Jin Muchen let out a long breath and slowly put down the pen holder in his hand.

But as soon as the canister was put down, I felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange. Although Gu Li on the other side was taking Sean and Ma Ling to look at the jade, his eyes glanced here from time to time.

In particular, Gu Li, who was beside him, was staring at his side.

Just when he put down the jade pen holder in his hand, he said to the shop owner David Zhang.

"Boss, can you show me that pen holder?"

When he spoke, he looked at Jin Muchen with a sneering smile at the corner of his mouth, which was obviously meant to **** love and kill Jin Muchen with money.

Jin Muchen's face changed, this grandson, it seems that he has been holding back for a long time, and he wants to find fault, right?

Well, want to use money to hit Lao Tzu? Then I'll play with you. Anyway, I'm not short of money now, so Jin Muchen turned his heart away and glared back.

And David Zhang, who had been standing next to Sean, changed his face at this time, then put on a smiling face and came to Jin Muchen's side.

"Mr. Jin, have you finished reading this tube? Then I'll show it to that gentleman."

After he finished speaking, he didn't even wait for him to agree, so he took the pen holder to Sean's side, and Sean didn't even look at it at all.

"Boss, how much is this pen holder? I bought it."

David's face was overjoyed. He sold this pen holder from China. It has been in storage for a long time, and he has never been able to sell it. Today, there is such a fool who is willing to take over, of course he will not be polite.

"Mr. Xiao, you are so discerning..."

But he was only halfway through what he said, when he saw Gu Li who was standing next to Sean giving him a wink, and then Gu Li was behind him and quietly pushed Sean. Then he whispered softly in his ear.

Originally, Sean focused all his energy on Jin Muchen and wanted to wrestle with him, but after listening to Gu Li's soft whisper, his expression changed a bit. Then hummed again.

"Forget it, such a pen holder, young master, I don't like it."

David Zhang's face changed, although he knew Gu Li. But what do you mean by this guy? It's not that you don't know the origin of this tube. It's a bit unethical for you to interfere with my business like this.

At this time, Jin Muchen, who had been sitting on the other side without saying a word, chuckled lightly.

"Boss, how much is this canister? I want it."

If it's someone who doesn't know what to do, I'm afraid he will think that he is trying to get angry with Sean, and even Gu Li thinks the same way.

When David Zhang heard Jin Muchen say this, a flattering smile appeared on his originally stiff face. I was really lucky today, I actually ran into two 250s, but you guys are so arrogant, it's not bad, at least my pen holder, which I have been holding for several years, can finally be shot.

"Hehe, Mr. Jin, you are also a knowledgeable person. I don't want this pen holder. It's $30,000."

This guy is really black-hearted, and it costs 30,000 to open his mouth. Jin Muchen smiled coldly.

"Boss Zhang, you want 30,000 yuan for this pen holder, isn't it a bit too much?"

And this David Zhang was full of arrogance at this time.

"Nothing at all, Mr. Jin, I know what you were thinking about before. This pen holder does not look like a treasure from the Qianlong Emperor's possession, but it must be an old item from the Qing Dynasty, because the domestic experts I specially hired have done the appraisal. If you want to see it, I can show you the identification certificate, so even if it is not in the imperial collection of Qianlong, it is still an antique from the Qing Dynasty. And you can see that this jade material seems to be very ordinary, but the key is the utensil of this utensil The size is large enough, the materials used are sufficient, and the carver is absolutely excellent, so I think the price of 30,000 US dollars is not expensive at all."

Not to mention that what David Zhang said really makes sense.

Even later, someone deliberately engraved the inscription of the Shiquan old man on it to pretend to be the Qianlong imperial collection, which is not the real one.

But after all, it is an old object from the Qing Dynasty, and the materials used are indeed sufficient, and the carving is also very exquisite, so this quotation really cannot be regarded as a lion's mouth.

"Hey! If you don't have money, you can learn some antiques from others. If you can't afford it, then leave quickly. Don't be embarrassed here!"

Sean, who was standing on the sidelines and watched indifferently, suddenly spoke at this time, coupled with the full sarcasm on his face, looking at it really made Jin Muchen feel a little blocked.

"Okay, 30,000 is 30,000, swipe your card!"

Jin Muchen was really too lazy to watch this guy sway in front of his eyes, he just wanted to quickly grab this baby and leave.

At this time, David Zhang was full of surprises. I didn't expect this guy to take the trick like this. I thought he would grind with him for a while. It seems that Gu Li brought this young master really right .

In such a fight between the two sides, in the end, the winner is still himself.

Soon he swiped Jin Muchen's card and completed the transaction. The receipts and invoices all slammed into a box, and together with the identification certificate of the jade pen holder, he took it out together, and he had to put the jade pen holder into the box. inside.

Jin Muchen directly took out the appraisal book and threw it aside. Even such a good thing can be punched. That appraisal expert must be a second knife.

At this time, Gu Li, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said: "Mr. Jin, it's really not worth the 30,000 yuan you spent on this pen! If you think this is a pen holder in the imperial collection of Qianlong, and you have missed it, then you can Just check it wrong, if you collect him as an old item from the Qing Dynasty, then you spend too much money."

Jin Muchen raised his eyebrows, but didn't answer. Sean, who was standing next to Gu Li, took it as a slap in the face.

"Hey! Master Gu, why do you say that?"

The two of them sang together, obviously wanting to slap Jin Muchen in the face. Ma Ling, who was standing beside him, had a worried look on his face. After not seeing each other for a few months, Jin Muchen had changed so much that she didn't even know her. .

Although she is now with Sean, Sean is not bad to her, but for some reason, whenever she sees Jin Muchen, she always has a feeling that she can't let go.

Sean and her boasted about the reputation of GU Li, a master of antique appraisal in the domestic parade. He said that, could it be that Jin Muchen spent money unjustly?

"Although this tube is an old item from the Qing Dynasty, it is definitely not in the imperial collection of Qianlong, so the price is definitely not comparable to those of the fine jades of the Qianlong period. But if you regard it as an ordinary jade of the Qianlong period to collect. If so, the price is also a bit high, you must know that in China, jades from the Qianlong period that are made of better materials than this one can’t use such a price…”

Gu Li said with a show off at this time, while Jin Muchen smiled coldly.

"Master Gu, I respect you as a senior from China, but there are still some things that are difficult to say too full. Why are you so sure that this jade pen holder is not in the possession of Qianlong?"

The corners of Gu Li's mouth turned upward, and his face finally showed disdain, a strange expression mixed with ridicule. At Fang Uncle's antique shop that day, he was completely disgraced. This little brat ridiculed himself a lot at that time, and today he finally has it. The opportunity has returned, of course he will not be polite.

"It seems that your master is also not very good? Has he never taught you simple common sense about Qianlong jade?"

Gu Li pretended to be arrogant and shook his head, and put on a high hat for himself first. Jin Muchen was not in a hurry to refute him, but just looked at him with a sneer.

Gu Li was very dissatisfied with Jin Muchen's current expression, so he didn't give up and continued.

"During the Qianlong period, the Qing army used a large number of troops in the Western Regions, and finally opened up the Silk Road again. A large number of Hetian jade materials from the frontier began to be transported into the mainland, which promoted the rapid development of jade carving technology and craftsmanship in the mainland. Therefore, the Qianlong period also became the history of ancient Chinese jade. In the most prosperous era, the carving and processing of the imperial jade wares of the Qianlong court was deeply influenced by the painting art of the inner court of the Qing Dynasty. He spared no expense in polishing, fully showing the warm and glittering beauty of Hetian jade, and the jade carvings have reached the level of perfection. So this is the historical root of why Qianlong jade in the Qing Dynasty is so popular in the market now.”

This Gu Li said in a straightforward manner, and it didn't sound like that kind of nonsense.

"But as I said before, the reason why jades from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty were so sought after was because they were made of Hetian jade seeds from the frontier. And Emperor Qianlong himself was very fond of this kind of warm and white jade, so He collects it himself, and most of the jade articles in the inscription ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ are such Hetian jade articles. And you just bought this jade pen holder. I don’t need to say more about the material used? It is a kind of jasper, Hetian jade is not related to suet white jade at all. What's more, although your tube is made of jasper, it doesn't even count Qinghai material. If I read correctly, it should be Xiuyan jade, this kind of jade and Hetian. The texture of beautiful jade is incomparable at all. So in terms of material, I conclude that it should not belong to the Qianlong imperial collection."

Gu Li said this, the smile on the corner of his mouth was even stronger, and the look of Sean next to him looking at Jin Muchen was also full of ridicule, as if he was looking at a local old hat who spent a lot of money.

"In addition, I'm talking about the pattern on your barrel. The most famous jade grinding center in the Qianlong period was Suzhou Zhuanzhu Lane. The Suzhou jades were exquisite and beautiful, and most of the palace jade craftsmen also came from here, so the carvings on the jades in the imperial collection of Qianlong. , most of the styles are also biased towards the Jiangnan culture, and the literati landscape is always the theme of these jade carvings. And now the Qianlong year jades circulating on the market, the carving styles displayed on them are mostly the same, but look at your canister The engraved picture on it. It’s actually a pattern of herdsmen and sheep, don’t you think it’s ridiculous? How could such a vulgar picture be engraved on an elegant object placed in the study?”

When Gu Li said this, Sean standing next to him couldn't help laughing. (To be continued.) xh118
