As soon as He Ren said this, Xu Qingjie was stunned. It was possible.
But the tsundere boy got sick again, "Are you so sure?"
He Ren Xiaoxiong spread his hands and said, "If you don't believe it, just buy it and try it."
"Just try it."
Xu Qingjie walked over and picked up the pen, casually wrote the price of two hundred thousand and his number, and then threw the envelope into the jade wool plate.
He Ren still feels that this method of secret photography is unreliable. What if someone comes and peeks at the envelope? Then he discovered that there were at least seven or eight cameras around him, and then he gave up his worries.
Xu Qingjie didn't care at all. He came over and patted He Ren on the shoulder, "We'll find a place to dismantle the stone in a while to see if there's any green inside."
He Ren was speechless, what else could he say? The second generation of rich people is the second generation of rich people. Two hundred thousand dollars will give you the answer...
But he definitely wouldn't refuse. If you can solve stones, you can definitely bet on stones. He just wanted to try his luck.
Almost no one cares about this piece of rough jadeite. The so-called experts in the field are not professionals or the kind of people who gamble on it. They will not buy something that they are not sure of, except for people who have a lot of money and nowhere to spend it.
He Ren continued to walk around the table, trying to see if there was anything suitable for him to take action. After turning around for a long time, I really didn't find it.
It's not like there isn't anything that opens the door at first glance, but it's a pity that it's not very valuable. Not all antiques are valuable. Many ornaments, porcelain from private kilns, and old objects from the late Qing Dynasty may not be as expensive as new ones, so they are not worth selling at all.
At this moment, Zhang Nuo suddenly shouted in a low voice, "He Ren, come here and take a look at this. It seems to be ancient jade."
He Ren and others walked over and took a look and found that it was a ring finger.
The finger ring has existed for a very long time, dating back to the Shang Dynasty. A finger ring was unearthed from the tomb of China's first female general, Fu Hao.
The wrench was originally used as an archery tool. It is worn on the thumb and has a groove just below it to hold the bow string to prevent the bow string from scratching the fingers during shooting.
The material is mostly made of elephant bone or jade, and the shape is different from the cylindrical ones we commonly see, but trapezoidal, with one side high and one side low, which is more ergonomic.
Of course, there are also cylindrical ones, but they are usually used for decoration. It is not just the Mongols and Manchus who use cylindrical wrenches as some people say. As early as the Warring States Period, cylindrical wrenches appeared.
Later, when the Qing army entered the customs, finger pulls appeared more as decorations and were divided into civil and military ones. The wrench finger is thicker, usually plain, and some still retain string grooves.
Wen ring fingers are pure handicrafts. Some are engraved with patterns, some are engraved with poems, and some are simply engraved with various words "福" or "longevity".
Children of the Eight Banners sometimes make two identical wedding rings and give them to friends to express a good relationship. They also give them to their wives to express that the couple is of the same mind, which is a bit like a diamond ring.
The ring finger found by Zhang Nuo is a Wen ring finger. At first glance, it should be topaz, which is crystal clear and warm, with a simple patina. There is also a brown patina on it, which looks very much like a finger ring from the Yuan Dynasty.
The upper and lower ends are engraved with back patterns, and the middle is engraved with auspicious animal patterns. The lines are very smooth, the knife skills are exquisite, and the decoration is fine and exquisite. It should be a master craftsmanship.
The items must be of the same generation, but He Ren found it strange that an ancient jade ring in such good condition could be sold for five to six hundred thousand, and the base price was only fifty thousand? Or shoot in secret? Isn't this right?
When he opened his treasure-appraisal eyes, He Ren understood.
There is nothing wrong with the stuff, but it is not from the Yuan Dynasty, but was imitated during the Qianlong period. The brown patina on it is not naturally formed, but a fake technique called oil extraction.
The technique of oil extraction was very popular from the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. The specific operation is probably to use some thermal processing methods to color the originally colorless jade material.
Soaking the jade with ebony shavings and roasting it will make the jade appear dark brown, which is also called blackening; soaking the ebony shavings and roasting it will make it red, which is somewhat similar to fake simmering.
But the ancients did not use this method to make fakes. They thought that the jade after oil extraction was more beautiful and closer to ancient jade. It looked better, or it could be said to be pretentious.
At that time, everyone knew about this method of fraud, and it was very difficult to deceive people.
Simmering has been introduced before. It is impossible to be completely crack-free with modern technology, let alone ancient times. The same is true for oil extraction. It is precisely because the cracks are relatively large and there was no habit of wearing gloves when playing in ancient times. Therefore, over time, sweat seeped into the jade through the cracks, and instead formed a yellowish-brown color, making it look more beautiful. Looks good...
Seeing that He Ren was silent, Zhang Nuo pushed him, "How about it? Is it from the Yuan Dynasty? Can you take action?"
"Oh, it's not from the Yuan Dynasty. It's from the Qing Dynasty. It may be from the Qianlong period. It's an oily yellow jade. It's not that valuable. It's only worth more than 100,000 yuan. It won't be more than 200,000 yuan at auction."
Zhang Nuo obviously doesn't know what lifting oil is, but Fang Mingxuan knows that he has already started to popularize it.
He Ren looked at the two envelopes on the plate and pondered. He was about to take them. He liked collecting, especially jade.
The ring in front of me is Burmese topaz, which is also an ancient jade from the Qianlong period. It is worth collecting.
It's just that the price given by the appraisal eye is 150,000, and the auction price is 200,000. If everyone can tell that it is made from oil, it will be okay. What if someone is like Zhang Nuo and thinks it is an ancient jade from the Yuan Dynasty? He Ren couldn't take it off.
After thinking about it for a long time, He Ren still wrote one hundred and fifty thousand and filled in his own number before throwing the envelope into the plate. Whether he could take it or not depends on God's will.
No, I should say, it depends on other people’s eyesight...
He Ren was lucky. Apparently, the people present today had good eyesight. They saw that the finger pull was made of oil, so they naturally thought it was a modern imitation and did not even think about making it a genuine imitation.
He Ren bought the topaz ring for 150,000 yuan. After paying the money, he took the ring in his hand and looked at it carefully. He did find several cracks, but it did not affect He Ren's good mood. He directly put the ring on his hand.
It's certainly worth being happy to pick up a treasure, but sometimes it's even more joyful to find a treasure that you like.
Xu Qingjie was also very lucky. No one tried to grab the piece of jadeite material from him. He easily obtained it and made more than 190,000 yuan.
This kind of wool should be stones picked up somewhere. At most, it will cost a little electricity when polishing, as well as the paint for coloring. It should not be much more expensive than ordinary bricks.
According to Xu Qingjie's wishes, he had to find a place to remove the stone now. He couldn't wait any longer. He Ren held him down, "Why are you in a hurry? There are still two rounds left, and the wool can't escape."
Fang Mingxuan also helped, "Master Xu, stay calm and go to my friend's place to analyze the stone later. He still has a lot of raw material there. If you like it, you can bet another two dollars."
He Ren's eyes lit up, "Mr. Fang, is this material from Myanmar?"
Fang Mingxuan shook his head. He Ren understood. This was probably where Bang Chui was fooled...
At this time, other lots were being sold one after another. He Ren took a look and saw that half of the more than 20 treasures were unsold. It seemed that there were not many good things in the ghost market today.
When the second batch of lots came up, He Ren was stunned again because he saw a chair about one meter high.
Is this thing also being put up for auction?
