Chapter 181: Agarwood Jewelry Box
On the stall in front of them, there are mainly some jewelry boxes and other objects, various styles, various materials, a lot of them, and they are filled with a few square pieces of cloth.
Yang Ruolan is interested in the objects used by these women, which is why they stay here.
"Can I take a look?" Yang Ruolan pointed to a wooden jewelry box and said to the stall owner.
Wooden or metal objects are not like porcelain, jade, paper and other things, easy to break, and all the objects on this stall, there are no fragile products, although the stall owner can see at a glance that they are not people in the industry, but look at their clothing, they are not afraid of being damaged by them, they can't afford to compensate, very cheerful nodded: "What you like, take it yourself." ”
Yang Ruolan saw that the stall owner agreed, so she reached out and took the jewelry box in her hand and looked at it carefully. Although Xu Ziling didn't know if it was an antique or not, he was quite interested, so he leaned over and looked at it with Yang Ruolan.
The jewelry box is about 20 centimeters long, 15 centimeters high, and 10 centimeters wide, the box is red, and there are a few flowers that vaguely look like peonies.
The front is a small door, open the small door, there are three small drawers inside, and the top of the box is a small handle, the overall look, the shape is simple. Although the paint on the surface of the box is a little damaged, the whole box still looks good.
Of course, this conclusion is based on the premise that the object is genuine, not a modern imitation.
"Lion, look, is this thing an antique or a modern thing?" It was impossible to rely on Xu Ziling to identify, so he asked the lion directly.
"Ordinary wood, probably from last year." The lion was quick to give an answer.
Sure enough, there were several stalls in front of him, and Xu Ziling asked the lion to scan the entire stall at once, and several stalls added up to hundreds of things, except for a few copper coins, and there was no one that was a little older.
And the jewelry box in Yang Ruolan's hand, Xu Ziling didn't have any idea that it would be something of age, and now after listening to the lion's conclusion, he didn't have any disappointment.
"Ziling, what do you think of this? Like isn't it a good thing? The more Yang Ruolan looked at it, the more she liked it, and whispered in Xu Ziling's ear.
Yang Ruolan's words, although she was quiet, but looking at her happy appearance, she almost didn't write the word "like" on her face, and the stall owner had been paying attention to the two of them, seeing Yang Ruolan's appearance, she was also happy in her heart, thinking that as long as she asked the price, she must offer a "suitable" price.
With Xu Ziling here, why can't he notice the stall owner? Although the excited expression on her face passed away, she couldn't hide Xu Ziling's eyes.
"Fake! As you know, I specialize in materials, and I look at this thing as a fake. The lacquer on this is new, but I don't know what method Lu Dao used to make it look like this old thing. Turning his back on the stall owner's eyes, Xu Ziling said softly in Yang Ruolan's ear.
"Ah, fake. But it's pretty stuff. Yang Ruolan heard that this thing was not an antique, and the smile on her pretty face disappeared immediately, but she said with a little regret.
"If you like it, buy it back, as long as you like it."
"I'd better take a look." Yang Ruolan put down her things and looked at other things.
The stall owner watched Yang Ruolan say a few words to Xu Ziling, and then put the things down, thinking that Xu Ziling should have discovered the problem with this box, she didn't think of how she could see the problem when she didn't look like an insider.
"Lion, scan the rest of the stall as well." Although there is little chance of encountering something of the age, there is always a chance to scan it, and if you don't scan, there is no chance at all.
The lion is also becoming more and more humane, after learning about the "leakage", he became as interested as Yang Ruolan, and when he heard Xu Ziling ask him to scan, he immediately began to respond, "Okay." ”
"Huh...... It's a strange thing," the lion soon said in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"Look, what is this?" The lion transmitted the image of a jewelry box on the stall to Xu Ziling's mind.
The box is about the same size as the jewelry box that Yang Ruolan got before, but it is only two centimeters shorter, and the shape is similar, but the color of the box is different from that one, but dark red, and the surface is also carved with dragons and phoenixes, which looks much more luxurious than the previous one.
"What's wrong?" Xu Ziling couldn't see anything wrong at all.
"You can't see it from the outside." The lion scanned the box as a whole, and the image in his mind became translucent, "Look at it again." ”
"Huh? What is it? There's another layer on top of this box? "Judging from the image, you can see that the surface of the box is wrapped in a layer of things, about five millimeters, and there is a clear difference between the two layers.
"Judging from the age, there are hundreds of years in this layer, but I don't know the things inside, I'll check it on the Internet, you wait." The lion is not a jack of all trades, he does not know everything, and when he encounters something he does not know, he can only look it up on the Internet.
Yang Ruolan still squatted in front of the stall with great interest and looked at those objects, and also gave Xu Ziling time to let him communicate with the lion.
"Got it." Soon the lion said excitedly, "Pick up, pick up, we really missed this time." ”
"......" Xu Ziling really didn't expect the lion to be so fanatical about this, but when he heard his excited tone, he also became interested, "What is this?" Hurry up and talk about it. ”
"This thing is agarwood, but it's wrapped in a special resin on the outside, which makes people look like sandalwood, and if it weren't for me, if no one had opened the thing, I guess no one would have found it."
"And this is the most expensive Qi Nan in agarwood, this is a good thing with no price."
"You're not mistaken? Is this thing still a priceless thing? Aren't we really picking it up? "Although Xu Ziling doesn't know Lu Dao Qi Nan, he also knows Lu Dao agarwood.
Agarwood is a kind of wood, but it is also a kind of traditional Chinese medicine and spices, in ancient times, dignitaries and nobles to emperors like to use precious agarwood to make jewelry, wear it on the body, or use it to carve into ornaments to show their status.
