It is obvious that among the group of treasure hunters around, there are many knowledgeable people.

Seeing how seriously Karen was taking this jewelry appraisal, the group of people immediately gathered around.

There are a few sharp-eyed people who can see the key point of this spider at a glance.

"Wow, it really looks like an anchor!"

"Then it's unmistakable. It must be a work by Fabergé."

"This jewelry should be the royal jewelry of the Russian royal family!"

"I'll go, wouldn't it be valuable?"

The surrounding treasure hunters were already talking about it, and the temperature of the nearby air had been raised several degrees by them.

At this time, when Chen Rui heard that it was a piece of jewelry used by the Russian royal family, he suddenly felt a rush of heat in his body.

Earlier, he just thought that this spider had a lot of background, that it should be a treasure, and that it should be made of real gems.

But I didn’t regard this spider as an antique.

And now, when he heard that this thing might be the jewelry used by the Russian royal family, how could he not be excited?

You know, if jewelry and antiques have the status of being used by the royal family, that would be a big deal.

The price is definitely going up.

At this moment, everyone around was looking at Karen who was looking at the spider under the microscope.

After a while, Karen took the spider brooch out of the microscope.

"That's right, this is a work by Faberge."

"I'll go, it's true!"

"What did I say?"

"Fuck, why didn't I insist on it in the first place?"

"..."

As soon as Karen said these words, the treasure hunters around him suddenly exploded with a bang.

A blind box of Russian royal jewelry has been opened here. How can everyone not be excited?

This is no ordinary cannon!

"Really?"

Chen Rui's throat kept surging and he swallowed saliva.

"Can't be wrong..."

Karen's face was also full of joy. She was about to say something, but suddenly she felt that something was wrong.

When they looked up, they saw a circle of treasure hunters surrounding them.

These guys all stretched their necks at this moment, and some of them looked at the spider in her hand with greed on their faces.

"Ahem... let's leave here first and then talk!"

Karen also knew that wealth should not be revealed, and Chen Rui also noticed that there was something wrong with the smell in the air.

He quickly helped her clean up her things, and then jumped into the car.

Seeing his pickup truck, it turned around and drove out of the mansion. The treasure hunters around him then turned around and left angrily.

"Xu..."

Karen, who kept looking back at the back room of the car, breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no car was following her.

Then he took out the brooch and played with it.

"Okay, beautiful lady, can you tell me the origin of this spider?"

Chen Rui held the steering wheel and asked Karen with a smile.

Karen turned to look at him: "Have you heard of Faberge eggs?"

"Well, I've heard of Russian Easter eggs, but I've never heard of Fabergé eggs."

Chen Rui remembered his previous trip to a port city in the north. In that city, he had bought such Easter egg souvenirs.

Similar to a matryoshka doll, it is a large wooden egg with colorful decorations on the outside, with small eggs inside.

"Idiot, Russian Easter eggs originated from Faberge Easter eggs."

Karen rolled her eyes, and then began to introduce the origin of Faberge to him.

"This guy is the most famous jewelry designer in the Russian Tsarist era."

"In his early years, he went to Germany, Italy, France, England and other countries to study abroad. It was during this study abroad process that he formed his own opinions on jewelry design."

"After returning to Russia, I started bold innovations in jewelry design."

"For example, applying glaze to gold and silverware would have been considered a treasonous act in the jewelry industry at that time."

"But he just created a unique glazing method. He melted 145 kinds of glazes onto the metal surface through seven processes."

"Created a unique glaze that only he can create."

“Including the later Tsarist eggs, this technique was used.”

"Later, when jewelry designers in Western Europe saw his glazing technique, they were even more shocked."

"Some jewelry designers will even rate the glaze they create as more valuable than gemstones."

"Because he is the only one who knows this kind of craftsmanship and technology."

"So, after he passed away, this craft was lost..."

As Karen talked, Chen Rui seemed to understand the preciousness of this black spider.

At this moment, Karen happened to raise the black spider brooch in her hand.

"And that's what this brooch is like. Don't look at the spider's head and feet, which are inlaid with many rubies and sapphires."

"But in fact, these gems are not as valuable as the black pearl glaze on the spider's belly!"

"This large piece of black glaze is the most valuable part of it..."

After hearing what Karen said, Chen Rui turned his head and glanced at the black spider's belly.

Now under the sunlight, the originally black glaze seemed to suddenly have a touch of gold inside.

As I didn't understand the angle, the golden color actually started to flow like gold sand.

It looks particularly breathtaking...

"As for the platinum decorative net on the glaze, take a closer look at the bottom. Is this piece of spider web shaped like an iron anchor?"

Karen pointed to the bottom of the platinum spider web, and Chen Rui nodded. It looked like an anchor.

"This was one of the royal symbols of the Tsar at that time..."

"So, this black spider must have been used by the Russian royal family back then?"

In fact, Chen Rui had already made up his mind, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"It should be."

"So how much is this thing worth?"

"It's hard to say, but it's definitely not cheap. A conservative estimate would be more than 50,000 yuan!"

When Chen Rui heard this valuation, he felt happy.

But now, he glanced in the rearview mirror.

A black Ford Mustang followed behind me at some point.

He wasn't sure if he was overthinking it, so he asked Karen.

"Are you a little hungry?"

"Well, I've been busy all morning and I'm really hungry now."

"Then let's find a place to eat something first, and then go find that Alves."

Chen Rui stepped on the accelerator, and the V6 engine let out a beastly roar.

The car went straight down the mountain, and half an hour later, the car drove into Santa Monica Beach.

However, Chen Rui did not go straight to the beach, but went to a fast food restaurant first.

This is Five Guys, a chain of burger restaurants known as the best on the West Coast.

The two locked the car and entered the restaurant. Chen Rui ordered his classic double cheese beef burger, and Karen also ordered a single layer one.
