Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang
Chapter 600: Inexplicable Sense of Trust
Zhou Qi felt Du Qianqian's concern, smiled lightly and said nothing more.
Du Bowen frowned. As the person who recommended Zhou Qi, he had high hopes for Zhou Qi. But the current situation undoubtedly made him lose face, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Just as Du Bowen was about to go forward to comfort Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi asked, "Excuse me, can I find a hammer here?"
Hearing this, someone in the crowd immediately reacted: "Sir, you don't want to smash this bowl, do you? Even if you lose money, it is a fine Ru kiln product from the Song Dynasty after all. If you don't want it, I can buy it for 2.1 million."
After hearing this, Liu Zhaoqing couldn't help laughing and interrupted, "How about this, my friend, I'll pay 2.5 million, and the extra 400,000 is my compensation for sympathizing with you. Don't be too impulsive."
Zhou Qi turned his head and glanced at Liu Zhaoqing, then smiled faintly and said, "Even if you give me 10 million, I won't sell it!"
Ten million? Everyone looked at each other, thinking: Can you really sell it?
Zhou Qi ignored the discussions around him and directly called the security personnel, asking them to help find a hammer. After thinking for a while, he added that if there was a saw, it should be brought as well.
The hammer is of course used to smash dishes, but what is the saw for? Is he so angry that he wants to dismantle the appraiser's table?
No one knows what Zhou Qi is up to.
After a while, the security guard came running over, panting. Although his duties prevented him from getting too close, he had been curious for a while and wanted to know what Zhou Qi was going to do.
Before handing the items to Zhou Qi, he said carefully: "Sir, these are dangerous items. If they threaten the safety of the venue, I have the right to stop you and even call the police."
Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I just want to use these tools to identify the treasures I photographed."
Using these things for identification? This sounds incredible!
People around began to whisper, and the voices became louder and louder.
Zhou Qi ignored him and turned to several senior appraisers for help: "Can you please take care of this bowl?"
Since this was within their scope of work, several appraisers nodded in agreement.
After getting the answer, Zhou Qi opened another box and took out a copper brick. He found a table, put the copper brick on it, and adjusted the position so that one end was exposed.
What happened next stunned everyone - Zhou Qi held one end of the copper brick with his foot and picked up a saw to cut it open.
Zhou Qi's actions were obvious. The noises around him became even louder. He had never seen anyone identify a treasure in this way before. He actually had to saw it open!
Du Bowen frowned, and quickly stepped forward to hold Zhou Qi, and gently advised: "Xiao Zhou, what are you doing? Let the experts identify it. If you damage it, you will have to pay a heavy price!"
Although he said it politely, Du Bowen actually felt that Zhou Qi's behavior was really disrespectful.
After all, this auction was of a high standard, and all the people who came were famous people. Zhou Qi was hammering and sawing here, like he was performing magic tricks, which was really outrageous.
"Hahaha..." Bursts of laughter came from all around.
Liu Zhaoqing laughed and thought Zhou Qi was really funny.
Shang Baochang was defrauded by spending five million to buy a white bowl. Now Zhou Qi is here, just like a handyman...
Didn't he think Shang Baochang had embarrassed himself enough?
Liu Zhaoqing even suspected that Zhou Qi was an undercover agent sent by him, but he forgot about it.
I really want to give him a big bonus to reward his outstanding performance. Thinking of this, Liu Zhaoqing couldn't help laughing again, holding his stomach and laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.
The people around couldn't help laughing when they saw Zhou Qi's expression. After all, who would spend 80,000 yuan to buy something and then plan to split it in half?
"You don't really think there is any treasure in there, do you?" Liu Zhaoqing said with a smile.
"Let me tell you, this bowl can still be used as a brick. If it is really split in two, it will be even worse than a brick. It will be worthless by then, haha..."
Liu Zhaoqing was not the only one who found it incredible. Even if the bowl was worthless, it was bought at a high price. Why would they destroy it just to find out what was inside?
"What if there really is something inside?" Zhou Qi asked back.
Hearing this, many people shook their heads. This bowl looked intact, how could there be something hidden in it?
Moreover, if it really existed, the original owner could not have been unaware of it; even if he did not know, the items that could be put on the auction table must have undergone preliminary appraisal by experts.
By doing this, Zhou Qi not only questioned the professional level of the auction house's appraisers, but also might offend them.
People around him had more complicated views of Zhou Qi, thinking that this young man might have some mental problems.
But Zhou Qi ignored those looks and started sawing directly. The squeaking sound made people feel creepy.
Du Bowen could only stand aside helplessly and said nothing more. Du Qianqian looked at Zhou Qi curiously. Although she was not sure whether Zhou Qi's words were correct, she had an inexplicable sense of trust in Zhou Qi.
Shang Zizhe whispered to Du Qianqian, "Qianqian, he is such a joke. You'd better stay away from him in the future, or you will be laughed at by others."
When Du Qianqian heard this, her face immediately darkened. Her favorable impression of Shang Zize had dropped to freezing point. She was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore and turned away.
About five minutes later, Zhou Qi finally stopped the saw in his hand, and the people around him involuntarily leaned forward, wanting to see what was going on.
Zhou Qi drew a cross on the copper brick. It was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen. It seemed to be solid.
After trying, he couldn't pull it open, so he gave up. But Zhou Qi didn't intend to give up. He threw down the saw, picked up the hammer, and hit it hard, shaking the table with every hit.
As the hammer struck, the edges of the cross began to lift, and some black fragments slowly emerged.
"Hey, this thing isn't in one piece?"
Someone noticed that the pieces did not look like copper. If they were a solid piece, nothing should fall out when struck.
Experts realized that this might be a copper box, but because it had been buried for too long, the surface had merged with the copper bricks.
Zhou Qi continued to hammer hard, and the copper brick gradually deformed, with cracks appearing at the cross.
Suddenly, the copper brick cracked and a piece fell to the ground with a dull sound. Liu Zhaoqing laughed and said sarcastically: "You are really a genius. You can break a copper brick with a sledgehammer. Today I have seen it."
But his laughter soon froze on his face when he saw Zhou Qi take out a round object from the broken part, although it was covered with many impurities and the whole picture could not be seen clearly.
Someone in the crowd shouted in surprise: "Is that an ancient coin?"
This exclamation attracted everyone's attention, and everyone gathered around, shocked by the ancient coins hidden in the copper brick.
