54 Picked up the treasure?
"Wow! This jar is really..."
Karen also plays with antiques, although she is not specialized in Longguo antiques.
But after all, she is an antique player, and she is still very keen on the beauty of antiques.
"This must be an ancient porcelain from the Dragon Kingdom, right? Wow, Ricky, how did you find it?"
"This jar must be valuable!"
Karen's eyes were shining as she looked at the jar.
But she couldn't figure out how Chen Rui got from the most inconspicuous corner at the bottom of the box.
Did you find the teacup, and also knew that the lid of the teacup belonged to this jar?
She looked up at Chen Rui, who just laughed.
"It's just good luck."
But this time, Karen no longer believed this guy's lies.
She felt more and more that Chen Rui must be hiding something from her. This guy must have played with antiques before.
Otherwise, how could he 'pick up' good things every time?
This cannot be explained by luck.
But Chen Rui didn't tell her, so she couldn't ask more questions.
"Take some photos of this jar, send them to Lao Fang, and ask him if he recognizes this thing."
Although Chen Rui can recognize treasures, he does not understand them.
He knew this jar was a treasure, but he couldn't tell what it was exactly.
Karen didn't say much, took out her phone, took a few photos of the jar, and sent them to her brother-in-law, Lao Fang.
At this moment, Chen Rui took out a small toolbox from the truck bed.
There are protective air columns and air pumps inside.
These are all the experiences he gained from packing goods when he brought goods to others in the past.
When Karen and I went shopping for treasures before, these equipment were placed in Karen’s car.
But the previous few times, I couldn't find any porcelain from the Dragon Kingdom, so these things were useless.
This time we found this big jar, so we naturally had to focus on protecting it.
Separate the jars and lids and wrap them tightly with air columns.
Then he took out a suitcase filled with sponges, and carefully stuffed these two treasures inside.
After putting away the big can, Chen Rui pulled over the cardboard box that cost him the last 10,000 yuan.
While he was filling the jars, Karen had been rummaging through the carton for a long time.
"There are twenty-eight pieces of jewelry in total, including ten pairs in sets."
"It's all a three-piece set of ear clips, rings, and brooches..."
Karen put some jewelry she thought was valuable into batches and placed them in front of Chen Rui.
"But these are tourmalines, not gems. Either they are not pure enough, or they are not hard enough."
Karen pulled the sets of jewelry and introduced them to Chen Rui.
Foreigners’ definition of gems is very different from ours.
For example, the jadeite and Hetian jade that our countrymen like are very popular in our country.
But internationally, it is not very valuable, or even not recognized at all.
Why is this happening?
Because internationally, there are several basic conditions for defining gems.
One is that the purity must be high enough, which means that the color of the gemstone must be either rich enough or translucent enough.
The second is that it is hard enough. Only when the hardness reaches a certain standard can it be defined as a gemstone.
And the Hetian jade and jade that our Chinese like are basically not hard enough.
Therefore, internationally, it is generally not well accepted by foreigners.
At this time, Karen was holding these tourmaline stones, which were basically stones of insufficient purity.
Otherwise, these tourmalines can be classified as tourmalines.
Chen Rui didn't care much about the other treasures, but directly picked up a black spider from the corner of the jewelry array.
When Karen saw this thing, she couldn't help but take a few steps back, with a look of fear on her face.
When Chen Rui saw it, he couldn't help laughing: "You don't seem to like this brooch very much!"
"Not only do I dislike it, I simply hate it!"
Karen frowned and looked at the black spider brooch in his hand.
Chen Rui raised his eyebrows: "Why?"
"Don't you know? Girls don't like this dark creature very much..."
"Well, okay, my sister likes to keep this thing as a pet. I was bitten by this thing when I was a child!"
While Karen was speaking, her body couldn't help but shiver.
Chen Rui laughed: "No wonder!"
With Karen's knowledge of Western antiques, she won't miss any treasures.
But she missed it this time, apparently because of her innate rejection of spiders.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing Chen Rui holding the spider in the sun and playing with it, Karen also discovered the strangeness of the spider.
The workmanship of this spider can be said to be very exquisite.
The eight legs and main body of the spider are supported by gold, and there is a small piece of sapphire on the instep of each foot.
The spider's eyes are made of rubies, and the spider's head and abdomen are linked by platinum.
And this platinum waistband is embellished with a huge sapphire.
The spider's abdominal structure is also very complex, with a gold ring at the bottom.
On the top of the gold ring setting is a large black crystal that looks like stone but not stone.
In the sunlight, the surface of this crystal sparkles even more.
After all, Karen knew what she was buying. She took the brooch and looked at the spider's abdomen a few times, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"It's glazed glass!"
"Wow, the only one who can make glazes of this color and dare to apply glazes on gold ring settings is Faberge!"
Karen's voice gradually became more enthusiastic.
Chen Rui, on the other hand, had an unclear feeling.
The reason why he spent 10,000 yuan to take a picture of this cardboard box was because he was attracted by the yellow light in the box.
He originally thought that there would be porcelain or something in this box, but he never thought that this pale yellow light was actually emitted by this spider brooch?
At first he was puzzled because it looked like the type of jewelry that foreigners like.
After all, our Dragon Kingdom doesn’t have a royal family that likes to use spiders to make shapes.
Only those foreigners are unscrupulous and dare to use any style.
But he didn't know the origin of this spider.
But now, with Karen's continuous analysis and cheers.
The origin of this black spider has already been revealed.
At this moment, Karen seemed to have taken out her equipment in order to verify the authenticity of the black spider's origin.
A magnifying glass, a small flashlight, and even a microscope were not included in the parking lot.
We have already started to ‘test’ this spider...
At this time, many treasure hunters who participated in the auction passed by them.
As soon as they saw their posture, they knew that they must have found a treasure, so they all couldn't help but come over...
"This boy from the Dragon Kingdom is really lucky. He seems to have found a treasure."
"Fuk, look at the glass glaze on the belly of this black spider."
"What's that? Isn't it just covered with a layer of platinum spider web?"
