I'm really the king of leaks

Chapter 123 Common Routine
"Everyone in the village knows that he is an old eunuch, and everyone is alienated from him. I guess, that night pearl was either rewarded to him by the superiors, or he stole it when he left the palace."

The story of Lao Zhao seems to be told very vividly.

but.

When he first entered the industry, Uncle Chen said a word.

When buying antiques, always take the real thing as the standard.

Storytellers usually tell stories that cannot be studied, just listen to them, without any reference value.

Because storytelling has only one purpose, and that is to make the buyer think his stuff is real.

Of course, having said that, regardless of whether something is true or not, there is nothing wrong with going to see it.

Old Zhao's neighborhood is not far away, it's the neighborhood across the road.

Zhang Yi also agreed.

after the past.

Zhang Yi found out that this old Zhao's house seemed to be richer than Hu Haihai's, and the decoration was very high-end.In terms of furniture, it is basically mahogany.

After sitting down in the living room.

Waited a moment.

Old Zhao took out his belongings.

A mahogany box that looks a bit old-fashioned can immediately give people a sense of simplicity.

Zhang Yi couldn't help being puzzled.

Could it be that this old Zhao really has a night pearl from the Qing Dynasty in his hand?
put it on the table.

Old Zhao pushed the box in front of Zhang Yi.

"Boss Zhang, take a look, it's definitely a good thing!"

As he spoke, he closed the curtains.The curtains are very effective in blocking light, and the room quickly became dark, and after Zhang Yi opened the box.

Old Zhao took a flashlight to shine on the fist-sized bead for a while, and then turned off the flashlight.

Sure enough, I saw a night pearl emitting blue-green fluorescence.

This scene.

Gives a feeling of beauty.

However, the ability to emit light cannot be used as a criterion for judging the authenticity of luminous pearls.A real luminous pearl must be luminous, but a luminous pearl is not necessarily a real luminous pearl.

Subsequently.

Uncle Chen went over again and opened the curtains.

Together with Zhang Yi, he observed carefully.

Uncle Chen can recognize the characters on it, they are a kind of deformed traditional characters.

"Used by the West Palace".

Since it is something for the Queen, if it is right, it must be a rare treasure.

Uncle Chen looked at it for a while, but he seemed not quite sure.After all, real luminous pearls are too precious, and they are not antiques that can be touched frequently.

However, Uncle Chen seemed to have seen something through the cracks in the engraved text.

"Xiao Yi, there is residual soil in this gap, it seems to be something unearthed!"

Zhang Yi also took a look, and there was indeed a little bit of mud left in the middle of the engraved writing.

"Old Zhao, this thing of yours was unearthed, right?"

Uncle Chen asked directly.

Mr. Zhao originally wanted to deny it, but Hu Haihui, who was next to him, preempted it.

"Old Zhao, you have to be kind. What is unearthed is what is unearthed. Boss Zhang has always done business in a real way. When he was playing mahjong, didn't you tell me that you got this thing from construction workers? Bought it!"

These words left Lao Zhao speechless, and even had a bitter look on his face.

"Whatever it is, Boss Zhang won't cheat us, and we can't cheat Boss Zhang, right?"

This Hu Haihui is honest.

Now that the conversation has reached this point, it is hard for Lao Zhao to say anything more.

Obviously, the eunuch's story was made up by him.I was just worried about Zhang Yi and the others, seeing that the things were unearthed, they deliberately lowered the price.

He smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Boss Zhang, this... I'm sorry... It is indeed an unearthed thing, but it must be the real thing. You have seen it too, how beautiful it is!"

"This thing is probably used by the emperor!"

"Wait a minute, I'll take another look!"

Zhang Yi said.

In fact, Zhang Yi still has another chance to appraise today.

Because, in the semi-finals against Wang Wei, Wang Wei took the lead in one round, but he answered wrongly. Zhang Yi had already won that round without using his identification ability.

In the first two rounds of the competition, Zhang Yi did not use the opportunity to identify, and had already advanced smoothly.

In the semi-finals and finals, Zhang Yi used a total of seven appraisal opportunities.

Just one chance left.

Now, it happens to be used to identify this luminous pearl.This old Zhao has too many minds. Unless he is 100% sure of what he has, he really cannot accept it.

Zhang Yi raised his hand and put his right index finger on the Ye Mingzhu.

The voice in my head came.

"Excuse me, is it authenticated?"

"Identify!"

Zhang Yi thought to himself.

"The fluorite luminous pearl used by the West Palace in the Qing Dynasty."

"Night pearl is a rare gemstone. It is natural and self-luminous jewelry that can be seen clearly by human eyes in the dark. It was called "suizhu", "hanging bead", "hanging thorn" and "bright moon bead" in ancient times. , it is some luminescent substances in the earth's land after tens of millions of years, from the initial volcanic magma eruption to the later geological movement, it is formed in the ore, and it contains these luminescent rare elements. "

"A real luminous pearl, illuminated by bright light and placed in a dark place, needs to wait for a while before it can emit light. However, this luminous pearl can emit light immediately after a short exposure. The reason is that it is a piece of ordinary white marble. Stone, just coated with a layer of fluorescent coating."

"In addition, the night pearl has mud residues in the gaps between the text carvings. Although it has been cleaned, some of it is left on purpose. It makes this object look like an unearthed object. In fact, it was just buried in the soil. It’s just old. Therefore, this is a modern imitation of the fluorite luminous pearl used by the Imperial Palace in the Qing Dynasty!”

This thing is indeed a fake.

Zhang Yi put it down.

If the thing is a fake, then there is no need to continue talking.

"I'm really sorry, old man Zhao, your things are too expensive, I'm afraid I can't afford them!"

When Lao Zhao heard this, he seemed a little surprised, and couldn't help being taken aback.

He thought for a moment before speaking.

"Boss Zhang, I...I am also in debt to my friend, and he has been calling for the debt every three days. Otherwise, I would never give up on Ye Mingzhu! You...you can just help me, an old man!"

Zhang Yi didn't say anything, because this is a common way to sell antiques.

Next, Old Zhao must have said, otherwise, I will mortgage this thing to you first, and then redeem it after my money turnover is over.

really.

Seeing that Zhang Yi remained silent, Old Zhao continued to speak.

"Boss Zhang, I think...or else, I only have 20 yuan short of my hand. The things will be mortgaged to you, Boss Zhang. Once the money on my side is turned over, I will redeem it immediately. How about it?" ?”
