Chapter six hundred and seventy first not mortal
The significance of antiquities dating back more than 2,000 years is indeed extraordinary. Only the Chinese civilization in the world has never been cut off, recording a history of civilization spanning over 5,000 years. It is shocking to think about it.
"Mr. Qin, are these two gold and silver animal head bow holders from the Eastern Han Dynasty very expensive?"
Li Mo shook his head and said: "It should be said that their historical value is higher. If they are put in a museum, they will never come out again."
Li Mo was really surprised to find antiquities from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in such an open-air square. You must know that several of the gold and silver bow-bearing vessels like this were unearthed from the tomb of a certain nobleman in domestic museums.
That means that the two items I found were also from a certain large tomb. I wonder if the other antiquities in that large tomb were lost to the United States.
But it also shows from another aspect that in the United States, "wealth is hidden among the people." As long as you take the time to look for it, you will definitely make amazing discoveries.
"Steven, do you know any of the more well-known country fairs around Boston?"
"I'm really not familiar with this. If Mr. Qin wants to know about this, I'll go back and collect information from various sources."
"Well, we'll talk about this later when we have time."
Everyone continued to wander around the open-air market. Li Mo stopped from time to time to pick up an item. By the time they finished browsing the row of stalls, they had picked up a total of thirteen items, five of which were Chinese antiques. Such a harvest.
Not too big.
"Mr. Qin, you see there are antique shops in the shops on both sides of the market. I want to go inside and have a look. Maybe there are better antiques from China in there."
Steven's suggestion was good. Li Mo nodded and walked towards the antique shop first. There were several antique shops along the street. Li Mo randomly chose one and walked in. The shop area was large, and it was mainly divided into two parts.
One of the large areas is the weapons area, which displays a variety of weapons, including swords, clubs, spears, bows and arrows from China, as well as knight armor, axes, broadswords, etc. from the European Middle Ages. There is a dazzling array of everything.
The other area should be a multi-functional area, which contains jewelry and jades, handicrafts, Chinese calligraphy and painting, European and American oil paintings and sculptures, etc. The shop assistants here are also very excellent, wearing black business suits and white gloves.
The clerk's hair was tied up, and the male clerk's hair was combed meticulously.
At this time, there are many customers shopping and negotiating in the store, and there are also dedicated clerks who make fresh cups of coffee for customers. Business looks good.
Seeing several more people entering the store, one of them, a young blonde beauty, came over with a smile. Steven's eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to communicate with her briefly. The beautiful clerk made an invitation gesture to Li Mo.
"What did you say to him?"
"Mr. Qin, I just told her that you are very rich." Steven answered honestly. Rich people in the United States have many intangible privileges, so when the clerk heard that Li Mo was a rich man from the Eastern country, his attitude was unusual.
of enthusiasm.
Li Mo didn't have any unpleasant thoughts. Nine out of ten people who came to the antique store were rich. He looked at the multi-functional area and saw a truss in a corner, filled with various porcelains.
"Can I see the plum vase?"
Li Mo pointed to a blue and white plum vase on the truss. Judging from the appearance, the craftsmanship was quite exquisite and beautiful, and it was not the kind of thing that was just meant to fool people.
The blonde beauty carefully took off the blue and white plum vase and placed it gently on the counter, then motioned to Li Mo to take a look.
The things are really well made and are among the best among high imitation products.
Li Mo flipped through the bottom and almost couldn't help laughing. There was a clear four-character style at the bottom, in large seal script, which said Made by Ancient Yunxuan. He didn't expect that the master was so powerful. He even customized the high-quality Imitation porcelain has already crossed the ocean to the United States.
"Thank you." Li Mo smiled and nodded towards the tall young woman. He didn't start to look at them one by one. Yi Tong scanned them and found that the more than 20 pieces of Gu Yunxuan on the trusses were all modern high imitations. He spent more than ten years on them. After shopping around for a minute, I was really disappointed. There was no good stuff in this antique store.
He was about to leave and went to the antique shop next door to have another look. At this time, someone pushed the door open and came in. They were a man and a woman in their forties. The man looked a bit sloppy in his clothes, and the woman's appearance was not very good, just like on the street. Wandering people.
Li Mo glanced at them and saw that the man was holding a rectangular box in his hands, which seemed to contain swords and the like. He thought they were going to the weapons area, but they went directly to the jade jewelry counter.
The two of them seemed to be in a bad situation, but the clerk still received them warmly and asked them if they needed help.
Steven walked to Li Mo and whispered: "The man said that he found the wooden box in his grandfather's old house. There were some things that looked like antiques in it, and he wanted to ask the appraisal experts here to help him take a look. See what it is?”
After hearing what he said, Li Mo was not in a hurry to leave. He was curious to see what was in the rectangular wooden box.
When I got closer and took a look, I suddenly felt uneasy.
He saw that there were more than a dozen pieces of jade placed in the wooden box. Not all of them were jade. Two of them looked like they were carved from a certain kind of stone. One was shaped like a ring, and the other was shaped like a ring. It is a stone knife, and the other thirteen pieces are all genuine jade articles. Basically every jade article has an obvious clear color. This shows that the dozen or so jade articles are not handed down from ancestors, but dug out of the ground.
The strange boy looked around and saw that the bodies carved from two stones actually emitted a halo of black and white. They were ancient artifacts representing the Neolithic Age. Looking at the dozen or so items behind him, Li Mo's face was terrifyingly gloomy. Some transmit a purple-gold halo, some transmit a golden halo, and there are also red halos and blue halos.
In other words, the fifteen pieces of jades placed in this wooden box are from the Neolithic Period, the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Tang Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty. Damn, what exactly does the grandfather's family of this middle-aged man and woman do? How could it be possible to collect so many jade articles over such a long time span?
Just as Li Mo was about to withdraw his gaze from the strange boy, he suddenly discovered that the rectangular wooden box had two levels of space. There were fifteen pieces of ancient jade on the upper level, and there were things on the lower level.
His eyes had already looked through, and it was in the shape of a knife.
Suddenly, a gray halo shot out from the blade, and then turned into a halo of light all over the sky, spreading layer by layer into the void space, with a five-clawed dragon swimming in it. This phenomenon he had once seen in the Qing Dynasty's No. 1 National God I have seen it on the Nine Dragon Sword, and on the White Rainbow Sword, the first sacred weapon of the Qing Dynasty. Although the scene in front of me is slightly weaker than them in terms of momentum, there is no doubt that the sword hidden in the lower layer of the wooden box Extraordinary thing.
No matter what, get them back.
