After packing a few pieces of raw stones, Li Yi went to several stalls next to him for a walk. He didn't see anything worth collecting, so he prepared to turn back to the store area.

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, he was attracted by a big guy on a lonely stall.

This is a floor-standing candlestick with cloisonné enamel, with a height of about 1.5 meters. The base of the candlestick is round, the columns are divided into two sections, and the middle is connected by a bulging ball. The outside of these are covered with a layer of sky blue cloisonné enamel, and the decoration is cloud pattern and lotus pattern.

At the top of the candlestick is a squatting gilded monkey with a tray-style candlestick on its head. The craftsmanship of the whole candlestick is very exquisite, and the workmanship of the cloisonné enamel part is also very exquisite. What is even more commendable is that the gilded layer on the monkey's body does not fall off.

What’s just a bit funny is that the top end was where the candle was placed, but now it was equipped with a white light bulb, and a wire with a switch fell from the side. It seemed that someone who didn’t know how to do it had changed it to a desk lamp!

Li Yi studied it carefully and confirmed that this should be a court item from the Qianlong period. This kind of candlestick should generally be placed in a certain hall, and from the perspective of that monkey, it should be at least 12 groups, which is exactly the same as 12 zodiac signs.

However, it is already afternoon now. Even if the collectors who have not come to treasure hunt from China today, the owners of the shops next to them should be able to see why they can still stay in the stall? Especially this guy is so tall!

Is it very expensive?

Li Yi probably has this only reason.

"Boss, how do you sell this desk lamp?"

"Oh, this is what my neighbor just took over and asked me to sell for him, and it costs 10,000 pounds."

"Just brought it?"

Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the other things on the boss's stall, which were all European bronze mirrors, makeup boxes, old wallets and other gadgets. He confirmed that he really didn't understand, so he smiled and took out 10,000 pounds and handed them to him.

It's more expensive, but he's too lazy to bargain. This thing can be easily turned over and over, and it's more than ten times more than twenty times!

However, after paying the money, Li Yi was worried again with the candlestick. Why did he buy all the big guys today? It seems that Gu Feng will have another trip later!

As soon as he walked to the edge of the small square, a middle-aged white man came over. After looking up and down the candlestick, he asked curiously:

"Sir, where did you buy this desk lamp? How much does it cost?"

"Desk lamp? Why are you asking about this?"

"Oh, that's it. I also have something similar to this one at home, but there is a pig at the top, so..."

The man spread his hands and said that he was surprised to see such a similar thing here.

He was surprised, and Li Yi was even more surprised.

"Sir, are you sure that the desk lamp in your house looks very similar to this one?"

"Yes, if it weren't for the monkey here, I would have thought this would be my one."

"Oh Buy! This is such a coincidence! I just bought this one in the square and spent 10,000 pounds. Sir, is the one in your family going to sell? I'm very interested in this kind of thing."

"Oh, you're so cunning. If this desk lamp is really only 10,000 pounds, I think I'll be very interested."

Li Yi was stunned and then smiled bitterly, but unexpectedly he met someone who knew it. Fortunately, he saw it first and started. If it was later, let alone knowing that there was a pig, he would not even buy this monkey.

"Sir, since you only cost 10,000 pounds, then I will give you 20,000 pounds, how about you give it to me to make a pair?"

When Li Yi heard this, he was very happy. My buddy hasn't had the idea of ​​the one at home yet. You are thinking about my one, it's quite a thief.

He shook his head and smiled:

"If this desk lamp is really only 20,000 pounds, I think I will be more interested than you!"

"Oh? Hahahaha!"

The man was stunned, laughed a few times, and stretched out his right hand at Li Yi.

"I am Adams Cameron, a fan of Eastern cultural relics. I am very happy to meet you, Mr. Appraiser from the East."

Li Yi held his hand and shook it, and said with a smile:

"I am Li Yi. To be honest, I am indeed interested in the desk lamp at Mr. Cameron's house."

"That's it... Then Mr. Li, do you have time to go to my house to check it out? There is not just one desk lamp there."

"Yeah?"

Li Yi didn't expect that this candlestick would actually help him catch a big man, and he couldn't help but shook Cameron's right hand happily and vigorously.

"If you have time, Mr. Cameron's words, you must have time even if you don't have time! But, maybe you may have to wait for me for a moment, and I'll see where my companion is... Hi, Gu Feng, here!"

Li Yi was about to call Gu Feng when he saw him walking out of a taxi and quickly greeted him.

After briefly introducing the two, Li Yi followed Cameron to his home in the western suburbs of London.

Cameron's home is a three-story country house, large, with an estimated area of ​​more than 500 square meters, and also has a garden of about the same size.

"Tea or coffee?"

Cameron led the two into his villa, and then Li Yi saw the desk lamp next to the sofa at a glance, which was almost exactly the same as the one in his hand!

"Oh, Mr. Li really knows the goods. This desk lamp is a collection my grandfather brought back from France twenty years ago. In fact, our family has begun to consciously collect some treasures from the East since my grandfather was young. So far, there have been more than 600 oriental artifacts in collections! I go to the Port Bayer Road Market almost every week, but in recent years, there are fewer and fewer good things there."

While making tea for the two of them, Cameron introduced his situation. Judging from this guy's skillful technique, it is really possible that he is a Huaxiatong.

However, since he has been collecting Chinese cultural relics, he will not easily take advantage of these things. So, why did he invite him here?

Soon, Li Yi came to a conclusion that made him laugh and cry. This guy was really trying to hit the candlestick in his hand!

Sure enough, not long after sitting down, Cameron spoke directly.
Chapter completed!
