Chapter 33 Appreciating Treasures ([-])

At this time, everyone took out their belongings, except for Luo Yuwei, even Yang Wei took out a palm-sized box and put it in front of them, and Luo Feng's desk was even more full of things.

Wang Haoming took a cursory glance, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Among these objects, Yang Duo couldn't even name them, let alone appraise them. It seemed that he had to invite himself for the lunch at noon.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Shopkeeper Lu said, "Xiao Yang and Xiao Wang are both guests today, so let's let him pick one item for appraisal first, what do you think?"

"Then Mr. Yang has taken advantage of it. You can pick one at random. As long as you can distinguish the true from the fake, and roughly tell its origin and inheritance, you will pass the test."

The performance of Yang Wei at the entrance of the teahouse just now made Luo Feng feel a little displeased with him, but he was brought by shopkeeper Lu, so he wanted to show some face, so he said.

Yang Wei nodded, stood up, and began to look at the items on the table. He only knew a little about jewelry, and he also knew a little about precious minerals such as emeralds, but his level of appreciation of pure antiques was It is not much different from Wang Haoming.

It's just that since we're here, and there's a beautiful woman sitting next to us, we can't say that we have to show off, at least we can't make a fool of ourselves on this occasion, so Yang Wei looked very carefully, and he wanted to see if he could find items related to jewelry. Come.

"Ok?"

Almost turning around the square table, Yang Wei, who couldn't find a suitable item, suddenly saw a bright red bracelet in the pile of items in front of Luo Feng. Polished with coral stone or jade.

Yang Wei was secretly happy. In order to stand out in the family, he put in a lot of effort to learn how to appreciate jewellery, and he also handled a lot of precious jewellery. As long as this bracelet is made of coral stone, he should be able to tell it apart.

After finding the item he was good at, Yang Wei was determined. He returned to the chair and said, "Boss Luo, how about I just appraise your bracelet?"

"Yes." Luo Feng picked up the bracelet in front of him and handed it to Yang Wei.

Yang Wei took the bracelet and observed it carefully. This string of bracelets is made up of dozens of round beads connected in series. The appearance is smooth and the color is quite red, but there are some shallow and deep. texture.

At this time, Yang Wei was sure that this was indeed a bracelet polished by red coral. After thinking for a while, he took out a thumb-sized magnifying glass from his suit pocket and looked at the bracelet again.

He found that within the red color of the bead, there were vaguely black dots and spots, and there were some small black holes like bubbles.

Wang Haoming was sitting a little far away from Yang Wei, so he didn't see clearly what kind of bracelet it was, but looking at the few people present, he estimated in his heart that Yang Wei was on the same level as himself in terms of appreciation level.

But when he saw Yang Wei took out the magnifying glass, Wang Haoming felt a little guilty. What is professionalism with this thing with him?This is professionalism!

But Wang Haoming didn't know that Yang Wei's magnifying glass was used to cover up the appearance when he went to inspect the company's jewelry store.

In front of the beautiful subordinates, pretending to appreciate jewelry with a magnifying glass, and then listening to the flattering sounds of the beautiful subordinates, it can satisfy a man's vanity. .

At this time, Yang Wei was a little hesitant. According to the theoretical knowledge and observations he had read in the books, the characteristics of the material of this bracelet were completely consistent with the red coral.

What's more, this Luo Feng in front of him is also a person with status, so he wouldn't collect a cheap fake.

And it was impossible for him to know that he would choose this bracelet for appraisal, and bought a fake one. Thinking of this, Yang Wei raised his head and glanced at Luo Feng, only to find that Luo Feng was also staring at him, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes. smile.

Yang Wei strengthened his judgment, put the magnifying glass back into his pocket, and said: "Boss Luo's bracelet is made of pure red coral, with a fine slanted texture and some naturally formed blemishes. The overall luster is gorgeous, warm and lovely. Human, crystal clear, the material used is top magenta coral, and wearing close to the body can also promote blood circulation.”

"In recent years, due to over-exploitation of the sea, red corals have become increasingly rare. The market is calculating its value in grams. Like Boss Luo's, the value should be between [-] and [-]."

To say that Yang Wei's eloquence is really good, he not only appraised this string of red coral bracelets, but also talked about the benefits of wearing red coral bracelets. Several people around him felt that this jewelry owner was indeed of some level.

Li Zhi was even more confused. He didn't know that Yang Wei identified the bracelet as genuine until Yang Wei finally told the price.

"Hey, my brother looks like he's about to lose, but I don't know if this card can be used after eating in Tiandu."

Li Zhi also had no confidence in Wang Haoming at this time, he wiped the card in his pocket and muttered to himself.

After Yang Wei finished the appraisal, he returned the bracelet.

Luo Feng took the bracelet and smiled, and when he was about to speak, Mr. Lu spoke first, "Xiao Luo, this thing is yours, don't tell the truth, after everyone has identified an object, let's talk about it together." assessment."

Luo Feng nodded noncommittally, and the smile on his face remained unchanged. In Yang Wei's view, Luo Feng's smile should be an affirmation of what he said just now.

Feeling more complacent, she couldn't help looking at Luo Yuwei who was sitting opposite.

However, she found that Luo Yuwei had asked for the bracelet from Luo Feng, and she was also looking at it carefully. She must have been moved by her description just now, so she said: "If Miss Luo is interested in this kind of jewelry, you can I can introduce it to you when I have time."

Luo Yuwei raised her head when she heard the words, put down the bracelet, glanced at Yang Wei, showed a rare smile on her face, and said, "Thank you Mr. Yang for your kindness. I believe that with Mr. Yang's level of appreciation, your company will definitely be rich and prosperous. developed."

Luo Yuwei was usually as cold as ice, but when she smiled, all the men in the room felt like spring was returning to the earth and the sun was shining brightly.

The momentary amorous feelings that Luo Yuwei showed made Yang Wei, who was facing her, even more excited, and he looked like a pig brother.

"Okay, now it's Xiao Wang's turn." Mr. Lu was not influenced by Luo Yuwei, and continued the treasure appraisal activity.

Wang Haoming also stood up when he heard the words. In fact, when Yang Wei was appraising the bracelet, he began to look at the items on the square table.

After observing for a long time, it seems that only the things brought by shopkeeper Lu, I can distinguish one or two.

To be honest, asking Wang Haoming to appraise treasures is purely to drive ducks to the shelves, which is a bit difficult for others.

Wang Haoming has been in contact with the owner of his shop for a long time. Knowing the business of antiques, it doesn't mean that he can pick up his arms and go to battle by reading a few books and some theoretical knowledge. This requires daily accumulation and a lot of contact with real objects.

But even so, it will often be fooled.

As the saying goes, "Antiques are golden and prosperous in troubled times". Whenever antiques become popular, there will be more fakes and fakes.

In modern China, the early years of the Republic of China would be regarded as a prosperous period of antiques. At that time, Sun Dianying, Zhang Zongchang and other warlords successively robbed the tombs of Kangxi, Qianlong and Empress Dowager Cixi, and unearthed a large number of precious cultural relics.

Coupled with the fact that Puyi and others guarded against themselves, many rare treasures flowed out from the palace. For a while, private collections flourished, and even many foreign speculators came to China to buy cultural relics wantonly.

Falsification and imitation of ancient times also became popular at that time. The famous painter Zhang Daqian was a master forger who was good at imitation.

In the following ten years, disasters and wars were repeated on the land of China. Although there were still very few people concerned about protecting some precious national treasures, people would not even be able to eat at that time. Who would take these things as treasures? .

During this period of time, a large number of precious cultural relics were lost overseas, which also made some domestic experts feel sad in the future.

In the 90s of the last century, the spring breeze of reform and opening up swept across the land of China, people's living standards are also improving day by day, and entertainment and cultural life is gradually enriched.

And the fascination for antique art, which has been out of people's eyeliner for nearly half a century, began to heat up slowly.

The amount of transactions in domestic auction houses alone is more than billions of dollars a year, not to mention that most of the boutiques are sold abroad.

Marx once said: "If there is a profit of [-]%, capital will be ready to move; if there is a profit of [-]%, capital will get carried away; if there is a profit of [-]%, then the gallows can be done. "

Seeing that the antique industry is so hot, many lawbreakers have also moved their minds. Those tomb robbers who have been silent for more than half a century have also returned to their old professions, and some people with unique skills simply resumed their old professions.
