Fuxian Lake Gushan Island was already a place of scenic spot as early as the Song Dynasty, reached its peak in the Ming Dynasty, there were eight halls, five pavilions, three pavilions, a hall, a nunnery, a tower, the majestic shape won the crown Nanzhou. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Dingguo entered Yunnan and ordered his subordinates to destroy the buildings on the island by Feng Shuangli, collect the gold and silver of the temple, and even the copper tower with a width of five zhang and a height of nine zhang was also torn down to cast copper coins.

This history Ao Tang has long known that although it was a catastrophe for the temples on the island, Li Dingguo lacked military pay in order to save the country and resist the Qing Dynasty, so he could only raise money in this way. Unfortunately, Li Dingguo was still defeated in the end, and Feng Shuangli surrendered on his knees.

History regardless of the history, just say that this gilded bronze Buddha statue, originally a temple on the island to worship, the host can not care about the rise and fall of the country, anyway, you can continue to be a monk, and you don't have to pay taxes, what Ming and Qing are just a snap of a finger, Buddha is eternal. You Li Dingguo want to demolish our Golden Buddha Bronze Pagoda for military salary, of course we have to resist for my Buddha, oh, you have a big army, we can't resist, the big Buddha statue, the big bronze tower we can't hide, the small Buddha statue must be hidden.

This gilded bronze Buddha statue is hidden, and engraved with words, recording the righteous act of the presiding over the defense of my Buddha, the butt decides the head, and the position of each other is different, presiding over the justice of the presiding officer. It was loaded in a box again, the rope was hoisted, and it was suspended in the lake, and as for why it fell into the lake completely, it's not clear, I think it's because of the chaos, right?

With this inscription and this story, this gilded bronze Buddha statue is not an ordinary antique, but a real cultural relic-for Ao Tang, the blue and white flowers that were taken out before are not cultural relics at all, but just bottles and jars, nothing more than a little older.

Li Wenbo said: "A cultural relic with a legendary story has a different value. And I look at this Buddha statue, it is indeed extremely exquisite, but the Buddha statue is not my specialty, and I have to find a few friends for further identification. In the same way, if you want it to circulate in an orderly manner, you can't just say that you got it by chance, so I'll leave this to me. It's the end of August, and if I can make it in time, I can put it in this year's autumn auction, and I want to find a way to contact a big auction. ”

A really good auction is usually in November and December in autumn, and May and June in spring. Of course, the time is occasionally brought forward.

Li Wenbo thought for a while and said: "This gilded bronze Buddha statue should be from the Ming Dynasty, and the gilded bronze Buddha statue auction of the Ming Dynasty has a 06-year, Sotheby's Hong Kong autumn auction, 120 million." Of course, I don't have a very accurate grasp of the Buddha statue market, so I can't give you an estimate for the time being. ”

Ao Tang smiled: "I'm tired of you anyway." Then he asked, "It doesn't matter if you auction off cultural relics, do you?" ”

Li Wenbo laughed: "There are many cultural relics in the auction market now, not to mention any Buddha statues, even the emperor's jade seal." ”

Ao Tang was already worried about the jade seal, and hurriedly asked: "Uncle Li, I am particularly interested in the seal, is there a seal auction recently?" ”

Li Wenbo sighed and said: "I heard that in November this year, the Baotai Autumn Auction will prepare a special auction of Qing Dynasty seals, if you are really interested, you can go to the capital to have a look." However, the seals are all high-priced lots, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. ”

Ao Tang smiled indifferently, if he had more money at that time, he would go to the auction, and if he had less money, he would have to be sorry for others, or use his extra two Nanzhao jade seals to secretly replace the auction items.

After lunch, Ao Tang and Yu Zhiwei said goodbye to Lao Li, since they have been to their two-person world, it is also simple, it is nothing more than to go to the market and the park, the key is to see who they go around together. In addition to fighting bravely when swimming, Yu Zhiwei is usually mostly quiet, and she already feels satisfied when she walks and talks with Ao Tang.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Ao Tang received a call from Li Wenbo, and the auction of the peony gourd bottle did not reach the ideal estimate of 18 million, but exceeded the initial estimate of 15 million, and fell under the hammer of 16.8 million. After deducting the auction house commission, tax payment, and related expenses, and then deducting Lao Li's commission and related expenses, Ao Tang's actual income was 13 million yuan.

"Well, this money comes easily, so you don't have to save it." Ao Tang glanced left and right, there was a large shopping mall next to it, and said to Yu Zhiwei, "Go and see what clothes and jewelry you like." ”

Yu Zhiwei hurriedly shook her hand: "I really don't need to, I can earn a lot of scholarships this time, which is enough for my living expenses and to buy clothes, jewelry or something, well, I already have it." ”

Yu Zhiwei pulled up the jade fish dragon pendant around her neck, which was a gadget from Ao Tang during the winter vacation. Ao Tang reached over, touched the warmth, and couldn't help but sniff it.

Yu Zhiwei was ashamed, quickly snatched it back, stuffed it into the collar, and said coquettishly: "Yuanyuan is right, Ao Tang, you are really a pervert." ”

Ao Tang laughed: "Yuanyuan told you this? But it smells really good, and it has a refreshing feeling. He took Zhiwei's hand and took it to his nose to sniff, although it was not as faint as the jade fish dragon, but it also smelled good.

Yu Zhiwei's eyes were full of tenderness and smiled lightly.

Ao Tang led her to continue walking, and couldn't help asking, "What else did Yuanyuan tell you?" ”

"Secret."

"Ah, keep it a secret from me?"

"It's just going to keep it a secret from you."

"But what she said is absolutely slanderous, if I were really a pervert, I would have eaten you a long time ago."

Yu Zhiwei looked at Ao Tang with a smile: "It's not that you don't want to eat, but you're afraid of Milu, right?" ”

Ao Tang said unashamedly: "Will I be afraid of her? How can it be? I am the head of the family, how can a man be afraid of a woman? ”

"You're afraid she'll be sad."

"Uh...... Alas. Ao Tang sighed, he had already made Mi Lu sad, and he was indeed afraid that Mi Lu would be even more sad, so he couldn't solve it for a while, so he could only say lazily, "It would be good if it were an ancient society." ”

Yu Zhiwei is angry and funny, three wives and four concubines in ancient society? How can you show that you want three wives and four concubines in front of a woman? chirped: "Can you talk to Mi Lu about this?" Forget it, this is your problem, I don't have a headache for you, let's go. ”

Yu Zhiwei took Ao Tang's hand and walked in front, letting go of her troubles in her heart, and letting it be.

Ao Tang caught up with him, shook his head and laughed, looked at the stores on the left and right, and asked, "Is there really nothing you want?" ”

"Not really. Well, it's okay to eat, you make so much money, I have to eat and drink, tonight [***] meal, I want to eat, well, eat Yan Bao Wing Ginseng! Yu Zhiwei nodded and confirmed, "Just eat Yan Bao Wing Ginseng, I've never eaten it before." He asked with some humility, "Are those things delicious?" I read some sayings on the Internet, shark fin doesn't seem to be nutritious, and bird's nest is what saliva and feathers, abalone ......"

"Stop, stop." Ao Tang hurriedly stopped and said with a smile, "Do you know why 'Gentleman is far away from cooking'?" ”

"Can't bear to kill?" Yu Zhiwei didn't go to college for nothing, so she wouldn't be asked easily.

"This is the right solution, but it is not enough."

"The gentleman is too lazy to cook; Or too stupid to know how to cook. ”

"Uh......" Ao Tang was embarrassed and nodded hurriedly, "This can be available." ”

"What else?"

Ao Tang said with a smile: "Food looks appetizing, but this is a finished product, if you look at the process from raw materials to finished products, you will find that the color and flavor of food are far from the same, which will destroy the good impression of some 'gentlemen' on food, some raw materials are dirty and bloody, some are to be fermented, some are to be corrupted, and some even rely on insects to generate." If you want to enjoy food, you just have to look at it, regardless of the origin, regardless of nutrition, and don't imagine it. In fact, cooking and eating vegetables is simple, and it will hurt if you think too much. ”

Yu Zhiwei covered her mouth and smiled, wanting to say that she had no eggs to hurt, but she felt vulgar again, looked ahead, and pointed in surprise: "It turns out that we came here, that Shencheng Mansion is the top restaurant in Shencheng, so let's go there, let's have a good [***] meal." ”

Ao Tang naturally won't refuse, speaking of which, he has never eaten Yan Bao Wing Ginseng, just to taste it.

Shencheng Mansion is indeed a high-end restaurant, all the way in, the decoration is very distinctive, and there are all kinds of classical clocks and watches displayed in the corridor, as if walking into a special museum. There are many seals engraved on the surrounding walls, which is magnificent, but unfortunately it is not true, otherwise Ao Tang will come to be a thief tonight. The two entered a private room under the guidance of the welcome lady, it was late at this time, the candlestick was lit, and the surrounding classical vases and ancient bronze mirrors reflected the candlelight, adding a bit of romance.

Ao Tang looked at the menu, first choose Yan abalone wing ginseng, since today I came to [***], I directly ordered the most expensive Oyster Emperor Buckle 16 heads called Benji Pin Abalone, 1480 yuan a.

Two for two, one for each person? No, it's like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, one doesn't taste it, and if there is one more, it will be called four. I also ordered braised sea tiger wings, colorful blood bird's nest, elephant pull, lobster steak, sturgeon roe with crab meat, plus meat, cold dishes, seasonal vegetables, and snacks.

Yu Zhiwei couldn't help but stick out her tongue, Ao Tang also felt a little exaggerated, and secretly sighed that he could be regarded as a "nouveau riche", but he was not a thrifty surname, he didn't have to worry about money coming and going, and he should be happy in life.

The dishes don't live up to their high prices, and they are indeed quite good, but when Ao Tang was eating and drinking, his mind couldn't help but turn to other aspects, and he looked at this oyster emperor buckle sixteen heads and said that Benji Pin Abalone, such a small one, it can be sold for 1,005! Of course, this is the terminal price of the hotel, but the price of the first entry into the market is not low, and the name is set with a "book", Ao Tang felt that he was earned, picked up the tablet and checked, and the book was even known as the abalone kingdom.

"What does Ao Tang think?"

"Uh, Zhiwei, you know that I am an aquatic farmer, and I am thinking about raising abalone in the future."

"But you're an inland reservoir, and abalone is seafood?"

"It's okay, wait for more auctions, go to the beach and buy an island to be an island owner, not only can you raise abalone, but also enjoy the life of paradise."
