Zhou Furong's pastel came to an end, and another young man couldn't wait to move out, holding a river mussel in his hand. Right! It's just a mussel.

"Seniors, this is an object that the juniors have recently received, please take a look." After saying that, he put the mussels on the table. Everyone also knows that this is definitely not a real mussel, it looks like it should be a wood carving, but the carving is a must, it looks like the real thing, and it seems to be able to confuse the real thing.

"Let's put aside the texture and age, the carving of this object alone is a pinnacle work, not bad!" Hong Lao did not hesitate to praise his words, which made the young man very happy.

He bought it from a child, and when he saw it, he liked it. I don't know how the kid got it, but he played with it as a toy at the time, so he went to a nearby toy store and bought a remote-controlled car, and the two swapped.

After he returned, he himself saw that the wood was a common camphor wood. This kind of timber is produced in the southern region of China, especially in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hunan and Sichuan. Aromatic and yellowish to grayish-brown, reddish-brown. The material is rough and durable. The textures are intertwined and the luster is pretty. Since ancient times, as the superior material of the wood carving industry, it has been mostly used in antique wood carving and furniture wood carving, which is not easy to be eaten by insects.

The age doesn't seem to be very old, and in his eyes, he probably guessed that it seemed to be an object from the Republic of China. However, although the wood is not special and it is not very old, this carving is rare. Therefore, no matter how you say it, you still make money, and if you meet a Taoist friend, you may be able to make a lot of money.

The Chu family looked at it and found it. The texture of the mussel shell above is just the stripe pattern of the wood, and the carving is carved along the wood grain, which is very unique.

The old men looked at it for a while, and then came to a conclusion: "The wood is camphor wood, which is not precious and has a short history. In the early days of the Republic of China, it has a history of more than 100 years! What is commendable is the carving, the master's work. Unfortunately, I can't tell which master is the work. ”

Hong Lao sighed: "It's not surprising that you can't guess, we have Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in China, and we have always been masters in the people." How many masters are unknown? I'm afraid no one knows this, right? I really want to see the real masters of fame and fortune! ”

When Hong Lao said this, Zhou Furong remembered a carpenter in Chujiazhai, who was called a wooden man by Chu Jiaqiang and others. The man's carving is also terrifying, almost mastery. At that time, he begged the old man to carve several pieces for him, but he didn't bring them back, and he was still in Chu Jiaqiang's house.

Old Man Zhou handed the mussel back to the young man and said with a smile: "Young man, this is a good thing. Are you going to collect this treasure yourself, or will it change hands? ”

"If the price is right. Of course it changes hands. "Although the carving is a must, the river mussel carvings are not loved by many people, and they belong to very remote things.

On a whim, Chu Jiaqiang swept through the antiques present with his divine sense. The result was disappointing to him, and it didn't seem like omnipotence was the senses. He can see what's going on inside through his sense. However, due to the lack of relevant knowledge, it is still impossible to judge the quality of the object.

However, when the divine consciousness swept over the mussel, my heart jumped. He found that the middle of the mussel was actually empty, and there was a black bead inside, the size of a ping-pong ball. And the wooden shell on the outside doesn't seem to be simple. It's like a mechanism that can be opened.

When he heard that the young man was going to change hands, he was a little impulsive to buy it. He can be sure that the black beads inside are very precious black pearls, which are recorded in the medical books of the old Taoist priest and can be used as a medicine guide.

The mother-of-pearl that produces black pearl is a black lipped oyster that secretes black nacre. The beauty of black pearls lies in the fact that they have a variety of colors on their natural black tone, the most appreciated are peacock green, purple, sea blue and other rainbow colors, and its strong metallic luster will change with the rotation of the pearl, which is not comparable to other color change pearls.

The black pearl is the most elegant spirit in the sea, printed with the color of the deep sea, it seems to have waves and undercurrents, but it is impossible to see through the reserved and steady appearance.

Legend has it that when a drop of dew falls into the sea, if it happens to be caught by an open seashell, it can form a crystalline pearl. If the weather is bad, the dew under the gray sky falls into the seabed, forming a black pearl. This legend has been passed down since the 15th century, and it makes people think that black pearls are tears when the sky is sad, so the color is deep and solemn, unlike the lightness and brightness of ordinary white pearls.

In ancient China, black pearls represented wisdom. It is guarded between the dragon's teeth and has an alluring sheen. But whoever wants to get it must conquer the dragon first. The dragon's sheer size and divine power are terrifying, so whoever can conquer the dragon must have extraordinary wisdom in order to be worthy of the Black Pearl.

At this time, someone had already bid 50,000 yuan, but the young man didn't seem to be very satisfied. If it weren't for the high level of carving, a piece of such a wooden ordinary, not long-aged, ornamental object would be about one or two thousand. It can be seen that the value of carvers, ordinary materials, through their hands, will also become hot treasures.

"This brother, I will pay 60,000 yuan, will I sell it?" Chu Jiaqiang also spoke.

Chu Jiaqiang spoke. Zhou Furong and others were surprised. In their cognition, Chu Jiaqiang was not very interested in these playthings, why did he suddenly pay for them? Zhou Furong knows that he still has a bunch of carved products at home, some crystal and some wood, all of which are the works of the wood man, and they will not be worse than the one in front of him. But this guy didn't pay attention to it at all, and threw it in the corner of the house to get moldy.

The young man did not respond immediately, but looked at the others, and found that most of them were not very interested, mainly because this ornament was too out of the way, and if it was carved into mainstream objects, such as lions, unicorns, dragons, etc., it would be much more precious.

"Good! Brother, we can trade. After looking around, the young man smiled and traded with Chu Jiaqiang to the side. Chu Jiaqiang asked for an account number, and then called Ye Caiping and asked him to transfer money to that person online.

Back on the scene again, the next one has already been communicated. Chu Jiaqiang didn't care either, he wasn't interested in the things in the back.

"Boss, why bother? Do you have no shortage of these wood carvings at home? Besides, if you are not satisfied, you can let the wood man carve another one. Zhou Furong whispered. Just now, he tried his best to give the Chu family a strong look, but this guy was completely transparent, and it was a wasted expression.

"It's a treasure." Chu Jiaqiang didn't explain much.

Zhou Furong was speechless suddenly, and his heart was empty: You kid knows a fart baby? I don't understand, and I don't ask for my opinion.
