Li Jie's purpose Xu Yang knows well, that is, he is playing his own mind, as for how this person acts, Xu Yang doesn't know yet, Xu Yang also wants to see it.
"Xu Yang, in fact, there is a little thing to find you this time, I'm sorry to trouble you once!" Li Jie said, with a look of guilt, Xu Yang said in his heart, here!
"Brother Li, what you said is a bit too much, although our friendship is short, but you know my personality for a long time, if you don't trouble me, I will be angry. ”
"That's good! I'm not welcome, then I'll say it directly, I heard that I have also seen Xu Yang's attainments in porcelain and jade, but I want to ask if you have any knowledge of bronze?" Listening to Li Jie's words, Xu Yang was also stunned, he originally thought that the other party would definitely take out a piece of porcelain or jade, a thing that opened the door wide to seduce him, but he didn't expect it to be bronze.
"Well, I guess I'm a little bit dabbling! Because when I was learning jade, a lot of jade was inlaid on bronze ware, so I also learned a little bit. Xu Yang's words are telling the truth, but what he didn't tell the truth is that he is not dabbling in a little, with a glance and unforgettable, and after having super logical thinking, he can learn anything a thousand miles a day, too much, he reads a book for an hour a day, which is more powerful than others reading a day.
"That's good! Actually, it's like this, I got the most bronze artifact, and you also know that my reputation in the antique world is not good, so I found a few people to identify it, and I don't know if these people are perfunctory to me, or I really don't know, and I haven't identified the age and provenance of this bronze artifact! It was during the exchange meeting that I was also excited to get your call. I'm coming to trouble you, and I haven't been able to call you in the past two days!"
After listening to Li Jie's words, whether it was true or not, Xu Yang was somewhat interested, he wanted to see what kind of bronze Li Jie could take out to fool himself. Hearing that the other party was looking for him, Xu Yang smiled embarrassedly, and the ** and absurdity of the two nights immediately echoed in his mind, shook his head, threw the dirty thoughts out of his mind and said: "Hehe, you also know that I took over an orphanage, so I've been very busy recently." By the way, Brother Li, did you bring something?"
"It's not on you, it's in one place. But Xu Yang, if you're okay in the afternoon, we can go and have a look. After hearing this, Xu Yang pondered for a moment and nodded, "It's okay!" But I can't leave the capital at the moment, because I still have to be busy with the affairs of the orphanage!"
"I can't leave the capital, but I put the bronze outside the capital. Li Jie said a little embarrassed, but immediately said: "It's okay, I'll go and get it!"
"Brother Li, is it safe to put it outside of the effect?" asked Xu Yang.
"Of course it's safe, that place can be said to be the safest place, you won't have heard of the place "Red Plum Hall" in the capital!" Li Jie said with some pride.
...... Xu Yang didn't want to say anything, could it be that he really couldn't get rid of this "Red Plum Hall", and a lot of things have happened around the hall recently. If it's not easy to do it in the guild hall, it's your own one-acre and three-point land.
"It turned out to be there, but I was only a low-level member there, and I got it through a few days of trusting a lot of connections. It seems that Brother Li is also a member there, and his level is quite high. Xu Yang said in an envious tone, if this is for the fifth uncle to see, he has to shoot Xu Yang to death, this kid pretends to be the truth, he is now the tallest there except for the fifth uncle.
"It's okay! It's okay! Fool, I will have the opportunity to be a brother to help you in the future." Li Jie is modest on the lips, but on the surface he does look very good.
After the two finished eating, Xu Yang called Kong Dongfei, although there was a hearing and language barrier, but he had no skills to speak.
Li Jie sat in Xu Yang's car, Kong Dongfei drove the car, and soon arrived at the Hongmei Hall, as if he had just left a few days ago and came back.
After arriving at the hall, Xu Yang came to the public hall lounge, and secretly informed the people here that he regarded himself as a new member and did not give himself privileges, although he didn't know why Xu Yang did this, but Steward Xu still carried out Xu Yang's orders very well.
After a while, Li Jie came over with a small lockbox. smiled and said: "The things are here, let's find a place to chat!" Xu Yang nodded helplessly and said: "Then it's better for Brother Li to find a place, a member like me can't go to many places." ”
"Haha, don't worry, follow me!" It turns out that Li Jie's membership level here is really not low, and he can actually arrange a single room.
In Xu Yang's "envious" eyes, Li Jie was even more proud. After sitting down, he asked Xu Yang what he was drinking, Xu Yang said that he was drinking tea, and the two of them wanted another pot of good tea.
"Okay, let's get down to business, this is the bronze I got by chance, help me palm my eyes, see what period and dynasty this is. Li Jie took out a copper plate from the lockbox.
Xu Yang can see at a glance that this thing is extraordinary, and with Xu Yang's current eyesight, it can be seen that this thing is not like a fake thing, wearing white gloves, and this kind of person has to be careful, after putting on the gloves, Xu Yang took the copper plate.
The size of the copper plate is about the same as the size of the plate in the restaurant, and it is also round, but the most attractive thing about Xu Yang is the pattern at the bottom of the plate. How could this be? Xu Yang was shocked in his heart.
I felt that my heartbeat was a little faster, and my mood was not calm, which was very unfavorable to him in this situation, so Xu Yang immediately took a deep breath, calmed himself down and said: "Brother Li, where did you get this thing, if it's inconvenient to say it, you can not say it, I'll just ask!"
"Huh...... There's nothing you can't say, don't think of your brother Li as so bad!" Li Jie said as if he was a little joking, and then said: "Actually, getting this thing can be regarded as an accident and an inevitability! This is what I got from a tomb robber, and it was also received from an international tomb robber! The reason why your brother Li has a bad character in the industry is that those people have nothing to say, and the reason is that those hypocritical guys are bitches and set up archways.
My brother also knows that he has deceived these people, but they never say the good things that these people get from me, just take the fat man last time, he got a superb product in my hand, why didn't he say it. So these people don't cheat in vain, you Brother Li likes antiques, but he prefers money!"
This person didn't seem to care what Xu Yang thought of him, what he had to say. But after listening to these words, Xu Yang thought it was true, now there are too many people like you, compared to those hypocrites, this real villain in front of him seems to look good, just had this idea, and his heart was shocked, this person is a master, just a few words, it seems to be self-tyrannical, and he really let his heart relax his vigilance.
I was surprised in my heart, and I said with a very agreeable mouth: "That is, what Brother Li said is really reasonable, in fact, I don't have any special thoughts about Brother Li, because we are not familiar with each other, and I never believe what I heard from others." But let's talk about this copper plate!" Xu Yang said after changing the topic.
"Hmm, could it be that my brother can see something?" Li Jie said in surprise, he was surprised from the bottom of his heart, he didn't expect Xu Yang to really see it.
"It's probably a little bit obvious, but I'm not sure yet, if it's really what I want, then Brother Li, you may really have received good goods. Xu Yang said with a smile.
"Tell me about your good words. I don't know if I'm really in a hurry or fake, anyway, Li Jie has some excited and anxious expressions.
"Actually, I'm just guessing where the age of this copper plate comes from, and I can't be sure, after all, my major is not this. But I'm all too familiar with this pattern. Xu Yang pointed to the pattern at the bottom of the copper plate and said.
In fact, this copper plate is not used to hold things, but an ornament, and the pattern on it is "double-headed eagle"!
The double-headed eagle is a motif commonly found in the coats of arms and flags of European countries. To this day, the double-headed eagle remains on the coats of arms or flags of several Slavic and Eastern European countries, and their double-headed eagles are references to the coat of arms of the Byzantine Empire!
According to archaeologists' research, the prototype of the double-headed eagle is a mural of a two-headed woman painted around 6000 BC in the ancient Turkish city of Kataohou Yuk. The earliest double-headed eagle image found today is on an ancient Hittite clay medallion carved in 1750 BC or 1715 BC, unearthed near Boğazikoy, Turkey. Double-headed eagle motifs from later dates can be found on other Hittite sites. However, in various sites of the late Hittite period, which began in the 9th century BC, no trace of the double-headed eagle pattern has been found.
And in terms of the style of this double-headed eagle and the material and craftsmanship of the plate, I have preliminarily identified it as something from the ancient Hittite Kingdom, if it can be determined, then Brother Li, you are really rich, this is an object from 1500 to 2000 BC. Let's not talk about its original identity value, that is, in the historical sense, you will know!"
Listening to Xu Yang's words, Li Jie was also very excited, at least on the surface, but he was really shocked in his heart. Li Jie, who was excited, said embarrassedly: "Brother, I'm sorry, I like to go to the toilet when I'm excited!"
Xu Yang smiled and nodded! Then Li Zhuo went, Xu Yang looked at the copper plate in his hand with interest, at first he was not sure, but just now he used his ability to monitor the other party's eyes, his facial expression was sophisticated, and his eyes would still show flaws, just when he said the ancient kingdom of the Hittite, the other party's eyes shrank obviously, it seems that the other party really made money.
At this time, Li Jie was talking on the phone in the toilet: "Hey, things have changed, and there is a mistake in judgment...... Be...... "As Xu Yang thought, Li Jie was by no means alone, the competition between Xu Yang and Li Jie had just begun, and Li Jie really didn't know that all his actions in the hall were being monitored, including the phone ......
