Chapter 146: Integration of Hundreds of Schools

"Do you guys see anything you like?" The stall owner observed the two people in front of him with his shrewd eyes.

You can tell at a glance that what these two are wearing are not cheap goods. And looking at the two men holding cameras behind them, they are probably internet celebrities who are here to shoot a short video.

The stall owner seldom watched movies or TV series on weekdays, and he had no idea that the person squatting in front of his stall was a big name in the entertainment industry in recent years.

Also, because there were no special game sessions today, the six guests all wore casual clothes.

Qiao Zhijing is the spokesperson for a luxury brand, and his agent specially brought him clothes provided by the brand in order to promote it during the live broadcast.

Xu Zhao, who has no endorsement, wears relatively simple clothes, but she prefers quality rather than quantity when buying clothes, so her clothes will not be cheap.

Looking at the clarity in their eyes, I'm afraid they don't even know what he is selling at his stall.

Qiao Zhijing had a curious look on his face, completely unaware that in the eyes of the stall owner, he was already a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

After looking through them one by one, Xu Zhao felt that none of them caught his eye, so he stood aside with a lack of interest and watched Qiao Zhijing choose.

"Zhao Zhao, what do you think of this?" Qiao Zhijing looked at them one by one from left to right, and picked up a bronze mirror in front of him on the right. The bronze mirror was covered with green rust and looked quite old.

Xu Zhao tilted his head to look at the bronze mirror in his hand. It was round in shape, and there seemed to be patterns on the edge of the mirror. Unfortunately, it was a bit far away and could not be seen clearly.

Qiao Zhijing's photographer specifically aimed the lens at the bronze mirror and gave a close-up of the bronze mirror in his hand so that the audience in the live broadcast room could see it clearly.

In order to see the patterns clearly, Xu Zhao leaned closer and stroked the patterns with his fingertips.

"This gentleman has a really good eye. The bronze mirror in your hand is called the Golden-back Phoenix Pattern Diamond Mirror. It is a bronze mirror from the late Yu Dynasty. Look at the workmanship and exquisite patterns on it. It is very suitable for taking home as a collection."

When Qiao Zhijing heard the stall owner say that this was a bronze mirror from the late Yu Dynasty, he suddenly became excited. Their program was mainly about knowledge related to the Yu Dynasty, and this mirror happened to be of the right age.

If it is true, then the probability of winning is very high.

The more Qiao Zhijing looked at the bronze mirror in his hand, the more he liked it. However, this antique street was very crowded, so he remained alert the whole time, repeatedly turning the bronze mirror in his hand, waiting for the stall owner's next move.

As expected, the stall owner saw that the man in front of him had no intention of asking the price, probably because he thought the cultural relic was not valuable.

Then he would have to raise the price of this bronze mirror.

"Sir, if you don't like it, you can go to other stores to have a look. But I can guarantee that I'm the only one with this mirror on this street. But if you go to other stores and come back, I can't guarantee that this mirror is still there."

Xu Zhao raised his eyebrows, what a good move of retreating to advance.

When Qiao Zhijing, who was holding a mirror in her hand, heard this, ripples of emotion appeared in her heart, and her originally calm expression moved slightly. The stall owner's eyes were determined and he could see it clearly.

"The mirror in your hand is the favorite bronze mirror of Empress Zhuang Ding of the Yu Dynasty. I heard that it was her dowry and was later given to her daughter Princess Luanyu as a dowry. Unfortunately, after the fall of the Yu Dynasty, this bronze mirror was lost to the people. I also received it from a farmer. I heard that it was an ancestral heirloom."

The stall owner first told the story of the bronze mirror, and then explained that the bronze mirror had a legitimate origin, which was a good calculation.

"Boss, how much is this mirror?" Qiao Zhijing listened to the story and asked tentatively, not knowing whether it was true or not.

The boss stretched out a hand and waved it in front of the two of them.

Qiao Zhijing asked: "Five hundred?"

This was the most money he could afford.

The stall owner sneered, "Sir, this is an antique, a cultural relic from the late Yu Dynasty, how could it be worth five hundred? If you really want it, fifty thousand, no bargaining!"

fifty thousand! ! !

How dare you ask for fifty thousand just for this broken mirror?

Qiao Zhijing's original desire to buy it was extinguished in an instant.

Antiques are really good for making money.

[Be careful, this broken mirror costs fifty thousand. I can't even make fifty thousand in a year! 】

[The person above, if this mirror is really from the late Yu Dynasty, the price would be much higher than this. Fifty thousand is still considered cheap. 】

[I checked the latest auction in the United States. A set of tea cups from the late Yu Dynasty was auctioned for 20 million. If this mirror is real, it would probably start at 5 million. 】

[But I think this mirror looks very plastic, and fifty yuan seems too much. 】

"Brother Qiao, can you lend me this mirror?"

She wanted to take a good look at how valuable this fifty thousand dollar mirror looked.

Xu Zhao took the mirror from Qiao Zhijing and asked, "Boss, you just said that this mirror was passed on to Princess Luanyu as a dowry?"

"That's right!" the stall owner answered confidently.

"That's strange," Xu Zhao pretended to be puzzled, "But I remember that Princess Luanyu was not the biological daughter of Queen Zhuangding at all. How could she give her favorite bronze mirror to a princess who was born out of wedlock?"

"This..." The stall owner was stunned by Xu Zhao's question. He blinked quickly and said, "How can we know about these ancient things? Maybe Queen Zhuang Ding liked Princess Luanyu." After saying that, the stall owner laughed dryly to ease the embarrassment.

"Oh, that does make sense." Xu Zhao showed a face that was persuaded, but she curled her lips and changed the subject, "I see that the shape of this bronze mirror is round, but boss, you just said it is called a golden-backed phoenix pattern diamond-shaped mirror."

"Is there any problem?" The stall owner's words lacked some confidence.

"Of course there is a problem. Since it is a diamond-shaped mirror, it means that the shape of the bronze mirror should be an eight-petal diamond-shaped mirror, but yours is round."

"Speaking of the mirror knob on yours, most of the bronze mirrors of the Yu Dynasty had animal-shaped knobs, but yours is crescent-shaped. I remember that the Yue Kingdom believed in the moon god, and their designs often had crescents."

Xu Zhao pointed out the location of the camera button to Qiao Zhijing and the stall owner, and asked the cameraman behind him to move the camera over.

Finally, he did not forget to mock: "And the pattern on this bronze mirror, the golden-backed phoenix, that is the totem of the Central Jin Dynasty, how could it be on a bronze mirror of the Yu Dynasty? Your mirror is a fusion of hundreds of schools of thought."

After Xu Zhao's explanation, for some reason, when Qiao Zhijing saw this mirror again, four big words flashed through his mind: neither fish nor fowl.

Qiao Zhijing snatched the mirror directly from Xu Zhao's hand and put the bronze mirror back to its original position, "Zhao Zhao, let's go."

He stood up and walked away quickly, then complained to Xu Zhao beside him, "No wonder there are no customers in front of this stall. I'm afraid that people who are familiar with this place know that this stall owner is dishonest and loves to cheat people."

Xu Zhao nodded in agreement.

"Fortunately, Zhao Zhao, you know a lot. After listening to the story told by the stall owner, I almost fell in love." Thinking about it now, Qiao Zhijing is a little scared. The vendors on this antique street are really eloquent.
