PS: Today's first more monthly pass, please support more, thank you.

The so-called insiders look at the doorway, and the laymen look at the excitement. For this golden branch and jade leaf, Wang Guan can see some clues on the jade leaf, but his eyes are dark on the golden cicada.

However, the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and after careful observation, Wang Guan found a situation on the golden cicada that may be more special. As I said before, the image of the entire cicada body is realistic and lifelike, and it is completely the same size as the real cicada.

When I looked down from above, I just felt that the things were very delicate and ingenious, and I didn't find anything. But when adjusting the angle and looking at it again, especially when looking at the tail end of the cicada wing, Wang Guan found a needle-like hole.

"It's weird."

Seeing this situation, Wang Guan was a little puzzled, he still thought that the golden cicada was solid, but what was the matter with this pinhole? Could it be the traces of some kind of craftsmanship?

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Guan weighed things again, and he didn't feel that there was anything special about the weight. Although both the golden cicada and the jade leaf look very light, in fact, gold and jade are both weighty things. If the two are combined, it will naturally be a bit overwhelming.

Judging from the weight, there is no doubt that something should be solid. But the extra pinholes made Wang Guan curious. After watching it for a while, he was still puzzled, and he was curious and simply used his ability.

Under Wang Guan's gaze, the golden cicada instantly became transparent, and all the mysteries were naturally exposed.

"I see......"

For a moment, Wang Guan had a bit of surprise on his face, and he realized that he had not only picked up a small leak, but also hit a big luck.

"Wang Guan, did you find anything?"

Not to mention the aftertaste, Fang Mingsheng is a good hand at observing faces, seeing Wang Guanxi's appearance, he immediately asked: "Do you know the origin of things?" ”

"Almost."

At this time. Wang Guan withdrew his ability, picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee, which can be regarded as stabilizing his excitement, but the smile on his face could not be contained: "Absolutely, this is something from the Ming Dynasty." ”

"So sure." The aftertaste is a little curious, not questioning, just casually. After all, he specializes in porcelain, and he doesn't know anything about things like gold and jade.

"Just look at the overall style...... Wang Guan perfunctory, he can't say that he saw the color of Baoguang, so he knows what age it is.

Anyway, Fang Mingsheng and the aftertaste don't understand much. I listened with relish, but there was no doubt. Moreover, what Wang Guan said was indeed the characteristics of gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty, but it was relatively large, but he did not deliberately fool people and children.

"None of that's the point, though."

After talking about it, Wang Guan was also a little embarrassed, and then smiled as if compensating: "The point is that this golden cicada is not as simple as it seems on the surface. ”

"What do you mean?" Fang Mingsheng and Yu Wei were naturally stunned, and couldn't help but look at the golden cicada. I don't think there's anything special about it, except that it feels very realistic.

Wang Guan smiled mysteriously, and then asked, "Do you have needles?" ”

"Needle?"

The others were stunned, but they didn't hear clearly. Or wonder if there is a difference between what you hear and what you imagined. After all, they couldn't figure out what Wang Guan wanted to do for no reason.

"It's a needle for sewing clothes, or a brooch or a pin." Wang Guan added: "Otherwise, it's a relatively sharp wire, and if it's not good, just take a toothpick......

It is said that Westerners are more accustomed to flossing. There are very few toothpicks and the like, and cafes certainly don't have them anyway. However, while everyone was fumbling, Yuwei took out a bunch of keys. Among them was a small needle-shaped pick: "Okay, right?" ”

"No problem."

Wang Guan nodded happily, and after taking the things, he did not hesitate, and directly aimed at the pinhole on the tail of the golden cicada. Then others saw a very surprising scene, only to see that the originally closed golden cicada wings were actually "alive" at this moment, a pair of light and thin cicada wings instantly stretched, a pair of forefeet cocked, a pair of hind feet slightly raised, as if ready to take off in the wind.

"What's going on?"

In an instant, Fang Mingsheng and Yuwei's eyes widened unconsciously, and they began to wonder if they were hallucinating, otherwise at the beginning, the cicada wings would have been unfolded, but they were just wrong?

However, after stretching the cicada wings, Wang Guan did not stop there, but continued to make a shocking move, but saw that after he wiped the golden cicada jade leaf with a tissue, he suddenly put the thing to his mouth and swallowed it gently.

"Ahh

At this time, the others were completely stunned, a little dazed and at a loss, not knowing what Wang Guan was doing. But the next second later, they suddenly heard a sound that seemed to be out of nowhere. The voice is choppy and whining, like a beginner who is playing a tune that is not melodious.

Listening carefully, Fang Mingsheng and the aftertaste immediately noticed that this subtle sound was actually emitted from the golden cicada jade leaves. Discovering this situation naturally surprised them again, full of disbelief.

"Wang Guan, what's going on."

After a long while, Fang Mingsheng gradually calmed down and couldn't wait to ask. If the golden cicada's cicada wings suddenly stretched out, this was due to the mechanism installed inside, then he would not be surprised but not surprised. But the fact that it could be a musical instrument was a big surprise to him.

"Can it really be blown?"

Compared with Fang Mingsheng's accident, the aftertaste was shocking. Even if he saw it with his own eyes and even heard the voice, he still couldn't believe it and expressed his doubts. After all, this kind of thing is a bit subverting his three views, and it is understandable that he will not accept it for a while.

Wang Guan smiled and said with great certainty: "This is not a golden branch and jade leaf, but a golden sound and jade vibration." ”

"What, Jin Shengyuzhen!"

Hearing this, the other two were shocked again, and suddenly they suddenly realized something.

Don't be surprised by the surprise of the two, mainly because of the word Jin Shengyuzhen, which is not well understood by ordinary people, but the origin of it has a great origin. This is Mencius's evaluation of Confucius, or his admiration for Confucius.

Mencius said that Confucius is the culmination. The one who collects the greatest, the golden sound and the jade Zhenzhi also. Jin Shengye. Beginning to be organized; Yu Zhenzhi is also the one who is finally organized. Those who begin to be rational are also wise; The one who is in order is also holy.

Jin Sheng and Yu Zhen are the whole process of playing music, starting with striking the bell (Jin Sheng) and ending with hitting the rock (Yu Zhen).

But Jin Sheng and Yu Zhen also have another extended meaning. Mencius used this to describe Confucius's thought as a collection of ancient sages and sages, and praised Confucius's great contribution to culture. Therefore, according to this allusion, later generations habitually named the first stone workshop in front of the Confucian Temple as Jinsheng Yuzhen, which can be regarded as a respect for Confucius.

Fang Mingsheng and Yuwei are also cultural people. I also have a lot of research on classical books, so I naturally know the meaning of Jin Shengyuzhen, and now under Wang Guan's reminder, I naturally suddenly realized and understood the ultimate meaning of this golden cicada jade leaf.

For a moment, the eyes of the two couldn't help but reveal a trace of jealousy.

If it's a simple golden branch and jade leaf, it doesn't matter, hundreds of thousands of things, they will only express envy, and they will definitely not be jealous. But after discovering that the golden branches and jade leaves have another mystery. He couldn't continue to be calm.

Antiques and antiques, in addition to their own value, are largely due to their added value. Aside from the factors of length of time and rarity. The cultural value of things is also one of the important benchmarks of price.

It's like something that celebrities have used, and these things are not uncommon, but after the halo effect of celebrities on the crown, both in terms of value and price. It's all set apart from the rest. Don't think it's absurd, everyone admires celebrities, and it's actually a kind of culture. Nature has its raison d'être.

The golden cicada jade leaf is a good example, to put it bluntly, it is just a jade leaf inlaid with a golden cicada. Generally speaking, the most to measure its value is to calculate the cost of jade and gold, plus the manual fee of the craftsman, and the final price can be obtained. However, due to the inheritance of gold and jade culture, the golden cicada and jade leaves represent a beautiful meaning, so the price must be appropriately increased.

However, no matter how the price increases, it is within the controllable range, and it is impossible to break through this limit.

But there are always exceptions to things, when it is discovered that the cicada wings of the golden cicada can be deployed, and even vocal music can be played, making the cicada wings flutter and resonate with the jade leaves. This in itself is a very rare and rare thing, and when it comes to the culture of Jin Shengyuzhen, the value of it is difficult to estimate.

Anyway, at this time, let alone 40,000 pounds, it is 400,000 pounds, Fang Mingsheng is also willing to pay this money, and he has no regrets, for fear that the slightest negligence will make the transaction go to ruin.

Of course, no matter how you say it, it has been a year of dealing, Fang Mingsheng also understands Wang Guan's temperament, and knows that such a good thing has fallen into his hands, and it must be like Pixiu eating, so now he only has to stare at envy and jealousy, and the idea of spending money to buy it came out and was snuffed out by himself.

Fang Mingsheng has hit a lot of walls, so he has learned to be obedient. But other people don't know, for example, at this time, suddenly a person came over and greeted him in English with a smile?

It should be a greeting, anyway, Wang Guan couldn't understand it, and sighed again in his heart, this is why he is reluctant to go abroad. It's not my home field, and there is a barrier to language communication, so it's naturally very unhappy.

Fortunately, this kind of thing naturally has an aftertaste, and I saw him talking and laughing with the man, judging from the eyes of the two of them, as well as the gesture of fingers, it seems that they are talking about the golden cicada and jade leaves.

Just when Wang Guan was confused, Yu Wei also turned his head and explained: "Wang Guan, he is the agent of a small auction company, and he asks if you want to entrust things to their company for auction, he can help operate, and maybe he can sell them for a good price." ”

"Oh."

As expected, Wang Guan suddenly smiled, shook his head without hesitation, and said, "Help me reject him." ”

“OK！”

Yu Wei nodded and repeated what Wang Guan meant. The man shook his head with some regret, but he didn't dwell on it any longer, left a business card and politely left...... (To be continued......)
