In addition to the intact preservation of the gold on the ritual weapon, it can also be seen from the material of the ritual artifact.

Tiantie originally meant "iron from the sky", that is, meteoric iron. It is in Tibet. The district has a sacred meaning, the iron color is deep and mysterious, therefore, the hidden. Meteorites, iron-bearing meteorites and artificial iron smelting are often referred to as celestial iron, which is distinguished from copper. In Esoteric Buddhism, it is believed that the mana of heavenly iron is powerful, and generally the best magic weapons are made of heavenly iron.

In addition, the length of this ritual vessel is nearly fifty centimeters, and such a length of ritual vessel is also very rare. Coupled with the superb craftsmanship of the magic weapon, it can be seen that this magic instrument is still very rare. As for the market price, Chu Chen felt that the highest should be around 50,000.

Seeing Chu Chen put the magic weapon back into the box, Dasha smiled and asked, "Boss Chu, do you think you are still satisfied?" ”

Chu Chen nodded and said, "Boss Duan, please ask for a price." ”

"That's the number!" Dasha stretched out his right hand and gestured.

Chu Chen was a little speechless when he saw the price given by Dasha, but he had heard the shopkeeper Peng say that the price Dasha offered him at that time was 50,000, and it was not until 30,000 Dasha did not agree, so he didn't ask for it. Now that it's himself, Dasha actually asked for 60,000 yuan, which is completely wronged him, if he didn't have something to ask him today, he would definitely just brush his sleeves and leave.

Chu Chen directly shook his head and said, "Boss Duan, your price is really insincere, this business is a little difficult to do." ”

Dasha smiled and said, "Boss Chu, then you give a price, and I'll see if it's suitable." ”

Chu Chen said: "Boss Duan, what is the price of things, presumably you should also know." I think 40,000 is about the same, if it's higher. There's nothing I can do about it. ”

Dasha pondered for a moment, and was quite satisfied with the price offered by Chu Chen. Of course, if according to his original intention, he still wanted to make a little more money from Chu Chen, but his things were worth this point, and in the end, he could only agree to this price with a little regret.

Directly clearing the money and goods, Chu Chen said with a smile: "Boss Duan, you just said that this magic weapon and the box from last time were all received from the same person?" ”

Dasha is happily collecting the money. Hearing this, he was a little embarrassed and said, "It's really the same person, but it's ......."

Although Dasha didn't finish his words, Chu Chen also understood what he meant, Dasha was afraid that the price he gave would be good, so the seller would sell things directly to him in the future.

Dasha's idea, Chu Chen also thought of it, he also had a corresponding plan before, if Dasha didn't sue the seller directly, he was ready to take it step by step. Slowly understand who the seller is, of course, there is a direct way, which is to send someone to investigate.

But this kind of thing. Unless it's Dasha who wants to say it, or someone who happens to meet an insider, it's definitely not easy to investigate. It can't be said that people will ask from door to door. Is that box sold by their family?

Chu Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Boss Duan." I don't mean anything else, it's just that my museum is going to open and I want to collect more exhibits, so I want to ask, is there anything good on his side? If you have one, you can bring it to me directly, and of course, if you are willing to take me there, the cost is also negotiable. ”

With Dasha's brain, Chu Chen didn't dare to ask too directly, otherwise Dasha would definitely have some suspicions, after all, it was related to Wei Zhongxian's treasure, and he felt that it was better to be cautious.

Dasha thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what else he has, or I'll call you after I ask." ”

"Boss Duan, then I'll trouble you." Chu Chen smiled and handed over his business card.

The two sides politely said a few words, Chu Chen took the things and left, today's purpose was not achieved, he felt a little regretful in his heart, however, his mouth was on someone else's body, and he was not very good at forcing Dasha to tell the news, this matter can only be done slowly, I hope Dasha can bring him a good news.

Coming out of the ghost market, it was already dawn, Chu Chen put the porcelain in the car, and then drove to the old man to treat him. When the old couple saw Chu Chen coming, the joy in their hearts didn't need to be said.

…………

In the next three days, Chu Chen was very busy, and he had decoration and work to deal with, and he had to go to Wucheng, and he had to give Zhenzhen treatment to Beijing from Shudu, and finally the master would definitely have to report the results of this trip to Star City and Porcelain Capital, and he had to find time to get together among friends, and he felt that he was going to turn around.

In addition, Chu Chen never received Dasha's call, which made him muttered a little in his heart, what the hell is going on with Dasha, even if he doesn't want to take him to the seller, don't you even want to make money? I can't figure it out, so he can only put this matter aside, and prepare to inquire about it the next time he encounters Dasha.

On Thursday, Chu Chen, who was finally free, sorted out the things he brought back from Xingcheng and Porcelain Capital with Wu Ke.

Wu Ke opened a box, took out an ornament from it, looked at it, and said, "Hey! Achen, what did you mean by buying this bronze horse ornament at that time, such a cheap thing, if there is nothing special, it shouldn't be in your eyes, right? ”

Chu Chen looked up at the things in Wu Ke's hand, and patted his head. After getting this ornament that day, there were so many things that I didn't have time to check at all. That night, because he had to catch a plane the next day, he was afraid that Wu Ke would not have enough sleep, so he couldn't help but open it.

After returning to Beijing, he chatted with his family until late, and Chu Chen also didn't come to deal with it that day, and in the next few days, he was very busy, and finally he simply forgot about it.

Seeing Chu Chen patting his forehead, Wu Ke smiled and said, "What's the matter, you won't say that you bought it because you were stupid, right?" ”

"Is your husband and I that boring?" Chu Chen laughed, took the ornament from Wu Ke's hand, and then pointed to a position on the base of the ornament, and said, "Keke, have you noticed the crack here?" ”

"Huh, what's going on?" Wu Ke looked at the place Chu Chen pointed to, and found that there was not only a crack there, but also almost a rectangular shape, and what made her feel a little surprised was that next to that place, there was a similar crack.

Seeing this, Wu Ke frowned and thought for a while, and then saw the smile on Chu Chen's face, she immediately thought of a possibility, and hurriedly asked, "Ah Chen, you mean, there is something hidden in this?" ”

Chu Chen smiled and nodded: "It should be, otherwise the red paint would not have cracked for no reason, and it was still in this shape." ”

Wu Ke felt that there was indeed such a possibility, at this time, she suddenly thought of something again, and said with some excitement: "Yes, there must be something hidden, otherwise the base of this ornament looks solid, it can't be so light, right?" Achen, you quickly remove the red paint and see what the hell is going on! ”

"Good ......"

Chu Chen took out his tools and carefully cleaned up the red paint around the crack, and soon, the two of them saw that there were indeed two openings in the crack, and they were sealed with small wooden strips of about the same size, because there was no tight seam, and it took a long time for the red paint on the surface to form cracks.

Next, Chu Chen took out two small wooden strips, and then easily poured out the contents inside, but they were two ancient coins.

"It's actually a three-hole cloth!" Seeing the appearance of the coin, Wu Ke immediately let out an exclamation. No matter how lonely she is, because she has a father who likes to collect, she also knows the preciousness of three-hole cloth.

The three-hole round-footed cloth coin, commonly known as the three-hole cloth, was the currency that circulated in the Zhao region in the late Warring States period. There are three holes on the surface of this cloth, and its shape has the characteristics of round-footed cloth, so Li Zuoxian's "Guquanhui" classifies it into the category of round-footed cloth, which belongs to a variety of round-footed cloth.

In the twenty-fourth year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, the famous Jinshi scholar Chu Shangling wrote 16 volumes of "Jijin Seeing", which published a copy of the "Southbound Tang" back twelve Zhu three-hole cloth hand, which introduced this cloth coin to the world for the first time.

Three-hole cloth because of the special shape, the stock is extremely rare, is the most mysterious kind of pre-Qin currency, the varieties found at present in addition to the "Mu" character (including large, small two types) has passed 10, the rest are within 10, many are only seen alone.

Therefore, Quanshu believes that it is "the rarest of the three Jin cloth coins", and most of the physical objects have disappeared, and there are few preserved in the hands of the private people or the cultural relics department, so its collection value is needless to say.

In addition to the rarity of the three-hole cloth, it is mainly the use of "Zhu (baht) two systems" to remember the weight. The three-hole cloth is divided into two equal currency values, the large one is one tael, and the small one is twelve Zhu (baht). At present, it has been found that most of them are small.

The two three-hole cloths in Chu Chen's hand belong to large three-hole cloths, with clear words, neat edges, and the whole body of the old pit is ancient, and there is no damage at all, and the condition can be described as perfect.

Three-hole cloth for the round foot, cloth head and two feet on each cast a round hole, there are two words "Songzi" on the face, the name of the place of the coinage, the number "fifteen" is cast on the perforation of the back head, the back text "one or two" font is slightly oblique, the weight of the coin.

Wu Ke said with a smile: "Achen, there should have been a record of the excavation of the 'Songzi' three-hole cloth, I used to see the newspaper say that it was the only one." ”

Chu Chen said with a smile: "If you look at the weight, that one should indeed be the only one, because that three-hole cloth is a small one, and this one is a large three-hole cloth." ”

Wu Keyan said happily when he heard this: "Doesn't that mean that this one of ours is more precious than that one?" ”

Chu Chen said: "If you compare the size, we must be more precious, but the 'Songzi' three-hole cloth is the only physical object with accurate archaeological excavations, and its significance is very precious." Therefore, the value of the two is really not easy to judge, and besides, such a coin will not be sold, so don't care about its economic value. (To be continued......)
