This elephant ornament is indeed just like Gu Ming said, it is just an ordinary handicraft, and its age is not very old, and it cannot be compared with a real antique. (.marshmallow)

The reason why it attracted Gu Ming's attention was that the key point was no longer the production process of the elephant ornaments, but on the pair of tusks that were not pointed, but really thick.

When this elephant ornament fell to the ground before, Gu Ming just picked it up, and at that time, his left hand did not feel that there was anything special about the elephant, only because of the very faint heat from the elephant that Gu Ming took a second look.

This level of heat, except for the fact that Gu Ming could barely detect it, did not feel anything else, there was no joy in his heart, and there was no sound in his heart.

Thinking about it, the elephant ornaments of this kind of handicraft are basically mass-produced with molds and other items, and they have not been put into effort and energy, so naturally in some respects they are not as good as those made by people.

Later, Gu Ming's left hand inadvertently touched the tusks of the elephant ornament, and she felt the heat coming from her hand that was completely different from the elephant ornament itself, which attracted her to take a closer look.

"There's something brushed on this ivory to cover its original color, but you can see the tip of the ivory, it's a little bit discolored." Gu Ming gently stroked the tip of an elephant tusk and said to Qin Sheng.

It's not a big place, it's just a little bit of it, and if you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.

Gu Ming couldn't help Qin Sheng couldn't see clearly, and deliberately took out a high-powered magnifying glass from his suitcase.

If this is usually carried on her body, just because she is out to play today, she didn't expect that there would be a place where she would need to use a magnifying glass. So it's rare not to carry it with you.

Qin Sheng looked at it carefully for a while, then looked up at Gu Ming and said, "It seems to be golden, what do you think this might be?" ”

Gu Ming's eyes showed a hint of excitement, and she lowered her voice and said to Qin Sheng: "I think this is very likely to be gold!" ”

Originally, Gu Ming didn't think about this, but seeing the color of the tip of the ivory, coupled with the unexpectedly heavy elephant ornament, and the unusual heat coming from her hand, all made her involuntarily think about gold.

At first glance, the ivory of this elephant ornament is made of metal, although its exterior has been painted to cover its original color. But this does not prevent others from judging that he belongs to the metal production, and the elephant itself is made of copper, and most people are attracted by the elephant's body and other parts after seeing this elephant ornament, where will they examine the elephant's tusks so carefully.

In addition, the craftsmanship of the elephant itself is not very good. It's not noticeable at all when it's placed there, otherwise it wouldn't be Gu Ming's turn to discover it.

When Qin Sheng heard Gu Ming's answer, a bright light flashed in his eyes. He picked up the elephant ornament and bit down a little the elephant's tusks.

Sure enough, a shallow tooth mark landed on the elephant's tusks.

"It's soft." Qin Sheng nodded.

"Is that gold?" Gu Ming asked.

"I'm not sure yet, I'll have to clean up the paint on it and see what happens." Qin Sheng paused. Then he looked at Gu Ming and said, "Do you want to get it open now?" ”

Gu Ming thought about it and said to Qin Sheng: "If we make it ourselves, it may not be easy to get it, and we don't have the tools at hand." I'm not sure if this is gold or not, I think it's better to forget it, anyway, the thing is already in hand, so let's just take it back home and look at it. ”

"That's fine, this kind of craft is not eye-catching." Qin Sheng nodded, and then as if he remembered something, he said to Gu Ming: "Then what have you been staring at the base of this ornament before, is there anything wrong with its base?" ”

"I'm not sure about the base, but if the ivory alone was gold, this elephant ornament shouldn't be so heavy. It's really not quite fitting for its size. So I think ......"

"Do you think this base is also golden?" Qin Sheng frowned slightly, and couldn't help but turn over the elephant ornament in his hand, carefully observing the base part of the elephant ornament.

But he looked at it for a while. Not only did I touch it with my hand, but I also bit it with a little force. The rust in his mouth clearly told him that the base was indeed iron.

"This one is iron." Qin Sheng said.

"Of course I know it's iron." Gu Ming smiled, and then continued: "Actually, I'm not very sure, maybe it's this base, maybe it's the elephant ornament itself, if the ivory is really made of gold, then it's very likely that there will be gold hidden inside." Of course, this is just pure speculation on my part, and I need to find a place to check it out in detail. It's a pity that this is not a domestic country, otherwise you would just have to ask Professor Wang for help. ”

Qin Sheng took the elephant ornament in his hand and checked it, feeling that this weight was indeed a little wrong: "Let's just estimate it first, and we should be able to see if there is a denser metal hidden in this ornament." ”

"How?" Gu Ming looked at Qin Sheng inexplicably.

Qin Sheng smiled at the ancient tomb, then got up and called the hotel to ask for a few things.

It didn't take long for the hotel staff to send the things over according to Qin Sheng's request, but the staff who sent the things seemed to be a little curious, quietly stretched out his head to look at the door, and found that Gu Ming was standing at the door looking at him, so he immediately lowered his head, and left after receiving the tip.

"With these things?" Gu Ming looked at a pencil, a notebook, a very ordinary ruler and a simple hook-type nickname in Qin Sheng's hand, and couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"Just a rough estimate, these things are basically enough." Qin Sheng walked into the room with his things, and then began to measure the length, width, height and so on of the elephant base with a ruler, and weighed the weight of the entire elephant base with that simple scale, recorded various data, and then began to write and draw in the notebook.

Gu Ming looked at Qin Sheng's movements, and seemed to understand what Qin Sheng was going to do, looking at Qin Sheng's eyes, she couldn't help but have a little more admiration, the knowledge of physics was her relatively weak aspect.

Now that he has understood what Qin Sheng is going to do, Gu Ming naturally can't stand aside stupidly, when Qin Sheng was measuring and calculating one of the elephant ornaments, Gu Ming consciously picked up the other elephant ornament, and then carefully measured all kinds of data according to Qin Sheng's steps before.

Although the results may not be too accurate because of the relatively simple relationship between the tools, if there is really gold hidden in the elephant ornament, you should be able to get some useful information by putting on various formulas and adding or subtracting the total weight of the elephant ornament.

Most men are naturally sensitive to numbers, just like most women are sensitive to language, although Qin Sheng has not used this knowledge for a long time, but when it comes to really needing to use it, the various data formulas that need to be used quickly appear in his mind.

The hotel provided a delicious dinner for the people staying in the honeymoon villa, but firstly, Gu Ming and Qin Sheng came back from eating a lot of things outside, and secondly, the attention of the two of them was focused on the two elephant ornaments, where could they take care of the sweet dinner specially prepared for the newlyweds sent by the hotel, so the dinner that seemed very sweet was directly ignored by Qin Sheng and Gu Ming.

"Alright." Qin Sheng was busy for a while, and finally finished calculating, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

"How?" Gu Ming hurriedly asked.

"Because I don't know what the ratio of copper and iron is in this ornament, I can only roughly estimate it, and its weight is really different." Qin Sheng handed the notebook with the calculation results written on it to Gu Ming, and continued: "The actual weight of this elephant ornament far exceeds the calculated weight that it should have with its size, the elephant has always had an ivory, if they are all gold, I calculated it, and the weight I got still does not reach the weight I weighed in a small scale." ”

"In other words, there is a real chance that there is gold hidden in this?" Gu Ming looked at Qin Sheng with a little excitement.

"Yes." Qin Sheng nodded affirmatively and continued: "And I have estimated several metals with relatively high density, and looking at various circumstances, gold is the most likely. ”

When Gu Ming heard Qin Sheng's words, although she was not 100% sure that there was gold in this elephant ornament, she had already subconsciously decided that gold was a rare and precious metal, and her left hand would heat up when she touched it.

The thought that she had bought two lumps of gold for only 500 yuan made her feel overjoyed, although according to the weight of the two elephant ornaments, even if there was gold hidden in them, the weight would not be much, but she couldn't help but be excited.

Gold, something that is getting higher and higher every year, something that costs a few hundred dollars a gram, even if it is not an antique, its own value is not low!

Looking at the two elephant ornaments in front of him, Gu Ming's eyes couldn't help but appear with all kinds of beautiful gold jewelry, what rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, bracelets, all of them are cute cuties.

Qin Sheng looked at Gu Ming's eyes with an intoxicated look, he couldn't guess what Gu Ming was thinking at the moment, Gu Ming, who looked like a little wealthy, really made him laugh secretly.

Fortunately, Gu Ming didn't revel for long, and soon came to his senses, looking at Qin Sheng with bright eyes: "You say, how can this elephant ornament have gold in it, someone shouldn't have done it on purpose, right?" ”
