The antique shop owner curled his lips, obviously not wanting to pay any attention to Zhang Fan.
But he didn't expect Zhang Fan to casually point at the snuff bottle on his stall!
"Look at this snuff bottle of yours. You marked it here with a cardboard, saying it is from the Tang Dynasty! But if you only look at the workmanship on the surface of this snuff bottle, it is not of that style at all. Especially the carvings on it, which are completely a common modern style.
Moreover, if you take a closer look at the snuff bottle, you will find traces of merging at the corners. Such symmetry is not something that could be made in ancient times, so…"
Having said that!
Some people have gathered nearby!
Obviously he wanted to hear Zhang Fan's insights on identifying antiques.
When the boss saw how things turned out, he was shocked!
If Zhang Fan were allowed to continue talking, he would be selling fakes and there would probably be no business here for a long time!
So he immediately turned around and said: "Okay, okay, it's just a piece of iron. I'll sell it to you for five dollars, but don't come to my place to cause trouble in the future."
Zhang Fan smiled casually!
I bought a night-shining pearl for five dollars. Can you believe it?
Hua Yueying took out her mobile phone and scanned the code to pay!
He bought this priceless night pearl, which is rarely seen by mortals, for five dollars!
I guess if the stall owner knew the truth, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot.
After paying the bill, Zhang Fan continued walking towards the street!
Li Chen on the side finally couldn't help it.
"Mr. Zhang, why would you pay for a piece of scrap metal!"
Zhang Fan paused: "Scrap metal?"
Hua Yueying smiled gently. With her spiritual power, although she could not identify antiques, she could tell what was inside the iron ball at a glance.
Nowadays, a night pearl is called scrap iron, which is naturally funny!
Then he started to mock!
"Li Chen, right? I think you're very suitable to be a tour guide! But if you help people identify antiques, I'm afraid you'll end up cheating them!"
Li Chen's face suddenly changed!
He thought of Zhang Fan's casual advice on identifying antiques in the antique shop just now!
Today, being looked down upon by a beautiful woman is not worth mentioning!
But if there is a problem with your professional skills, that would be a big deal.
So he became even more curious and spoke immediately.
"Mr. Zhang, can you help us answer this question? Of course I'm just curious!"
Zhang Fan looked at the phone in Li Chen's hand, then shook his head and said.
"Don't judge things by appearance!"
"Do you know the Night Pearl?"
Li Chen was stunned for a moment, then he said: "If we say that the most famous moment of the Night Pearl is held by Empress Dowager Cixi, it should be the moment when it was held in her hand. I heard that the material is very special, and it is divided into two parts. If you hold the Night Pearl alone, it is transparent and lightless, but if you put it together, it can emit a long white light. In the dark night, it can illuminate the surrounding area of dozens of meters, and there is no glare!
This is a rare treasure, and it also proves that Ye Mingzhu is unique! "
Zhang Fan nodded slightly when he heard this!
He only knew that this thing was a night-shining pearl, but he didn't know some of its history. Now Li Chen's explanation made him understand some of it!
"I know you are wondering why I would buy an iron bead! Even if it looks like an antique, if you want to know why, how about you treat us to a meal? It will be your tuition fee!"
How could Li Chen dare to refuse, because Zhang Fan had already revealed between the lines that this iron ball was by no means as simple as it seemed!
So he immediately booked a table at a nearby five-star hotel and drove there with Zhang Fan.
After arriving at the hotel!
Li Chen first placed his mobile phone facing the table, so that many online viewers could also taste the food in a five-star hotel!
Then he invited Zhang Fan to sit down.
At the same time, various questions emerged in the live broadcast room!
"Aren't you here to look for treasure? Why are you here to eat again?"
"Wow, five dollars for a bead and a meal worth thousands of dollars in exchange? This guy made a good deal!"
"This guy doesn't look like a bad guy. How could he cheat for food and drinks?"
"Is that iron ball I bought for five dollars really worth so much? If you want to take a look at it, you have to treat me to a meal first! What kind of logic is that?"
Looking at all kinds of questions in the live broadcast room, Li Chen felt a little nervous!
Don't do it live on the spot, you'll make a fool of yourself.
At this time, Zhang Fan, who was sitting in his seat, smiled slightly and took out the iron ball.
"Look at the iron ball now. The surface is covered with green rust, but in the center, there is a crack that is difficult to detect with the naked eye!"
Li Chen picked it up and took a closer look, sure enough!
This iron ball looks ordinary and insignificant, even ugly beyond description. Holding it in your hand feels like holding a stone!
However, there was a tiny crack in the middle of the iron ball!
This thin crack is very difficult to detect with the naked eye. If you don’t look carefully, you will just think it is a natural scratch!
But if it can really be opened, this craftsmanship can be called a work of art that is beyond compare!
So Li Chen understood instantly!
It's just a broken iron ball, why is it worth taking a second look?
However, there is a wonderful craftsmanship on this broken iron ball, and it is obvious that this iron ball can be opened!
Zhang Fan took the iron ball!
Li Chen clasped his hands respectfully and bowed.
"Sir, please teach me something!"
"Learn it!" Zhang Fan pointed to the seat and then handed the iron ball to Hua Yueying.
You know, this iron ball has not been opened for hundreds of years, and the green rust on the outside is still quite strong. Zhang Fan doesn't want to get his hands dirty!
So this kind of strenuous work was naturally left to Hua Yueying!
Hua Yueying also took it casually with a very respectful attitude, and subconsciously smiled at Zhang Fan!
In the eyes of others, it was an honor for Zhang Fan to let Hua Yueying do something!
"Am I blind? Such a beautiful woman, but I can only do dirty and tiring work when I am with her?"
"This is too much of a jerk! Such a beauty, instead of being worshipped like a fairy every day, you let such a beauty do dirty and tiring work?"
Even Li Chen felt a little distressed!
This iron ball is very heavy. Zhang Fan didn't break it open by himself, but gave it to the slender beauty beside him? This really hurt her as a single person!
And what happened next was even more shocking!
This iron ball that had been sealed for hundreds of years was just gently twisted in Hua Yueying's slender hands!
There was only a slight clicking sound!
The iron ball slowly opened, revealing a hemispherical glass product that was split into two halves. It was transparent and colorless, and the two halves were separated by a thin piece of oil paper. Hua Yueying poured it onto the table.
When Li Chen saw these two glass hemispheres, he was stunned!
“Surprisingly, there is a treasure inside!”
Li Chen took a breath of cold air!
What kind of eyesight is this? It’s so many levels higher than mine!
I have seen this thing myself and I didn't find any clues! ?
