Jianbao Gold Finger

Chapter 12 A Snuff Bottle

After getting rid of the sticky dog ​​skin plaster, Ji Ji, Zhang Xiaotian and Chao Xi were all more comfortable!Seeing the crowds all around, you can finally stroll around this country-famous antique market quietly day and night!

"Okay, let's just walk along here, and I will tell you when I meet a store I know well!"

Zhang Xiaotian pointed to the people in the market and said,

"it is good!"

Morning and evening nodded in agreement,

"Hey, there are a lot of people there, business seems to be good! Go and see..."

Day and night, she saw a small stall surrounded by many people. Relying on her thinness, she turned her head and got in dexterously.

Equation also stretched his neck and feet and looked into the crowd. He subconsciously stretched his fingers a few times, hesitated again and again, and then as if made a great determination, he also got into the crowd!

When I came to the stall, I saw that the owner of this stall was talking about selling the things on his stall. I looked down and found that the stall was nothing but small pens, inkstones, tea bowls, teapots, and rosary bracelets. There are really many crafts and styles!And the reason there are so many people in front of this stall is not because there are so many styles of things on the stall, but because...cheap!

The equation only stood for a while, and then I heard that the stall owner’s mouth had never been idle.

"In the early Ming Dynasty, the price of the inkstone was...1200 yuan!"

"A set of purple clay teapots in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the transaction price...1400 yuan!"

"A woodcarving hairpin from Zhichengtang, Huizhou, Anhui, sold for...900 yuan!"

Listening to the stall owner’s quotation, the equation and Zhang Xiaotian were a little bit dumbfounded,

"This stall owner regards himself here as an auction house, right? It's really funny. There are still so many people coming to join in. How can he sell his things so cheaply? How can it be true? These people still believe... ..."

The equation is very funny,

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, there are rules in the antique circle, you can not buy them, but you can't say! you are those who buy things really come to buy things?"

Zhang Xiaotian covered his mouth and whispered to the equation,

"Then don't buy anything... why are you here?"

The equation is "silly and sweet",

"They are'childcare'!"

Chaoxi turned around and explained to the equation that she was a clear man about this matter in the antique business.

"Oh... what I said..."

The equation suddenly realized, and the more he said that, he got more and more interested. He squeezed forward vigorously and began to scan the stall. His fingers lightly swept over the objects on the stall. Cold, cold, or cold!The equation curled his lips, and sure enough, in this kind of stall...nothing is true!

But just when the equation was about to retract his hand, he suddenly felt the familiar burning sensation on the tip of his index finger, but this time, the heat in his fingers was not as strong as the previous few times!

In fact, the equation has been roughly guessed before. The older, more precious, and more spiritual the object touched by your finger is, the stronger and hotter it will be, and vice versa!

However, as the saying goes, this grasshopper meat is also meat. If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles. If you don't accumulate small currents, you can't become a river!

The equation moved his hand back to the object that just felt the heat, and touched it one by one. Finally, he found the object!

It was a humble snuff bottle left in the corner!

A snuff bottle actually refers to a container for snuff. It is loved by people because it is small and easy to carry.In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, snuff was introduced into China, and snuff boxes gradually became Oriental, resulting in snuff bottles.Nowadays, people’s habit of using snuff has almost disappeared, but snuff bottles have been handed down as a kind of exquisite work of art, and they are always prosperous!

Snuff bottles are made of rich materials, including porcelain, copper, ivory, jade, agate, amber, etc., and blue and white, colorful, porcelain, nesting, ingenious work, internal painting and other techniques are often used on snuff bottles. The elegant ones are praised as "miniature works of art that gather the great achievements of various craftsmanship from various countries"!

The equation carefully looked at the snuff bottle in his hand. It looked like it was carved with jade as a material. But as for what jade is, the equation will not be able to tell for a while, although geological exploration will also come into contact with jade. Mine, but after all he is not professional yet!

The surface of the snuff bottle is carved with several exquisite chrysanthemum patterns. Because the body itself is very small, these chrysanthemums are even more delicately carved. The dark green leaves and tender yellow stamens make the picture lifelike, as if they are really a few. Aoju swayed in the autumn wind!But it may be because the material is nephrite. The surface of the snuff bottle is a bit rough because it is not well protected, and the color is also slightly dim. This also shows that this thing...should be old The object, so I went to look at the bottom of the snuff bottle, which was clearly engraved with the four characters "Qianlong Nianzhi"!

"Brother, you are so insightful. The snuff bottle you chose was an object from the Qianlong period. You see, this snuff bottle is so intact even with the metal lid. It's not easy! This......"

"How much does it cost?"

The equation interrupted the stall owner’s boasting and asked the price straightforwardly.

"2000, don't say anything!"

The stall owner clearly marked the price,

"Hey, Cheng Zi, do you really want to buy it?"

Seeing the equation, Zhang Xiaotian asked for the price. It seemed that he was about to make a move. He hurriedly pulled him to ask.

"This stall is not reliable, don't be stupid! Think you've picked it up, and you won't know the north and the south after eating the sweetness!"

The equation certainly knows that Zhang Xiaotian is from his own point of view and thinks of himself, but he still has confidence in his fingers.

"Don't worry, I know it!"

The equation pressed Zhang Xiaotian’s hand to signal his peace of mind.

Seeing the equation day and night looking for a snuff bottle from the stall, she leaned forward and took a closer look. Suddenly, she wrinkled her eyebrows, raised her head and looked at the equation around her with a strange look, and saw him. Without changing the face, he talked about the price with the stall owner indifferently!

"Actually, I don't understand antiques, just looking at this snuff bottle is very pleasing to the eye, your price... can it be a little..."

The equation looks embarrassing. In fact, the equation is really not reluctant to buy the hundreds of dollars, but it is so natural that he does not want to buy it, and it is so easy to make others suspicious, as if he was going for this snuff bottle.

"Brother, I don't have to worry about selling the things here, don't you bargain with me? This is an antique, sold to you for 2,000 yuan, you have to double it everywhere!"

The appearance of the stall owner looks more difficult than the equation,

"What you said is not worried about selling... just to find a group of childcare, pretend here..."

"1500, brother, really can't be lower!"

The stall owner hurriedly interrupted the equation and blinked straight at the equation.

"Well, 1500 is 1500!"

It is estimated that this is the last offer of the stall owner. The equation neatly took out 1,500 yuan from the wallet, which he took out from the card after he got 850,000 yesterday!

"A snuff bottle in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the transaction price...1500 yuan!"

The stall owner took the money and immediately opened his mouth. The stall was still crowded. After the equation got what he wanted, he took Zhaoxi and Zhang Xiaotian and left in a hurry!

As she walked, she suddenly stopped day and night. She looked at the equation in front of her with an expression of emotions saying bad.

"Miss Chao Xi, you...what's wrong?"

The equation was suddenly stared at by such a peerless beauty, and she couldn't help but feel a little hairy.

"With so many odds and ends, you saw the snuff bottle all at once. Where did you learn your skills...where did you learn it?"

Day and night finally asked her own question,

"Appreciation treasure? Where can I learn about the treasure? I just think this snuff bottle is pretty good-looking, so I bought it for myself! If I know, where can I bargain with him? I just ran away with it! Huh? Miss Chaoxi, listen to what you mean, my snuff bottle... is it really a treasure?"

Seeing that he questioned himself in the morning and evening, Ji Ji's heart suddenly raised his throat and hurriedly turned away.

If you think about the equation day and night carefully, I think it makes sense. Seeing his appearance as a brat, he doesn't seem to have this ability. It's just that the young man has strong hands and has better luck!So she took the snuff bottle from the equation and looked at it carefully.

"Is it a baby...I'm not sure, but depending on the craftsmanship and texture, it must be more than 1500 yuan!"

Although they are well-known big collectors in the collection industry, they are not professional after all. They are not as proficient as their fathers and uncles, so they dare not make any claims.

"Hey, don't guess here, you two, it's not easy to know if this thing is true or not..."

Zhang Xiaotian suddenly said to the equation with a smile!
