There is also an inner courtyard at the back of the Treasure Hunting Pavilion, and when you enter through the small door, you can see a room locked by a lock. Fang Nian and the others followed the man to the house, and found that the decoration here was not as good as the outside, and there were few things, a total of seven or eight pieces.

Fang Nian glanced at it and found that in addition to the two pieces of pottery, there were a total of six things, two calligraphy and paintings, two pieces of jade, and two bronzes.

Fang Nian frowned, through the fluctuations generated on these six things, Fang Nian could be sure that they were all antiques with a long history, especially those two bronzes, an incense burner and a dagger, which were even more valuable, and indeed formed a sharp contrast with the things outside.

Fang Nian looked at these things in front of him, although the calligraphy and painting were good, the age was okay, it was something from the Ming Dynasty. But the author is not very famous, and belongs to the kind of character that is not well known. Therefore, these two paintings are indeed not suitable for gifts.

As for the two pieces of pottery, as well as the two pieces of jade, they are too recent and belong to the Qing Dynasty, and they are not sincere enough. Therefore, Fang Nian set his eyes on the two bronzes.

Bronze ware, known as "gold" or "jijin" in ancient times, is an alloy of red copper and other chemical elements such as tin and lead, and its patina is blue-green.

The use of bronze began in the late Neolithic period and originated in the European generation. Chinese bronzes began from Majiayao to the Qin and Han dynasties, and the Shang and Zhou dynasties were the most exquisite. It has appeared in the early period of Yangshao culture and Majiayao culture in China.

The first thing that appeared in China was small tools or ornaments. The Xia Dynasty began to have bronze vessels and weapons. In the middle of the Shang Dynasty, the variety of bronzes was already abundant, and inscriptions and fine patterns appeared. From the late Shang period to the early Western Zhou Dynasty, it was the heyday of the development of bronze ware, with a variety of types, thick and dignified, gradually lengthened inscriptions, and rich patterns.

Subsequently, the bronze carcass began to thin and the ornamentation was gradually simplified. From the late Spring and Autumn period to the Warring States period, due to the popularization and use of ironware, copper tools became less and less. During the Qin and Han dynasties, as pottery and lacquerware entered daily life, the variety of copper vessels decreased, the decoration was simple, mostly plain, and the carcass was thinner.

Therefore, in terms of the sense of historical age, bronze is indeed the most suitable thing.

Of course, in fact, before the catastrophe, bronzes were not tradable, and they belonged to the state's first-class cultural relics, which had to be handed over to the state. Although this rule was eased after the Great Tribulation, it was still a death order that could not be overcome.

Therefore, although Fang Nian liked this bronze, he still gave up.

"Forget it, let's go to someone else's house and have a look."

As he spoke, Fang Nian planned to leave with Xia Moyan.

But the boss's eyes are so thieves, he saw at a glance that Fang Nian liked these two bronzes, but he was worried about breaking the law, so he stopped Fang Nian and took out a bronze knife from the dark compartment next to him.

"Friend, look at how this thing is, although it is not an antique, but its value is not lower than that of an antique."

Fang Nian looked at the bronze knife in front of him and was slightly stunned, then took it in his hand and played with it twice, and was stunned for a moment.

Xia Moyan also came over to take a look when he saw this, but he didn't have any special feelings, he just felt that this knife was very sharp and heavy, and the material used should not be ordinary, it couldn't be just ordinary bronze.

"Boss, how much is this knife, I want to hear the real price."

When the boss heard that Fang Nian was really interested in this knife, he was also in a good mood, and after thinking about it, he compared three fingers. Fang Nian thought about it, and almost without hesitation, he agreed.

"Okay, 3 million, my wife pays."

Fang Nian agreed, the boss was happy, and Xia Moyan was also happy, but Xia Moyan, who was called by Fang Nian's wife, was a little embarrassed.

After paying the money and taking the things, the two of them went out of the Hunting Cloud Pavilion, and Xia Moyan couldn't wait to ask Fang Nian.

"What the hell is this, I don't look like an antique, why is it worth so much money? Don't you even bargain? ”

Fang Nian smiled slightly when he heard this, and then asked Xia Moyan.

"You stupid girl, the reason why this thing is valuable is not because of the age of this knife, but because of the material of this knife. Have you ever heard of the Millennial Darksteel? ”

Xia Moyan shook his head ignorantly, Xia Moyan really didn't know anything about the things that these men cared about, and he didn't know what Fang Nian was talking about.

Fang Nian smiled helplessly, this is what Xia Moyan explained.

"Dark iron is actually a tungsten-containing meteorite metal, which is produced by weightlessness and vacuum in outer space. Forming in the universe will make it better than metal. Moreover, the hardness and melting point have also become very high, making it difficult to mold, so the dark iron has also become synonymous with ancient divine soldiers. ”

Xia Moyan heard Fang Nian say this, and only then did he understand.

"Oh, so this kind of dark iron is rare?"

Fang Nian waved his hand.

"He instructions are rare, it's hard to find, anyway, it's the first time I've seen it, so the 3 million flowers are not expensive at all."

Xia Moyan nodded, indeed as Fang Nian said, if this thing is really so rare, then 3 million is really not very expensive.

However, just as the two were talking, the boss of Lieyun Pavilion just now staggered out, followed by a small unit, each with a machine gun, and the outfit should be the military of District 16.

Fang Nian was stunned, and was just about to pull Xia Moyan away, but before he could move his legs, the boss stumbled and fell at Fang Nian's feet, pulling the corners of Fang Nian's pants and crying, crying a shocking crying ghost, snot and tears, especially miserable.

"Brother, big brother, grandpa, you must save me this time, you must save me."

Fang Nian was a little inexplicable and wanted to pull this boss away, but he couldn't shake it off, and the scene was extremely embarrassing for a while, as if Fang Niang had robbed his wife.

"I said boss, what are you doing here, I have already given you the money just now, and I still have the receipt in black and white? Don't do that. ”

When the boss heard Fang Nian say this, he couldn't control his emotions anymore and cried.

"Brother, it's that bronze knife, I won't sell it, can you return it to me."

Hearing this, Fang Nian hurriedly waved his hand.

"Hey...... How can I do that, how can I ask for a return to the things I sold, and besides, I bought them back with real money, this thing is already mine, and it is impossible for me to sell it. ”

When the boss heard this, he hurriedly said.

"Brother, grandpa, I'll add money, I'll pay double the money, can you sell it to me, I beg you. If I can't get this knife back, I'll be dead, and even you will be out of luck. ”

Fang Nian was slightly stunned when he heard this, and at this time, the unit was also standing less than 10 meters away from them, and a person who looked like an officer came out of the team, thinking that Fang Nian was coming here.
