When Feng Junshan heard Zhou Ming's words, he laughed and said in a low voice: "What are you afraid of, if there is really a problem, brother, you would have reminded me a long time ago." ”

Zhou Zhou Ming smiled helplessly and didn't know whether to be proud or distressed, Feng Junshan actually trusted him so much, which really made him feel a little flattered, but he still persuaded: "This pure bronze mustache is more valuable, the quality is very good, and the pattern is also very clear, but it is still a bit of a loss to buy it for six million. ”

The shape of the bronze mustache is relatively cold, in addition to professionals, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the difference between the beard and the tripod, and the market recognition of the bronze in this shape is not high, so the market price is cheaper than the tripod of the same grade, and it is indeed a bit of a loss to buy such a bronze beast face pattern mustache for six million.

But Feng Junshan still didn't care, "As long as it's a good thing, anyway, I like it, haha, besides, it's also a prestige, let them know that I don't care about money, so that they will think about it next time they fight with me." ”

Zhou Ming thought about it for a while, and then secretly smiled bitterly, Feng Junshan is an old river and lake, and it is really not his turn to worry. Thinking of this, I settled down and patiently watched the auction go on slowly.

However, looking at the bronze heavy weapons appearing here, even Zhou Ming was a little frightened, so many bronzes that had obviously not been unearthed for a long time appeared here, what does it mean? Speaking of which, the organizer of this auction has a complete and huge collection channel, and I don't know how many tomb robbers can get so many bronzes.

You must know that bronze ware was the most popular during the period from the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the Warring States period, and those who could be buried with bronzes were the princes and nobles of those eras, that is to say, the appearance of these bronzes meant that countless princely cemeteries from the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the Warring States period were stolen and excavated.

But these things have nothing to do with him, he can't control them, and he doesn't want to provoke these outlaws, so he just watches quietly, looking for suitable objects to appear.

It didn't take long for the appearance of a bronze horse to attract Zhou Ming's attention.

This bronze horse is not big, the length is less than twenty-five centimeters, and the height is only twenty centimeters, it is also a typical unearthed, the red spot green embroidery on the body is very obvious, it is indeed a good thing, the unearthed features are too obvious, it is an object with a wide open door, and there is almost no need to identify, because this kind of feature is old and can not be done, and only these characteristics will appear when buried in the semi-wet pit all year round.

And the shape of this horse is very special, the overall look is like a horse that is sprinting at high speed suddenly came to a sharp brake, kicking forward, pulling the horse's head back, the overall center of gravity has moved forward significantly, and it looks very dynamic. Although the craftsmanship is slightly rough compared to the modern craftsmanship, and the details are not delicate enough, the overall creativity has a strong Shang and Zhou style.

Zhou Ming doesn't know where this horse was dug up, but it is indeed a fine product, but I am afraid it is not suitable for collection, because this is a standard Ming vessel, and it is used for burial when it is cast, and there is no special hobby, and ordinary people really don't collect this thing. Of course, some people don't care about this, as long as the thing is good.

Sure enough, no one hesitated at all about the starting price of 200,000 yuan, and the first bid mentioned 500,000 yuan, and there were still many bidders, and seven or eight people kept increasing the price.

However, this thing also has its own value, the market price is not too high, about one million, so those people are also quite restrained when they increase the price, they are all 550,000 plus, and no one adds it after adding it to 800,000.

Seeing this, Zhou Ming shouted "one million" expressionlessly, as soon as this offer came out, everyone looked sideways, but no one raised the price again, especially thinking that Zhou Zhou Ming came with Feng Junshan, he had some scruples in his heart, worried that the fight would be endless, and the price of one million was already very high in the black market auction.

The auctioneer was a middle-aged man with a white face, and seeing that no one was bidding anymore, he smiled slightly and said to Zhou Ming: "Congratulations to this little brother for winning this rare bronze horse, please come to the stage to hand it over." ”

Because it is a black market auction, it is generally to buy one piece and take one piece, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and deliver it clearly on the spot. Of course, the payment must be a credit card, the money laundering system is quite developed in recent years, they swiped a sum of money here, and after a few minutes, the money has been transferred to no account of how many accounts.

When the bronze horse arrived, Zhou Zhou Ming looked at it carefully, and secretly praised it in his heart, it is indeed a good thing, but unfortunately this thing has no origin, and it must not be directly auctioned, either digested in a private transaction, or it can only be changed to make an identity and then let it be auctioned.

Of course, there are also some dealers of cultural relics who smuggle these excavations abroad, and then auction them at foreign auction houses, so that after an auction, the object has a legal identity, and after buying it back in China, there is no problem with whether it is a personal collection or a second auction.

Of course, Zhou Zhou Ming will definitely not send this thing abroad, although he is not a patriotic youth, but he still does not want this kind of thing to be equivalent to secondary plunder, and let foreign auction houses earn high commissions in vain. What's more, these objects are scattered abroad, and who knows if they can come back?

After a bronze horse, Zhou Zhou Ming took several bronzes in a row, and this bronze horse is the style of a period, all of which are the style of the transition period of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and of course they are all unearthed in the semi-wet pit, making these treasures look as if they were dug out of the same pit.

Including the bronze horse, there were four pieces in total, and nearly two million were spent, all of which were paid by Feng Junshan. However, these were only side dishes, and the main course had not yet been settled, until the end of the auction, and finally one that met the requirements appeared in front of him.

This is a beast face pattern, the height is more than 40 centimeters, this size of bronze can appear on the market, it is definitely a large piece, if it is genuine, it is for this size, the market price is more than 10 million.

It's a pity that this thing looks beautiful, but it's just an old imitation. In this private auction, there are not many fakes, and in the afternoon Zhou Ming found three fakes, and the rest are genuine, this is the fourth.

However, such a mixture of truth and falsehood for auction is indeed very confusing, and the previous three fakes did not arouse anyone's suspicion at all, and they were all auctioned off at a price of more than one million. You must know that most of these people have Mr. Palm-eyed, and it is not uncommon for a Mr. Palm-Eyed to look away, and all Mr. Palm-Eye does not doubt it, so it can only be said that the organizer has done a covert and fake-like imitation method is too clever.

In fact, this fake imitation is very exquisite, it can really be fake, if there is no jade pen, Zhou Ming himself is not sure that he can identify the authenticity of this bronze statue.

But this is exactly what he wants, Zhou Ming glanced at Feng Junshan, and then stepped forward to take a serious look.

This bronze statue is divided into three parts as a whole, the mouth is very high, the whole is cylindrical, and the neck is slender and adducted; below the neck is the shoulder, the shoulder is slightly folded outward, the abdomen is divided into four sides by four ribs, and the abdomen is slightly introverted downward; Under the abdomen is the hoop foot, the hoop foot is very high, about 12 centimeters, accounting for a little one-third of the overall height, the high hoop foot is slightly outward, the bottom diameter is about 15 centimeters.

The shape of this bronze statue is very ancient, but the proportions are quite accurate, the golden ratio that is in line with human aesthetics, the curved surface and the hard and direct edges are connected together, so that this bronze statue looks rigid and soft, and the curve and straight line are combined very harmoniously.

The same is true of the pattern, the whole body is decorated with a circle of cicada patterns on the lower edge of the mouth, the neck is a geometric dragon pattern, and the most important four sides of the abdomen are decorated with three rolls of sheep's head in the form of high relief, which is cleverly combined with the ribs of the abdomen. From the abdomen to the circled feet, there are large and delicate decomposed animal face patterns.

These ornaments are very exquisite, complex and fine, with very strong Shang and Zhou characteristics.

If it weren't for Zhou Zhou Ming who had already known the answer, it is estimated that he would really treat this bronze statue as real, because the imitation is so exquisite, almost to the point of lifelikeness, and even the charm of the Shang and Zhou dynasties has been cast, I have to say that there are indeed masters in the people.

Not only is the casting exquisite, but even the green embroidery and red spots on the surface of the bronze statue are imitated very realistically, and Zhou Zhou Ming searched the information in his mind and couldn't figure out how these green embroidery and red spots were imitated.

Although he was a little depressed, this thing was exactly what he needed, so he nodded to Feng Junshan again, signaling that he could bid, although the transaction price of this thing must be very high, but it is nothing to Feng Junshan, not to mention that after the money is spent, he will get it back a lot.

So when bidding, Feng Junshan was not ambiguous at all, he really didn't treat money as money, others were 50,000 plus, but he was 1 million plus 1 million, anyway, the transaction price of this thing must be more than 10 million.

Sure enough, in less than two minutes, the price of this bronze beast-faced sheep head rose to more than 10 million. However, after 10 million, the speed of everyone's bidding slowed down, and a few of them died down, after all, not everyone can be like Feng Junshan who does not make money, in the Jiaodong Peninsula, among the businessmen who play antiques, Feng Junshan is really not afraid of anyone in terms of financial resources.

When the price was mentioned as 13 million, Feng Junshan suddenly slapped the table and directly added 5 million, "Eighteen million, who follows?" At the same time, he raised his neck high, with the posture of the boss and his second, as if he wanted to directly scare all the bidders away.
