The third and fourth floors of the Red Building are filled with antique furniture from China.
Most of these furniture were made in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, with only a few made in the early Qing Dynasty and the late Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, these antique furniture rarely come from the palace, the materials used are not very precious, and the collection value and market value are not very high.
Of course, this was for Xiao Ran. Not many of the antique furniture on the third and fourth floors of the Red Building could catch his eye.
Several pieces of antique furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties that he was interested in had already fallen into his hands before, and they were the same pieces of furniture that Liangzi came to buy.
For the tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms, the antique furniture on site is very tempting, and the same is true for the domestic antique furniture market.
Even if these antique furniture are average, the market value is generally more than ten or two hundred thousand.
Ordinary collectors can just buy it, but they don’t have to sell everything to buy it.
Just when Xiao Ran was taking everyone to visit, everyone made purchase requests, hoping to buy some antique furniture and collect it for themselves.
Just like before, Xiao Ran just smiled and told everyone.
Most of the antique furniture on the third and fourth floors of the Red Building will be sold to meet everyone's needs and give everyone some sweetness.
However, he did not agree to anyone's specific purchase request, only saying that he would consider it.
Faced with such a result, everyone can only accept it.
In addition to a large number of antique furniture, there are other antique cultural relics and works of art on the third and fourth floors of the Red Building, but the number is small.
These antique artworks are mainly porcelain, calligraphy and painting works, and most of them are from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. There are only a few works by famous artists, and their value is relatively average.
Like most of the furniture placed here, these porcelain, calligraphy and painting works are also beyond Xiao Ran's discernment, and he has no intention of collecting them himself.
But for tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms, these things are very interesting.
When money is not much, everyone is willing to buy a few pieces, collect and play with them, which is still very interesting.
While taking many fans to visit, Xiao Ran secretly looked through the third and fourth floors of the Red Building again, not missing any corner or piece of furniture.
The secret hidden here is still the same, without any change, just like what I saw through perspective several times before.
However, it is not yet time to reveal these secrets, so we can only allow these secrets to continue to be hidden here.
These secrets will be revealed one by one when the exploration of the Red Mansions officially begins.
In the blink of an eye, the time has reached noon.
On the fourth floor of the Red Building, Xiao Ran was admiring a mahogany chair from the late Qing Dynasty.
Different from the common Taishi chair, this Taishi chair looks particularly thick and solid. It is much larger than the average Taishi chair and is also very heavy.
Judging from the slightly Western art style production technique, it should be an antique furniture from Guangdong.
Unfortunately, the wood used is iron pear wood, the style is a bit nondescript, and the production technology is relatively ordinary, so it does not have much collection value!
But this seemingly ordinary antique Taishi chair seemed to attract Xiao Ran's special attention and interest.
He stepped forward and carefully inspected the heavy Taishi chair, thought for a moment, and then said through the microphone:
"This Taishi chair doesn't look right. There seems to be some problems. There may be some secret hidden in it."
“In China, furniture that can be called antique furniture and be collected by people must be furniture that conforms to the aesthetic orientation of our people.”
"Although Lu Qinzhai is the biggest traitor in the antique shop, he has no problem with his aesthetic vision, and his vision is very sharp and clever."
"With his level of collection and vision, it stands to reason that he should not collect such an ordinary piece of furniture, unless there is something hidden here."
Hearing what he said, the tens of thousands of fans in the live broadcast room suddenly became interested.
Everyone took screenshots and began to study this bulky antique furniture.
Some other guys started to post barrages, or asked directly out of curiosity.
"Xiao Ran, what secrets might this Taishi chair hide? Let me tell you about it."
"From what you're saying, is it possible that there's a secret compartment inside this grand master's chair? Is that why it's so big?"
Listening to the noise coming from the headphones, Xiao Ran smiled softly.
The next moment, he smiled and said:
"What secret is hidden in this Taishi chair? I don't know now. Maybe there is no secret at all, but I'm just paranoid!"
"If my guess is correct and this Taishi chair does hide some unknown secrets, then it is basically certain that there are hidden compartments on this Taishi chair."
"Next, I will check this Taishi chair carefully to see if I can find anything."
After hearing his explanation, everyone suddenly became more interested.
Especially those fans who speculated that this Taishi chair had hidden compartments, their eyes were shining with excitement.
The next moment, Xiao Ran took action.
He ordered Liangzi, Matthew and the others to take out the Taishi chair and wipe the dust off it.
After receiving the order, Ryoko and the others took action immediately.
In the blink of an eye, this heavy Taishi chair had been moved out and wiped clean.
Xiao Ran immediately stepped forward and began to carefully examine the antique Taishi chair again.
Following his movements, everyone looked at him and the Taishi chair.
In everyone's eyes, everyone can only see that this Taishi chair is too large and bulky, and no other problems can be seen.
But in Xiao Ran's eyes, it was far from that.
After checking it carefully, he suddenly turned around and sat directly on the Taishi chair.
Then he twisted his buttocks a few times, patted the handrails on both sides with both hands, and then said with a smile:
"I have to say that this Taishi chair is very strong. I sat on it and twisted it a few times, but it didn't move at all."
"However, the armrest on the right side of this Taishi chair is a bit strange. It feels slightly different from the armrest on the left side when photographed."
As he spoke, he turned to look at the right armrest and looked at the entire armrest carefully from beginning to end.
After checking the armrest, he suddenly reached out and pressed a wedge-shaped bump on the inside of the end of the right armrest, and pressed hard.
As a result, the wedge did not move at all, and nothing happened.
Xiao Ran was a little distrustful and pressed the wedge again.
The force he used this time was more than two or three times greater than before.
To prevent the chair from moving, he pulled the chair firmly with his other hand to ensure that it did not move out of position.
The next moment, the wedge suddenly changed and actually retracted into the thick chair legs.
Immediately afterwards, the right armrest of the Taishi chair seemed to be pushed out a little, but it made a creaking sound.
Seeing this scene, everyone immediately understood.
Xiao Ran was right. There was indeed an unknown secret hidden in the right armrest of this Taishi chair. It was probably a very secret secret compartment.
After confirming this, the live broadcast room immediately started to boil.
"I'll go! This Taishi chair actually has a secret. I just don't know what the secret is? Is it valuable?"
"Judging from Xiao Ran's analysis, this secret is most likely hidden by the traitor Lu Qinzhai, but what kind of treasure can be hidden in such a small space?"
"No matter how small the space is, it can still hide priceless treasures, such as treasure maps or famous paintings through the ages."
While everyone was talking about it, Xiao Ran had already begun to remove the right armrest of the Grand Master's chair.
After a while, he had removed the carved ironwood armrest.
The moment he pulled out the armrest, a small bag suddenly fell out from the end of the armrest and fell straight to the ground.
