Chapter 19 This is an antique
At first glance, the hairpin looks a bit like an antique. The craftsmanship is not exquisite, but it feels a bit rough. However, the jade quality is very good, the whole body is light green, and the texture of the jade inside can be seen. There is a lotus flower inlaid in the shape.
A round white pearl. Although Jian Jichen didn't know much about jewelry, he could tell that this pearl was not plastic.
The lotus petals of the hairpin are hollow, and three gold chains hang down. The beads on the chains are as big as rice grains, and they are colorful and beautiful.
Jian Jichen took a photo of the hairpin on his mobile phone and posted it on Facebook. He just looked it up when he was bored. After posting the photo, he fried a steak, poured half a glass of red wine, and had dinner quietly by himself.
Afterwards, he turned on the TV and watched the news on the economic channel.
There was a "beep..." sound in the space. It was news coming in from pro. Jian Jichen put his notebook on his lap and saw a message from Facebook. He listened to the news and looked at messenger. Someone actually wanted to buy the hairpin he posted online.
, the other party was probably a lady. First she gave a like expression, and then offered 10,000 yuan. She even raised the price without even seeing the item.
Jian Jichen immediately noticed something unusual. He held the hairpin in his hand and looked left and right. The other party asked him to open the live broadcast. She wanted to see the hairpin, but Jian Jichen refused.
The other party threw a big question mark over, but Jian Jichen ignored it.
I opened Skype and sent the picture of the hairpin to an acquaintance who specializes in collecting. This person is in Mocheng.
After a while, a message came from Skype. The other party also asked for a video to see something. Jian Jichen recorded a video and sent it. After a while, the other party asked where he was? He came right away.
Jian Jichen felt more and more that this hairpin had a lot of background. Although it didn't have any diamonds, it didn't seem to be just any worthless thing.
Jian Jichen then thought of Xia Ningmeng again. 200 yuan should be enough for her to take the car home, right? But when more than 10,000 yuan was left with him, Jian Jichen didn't have the mentality to get a big deal.
The little girl's family will definitely come to kill the valuable things.
Jian Jichen waited for more than an hour, and an acquaintance from the collection arrived.
This man's surname was Fu, and he was a university professor. Jian Jichen had only had tea with him twice, and knew that he was an expert in antiques and collections. Usually people in this field were well versed in the past and present, and were knowledgeable.
It's just a pity that he is a businessman and he also smells of copper.
What Professor Fu must bring with him when he goes out is a portable microscope, the size of a mobile phone, with 200 times magnification, complete photo and video functions.
More than twenty minutes later, the sixty-year-old associate professor finally raised his head from the hairpin. He said in a teacher's characteristic slow and low tone: "Master Jian, this is an ancient relic!"
"Antiquities?" Jian Jichen didn't know much about it, and the associate professor said: "I can't determine the exact year of it yet, it's at least five hundred years old. Where did you get it?"
When Jian Jichen heard that it was five hundred years old, it was something from the Ming Dynasty? Jian Jichen did not answer where Professor Fu got the hairpin, but frowned solemnly,
Professor Fu said: "200,000, how about giving it to me?"
Jian Jichen asked back: "If it were you, would you sell it?"
What Jian Jichen said is, do you think I, Jian Jichen, look like someone who is short of 200,000 yuan? Who doesn’t know that antiques become more valuable as they are kept? Things dating back 300 years of the Qing Dynasty can be sold for tens of millions in auction houses.
A hairpin from the Ming Dynasty? You just pay 200,000?
