Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

Thinking about it carefully, Liulichang has not visited for three or four years. Li Mo had found a lot of good things here, if the teacher hadn't been tricked here once, he wouldn't have thought of taking the time to hang out at Liulichang again.

The car parked in the garage of a nearby commercial complex, and then walked towards Liulichang with a fashionable messenger bag on his back. Don't forget to buy a Roujiamo and a bottle of water on the roadside.

"Cai Cai, what are you standing here looking at?" Li Mo came to meet up with Cai Cai at the place that he had made an appointment with, seeing him looking towards the roast duck restaurant, he couldn't help laughing, "Brother will treat you to Kyoto roast duck at noon."

Cai Cai turned her head to look, looked up and down and said: "If you don't listen to the voice, it's really hard to find you in the crowd."

Li Mo touched his face and said, "It's just a simple make-up, and it feels a bit effective."

"Brother Hero, I don't want to eat roast duck, but when I saw the roast duck restaurant, I remembered something. I remember that when we first met and went to the antique market together, you invited me to eat roast duck, and you bought it for me before leaving at night. I bought a lot of delicious food. More than ten years have passed in a flash, without realizing it."

"You were a child at that time, let's go, don't be sad that time is gone forever."

Only then did Cai Cai let out an oh, and followed Li Mo towards the main road of Liulichang. The antique festival has been going on for a few days, and the flow of people is not small. On the contrary, as the activity is getting more and more fermented, the organizer even specially opened up a place for snack stalls.

In short, food is always indispensable for fun.

"Brother Hero, with so many people, how do you find them?"

Cai Cai was a little dumbfounded. Even if it was a crowded scene, it would take a lot of effort to walk around.

"Call me brother, don't reveal your secrets to alert others." Li Mo wiped his mouth with a facial tissue, looked at it and said, "Generally, the stalls that have been planned to set people up will not be placed in conspicuous places on the main road. , will nest in the corners and places where it is easy to get out and move quickly. For such places, we should pay more attention to them."

"Brother, I'll do what you say, as long as I catch those guys, I'll beat them up first."

"Be safe and don't be impatient, won't you startle the snake if you make a move?"

Li Mo told her a few words, and followed the flow of people into the main road. Street stalls are the same no matter where they are. There is a cotton carpet on the floor, on which there are various items for sale, and the boss sits on the ponytail or stool he carries and waits leisurely for the fish to take the bait.

There are many people shopping, and relatively many people choose, but most of the attractions are the stalls selling all kinds of jewelry, followed by various sculptures and jade. As for whether tourists can distinguish the true from the false Depends on your level of ability.

"Brother, why don't you take a good look at it?"

"There are no good things. These stall owners are caught one by one and slaughtered one by one. After the slaughter, they turn their faces and deny people." Li Mo walked all the way, passed more than 20 stalls, and there was not even a decent thing. A fool's play.

After following the flow of people for more than ten meters, Li Mo finally stopped in front of a street stall. This stall is at the junction of two avenues, and the booth area is quite large. The items on display include bronze wares, root carvings, and jade stones, which are large in size and look a little threatening.

"Brother, didn't you say that buying and selling of bronze wares is prohibited?"

Cai Cai said in a low voice, Li Mo shrugged his shoulders: "So these are all modern handicrafts, otherwise if they are found by the police, they can only go in, eh..."

The bronze wares on the booth include tripods, jue, basins, swords, and daggers. There are quite a lot of types. At this time, Li Mo's eyes fell on a bronze sword, and the colorful rays of light in his eyes bloomed, and a burst of colorful energy came from above. He thought they were all modern handicrafts, but he didn't expect that there was a bronze ware from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period hidden in it, and judging from the brilliance of the colorful rays of light, the owner of the bronze sword should be someone with a history.

"Brother, what do you want to see?"

Seeing that he didn't leave, Cai Cai immediately understood that there should be a baby on this stall, otherwise Li Mo's personality would not waste time.

"Boss, where do these stones come from?"

Li Mo showed a little interest in the various stones placed on the ground.

"Brother, what you said is wrong. These are not stones, but jade. Look at these pieces, they are all Xinjiang jade, with white material and green material, and the light transmission is very good when the light shines , high-quality. These pieces are all rough jadeite, old pit species brought back from Myanmar."

The booth was a man, fatter, in his forties, with black-framed eyes, he looked clumsy, but he was a very shrewd person when he spoke.

"Brother, by the way you look, you must have done some research on jade. Naturally, you know what I'm talking about is true or false. You choose carefully first, and the price is easy to negotiate. There is no righteousness in buying and selling, even if there is no chance of cooperation today, we can also To make friends."

Li Mo smiled, and picked up a stone the size of an adult's fist from the stall. The skin looked taupe and had an irregular oval shape. Not to mention that it really came out of the old pit, it's just that it's small in size, and there is a ball of waxy ice seed yellow jade inside, so it's no problem to sell it to a jewelry company for hundreds of thousands. If it was bigger, and a pair of waxy ice-species yellow jadeite bracelets could be sold, the price might directly soar two or three times.

Li Mo put down the rough jadeite, and picked up other jadeites for a closer look.

"Boss, how much is this white material?"

"Brother, you really have a vision, you can just give 8,000, the price I offer is the cheapest among the peers."

"Sell it for 800?"

Li Mo didn't want to hear his ramblings, so he cut him to the end.

"You put it down, I don't do your business."

The fat boss is on fire, are you bargaining? You are obviously here to make trouble and waste my time.

"Boss, peace makes money." Li Mo's expression remained the same, and instead of leaving, he picked up the rough yellow jadeite, "How much is this stone?"

"Don't talk nonsense, this is an authentic rough jadeite from the bottom of an old Burmese pit. According to the rules, such rough stones are worth a lot of money."

The fat boss's eyeballs began to move, as if thinking of something.

"Boss, don't fool me, can you? I still know a little bit about the market. Even if this is a rough emerald from the old pit, but it's a full bet, and the size is so small, you can still offer a sky-high price. You directly To tell you the real price, if it is suitable, I will take it back and polish it, and see if I can have good luck."

Li Mo's eyes were cautious.

"Eight thousand, you take it away, no counter-offering." The fat boss said firmly, "If this rough emerald really turns green, you will earn to death, and I will lose to death, so my asking price of 8,000 yuan is not high. "

Li Mo didn't directly refuse, but held the rough emerald stone in front of Cai Cai and asked, "Little sister, can you take a bet on this stone for eight thousand?"

"It's the rough emerald stone from Laokeng, Myanmar, not a stone." The fat boss emphasized again.

How can Cai Cai know how much this stone is worth, but based on her experience, this stone has content, but the procedure of bargaining cannot be missed.

"Brother, what is there to buy with a rock the size of a fist? What do you spend that money on? It's just a waste of time."

The fat boss was furious, but there were many tourists coming and going around him, and they all looked at him.

"Let's go, you go immediately, I won't do this business."

"Boss, my younger sister is not sensible. You have a lot of adults, and the prime minister can hold a boat. I really want this rough stone, but eight thousand is definitely high, and it can be cheaper."

The fat boss didn't agree: "If you want to buy it, you can take the money, and the price can't be negotiated."

Li Mo hesitated for a while before saying: "Then you can give me a favor, otherwise I'm not balanced."

When the fat boss heard something interesting, he held back his excited little heart, and said in a slightly calmer tone: "All the good things on my stall are good, and it's not suitable to give any one."

Li Mo said with a little contempt: "Boss, don't tell me that these bronze wares are also genuine. If the police come to your door, don't think about it again in your life."

When it's time to fight, you still have to fight, this is like bargaining.

The fat boss snorted softly, and pointed to the bronze wares: "Which one do you fancy, take it away yourself."

"Little sister, pay."

Li Mo gave an order, and then squatted down to pick and choose from the bronze wares.

"Another 8,000 yuan was fooled." With a face full of reluctance, Cai Cai dragged out her phone. This made the fat boss very anxious. If this business is successful, he will make a small profit. A bright smile suddenly appeared on his face: "I wish you good luck, big brother, and you will get rich overnight with the jadeite."

Cai Cai paid the money anyway, wrapped the rough jadeite in paper and put it in the bag.

"Brother, have you chosen yet?"

"I paid all the money, why are you in a hurry."

"Hey, I have other clients to choose."

Li Mo raised his head and glanced at him angrily, picked up the bronze sword and said: "What's the rush, you really don't recognize money but people, just this bronze, little sister, let's go, so as not to stand here and be an eyesore .”

"Brother, you two go slowly."

Li Mo walked to the side with the bronze vessel in hand, and carefully appraised it in a place with a little less traffic.

"Brother, which dynasty's bronze ware is this authentic?"

A few minutes later, Li Mo said, "Have you ever heard of the Goujian sword of King Yue? According to historical records, King Goujian of Yue had several self-made swords. The most famous one is the one displayed in the Edi Museum."

"Ah, this bronze sword was actually used by Yue Wang Goujian." Cai Cai said a little surprised.

"It's not the sword of Goujian, the king of Yue, but his son's sword. Goujian's son is called Yu Yu. You can see that there are eight big characters on the handle of this sword, which means 'The King of Yue, the King of Yue, the purpose of Yuyu'. These are eight double hooks. Seal characters."

"If you take a closer look at the rust on the sword in the sun, the rust is all recrystallized, and it won't last for two thousand years. The copper alloy composition has been oxidized for two thousand years before the bronze sword appears. It is extremely difficult to make such a natural compatibility of red and green rust. Look at the forging process of this bronze sword, the double-hook seal script with very fine patterns, and turquoise inlaid on it. This handicraft skill has been lost. Also, the handle of this sword has concentric circles, so it can basically be identified that this Yuewang sword was in the late Spring and Autumn Period, because in the Warring States period, the concentric circles of the handle will have words."

Cai Cai nodded while listening, as if she had a lot of experience.

"Brother, how much is this King Yue sword worth?"

"Its historical and cultural value has far exceeded the market value. I plan to put this Yuewang sword in the museum for exhibition, and let the museums in Edi see that my collection is no worse than theirs."

A smile finally appeared on Li Mo's face: "Finally, today is not in vain, I'll buy a long box to store it in, it's not safe to just hold it in my hand, there are so many people, if you are not careful, you will hurt others.

He walked into a store and walked out within a few minutes holding a rectangular box.

"Brother, what about the rock in my bag?"

"It is indeed the rough jadeite from Laokeng from Myanmar. Whether there is any goods in it still needs to be polished with a machine. If there are some, it will be better, and we will make a lot of money. It doesn't matter if you don't have it. You can't buy a piece of it for 8,000 yuan. The sword of the King of Yue from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period." Li Mo patted the bag she was carrying and said with a smile, "I feel like there is jade in it."

Cai Cai looked around and said, "I remember Mr. Niu Yingjun Niu owns a jewelry store here. He might have a small cutting machine in his store. Why don't we go to his store. I'll put this rough jadeite I always felt that it was not solid enough in the bag, so we went to cut it, and it was clear at a glance whether there was any emerald."

"I'll ask him."

Li Mo took out his mobile phone and called, and it was connected after three rings.

"Brother, why did you ring to find me?"

"where are you?"

"The jewelry store here at Liulichang is holding an antique festival these days. It has a lot of traffic and is very busy. I'll come over to check on the situation. If you have anything to say, just let me know."

"I'm in Liulichang right now, you send me the address of the store, and I'll go find you."

"Okay, right now, I'll hang up first."

A few seconds later, I received a positioning text message from Niu Sanpang. Li Mo carefully analyzed the directions of the southeast, northwest, and then pointed to the front: "Cai Cai, let's go straight along this road. The avenue outside Liulichang is connected, about seventy or eighty meters away."

"I just said that there is his shop nearby, let's go."

Cai Cai wanted to find out as soon as possible whether the rough jadeite in the backpack would be available, so she didn't stop all the way, and Li Mo could only follow behind in a muffled voice.

"Boss Niu, this way."

Cai Cai saw Niu Sanpang standing at the door waiting for them from a distance, and couldn't help waving her hands.

"Mr. Zhu is here too. It's been a long time." Niu Sanpang hurried up to say hello, then looked away from Li Mo after sweeping his eyes, and then turned his head to look at him uncertainly, feeling a little impressed.

Li Mo touched his brow subconsciously and said, "San Pang, seeing how uncertain you are, I have changed so much?"

"Hey, you don't even know." Niu Sanpang finally confirmed that the person standing in front of him was his good brother Li Mo, and stepped forward to give him a hug, "You also came to Liulichang to shop for treasures today. How about it? how?"

"So far, I have found two pieces, and the record is not ideal."
