Ye Zhiqiu whispered: "That is the Chaozhu of the Qing Dynasty!"

Yao Xiuna was stunned and said excitedly: "It's very valuable, isn't it?"

Ye Zhiqiu's face darkened: "The owner should have the Life Flower!"

Yao Xiuna asked in surprise: "What do you mean? It is easy to arouse the covetousness of others?"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, his face slightly solemn. He pulled Yao Xiuna and walked slowly to the front, pretending to look at the imitation Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain bowl next to him.

Suddenly, Ye Zhiqiu's eyes fell on a fist-sized black jadeite wool next to a blue and white porcelain bowl. The outer shell was extremely rough, like tree bark.

One side has been cut open, the edge is very neat, the cross section is gray, and there is no trace of water.

This piece of wool had obviously been bought by someone, but after cutting it, no material came out. The remaining scraps were thrown aside casually, used as stones, and pressed against the red cloth on the ground.

Ye Zhiqiu silently ran his clairvoyant eyes and glanced quietly, his heart jumped suddenly: This turned out to be a piece of ink green!

He quickly lowered his head and looked at the blue and white porcelain bowl and the green Buddhist bead.

"Sir, Miss! Which one do you like? You can check it carefully. I guarantee that the one here is absolutely authentic!" The boss is in his thirties, with a thin face, dark skin, and a pair of small eyes twinkling.

Ye Zhiqiu picked up the bead casually: "Is this a Buddhist bead from the Qing Dynasty?"

The boss was full of praise: "Sir, you are so discerning! These are not only beads from the Qing Dynasty, but also beads from the Empress Dowager Cixi and Lafayette!"

"Lafayette has always liked to wear Buddhist beads. Until the last moment before her death, she also ordered that she must be buried with this Buddhist beads after her death!"

"The ministers of the DPRK complied with her last wishes, and this Buddhist bead was buried with her. Later, the great thief Sun Dianying of the Republic of China stole the Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty because of lack of military pay. All the funerary objects in the tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi were looted, and this Buddhist bead was also buried with her. Living outside."

Ye Zhiqiu looked at him without any trace, and was faintly aware of the earthy smell emanating from his body.

Although he is a farmer, he is not as stupid and ignorant as ordinary farmers, and he is full of cleverness.

"What do you call the boss?"

The man chuckled: "My surname is Sun. Because I am thin, others call me Sun Hou! You can call me the same!"

Ye Zhiqiu said again: "Your accent doesn't sound like a local from Jianghai City?"

Sun Houhou smiled and said: "I am from Linping City in the southwest of Jianghai City. The accents of our two cities are somewhat different!"

"Then how did Brother Sun discover this Buddhist bead?"

Sun Houhou said seriously: "After this Buddhist bead was spread, it passed through many people and was collected by wealthy businessmen! A month ago, I accidentally discovered it at an old farmhouse in the countryside of Linping!"

"The old farmer's ancestors were wealthy landlords. Later, the local tycoons divided the land. His family went bankrupt and he became a poor peasant. Most of his property was lost. However, his grandfather hid this Buddhist bead in a pit several meters deep underground. No one found it. Only then did you escape!"

"He knew something about antiques and knew that these old objects were more valuable now. It happened that his family was going to build a villa, so he took it out and sold it!"

"Little brother, if you want, the value can be slightly lower! Two million!"

The Buddha bead that Ye Zhiqiu gently turned with his right hand revealed a small hole in the middle. There was a simple Buddha head engraved on the bead, but its appearance was unusually ferocious, which made people feel a little frightened.

"Boss Sun, since this is a real antique, why don't you go to those stores and sell it?"

Sun Houhou hurriedly shook his head.

"Anyone with a little knowledge will know that it is a cultural relic from the tomb of the Empress Dowager Cixi. No one can guarantee whether those people will call the police! Don't let me get a penny and still be arrested!"

"Why don't you meet an expert here and sell it at the right price?"

Ye Zhiqiu felt that his reason was not very sufficient. This was not stolen just now, but almost a hundred years ago. Even if the relevant departments knew about it, they might not hold him responsible as the seller.

"Little brother, two million is definitely worth it! This is just a single bead. If it were a string of Buddhist beads made by Empress Dowager Cixi, I'm afraid it would cost at least several hundred million! I will never sell it cheaply at a street stall!"

Sun Houhou saw that Ye Zhiqiu was a little moved and kept encouraging him.

Ye Zhiqiu sneered in his heart, wondering if Monkey Sun really didn't know the origin of this Buddhist bead, or he was deliberately hiding it.

This Buddhist bead does belong to the Empress Dowager Cixi, but it is said that this Buddhist bead has the power of a curse, and anyone who touches it will die violently.

The Empress Dowager Cixi originally gave this bead to Emperor Guangxu, and Guangxu gave it to his concubine Zhenfei. However, not long after, Concubine Zhen was executed, Guangxu died in prison, and Empress Dowager Cixi also died later.

Although these stories about strange powers and chaos are not believable, whether they are Buddha statues, Buddhist beads, or various Buddhist artifacts, there are many taboos in the first place. People in the world also hold the belief that they would rather believe their existence than not their non-existence in these legends. manner.

"Boss Sun, this is not jade, it is turquoise, and it is not worth that much money at all! Moreover, it is said that this Buddhist bead can easily bring bad luck to people, so no one wants it!"

"You still want two million? Not to mention one million, I'm afraid it's even half a million, and it's not even worth it!"

"You haven't been here all day, have you? Are all the buyers afraid to avoid it once they see its true origin?"

Sun Houhou's face turned red. He didn't expect Ye Zhiqiu to know so clearly about this matter, so he hurriedly explained.

"Little brother, that's not what it is! It is true that Empress Dowager Cixi's beads are said to be cursed! But they are talking about the string of eighteen beads, not this one! You are confused!"

Ye Zhiqiu curled his lips: "But I think this is the one! Two million is too expensive, two hundred thousand, I want it!"

"Two hundred thousand?"

Monkey Sun almost vomited blood.

"This is not a discount, this is a fracture! The price of two hundred thousand is too low, it will never be sold! One and a half million!"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head.

"1.2 million!"

Ye Zhiqiu smiled slightly and said no more.

Monkey Sun looked at him intently and stretched out a finger: "One million!"

Ye Zhiqiu chuckled and still shook his head.

"Eight hundred thousand! Just eight hundred thousand! No more!" Sunhou Hou gritted his teeth, looking heartbroken.

Ye Zhiqiu put down the Buddhist bead, turned around, and looked at the blue and white porcelain bowl and the dark jade stone.

He grabbed the porcelain bowl with his left hand and the original stone with his right hand, and said casually: "How do they sell it?"

Sun Houhou rolled his eyes and looked at Ye Zhiqiu in surprise.

Suddenly, he chuckled: "Little brother, this porcelain bowl is authentic blue and white porcelain from the period of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty! And that stone is full of ink and green and is priceless!"
