Chapter 731
When everyone looked where Tan Fei pointed, their eyebrows trembled.

"What you value in your relationship is what's inside."

Qin Fei was happy, and nodded at Lu Wanshan: "Yes, just now I felt that the structure of this nose was wrong, but... I didn't find anything different."

"But didn't I touch it later, and that touch told me that there must be some good stuff in it."

Lu Wanshan nodded, but he didn't understand, how can he determine what's inside by touching it?

of course not!

Qin Fei could see it because of his clairvoyance, but he couldn't tell it in front of the old man, so he had to make up a reason, saying it was his sixth sense.

For those who play antiques, the sixth sense is actually very important.

Lu Wanshan didn't doubt it either, but he didn't understand Qin Fei a bit: "It's a good nose. If you value the stuff inside, why don't we take it off after the hair is wet? Why chop it up?"

"It's not a waste of stuff."

Qin Fei shook his head. He was still carefully peeling off the nose: "Old man, actually the nose is worthless. Its medicinal value is very low. It is mainly composed of fat and collagen."

"The emperor ate it because of its rarity and novelty, and the common people regarded it as a good thing. I think most of it was because the emperor had eaten it."

"But in fact, the value of the nose is of little value. Before the appearance of the Manchu Banquet, the nose of the moose can only be regarded as a fat supplement for the mountain people."

"but!"

Speaking of this, Qin Fei raised his tone and became solemn.

He said, but in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, An was indeed a very important animal resource, and it was not something that ordinary people could raise, because there were many dynasties in ancient times who considered An to be a divine beast.

Including the Ming and Qing Dynasties, although there was a habit of eating the nose in the late Qing Dynasty, for the people at that time, the nose was a kind of "sacred beast", and eating its nose was also a status symbol.

During the Ming Dynasty, many princes outside the customs liked to raise moose as their pets.

In this nose, what they saw just now is actually a metal ring, which looks like gold, but the details will have to wait until Qin Fei takes it out.

Because there were many people at the scene, Qin Fei didn't look carefully. He only knew that there was something inside and it was an antique, so he bought it back.

It is a mistake to believe that what the ancients used on animals is worthless.

In fact, on the contrary, for those high-ranking princes, pets are even more important than their family members from a certain perspective.

For example, Emperor Qianlong had a favorite BMW, even reaching the title of prince, but the money he had to throw on the horse every year still exceeded his daily salary.

This is the best description.

After a lot of effort, Qin Fei took out the thing in Feng Ganan's nose.

Although the ring was devastated by the years, it was still shining golden. This was mainly because there was a lot of oil in the nose, which just formed an insulating layer on the golden ring, so that the entire golden ring could be well preserved.

"It really is gold."

Qin Fei took Jinjiang and Jinhuan seriously, and then used his clairvoyance to determine the age and identity of Jinhuan.

He was right this time.

Because the information he obtained told him that this golden ring belonged to a general outside the Great Wall.

General Songyun of the Marat family, General Jilin during the Daoguang period!

This man was also very well-known. He had been out of Russia for eight years in his early years, and then he was very popular when he returned. During the Daoguang period, he even served as governor of Zhili and general of Jilin and other important positions.

After he died, the emperor posthumously gave the crown prince the title of Taibao, a very capable and powerful man.

This object is what he sent people to herd the beasts in the mountains after he became the general of Jilin, and prepared to present them to the emperor, but one of the beasts ran away while escorting them to Beijing, and then died of old age in the mountains.

After being discovered, the nose was picked off, and it has been kept to this day.

As for the supporting evidence for these clues, they were all on the golden ring, which was recorded in small Manchu characters. This golden ring alone was enough to make the price Qin Fei paid today more than ten times!
In addition to its own value, what is more important is the historical significance carried by this artifact.

It can be seen that during the Daoguang period, as the three generals outside the pass, they had to pay tribute to the emperor regularly, and prepared such myths and legends to please the emperor.

If coupled with the educational background and identity of Marat's Songyun, it can better reflect the local conditions and customs at that time.

This was the key to Qin Fei's excitement.

After everyone listened to his story, they couldn't help but marvel. After all, if it weren't for Tan Fei, they wouldn't have known such an interesting story.

"It seems that this time you got the baby."

Lu Wan said with a smile, and Qin Fei also said happily: "Old man, I can give you other things, but this... has a different meaning, so..."

"do not!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Wanshan had already waved his hand: "These are all your luck and have nothing to do with us, no matter how thick-skinned we are, we can't take them, so you should keep them for yourself."

"If you have a chance in the future, it's better to tell us more relevant stories."

"Although our group is also from the antique shop, the changes of more than 100 years have already made us forget our roots and focus on fighting with you."

"Come on, I'm really tired today. I'll ask Shi Heng to prepare some food later. Let's have a meal and go back to rest!"

After Qin Fei and his party returned to Xiao Lin's home, he took out the golden ring.Put it on the coffee table.

This made Xiao Lin not understand what he meant, what's the matter, could there be something else to say about this thing?

Qin Fei nodded heavily!

Xiao Lin was stunned: "Brother, what else can you say? You are in front of the old man..."

He didn't need to finish. Qin Fei understood what he meant and explained: "Actually, I didn't hide it on purpose, but it was just inappropriate to say these things."

"Do you know what another saying is about the golden ring in the nose?"

"what?"

"Borrowing ring."

As Qin Fei said, a stern look flashed across his eyebrows: "Because in ancient times, people believed that huge moose were gods, so they had a long life, so some crooked guys would set their hands on them. It is said that money can be imposed on people by borrowing the life of divine beasts, and Lu Lao is getting old, I was worried that he would be paranoid after hearing these words, so I didn’t say anything.”

Only then did Xiao Lin understand, but the way she looked at the golden ring somewhat changed: "But brother, do you really think there is something wrong with this thing?"
