Shenhao Starts With Antique Treasure Appraisal

Tian Huacai was really satisfied after picking up this mistake.

"Brother Li, I will thank you very much later. You, you have to leave me a phone number. 17

Li Tianming didn't care, so he gave Tian Huacai his mobile phone number.

Tian Huacai carefully recorded it in his mobile phone address book.

At this time, another thing was placed on the table on the stage, which seemed to be a golden Buddha statue.

The entire image of the Buddha statue was displayed on the projection screen hanging in the underground auction venue.

The auctioneer said above: "This is a gilt statue of Sakyamuni Buddha. Anyone who is interested can come up and take a look.

There were quite a few people looking at the gilded Buddha statue, and people came up to the stage one after another.

But soon, these people shook their heads after looking at it twice, and walked down one after another, with a look of "being cheated" on their faces.

Of course Xu Xingda and Ma Junyuan also came on stage.

Ma Junyuan didn't touch it, just glanced at it and walked down.

"What's going on at this auction? You're fooling people with new goods!" Ma Junyuan said angrily.

Xu Xingda smiled and said: "Hey, this is not a formal auction. Whether you will be fooled or not depends on your eyesight."

At this time, Tian Huacai said to Li Tianming: "How about we also go to Palm Eye?"

Li Tianming nodded and walked onto the stage one after another with Tian Huacai.

I saw that the gilt Buddha statue was indeed well made and the workmanship was very detailed.

Sakyamuni's face is also very round, and you can see his kind appearance from a distance. The lines on his eyebrows and eyes are very detailed, including his bun, which is all blue.

However, Tian Huacai, who was walking in front, only glanced twice and shook his head.

Tian Huacai's expression was the same as the others, as if he was about to have a big meal but was served a bowl of shit.

"What are you doing! This gilt Buddha statue is too new, it doesn't even have a scratch."

After saying that, Tian Huacai made the decision.

During the preservation process of gilt Buddha statues, firstly, they are afraid of bumps. Although many of these statues are made of metal, bumps can cause pits, which greatly affects the appearance, and delicate parts such as fingers may be broken directly.

The second fear is that hand touch, including sweat and other residues on the hands, will cause great damage to the gilding process on the surface of the Buddha statue.

However, no matter how carefully they are preserved, as long as the gilt Buddha statues have been handed down for a long time, they will experience these problems, so the surface quality will definitely be affected.

Li Tianming has the skill of "seeing" at a glance. Of course he knew that this gilt Buddha statue was so new and almost spotless.

Basically, it can be concluded that this gilt Buddha statue has existed for about ten years at the longest.

However, Li Tianming felt something was wrong.

The "work" of this statue of Sakyamuni does not look like a modern technique.

Especially the shape of the face should be typical of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Tianming picked up the Buddha statue and turned it over.

When Li Tianming saw the base, he was stunned.

I saw a circle of cinnabar mud on the base of the Buddha statue.

In Li Tianming's mind, the word "Buddha statues are hidden" suddenly came to mind.

Normally, when craftsmen make Buddhist statues with religious themes like this, they will hollow out the middle, but have a back cover, where grains or scriptures are placed.

In another case, worshipers may hide gold and silver jewelry or other valuable items inside.

Li Tianming carefully inspected the circle of cinnabar mud. It was in an ancient state and was far different from the gilded Buddha statue itself.

There is only one situation that can explain this situation. This gilded Buddha statue was renovated by the worshipper.

What could be hidden inside? Li Tianming's heart skipped a beat and he quickly used the "All Things Identification System" to identify it.

[Item name]: Gilt Buddha statue

[Item material]: Copper: 85%; gold amalgam: 10%; silk: 5%

[Item value]: Extremely high

[Purchase price]: Sixteen thousand soft RMB

[Sold price]: 18 million soft RMB

Li Tianming was shocked when he saw the selling price. Eighteen million soft RMB, how is this possible!?

Even if this is a gilt Buddha statue from the Ming Dynasty, is it impossible to be worth that much?

There is only one explanation. The things hidden inside are much more valuable than the Buddha statue itself.

Li Tianming looked at the "item material" item again. Copper is the main material, "gold amalgam" is simply a gilt compound, and the third item is "silk cloth"

Could this piece of silk cloth be worth a lot of money?

Li Tianming was a little confused.

"Sir, if you have finished reading, please return to your seat.

Li Tianming turned around and saw that the auctioneer was urging people, so he quickly put down the gilded Buddha statue and returned to his seat.

"Brother Li, why did you look at it for so long? Did you fall in love with that Buddha statue?" Tian Huacai asked casually.

Of course, Li Tianming would not tell the truth, and smiled: "I really like that Buddha statue, the shape and workmanship are good.

Tian Huacai patted his chest: "Brother Li, since you like it, just bid, and I will pay the auction price for you!"

"."This...is inappropriate."

"What's inappropriate? Not many people will buy this gilded Buddha statue, and it won't cost much!" Tian Huacai said cheerfully.

The auctioneer said loudly: "Dear guests, the auction of this gilt Buddha statue begins now. The starting price is fifteen thousand yuan!"

Immediately, someone started booing: "What kind of crap is this, and you're selling it for 15,000? Are you crazy about money?"

"Yes, yes, our village can make these broken statues. We can get as many as we want!"

"Don't tell me, just treat it as a handicraft and an ornament."

The auctioneer was a little embarrassed standing on the stage. If no one bids, the auction will be unsuccessful.

At this time, Li Tianming raised his hand: "Sixteen thousand!"

When the auctioneer heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, shouted twice symbolically, and dropped the hammer.

"Sixteen thousand soft RMB belongs to this gentleman!"

Everyone in the audience looked at Li Tianming as if they were looking at a madman.

Almost everyone is wondering whether this young man is a rich second generation who came here to play with tickets and spent more than 10,000 yuan to buy a modern Zhao Haodai handicraft.

Especially Xu Xingda looked down upon him.

"Teacher Ma, have you seen that this guy is just pretending to be cool and thinks he can make a lot of money just by spending 10,000 yuan!"

Ma Junyuan also snorted coldly, expressing his agreement.

Only Li Tianming knew that this Buddha statue was worth his money.

Soon someone came over and took notes on Li Tianming.

Name, phone number, etc., and after the auction is over, you can pay and pick up the items.

Tian Huacai actually kept his word and said to the person who took the record: "He will keep the money with me. Do you know who I am?"

The man nodded quickly: "Yes, Boss Tian, ​​who doesn't know him?"

Li Tianming no longer refused, after all, he had helped Boss Tian.

Let him pick up the slack and pay a small price.

Li Tianming especially wants to know what is hidden in the Buddha statue, and wants the auction to end as soon as possible. .
