Xia Manyu was surprised: "Why did our national treasure end up in an Asian island country?"
Ye Zhiqiu said: "There is an obsidian celestial eye, which was given by Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the daimyo of the island country. At that time, the island country was under the power of the Ashikaga shogunate. The obsidian celestial eye was passed down from generation to generation in the island country. It is now preserved in Jingjiatou and has become Their national treasure.”
Qin Ruosong sighed: "The other two celestial eyes were changed in 1915. Prince Chun's Palace sold them to the No. 3 Middle School Chamber of Commerce for 6,000 yuan. The No. 3 Middle School Chamber of Commerce sold them to the Fujita family of the island country. They are now kept in the Fujita Museum of Art!”
"Jianzhan is a treasure of our ancestors, but the Yaobian Tianmu is only known to collectors around the world because of the island country's praise! This is really a great irony!"
Qin Ruosong glanced at the rabbit-hair jianzhan in Ye Zhiqiu's hand.
"If your jianzhan is in perfect condition, the market price will be at least three million."
"Now it has been damaged, at least half of it! If we can find a repairman to repair it again, it will be a valuable collection!"
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head: "This black porcelain bowl is worth 1.5 million, which is enough. If it is repaired by a repairman, the cost will be sky-high. It has far exceeded its own value, and it is not worth it at all!"
Li Fugui's face was cold and greedy.
"Little brother, I will give you three hundred thousand, and you can sell me this Jianzhan!"
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and said with a smile: "I won't sell it!"
Li Fugui's eyes became more fierce, and his face seemed to be covered with frost.
"Five million! No more!"
"I won't sell it if I say it won't! How can there be so much nonsense? I just think this is a broken bowl. It would be good to use it as a cat bowl for my cats when I go home!"
Li Fugui looked ferocious and stared at him fiercely. The muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch, but he didn't say another word.
The onlookers laughed lowly, knowing that Ye Zhiqiu was teasing him deliberately.
"Let me look at your root carving!"
Qin Ruosong suddenly spoke, looking directly at the piece of wood in Ye Zhiqiu's left hand.
The whole thing is dark, with complex lines carved on the end, as if it were carved into something animal.
"This doesn't look like root carving!"
Qin Ruosong shook his right hand and found it was very heavy. He looked confused, "Is it a stone sculpture?"
Ye Zhiqiu chuckled: "Maybe!"
Qin Ruosong glanced at him suspiciously and looked down at the thing again.
He gently wiped the stains on the surface with a wet wipe, and suddenly, he saw pieces of black skin falling off.
Qin Ruosong was shocked. Xia Manyu and everyone onlookers saw this scene. Everyone was stunned and immediately realized that since it was a double layer, there must be a treasure hidden inside.
Qin Ruosong kept rubbing his fingers, and the rusty black skin fell off, revealing a vermilion square mark inside. The other end of the seal is engraved with a dragon with teeth and claws, which is exquisite and lifelike.
The entire seal handle showed blood-red stripes that seemed to be broken but not broken.
Under those stripes, there are actually carved pieces of vague clouds, surrounded by a light mist, the clouds are steaming and glowing, and they are extraordinary and elegant.
"This is...the bloodstone seal!"
Qin Ruosong held the seal tightly in his right hand, trembling with excitement.
The crowd of people watching were also very excited. These people were all antique players. Even though many of them had just started in the industry, they still knew some antique knowledge. Soapstone has been an excellent material for making seals since ancient times.
And the outside of this bloodstone is actually wrapped with some fake means. At first glance, it looks like an old object. It was either made by a famous person in history or belonged to an emperor or general.
Qin Ruosong turned over the front of the seal and saw four seal characters written on it: "Only a few are healthy!"
He was stunned immediately, his eyes widened.
"This is... the seal of Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty!"
"The seal of Emperor Jiaqing?" Everyone was shocked.
Everyone couldn't help but gasped: "Director Qin, you can't make a mistake, right?"
Of course, everyone knew that Qin Ruosong, the dignified deputy director of the Municipal Museum, was absolutely unmistakable. They just couldn't believe that a discarded item that Ye Zhiqiu randomly picked turned out to be the royal possession of Emperor Jiaqing.
Qin Ruosong held up the magnifying glass and examined it carefully again. His whole body couldn't help but tremble violently, and he murmured to himself: "I want to make a mistake too!"
"We are extremely healthy! This is the admonition given by Emperor Jiaqing to himself!"
"He has two soapstone seals, both of which are engraved with these four characters. One is in Manchu and is now in the collection of the Palace Museum!"
"The other one is written in Chinese. Although various documents prove the existence of that seal, we still don't know its whereabouts! I didn't expect it to be among the people!"
Everyone was in a state of excitement.
"The imperial belongings of Emperor Jiaqing are probably worth tens of millions, right?"
"The bloodstone seal itself is priceless. It is an old object with historical heritage, and it is the emperor's possession! If the value is not increased several times? I'm afraid it will be hundreds of millions?"
"I'll go! The Jianzhan that this young man picked just now, I thought he had already picked up a big leak! Unexpectedly, I picked up another priceless treasure!"
"Last year at a Sotheby's auction in New York, a bloodstone seal of Nian Gengyao was sold for US$12 million! This seal is a red robe full of blood and is probably worth at least 150 million! "
Qin Ruosong was so excited that he trembled all over and reluctantly returned the seal to Ye Zhiqiu's hand.
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this.
Xia Manyu stared at Ye Zhiqiu dumbfounded, with a happy face. Now she has already realized that Ye Zhiqiu seemed to have chosen them randomly, and she might have discovered their secrets just now.
Li Fugui stared intently at the seal in Ye Zhiqiu's hand, his eyes shining with a strange light.
"Mine! Mine! This seal is mine, you must not take it away!"
Ye Zhiqiu sneered: "Yours? We just completed the transaction, did you forget?"
Li Fugui was furious and scolded the eighteenth generation of Gu Tianci's ancestors in his heart. Just now he was thinking of exonerating him, but now he was eager to send him in immediately.
Even if it’s my third-marriage brother-in-law, I don’t even recognize him anymore!
He could barely hold back his anger: "Little brother, I can buy it for 10 million!"
"You only paid 10 million for something worth 1.5 billion? Is there such a good thing in the world?" Ye Zhiqiu chuckled.
Li Fugui could no longer pretend and roared: "Ten million is to give you face!"
"Now I don't want to lose a penny, please leave this seal to me! Otherwise, neither you nor this stinky woman will be able to leave my store!"
"Hey! A gangster? Let me see why you don't let us out of the store? Manyu, let's go!"
