"What's wrong?"

Mu Qingsi noticed the change in Yang Chen's expression and hurriedly asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Chen shook his head: "How could it be, how could that thing appear here?" No, no, no, it can't be! ”

This auction item donated by Wang Meimei is a mirror. A bronze mirror, to be exact. The bronze mirror has a simple and elegant pattern, without a handle, and the size is about half a foot square.

However, if you look closely, this does not look like an ancient bronze mirror, because the whole bronze mirror looks relatively new, not like an antique, but like a modern imitation.

However, if you look closely, you will find that the production style of this bronze mirror and so on, but it cannot be a modern product.

Because of the high imitation of modern times, even if it claims to restore ancient crafts, it is actually just propaganda, and it is impossible to really restore ancient crafts. In addition to technology, there are also differences in materials in ancient crafts. A certain process may not be technically good, but because of the material, it becomes an unreproducible sound.

And this bronze mirror is exactly that.

It has its own characteristics in terms of mirror, color, and overall molding. These characteristics are entirely due to the material, and cannot be reproduced by simple techniques.

And these characteristics are very consistent with the characteristics of the famous copper jianjian production in a certain period of ancient history, which is at least the antiquities before the Han Dynasty. If that's the case, it's worth a lot of money.

Of course, if you are not a person who has expertise in cultural relics appreciation, you will not be able to see this. At best, they can only think that this thing is relatively "new" and does not look particularly reliable.

Therefore, after the auction item was taken out, everyone's price increase was not particularly enthusiastic. It's barely a $5,000 increase each time. If it weren't for the fact that this was taken out by Wang Meimei, the daughter of the party organizer, she would have to give some face, and it would be possible to miss the auction.

But Yang Chen frowned even more.

At this time, Wang Meimei was unhappy.

Although her beloved baby has a small price, it may not be bought by others, but will fall into the hands of someone she has arranged in advance, so that she does not have to worry about the loss of the baby, but the strange eyes of others make her vanity unbearable.

"What's going on? You don't have to fool people like this, do you? ”

"But isn't it, it's a modern high-quality imitation, and the low price is actually 1.5 million? This is clearly for black money. ”

"Oh, after all, it's a party organized by others, and if people want to cheat you for money, there's no way. Anyway, your money is going to be donated, so think of it as a good intention. ”

……

Wait, wait, wait, a dry of people whispered, so that Wang Meimei's face suddenly couldn't hold back and became red.

"Black money? Pit people? Hmph, today I'm going to show you what a treasure is! ”

Thinking about it, Wang Meimei asked people to pass a few words to the auctioneer.

The auctioneer, who was a little listless because of the lack of enthusiasm in the auction, suddenly became as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, this lot is very valuable, don't miss it!" I repeat, don't miss it! ”

There was no reaction and indifference below.

"You may be a little puzzled and don't understand what is precious about this ancient mirror, so now I will show it to you."

The auctioneer, of course, knew what everyone was thinking, so he continued.

"Show? And what is there to show? ”

"Hehe, there is such a twist? It doesn't hurt to see ......."

In the whispers of people, the auctioneer held the ancient mirror in his hand high and showed the front and back to everyone: "Please look at the front and back of this ancient mirror." ”

The gaffer reacted in a timely manner and hit the strong light on the ancient mirror, so that every detail of the ancient mirror was meticulously revealed.

It's also a rare thing.

Because ordinary cultural relics and antiques, under normal circumstances, can not be irradiated with strong light, so as not to cause loss to cultural relics. Why are photos not allowed in museums like the Forbidden City? Because the flash light between the photographs is a strong light, it will have a negative impact on the cultural relics.

The same is true for today's auction, where the rest of the antique lots don't shine brightly. The only one with a bright light was this one.

People clearly saw every detail of the ancient mirror, but nothing strange happened.

Then, the bright light disappeared, and behind the auctioneer, someone came up and set up a projection screen.

Then, a soft light came down and hit the mirror surface of the ancient mirror in the auctioneer's hand, and the auctioneer adjusted the angle of the ancient mirror in his hand, just projecting the reflected light onto the screen.

The next moment, the audience let out a loud exclamation.

Because, unlike the ordinary mirror reflection in everyone's imagination, this time the reflection is projected on the screen with vivid and clear patterns.

"This ...... These patterns are those on the back of the copper mirror! ”

Someone has already exclaimed.

was reminded by him like this, and the others immediately reacted: "That's right, it's really the pattern on the back of the copper mirror!" However, those patterns are obviously on the back, why can the light reflected from the mirror actually project these patterns? This is an opaque copper mirror, not a transparent glass mirror! ”

"Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

"It's a treasure! Today is not in vain! ”

"One and a half million? No, it's too cheap! I'm out of two million! ”

"What is two million? I'll give 2.5 million! ”

"Three million!"

……

Without waiting for the auctioneer to speak, everyone was already bidding.

"Good stuff! Great stuff! What a national treasure! ”

"A national treasure? No, no, no, this is not a national treasure, if you look closely at the style of the ancient mirror, you will find that this is not the style of the traditional Chinese country, but the style of ancient Japanese utensils. An expert in cultural relics said: "However, the ancient Japanese culture is deeply influenced by our Chinese country, and the differences are relatively subtle, and it is normal for you not to recognize them." ”

"Japan's? How did you come to China? ”

"Then I don't know. But I heard that Miss Wang Meimei just came back from Japan, maybe she came back from Japan. Well, well, it has always been the loss of Chinese cultural relics to foreign countries, and today there are foreign cultural relics entering China, well done! It seems that these children of the family are not just just eating, drinking and having fun, and they are still somewhat useful. This cultural relics connoisseur now looks at Wang Meimei more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Feng Lao, so what is precious about this cultural relic?"

"This cultural relic should actually have a very close relationship with our country." Feng Lao replied: "First of all, this kind of copper mirror that can transmit the pattern on the back of the copper mirror is called a transparent mirror, which is a great invention of the ancient bronze mirror in China, and it is recorded in the middle of Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Pen Talk" in the Song Dynasty. ”

Saying that, he was full of interest and began to memorize the original text of "Mengxi Pen Talk": "The world has a transparent light, and there is an inscription on the back...... In order to learn from the sun, then the text is ...... It's all on the walls of the house, and it's clear...... The Yu family has three ...... It's all the same...... Only this one is as transparent, and other thin ones cannot be transparent. The ancient people have their own tricks......"

After reciting it, he explained: "Shen Kuo said that this kind of light transmission can reflect the text and patterns on the back on the wall, which is very clear. He has other ancient mirrors with the same shape in his home, but only this side can transmit light, and the others cannot transmit light no matter how thin they are, so it should be a special technique of the ancients. ”

"So can modern people reproduce this technology?" Someone asked.

Feng Lao shook his head: "No." There are two collections in the Magic Capital History Museum in China, which are the translucent mirrors of the Western Han Dynasty, with words on the back, one text is 'Inner Clear Quality to Zhaoming', and the other is 'Seeing the Light of the Sun, the World is Ming', all of which are priceless national treasures. Some experts have tried to replicate the study, but the results have failed. Unfortunately, it was not possible to conduct destructive analysis and research on cultural relics, so I finally gave up. ”

Everyone's mouths suddenly couldn't close.

The fact that the technology is not reproducible means that the value of this thing is quite high. Not to mention its historical value, but only its own technical value, which is immeasurable.

In the past, I didn't dare to do destructive research because I only had two national treasures, but now it's different. After all, this thing is not a Chinese cultural relic, but a foreign cultural relic, or a cultural relic of Japan, a country with a long history of grudges.

All in all, Wang Meimei is indeed satisfied this time, and everyone is praising her for her generosity:

"Such a treasure is actually willing to donate it for auction, this blood is ......"

"Alas, there are only three similar bronze mirrors in the world, and I will definitely be reluctant to replace them anyway. If you want me to contribute money, it's okay to give tens of millions of dollars, but if you want me to donate it, it's impossible! ”

"Or is it the king of gold bricks? You, you can't be a king in this life. ”

"If you want me to see it, it is estimated that she is just making a show, there must be a trust to come forward secretly, and in the end she still has to buy things back."

"Well, that's a very reasonable thing. However, do you think we should cut off his beard? ”

"Forget it, then. This one is too offensive......"

"Hey......

Some people laughed but said nothing about the suggestion of cutting off their beards. As for whether it will not be cut off or not, it is difficult to say......

However, the reaction of other people is not enough, and the Japanese who were invited to come today are in a mess:

"Baga! Who would have sold such a national treasure to the Chinese people? ”

"Damn! The people who buy things are really non-nationals! Heaven must be punished! ”

"No, no, no! This thing must be bought! ”

"You have to get your hands on something, but why do you have to buy it? We sold it to them cheaply, but in the end we bought it back at a large price, didn't this make these people pit Japan? ”

Some people are murderous, some people are anxious, some people are cold and ruthless, and the overall atmosphere has become the same.

As for Yang Chen, he was already so shocked that he couldn't speak!
