I am many years in the courtyard

Whoa!
Everyone exclaimed when they heard the words of many years.

Gu Wei even said directly:

"impossible!"

"There is no way this amber pillow is from the Eastern Han Dynasty or the Qin Dynasty. You, Han, are talking nonsense."

"It is obviously an object from the Yuan Dynasty. How could it be an object from more than 2000 years ago?"

He looked caring for the mentally retarded for many years and said, "Yes, yes, everything you said is right!"

Immediately, he continued to look at Mr. Guan, but did not speak again.

He really hopes that the other party can cut off his love, but he has to wait for the other party to open his mouth.

Museums in the future are in great need of fine national treasures like amber pillows.

Moreover, as the first antique with 81 dragon-shaped white mist that he encountered in his many years of collecting antiques, it is very memorable.

Therefore, if you collect it, you can use it as a treasure in the future.

Antiques like amber pillows not only have medicinal value, but also have collection value, and their existence is a priceless treasure.

Therefore, it is understandable that it has become a treasure of the town hall.

In comparison, antiques such as amber pillows are better than many jade pendants, dragon beds, etc.

Before Mr. Guan could speak, Gu Wei stood up again.

"You even told the wrong story about the origin of this amber pillow, and you still want this amber pillow? Do you think Mr. Guan will pay attention to you?"

But at this moment, Mr. Guan spoke.

"Comrade Han is indeed a strange man, but this is one of the most precious items among my many collections. If you want to buy it, I'm afraid you won't be able to."

The implication is already very obvious: it depends on the price!

Gu Wei looked at Mr. Guan in disbelief like a clown.

However, no one paid attention to him, and Mr. Guan didn't even look at him.

What amber pillow from the Yuan Dynasty, nonsense!
"Old man, what are the conditions, but it doesn't matter."

If you smile a little for many years and have something to talk about, then there will be no problem.

"Anyone who knows me well knows that I never like to bargain."

"Besides, although I don't have as much wealth as the old man, I am still willing to take this amber pillow if it is suitable."

His meaning is also very clear. You can ask for a price, but don't ask for a sky-high price.

Mr. Guan took a deep look at Duan Nian, and then said he would talk about it later.

There is no point in striking while the iron is hot. After all, everyone’s understanding of amber pillows is still very one-sided.

Others will not take the initiative to increase their prices and will be severely ripped off by Mr. Guan.

Besides, as I said many years ago, he doesn't like to bargain!
This means that if others compete with him, he will never do it.

The result is nothing more than a high price being offered for many years, and others being frightened, or not being quoted for many years, and giving up the amber pillow.

No matter which result it is, it is not what Mr. Guan wants to see.

Therefore, now is the time to introduce this amber pillow and tell all its actual year, identity information of the previous owner, etc. Only in this way can it be possible to increase its value and sell it at a good price.

It is true that the amber pillow is a national treasure, but it is too difficult to take it out of the capital.

"To tell you the truth, this amber pillow is indeed my favorite collection."

As soon as Mr. Guan opened his mouth, he was trying to show off to Amber Pillow.

"However, what Comrade Han said just now is correct. This amber pillow is from the Eastern Han Dynasty, but its fate was relatively bumpy."

Everyone gave him face and listened carefully as he gilded the amber pillow.

Anyway, no matter what, no one will pay a high price later.

No one would be a fool to put up a show on others, only to offend others.

This ruthless man has been around for many years, and no one who is familiar with him will speak up.

Gu Wei is very likely to be against Duan Nian, but he has already made a fool of himself just now. When the bidding comes, he doesn't know if he will continue to fall into the trap.

After all, if he paid a high price but couldn't come up with the money to close the deal, Mr. Guan would definitely be angry.

If Mr. Guan gets angry, the consequences will be very serious.

Not long after, Mr. Guan finally finished introducing the amber pillow object, and then said that anyone who likes this object can bid.

The highest bidder gets it!

After hearing this for many years, I leaned back tactically and smiled professionally.

This Mr. Guan is indeed a qualified profiteer. To say that the amber pillow is his favorite collection is bullshit!

From the moment he summoned so many colleagues to come here, his impure purpose has already made the problem clear.

Unfortunately, he said that the highest bidder would get it, but no one spoke up.

Everyone looked at him one after another. After all, no one here knew the net worth of many years, but everyone knew that he was very rich.

As we all know, almost all the collections of Gao Bukun, Tan Fuying, Shen Youmin, Yin Zhilan and others were wiped out over many years.

It can be said that in the past six to five years, one person has supported more than half of the entire antique market in Beijing for many years.

Other than that, many people think they are no match for people like Gao Bukun, so they dare not speak.

Even people who are arrogant and think they have some assets don't dare to speak now.

As the saying goes, a person's name is like a tree's shadow. Han Li, a new antique player who has been emerging for more than a year, is indeed too crazy.

The scene was quiet, no one said a word.

Mr. Guan was immediately furious, but on the surface he observed calmly and remained calm.

"What are you doing after everyone has finished reading?"

After seeing people staring at me for many years, I couldn’t help but laugh and said:

"The old man has already spoken. If everyone has the idea of ​​collecting amber pillows, hurry up and buy them. The one with the highest price will get it."

Although it was just a repeated sentence, there was nothing unusual about the tone.

However, everyone said modestly:

"Comrade Han is here, we don't dare to raise a price."

"Yes, who dares to do anything in front of Comrade Han? It's more money than anything else?"

"Yes, yes, Comrade Han should hurry up and make an offer so that we can see the world."

Even Gu Wei was a little dumbfounded at this time.

He had overestimated his fame for many years, but he did not expect that his reputation in the hearts of many experts for many years would be so high.

Before they even uttered a word, they had already shocked everyone.

You know, among the antique players present, which one is not a wealthy owner?
Fortunately, no one dared to speak, so Gu Wei, who had some thoughts in his mind, was even more afraid to say anything at this moment.

Nuan Nian smiled slightly, glanced at everyone, then glanced at Gu Wei with a half-smile, then looked at Mr. Guan and said:

"Old man, everyone is giving me face. Do you think I should quote now, or should I wait for them to quote before I quote?"

The latter took a deep breath, forced out a passable smile, and said magnanimously:

"It doesn't matter, you can quote whenever you like."

Even though he wished that he could shut up for many years, or rather fill his head with water, say some arrogant words, and then fight fiercely for the amber pillow.

But he had to admit that he was really awesome for many years.

Relying on money, he was able to impress his peers and did not dare to bid on the same stage with him.

"In this case, then I will bid?"

For many years, this has been a typical example of getting a good deal but still doing well. Everyone denounced him and at the same time, some were curious about his price.

He stretched out his hand, raised a finger, and directly said a price that made everyone take a deep breath.

A large yellow croaker and ten thousand dollars.

This is definitely a very, very high price.

You know, today's antiques are not valuable, and many high-quality antiques only cost around a hundred dollars.

Moreover, many people will not spend hundreds of dollars to buy antiques.

After all, one thing needs to be clear. There are indeed many high-paid people in Beijing, but those groups with high wages only have a monthly salary of one to two hundred to two to three hundred.

Not many people use half a month's salary or a month's salary to buy antiques.

Besides, those collectors are not fools. When they buy and sell, they definitely don't accept RMB.

At the level of fine collections, unless everyone is so hungry like Guan Hongkun, Tong Haiquan, Jin Mingjia, Luo Qixing and others, they will take out family antiques in exchange for food.

Otherwise, everyone will cover it in their hands and not take action easily.

Just like Mr. Guan now, he also sensed that the Siberian cold wind was coming and the weather was cold, so he sold some antiques and money in his hand. If something happened, he could get out faster.

Therefore, when making transactions, clear notes will be made, requiring settlement in gold or foreign currency.

As we all know, at this time in January [-], whether it was gold or foreign currency, the capital was in very short supply.

There are foreign currencies such as US dollars, pounds, and rubles circulating on the black market, but the quantities in circulation are not large.

Otherwise, Mr. Guan would just use the RMB to scan the black market for goods.Taking the road of selling antiques for money has not provided many more options for many years.

It should be understood that the price of foreign currency or gold on the black market is very high.

If you don’t want to be ripped off, you can only look for alternatives like this for many years.

Mr. Guan is a greedy person and doesn't want to sell the antiques in his hands at a low price, so he makes such a big show of it.

After hearing the words of many years, Mr. Guan suddenly took a breath.

He knew he was rich for many years, but he didn't expect to be so rich.

An amber pillow is just a pillow from 2000 years ago.

Although it can be used as medicine, who would actually crush a lake pillow and use it as medicine?
Isn't this a fool!

Therefore, it has almost no medicinal value and is only of antique value.

The other melon-eating crowds who were watching all watched in shock for many years.

Gu Wei didn't even dare to let go of anything.

How dare he bid?
The price he had been shouting for many years ago was more than ten times his worth.

If he dares to raise the price, Mr. Guan will definitely be a sand man!

After all, it has been emphasized for many years that he will not bargain. If Gu Wei fails to follow up after raising the price for many years, he will quit directly.

And Gu Wei had no money at all, so the bidding almost failed.

Therefore, it is really possible that Mr. Guan will kill Gu Wei to vent his anger.

"make a deal!"

Mr. Guan didn't hesitate and agreed directly.

He would be a fool if he didn't agree to such a high price.

After hearing this for many years, he smiled confidently and said a few words of humility, then went directly to the next room, took the money from his backpack, and completed the transaction.

He made an excuse to go out, and he came back less than a minute later.

The reason why it was so fast must be that there were many people living near the courtyard for many years.

This is the illusion he gave to Mr. Guan and others.

An illusion that he was nearby, an illusion that made everyone avoid him.

If someone really messed up and took action against him, I wouldn't want to waste time on this for many years.

Just like the Jin Ye he met before, he made many years angry to death. He also needs to confirm a few times before leaving with others in the future.

Seeing that he had come back many years ago, Mr. Guan smiled again and said:

"Comrade Han, I just heard that you went to see a dragon bed with someone. Did you gain anything?"

"Unlucky, old man, let's talk about your collection."

I shook my head for many years and did not continue the topic.

Seeing this, Mr. Guan didn't pay attention. Instead, he smiled and asked everyone to move to other places.

Everyone is very curious about Mr. Guan's selling off.

As a result, everyone came in through the hanging flower door and went straight to the bedroom of the north master.

After pushing the door open and entering, everyone looked at a bed and smelled the fragrance.

"Is this a dragon bed?"

Gu Wei asked in silence, staring at the bed in front of him dumbfounded.

But no one responded to him, because everyone looked at the bed in front of them in surprise.

And there was an unexpected expression on many years' face.

Not long ago, he left with that Jin Tong and wanted to see the dragon bed.

In the end, I saw the real dragon bed in Mr. Guan's place.

Moreover, the dragon bed in front of me is made of agarwood, which looks extraordinary.

The rich fragrance that hits your nostrils is refreshing, and it is really something you will never tire of.

However, the scent faded quickly.

After all, there were so many people, so they were quickly sucked away.

If it were just early in the morning when the door was opened, the fragrance would probably be even stronger.

It's about five o'clock in the morning now, so the fragrance is quite strong.

However, whether it should be said or not, Mr. Guan is still quite courageous.

You actually put the dragon bed in the master bedroom. Are you not afraid of being inspected suddenly?

Of course, this is Mr. Guan's freedom. He probably has some strong backing or a way to hide it.

Or maybe this dragon bed was actually moved here recently.

"Yes, this is a dragon bed."

Mr. Guan explained with a smile:

"Guess how many kilograms of agarwood was used in this dragon bed?"

He was also a bit arrogant, but everyone was still happy to cooperate.

The agarwood dragon bed, the eight pillars on the bed and the top of the bed are about two to three meters high.

The carvings on it are all dragons, with five or four claws, lifelike, just like a real dragon.

Needless to say, these carvings alone are priceless treasures.

Not to mention that this is a dragon bed carved from agarwood, which is absolutely priceless.

I watched it calmly for many years, secretly guessing in my heart, how many dragon-shaped white mist can this thing have?

Since the dragon-shaped jade pendant and amber pillow, he has become more curious about antiques.

It seems that not only the reputation of the previous owner of the antique, but also the value of the antique itself and the length of time the antique has been in contact with its owner have a lot to do with it.

Similar to a pillow, an object like a dragon bed must have been in contact with its owner for about the same amount of time.

However, looking at the dragon bed in front of us, such fine and gorgeous carvings are probably from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

After all, the Ming and Qing Dynasties were the peak period of the development of feudal society. The commodity economy was unprecedentedly prosperous, culture and art were colorful, and traditional wood carving art also reached its peak during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Therefore, the dragon bed is unlikely to be a product before the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

That means it's only a few hundred years old, and in that regard, it has huge shortcomings.

However, if this dragon bed is a bed where several emperors of a dynasty often sleep, then an unexpected situation is likely to occur, but not necessarily.

"Two thousand catties!"

"Three hundred catties!"

"One and a half tons!"

Everyone speculated about the weight of the dragon bed, but they still didn't say anything for many years, but listened carefully to Mr. Guan's introduction.

With three tons of agarwood, the weight of this dragon bed is absolutely extraordinary.

Moreover, it was still a dragon bed from the Kangxi period, but Kangxi had not slept on this thing many times since paying tribute.

On the contrary, the subsequent emperor often slept on it.

Of course, how could an emperor only have one dragon bed?

Especially Emperor Qianlong, he has always been interested in luxurious and luxurious things. Calligraphy, painting, porcelain, clocks, etc. are all his favorite things.

Therefore, he was extremely particular about the decoration and furnishings of his palace.

Emperor Qianlong likes to sleep on a slightly harder bed. Of course, this bed cannot be just "hard", so his dragon bed is a small-leaf red sandalwood bed, and the top is specially covered with rushes as a mattress.

Why lay rushes?

According to traditional Chinese medicine, this is a medicinal herb that has the effect of lowering heart fire and regulating qi and blood.

In addition, this grass is also very soft and elastic, making it a natural mattress.

People sleep on it, it is soft and comfortable, and it can also achieve the effect of keeping fit. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Mr. Guan talked eloquently, and those who didn't know thought he was the old eunuch back then. Otherwise, how could he know so many unofficial histories?
"Old man, since the emperor prefers beds made of rosewood, what about this agarwood?"

Someone asked, and Mr. Guan smiled confidently and explained.

Agarwood is also a traditional Chinese medicine, which has the functions of promoting qi and relieving pain, lowering and regulating the central nervous system, warming the kidneys and absorbing qi.

And the agarwood at that time weighed six tons, which was used to build the agarwood dragon bed in front of us.

Three tons were used to make the dragon bed, so the remaining scraps were turned into small items such as desks, cabinets, and small cabinets.

Therefore, occasionally, the emperor would sleep on this agarwood dragon bed.

There is also a porcelain pillow on the dragon bed in front of me, which looks a bit special.

I haven't appreciated this porcelain pillow for many years, but it was Emperor Qianlong's favorite.

"This pillow is the Jun kiln azure glaze purple spot Ruyi pillow used by Emperor Qianlong. Unfortunately, he also had another enamel pillow, which I have not collected." (End of this chapter)
