Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?

"Teacher Cui, have you seen this thing before?"

Cui Liding took a look: "I've seen it before, Yousai, it should be an object from the Yuan Dynasty!"

Dare to sell one from the Yuan Dynasty for 20 million?

Li Ding'an pointed to the label.

"Oh, are you talking about the price? Mr. Wen did mention it, saying that it was collected from local people who were collecting items in the early years. It was most likely from the Han Dynasty Tombs in Mancheng. That's why it was sold so expensive, but there is no way to verify it..."

After a pause, Cui Li looked at Li Ding'an and said, "Teacher Li, is there anything you can do?"

Li Ding'an was startled for a moment: Do I have a solution?

Can you show me the system and take a look?

But other than that, if you only rely on your eyesight, it is really difficult to prove that this thing came from the Han Dynasty. At most, you can conclude that it was buried for more than a thousand years.

A thousand years ago, the Song Dynasty adhered to the principle that "the scholar-bureaucrats and the emperor share the world", and the atmosphere was relatively open. Regardless of the official class, even merchants and their like could "act with jade."

Further ahead is the Five Dynasties, when rituals and music collapsed, and further ahead is the Tang Dynasty, when "jade burial" was most popular. From Zhenguan to Yuanhe, the emperor repeatedly issued decrees strictly prohibiting private burials, but the ban continued.

In the end, he had no choice but to issue an edict: Under the four commoners, no stone coffin should be used in any burial, and no gold, jewels, or jade should be included in any burial. The so-called four people are scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants, and the following are all of low status...

In other words: Unless you can prove that this thing really comes from a Han tomb, it can be related to the "Jade Burial of Lords". Otherwise, let alone 20 million, 2 million is too expensive.

Of course, there is still a way: compare the elements with jades of the same material from the same period and from the same tomb.

They also come from Dou Wan's tomb. They were unearthed only two years apart, so they are always accurate.

But don’t think about it.

Because the test is done, it is equivalent to telling the relevant departments: This is a jade from the Han Dynasty or a jade from the burial of princes. It also coincides with the time when the jade was unearthed in the HEB Provincial Museum. Come and confiscate it as soon as possible.

It’s more than 20 million, why don’t I donate it directly?

Li Ding'an sighed, put the jade box back to its original place, and then looked around.

"Teacher Li, what are you looking for?"

"I'm not looking for anything, just looking around!"

Responding casually, he took a few steps forward and stood in front of another showcase.

A small standing bronze figure was slapped in the face. Its body was densely covered with pockmark-like dots.

Isn't this an acupuncture point?

It is recorded in the data that acupuncture instruments of the Han Dynasty such as silver needles, golden needles, and Zhihu hooks were unearthed from Dou Wan’s tomb. Wouldn't it be more perfect if we added this bronze vase?

Next to it are: more than forty golden beans, round and golden, each with a cicada pattern carved on it.

"Huainanzi": A cicada casts off a snake and swims in Taiqing. It moves alone and suddenly falls into the underworld. Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, the golden beans with cicada patterns had only one meaning: longevity.

Many have been unearthed: from the tomb of Liu Wu, King of Liang Xiao in Yongcheng, Henan, from the tomb of Liu Wu, King of Chu in Xuzhou, Jiangsu, and from the tomb of Cao Teng, Cao Cao's grandfather.

There are also fifty-two in the tomb of King Jing in Zhongshan. Based on this, Dean Guo concluded that Liu Sheng lived to be fifty-two years old, not the fifty-three years old recorded by Sima Qian.

But when the Douwan Underground Palace was excavated, not a single one was found.

Opening the cabinet door and touching the box containing the golden beans, Li Ding'an sighed: Is this really digging up Dou Wan's tomb?

There are seclusions and golden beans, but what else is there?

Li Ding'an's feet were filled with wind.

One, two, three...

After taking a few steps, Li Ding'an stopped again.

A crystal cabinet is placed in the center of the hall, with hundreds of jade pieces placed in it.

The jade piece is slender, about half a finger, about as wide as a chopstick, and is ground very thin, less than three millimeters.

Judging from the texture and color, it is no different from that jade plug.

There are even Yousai. It is normal to have a few pieces of jade, but what is abnormal is that there are many small round holes drilled in the corners and edges of the jade pieces.

This can't be worn around the neck, right?

Unable to control his mood any longer, Li Ding'an opened the cabinet door and picked up a piece.

Dou Wan's gold and jade garment (part): Gloves!

Ha ha? Li Dingan was in a daze for a moment.

Around 2000 years ago, a loan fraud case occurred in the capital that shocked the whole country: a real estate businessman made two pieces of jade clothes with golden threads and jade clothes from Liu Sheng and Dou Wan, the treasures of the Hebei Museum, and then asked experts to appraise and estimate the price. 1.4 billion, and then took out a mortgage loan from the bank for 900 million.

The five top experts include the predecessor of Dean Wu Xiang Wu, director of the Jade Appraisal Center of Beijing University, the predecessor of Dean Lu Benzhi, the former deputy director of the Palace Museum, and the predecessor of He Anbang, secretary-general of the China Collectors Association, and another One is the Secretary General of the Gemological Association.

The last one is a scholar-type leader: deputy director of the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee.

The point is not this, the point is 2.4 billion: Five experts at the time said that they just made a mistake. If the thing is real, this estimate is already very, very conservative.

The court accepted it, one has died of illness, and the remaining four experts are not guilty...

2.4 billion in two thousand years?

And the price is still estimated under the premise of extremely conservative.

what about now?

Even if it's just a part...

Li Ding'an exhaled forcefully: "Teacher Cui, I remember that the gold jade clothes in Liu Sheng's tomb were restored with the help of the Forbidden City?"

"Yes, it took three years from 91 to 94 to complete."

"Is there any shortage?"

"Of course there is nothing missing, but Liu Sheng's jade clothes have an extra jade head and two gloves. Several teachers at the time concluded that because Liu Sheng was good at martial arts, the jade clothes were made according to the armor. Dou Wan was a woman, so she naturally didn't need... …”

Li Ding settled for a moment and didn't know what to say.

He has never seen the actual object, but he has seen photos: the entire jade garment, the jade head and the two gloves are the most complex in structure.

The jade head is a bit better. You don't need to worry about the ears and eyes. You only need to weave the width of the nose and mouth for the dead to breathe after resurrection.

But the two gloves need to show the full width of the five fingers. The jade pieces are short and narrow, no different from those in the cabinet.

The most important thing is that there are too many places to connect: back then, it took three years to put together two pieces of jade clothing, but it took experts nearly a year to put together just two gloves.

Correspondingly, the most gold wires are needed to connect the jade pieces.

In the 1960s, jade was not very valuable. Li Ding'an would have to pay for it, and he would definitely get the part with the most gold thread.

After being stunned for a long time, Li Ding'an shook his head as if laughing: "Teacher Cui, look, if you put these jade pieces together, do they look like gloves?"

"It does look like it, but is it fake?"

"Has anyone identified it?"

"Yes, Mr. Wen asked the Jinshi teacher in the hospital to look at it, and also asked well-known jade experts, and they all concluded that it was a later imitation...Teacher Li, look!"

Cui Li took out a piece and pointed to the traces of smoke on it: "It was roasted with fire, including the lines on it, which are also newly scratched!"

Li Ding'an was stunned for a moment: Did he make it old again?

No, when did the system go wrong?

So what's going on?

After thinking for a moment, Li Ding'an suddenly realized: After being buried for two thousand years, the gold thread and the jade pieces had rusted together. If he wanted to remove the gold thread, he would either smash the jade pieces into powder or burn them with fire.

It does not mean burning the gold, but using the principle of thermal expansion and contraction to loosen the jade pieces and gold threads, and then cut them with scissors and the like.

This is how marks and scratches are left.

Let’s look at the price: six million?

Although it was just two gloves, in terms of value, they were definitely more than the ones he picked up in Nanchang combined...

"dong dong dong dong..."

His heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and Li Ding'an licked his lips: Do you want to buy it? (End of chapter)
