Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

  Chapter 598 One treasure after another

  All the people present immediately focused their attention on Li Mo. He considered it the most precious antique in this treasure cave, which is definitely a rarity.

   "Go quickly."

  Every time I go out with Li Mo, if I don’t get some shocking things back, it’s like a waste of time.

   "Call a live broadcast team over here." Li Mo ordered, and several people who had been waiting not far away hurriedly rushed over with the machine, and it would be more promising to mix with Associate Professor Li.

  Push open the door of the next room, and under the light, dozens of wooden boxes are neatly placed together, and two of them have been destroyed.

   "The first time I came in, I took out one piece from each of the two wooden boxes and appraised it. Experts and professors, we are going to feast our eyes today."

  The live camera moved forward, and Li Mo took out an ancient object wrapped in cotton cloth from one of the wooden boxes. Under the high-definition camera, he opened it layer by layer to reveal the treasures inside.

   "An old cabbage?"

   A live broadcast staff member said in amazement.

"Shut up."

  The person next to him glared at him, are you stupid, do you have a part to speak here? Can an old cabbage last for so long?

  Zhu Changping, Director Fu and Director Shi have already surrounded it. It is a cabbage, but it is not an ordinary cabbage, but an ivory cabbage that is lifelike enough to be fake.

   This carving is definitely at the level of a master.

   "Xiao Mo, let me take a look."

  Zhu Changping took over the past and appreciated it carefully, and couldn't help but admire that such ivory works can become treasures in any museum no matter where they are placed.

   "Associate Professor Li, can you identify its origin and age?"

  Curator Fu also took it and looked at it carefully. He was amazed by the carving skills.

   "Let's look at the root of the ivory cabbage, there is a very small italic character of 4 over there."

   "Where is it? I can't find it." Curator Fu rubbed his eyes and said helplessly, "I'm really old, my eyes are failing."

  Li Mo hurriedly took out a magnifying glass from his carry-on bag and said with a smile, "It's over here, do you see it?"

   "Mr. Taoyuan!" Curator Fu read out, but he was obviously not familiar with this person, "Professor Zhu, have you heard of this person?"

  Professor Zhu Changping muttered, frowning slightly: "I seem to have heard of it somewhere, but I don't have a deep impression. Xiaomo, if you know it, just say it directly, don't hold our appetite."

Li Mo smiled at this time and said: "The reason why the teacher seems to have heard of it may be from Mr. Chen Xinghai, the master of Beidiao. I was not familiar with Mr. Taoyuan at first, but I asked Mr. Chen about it. It's such a coincidence that Mr. Taoyuan, formerly known as Chen Zhiping, was a sculptor during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. He was first conscripted into the building office to serve the royal family, and then left the building office due to physical reasons. an alias."

   "So the one in front of me is Qing Dynasty ivory cabbage, which is the pinnacle work in the sculpture world. The camera gives it a few close-ups, so that people all over the world can appreciate the masterpiece left by the ancestors."

   Frying pan again in the live broadcast room.

  Shi Bin led a group of soldiers in. They brought a batch of specially customized safes, which were prepared by Li Mo in advance.

  Li Mo carefully put the clear ivory cabbage into the safe, and then took out the copper winged tiger from the second wooden box.

   "The gold, silver and copper-winged tigers of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods are all in the palm of your hand."

  Li Mo showed the Bronze Winged Tiger under the camera.

   "Antiques from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have existed for about 2,500 years."

   "This is a treasure among national treasures, a priceless treasure."

   "Awesome, too powerful, Associate Professor Li is mighty!"

   "The fairy eye is worthy of the name, anyway, I am convinced."

  Professor Zhu and the others looked at it one by one, and then put it in the safe again. Only two pieces were taken out, each of which was a treasure, and everyone present was full of expectations for the unborn antiques.

   "Associate Professor Li, many netizens are asking, how could such a national treasure be hidden among the people?"

"At that time, there was a saying called 'Hide Wealth from the People', which meant that all the real wealth was hidden among the people. Because of the civil wars at that time, the government was corrupt, and all kinds of treasures were lost to the people. In addition to tomb robbery, etc., the gold hidden among the people Antiques are also a very scary number. Everyone may have heard the story of the warlord and robber Sun Dianying, who robbed the tomb of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and there are so many rare treasures leaked out."

   After Li Mo finished speaking, he took out another ancient object from the wooden box, and peeled off the layers of cotton cloth wrapped outside to reveal a piece of porcelain.

"Hey, the shape of this porcelain is relatively rare. I've never seen it before." Professor Zhu Changping was a little surprised when he saw this porcelain at first sight. I have never seen such a shape of porcelain.

Li Mo looked at the porcelain in his hand and said: "I have seen this kind of record in an ancient book, but there is no such real sample in any major museums in China or even in foreign countries. I thought it was already It was extinct, but I didn’t expect to find one here, this porcelain is called skin jar.”

   "Skin jar?" Professor Zhu and the others looked at each other without any impression of this.

   "Associate Professor Li, tell us about the history of the skin jar." The anchor really gained knowledge. Seeing the bewildered expressions of several veteran experts, he knew that the porcelain in front of him had a good history.

"During the Liao Dynasty, there was a kind of utensil called skin bag among the daily necessities of the nomadic people in the north, but it was rare in the south. But this bag is practical enough, and the royal family also likes it very much, so it is used in porcelain. When it is fired, the shape of the leather pouch appears."

  Li Mo looked at the bottom of the porcelain, and said to the camera: "This is a genuine sky blue glazed leather pouch jar from the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is probably the only one in the world."

   "It turned out to be official kiln porcelain made in the Yongzheng period, no wonder it is so exquisite."

   "The only piece of porcelain in the world must be of extraordinary value."

   "Associate Professor Li is mighty."

  Comments flashed on the screen of the live broadcast room, and then all kinds of rewards appeared one after another, dazzling.

"This skin jar with sky blue glaze is in the shape of a porcelain imitation skin, and then the craftsman cleverly used some small care to reduce the height of the entire skin jar. It is estimated that this idea was also very popular during the Yongzheng period. Be novel."

"This skin jar is covered with a uniform sky-blue glaze inside and out, and it looks very gorgeous. Especially the opening of the whole leather jar is very beautifully made, and the entire top cover is also equipped with a kind of chiseled copper gilt Twisted flower patterns. The small leather pouch is matched with this kind of hollow lid, and the entire lid fits tightly with the mouth of the jar, which not only increases the aesthetic effect, but also plays a role of sealing.”

   "Especially on the carving, the cover is embedded in it, chiseled with a knot pattern, and the cover is already gilded and splendid, showing a magnificent atmosphere."

  Li Mo carefully protected and put away this Qing Yongzheng sky-blue glazed leather pouch. This thing is really precious, and it is the only one in the world.

   "Associate Professor Li, no wonder you said that the most precious antiques in the entire treasure cave are stored here, and each one is rarer than the other."

   "There are forty or fifty wooden boxes here, and there may be one or two hundred of those good things, or even more."

   "Just the inventory here can open a museum, and every piece is a boutique."

  The first item is Qing ivory cabbage.

  The second piece is the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period wrong gold, silver and copper winged tiger.

  The third piece is the Qing Yongzheng Sky Blue Glazed Jar.

  Just because of these three items, this trip to Qibao was worthwhile.

   "Associate Professor Li, let's continue."

  Others can't wait to see what boutique antiques are behind.

  Li Mo rummaged through the first wooden box, and the fourth antique was a bit heavy. From the shape point of view, it is a bit arched, like a tile, and the layers of cotton cloth are uncovered to reveal the true appearance of the antique inside.

   "This is a golden book and an iron scroll, a gold medal to avoid death."

   Li Mo's eyes lit up, and his different pupils swept away, and he saw a light red halo radiating from the body of the death-free gold medal.

   "The gold medal for avoiding death in the late Tang Dynasty."
