The box contained a large piece of coral about two feet tall.
This piece of coral is ruddy, crystal clear, and dazzling. What is especially valuable is that it looks like a real tree, with straight trunks.
Even the most inexperienced person can tell when they see this big piece of coral that it is a very precious thing, priceless.
"Deep-sea red coral is not easy to collect, and it is even more difficult to preserve it intact. The value of this thing is almost 80-100 times that of gold."
Guo Baoli introduced.
He is right. Red coral itself has very good beauty and beauty functions. It is also one of the seven Buddhist treasures. It is also a first-class protected living organic gemstone listed as a national treasure by the country. Its value is indeed very high.
The price of top-grade red coral is between 15,000 and 20,000 yuan, which is more expensive than all gold and jade.
However, this is just the price, and it does not mean that you can buy red coral with so much money.
This thing cannot be found in more than 99% of jewelry stores in China.
Most Chinese people will never have the opportunity to see this thing with their own eyes.
However, the people present were not ordinary people. Both the Zhang family and the Liu family were from wealthy families. It would be too much to say that they had never seen red coral.
However, neither Zhang Yunling nor Liu Qian have ever seen such a big coral! This one is too big, over two feet tall. How much is it worth for such a big one! Liu Qian's eyes shone. It was obvious that she was very satisfied with this gift.
"Yunling, you are so kind to me, and you are even willing to give me such a precious gift!"
She looked happy.
"That's natural!"
Zhang Yunling's performance was very calm. He was the son of the Zhang family, how could he act like he had never seen the world?
But while he was talking, he secretly glanced at Liu Yun, wanting to see if this woman was shocked by him.
Unfortunately, Liu Yun's reaction was not very strong.
Maybe you don’t know the value of this thing?
"There are records in ancient books. During the Western Jin Dynasty, Shi Chong and Wang Kai fought for wealth. Wang Kai was the emperor's uncle. He got a coral tree from the emperor and wanted to overwhelm Shi Chong. This big coral must be that kind of coral tree. Bar?"
Zhang Yunling asked knowingly.
He just wanted Liu Yun to understand how precious this treasure was.
This is a peerless treasure that even emperors would treasure and collect in ancient times! "That's right, Mr. Zhang is indeed well-informed. The coral tree Wang Kai borrowed from the emperor at that time was this kind of coral tree. According to historical records, it should be about the same size as this one!"
Guo Baoli nodded in agreement.
Of course he is willing to cooperate and make the value of this treasure as high as possible. Anyway, he will not suffer any loss. The higher the value of the thing, the more he can get when he asks for money later.
"It's a pity that even with this coral tree, Wang Kai couldn't defeat Shi Chong."
At this time, Lu Fan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interrupted.
"Shi Chong smashed Wang Kai's coral tree, and then took out more than a dozen coral trees, each of which was bigger than Wang Kai's."
Many people have heard this story. If others can tell it, he can certainly tell it too.
"The latter ones are most likely made up by later generations. In fact, with today's picking technology, it is difficult to completely pick such a large coral tree, let alone nearly two thousand years ago! Are you right? "
Zhang Yunling said displeasedly.
He was showing off but was interfered with. Of course he would be a little unhappy.
"Yes, of course there is nothing wrong with what Mr. Zhang said. In fact, I also feel a little doubtful about the authenticity of this story."
Guo Baoli will naturally not fail to support Zhang Yunling.
After all, this is a temporary buyer, and whether he can give you a satisfactory price depends on his wishes.
"That's interesting. The first half of the same story is true, but the second half is made up."
Lu Fan smiled and did not continue talking.
However, Zhang Yunling and Guo Baoli's faces didn't look very good.
Originally, they were very proud of taking out this thing, but when this kid said it, it was as if there was something better than theirs, which made them seem a little stingy.
However, such a large coral tree was already the limit that Guo Baoli could get, and he really couldn't find a bigger one.
"Okay, stop talking, it's already great to have such a big coral tree as a birthday gift!"
Liu Yun quickly smoothed things over.
No matter what others thought, she didn't want the situation to be too embarrassing.
Moreover, this antique shop is quite big and has a lot of stuff. I think there will be more real stuff.
So Liu Yun has a strong desire to buy an antique here as a birthday gift for her grandma tomorrow.
This kind of thinking made her unwilling to go too far and make the owner of the antique shop unable to step down.
"That's not true. This is a treasure worth tens of millions or more. Of course it is the best birthday gift. But my sister, what are you going to give to grandma tomorrow?"
Liu Qian asked with a sneer.
"I'm not ready yet. Now that I'm here, I just plan to choose one."
Liu Yun said openly.
"Ms. Liu, feel free to choose. I dare not say anything else. But in terms of antiques, my store is definitely the one with the most comprehensive range of goods in the entire capital. I have everything you want here. Even if I don't have it, I will I will definitely be able to find a way to help you get it!”
Guo Baoli patted his chest.
He wasn't talking nonsense, after all, he didn't have this coral tree here, but he found a way to get it.
"Then I'll just stroll around."
Liu Yun nodded and planned to go to the front to have a look.
Although there is a coral tree here, it is already a gift from someone else. If she wants to choose, of course she has to go to the front.
"Since we want to go shopping, let's go shopping together. It just so happens that we can also settle the bill together after sister Liu Yun finishes shopping."
Zhang Yunling also followed immediately, and showed his intention to help pay the bill.
Liu Qian looked a little bit disgusted, but there was nothing she could do about it.
After all, she was able to keep Zhang Yunling by not interfering with any of his actions, including flirting with other women in front of her.
What's more, she had already had the idea of betraying Liu Yun.
"Don't worry, sister, let's take a look with you. Let me tell you, Yun Ling is a great expert in this field. With him helping you control your eyes, I can guarantee that you won't get blinded."
Liu Qian simply started assisting.
"That's not necessary. We can make our own decisions. We don't need anyone to help us."
At this time, Lu Fan appeared again, standing between Liu Yun and Zhang Yunling.
