A treasure-appraisal maniac

Lu Fei took a sharp knife and gently inserted it into the gap inlaid with rubies.

Pushing and pulling back and forth a few times, the gelatin that had dried for hundreds of years under the gem was cut open.

Then he pried open the gold claws inlaid with gems and easily took out the ruby ​​the size of his little finger.

Then, he used a knife to scrape off the glue on the scabbard, pressed it with his thumb, and suddenly screamed in surprise.

At this time, Lu Fei was in a very excited state and continued to clean the gaps in the corners with a knife.

After cleaning everything, Thumbs pressed down hard, and something incredible happened.

It turns out that the gem surface is a pure gold scabbard.

Extremely smooth, without any grain.

There is just a gold groove of less than a millimeter.

But under the pressure of Lu Fei's thumb, the golden groove dented again.

The dent was only about a millimeter, but there was an obvious gap on the side of the scabbard.

Seeing this scene, Jack next to him was stunned and almost screamed.

Wake up and cover your mouth quickly!

At this time, Lu Fei has entered a state of selflessness, seeming to know nothing about Jack's existence, and continues to explore the mystery.

Lu Fei took out a hair-thin steel needle from his tool bag.

But if you look closely, you can see that there is a small barb groove at the tip of the steel needle.

Lu Fei put the steel needle into the gap and felt it for a moment, then pushed upward slightly, and then slowly pulled out the steel needle.

As the steel needle was withdrawn at a constant speed, a rectangular gold sheet with a width of five millimeters and a thickness of less than one millimeter came out of the gap.

The gold flakes were pulled out as a whole, and the length turned out to be about six centimeters.

Incredibly, this gold sheet is still folded, and the folded edges can be clearly seen.

"Hey!"

"There really is something!"

"Ha ha!"

"Why didn't I notice it earlier?"

"It's so damned!"

Lu Fei laughed in surprise, but Jack next to him was already numb.

At this time, Lu Fei also felt Jack's presence.

Turning around to look back, he instinctively held the gold sheet tightly in his hand and asked the question with a gloomy expression.

"Jack?"

"How will you be here?"

With this question, Jack suddenly woke up from his stupor.

He awkwardly pointed to the steaming coffee on the desk and said.

"Mr. Lu Fei, you just called me and asked me to deliver coffee."

"After that, I saw you used magical techniques to find this thing from the scabbard, and I was a little shocked for a while."

"Sorry, it is my fault."

"But don't worry, I will never tell anyone."

"This is the principle of my life." Jack said fearfully.

After looking at the coffee on the table, Lu Fei's expression softened.

"oh!"

"I remembered."

"Sorry, I'm too nervous."

"Mr. Jack, don't be stressed. It's not your fault."

"I completely trust your character."

Then, Lu Fei chuckled.

"Mr. Jack, what do you think of what you just saw?"

"magic!"

"It's incredible!"

"I have long heard that Mr. Lu Fei is very knowledgeable and talented. He is not only a treasure appraiser but also a master of heavenly craftsmanship."

"I guess you are the only one in the world who can do this kind of technique."

"But I really don't understand, how did you discover that there is a layer underneath the gem?"

“You know, this isn’t wood and plastic;

This is high-density metallic gold! Jack asked in surprise.

"hehe!"

"Actually, it's nothing."

"Come, sit down and talk." .??.

Lu Fei asked Jack to sit down, took a sip of coffee and said excitedly.

"Last year, the Wade family asked me to help restore a knife."

"When I went there, I discovered that the knife they had was exactly the same as mine."

"However, their knives are broken knives."

"After the restoration was completed, Wade's father Camby asked me to help find out what was special about the knife."

"I've been studying it for a long time, but I still can't find any clues."

"But judging from their expressions, that knife is definitely not simple."

"Then, by chance, I found two more identical knives in Malaysia and China."

"At that time, even I was shocked."

"I know that the Wade family attaches great importance to that broken knife, so I traded that average-looking golden knife with them in exchange for a good treasure."

"After that, your boss, the Xiao family and Wade's family came to me several times to trade for this knife."

"So, I pay more attention to this knife."

"The three of them have come to me many times, and they will pay any price for this knife. Any fool knows that this knife is extraordinary."

"Perhaps there is an incredible secret hidden there."

"Reminiscent of Wade's father's words, I suspect there is something weird about this knife."

"I've been studying this knife a lot recently, but I haven't found anything special about it."

"Today I had a sudden idea and studied the scabbard carefully, and sure enough I discovered the secret."

"I just felt the force of my hand inch by inch and found that this gemstone is different from other gemstones."

"There is a slight elasticity underneath this gem, so I found the secret."

"Of course, this feeling can only be experienced by people like us who are sensitive to antiques, and ordinary people cannot feel it."

"hey-hey!"

"Jack, you are simply my lucky star!"

"Not only does he have advanced massage techniques, but he can also play chess with me to relieve my boredom."

"What's even more incredible is that during my time with you, I discovered the secret of this knife."

"If I find out what the secrets of this golden sword are, then the value of my sword will be even greater."

"hey-hey!"

"If you are willing to follow me, I will tell Mr. Quasi later and ask you to follow me back to China."

"Don't worry, whatever treatment Ques gives you, I will triple it for you."

"What do you think?" Lu Fei asked excitedly.

After hearing what Lu Fei said, Jack's bright sapphire eyes flashed with excitement.

However, there was no change in his expression at all.

Jack bowed slightly.

"Thank you Mr. Lu Fei for the compliment, but this old slave is used to living in his master's house."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to adapt to the new environment for a while."

"I'm old, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you for a few more years."

"So, I can only live up to your love, Mr. Lu Fei."

"But don't worry, whenever you come to London for vacation in the future, I will definitely ask the master to come and serve you."

Lu Fei shook his head regretfully, took out his checkbook, wrote a cash check for one million dollars and handed it to Jack.

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions and cannot be forced to do so."

"Since Mr. Jack doesn't want to change the environment, I have no choice but to respect your choice."

"However, I still want to thank you for bringing me good luck."

"I will leave London tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If you accept this check, consider it a small token of my gratitude!"
