Chapter 110: Nine-Eyed Dzi
Chapter 110: Nine-Eyed Dzi
……
After briefly explaining to Chen Bao the rules of hand-in-hand in the domestic antique shop, the two continued to wander around the ghost market.
"By the way, Brother Dong, I saw that the bead chain you bought just now is not good-looking, is it really an antique?"
"Isn't it good-looking?" Liu Dong shook his head, and then said, "Do you know the dzi?"
"Dzi, I don't know!" Chen Bao shook his head honestly.
Liu Dong is not surprised by this, many people in China now don't know much about dzi, not to mention Chen Bao, a Chinese who grew up in the UK!
"Dzi is a sacred relic of Tibetan Buddhism, which means solemn, special, auspicious, rich, attained, beautiful, noble and elegant. From ancient times to the present, Tibetans generally believe that the dzi is a jewelry worn by the gods with special magical powers, and it is a special auspicious jewelry that the gods help human beings to overcome hardships and disasters, turn evil into good fortune, and become auspicious in times of trouble. Therefore, the more precious the dzi is, the more sought after by Tibetans and Buddhists, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a thousand gold!" Liu Dong explained.
"So powerful?"
"What do you think? If it weren't for the extraordinary significance of the dzi and the treasure of the natural ancient dzi, do you think I would be so happy to buy it?" As he spoke, Liu Dong took out the dzi bracelet he had just bought and rubbed it with love.
"Brother Dong, show me?"
Looking at the curious look on Chen Bao's face, Liu Dong handed over the bead string, "Look, but don't break it for me, this is a 500-year-old 'Tianyan Dzi'!"
"Tianyan Dzi?" asked Chen Bao with a curious look.
"Well, Tianyan Dzi is also called Tianyan Stone. It is a rare gemstone. It is a type of sedimentary rock. Contains jade and agate. It is also said that it is a Martian meteorite. From a very early age, it was mined by the Tibetans and processed into dzi. According to the material of Tianyan stone, it can be divided into one eye to thirteen eyes, vase, lotus, tiger stripes, heaven and earth, horse teeth, thread beads, round plate beads, longevity beads and so on. Determine its value by its appearance and age, there are many eyes at one eye and two eyes, and there are fewer eyes with more than three eyes.
"How much is the thirteen-eyed dzi?" Chen Bao nodded and said curiously.
"I don't know!"
"Don't you know?"
"I know about the dzi, but the thirteen-eyed dzi has always been just a legend, and no one knows if there is one! It's just like China's He's Bi. No one can be sure if it exists, so the price is incalculable!"
After explaining, Liu Dong glanced at Chen Bao and took the string of beads from his hand, "Although I can't tell you the price of the Thirteen-Eyed Heavenly Eye Dzi, if it is a Nine-Eyed Dzi, it will be no less than 3 million!"
"3 million?200,000 pounds, that's not too expensive!" Chen Bao frowned.
For him, who has lived in a wealthy family since he was a child, 200,000 pounds is indeed not a big number!
And after hearing this, Liu Dong glanced at him and didn't say anything more!
3,000,000 Huaxia coins is only the market price of the 'Nine-Eyed Heavenly Eye Dzi' that Liu Dong said! If this Nine-Eyed Dzi has been opened by a Buddhist monk. Or if you have been wearing it for decades and have become a Buddhist object. That's worth easily doubled.
Moreover, the nine-eyed dzi belongs to the priceless market!
Now it's not just money that can be bought, but also chance!
Thinking of this, Liu Dong's heart moved, and then he saw that under the repair of the relics Yuanguang, all the natural paint and dust stained on the nine dzi beads were swept away. Nine translucent dzi beads shimmered with amber brilliance in the dim light around them were revealed.
Liu Dong quickly counted it, there were nine 'eyes' on the eight dzi, and although the middle dzi was not the most precious thirteen eyes, it was only slightly worse than the thirteen-eyed dzi!
Feeling the surging Buddha light on the dzi, Liu Dong suppressed the slightly excited mood in his heart, and did not use the relics to absorb it. In addition to not wanting this Heavenly Bead Buddha Artifact to lose the most precious Buddha light, the most important thing is that these Buddha lights can't wish him to break through the current internal strength realm.
It's a pity to discard it if it's tasteless!
After all, this is not inferior to the treasure of the Jokhang Temple in Tibetan Province to enshrine the national treasure nine-eyed 'Conch Dzi'!
And because of the scarcity of raw materials, the conch dzi and the eye dzi, these two old dzi have been handed down more and more!
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Dong put this precious string of nine-eyed dzi on his wrist!
Something that represents the beautiful vision of mankind, Liu Dong naturally likes it very much.
But just as he put on the dzi, he heard a loud shout from behind him!
"Stop!"
The familiar voice made Liu Dong immediately turn around, and then saw Chen Bao grabbing the arm of a middle-aged man in a black coat with an excited face.
"What are you doing?" the middle-aged man was obviously taken aback by Chen Bao's loud voice.
However, after following the flashlight to see Chen Bao's appearance clearly, the panicked look on his face disappeared! While breathing a sigh of relief, he obviously recognized Chen Bao.
"What are you doing? Yesterday afternoon, it was you who blew a broken bottle that was worthless for 100 yuan into the imperial porcelain of the Tang Dynasty, and I spent more than 10,000 yuan in vain, and fell for your big mistake! I wanted to wait for dawn to look for you, but I didn't expect to run into you again here. Let's go, follow me to the Public Security Bureau!" Chen Bao took the middle-aged man's arm and walked out.
"Hey, I said that there is something wrong with you, don't you know that you don't understand the rules, you have no regrets, and you don't look for a way back?" After shaking off Chen Bao's hand, the middle-aged man said loudly.
Originally, the atmosphere in the ghost market was very quiet, and everyone deliberately lowered their voices when talking about business. So as soon as the two of them quarreled, they immediately attracted the attention of hundreds of people within a few hundred meters around.
However, there are not many people who come around to see the excitement.
Because the people who visit the ghost market are all veterans in the antique shop in Sijiu City, this kind of newcomer enters the industry, and they have already seen countless times when they come back to find the way back after suffering losses, and there is nothing new anymore!
It's just that those who are new to the industry come over once in a while!
For the old worms, they prefer to spend a little time on a dazzling array of antiques, if they can find a good treasure from it, it will not be worth the two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, get up and walk around the ghost market!
Looking at the two who had already quarreled, Liu Dong shook his head and immediately walked up!
No regrets are the rules in the antique industry, Chen Bao just entered the industry and didn't know that it didn't matter, but as a friend and cousin, he couldn't turn a blind eye.
"I'm sorry, my brother has just entered the industry and doesn't know the rules! I apologize to you for him!"
"Brother Dong, it's obvious that he lied to us, why do you want us to apologize......" Chen Bao said angrily.
"Say no more!"
After hearing Liu Dong's slightly stern words, Chen Bao pursed his mouth, and after snorting coldly, he didn't say anything more with a stinky face.
"I didn't expect you to look young, and you are still a reasonable ......!" said that, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and after quickly looking Liu Dong up and down, he said with surprise, "I take the liberty to ask, are you Mr. Liu Dong?"
"Do you know me?" After being stunned for a moment, Liu Dong said.
"Oh, Mr. Liu's name, who doesn't know the owners of the antique shops in the entire Sijiu City?
Looking at the thumbs up of the middle-aged man, Liu Dong smiled indifferently: "You have won the prize!"
"No, no, it's not a prize at all, and now when the industry mentions that you were in Hong Kong last year to earn face for our mainland collection association, everyone gives a thumbs up......!
"Wait, sir! Thank you for the compliment, my achievements are nothing compared to those of my predecessors in the industry. In addition, it is a ghost market now, it is not easy for our brothers to come at night, if there is nothing to do here, we will continue to shop!" Liu Dong hurriedly said after interrupting the other party's rather rambling words.
If it is not necessary, Liu Dong is a person who does not like to be watched by people very much. He was quiet, and after seeing more and more people around him, he already had the idea of leaving.
was interrupted by Liu Dong, the middle-aged man was not annoyed, and after thinking for a while, he quickly said to Liu Dong: "I know that Mr. Liu likes to collect antiques, and it just so happens that I still have a few good things there, I wonder if Mr. Liu is willing to take a look?"
"Good thing?" Liu Dong, who turned around and left politely, immediately pressed the ** who left.
"Yes, Qiu Ying's real works, I don't think Mr. Liu will dislike it, right?" said the middle-aged man.
The four families of Wumen in the Ming Dynasty, Qiu Ying's calligraphy and painting works with Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin, Liu Dong certainly liked it.
"I think that as long as I play collecting, no one will refuse to get Qiu Ying's original paintings and calligraphy, and I am naturally no exception. If my husband is going to sell me this painting, I'd love to see it!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Hehe, of course I'm willing to sell this painting to Mr. Liu!"
"Then please!" Liu Dong was not polite.
"Please!"
Seeing that the two were about to turn around and leave together, Chen Bao hurriedly grabbed Liu Dong's arm and whispered: "Brother Dong, this guy is a liar, let's go, don't cheat him again!"
"Don't worry! I know it in my heart!" After patting Chen Bao's arm, Liu Dong smiled.
In this world, Liu Dong has never seen anything that can hide his relics from Yuanguang! )
