Jin Yutong

Chapter 241 Lampshade

Chen Ran glanced at the big box where the monk put his things, but found a strange thing. The overall shape of this thing is somewhat like the ancient Chinese football, which is the shape of Cuju. If you bring the color on it , also like the kind of rotating prismatic spherical lights in nightclubs.

Chen Ran glanced at the other things in the big box. These things were all sundries, not all antiques. There were even cigarettes and lighters, basically nothing good.Not finding anything good, Chen Ran casually took this strange thing out of the big box.

When the monk came in, he brought two underlings with him, and these two underlings were also helping the monk collect money, and the things in the big box were not very valuable, so although they saw Chen Ran surrounding the big box Watched, but didn't care.

Chen Ran put the candlestick on the conference table, and then took a look at this strange thing.After this gadget was taken out of the big box, Chen Ran discovered that there was an opening at the lower end, like a large prism-shaped ball, with a hole opened, and some paper was pasted on each side of the prism. These pieces of paper are embroidered with various patterns, and when combined together, they are a bit messy, and it is impossible to see what the patterns are.

This thing doesn't look like an old thing, but more like a modern artwork or a children's toy. The monk's big box also contains modern items such as lighters, so Chen Ran didn't pay much attention to it. , After reading it, I am ready to throw it into the big box.

"What is this? Is it a lantern?" Chen Ran was about to put something into a big box, when Wang Zhiqing's inquiry suddenly came from his ear. Wang Zhiqing came over and glanced at the thing Chen Ran was holding. , he asked casually, but he didn't pay much attention to it. After asking, he turned around and looked at the big box.

Perhaps because he didn't find anything good, he shook his head, and Wang Zhiqing turned around and picked up the candlestick that Chen Ran had photographed to observe carefully.

lantern?

Originally, Chen Ran was going to put his things into the big box, but Wang Zhiqing's words suddenly made him stunned.

Everyone observes a thing with different angles and psychology, so the observed image is also different. This is like going to school when you were a child, the teacher drew a circle on the blackboard, and then asked the children to describe what the circle looks like. Some children said It looks like a round moon, some children say it looks like the sun, some say it looks like an apple, or it looks like the moon... When Chen Ran observed this thing, at first it was placed in the corner of the big box Chen Ran didn't see the opening at the lower end of the thing, so he naturally looked like a bigger football, and when he saw the opening at the lower end, he just imagined that it was a prismatic football with an opening.

However, Wang Zhiqing's observation angle is different from Chen Ran's. Wang Zhiqing observes the whole, and when he walks over, he sees the opening at the lower end. The thing in front of him looks like a lantern in his eyes.

Chen Ran lifted this thing up and looked at it. It really looked like a lantern, but the shape was a bit weird, or more specifically, it looked like a lampshade.

lampshade?

Thinking of the lampshade, Chen Ran involuntarily looked at the candlestick he photographed, but his eyelids twitched. He was surprised to find that there was a circle of shallow oval grooves on the base of the candlestick he photographed. He didn't pay much attention to the shallow grooves in a circle at first, that is to say, it was just such a type or carving pattern at first.

But now seeing the shallow groove in this circle surprised him a lot.

Because the size and curvature of the shallow groove is almost exactly the same as the lower opening of the strange thing in his hand.

Is this thing and the candlestick a set?

Chen Ran thought about it.

Not able to think too much, he quickly released the energy aperture to detect this strange thing in his hand.

The result of the detection made him both surprised and delighted. This strange thing also has a history of more than 500 years. If this is the case, this thing is undoubtedly from the same era as the candlestick, or... two The latter is basically the same.

It was only then that Chen Ran figured out why there was nothing special about the candlestick from the candlestick. Obviously, all the secrets of the candlestick were on the lampshade.

Knowing that this strange gadget in front of him is the same set as the candlestick, Chen Ran did not combine the candlestick and lampshade rashly. After all, the lampshade does not belong to him now, so let's get the things first.

Taking a few deep breaths, Chen Ran tried his best to calm himself down. Seeing that the monk hadn't finished his work, he simply put the lampshade back into the big box, sat and waited, while sitting, While thinking about the origin of this candlestick.

At the beginning, I didn't have any clues, so naturally I couldn't see the origin of this candlestick, but now I have this lampshade, so I have a little brow, after all, there are really not many famous candlesticks in history, and in front of me This candlestick is definitely a boutique among candlesticks, it is impossible not to be famous.

Candlesticks, lampshades, stickers... When these clues were combined, Chen Ran suddenly thought of a possibility!

This possibility... If it is really the case, then it is really... a treasure!

Even with Chen Ran's current composure, when he thought of this possibility, his eyes seemed to have been immobilized, and he couldn't even blink. With a sigh of relief, he murmured: "This is really shit luck..."

In fact, this is the possibility that he, who has always regarded this candlestick as a treasure, would think of this possibility. If it were someone else, even if they knew that the candlestick and lampshade were the same set, they would not have thought of this answer.

Wang Zhiqing observed the candlestick all over again, obviously he had no idea at all, so he could only look at Chen Ran suspiciously, now was not the time to ask, he didn't say a word, put the candlestick on the conference table, and sat beside Chen Ran waiting.

On the other side of the monk, the people who took pictures were paying for things, and those who didn’t take pictures, some left directly, and some stood by and joined in the fun. Fortunately, everything has been negotiated, and those with cash Bring cash directly, if you don't bring cash, it's easy to handle, and pay directly to the bank. In such an occasion, checks will not work.

"Brother Chen, is this cloisonne copper pagoda okay?"

Zhu Feng was number one, so he was the first to get the things. After getting the things, he walked towards Chen Ran with a smile on his arms.

"Boss Zhu, there is nothing to say about Xiaoran's eyesight. This copper tower is definitely an old object with a wide open door. If you put it in an auction to promote it, it will definitely fetch millions. If you take this copper tower Tower, it can be regarded as picking up a big leak."

Before Chen Ran could speak, Wang Zhiqing answered with a smile, and he naturally guessed the eyes Chen Ran gave Zhu Fengzhang.

"In this line of work, when it comes to eyesight, the one who convinces me the most is Brother Chen..."

Hearing Wang Zhiqing's words, Zhu Feng burst into laughter immediately, looking extremely happy. After laughing, he, Chen Ran and Wang Zhiqing winked at Boss Xiong and the others, and the three of them looked at each other, all laughing.

Boss Xiong was the last one to pay. After paying the bill, he put the Tianhuang Arhat statue in a box and invited everyone to the hotel for dinner. Before leaving, he smiled and said hello to Zhu Feng: "Do you want Boss Zhu?" go together?"

"I'm not going."

Zhu Feng smiled and waved his hands.

Boss Xiong just greeted Zhu Feng politely, and he didn't care if Zhu Feng didn't go, and after a greeting, a group of people went out in a mighty way, of course, old man Huang was indispensable for such a thing, In a blink of an eye, all the people in the room left, leaving only Zhu Feng, Chen Ran, Wang Zhiqing, Liu Lei, the monk and his two subordinates.

"I said, what are you doing with such a pair of bottles?" Seeing Liu Lei carrying the pair of moon-holding bottles he collected, Wang Zhiqing laughed and cursed, stood up and helped carry them over.

Liu Lei chuckled: "Of course it's useful. To tell you the truth, the other genuine pair of moon-holding bottles is in my room."

His words immediately made Wang Zhiqing, Chen Ran, and Zhu Feng who were present all look at him in surprise.

Seeing the astonished expressions of Chen Ran and the three of them, Liu Lei laughed, a little smugly. The value of a genuine moon holding bottle like this is between 15 and 20, but a pair , Putting it on the auction, it can fetch a price of more than one million. Now he has spent 15 to buy this pair of true and false moon holding bottles. When the time comes to match the real one at home, You can make a lot of money.

"Oh, that's fine, you've made a fortune now, and I'm going to treat you to dinner later..." Wang Zhiqing smiled and punched Liu Lei.

"The money hasn't arrived yet."

Hearing Wang Zhiqing's words, Liu Lei suddenly had a bitter face, which made everyone else laugh.

And at this time, the monk finally checked the account, the monk came over to say hello to Zhu Feng, his two subordinates carried the cash boxes and put them in the big box, and then Chen Ran walked over .

"These things are small gadgets, not very valuable." Seeing Chen Ran looking at the things in the big box, one of the monk's two subordinates smiled at Chen Ran.

Chen Ran nodded, and while bending down to pick out a few handmade gadgets, he said: "These gadgets are not bad, I'll take them home for the children at home to play with." He pretended to choose two or three gadgets casually. Then he looked at the lampshade, hesitated for a moment, and then grabbed the lampshade in his hand.

"I'll pay 500 yuan to buy these things, how about it?" After choosing, Chen Ran looked at the monk's two subordinates and asked leisurely.

The two subordinates were stunned, as if they didn't expect that such a rotten thing would be wanted by someone on such an occasion. After being stunned, they looked at the monk.
