Chapter 210 Coincidence?

Fang Hao was wondering if he ate something indiscriminately, which caused his diarrhea, but after thinking about it, he only ate the oil tea twist in the morning, drank some water, and the two orange petals given by his aunt before, and the oil tea twist was eaten. There is no peculiar smell, and the oranges are very fresh. It is impossible to have this problem.

Could it be because he drank cold water?When did his stomach become so delicate?

Just as he was thinking about this and that, Fang Hao heard two people talking outside, and they said leather shells, could it be related to bronze wares?
Hey!In the toilet outside the Museum of Terracotta Warriors and Horses, discussing bronze wares, I know that there is something tricky when I think about it, and I don’t know who these two people are trying to harm.

"Wait! There seems to be no one in the squatting seat next to me? Could it be that they want to dig a hole for me?"

Fang Hao has a strange expression, who is he provoking, and specifically "planting landmines" for him?
"Click!"

The door of the squatting next door suddenly opened, and someone walked out, which startled Fang Hao: "There is no sound after staying for so long, it is a human or a ghost!"

After a while, Fang Hao also came out. While washing his hands, he heard heated arguments from outside.

Fang Hao walked outside the toilet with curiosity, and found four people standing not far away. The two people who were arguing were an old man in his 50s and a young man in his 30s.

After listening to a few sentences, Fang Hao understood a little. The two people argued because they both wanted to buy what the person next to him was holding, and they didn't want to give in.

Fang Hao took a look in his hand and found that he was holding a coin with a hook.

Belt hook is an important accessory of ancient Chinese clothing, which has both practicality and aesthetics.Jade wares similar to belt hooks appeared in the Liangzhu period, developed during the Shang Dynasty, and from the Warring States period to the Qin and Han Dynasties, the belt hooks were greatly developed in terms of material, shape, and geographical distribution.

The function of the belt hook is mainly to fix and restrain clothes. There are many descriptions about the belt hook, and the most famous one is the historical story that Guan Zhong shot an arrow at the hook worn by Duke Huan of Qi, and Duke Huan of Qi survived.

In addition, when talking about belt hooks in "Huainanzi", the following words are used: "A room full of seats, depending on the hook, is different from the ring and the belt."

It means that if you look around, the waist belts of all the guests are full of luxurious hooks, and there is nothing the same.And it is precisely in this "differing view" that people's identities and status are fully revealed, and the hooks of princes, officials, and common people are clearly distinguished.

What the man held in his hand was a gold-bronze belt hook, because most of it was held in the palm of his hand, and because of the distance, he couldn't see it clearly.

If it was normal, he might still be interested in taking a look. Now, let's leave early.

Just as Fang Hao was about to leave, the old man and the young man got into a fight.

"What's the matter with you, you just said you don't want it, and now you want to grab it, how can there be such a reason!" The uncle was very angry, and the veins on his neck burst.

The young man was also very irritable, his voice was like a gong: "I just said to think about it, when will I say no!"

"Think about it, you just meant that you are not going to want it, but you regret it after seeing me say it, how can there be such a reason, is it easy to bully me when I am an old man?"

The uncle was very angry, ignored the young man's reaction, went up and snatched the hook from the man's hand.

The young man was stunned, and impatiently stepped forward and grabbed the hook in the uncle's hand, trying to grab it, but the uncle would not let go.

The owner was dumbfounded at first, and then anxious: "Oh, be careful! Don't steal it!"

He also wanted to go up and snatch the belt hook back, but he was afraid that he would accidentally damage the thing, so he could only stare blankly at the side with his friends.

The old man glared at the young man angrily: "You don't want to let go!"

The youth confronted each other: "No way!"

"Don't let it go!" The uncle kicked the young man's calf.

The young man never thought that the uncle would actually do something, he was completely unprepared, and was kicked hard on the calf bone.

"Oh!" The young man let out a scream, but he didn't let go of his hand immediately.

The old man pulled hard, but the young man was still holding on tightly, and wanted to kick again. Unexpectedly, at this time, the young man let go of his hand.

The uncle did not expect that the young man would suddenly let go and staggered backwards. Although he did not fall, he was frightened and threw the hook in his hand out.

"Be careful!" The owner and his friends were shocked, their eyes followed the hook in the air, and then they saw the hook fell into Fang Hao's hands.

Fang Hao thought it was really inexplicable, and was about to leave, when he saw the old man and the young man fighting each other, he stopped to watch the excitement, and the hook fell into his hands.

"Is this the so-called 'treasure and I are destined'?"

Now that everything is in his hands, Fang Hao always has to take a look at it, only to see that there are red rust spots on its surface, its body is long and slender, and the hook is located in the middle, which conforms to the characteristics of a hook in the Warring States Period.The dragon's head and long tail are hollowed out and inlaid with scale-shaped turquoise, which symbolizes dragon scales and is lifelike.

The shape of the hook and the leather case are in line with the characteristics of the real thing, but Fang Hao is not sure that it is the real thing.

First of all, this is near the scenic spot, and bronze wares are sold here. Isn't this the old birthday star who hanged himself because he thinks he has a long life?Moreover, the owner's conversation just now made him feel that something was wrong, as if it was said to him specifically, making him feel like he was digging a hole for him.

In addition, the performance of the old and the young is not too exaggerated. Since they want to grab this belt hook, they naturally know its value.

You know, with a conservative estimate, the value of this hook is about 25 to 30. They really don't have to worry, did the hook break during the snatching process?
This kind of people without brains is quite rare, let alone two of them appear at once.

In addition, it was a coincidence that the belt hook fell directly in front of him, which was another coincidence.

A single coincidence can be said to be a coincidence, but two consecutive coincidences, nine times out of ten, there is something tricky in it.

Fang Hao looked at the gilded bronze hook in his hand, and suddenly felt that it was not real. In fact, the identification of antiques is like this, and sometimes it depends on feeling.

Some people may feel that the characteristics of an object conflict with their own accumulated knowledge, and think that the object is wrong, but when the authority thinks that there is no problem with it, he feels that the object is "beautiful" again, and then he is ready for his own way. Treasure and annoyed.

Vice versa, when Fang Hao had doubts, he began to feel that the feeling of wearing a hook was unnatural to him. As for whether this feeling was a sixth sense, or influenced by doubts in his heart, he could only be sure when he discovered it.

Just as Fang Hao was exploring the authenticity of the thing, the owner over there hurried over and heaved a long sigh of relief seeing that the belt hook in Fang Hao's hand was fine.
