Chapter 150: Fang La's Sword

Rong Bao Zhai is very big, just now Gu Yu Zhai and Rong Bao Zhai compared to the river to the ocean, there is no comparable surname at all.

Rong Bao Zhai has a total of three floors, the hall on a single floor is more than ten times larger than the ancient Yu Zhai just now, the hall is very clean, and there are many displays blocked with glass cabinets, which makes Li Yang feel that this is not an antique shop, but a museum.

In fact, Li Yang didn't know that Rong Bao Zhai itself has the title of 'Folk Forbidden City', and all the displays in the hall are not for sale of Rong Bao Zhai, which is higher than the value of the displays in ordinary provincial museums.

Around the hall, there are more than a dozen different cubicles, and there are many people in both the hall and these cubicles, and this place is more like a big market than the deserted appearance of other small shops.

Li Yang is the first time to see an antique shop of this scale, and after coming in, he can't help but be a little dazed, looking around like Grandma Liu has entered the Grand View Garden, if Li Yang can see his image at this time, he will definitely scold himself for not being angry, like a dirt bun.

Zheng Kaida's performance is much stronger than Li Yang's, Rong Bao Zhai is not the first time he has come, he has several collectibles in his hands that Rong Bao Zhai obtained, like the rosewood table that Li Yang saw at Zheng Kaida's house last time, Zheng Kaida bought it here at a great price.

Constantly looking at the displays around Rong Bao Zhai, Li Yang secretly sighed that this trip to the glaze factory was not in vain, some of the boutiques usually have no chance to see, I really didn't expect that they would all appear in an antique shop.

"Brother Li, let's go up to the second floor!"

Zheng Kaida gently pulled Li Yang, if he didn't remind him, Li Yang would probably be reluctant to leave on this floor.

There is also a hall on the second floor, which also displays a lot of fine products, but the value of things on the second floor is far higher than that on the first floor, and the title of the Folk Palace is not for nothing.

There are also compartments around the hall on the second floor, but these compartments are much larger than those on the first floor, and not as many as on the first floor, and there are only six compartments on the entire second floor, and from the outside you can see the counters inside and the exquisite antiques placed in the counters.

"Boss Zheng, you're here!"

Li Yang and the others had just gone up to the second floor when a middle-aged man in a black suit and tie greeted him, and the man in the black suit also had glasses on his face, looking polite.

"Hello Manager Su, I'm here to pick up something, by the way, I'm looking at any other good things!"

Zheng Kaida smiled at the man in the black suit, this man in the black suit is called Su Zhan, and he is the manager of the second floor of Rong Bao Zhai, Zheng Kaida has been coming to Rong Bao Zhai a lot in recent years, and he has long been familiar with Su Zhan.

"Boss Zheng, how dare we be sloppy with what you want, we have already prepared it for you, just waiting for you to get it!"

Su Zhan seemed to have a spring breeze on his face, and said to Zheng Kaida very politely, but directly ignored Li Yang and Liu Gang next to Zheng Kaida, it is estimated that Su Zhan regarded Li Yang and Liu Gang as Zheng Kaida's bodyguards or drivers or the like.

Li Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly, such a thing as being with Zheng Kaida has not happened rarely, but fortunately, he is used to it, and he doesn't care about Su Zhan's attitude.

Li Yang didn't care, but Zheng Kaida couldn't care, and after greeting Su Zhan, he immediately pointed to Li Yang beside him and said, "Manager Su, let me introduce you, this is my good brother and my partner in opening an auction company this time, Li Yang!" ”

Su Zhan Zheng Kaida didn't say anything about Li Yang's recognition of Zhou Fangzi Gangyu, there are many experts in Rong Bao Zhai, and several of them are the top in China, and Li Yang's current achievements are not proud of the capital here.

Su Zhan's face showed a burst of surprise, Zheng Kaida is an old customer of Rong Bao Zhai, and he is also a big customer, Zheng Kaida buys at least millions of things here every year, so Su Zhan still has a certain understanding of Zheng Kaida.

He knew about Zheng Kaida's opening of an auction company in Zhengzhou this time, and he also knew that Zheng Kaida's auction company had invested a lot, which was 200 million. The young man in front of him, who was dressed very ordinarily, was actually Zheng Kaida's partner, and looking at Zheng Kaida's attitude, he still attached great importance to this partner.

Su Zhan had a familiar feeling with the name Li Yang, but he didn't think about it, a name like Li Yang had to have 8,000 if there were not 10,000 in the country, it was too ordinary.

"I'm really embarrassed, I really didn't expect you to do such a big business at such a young age, Boss Li!"

After Zheng Kaida's introduction, Su Zhan immediately took the initiative to hold Li Yang's hand, and praised Li Yang again and again, which made Li Yang a little embarrassed.

"Manager Su, Brother Li is not a stingy person, hurry up and take me to see those things, I have limited time to come to Yanjing this time, can I see more and buy more!"

Seeing that Su Zhan was still polite, Zheng Kaida hurriedly reminded that Zheng Kaida was actually very anxious about the things he ordered.

"Haha, okay, Boss Zheng, don't worry, you'll see you soon!"

Su Zhan laughed, and took Zheng Kaida and they walked towards a compartment, this compartment is very luxuriously decorated, and the area is as big as an ordinary antique shop, but the things inside are much better than the outside, and they are all boutiques.

Li Yang took a closer look, and there were mainly miscellaneous antiques in this compartment, including gilded Buddha statues, some ancient weapons, and even a few gold and silver ingots.

"The first floor of Rong Bao Zhai sells things below 30,000 yuan, and good things between 30,000 and 1 million can only be seen on the second floor!"

After entering this compartment, Zheng Kaida explained to Li Yang in a low voice, Li Yang immediately nodded, no wonder these things look very good, and the value is there.

"Boss Zheng, this is the ancient sword you wanted!"

When the two were talking, Su Zhan had already walked over with a delicate rectangular wooden box and placed it on the glass counter in front of Zheng Kaida.

The corners of Zheng Kaida's eyes twitched unnaturally, and he immediately stepped forward to open the rectangular wooden box, and an ancient sword with a delicate wooden sheath was placed inside.

Li Yang also leaned over to take a look, although Zheng Kaida tried to hide it, he still showed an excited look on his face when he saw this ancient sword, and it could be seen that Zheng Kaida valued this ancient sword very much.

"Boss Zheng, you have taken a big advantage this time, we didn't know that this ancient sword had a great origin, so we sold it to you at a price of 500,000, and later we learned that this was originally Fang La's sword in the Song Dynasty, if you knew it, you might not be able to take 500,000!"

Su Zhan looked at Zheng Kaida with a smile, he was very satisfied with Zheng Kaida's expression, many rich businessmen would unnaturally show this excitement when they saw their antique boutiques here.

"Fang La used it, is this true?"

Zheng Kaida was obviously stunned, and then his face became even more excited, and he slowly took out the ancient sword from the wooden box, carefully inspected the ancient sword, and did not let go of any small places.

"Of course it's true, this is what our expert Hou Lao said personally, can there be a fake?"

Su Zhan showed a hint of pride, Zheng Kaida nodded, Hou Lao is an expert on the second floor of Rong Bao Zhai, although he is not as good as the top experts on the third floor, but he is much stronger than him Zheng Kaida, even in the country, Hou Lao is also famous.

"It shouldn't be, this ancient sword is from the Northern Song Dynasty, but I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Fang La!"

Li Yang shook his head suddenly and said softly. This sword has a length of about seventy centimeters, and the sword body has fifteen layers of pale yellow aperture, but unfortunately the scabbard is newly made, not a matching thing, but if the scabbard is also the original, I'm afraid Zheng Kaida can't buy it for 500,000.

"Mr. Li, why do you think this sword has nothing to do with Fang La?"

Su Zhan's eyes showed surprise, he looked at Li Yang and then at Zheng Kaida, he didn't dare to despise Li Yang after knowing that Li Yang was Zheng Kaida's partner, but his attitude towards antiques was different, Li Yang was too young after all, and Su Zhan's eyes were obviously disbelieving now.

"Manager Su, there is a reason why I said that it is not Fang La's saber, the ancients generally chose swords that were tailor-made, with long swords for tall people and short swords for short swords, which is convenient to use. We all know the story of Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin, King Qin was short, but he used a long sword, and he couldn't pull it out under nervousness, and he almost broke the big thing! ”

Li Yang shook his head lightly, and pointed to the ancient sword in Zheng Kaida's hand and said: "Short people don't use long swords, and tall people don't use short swords, according to historical records, Fang La is six feet tall, and now he is two meters tall, even if there are no two meters, there are still more than one meter nine, can such a tall man use such a short sword, it looks very unsuitable in his hand!" Su Zhan looked at Li Yang blankly, he really didn't know how tall Fang La was, but the ancient swords were indeed chosen according to their height, and he was still very clear about this common sense.

In fact, in ancient cold weapons, the saber is a kind of ornament, not a weapon commonly used by knights in movies and television, and the most used by soldiers in war are bows and arrows and spears, and the sword is basically useless if it is on the battlefield.

In ancient times, the literati who liked swords the most, and the representatives of the literati, Qu Yuan and Li Bai, both had swords, especially Li Bai, who liked to hold a sword wherever he went, and many descriptions of Li Bai were also related to swords.

"You're just guessing, and it can't be a reason why this isn't Fang La's sword!"

A voice suddenly came from behind several people, and I don't know when a man of about sixty years old walked in, this person's face was tense and he seemed to be very unhappy.

"Old Hou, you're here!"

Su Zhan immediately left Zheng Kaida and Li Yang, stepped forward and bowed respectfully and said, Zheng Kaida also looked at this person with respect, but Li Yang's face showed a burst of surprise. This Hou Lao is the one who judged this sword for Fang La, and now that he has overturned the judgment of others, people will definitely be unhappy.

However, seeing that his age is not too big, I don't know why Su Zhan wants to call him Hou Lao, adding an old word sounds like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

"Old Hou, I think what Li Yang said is very reasonable, I hope this is Fang La's sword, but you see that this sword is too short, even I don't think it is long when I hold it, not to mention the very tall Fang La!"

Zheng Kaida said euphemistically, although he respected this Hou Lao, and Li Yang were his own people after all, he would definitely want to be his own people at this time.
