Live broadcast of magnet fishing, the police called me to file a report

Chapter 20 The bronze mirror that reflects the pattern on the back, is it real or fake?

? ? ? ? ? ?
  Ye Haoran had a black streak on his head. This was a cultural relic after all. Although it wasn't worth much, he couldn't just smash it!

"are you serious?"

Ye Haoran looked at Xu Mei, dumbfounded.

"Isn't it okay?"

Xu Mei looked at Ye Haoran with a pure face, not seeing anything wrong with her proposal at all.

It's already broken anyway. What else can we do if we don't break it open?
  "Take it first! We'll talk about it later when we get back."

Ye Haoran handed the mechanism box to Xu Mei. The mechanism box was not a valuable cultural relic anyway, so the cultural relics department probably wouldn't care if they saw it.

He planned to study it slowly by himself, and wait until he opened it and found any important treasures.

Of course, if the cultural relics department takes the initiative to come over.

He won't insist on keeping it.

Studio.

"It's broken, this kid really caught the treasure!"

"You actually caught something good? It's unscientific, this is so unscientific!"

"Brothers, don't panic, it's just a box, we don't know what's inside!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, I bet there's nothing good in it!"

"This box looks very ordinary at first glance. It may belong to someone's child's toy."

……

Seeing Ye Haoran catch the weird-looking big box, many viewers in the live broadcast room became excited and curious about the contents of the box.

It's just that the appearance of the mechanism box is really poor. Most people are just making fun of it and don't think it can really produce any treasures.

"it is good!"

Xu Mei reached out to take the mechanism box in Ye Haoran's hand.

As a result, she overestimated her own strength. The weight of the mechanism box was so heavy that even Ye Haoran had difficulty holding it.

Caught off guard, Xu Mei failed to grab the mechanism box and smashed it to the ground.

boom!
  Ye Haoran looked at Xu Mei's little hands and fell into a sluggish state.

After a while, he finally came back to his senses, looked up into Xu Mei's eyes, raised his eyebrows and said, "You didn't do it on purpose, right?"

Xu Mei explained in a panic: "I didn't expect it to be so heavy, so... I didn't catch it. I really didn't mean it."

She and Ye Haoran looked at each other, their eyes full of self-blame.

This matter was indeed her mistake. The damage was severe. I don’t know if it was damaged or not.

This is done!

Ye Haoran sighed secretly and didn't take it too seriously. It was already broken. If something went wrong after falling, it would be just like that.

He himself had no intention of selling this thing for money.

After the research is completed, the contents will be taken out. If the cultural relics department does not want them, they will probably be thrown away as garbage in the end.

He squatted down and checked the condition of the mechanism box.

If it was smashed, it wouldn't be too bad in itself.

He was already quite curious about what was inside, and it was just the right time to see what it was.

At this moment, Ye Haoran's mood was a bit like opening a blind box with a high price, with some expectations and some apprehensions.

Although he felt that there were good things in it, it was hard to say whether it would actually turn out as he imagined.

After the impact, one corner of the mechanism box was dented, and a gap appeared on it.

Looking inside from the outside, you can vaguely see some of the things inside.

Mirror?

Ye Haoran didn't rush to smash open the mechanism box, and observed the contents inside with the sunlight in the sky.

On the one hand, I am curious about what is inside.

On the other hand, I want to judge how to operate next based on the situation inside. However, the situation inside made Ye Haoran a little disappointed.

In his mind, things like mirrors didn't seem to be very valuable, and they were incomparable to famous people's calligraphy and paintings, and porcelain.

Xu Mei also came close to Ye Haoran and looked inside curiously.

"It looks like an antique mirror,"

After a pause, Xu Mei asked doubtfully: "Why did the owner of the machine box put a mirror in it?"

Is there something like a mechanism box that contains treasures or secrets?
  Mirrors belong to this category of daily necessities and do not conform to any of them.

Logically speaking, this should not happen.

Ye Haoran didn't say a word, he also wanted to know the reason.

Could it be that this mirror is a very precious treasure?
  A guess emerged in Ye Haoran's mind. Compared with the mirror hiding some great secret, the mirror itself is undoubtedly more likely to be valuable.

With doubts, Ye Haoran simply broke the jar and began to violently destroy the mechanism box.

The oxidation of the mechanism box is indeed very serious, almost completely rusting, and the original iron box is extremely fragile.

After a while, the mirror inside was taken out.

It was a bronze mirror with an extremely smooth surface and complex patterns engraved on the back.

[Name: Han Dynasty Translucent Mirror]

[Owner: Zhang Xianzhi. 】

[Introduction: As long as the mirror processed by special techniques faces sunlight or other light sources, the pattern or inscription on the back of the mirror will be reflected on the wall opposite the mirror, and the light source will seem to penetrate the mirror body. 】

[Price: immeasurable. 】

After seeing the price given by the appraisal technique, Ye Haoran was stunned for a moment.

What the hell is immeasurable?

Isn't it a priceless treasure?
  Thinking about it, Ye Haoran felt that it was impossible. If the so-called priceless treasure were to be auctioned, the price would still be the same in the end.

It’s just expensive!

"It may be that the quantity of this item is very small and it has never been sold, so there is no standard price."

After thinking for a while, a guess came to his mind.

It is able to reflect the pattern on the back on other objects, which sounds very strange at first sight. It is the only thing in the world that is possible.

Since it is a unique thing, it is naturally difficult to give an accurate price.

However, this is his guess, and it still needs to be verified.

"This mirror doesn't look like a treasure!"

Xu Mei's thoughts were similar to Ye Haoran's before. She felt that the mirror was a very precious thing, with a large number of gems inlaid on it.

The result was not what she imagined.

The workmanship of the mirror is indeed quite impressive.

But that was it.

I can’t really say how good this kind of mirror is in period films.

"What do you know, this is a treasure!"

Ye Haoran cast a look of disdain at Xu Mei. It was incredible to think that he could actually make a mirror that reflected the pattern on the back using ancient craftsmanship.

He is still a college student after all, and he can't figure out what the principle is.

Copper is not a light-transmitting material, so light does not penetrate the mirror.

It is obviously reflected on the mirror, but it can project the pattern on the back.

He even wondered if there was something wrong with the identification technique. Otherwise, how could such a thing be possible?

"baby?"

Xu Mei's eyes kept looking at Ye Haoran's body, her eyes full of doubts.
