Lan Xiaolan put a professional magnifying glass on her eyeball, held tweezers in one hand and a test tube in the other, and carefully took a small amount of powder sample from the wall of the large tank.
Her subtle techniques were extremely professional, comparable to textbook movements, which amazed the junior connoisseurs watching nearby.
"You should have professional equipment here. Use it to analyze the composition and age of the carbon atoms."
"If my guess is correct, this should be a vessel from the end of the Song Dynasty. Of course, to know for sure whether it is, we still have to trust professional instruments."
Then she took out a bottle of medicine from the tool box and poured some on the cotton.
Everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath when they saw Lan Xiaolan's actions.
She carefully used tweezers to hold the cotton and wiped the bottom of the large vat bit by bit.
The student appraiser next to her was holding the light for her.
"Don't shine the light directly on the cultural relics. The high-temperature white light will damage them. Please shine the light farther away. I only need some weak light to see carefully."
The appraiser next to her instantly became her assistant student and did as she said one by one.
In a few seconds, a soaring dragon and Chinese auspicious clouds appeared above the vat.
The carving technique is so advanced that everyone around is amazed.
Following the position of Tianlong, I found a huge arch-shaped crack on the other side of the vat.
The moment everyone saw the cracks, they all shook their heads and sighed in disappointment.
You know, the integrity of cultural relics is often an important component of their value.
Such a large and obvious crack undoubtedly greatly reduces the price of this large tank.
However, the moment she saw the crack, Lan Xiaolan grinned, excitedly held Ren Tingxi's hand, and jumped up.
"Tingxi, look! It's the real thing! It's definitely this big jar."
"What's wrong? You look so excited."
Lan Xiaolan excitedly crawled into Ren Tingxi's arms, and Ren Tingxi picked her up regardless of everyone's strange looks.
"I've read many rare documents, and one of them mentioned this large copper and green tile jar with a coiled dragon."
"This large vat was made by the ancient royal family. Legend has it that in order to stabilize the country's fortune, they used rare purple clay yarn to forge such a large vat. It is located in the imperial garden."
"This large vat went through more than 500 steps in its production, and it is truly a miracle in ceramic manufacturing."
"However, in order to stabilize the country's destiny, this large vat has been abandoned in the Imperial Garden. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, its former glory has long been forgotten by the world."
"Tingxi, come over here and take a look at this crack."
"The only copy of the ancient book I was reading was actually a diary written by a prince of the royal family at that time."
"The literature mentions that he was playing Cuju in the imperial garden at the time, but his technique was very poor, and in his haste, he kicked the vat and broke it into pieces."
"You know, this is a big jar that stabilizes the country's destiny. Now it has been kicked to pieces by this prince. If he is blamed, he may even be beheaded."
"Later, the prince ordered the vat to be hidden. Combining the memories of the then-mature bronze forging industry with the years of craftsmanship of several skilled carving masters in the palace, the vat was finally restored."
"This is also the only bronze-encased purple clay pottery work in my country. It is rare in the world and is an important cultural treasure of our country."
"Oh my God, Tingxi, God knows what kind of priceless cultural relics we have photographed today."
Everyone was shocked when they heard Lanlan's words.
The businessman who had just bid with them was holding his head in regret.
I really didn't expect that Ren Tingxi's wife is actually an expert in cultural relics appreciation, if it is just as she just said.
Then this big vat can be said to be a priceless treasure.
"We should call the consulate now. We should escort such an important historical relic back to China as soon as possible."
Luo Yingying noticed the chaos at the scene and immediately ordered security to come and protect the scene. Ren Tingxi personally called the embassy.
Leng Lie was not idle either. With such a good opportunity, how could he not let the media come and publicize it extensively?
In a short while, the local and Chinese escort troops, consulate staff, and a huge group of media workers had surrounded the auction site.
Ren Tingxi held Lan Xiaolan in his arms and walked towards the lounge room, thus avoiding the noisy crowd.
"I still have some cleanup work to do. Just wait here for me to come back, okay?"
After Ren Tingxi finished speaking, he lifted her chin slightly with his fingertips and gently bit her soft lips.
After the last kidnapping incident, Ren Tingxi was always worried about leaving Lan Xiaolan easily in Country E.
The villain behind the scenes has not been caught yet and no one knows who he is.
So Ren Tingxi didn't leave until Nusi rushed to the lounge to accompany Lan Xiaolan.
"Xiaolan, are you okay?" Nusi asked with concern.
"I'm fine, everything is fine. I'm happy that the lost cultural relics can be returned to China today."
Suddenly, a man in strange clothes rushed in. As soon as he entered the room, he excitedly pushed Lan Xiaolan onto the bed and almost kissed her on the face several times.
