Chapter 161: Sui Dynasty Bronze Buddha Statue

Lu Xin was a little apprehensive: "Senior Brother Yang, how do I think, why is this place so evil, it makes people panic, and the lighting is so bad, how can we see good things, or let's wait for dawn to come back!" ”

Yang said nonchalantly: "Senior Brother Lu, do you know that this street is called Touching Gold Street, which used to be the place where Captain Touching Gold lived and sold stolen goods, what is Captain Touching Jin, that is, those tomb robbers who dig graves and dig graves, they and the treasures they dig out are full of yin energy, and over time, this place has become so gloomy, in fact, as long as the masculinity on the body is heavy enough, there is nothing to do with a few trips, many collectors who are not rich or expensive are delicate and expensive, and they dare not come to buy goods in person, but they give us middlemen a lot of cheapness!" Senior Brother Lu, you are very energetic, what are you afraid of, go in! Don't worry about seeing clearly, your Senior Brother Yang and I have undergone special training in these eyes, and we can still see objects clearly in the dark, hehe, comparable to an owl! ”

Hearing Yang Dayan say this, Lu Xin was relieved to follow him in.

Approaching the intersection of Jinjie Street, Lu Xinneng vaguely noticed that there were many pairs of eyes looking at him vigilantly as a stranger, perhaps because he was following Yang Dayan, and they all relaxed their vigilance.

After really entering Touchjin Street, Lu Xin was not as nervous as before.

When he was very young, his hometown was not connected to electricity, and he lit this dim kerosene lamp, and when he was a child, he was bold and mischievous, and he and his friends climbed into the graves hollowed out by hares and rats, and even some children took out some burial goods from them, and their primary school was built on a mass grave. Once when they were digging a pit and planting trees, they dug up a skeleton, and Lu Xin, who had experienced these things, was actually very bold.

Yang Dayan whispered to Lu Xin as he walked: "The shopkeepers of these shops are all generations of Jinjin captains, and now they also directly start those things that have been excavated through various construction projects, in short, there is a rule in Jiangzhou, all the treasures dug out of the ground must be in the Jinjin Street, so there will be some genuine goods here, some boutiques!" ”

His big eyes suddenly stopped on a stall and he hurried over. Lu Xin also hurriedly followed.

Yang squatted down with big eyes. Look at the ten bronze Buddha statues on the stall.

The ten Buddha statues are all identical, with large heads, small bodies, and slightly shorter legs. The proportions of the human body are inaccurate. The shape looks dull. Lack of dynamics and postural changes, a flat bun and a plump face. Wearing a Buddha costume with a belt, the clothing pattern is very shallow, the body is full, the particles of Yingluo are too large, the workmanship seems to be a little rough, sagging over the knees, the treasure and the shawl are also hanging low to both sides, lack of elegant dynamics, these Buddha statues are rusty on them, it seems that they have really been buried on the ground for many years, and the Buddha statues are mixed with some soil in some places, as if they were newly dug out not long ago.

I don't know if Lu Dao has the reason for the ability to control gold, Lu Xin's vision is also significantly enhanced now, and he can clearly see the details of those Buddha statues under the kerosene lamp, but he is still a layman, and he only sees that these Buddha statues are too different from what he usually sees, thinking that these are rough imitations, so he looked at Yang Dayan strangely, for what Senior Brother Yang would waste time on these bronze statues.

Yang Dayan realized Lu Xin's doubts, and said in a low voice: "I suspect that this is a bronze Buddha statue of the Sui Dynasty, the mainstream of the statue follows the style of the Northern Zhou Dynasty statue, but it has the characteristics of the transition to the mature bronze Buddha statue of the Tang Dynasty, so it seems nondescript, but because it has a small number of surviving in the world, the value is relatively high!" ”

"How much is it worth?"

"I'm not sure, but in recent years, the bronze Buddha statue in the auction market can be described as shining, by the collectors from all walks of life highly sought after, the transaction price has repeatedly hit new highs, in 06 years of Xiangjiangsu Fubi an autumn auction, a Ming Yongle gilt Sakyamuni seated statue with 123.59 million Hong Kong dollars successfully auctioned, set a bronze Buddha artwork so far the highest auction record in the world, with the scarcity of bronze Buddha statues in the Sui Dynasty, the auction of millions of possibilities, auction tens of millions is also possible, it depends on the hype of the auction company!"

"Then what are you hesitating about? Buy them all! ”

"Hey, most of these Buddha statues are fakes that have been carefully imitated according to the real thing, and the surface has been deliberately worn, if I help you choose the wrong one, wouldn't you become a big wrong!"

"Aren't they the descendants of Captain Jin, who only know how to dig graves, how can they still make fakes?"

"Who wants to train their children and grandchildren to dig graves like themselves, those descendants of the golden captains, more of them are making fakes, because their relatives and friends are still digging graves, they can get in touch with first-hand cultural relics, they can make high-imitation fakes in the first time, they can sell them at the same price as the real thing, and selling fakes is more profitable than selling the real thing directly!"

Lu Xin was speechless, this is an era when even tomb robbers are not doing their jobs and rushing to make fakes.

Yang stared at the ten Buddha statues carefully, and after looking at them for a long time, he couldn't tell which of these Buddha statues was genuine.

Lu Xin looked at him with a tangled face, and knew that it was time for him to go out.

He stretched out his hand and quietly pressed a Buddha statue, exerted his ability to control gold, analyzed the metal composition of the bronze Buddha statue, and was surprised to find that the metal substances used inside and outside the Buddha statue were very different.

He glanced up at the shopkeeper, who was used to this kind of counterfeit business, and his face was indifferent.

Lu Xin unceremoniously absorbed all the metal energy in the copper material of this Buddha statue, hum, tomb robber, don't say that you put it out and sell it for 100,000 yuan, even if you can't sell it for 1,000 yuan.

He quietly touched several other bronze Buddha statues, and found that only one was old inside and out, and there was patina inside, and the patina seeped out of the copper material, as if it was innate, and it was very coordinated, and the detailed metal composition of the copper material of this bronze statue was completely different from the few just now, and the copper materials used in the copper statues were clearly made by modern technology, with fewer impurities, and the copper materials used in this bronze statue were not pure enough, containing many impurities, and seemed to be copper materials made by ancient processes.

He absorbed the metal energy of the copper in the other fakes to make up for the loss of his ability to control gold, and then pulled Yang Dayan aside and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, you say, do they have genuine goods in their shop?" ”

Yang said with a smile: "There is an unwritten rule in this touching gold street, each shop can put out a variety of fakes, but one must be true, if the Taobao people buy all the goods, the most difficult thing to find is all fakes, this shop must close its doors and get out, so these shops dare not put all fakes, a series of antiques must have one is genuine!" ”

Lu Xin smiled and said, "Then why don't you just buy it all?" ”

Yang Dayan smiled bitterly: "These shop owners have been doing this business for generations, they are very shrewd, they can roughly estimate the auction price of genuine products, divide this auction price by the total number of genuine products and fakes they produce, and then calculate the unit price, the unit price is very expensive, if ordinary people buy them all, they will not make much money, and they may even lose!" And now it is stipulated that you can only buy one at a time! ”

"Isn't that the same as gambling? Bet on one out of ten? ”

"Gambling here, at least there is hope, because there is one real one out of a dozen here, there is no hope in other places, and there may not be one true one out of a thousand antiques there, where do you say you are willing to gamble?" (To be continued......)
