Lu Chong knows that there are three places in the capital where cultural relics are gathered. One is the Liulichang, the other is Baoguo temple and pan Jiayuan. They have the common characteristics of many fakes. However, it is difficult to defeat Lu Chong.

Walking on the cultural street, Lu Chong suddenly felt that his nerves were also relaxed. The antique Ming and Qing buildings on both sides of the street, antique players were slow, carrying birdcages and drinking morning tea, relaxed and comfortable, forming a unique atmosphere here.

Lu Chong and Fang Bingbing walked hand in hand and strolled in the street full of cultural atmosphere.

When Fang Bingbing knew that Lu Chong and Fang Qingxue were no longer blind dates and that she could go back to Jiangbei, she had no reservations about Lu Chong. She wore clothes that Lu Chong liked. She wore simple and generous clothes, and her makeup was very light, just right.

She is so beautiful that even if she wears black framed glasses, she is also a beautiful glasses lady. She looks back 100%, and men look back at her from time to time.

Fang Bingbing now takes off all her psychological baggage and goes shopping with her beloved. She is in a very happy mood. A sweet smile appears on her face from time to time. She is more charming and attracts the eyes of passers-by.

Many young men wanted to chat up, but they saw Lu Chong. Lu Chong's handsome face and sharp temperament like a scabbard sword made them all ashamed and discouraged.

Lu Chong's temperament could have been reserved and not show his edge, but in that case, Fang Bingbing's beauty will provoke countless wild bees and butterflies, which is very annoying.

Soon, the two people came to the shop Du Zhongguo said hand in hand.

That shop specializes in Buddhist related cultural relics.

When Lu Chong and Fang Bingbing walked into the store, they saw a Buddha statue more than two people high at the top of the store, and a Bodhisattva arhat statue with different looks next to it.

There are many Buddhist relics on both sides of the shop, such as statues, portraits, magic tools, porcelain and other things, mainly statues, or gold, copper and ceramics.

Lu Chong suppressed it. It's very rare that 30% of them are genuine, which is much better than those 100% fake stalls outside.

When Lu Chong and Fang Bingbing entered the store, there were eight or nine guests in the store.

A waiter in the store smiled and greeted him. Fang Bingbing was so beautiful. The young man couldn't help looking at Fang Bingbing more, and then tried to turn his eyes to Lu Chong: "Hello, sir, what do you need?"

Lu Chong took out the business card Du Zhongguo gave him: "a friend of mine said there were good things in your store. Let me come directly to your boss Cheng."

The man immediately showed a cautious look on his face: "what's your friend's name, please?"

"Du Zhongguo, he knows your boss very well."

The man immediately showed a respectful look: "it's old Du's friend. Our boss is meeting guests on the second floor. You can go straight up."

Lu Chong heard that the boss had guests. It's inconvenient to disturb him. He said, "let's have a look at it below first, and then go up after reading it."

The man said respectfully, "well, please help yourself. You can call me at any time."

There are a wide range of cultural relics in the store, so the channel is a little narrow. Therefore, it is inconvenient for Lu Chong to hold hands with Fang Bingbing, so he releases his hand. Fang Bingbing follows behind Lu Chong and looks at the statues curiously.

Lu Chong skimmed over the statues that didn't contain much luck and came to a incense burner.

Some dim eyes suddenly lit up.

On the surface, this is a Buddhist incense burner, made of copper.

However, Lu Chong found that the gas transportation of this copper furnace is not trivial and comparable to other copper furnaces. It is speculated from the gas transportation that it has a history of more than 500 years. According to this inference, the seemingly ordinary Buddha incense burner is actually a famous Xuande furnace, and it is an extremely rare genuine product!

During the reign of emperor Xuande of the Ming Dynasty, in order to satisfy his hobby of enjoying incense burners, he ordered to import a batch of red copper from Siam, and instructed the Royal craftsman LV Zhen and the Minister of industry Wu bangzuo to design and supervise incense burners with reference to the styles of famous porcelain from Chai kiln, Ru kiln, official kiln, Ge kiln, Jun kiln and Ding kiln, as well as historical books such as Xuanhe Bogu atlas and archaeological map.

In order to ensure the quality of the censer, LV zhenzhan confided to the emperor that if he wanted to make a good censer, the copper had to be refined six times, one time, less. After six times, only half of the raw materials would be left. Emperor Xuande was rich and had a strong sense of high-quality goods. He immediately ordered that the number of refining should not be reduced, but also doubled, refining 12 times, and adding precious metals such as gold and silver. Therefore, the craftsman selected dozens of precious metals such as gold and silver and carefully cast them with red copper for more than ten times. After three years of Xuande, the best copper censer was finally made successfully.

This batch of red copper has cast 3000 censers, which have never been produced again. When Emperor Xuande saw this batch of censers he personally asked about, each of them has an abnormal atmosphere, bright light and a sense of achievement. Most of these incense burners were displayed in various places of the court, and a small part was rewarded and distributed to Royal relatives, distinguished courtiers and temples with large-scale incense. These Xuande furnaces are known by ordinary people only by their names but not by their shapes. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, the copper incense burner cast in the third year of Xuande is very rare.

Xuande stove takes the color as the highlight, its color is integrated, and the bottom book is regular script of "Xuande year of the Ming Dynasty", with a base. The shape of the furnace body is regular, thick and exquisite. Inside the incense burner, the sense of massiness with hundreds of years of history overflows with the incense. It is light and pure, showing the pure and beautiful quality of the copper furnace. The copper is fine and heavy.

Xuande stove has been burning on the fire for a long time, and its color is bright and changeable. If it is put on the fire for a long time, even if it is thrown into the sludge and wiped away the dirt, it will be the same as before.

This incense burner may have been in a large temple for hundreds of years and received numerous incense from good men and women. It contains a strong Buddha spirit. This kind of luck is similar to blessing. It can make people feel peaceful, have deep blessings, turn good luck into good luck and turn bad luck into good luck. If it is placed in the villa, it can help Lu Chong and his confidants avoid many unwarranted disasters. It can be said that, With the strong Buddha spirit, this incense burner is priceless!

Lu Chong waved to the man just now: "how do you sell this?"

The man looked at it and said, "the imitation of Xuande furnace in the Qing Dynasty, 150000!"

Lu Chong was surprised. It was an authentic Xuande stove of the Ming Dynasty. How can this guy say it was an imitation of the Qing Dynasty? He took a look at the censer and found that "eight year system of Guangxu" was engraved on the bottom of the censer.

He laughed to himself. It must be the collectors in the Guangxu period who were afraid of being stolen. They first covered up the words "Xuande of the Ming Dynasty", and then deliberately engraved those words. Unexpectedly, later people took them seriously.

That's good. It's cheap for him. It's of great benefit not to mention his own use. Just take out the auction, at least 15 million!
