Five-five-five, the golden scepter
Actually, Ye Zifeng didn't know why he wanted to do this, he just felt that he wanted to be like this, so that's it.
Ye Zifeng is not a cautious person, Wang Xiaowang is his old enemy, but he has been defeated, Ye Zifeng will not step on another failed one.
Ye Zifeng is not a person who hates the rich, although he himself is not rich and rivals the country, but he is also worth an amazing amount, he has no reason to pull hatred and go toe-to-toe with Robert.
But Ye Zifeng did this, just because he had a strange feeling, which was indescribable.
Anyway, just like that, Ye Zifeng and Robert got into a confrontation, and Ye Zifeng didn't care if he was from the Rothschilds, so what? Isn't it?
The next auction item was carefully held up by the two men in black, and everyone stared at it with wide eyes when they saw that the auctioneer was so cautious.
This object is a wooden box, antique, but as you know, this antique and wooden box is just a container, and the owner is in this wooden box.
This wooden box is slender, and the object in the wooden box should also be an elongated object.
So what could it be? Everyone is speculating!
"Is it an ancient painting?"
"Maybe it's a scroll of calligraphy!"
"It's not necessarily a sword!"
……
Everyone guessed from the shape of the wooden box what was inside.
The host whetted everyone's appetite, but he didn't open the wooden box and let everyone talk about it.
"What's inside this wooden box?" Li Kai asked Ye Zifeng in a low voice.
"Who knows! Don't you know when you open it? "Ye Zifeng doesn't have a clairway eye, of course he can't see through what's inside.
"This should be the legendary object in this cultural relics exchange conference, what is it? No one knows, but it must be extraordinary! Extraordinary! Cao Ye said eagerly.
Hearing Cao Ye say two "extraordinary" in a row, everyone's eyes became bright. You must know that the objects auctioned before can be said to be rare treasures, and I haven't seen Cao Ye say anything extraordinary, so it can be seen that this object must far exceed those previous treasures.
"What the hell could it be?" Now even Ye Zifeng is curious.
At this moment, Wang Xiaowang and Robert were looking at Du Ye with inquiring eyes.
And Du Ye smiled mysteriously and said, "A surprise! You'll know it right away when you open it! ”
Immediately, Du Ye hinted that the host would open the wooden box.
The host understood and carefully opened the wooden box, and suddenly, the audience was silent, his eyes were dull, and he couldn't pull out the objects in the wooden box.
"What is this? A stick? And early yellow? "Some people wondered.
"Is this copper or gold?" There is speculation.
"The legendary Golden Scepter?" Someone exclaimed.
……
As a result, the scene was thunderous.
Everyone knew that there would be a legendary object in this cultural relics exchange conference, but everyone never expected that it would be a golden scepter.
Among the existing unearthed cultural relics in China, only a golden scepter has been found at the Sanxingdui site. Could it be that this golden scepter is the golden scepter in the Sanxingdui ruins? Or was it also unearthed from Sanxingdui?
If it was unearthed from other sites, it might rewrite the history of Chinese civilization.
In China, since ancient times, the symbols of power are the ding, seal, and seal. And the scepter is only available in the West, such as ancient Babylon, ancient Egypt, and until now, some of them have royal families, and they also use the scepter to show power.
As a result, everyone speculated about the relationship between this golden scepter and the golden scepter in Sanxingdui.
After everyone's wheel passed, the scene was in an uproar, if this golden scepter is an antiquity, it is more rebellious than the golden scepter unearthed at the Sanxingdui site.
There was a lot of controversy at the scene, but more speculation was that the golden scepter was a modern scepter, because it was so exquisite, and the shape was almost exactly the same as Sanxingdui.
After Cao Ye and Ye Zifeng looked at each other, Cao Ye was shocked or confused in his heart, but Ye Zifeng was deeply shocked, extremely shocked!
"Zifeng, what do you think?" Cao Ye asked Ye Zifeng gently.
Now, everyone knows that it was the reason why Cao Ye asked Ye Zifeng to accompany him to participate in this cultural relics exchange conference.
No one can see through this golden scepter.
"Gotta take it!" Ye Zifeng did not directly answer Cao Ye's question, but said viciously.
Everyone could see from Ye Zifeng's tone and expression that this golden scepter was genuine, and it must be extraordinary. Because even if he encounters a national treasure-level cultural relic, Ye Zifeng has never had this kind of expression and tone, so it can be seen that this golden scepter should have far exceeded the grade of a national treasure-level cultural relic.
"Is it richer than the Rothschilds?" Li Kai poured a basin of cold water on Ye Zifeng.
If Robert insisted on taking down this golden scepter, no one could stop it, and Ye Zifeng felt powerless for the first time.
"It's not going to start right now, but there's always a way!" Ye Zifeng gritted his teeth and said.
This golden scepter must not be exiled, and if it falls into the hands of some people, the consequences are unimaginable.
Because it's not just a cultural relic.
Ye Zifeng looked at Robert, and he saw that Robert stood up excitedly and was lighting the second cigar.
Obviously, he came for this golden scepter, and the previous auction of cultural relics was just his hand.
Cao Ye was surprised by Ye Zifeng's expression. He said in amazement: "Is there a problem?" ”
"Sanxingdui's golden scepter Cao Ye should have seen it!" Ye Zifeng glanced at Cao Ye.
"I've seen it!" Cao Ye nodded cautiously.
Because the Sanxingdui civilization is very famous, the unearthed golden rod and sunbird are the symbols of the Sanxingdui civilization.
The Sanxingdui Golden Scepter was discovered in 1980 in Sanxingdui No. 1 pit, it is 143 centimeters long, about 2.3 centimeters in diameter, and weighs 463 grams. It is beaten into a gold skin with gold, and then wrapped on a wooden stick, which has been about 4,000 years ago, because of the age, the wooden staff inside has been carbonized, and only a layer of gold skin on the outside was left when it was unearthed.
At the top of the gold scepter, a group of human heads are engraved, wearing a five-toothed crown, smiling, and a pair of triangular earrings hanging from each ear, and there are also opposing bird heads, fish backs and arrow feathers under the pattern.
Therefore, it has always been believed that this golden scepter represents political and religious power, and is the staff of power.
The golden scepter that is now being auctioned is the same size as the golden branch unearthed in Sanxingdui, and is also engraved with a human head, a five-toothed crown, a bird, a fish and an arrow.
The difference is that it's made of pure gold.
Therefore, it has attracted everyone's general suspicion that this scepter made of pure gold is a handicraft made of imitation of the gold scepter unearthed in Sanxingdui.
It is first-class in craftsmanship, and it is made of pure gold, which is naturally worth a lot of money, but compared to those treasured cultural relics, it is naturally not worth mentioning.
"I said that the golden scepter in Sanxingdui is an imitation, and this golden scepter is genuine, do you believe it?" Ye Zifeng glanced at the golden scepter placed in the wooden box and said to them.
"What? What did you say? You don't have a fever, do you? As soon as Ye Zifeng finished speaking, Li Kai was taken aback and said with his hand.
"Yes! Are you saying the opposite, this is an imitation? Zhang Jie was also surprised.
In their opinion, the unearthed gold scepter in Sanxingdui is the real genuine, because the wooden staff inside it has been carbonized and has been identified and approved by experts.
Now this golden scepter is made of pure gold, more like today's crafts.
But now Ye Zifeng actually said that the gold scepter unearthed in Sanxingdui is an imitation, and this golden scepter like a handicraft is genuine, doesn't this refer to the deer as a horse?
"How?"
Although Cao Ye was also surprised, he knew that Ye Zifeng was not a person who ran the train with his mouth full, and since he said so, he had his reasons.
"The Sanxingdui civilization is recognized as the ancient Shu civilization, and the golden scepter is not only a symbol of religious power, but also a symbol of national power. Have you ever seen a lord of a kingdom take a scepter of power into the ground and sacrifice it? Just like the emperors of the past dynasties, they would never bring the jade seal into the ground. Ye Zifeng glanced at everyone and said.
Everyone listened and fell into deep thought.
As we all know, the emperors of the past generations did not hide the objects that symbolize power in the ground, but kept them in the world to show that the power was passed on from generation to generation.
However, the ancient Shu Kingdom brought the golden scepter, which symbolizes power, into the ground, which is contrary to common sense.
"What if the country perishes? Will this be the case? Zhang Jie thought about it.
"Silly! Destroy the country, this is a great trophy, who will take it to the ground! Li Kai said.
Zhang Jie thought about it, so he nodded silently.
Cao Ye thought of something, his eyes lit up, and his breathing became heavy.
"It's entirely possible, but you must first prove that the current golden scepter is genuine!" Cao Ye got to the crux of the matter.
If it can't be proved that the golden scepter in front of you is genuine, then all speculation is in the air, like a tree without roots and water without a source.
"What kind of dumb riddles are you playing? Listen to it! Li Kai saw what Cao Ye and Ye Zifeng said, and they couldn't understand it.
"Yes! What's going on? Zhang Jie also asked suspiciously.
"Say it!" Cao Ye glanced at Ye Zifeng and asked Ye Zifeng to tell everyone what was going on.
"The thing should be like this, for the sake of the power, the ancient Shu Kingdom used sacrifices to communicate with the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, and the lord of the ancient Shu Kingdom used the golden scepter to sacrifice the whole country to the ghosts and gods in order to show his sincerity, so he used gold and platinum to imitate a golden scepter to replace the real golden scepter in his hand, and used it to sacrifice the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth!" Ye Zifeng explained to them.
Li Kai and Zhang Jie understood this time, it turned out that the lord of the ancient Shu Kingdom was reluctant to use the real golden scepter in his hand as a sacrifice, so he used a wooden scepter and gold and platinum to imitate a golden scepter instead.
In this way, two golden scepters appeared.
