Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

It had been more than two hours since he walked out of the Bronze Ware Museum. Li Mo looked up at the sky. The scorching sun made him squint his eyes, and he still felt a little swollen, but it shouldn't be a big problem.

"Go to lunch first, and then go shopping in the afternoon."

Li Mo rubbed his stomach, and felt the phone vibrate before he had gone far, took it out and saw that it was Niu Sanpang. I haven't contacted for some days, and I don't know if that guy has returned to Kyoto.

As soon as the connection was made, I heard Niu Sanpang's eager voice: "Young Master Li, do me a favor."

"What's the matter, are you in a hurry to hear the voice?"

"Can you not be in a hurry, I have encountered four porcelains, but I am not sure, so I would like to ask you to help me identify them. If possible, I will invite you to come to Kyoto."

"When did you return to Kyoto?"

"Oh, Young Master Li, it doesn't matter when I return to Kyoto, what matters is whether you can get to Kyoto as quickly as possible?"

Li Mo couldn't help teasing him and said, "The fastest time? How fast do you want."

"If you can come tonight, brother will give you a five thousand red envelope."

"You're so generous, all right, you can send me the address. I'm in Kyoto right now, and I'll rush over to meet you right away."

"Li Shao, you are really my good brother, the address will be sent to you immediately."

Li Mo hung up the phone and immediately received a text message. Judging from this address, it should be a high-end villa area, and I don't know if it is his base camp.

Before he had time to eat lunch, Li Mo took a taxi to the meeting point. When he arrived at the gate of the villa area, the security guard refused to let him in. Li Mo made a phone call, and within two minutes the security guard who stopped him invited him in with a smile.

As soon as he entered the community, he saw Niu Sanpang running towards us aggressively. It was really embarrassing for him to run so fast with his fat body, even when he got close to him, he was panting heavily.

"Three fat, you have to lose weight."

"It seems... It seems that it is impossible not to lose weight. I almost lost my breath after running a few hundred meters." Niu Sanpang patted his chest, his face was flushed, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Would you like to take a rest on the side of the road, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch your breath."

"It's okay, let's walk back slowly."

"You live here?"

"I bought it when I was about to graduate from college, and my mother secretly gave me the money. I originally wanted to marry my girlfriend who fell in love in college as soon as I graduated, but I didn't know that they thought I was poor, so they found an excuse and kicked me out."

"Hahaha, you didn't look for her later, show her your muscles?"

"She's already in someone's arms, and it doesn't make any sense for me to show off my muscles. Li Mo, when you get home, help me out. There are four porcelain wares in total, but I only picked one because I didn't know what to do. It’s the bottom, so I want to ask you to help check it out.”

"Okay, I'll play by ear when the time comes. Do you have anything to eat at home? You can eat noodles or something. I rushed over before I had lunch. I'm hungry and feel weak."

"Is instant noodles okay? Add a few poached eggs at most, nothing else, I basically don't eat at home."

"I can only eat instant noodles, hurry up."

The detached villa Niu Sanpang lives in is in the middle of the community. The distance between the villas is relatively long, the sunshine is abundant, and there are gardens in front of and behind the house. The price of such a villa is not low.

Xu Jiaxin stood at the door waiting for them, and when she saw Li Mo she nodded with a smile, her complexion was good, and she probably got more recognition from the Niu family during her stay in the capital.

"Congratulations Miss Xu, it seems that I should be able to drink your wedding wine at the end of the year."

Xu Jiaxin's face showed a shyness.

"Li Shao, it's not that fast, not that fast." Niu Sanpang rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

Xu Jiaxin immediately rolled her eyes at him, giving him a warning.

"Young Master Li, please come in."

The weather outside is hot and dry, but it is much cooler inside. The lobby on the first floor is very spacious, and the decoration is simple yet stylish. The huge living room is a sunken apartment, and there are three steps of stone stairs. There are three people sitting on the sofa and whispering to each other, and there is a long-necked ball bottle on the coffee table.

Seeing Niu Sanpang bringing a young man in, the three people on the sofa stood up quickly.

"Wu Min, this is my good brother Li Mo. I was lucky this time, he happened to be in the capital, so he rushed over immediately after receiving the call."

"Mr. Li, hello." Wu Min took the initiative to stretch out her right hand. She had slender fingers, fair skin, and a Cartier bracelet on her wrist.

"Hello."

The two of them took it back as soon as they joined hands lightly.

"Li Shao, Wu Min is my senior sister, and these two are her friends, and they brought the porcelain here. You sit first, and I will ask Jiaxin to cook some instant noodles for you."

Xu Jiaxin clenched her fists at him to protest, but she still obediently walked into the kitchen.

And Wu Min obviously had doubts about Li Mo's age and ability, but since Niu Sanpang found him, whether he can handle the two depends on his ability.

"Mr. Li, my friend bought this porcelain when he was traveling in Great Britain. Mr. Niu said that you are good at porcelain appraisal, so please take a look first."

"I can't say I'm good at it, but I opened an antique shop at home, specializing in selling porcelain, so I have some experience." Li Mo picked up the porcelain on the coffee table and looked at it for a while, "Can I ask how much you bought this porcelain?

"Two thousand euros, converted into about 20,000 domestically." A slightly fat man replied.

"Then how much are you going to sell?" Li Mo put the porcelain back on the coffee table and continued to ask calmly.

"Actually, we are not proficient in porcelain. At that time, we thought the workmanship of this porcelain was very exquisite and beautiful, so we bought it back. After returning to China, an elder said that this might be a real antique, so let us find someone to identify it."

"Is there any identification conclusion?"

"We only spent 20,000 yuan to buy this porcelain, but we asked the owners of several antique shops, and they said that it would cost at least 30,000 yuan to authenticate. Mr. Li, don't you think this is ridiculous? If it is not an antique, we will Wouldn't it be a big loss?"

Li Mo smiled and said: "This thing is indeed an antique. The porcelain in the middle and late Qing Dynasty is called Tianqiu vase. The whole shape is very grand. You can see that the piles of porcelain on it are very gorgeous, and the patterns on the surface are called Taishi and Shaoshi. A total of five lions symbolizes five generations living under the same roof.”

"In ancient times, things were not just made of nonsense, they were all very particular, and they all had certain meanings. From the grand master to the grandson, they have been high officials for generations. This kind of porcelain is very rare in the market at present. But such things are usually in pairs, do you only see one?"

"There is only one." The slightly fat man immediately cheered up when he heard that it was an antique from the middle and late Qing Dynasty, "Mr. Li, how much do you think this antique is worth?"

Li Mo shook his head and said, "This Tianqiu vase has no base price, which means that it is not made in an official kiln, but a fine product made in a private kiln. If there is a pair of Tianqiu vases, they will be auctioned because they have the meaning of five generations under one roof." It might be worth more than 100,000 yuan, but there is only one at present, so the price cannot go up, maybe it can be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

He didn't want to hurt a few people too much, so he didn't say the last sentence, that is, maybe no one is willing to buy it, so he can only keep it at home and pass it on.

"It's only twenty to thirty thousand. I thought that if it was a genuine antique, it would be worth hundreds of thousands, or even millions."

Sitting beside Niu Sanpang sighed in disappointment.

"Boss Niu said just now that you have brought a total of four porcelains, can you take out the remaining three and have a look."
