super sensory appraiser

The four 20-inch wheels of the Land Rover Range Rover are wrapped with thick tires and rotate rapidly. The tall and mighty body drives on the city road like a beast on land.

Under the control of Fang Feiyang, this full-size SUV roams flexibly and changeably in the traffic flow of the city without looking clumsy at all.

"squeak..."

With a brake, Fang Feiyang parked the Range Rover in a parking space on the side of the road.

At this moment, he came to this familiar Confucian Temple antique market again.

Today is Friday, not the weekend.

So today there were no scattered antique dealers here to set up stalls, so Fang Feiyang had to take a look around the physical store with an agitated heart.

There are more than 70 shops in this antique market, about one-third of the shops Fang Feiyang has visited, and he is basically familiar with some of the main products in their shops, so at this moment, which shops Fang Feiyang wants to go to that he has never visited before Taobao, to see what kind of luck today.

Along the way, Fang Feiyang passed by Jibaoxuan Antique Store, but he found that the gate of Jibaoxuan was closed, and a notice of "Closed for Rest" had been pasted on the door. It seemed that Wang Shubin was dealing with the follow-up matters of the transfer of the store , in the near future, this shop will be his property.

With a small sense of accomplishment, Fang Feiyang swaggered past one antique shop after another.

In the following time, he aimed at those shops that he hadn't visited, and walked almost one by one. He also carefully used his ability to sense out of thin air, trying to find abandoned treasures in these antique shops.

It's a pity that the boss who can open a shop here is not a businessman who is a thief. He either hired an experienced treasure appraiser with a high salary to sit in the shop, or the shop owner himself is a player who is good at this. It is more difficult to find low-priced leaks in these regular shops.

In fact, there are also good things in these shops, including high-quality goods, and even a treasure of the shop, but the shop owner didn't bother to show it to Fang Feiyang, and only threw out a few exquisite picture albums to let the little Young people gain knowledge, take a look.

A collector in the antique circle once joked that the probability of being able to pick up a leak in a regular store in the Sioux City antique market is as small as winning a special prize in a lottery.

Because Sioux City has historically been a treasure land of antique wealth and culture, the people here have a long history of antique collection, which complements the thousand-year-old culture of Suzhou and Suzhou.

This has also made Sioux City never short of antiques, never short of antique collectors, and never short of sharp-eyed antique dealers.

Fang Feiyang wandered around for nearly two hours at a stretch. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Kong had a special ability, but he couldn't use it. He was depressed.

As soon as his confidence dropped, the man lost his energy. As he was walking, Fang Feiyang passed by a corner shop.

There is a signboard of "Hanyuan Pavilion" on the door of this shop, with yellow letters on a black background, written in the official script style, rough and steady, solid and compact, bringing a strong classical charm to people, and people can't help but want to explore Check out the feeling.

Stepping over the threshold, you will be faced with a glass booth about one meter high, on which is placed an exquisite Ruyi carved entirely of bluestone and white jade, implying the meaning of blessing all the best.

At this point in time, there were no customers in the store, and it seemed deserted.

There was a thin old man sitting at the counter, I don't know if it was the shopkeeper or the shop owner, he was looking down at the newspaper. When the old man heard someone coming in, he looked up at Fang Feiyang, and then continued to read his newspaper.

It is estimated that Fang Feiyang's young face has become the kind of shopkeeper who has no money to buy in his eyes.

Fang Feiyang didn't care, put his hands in his jacket pockets naturally, and looked at the items sold in this "Hanyuan Pavilion" with great interest.

This store is mainly engaged in antique jewelry. In the special glass counter, there are gorgeous displays of wooden hairpins, jade hairpins, nobiles, bracelets, jade earrings, jewelry boxes from the Republic of China, European-style antique jewelry, and some unnamed royal headgear.

At the same time, there are also carved agate ornaments, pearls, corals and other colored gemstone ornaments on the shelves inside, which are magnificent and pleasing to the eye.

At this time, Fang Feiyang saw a silver bracelet lying quietly on the red flannel in the glass counter. This silver bracelet immediately attracted Fang Feiyang's attention.

It's not because it's a rare treasure, nor is it offending Fang Feiyang's super sensory ability, but because this bracelet arouses Fang Feiyang's childhood memories.

Fang Feiyang remembers this kind of silver bracelet. His family once had a pair, which was his mother’s dowry. The diameter of the old silver bracelet was about 6 cm, and the auspicious pattern of blooming flowers and wealth was printed on the front. The ends are spherical, like two small garlic heads, which can adjust the degree of closure.

This style of silver bracelets is very common in rural areas, and the older generation of silversmiths can make them. Fang Feiyang remembers that he was very naughty when he was in elementary school. He dug out the pair of silver bracelets owned by his mother to play, but lost one of them. He was often beaten by his father, and his mother moaned and sighed for several days.

Today, in this antique jewelry store, I accidentally found a silver bracelet for sale, which was almost the same size and style as my mother's.

"Boss, show me this silver bracelet," Fang Feiyang called out to the shop owner.

He was going to take a closer look at this bracelet, and if there was no problem with the quality, he was going to buy it and give it to his mother when he got home next time, so as to make up for the mischievous things he did when he was a child.

The thin old man at the counter heard the shout, put down the newspaper in his hand, followed the position of Fang Feiyang's fingers, took out this silver bracelet from the counter, and placed it on the counter.

"How much is this bracelet?" Fang Feiyang asked.

"2000 yuan," the shop owner blurted out and quoted a price.

"It's expensive, I want 1500,"

Fang Feiyang looked at this silver bracelet a few times. It is in good condition, and the pattern on the front is still very clear, but the price quoted by the shop owner is on the high side. This kind of silver jewelry was very popular among ordinary people in the 70s and 1500s. Referring to the current price of silver in the market, and considering its commemorative significance, the value is about [-] yuan.

"Young man, if you sincerely want to take it, you can give it 1700. If it is lower than this price, you can't negotiate," the shop owner obviously didn't want to get too entangled in the question of one or two hundred.

Fang Feiyang pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, it's only 1700 yuan, please wrap it in a box, and I'll give it away,"

"No problem, I'll wrap you up nicely,"

Seeing that the business was completed, the shop owner also showed a smile on his face. He opened the cabinet door at the bottom of the shelf, found several simple square wooden boxes from inside, and continued to talk to Feiyang:

"Come on, which box do you like, pick one,"

Fang Feiyang took a box casually and turned it around in his hand. This kind of square wooden box that looks like it has engraved patterns on the surface, a blessing pattern, and a small copper buckle is actually an antique product on the assembly line of a modern factory. The patterns are all machine engraved, mass-produced, and the cost price is only a few dollars.

Anyway, these wooden boxes all look similar, and they have a special charm as a gift box. Fang Feiyang wanted to pick one at random and just put the silver bracelet in it.

At this time, he noticed that there was a rectangular box at the bottom of the store's shelf, which was brought to the edge of the cabinet door by the store owner just now when he was picking things up.

The shape of this box is a bit worn out, with hollow copper sheets inlaid on the four corners of the surface, and the color and texture of the wood looks very elegant and elegant.

"Boss, show me the box next to your cabinet door, it's the long one..." Fang Feiyang said with a smile.

"You said this box, hehe, young man, you have a good eye... But this jewelry box can't be given to you. It's an antique box. I'll wipe it clean and show you."

The shop owner bent down and took out the rectangular box from the cabinet on the bottom floor while talking, picked up a piece of cotton cloth from the shelf, and wiped the wooden box gently.

As far as Fang Feiyang could see, the shop owner was holding this rectangular antique box less than three meters away from Fang Feiyang.

Fang Feiyang involuntarily touched the Leiyin stone bead chain on his wrist, and with a thought, he fixed his eyes on the antique box. He skillfully manipulated the out-of-the-air sensing ability to find out.

"Hey, there is a situation, this box is not simple..."
