Chapter Forty-Eight: Inside

The happiest person has to be the middle-aged woman, and now the wooden monkey has a legitimate identity, and his worth has risen by at least two million. Although she is not ready to sell, people who play antiques have the same mentality, the more upscale their treasures, the more face-saving, and the happier they are.

There are a lot of treasures participating in the conference, so one round of exhibitions can't be too long. The first round lasted about twenty minutes, and then the second round began. The next two or three rounds were nothing to look at, and the curios were very average. But no one was in a state of interest, let alone in a hurry.

They all know that there is an unwritten tradition at the conference: the best is to come! Generally, people who feel that their baby is good will choose to go back. This will attract more attention, especially the main event, which is definitely put last.

"Huh! It's pretty much the same every year, and there's a bright spot in the first round. Then there is silence for two or three rounds, and there will be surprises again, so that everyone will not feel visual fatigue. Ye Jianzhong explained on the side.

"Yes! Sometimes there will even be one or two dark horses, which may weigh down the heavy weapons behind them and make them unable to lift their heads. Uncle Gu said with a smile. He attends the treasure appreciation conference every year and has a deep understanding of the previous conferences.

"Oh? Then let's see how the next round goes. Hong Tianbao was not even more impatient, he was happy in his heart! This guy has been plundering treasures since the beginning, but no one knows, how can he not be happy when he does bad things openly?

The third round ended quickly, and the next round of fifty antiques was immediately replaced.

As soon as Hong Tianbao and the others saw it, Ye Jianzhong was a little disappointed. These fifty antiques are the same as the previous two rounds, they don't give people a refreshing feeling, and they still haven't entered his eyes.

"Forget it, let's go to the rest area and sit for a while! This round isn't good either. Ye Jianzhong said with some disappointment.

The rest area is on both sides of the main hall, where there are many stools, water dispensers, etc. Many of the people who participated in the treasure appreciation meeting were elderly seniors, and it was impossible to stand for too long. So with that in mind, the staff opened a lounge area in previous years. This change in the surname of the person has made many people very satisfied.

Hong Tianbao looked along, and there were already a lot of people sitting there, most of them were old people in their seventies and eighties.

"If you're tired, go over! I'd like to see again, after all, such an opportunity is only once a year. Hong Tianbao said half-truthfully, looking at the baby is one, but Hong Tianbao cares more about the treasure of others. Obeying the principle of not wasting if you can eat, how can Hong Tianbao let it go? Although there are not many treasures, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat.

Uncle Gu nodded with satisfaction, this is also where Uncle Gu admires Hong Tianbao, and he will not miss any opportunity to improve himself.

When Ye Jianzhong heard Hong Tianbao say this, he was embarrassed to go alone. followed Hong Tianbao and continued to watch.

Hong Tianbao looked at the antiques very quickly, and Uncle Gu and Ye Jianzhong in the back were a little surprised. I thought to myself, can he see a name for himself when he looks at it like this?

"Hmmm! Tianbao, tell me about this copper tower. Uncle Gu couldn't help but test Hong Tianbao to see if he had paid attention to these antiques just now. If Hong Tianbao just looked at the flowers, he would have to talk about him after a little look.

Hong Tianbao turned his head and glanced at Uncle Gu suspiciously.

"Did you kid really appreciate it?" Ye Jianzhong also asked, he asked more directly, anyway, the two of them are very familiar, there is no need to be so subtle.

When Hong Tianbao heard this, he immediately understood. The teacher must have thought that he was not attentive, so he was not at ease, so he was tested. Hong Tianbao smiled slightly, this could not bother him.

He glanced down at the bronze tower, which he had just seen. It is a small three-story tower, the size of a palm, twenty centimeters high. Each floor has four eaves corners, and each corner is hung with a small bell that rings whenever the wind blows slightly. There is a copper bead at the top of the tower, the thumb is big, and the copper is shining.

"This copper pagoda is an object of the Tang Dynasty, and it should have flowed out of the temple or Taoist temple at that time. As for the specific details, I can't guess. Hong Tianbao raised his head and said.

Uncle Gu smiled and said, "Hmm! It's good to do that. "Actually, Uncle Gu himself has seen this, so he has nothing to add.

The three of them looked down again, this time, they didn't pay attention to Hong Tianbao's strange behavior, anyway, this kid is a freak.

Hong Tianbao suddenly stopped and looked at a clay pottery. It was a clay Buddha, unremarkable.

Ye Jianzhong and Uncle Gu were stunned for a moment, and they both looked at the clay pottery. Then I don't understand, this clay pottery can be said to be the most antique of this conference, although the age is very long, it is an object of the Sui Dynasty. But the workmanship is rough, and it sells for one or two hundred thousand at most outside.

They did not understand how the owner of the clay had dared to bring it to the convention. Isn't it a shame? It's no wonder that these more than 50 booths are the emptiest here.

"Brother, this clay pottery is very ordinary!" Ye Jianzhong said incomprehensibly, this kid usually has a high vision, why is he optimistic about a clay pottery today? Is there anything strange about this clay pottery? Ye Jianzhong took a closer look again and found nothing special.

Uncle Gu also looked at it carefully and found that the mud used in this clay pottery was not ordinary, it was a kind of thin mud, and now there is no more. Even in the Sui Dynasty at that time, there were not many such muds. What is strange is that someone actually used it to burn such a smiling Buddha. And it's done so casually and roughly, isn't it a waste of material?

"This mud is not simple!" Uncle Gu glanced at Ye Jianzhong, his vision and knowledge were higher than Ye Jianzhong's.

"Mud? What's the name? Ye Jianzhong turned his eyes to look at Uncle Gu.

"This mud is more precious, it is a thin mud, and it is very suitable for firing. It was produced in Xi'an, and there was no more after the Tang Dynasty. It's just, how could someone be so stupid and get such a mud Buddha out. Uncle Gu said with some pity.

"Huh! What about the owner of this mud Buddha? Why not there? Hong Tianbao looked up at this time, but did not find the master, and asked strangely.

"What? Are you interested in clay Buddha? Although the material is rare, it is too ordinary. Ye Jianzhong still shook his head.

Hong Tianbao smiled and didn't explain, this clay pottery was not what they thought it was at all.

Hong Tianbao looked around, trying to find the owner of the clay pottery. At this time, a young man younger than Hong Tianbao walked over. As soon as he came up, he greeted Ye Jianzhong and said, "Brother Ye! It's you! Obviously, he also recognized Hong Tianbao, this buddy was the one who was against Tang Xin just now.

"Huh! Xiao Ding is also here? Ye Jianzhong was stunned for a moment, and then relieved. This person is Ding Lao's grandson, and he has a good talent. Although the Ding family is full of descendants, among a large group of descendants, Ding Yijin is interested in antiques. So Ding Lao had no choice but to do his best to cultivate this kid.

Uncle Gu saw Hong Tianbao's puzzled face, and then explained: "He is Ding Yijin, the grandson of Director Ding!" You can have more contacts in the future. ”

Only then did Hong Tianbao know the origin of this person, and he was just about to open his mouth to make friends, but the other party had already spoken.

"Hello Brother Hong! Grandpa often mentions you! I didn't expect you to be so powerful, even Sister Tang is not an opponent. Ding Yijin is a young man with a broken hair, wearing a formal suit, and is very energetic. But he has a shy appearance, and he has not faded away from the childishness.

"Huh! Am I her opponent? That little pepper is amazing! She will definitely hate me to death now, and when she has the opportunity in the future, she will definitely fight back fiercely. Hong Tianbao smiled.

"And you're still messing with her?" Uncle Gu gave Hong Tianbao a rare look, which was the most dissatisfied with him, and it was also the place where Hong Tianbao did not let him worry about it the most.

"Oops! Teacher, didn't you wronged me? It wasn't her who found fault first, I was just defending myself, can I be blamed for this? Even if I became dumb, she probably wouldn't give up, would she? Hong Tianbao screamed bitterly, thinking in his heart: Do you think I really have nothing to do! It was completely out of necessity.

Everyone heard Hong Tianbao's bitter complaint, although what Hong Tianbao said was true, they still did not agree with Hong Tianbao's statement. Hong Tianbao's approach is completely that he knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to go to the tiger mountains, and he is not worthy of sympathy if he is bitten by a tiger.

Ding Yijin smiled, then let go of the position and took out the clay pottery Buddha.

Ye Jianzhong and Uncle Gu immediately widened their eyes and asked in unison, "This won't be yours, right?" ”

Ding Yijin nodded awkwardly, he was miserable enough to say. It's rare to be like him in the antique world. He had no other treasures but this clay pottery. It's not that he can't afford it, he used to dig out some antiques, isn't that one better than this one? But the good treasures were all taken by the grandfather to confiscate, and this clay pottery was mediocre, so he escaped the catastrophe.

"You know my grandfather's last name." Ding Yijin's face was slightly red.

Uncle Gu and Ye Jianzhong immediately smiled bitterly, and they also knew what Curator Ding was. As a Chinese antique Mount Tai, but there is no treasure hidden at home, who doesn't know? This is clear not only at home, but also abroad.

"I picked up this clay pottery in Xicheng District, and I saw that this thing was something from the Sui Dynasty at that time, but unfortunately it was too ordinary." Ding Yijin handed the clay pottery to Hong Tianbao.

Hong Tianbao took it and carefully looked at the clay pottery. He was secretly shocked in his heart, this weight was really the same as ordinary clay pottery. But he knew that the clay pottery was just wrapped in a layer of mud, and there was a Qiankun inside, which was a jade Buddha. He didn't expect that the weight of the jade would be almost the same as the mud, this kind of jade is really rare.

Originally, Hong Tianbao wanted to pick up a leak and buy this thing. But now he hesitated, Ding Yijin's identity made him unable to let go.

"Yijin, how much did you get this mud Buddha?" Hong Tianbao still asked clearly before making a decision.

"One hundred!" Ding Yijin stretched out a finger, his face a little proud. Although this clay pottery is not good, he has really picked up a leak, and it is not small.

"Hmmm! You're making a lot of money! Ye Jianzhong said with a smile.
