195 Yijian
Coming down from the square, Ling Qi had not even started shopping when he was first attracted by the crowd outside a storefront.
Don't look at the main business here is not a public item, after all, it is a concentration of antiquities and curiosities of the whole civilization, there is no shortage of people who try to Taobao to hit the luck, and there are also some people who want to sell at a good price with "ancestral treasures", so there are still a lot of people.
But the storefront in front was noticeably livelier than the surrounding area, with crowds gathering and noise coming from time to time. For Ling Qi, who has nothing to do now, this kind of occasion definitely needs to be taken a look.
As he got closer, another round of exclamations suddenly erupted, and Ling Qi vaguely heard exclamations such as "It's so lucky", "It's developed, you don't have to worry about it in this life", "Amazing, you know all this kind of information".
When Ling Qi came closer, he was speechless when he found that he couldn't squeeze into the crowd. This kind of scene like an ancient onlooker actually appeared in the online virtual space of interstellar civilization, which really made him feel out of harmony.
The scene suddenly became quiet again, and there was no discussion, and Ling Qi couldn't figure out what was going on for a while. From the exclamation he had just heard, he guessed that it might have something to do with the treasure.
"Dude, what's going on in there?" Ling Qi pulled a tall man beside him who stood on tiptoe and looked inside.
The tall man glanced back at him: "Yijian, what else can you do!" ”
And Yijian? Ling Qi was even more surprised, he had seen free clinics and charity performances, and he had never heard of "Yijian". Literally, it means that the appraiser helps people identify items for free. He looked around and immediately made a judgment in his mind.
The street is wide, and this storefront is a big store, and there is an open space of one or two hundred square meters on the side of the door, and the crowd is gathered around this open space.
There is no reason for the appraiser association to come here to do a charity forensics, it must be an event organized by this store to attract popularity. Otherwise, you shouldn't use this kind of street form, at least you have to apply for a large conference room or venue from Spatial Intelligence, like the TV appraisal program that Ling Qi had seen in his previous life, and the seats were neatly arranged.
Ling Qi couldn't figure it out now, antiquities and curiosities generally exist with high value, and this kind of store has not been open for three years, and it has been open for three years, why is this store engaging in this kind of activity with great fanfare?
He looked around and could see that there were people in the upper places inside.
There was no way, Ling Qi began to use his skillful strength to drill into the crowd. He was as nimble as a swimming fish, making people feel slippery and squeezed behind by him.
In a few moments, Ling Qi stood at the front of the crowd. At this time, he saw that the scene actually simulated seats, but there were not many.
There was a workbench against the wall, and behind it were two old men with glasses who were busy, and there were some detection tools on the table, and Ling Qi even saw a spectrometer and an ultrasonic detector.
In front of the stage, there are five rows of seats, each row of more than a dozen, already full of people, each holding a different style of items in their hands, at first glance it is impossible to tell what value there is.
Ling Qi was a quiet spectator like everyone else, watching the two old men tinkering with a familiar disc on the workbench. After a while, he finally recognized what it was.
It was an ancient compass, but there was nothing left of the heavenly stem and the earthly branch, only the structure of the heavenly pool and the outer disk remained, and the pointer did not exist.
With this empty shell, Ling Qi, who was gradually integrating into the consciousness of interstellar civilization, didn't recognize it at once.
After another ten minutes, the two appraisers stopped their movements, and after talking to each other for a while, they announced the appraisal conclusion, which was part of the ancient compass.
They claim that this is an old antiquity with a history of more than 2,000 years, and that the conservation measures are well done and have not decayed. However, the value of this thing itself is limited, and the collection and archaeological significance are greater.
The owner, a middle-aged woman, saw her take the item with a disappointed expression, and one of the appraisers added:
"Of course, this is theoretical. However, the function of this item belongs to the category of metaphysics, and I heard that there is a Jingyue Empire that attaches great importance to metaphysical research, and if this thing appears in the Jingyue Empire, it is unknown that it may be attached to another value. ”
Ling Qihu looked at the old man suspiciously.
He happened to be in the Jingyue Empire, and there was such a scene as soon as he squeezed in, if he hadn't come here by chance, he would definitely have reason to suspect that these people were playing a game against him.
The middle-aged woman holding the compass parts had a happy face and thanked her again and again, with thoughts in her eyes. Looking at it that way, there is a ninety percent chance that she will teleport to the virtual community of the Jingyue Empire to try her luck later.
Ling Qi decided to ask her for a hand later to see if it was something great.
The think tank of spatial intelligence is indeed powerful, and it stores a huge amount of item identification information. But that's all artificially given information, and it's not all or infallible.
Even if the official conclusion is approved by the highest-level appraiser, it is only relatively authoritative, and there is still a possibility of it being overturned, let alone the conclusion given by the current on-site appraisal.
However, the captain system that defies the sky to the level of world rules gives an absolute authority to the appraisal conclusion, at least so far Ling Qi has not encountered an item that cannot be identified.
Don't forget that even the stalagmites have stone spirit milk, you can identify it!
If you're lucky, you'll be able to pick up the spills.
At this time, someone took an item and sent it to the workbench to entrust two appraisers to help identify it. Looking at the seats, if you sort them front and back, he is already the last.
It was a delicately crafted stoneware teapot with excellent pulp and a warm glow. The owner claims that this is a treasure that has been passed down from the ancestors for dozens of generations, and it is a sharp weapon for drinking tea, which has a very obvious addition to the smoothness of the tea soup.
The appraiser used a spectrometer to analyze and confirm that the history of this teapot is indeed more than 1,000 years.
As soon as the conclusion came out, the surrounding uproar recurred. This thing is not the same as the compass fragment just now, it also has a long history, but the market value is very different.
Under the envious gaze of the onlookers, the owner happily stepped forward to retrieve the teapot.
Just as the crowd was about to disperse, a man walked up to the workbench and thanked the two appraisers. He then told the crowd that his shop had just received a batch of antiquities from an adventuring party, supposedly found from a ruin, all of which had not been identified. If you want to try your luck, you can pick one or two pieces that have an eye.
Hearing him say this, Ling Qi immediately understood the purpose of this activity, and it was still a routine. It is estimated that some of the high-value items that come forward to identify are arranged childcare, so as to stimulate the audience's luck psychology and gambling.
I understand that there are not a few people, many people are already leaving, but there are also some people who are interested and really follow each other into the store.
Ling Qi saw that the woman who was holding the remnant of the compass had also followed, so he walked towards the door of the store without thinking.
