinary people, and they are drunk and intoxicated, but they will soon wake up!
But in the face of this legendary fairyland, even the most calm Qi Lao couldn't help but exclaim: "The wisdom of the predecessors and ancients is really admirable!"
"Yes, it's really hard to imagine how the royal craftsmen used rudimentary tools to make such a peerless treasure thousands of years ago? Even with the development of modern technology, I am afraid that it will not be possible to reproduce such a wonderful work of art!" Dong Lao also agreed with admiration on his face.
"It's a pity that thousands of years have passed, and this ingenious and cherished skill has been lost!" Hong Lao shook his head.
"The appearance of too delicate treasures, in addition to superb skills, also has an element of luck. Even if the carving skills of the Sui Dynasty are passed down to this day, they may not be able to replicate such a fine Yaochi product!
"That's right!"
After lingering in the Yaochi Sacred Realm exhibition room, because there were too many people in it, the three old men also withdrew!
"Liu Dong, I'm afraid that this exhibition room will become the most crowded exhibition room in your museum in the future!" said Dong Lao, who had experienced the magic of Yushanzi in the Yaochi Holy Realm.
"No, it just opened today, and the entire venue is free to visit, so there are so many here! After today, the entry price of Yaochi Holy Realm Yushanzi is 500!" Liu Dong said.
"500?500 is not a lot!" Hong Lao nodded.
Hong Lao, who served as a consultant to the Palace Museum, did not say anything more about this. Because he also knows that the preservation of precious cultural relics is a very strict proposition. In particular, when welcoming visitors, strict flow restrictions must be enforced. Otherwise, there will be a broken ankle of the statue of David, the treasure of the Louvre Museum in France!
"Xiaodong, those rooms next to it are also separate exhibition rooms?" Dong Lao pointed to the several exhibition rooms next to him that were open, but they were also crowded, but they didn't want to be almost crowded in the Yaochi Sacred Realm Pavilion.
"Well, there are three of them!"
As soon as Liu Dong's voice fell, Old Man Hong couldn't wait to walk over, "Let's go, take a look!"
Of course, no one objected to his words, with the pearl and jade of the Yaochi Holy Realm Yushanzi in front, it was obvious that the things that could open up a separate exhibition room for exhibition must not be ordinary!
In fact, their guess is not wrong!
In a pair of Kangxi Nine Dragon Jade Cups, a total of 18 dragons with clear toes and claws swam in the cup full of liquor When the situation appeared in the eyes of everyone, almost all the onlookers were moved.
When the 'Sui Zhu and Bi' are known in the world as the Sui Hou Jiuqu Beads, when the beads present a magical situation like the cosmic starry sky, almost everyone is dumbfounded.
When 200 pieces, the largest diameter of 40 centimeters, comparable to a basin, the smallest diameter of 10 centimeters, comparable to an adult's fist, and like water, flowers, and out of the water to show translucent silver-white pearls, also known as 'shark tears', when the rare treasures are presented in front of everyone's eyes, everyone understands the miracle of nature's creation! )
