Chapter 286: A Fake of Three Thousand Oceans
Xu Tianchuan looked at the bronze cup in his hand carefully and repeatedly, and with the skill of "Tianjian Secret Technique", he could be 100% sure that this was a fake imitation of the Warring States.
You don't even need to rely on the "Tianjian Secret Technique" to see that this is a fake product, because in addition to the shape of the vessel, all aspects of the imitation are particularly fake, the whole is poured out of the mold, and then a little bronze rust is glued with rosin.
This kind of thing is a stall at best.
What makes Xu Tianchuan feel incredible is why there is an immortal text on it?
In general, there are two kinds of counterfeiting, one is counterfeiting and the other is fabrication.
Counterfeiting, as the name suggests, is to imitate and fake with the real as the prototype.
Another kind of fabrication is to rely on imagination to fake, and the fools are also ignorant people, which is also the lowest way of counterfeiting, commonly known as 'modern handicrafts'.
And this Warring States Bronze Cup is obviously a fabrication, because although the prototype is the Warring States Cup, the soles of the feet and the ornaments on the cup are not right.
Since it is a fabrication, it is very likely that the immortal text above was also added for the sake of good looks.
"Uncle, this cup ......"
Xing Chang next to him also seemed to see that this cup was a fake, but he also saw the immortal text of the aspect and felt very surprised.
But before Xing Chang could speak, Xu Tianchuan immediately gave him a look and signaled not to talk more.
"Yo, this lord, you have a good eye, this is the Warring States gluttonous pattern three-legged bronze cup, the mouth edge is outward, the front is pointed and the back is warped, and the bottom is three high, the quality is excellent, but the treasure of our store is also our shopkeeper's favorite one, if you like it, you can also cut your love, but this pretty goods, the price may be slightly higher."
The guy in the store saw Xu Tianchuan holding the bronze cup and looked at it for a long time, and immediately smelled the smell of money, and immediately introduced it with a smile on the side.
Xu Tianchuan nodded with a serious expression: "It is indeed a good thing, and the quality is also very perfect, you look at the gluttonous lines on it, the lines are hard, it is simply the best of the best!" As long as the stuff is good, the price is not an issue. ”
"This master, you are really too knowledgeable!"
As soon as he heard Xu Tianchuan's words, the guys in the store were so excited that they almost took off.
"What's the price?"
Xu Tianchuan turned his head to look at the guy in the store and asked.
The guy in the store rolled his eyes, thought in his heart for a few seconds, and then stretched out three fingers at Xu Tianchuan: "Three thousand, Dayang!" ”
Three...... Three thousand oceans?
If it weren't for the closeness, everyone would have thought that their ears were hallucinating.
This guy really dares to open his mouth, a bronze jue cup actually dares to ask for three thousand oceans, it is really a lion who opens his mouth, not to mention a fake fake, even if it is real, this is also a sky-high price.
When Jiao San and Xing Chang beside him heard this price, they were almost shocked and their eyeballs didn't fall out of their sockets.
But when Xu Tianchuan heard the price, he was extremely calm, and even nodded with a smile, looking like the price was very reasonable, and said, "The price is okay, that's okay......"
Yes?
The guy in the store seemed to be waiting for Xu Tianchuan to make a counteroffer, but he didn't expect Xu Tianchuan to even pay back the price, so his eyes widened in surprise, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and then deliberately repeated a sentence: "This master, what do you mean by this...... Are you sure you want it? ”
"Wrap up!"
Xu Tianchuan nodded again.
But in the eyes of Jiao San and Xing Chang next to him, Xu Tianchuan was simply crazy.
Even if you have money, you can't lose like this, three thousand oceans to buy a fake, even if there are a few immortal texts on it, it seems useless to buy it with just money.
"This master, you really have good eyesight, you sit and wait, I'll get you a good box and pack it!"
The guy in the store was so excited that he turned around and was about to run towards the counter.
A fake sells for 3,000 oceans, and he can get at least 500 commissions, which is simply a single rich man and goes directly to the peak of life.
"Hey, wait!"
That is, the guy in the store was about to turn around, Xu Tianchuan seemed to suddenly find something from the bronze cup, and immediately hurriedly stopped the guy in the store.
The guy in the store was shocked in his heart, for fear that Xu Tianchuan would suddenly see something, so he turned around with a little weakness and asked with a smile: "Master, what's wrong?" ”
Xu Tianchuan looked at the Warring States Jue Cup in his hand again, and pretended to be questioning and asked, "This cup seems to be a little wrong!" ”
"How...... How could it be, this Warring States Jue Cup is very positive both in terms of the shape and the decoration on it, how can it be wrong. ”
The guy in the store hurriedly tried his best to explain, after all, this is a big order of 3,000 oceans, and this is about to be sold, for fear that the fat duck in his mouth will fly again.
"That's not right...... Wrong...... Not right......"
Xu Tianchuan shook his head, pointed to a few immortal texts on the Warring States Jue Cup, and said: "I personally have a lot of research on the utensils of the Warring States Period, and I also have a collection at home, this Jue Cup looks really good, but the words on it are a bit problematic, this is not like an oracle bone inscription, nor does it look like a seal, there seems to be no such font in the Warring States Period, right?" ”
As soon as Jiao San and Xing Chang next to him heard Xu Tianchuan's words, they suddenly reacted to Xu Tianchuan's true intention of being willing to spend three thousand oceans to be the head of the wrong.
Regarding Xu Tianchuan's doubts, the guy in the store hurriedly explained: "This lord, you don't know something, this is exactly where this Warring States Jue Cup is worth three thousand oceans, if it is an ordinary Warring States Jue Cup, let alone three thousand oceans, even if it is a thousand oceans, I don't dare to open my mouth to you, the three words on it are Sanskrit, which is the exclusive text of a high-ranking royal family during the Warring States Period at that time, and ordinary people are not qualified to use it, which is equivalent to the exclusive supplies of the royal family, which can show the rarity and dignity!" I'll offer you 3,000, which is still a lot, because the world has been too chaotic in the past few years, and if it is a peaceful year, there are 5,000 oceans less, and you can't even touch it. ”
The guys in this store really have a set of words.
But to say what kind of Sanskrit this is, it's a bit outrageous.
So Xu Tianchuan still shook his head with suspicion, and said: "What you said, it's really the first time I've heard of it, otherwise, I'll give you the subscription money of fifty oceans first, and wait for me to ask the master, if there is really the exclusive text of the royal family you said during the Warring States Period, then I will buy it for three thousand oceans, if there is no right to pay the tuition fee for these fifty oceans, how about it?" ”
As he spoke, Xu Tianchuan took out fifty oceans from his pocket.
These fifty oceans are not a small number.
But for the guys in the store, they want to earn three thousand oceans, and if Xu Tianchuan leaves like this, eighty percent will definitely not be able to come back.
So the guy in the store gurgled and rolled his eyes again, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, the guy in the store seemed to have made some decision in his heart, and deliberately approached Xu Tianchuan, and said in a low voice: "Master, if you really want this Warring States Jue Cup, and you suspect that the words on it are fake, then I might as well tell you the origin of this word, and you will naturally understand after listening to it." ”
Oh?
When Xu Tianchuan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and his main purpose was precisely this.
It seems that Xu Tianchuan really guessed correctly, this guy knows the true way of Eternal Life! However, if he hadn't thought about selling this Warring States Jue Cup to Xu Tianchuan for three thousand oceans, it might not be easy to tell the truth.
"Then tell me, what else does this word come from?"
Although Xu Tianchuan was excited in his heart, he pretended to be extremely calm and asked rhetorically on the surface.
The guy in the store looked around again, although there were not many people in the shop, he still pulled Xu Tianchuan mysteriously, and motioned Xu Tianchuan to follow him into the back room with his eyes.
Xu Tianchuan also gave Jiao San and Xing Chang beside him a look and motioned them to wait outside, and then followed the guy into the inner room.
After entering the back room, the guy in the store was mysterious, and lowered his voice very low, and said, "Master, do you know our Changsha Gang in Changsha City?" ”
Xu Tianchuan nodded: "I know a little." ”
"Now that I know, I don't need to explain this to you any more."
The guy in the store continued to lower his voice and said: "About two years ago, the nine gates of the Changsha Gang gathered together and visited an extremely dangerous tomb, but for some reason, I don't know who spread this matter, it is said that this tomb is full of all kinds of artifacts, although the Changsha Gang has touched a lot of artifacts from this murderous tomb, but they have also ended up with their own injuries, and they are still lame and blind." ”
Two years ago, this coincided with the timing of that photo.
In fact, Xu Tianchuan had already thought in his heart that if the ancient tomb of the Zhensoul Clan was really in the Changsha area, it must have something to do with the Changsha Gang.
But in order to be more sure, Xu Tianchuan pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What does this you said have to do with the words on the bronze cup?" ”
"It's a big deal!"
The guy in the store immediately said with a serious expression: "Not only was the matter of the joint tomb visit of the Changsha Gang Jiumen two years ago been reported, but many of the artifacts they touched from the murderous tomb did not know why they fell into the antique market, and every artifact touched from the murderous tomb basically carried the strange text on the bronze cup, although no one understands what kind of text this is, and they can't understand what is written, but it can be determined that this is an exclusive text that was specially exchanged between noble tribes in ancient times, It is a symbol and representative of the powerful. ”
"And this Warring States Bronze Jue Cup is the artifact that the Changsha Gang Nine Gates united and touched from that murderous tomb, so it has this strange text on it."
It may be that on the one hand, in order to make Xu Tianchuan more convinced, the guy in the store added with a serious expression after he finished speaking: "Master, what I said is true, there is absolutely no story, I can swear to God, you can also go and inquire, almost the entire Changsha City Circle knows about this, the head of the Changsha Gang, the six-fingered king of Hades, is missing an ear, and there is a scar on his face, which is left in the murderous tomb, and the eighth master of the nine gates, has a broken right leg, don't look at him walking well now, In fact, it was a prosthetic leg that was installed later! ”
Xu Tianchuan nodded, indeed believing the words of the guy in the store.
However, I believe that it was the joint tomb visit of the Changsha Gang Jiumen two years ago, not the bronze cup.
Because some of the artifacts that the Changsha Gang Jiumen found out of the ancient tombs of the Zhensoul clan were revealed to the antique market, and most of them were engraved with immortal inscriptions.
Therefore, the immortal text has become a kind of identity symbolic label, which is used by counterfeiters to engrave on various fakes to pass off as the artifacts in the ancient tombs of the Soul Suppression Clan.
As for why the Changsha Gang Jiumen jointly visited the tomb two years ago, it was rumored that some of the artifacts had even fallen into the cultural toy market, it must have been a black encounter.
This kind of uneven distribution of spoils and infighting is nothing new in the tomb robber team, no matter how strong the sense of teamwork is, a thief is a thief, in the face of huge interests, even brothers, father and son can kill for money.
This is also why two years ago, a photo appeared in Luoyang City, thousands of miles away, which must be black and black for shipment.
"Master, you should believe it this time, right? I don't want much from you for these three thousand oceans, and I can guarantee that in less than two years, the price of this thing will at least double! ”
The guy in the store looked at Xu Tianchuan again and said with an urgent deal.
Xu Tianchuan nodded, and almost knew what he wanted to ask.
However, Xu Tianchuan finally asked one more question: "Do you know where this ancient tomb jointly excavated by the Changsha Gang Jiumen is, and what is the origin of the owner of the ancient tomb?" ”
The guy in the store immediately shook his head like a rattle and said, "Master, I don't know this!" Don't say it's me, except for the nine gates of the Changsha Gang, I'm afraid no one knows where the location of this murderous tomb is and who the owner of the tomb is, but although I don't know who the owner of the tomb is, his identity is absolutely prominent, at least he is a royal noble, a prince-level figure. ”
Xu Tianchuan nodded, this was originally a casual question, and he didn't expect to ask anything.
"Wrap things up."
Xu Tianchuan said lightly.
"Okay, sir, wait a minute!"
The guy in the store immediately walked out of the back room, took out a delicate sandalwood box from the counter, carefully packed the Warring States Bronze Jue Cup, and then handed it over to Xu Tianchuan.
Xu Tianchuan handed the guy a silver ticket with a face value of three thousand oceans, which is the silver ticket of Hengtong Bank, which can be exchanged anywhere in the country.
Did you really spend 3,000 oceans to buy a fake that can't be faked anymore?
Jiao San and Xing Chang, including Shui Zhu'er, all looked at Xu Tianchuan smiling and holding the sandalwood box, and their eyes widened in surprise.
