Antiques with golden eyes

"120,000?

"Brother, 120,000 is not enough. If I sell the items left by my ancestors with this little money, I really won't be able to explain to my ancestors." Li Haiyang looked miserable and almost shed tears and wiped his nose. .

Shen Yu looked at Xu Duofu, blinked first, and then turned to look at the large jar of Yuan blue and white figures on the appreciation table.

Xu Duofu was a little confused at first, but he immediately understood what Shen Yu meant, "Shen Yu, Lao Li, on the one hand you really like this wooden box, but on the other hand you are really short of money. Let me give you a price, just 200,000." Okay."

"200,000? Mr. Xu, the price you mentioned is acceptable." Li Haiyang immediately became energetic.

But Xu Duofu clenched his teeth again, "200,000, my brother seems to have lost some money again, so let's do this, Lao Li, you can sell him something else."

Li Haiyang was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Buy one, get one free?"

"Yes, give Shen Yu the blue and white jar on your desk and ask him to transfer you 200,000 yuan directly. Everyone will be happy."

Li Haiyang was stunned for a few seconds again, and suddenly showed a look of realization, "The drunkard's intention is not to drink. I've been working on it for a long time. Do you two want to buy my big can of Yuan blue and white figures?"

Shen Yu looked at Li Haiyang with a half-smile, "No, that big blue and white jar is really good. If I'm not mistaken, it must be a genuine imitation.

"But I like this box better. Duofu doesn't understand antiques, and he doesn't know the true value of your big blue and white jar."

"Oh."

On the surface, Li Haiyang suddenly realized that he had regained his calm demeanor, but in his heart he really felt kind to Shen Yu.

How could he, an old man, believe what Shen Yu said?

In his heart, he had already concluded that Shen Yu and Xu Duofu were working together to trick him, "It's impossible to buy one get one free on that big blue and white jar. I, Lao Li, won't talk nonsense. The price of this treasure box is 180,000 yuan. Shen Brother, if you want it, transfer the money now. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want it, we are still friends.”

"Okay, deal."

Shen Yu took out two bundles of red hundred-yuan bills from his shoulder bag, took out two bundles, and threw the remaining bundles of banknotes to Li Haiyang without even tearing them.

Originally, Shen Yu didn't bring any cash. Pei Yuqin heard that Shen Yu was going to go to his old house with Chen Guangnan, so she took 600,000 cash from her safe and gave it to him.

At the same time, the nine million from the bloodstone seal was also transferred to Shen Yu's personal account.

Generally speaking, Pei Yuqin really has nothing to say about Shen Yu.

Now the money in Shen Yu's account is close to 20 million, which can be said to be sufficient cash flow.

As long as you don't buy any top-notch antiques and just use them to pick out leaks, anything you buy will be more than enough.

It's a pity that Li Haiyang doesn't have any ancient paintings here. If he can pick up an ancient painting, it will immediately solve Gao Gu's urgent need.

"Shen Yu, this thing really can't be opened?"

Mr. Wu, Jing Shuiyang, and Chen Guangnan were all surrounding the large Yuan blue and white figure jar. Xu Duofu pulled Shen Yu aside and asked in a low voice.

Regarding Xu Duofu, Shen Yu had nothing to hide, and also lowered his voice, "Of course you can open it. If you can't open it, will I spend 180,000 to buy it?

"I said fat man, you don't really believe what I said just now, do you?

"Brother, this box is worth at most 35,000 yuan based on the material alone. Why should I give him an advantage if we are not related to each other?"

Xu Duofu grinned and said, "I just looked at this box. There is no lock, no mechanism, not even a gap. It can't be smashed. How to open it? I don't think you can open it anyway, unless you cut it."

Shen Yu immediately became happy when he heard this, "Fat man, you are still trying to play thirty-six tricks on me. If you want to know what treasure is in this box, just tell me, and you are beating around the bush with me."

Xu Duofu was not embarrassed when his worries were revealed, "Can you tell me how to open it first?"

"Have you seen these six pictures?" Shen Yu asked, pointing to several pictures on the treasure box.

Xu Duofu stepped forward, glanced at the treasure box carefully, and asked strangely: "I just looked at these patterns. Although the carvings are exquisite, they are just auspicious patterns.

"It's not just on this wooden box, it's also found on some calligraphy and paintings, New Year pictures, embroidery, porcelain, wood carvings, bamboo carvings, and stone carvings. There's nothing strange about it."

"Take a closer look."

Xu Duofu picked up the treasure box again. This time he even looked at the carvings on the bottom. After putting it down, he shook his head, "I really can't see anything."

"This box is not without gaps, but is cleverly covered by the patterns on it.

"And it's also coated with gold paint, so it looks seamless. The first step to opening it is to find the mechanism."

Xu Duofu: "Institution?"

Shen Yu nodded, pointed to the three patterns of "Magu Offers Longevity" on the front of the box, "Fu Lu Long Shou Xi" on the back, and "Blessings from Heavenly Officials" on the top and said: "The mechanisms on this box are nothing more than these. Fairy figure."

"The Heavenly Official Gives Blessings" refers to the Heavenly Official among the three Taoist gods of heaven, earth, and water. It is known that the Heavenly Official bestows blessings, the Earthly Official forgives sins, and the Water Official relieves misfortune.

The heavenly officials in New Year paintings or some portraits often wear Ruyi Prime Minister hats, have thick eyebrows and big eyes, have majestic faces, have five long beards, wear dragon robes with jade belts, hold jade Ruyi in their arms, and come to the world with a smile to give gifts. Wish you all kinds of blessings.

The one on this treasure box is similar.

Shen Yu tapped lightly on the relief jade Ruyi in Tianguan's arms.

Unfortunately, it is solid and there is no movement in the wooden box.

Shen Yu was not in a hurry and looked at the "Ma Gu's Birthday Presentation Picture" on the front of the wooden box.

The image in the painting is a female immortal in palace attire holding a jade ganoderma in her hand.

Magu is a Taoist immortal, also known as the Shouxian Empress or Xuji Chongying Zhenren.

According to legend, there were several crystal clear springs in the mountains where Magu lived, and Magu used the water from these springs to brew Ganoderma lucidum wine.

On the Queen Mother’s birthday, Magu went to Tiangong Yaotai with her homemade Ganoderma lucidum wine to celebrate the Queen Mother’s birthday.

The Queen Mother was very happy after tasting Ganoderma lucidum wine, so she named Magu the title of Xu Ji Chong Ying Zhenren.

In ancient times, Magu statues were often given to women when celebrating their birthdays, symbolizing longevity.

Shen Yu also tapped lightly on the Jade Ganoderma lucidum. It was also solid and not the keyhole of the mechanism.

Finally, Shen Yu set his sights on the picture of the Four Gods of Fortune, Luxury, Shou and Joy on the back of the wooden box.

Fu, Lu, Shou and Xi are the four gods under the Jade Emperor who are in charge of fame, wealth, longevity and good luck.

It is also known as the three-star god, the lucky star, the lucky star, the longevity star, and the god of joy.

The lucky star is the year star, which can bring blessings and auspiciousness. Sometimes it coincides with the heavenly official who bestows blessings, and is the same god.

People often say that the lucky star shines brightly, good luck lasts, five blessings come to the door, and good luck and wealth are all related to the lucky star.

Luxing is Wenquxing, who is in charge of official positions and positions, and is the star official in charge of fame, fortune and wealth.

In the ancient painting, the person wearing official robes and riding a fairy deer is Lu Xing. Since Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty opened the imperial examination, his official career has been prosperous, he has been promoted to a higher position, and the three yuan grades are all related to him.

The longevity star is even more familiar. In movies and TV shows, the image of an old man holding a fairy staff and a fairy peach, with a white beard and white hair, and a bulging forehead, smiling all day long, is the longevity star. The longevity star symbolizes longevity.

The longevity star was the first to appear in the fortune, wealth and longevity, and the longevity star temple began to exist in the Qin Dynasty.

Legend has it that the longevity peach of the longevity star is the longevity fairy fruit at the Queen Mother's Peach Festival. Journey to the West says that the peach blooms every 3,000 years and bears fruit every 3,000 years. After eating it, you will become an immortal and live forever.

The God of Joy is the god who brings happiness. In ancient times, the God of Joy often appeared during weddings. In ancient times, when the bride got on the sedan chair, the mouth of the sedan chair must be aligned with the God of Joy, which is called the "God of Welcome". This way, the couple will be harmonious after the marriage. , grow old together.

Compared with the three stars of blessing, wealth and longevity, the image of the God of Joy is not fixed, and is mostly an old man with a kind appearance wearing a military hat.

After thinking for a while, Shen Yu reached out and nodded at the fairy peach held by the birthday star.

Bang!

At this moment, a crisp sound reached Shen Yu's ears.

Shen Yu turned around and saw that Chen Guangnan had accidentally dropped the fairy mirror to the ground.

However, antiques such as bronze mirrors are very strong and cannot be broken easily. They are not valuable in the collection world. Everyone seems to be indifferent.

They don't care, but Shen Yu does.

Because at this moment, a ball of deep purple light suddenly appeared three inches above the large Yuan blue and white figure jar.

The precious light emerges, dazzling the eyes.
