"The head of the cicada is carved powerfully, the tail is arc-shaped and convergent, the dorsal ridge line is raised, and the eyes and wings are carved out by the subtraction method, and the shape of the instrument is flat, which is indeed the technique of the Han Eight Knife. Mu Lao's old eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile.

"What a beautiful jade cicada. ”

Ruan Xinxue's beautiful eyes are slightly bright, and women are always irresistible to jade jewelry and the like.

"I mean, I guess I got this thing from a dead man. ”

Qin Yang's brows furrowed slightly.

This jade cicada of the Han Dynasty has no aura at all, and it also comes with a little yin qi, although it will not cause any harm to the human body, but it will not benefit at all.

"Hehe, Xiaoyou is right, to be exact, it should be pulled out of the mouth of a dead man in the Han Dynasty. ”

As soon as Mu Lao heard it, he knew that Qin Yang didn't understand antique jade, and said with a smile at the moment.

"Forehead ......"

Ruan Xinxue's face stiffened, and Shicai was still a little tempted to buy this jade cicada, but after listening to Mu Lao's words, this thought was immediately gone.

The ancients carved the jade into the shape of a cicada, which is to give the deceased a specific meaning with the help of the physiological habits of the cicada, that is, after death, people do not eat and drink dew, and are born out of the turbid dirt, do not stick to the mud and muddy water, and appear as a mouth jade in the funeral jade. Mu Lao explained with a smile.

"Snow girl, this little thing that appeared on the stage is good, and it has a great collection value. Zhou Lao on the side said with a smile.

"Don't. ”

When Ruan Xinxue heard this, she waved her little hands again and again, and she couldn't stand the things that came out of the dead man's mouth, and she should have nightmares at night.

"Haha......"

Old Zhou seemed to know Ruan Xinxue's thoughts, and laughed.

"This first auction item, the Han Dynasty mutton fat white jade cicada, the reserve price is 700,000 yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 5,000 yuan each time, and now the auction begins!" the auctioneer struck the auction hammer.

"Seven hundred and twenty thousand!"

"750,000 ......"

"I'll give 800,000 ......"

“……”

"Mr. No. 43 bid 960,000, is there anything higher, that, the No. 26 guest bid 1 million, 1 million, okay, that Mr. 77, bid 1.02 million ......"

The first auction item was well chosen, the competition was fierce, and the price climbed all the way, and soon broke a million.

"They are all masters who are not bad for money. ”

Qin Yang muttered, this jade cicada can be used as a collection thing, and it is not a good thing to wear it on your body often.

"One million and one million. ”

"One million and one hundred and twenty thousand!"

“……”

"My old man is also very fond of this little thing. ”

Zhou Lao smiled and held up the sign.

"One and a half million. ”

Zhou Lao quoted a price that he thought was suitable at the moment, and directly raised the price by three or four hundred thousand, in order to scare off other competitors.

However, it backfired, seeing that Zhou Lao also participated in the competition, the jade cicada that had slowed down the price broke out again, Zhou Lao is an expert in the jade world, and even he participated in the auction, which shows that this little thing is good.

"One million seven million. ”

"1,750,000 ......"

“……”

In the end, this Han Dynasty jade cicada was auctioned off by a wealthy businessman at a price of 2.15 million.

"Hey, these people don't know that the price of more than two million is a bit too high for an old man. ”

Zhou Lao smiled bitterly, it seems that he will not be able to directly participate in the auction in the future.

"Old man Zhou, you just watch it carefully, you have nothing to do to make the limelight. Mu Yueshan saw that Zhou Yihai was deflated by the auction, and immediately was overjoyed and said with a smile.

With the good start of the first auction work, the auctioneer's spirit is more full, and his voice is more loud and excited, after all, the total amount of this auction is linked to the remuneration he receives.

"The auction item just now is an ancient jade artifact from the Western Han Dynasty, and the next auction is the work of a modern jade carving master. ”

As the words fell, as usual, a hostess in a white cheongsam pushed a small cart covered with a red cloth and walked up to the stage.

The red cloth was lifted, and a clear and flawless leopard-shaped jade carving appeared in everyone's field of vision, the leopard-shaped jade carving was only the size of a palm, colorless and transparent, clear as ice, giving people a feeling of ice and jade.

This work is called the ice leopard, is the jade carving master Feng Siyuan Mr. Feng Lao's early works, the raw material used is the colorless ice jade material, Master Feng with a very concise knife technique, depicted a body of a handsome leopard, natural, please take a look. ”

After the auctioneer finished speaking, a 360-degree picture of the leopard-shaped jade carving appeared on the electronic screen, while the lady in the dress pushed a small cart among the guests to get a closer look.

Qin Yang's eyes were slightly condensed, and there was a touch of joy on his face, this jade jade carving work did have a little aura, but it was not as much aura as Ruan Xinxue's ice green jade bracelet, however, this also proved that his guess was correct, the jade on the earth did contain aura that could be used for cultivation.

It's a pity that he only has 10,000 yuan on him, and if he wants to buy this jade carving work, it is definitely not enough.

After the hostess pushed around the guests, she pushed the leopard-shaped jade carving back to the auction table.

"The leopard itself is the embodiment of the evil beast, has the beauty of avoiding evil spirits, turning evil into good fortune, and with the same "hug" and "bao" homonym, there is the auspicious meaning of "hugging" and "baozi", if the distinguished guests present want to give birth to a white and chubby son, this jade carving work can not be missed. ”

The auctioneer was beaming and boasted with a smile on his face.

"This guy is really a lotus with a lotus tongue, it's all involved. Ruan Xinxue said with a smile.

"Hehe, Snow Girl, you don't understand this. 'The gentleman has no reason, the jade does not go to the body', in ancient China, jade was regarded as a symbol of beautiful goods and a symbol of the gentleman's demeanor, each jade carving work created has its beautiful meaning, leopard-shaped jade carving works, there are indeed two layers of meaning he said. Mu Lao explained with a smile.

"Oh, there are so many more doorways. Ruan Xinxue was surprised and nodded.

"This piece of master Feng Siyuan's jade carving work, the reserve price is 880,000 yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 10,000 yuan each time, and now, the auction begins. The auctioneer announced.

"900,000 ......"

"930,000 ......"

“……”

"Guest No. 83 bid 1.2 million, is there anything higher, well, this lady No. 56 bid 1.25 million ......"

“……”

In the hall, the auctioneer's high-pitched voice drove the atmosphere of the entire venue, and the sound of price increases came and went, and finally, this leopard-shaped jade carving work was pocketed by a lady at a price of 2.68 million.

"Hey, it's a pity, this jade carving work is just a colorless jade material of the ice species, if it is an ice material such as emerald or full green, the price is tens of millions. Zhou Lao sighed softly.

"Old man Zhou, your requirements are too high, this jade carving work is the work of Feng Siyuan when he was young, at that time, who dared to let him carve such good materials, it would be good to have an ice seed material carving. Mu Lao said with a smile.
