When it was nine o'clock, people came to participate in the exhibition one after another. Many of them were old friends of Xie. Besides, there were also many who came purely to participate in the exhibition. Some passers-by even came in to see it, because it was the morning of the first day. , No tickets are charged, and whoever does not want to watch when there is excitement, the museum begins to become lively.Mr. Xie also made a secret on purpose, and many treasures are still covered up, so we can't see them for the time being.

To Su Jing's surprise, some people he knew came one after another. The first ones he saw were Liu Qing and Liu Hong. There was nothing surprising about their arrival. After all, Liu Hong, Murong Qin and Mr. Xie were old acquaintances. .

"Brother Jing, why are you here too?" Liu Qing was pleasantly surprised to see Su Jing. He really didn't have much interest in these antiques and the like. In contrast, he wanted to see pets more.He was just pulled over by his grandfather, saying he wanted him to gain more knowledge and cultivate some cultural heritage.Therefore, he came a little reluctantly, and he was naturally very happy to see Su Jing, an acquaintance.

"Hehe, this is a surprise." Liu Hong said with a smile.

"Hehe, I didn't expect to see you here." Su Jing smiled.

After a while, Qian Jibing and Qian Yingning came, but Su Jing was a little surprised. How could they come?They seemed to have known that Su Jing was coming, and they were not surprised at all. Qian Yingning smiled and said, "Mr. Xie and our grandpa are good friends. Grandpa can't come, so he asked us to come."

Su Jing suddenly realized that it was so.Mr. Xie and Murong Qin are busy greeting some friends, and they don't have time to accompany Su Jing for the time being, so it's good to see some other acquaintances.

"Mr. Su?" A surprised cry suddenly sounded from behind. Su Jing turned around and saw a refined old man with a freckled girl. They all looked at themselves with surprise on their faces.

"Old Tao!" Su Jing said in surprise, this old Tao is a master sculptor who specializes in bamboo carving and is also proficient in repairing broken wooden antiques.Once became acquainted with Su Jing because of a mandarin duck holding a bamboo, and helped Su Jing restore the Hainan Huanghuali sofa, and Su Jing gave him some bamboos from the time and space of "Emperor Qin".After that farewell, there was very little contact afterwards. I didn't expect to meet here. I really don't meet each other in life.

"Haha, long time no see." Tao Lao said with a smile.

"Yeah, long time no see." Su Jing smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Tao has made a breakthrough in sculpture recently, and won several sculpture awards."

"Thank you for the bamboo you gave me, otherwise my carvings would not be so vivid." Tao Lao also said the purpose of his visit. It turned out that he brought a bamboo carving here. It is also to show a new work. It can be said that Mr. Tao has ushered in the second spring of his career. Recently, he has repeatedly made breakthroughs and carved very creative and valuable bamboo carving works.

More and more people came, and after a while, the person Su Jing wanted to see when he came here——Cai Jing, finally came.Originally, he was already considered a past star, and few people would recognize him on the street. Even if they recognized him, they might not ask for his autograph, but now that he appeared, it caused a commotion.This is all because of the popularity of Spider-Man. In the past two days, he has become popular on the Internet because of his relationship with Spider-Man.

Cai Jing drives a red sports car, wears a casual suit and sunglasses, and has damp hair standing up. He looks very young, but the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes give him away.But he didn't realize it at all. With a confident smile on his face, he walked in with brisk steps.Following behind him is a middle-aged man who can be regarded as trendy, who seems to be his manager.

"Isn't that Cai Jing? Why is he here?"

"It wasn't because he didn't understand culture and history that he made a big oolong that insulted Chinese history and became a joke in the entertainment industry. People scold him, but these days he seems to be on fire again, so more people scold him again, he probably wants to improve his image, and often goes to famous libraries, the Forbidden City Museum, historical sites and so on.”

"I see, but does he really know Spider-Man?"

"It should be, but he refuses to reveal Spider-Man's true identity."

Su Jing looked at Cai Jing from a distance, kept his expression calm, and just asked indifferently: "Does Mr. Xie know this Cai Jing? Why did he invite him?"

Qian Jibing said: "I don't think I know him. He said he was invited, but in fact he just wanted to come. Mr. Xie just happened to have a museum opening, and he happened to be nearby. I guess he chose here based on the principle of proximity. Thank you. It’s not easy for the boss to drive him away, right? Besides, although he is a bit outdated, he still has a bit of star effect, and he should be able to help make the place famous.”

Su Jing nodded, if Mr. Xie knew Cai Jing, he might as well talk to Mr. Xie through Mr. Xie. After all, if Mr. Xie was his friend, he should save face a little to avoid any unpleasantness.However, since Mr. Xie doesn't know him, there is no need to be too polite.

Chapter 742 Showing Treasures

"Thank you for coming. Now let me introduce some special treasures to you. If you are interested, you can listen to them. If you are not interested, you can freely look around." Mr. Xie proudly introduced several treasures. Through cultural relics programs, the enunciation is clear and the rhythm is gentle, and the voice is very comfortable to listen to.

Among the treasures here, there are bronze tripods, porcelain vases, bronze statues, jade Guanyin, bronze mirrors... everything, full of ancient atmosphere, dazzling.

Mr. Xie mainly introduced the treasures that were covered with cloth at the beginning. One of them is a Qing Qianlong pastel heart-shaped vase. A few 10 yuan can be said to have picked up a big leak, and this is also the one he is most proud of in the history of picking up leaks.

In addition, there is another Baoteng waist knife sent by someone else. The golden peach skin sheath made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty No. 17 Baoteng waist knife. The whole knife is slender and S-shaped. The bottom of the handle is closed in a spiral shape, and a six-petal flower is carved in the center. There is a hole drilled in the center of the flower, and a yellow silk ribbon with beads and tassels is worn.The base of the knife is gold-plated and engraved. There are gold, silver, and copper wire inlaid flower decorations and cloud dragon patterns near the base of the knife. There is also a gold and silver wire decorative frame engraved with the poetic name of this knife—"Bao Teng" and the royal family name of this knife. The imperial serial number - "Tianzi NO.17", and the same position on the other side is the four-character inscription "Qianlong Year System".The scabbard is made of wood, covered with woven peach skin decoration, and gold-plated carved loops are worn on yellow lanyards.The material is precious, the workmanship is exquisite, the meaning is profound, and the artistic value and historical value are equal, representing the highest level of imperial palace in the "Kang and Qian Dynasty".

After a while, Mr. Xie came to a glass box covered by a black cloth. Before removing the black cloth, he looked in the direction of Mr. Tao and introduced: "The creator of this treasure is on the spot. The modern sculpture artist Mr. Tao Qin Zhu Tao, thank Mr. Tao for bringing such a treasure to my collection."

Everyone turned their heads to look at Tao Lao, and applauded one after another, Tao Lao smiled modestly at everyone.Then, Xie Laocai lifted the black cloth, revealing the things inside the glass box.Everyone looked at it, and then they were surprised. At first glance, it turned out to be a miniature version of the waterfall. The cliffs, the river flowing down, the waves rushing under the waterfall, the strange rocks and bushes on both sides... everything is so lifelike. .After a closer look, I found that this was just the inside of a piece of bamboo, with bamboo joints on both sides.

"My God, it's so vivid."

"A piece of bamboo can be carved so beautifully, it's amazing."

"Old Tao's carving skills are getting more and more exquisite."

Everyone was amazed, Su Jing, Liu Qing, Liu Hong, Qian Yingning, Qian Jibing and others were also amazed, and that Cai Jing couldn't help applauding.Tao Qinzhu was praised by everyone, but he only showed a faint smile, appearing very calm and well-educated.

Su Jing already knew that Tao Qin's bamboo carving was very good, but he didn't expect it to be so good. This time it was an eye-opener.Of course, he also saw that this section of bamboo came from the time and space of Emperor Qin.

Mr. Xie continued to introduce, and also introduced a snuff bottle sent by Mr. Qian. A handsome young man with a box in his arms stood up and said, "Mr. Xie, I only found out about the opening of your museum very late, and I failed to deliver the collection in time. I don't know much about cultural relics. This is my first visit to the antique street." I bought it when I bought it, and I ask Mr. Xie to help me palm my eyes."

"Open it quickly and have a look." Mr. Xie was very interested.

"Please take a look." When the handsome young man opened the box, he glanced at Qian Yingning consciously or unconsciously, with a smile on his face.However, Qian Yingning didn't notice it, and his expression was normal.

Su Jing noticed this, but didn't pay attention to it, probably that handsome young man knew Qian Yingning.It's just that the handsome young man looks familiar, as if he's seen it somewhere.On the other hand, Liu Qing curled his lips, and then looked at Qian Yingning twice more, unable to conceal his admiration.

The handsome young man opened the box, and inside was a stone carving of a Buddha statue. The back of the Buddha statue looked like a stone slab. To be honest, the carving and shape looked very ordinary.

"Tch, I thought it was some kind of treasure, but I didn't expect it to be just a stone carving. It looks like it was carved by ordinary people casually. Fortunately, he has the nerve to take it out." Liu Qing muttered disdainfully, with a kind of self-confidence on his face, making him Su Jing was a little speechless, have you ever known about antiques, and you still speak very knowledgeable.

Mr. Xie put on his gloves, picked up the stone carving carefully, observed it carefully, and said with a smile, "Little friend, how much did you spend to buy this stone carving?"

"Three thousand." The handsome young man said.

Mr. Xie did not directly tell the truth, but commented in detail: "I think everyone knows that the Buddha statues in our stone temples are generally plump and round, with full faces, many buns on their heads, and small conch hair. , and this is a towering bun, what's going on?"

"In fact, it's like this. Buddhism was introduced to my country at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it reached its prosperity during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. After it was first introduced to China, according to the image of us Chinese, the statues are full of robes and belts, wide robes and sleeves, cassocks Shoulder-through style. Moreover, because the carving technique was not yet mature at that time, it did not appear as a separate round sculpture, but in front of the backlight, in the form of a high relief, carving the Buddha and the backlight together..."

"Comprehensive judgment, this is a stone Buddha statue from the Southern Dynasties. It is a good collection. My friend bought it for 3000 yuan, which is a big mistake."

The handsome young man chuckled: "Thank you for your guidance. It seems that my vision and luck are not bad. However, Mr. Xie is still knowledgeable. This collection should be placed here with Mr. Xie."

"Hehe, then thank you little friend. You can keep it here for safekeeping and exhibition. You can take it back whenever you want." Xie Lao laughed and asked people to put the stone carvings in the booth.

The handsome young man looked at Qian Yingning again, with a slightly smug expression, but Qian Yingning still didn't seem to see him, which made his expression a little depressed.Liu Qing's expression was even more displeased. He never thought that the stone sculpture, which looked so ugly, was actually an antique.He always felt that the broken thing must be fake, who would have nothing to do with collecting such an ugly Buddha statue?However, this was identified by Mr. Xie, and he dared not refute it.

Liu Qing suddenly ran out, got into the car, and came back with a small box in his arms. He obviously prepared it early in the morning, but he didn't bring it in just now. He went to Mr. Xie and said, "Mr. Xie, I also spent some money to buy a few boxes a while ago. Something, how about you help me palm the eye too?"

743 Chapter Struggle

Seeing that Liu Qing also asked Xie Lao Zhangyan, the others were watching the show with great interest, but Liu Hong was slightly taken aback, even he didn't know that Liu Qing had prepared something.He was a little happy that Liu Qing was so hardworking, but at the same time he couldn't help becoming nervous, because this kid didn't show him first, God knows what he would show, don't take out a fake, give it to him Shame on you.

Mr. Xie glanced at Liu Hong with a smile, and then said to Liu Qing, "Let me see."

Liu Qing opened the box confidently, revealing four jade items inside, three of which were a bit strange in shape, but the patterns and craftsmanship were not bad, and the last one was a three-legged jade toad.On each piece, there is a very bright and beautiful color, which seems to be a bit old.

The eyes of many people present were brightened, and Liu Hong and Tao Qinzhu also took a closer look.Generally, antiques made of jade are very popular, because good jade itself is valuable. If you add carving and history, the value is generally very high. Compared with the Buddha statue that the handsome young man took out before, these four pieces The potential of jade is obviously greater.

Mr. Xie picked up one of them, looked at it, and asked, "Xiaoqing, do you know what this is?" He and Liu Hong are old friends, and have met Liu Qing several times, so he was naturally kind to Liu Qing a bit.

Liu Qing chuckled and said, "Of course I know, it's called Yuwei."

Old Xie asked, "Then do you know what dynasty it appeared in?"

Liu Qing replied: "Shang Dynasty, right?"

Mr. Xie chuckled: "It seems that you have done some homework. The jade cymbals did appear in the Shang Dynasty first, but the largest in our collection is no more than [-] centimeters, and your three jade cymbals, the smaller ones It is at least twelve centimeters by visual inspection, and the larger one is seventeen or eighteen centimeters."

"Also, in our collection, most of the jade cymbals are Hetian jade, and they are all very fine Hetian jade, which is commonly called Jixinpei. Jade cymbals were used as practical objects in the Shang Dynasty at the beginning, so they were very well done. Thick is used to draw bows and shoot arrows. From the Han Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it became a decorative object with less practical functions, but the carving became more and more exquisite. This is also the reason why the market price of jade is very high. And your three pieces , the jade quality, thickness, and carving work are all inconsistent."

"From the point of view of shape, all jade gongs have holes punched on one side and holes on the other side, and there must be a gap between the slope and the hollowed-out ornaments carved on both sides. The most basic way to identify jade 韘 from the hole. And your three jade 韘 are not suitable. In addition, you don’t think it’s very bright and beautiful, but it’s nothing to use bright color on the qin. Good word, this bright color means the coloring of chemical pigments, a characteristic characteristic of forgery."

"Look at this three-legged jade toad again, this bangs playing golden toad. Legend has it that it began in the Song Dynasty and prevailed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. But the small hooked patterns carved on the abdomen are typical hooked patterns from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the early Warring States period. It is equivalent to a Han Dynasty man wearing a tie, do you think it is possible?"

Speaking of this, even if Liu Qing didn't understand it, he understood that these four pieces of jade were all fake, and they seemed ridiculously fake. Fortunately, he took it seriously and spent more than 20 yuan.Liu Qing's face turned red, wishing he could dig a hole and get in.This is simply a standard pretending to be a fool.

On the other hand, Liu Hong wished to slap Liu Qing to death with one palm. Seeing his confident appearance, he thought he had really studied it well. Unexpectedly, he took out such a few flawed jade articles. If you know how to do it, you won't be fooled by these few pieces of jade.

The handsome young man smiled and said, "How much did these four pieces of jade cost?"

Liu Qing smiled awkwardly and said, "Not much, not much, just a few thousand yuan."

The handsome young man smiled without saying a word. Few people in the room believed that such four jade antiques could be sold as genuine ones. How could they be sold for only a few thousand yuan?

Mr. Xie comforted: "I also misread when I was young, and even now there are still times when I can't judge, so I must be careful, patient, and have enough professional knowledge. If you can't make up your mind, then don't act casually. Otherwise, it is easy to be deceived."

Liu Qing humbly nodded and said yes, being looked at by everyone, he couldn't hold back his old face, glanced at Su Jing, suddenly changed the subject and said: "I'm just throwing bricks, didn't Brother Jing also bring treasures, look at Jing Brother."

Su Jing smiled, why couldn't he see that Liu Qing was deliberately pushing himself out, there seemed to be a bit of gunpowder between Liu Qing and that handsome young man, they all seemed to have taken a fancy to Qian Yingning, this is not surprising Well, for a beautiful woman like Qian Yingning, it's normal for many people to like her. When she was in college, the whole school didn't know how many people had a crush on her.Even my roommate, Lin Hao, had a crush on her for a while, and even sent her a love letter, but the love letter fell into the sea without any response. Later, he felt that there was no chance, so he gave up.

Su Jing didn't bother to care about the jealousy between Liu Qing and that handsome young man, but he had brought treasures to show off anyway, Liu Qing was embarrassing enough now, so he didn't say anything.

Old Xie smiled and said, "A Jing, show your treasure, we want to see it too."

Su Jing nodded and said, "Let me show it."

Most of the people present knew Su Jing. Apart from Mr. Xie, Murong Qin, Qian Jibing, Qian Yingning, Tao Qinzhu, Liu Hong and others were also looking forward to it.That Cai Jing whispered a few words to the manager next to him, showing a sudden expression, and then took another look at Su Jing.

Seeing that everyone's attention was diverted, Liu Qing heaved a long sigh of relief, and hid the four pieces of jade in his pocket.Liu Hong noticed this detail, and gave him a slight look, as if saying that he would turn around and settle accounts with him.If Liu Qing hadn't thought himself smart, he would have shown Liu Hong first, and he wouldn't have been ashamed on the spot like this.

"That's Su Jing who has gotten very close to Miss Qian recently." A person next to the handsome young man whispered.

"I know, I knew him a long time ago, but I haven't seen him for a long time. It's been three days since we left, so I should see him with admiration." The handsome young man smiled faintly.

Under the eyes of everyone, Su Jing walked to the side of the three booths side by side. The leftmost booth was covered with a big black cloth and was as tall as a person. It seemed that this treasure was huge.Su Jing grabbed the black cloth and lifted it off, revealing the contents inside.

Seeing the exposed things, the audience was stunned for a moment, and then there was a burst of exclamation. Xie Lao and the other experts suddenly became short of breath, and Tao Qinzhu suddenly squeezed forward, extremely excited.

Chapter 744 Uncanny Craftsmanship

"My God, is this a stone sculpture?"

"It's too realistic, you can even see the pores."

"The texture and folds of the clothes are really the same."

"And the eyes, the eyes, seem to be looking at us."

Everyone was stunned. The first exhibit Su Jing showed was a stone sculpture of a woman.She has a delicate and beautiful face, long hair fluttering, and a tall figure, about 1.8 meters high.Wearing a close-fitting soft armor with some weird patterns hollowed out on it, the unique design on the chest reveals a deep cleavage, and the lower body is even more irritating. She is wearing shorts, revealing her snow-white and plump thighs. with a dagger...

This stone carving is so realistic, every pore, every strand of hair, every line on the clothes is so real, it is unbelievable.Even many men present couldn't help but feel their hearts flutter. This stone carving is so realistic and beautiful, like a real big beauty standing in front of them, they can't help but feel their hearts throbbing and want to take it for themselves.

The bamboo carving that Tao Qinzhu showed before is very good, but compared with this stone carving, it is insignificant.No wonder Tao Qinzhu was so excited. For a sculpture artist, the shock brought by this stone carving was too great. Tao Qinzhu even took out a magnifying glass to look closely for a while, and said excitedly: "My God, how is this possible? It’s uncanny workmanship! Mr. Su, which master is this stone carving from?”

Not only Tao Qinzhu wanted to know, but everyone present knew that it was the first time for everyone to see such a lifelike stone carving.In the past, they were also amazed by many stone carvings, lamenting that those were superb craftsmanship, but compared with the stone carving in front of them, those were nothing.This stone carving simply raised the stone carving technique to an unprecedented height.

Although, those stone sculptures sold at high prices on the market are often not vivid and lifelike, but some very abstract and very commemorative, such as Alberto Giacometti's "big flat head" and "slender head". ", such as Jeff Koons' "Balloon Dog (Orange)".Although from the eyes of ordinary people, these works are too weird to be appreciated at all. If they are not famous, let alone spending money to buy them, they will not be given away by others, but it is undeniable that they are really popular among professionals. People are welcome, and there are many people who are willing to spend a lot of money for them.However, those ordinary sculptures that are more realistic based on real people and real objects can hardly be sold for a few dollars. Many people can carve this kind of sculpture.

But when a work is brought to a whole new level of lifelikeness, the meaning is different.The stone sculpture in front of me can be said to be a brand-new realm of carving skills in the world, an unbelievable realm, so everyone wants to know which master's work, and when did such a great figure emerge.

Su Jing pretended to be profound and said: "Sorry, that master doesn't want to reveal his real name."

Tao Qinzhu asked: "Why? With such superb carving techniques, he should have been very famous long ago, right? Let me think about it, could it be Jiang Zixia, a master stone carver? No, Jiang Zixia's carving lines are perfect, but the details can't reach this level. Could it be..."

Tao Qinzhu guessed several people in a row, but was denied by himself.No matter how I think about it, I can't find anyone who can reach such a state. This stone sculpture should only exist in the sky.

Liu Qing suddenly pointed at the handsome young man, laughed and said, "See, this is the real treasure, yours is just a gadget."

The handsome young man is a little speechless, can he compare like this?This is so bullying, okay?Besides, this baby is not yours at all, what the hell are you doing?However, I was really afraid that Liu Qing would be messing around, so I wanted to compare his Buddha sculpture with the stone sculpture in front of me, so I ignored Liu Qing.

A balding middle-aged man said: "Mr. Su, I will offer one hundred thousand for this stone carving or not."

Another rough middle-aged man said: "I am willing to pay 15."

A young man said: "Are you kidding me? I'll offer 100 million."

Several people started to scramble for it, and the price rose to more than 300 million in a few clicks. The faces of the scramblers were red, and it seemed that they were about to fight, as if they were robbing a real beauty.

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a big belly raised his hand and said, "I'll offer 1000 million."

Suddenly, the few people who had been arguing before stopped, stunned by the man's bid.However, at this time, a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman said: "I will pay 500 million." This woman seems to have a different identity. Before Su Jing saw Cai Jing making friends with her, she even wanted to flatter her.

The middle-aged man with a big belly glanced at the middle-aged woman and said, "I'll pay 800 million."

The few people who made the price at the beginning were completely wilted. Only then did they realize how ridiculous their price was. Now that the gods are fighting, they have no part to speak.Seeing that the potbellied middle-aged man and the graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman wanted to continue competing, Su Jing stopped him and said, "This is not an auction house, please don't grab it. This stone carving is not for sale for the time being. I put it here Put it on for a while. If we decide to sell it at that time, our Time-Space Auction House will notify you first, and if you want to buy it, please pay attention to the news of the Time-Space Auction House.”

The middle-aged man with a big belly and the middle-aged woman who is graceful and luxurious both have some regrets. They are very clear that they have not been able to buy it now. After a period of time, it will be hyped up and more people will know it. Then it will be difficult to buy again. up.In fact, strictly speaking, this stone carving is not easy to estimate at all, because it has never appeared before.However, it can be expected that many rich people like it and are willing to collect it, so it is not surprising that the price exceeds 2000 million, and it may even be much higher.

Xie Lao sighed: "Ah Jing, although I have been looking forward to your treasure for a long time and have made some psychological preparations, I was still surprised by you. This stone carving is too shocking, but it is a pity that I don't know the creator."

Su Jing smiled and said: "He doesn't like to be famous, and he doesn't want to be disturbed, so I can't say. But maybe that master will change his mind in the future and is willing to reveal his real name, and he will tell everyone at that time."

Tao Qinzhu didn't give up and asked: "I should know him, can you introduce me privately?"

Su Jing waved his hand and said, "It's really not possible."

Liu Hong and Qian Jibing couldn't help asking, guessing who they were.

However, how could they guess right? Su Jing really couldn't say.After all, the creator is not a person from Earth, or even a human being, but Queen Medusa from the law of the devil, and it is not by exquisite carving, but by turning people into stones.If you knew the truth, would you still worship and marvel so much?

Su Jing was really annoyed by the question, so she changed the subject and said, "Okay, everyone, please take a look at my second exhibit."

Chapter 745 Strange goods can live

"Okay, everyone, please take a look at my second exhibit." Su Jing successfully diverted everyone's attention with a word. Everyone thought that the first exhibit was so amazing, what about the second one?

Su Jing didn't hold back this time, and directly opened the black cloth on the top, revealing a transparent glass jar underneath. Inside the glass jar was a ball of tree roots.Everyone was stunned for a moment, and when they took a closer look, they couldn't help being dumbfounded. There was a relatively large tree root in the messy mass of tree roots, and the shape of the tree root turned out to be an unborn fetus, which was curled up inside. , making the outer spherical root look like a placenta.What's even more amazing is that the unopened eyes, nose, ears, hands, and feet of this fetus are all so distinct and lifelike.

"My God, this carving is so lifelike."

"Compared to the stone carving just now, it is simply the same."

"It looks so cute, it makes people want to hug."
