"Xiao He, what kind of gem is this?! So beautiful!"
When He Qing opened the cloth bag and showed the treasure he took out to the Su family, Su's father and others' eyes widened immediately, and they all looked at it attentively.
What is displayed there is a small gem. Although the gem is small, it is crystal clear and dazzling.
Mr. Su seemed to see something at a glance and couldn't help but exclaimed and praised loudly.
He Qing nodded and replied solemnly: "Grandpa Su, to be honest with you, this gem is an emerald, but if you know a lot about emeralds, it shouldn't be difficult to tell that this emerald is emerald green.
It's dripping, very transparent, and made of the finest jade material!"
"I can tell a little bit about this. Is this jadeite made of ice or glass?" Su's father asked.
It had only been less than a few minutes, but his tone and the look in his eyes at He Qing had completely changed. There was no longer any contempt in his eyes, but a hint of admiration.
Because from the moment He Qing confidently took out the mysterious "emerald", the feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger: The young man in front of him, who was dressed simply, came from a poor background, and had an unspectacular appearance, was hiding something deep inside his heart.
Not showing it is far from being as simple as what they see.
He Qing smiled slightly, picked up the jade and said: "There is a big difference between ice type and glass type. Although ice type is also a high-quality jadeite, it still contains some impurities and looks a bit chaotic.
It feels like the transparency is a bit worse. But glass is very different. It generally has no impurities at all, and is pure and flawless from the inside to the outside! Take a closer look at my jade bead to see if it has no obvious impurities.
?”
"Yes, there are no impurities at all!" The Su family's uncle nodded vigorously in agreement, "It is as pure as a glass ball, with very high transparency! Xiao He, this is a glass jadeite. It must be very valuable, right?!"
He Qing smiled meaningfully, shook his head and said, "It's just so so."
Mr. Su laughed loudly and said: "Xiao He is too modest. The green glass jadeite is definitely worth a lot of money. Although this bead is not very big, the weight is a bit lacking. But it is delicate and exquisite. The workmanship is excellent. The key is that the foundation is very good, very
It has collectible value!”
"Yes, such beautiful jade beads are rare to see!" Father Su couldn't help but nod in admiration.
He Qing added: "I wonder if you can see it? This jade bead is not that simple. From the faint layer of patina wrapped on it, it can be seen that it is an old bead that has been around for a certain period of time.
, that is, it is an old antique. The age of its appearance is estimated to be traced back to the Three Kingdoms period!"
"Is it an old jade bead from the Three Kingdoms period?!"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Su and others were shocked.
This was something they never expected. Unexpectedly, the jade bead that He Qing took out casually was an antique with a great history!
"Yes, it's a very old jadeite." He Qing nodded solemnly and replied.
Su's father was surprised and asked: "But... jade had not been discovered at that time, and it had not been mined? How come there are jade products?"
He Qing laughed and said: "This matter is difficult to say. No one can say for sure. Although jade is not as famous as Hetian jade and other jade in ancient China, it seems that it was discovered and used very late. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties
It only gradually appeared during the period, but this does not deny that there were no jade products in the Three Kingdoms or even earlier eras."
"What Xiao He said makes sense. There is no final conclusion on this kind of thing. After all, no one can go back to that time to verify this thing." Mr. Su agreed with He Qing's words.
Uncle Su said, "Xiao He, I have a question, that is, how did you receive this bead? And how did you prove that it was from the Three Kingdoms period?"
He Qing smiled and said: "Well, can I keep this a secret? Because I promised the seller not to disclose its origin to outsiders. As for why we believe it is an old jade bead from the Three Kingdoms period, we have our own evidence for this, but now
It’s not easy to prove it to you, as long as you know what it is, that’s all.”
He got that fine old jade bead by accident. It came from an ancient tomb and was related to Cao Cao.
Of course, he would not reveal its ins and outs to anyone, including the Su family.
If he explained its true origin now, the Su family would either not believe it or be shocked.
"What Xiao He said is naturally very credible, so you don't need to think too much about it," Mr. Su interjected.
He knew He Qing's situation relatively well and knew that he was very authoritative in the antique business and that his words were very weighty and could not be doubted.
"Well, we don't need to find out about this." Father Su nodded hurriedly and replied. The origin of the old jade bead is not important. What is important is the quality of the jade itself, and the background and color of the jade are there.
, no doubt.
After a pause, he asked curiously: "Xiao He, how much did this bead cost when you collected it? The price should be very high, right? As far as I know, green glass varieties are almost as valuable as
There is no market, they are all the same as top-grade diamonds, and the price is determined by the gram.”
He Qing said: "Of course, it would be very difficult to buy jade material with the same quality as this jade bead on the market, not to mention that this is an old jade bead with the value of an antique. It's really not true
To tell you the truth, I spent several million on this jade bead when I collected it, but now it can be said to be a priceless treasure, because no one can find a second bead like this, right?"
"How many millions were collected?!"
Hearing what he said, Su's father and the others were almost stunned, their eyes widened.
Although they are not poor people, their families are very wealthy, and they are people who have seen the world, but how could they imagine that a pauper who originally seemed to them to have no job and a slim future would actually spend millions at once, just to collect a fortune?
A small antique.
This is unbelievable!
"Yeah, six million." He Qing replied casually.
Although he got that thing for free and didn't spend a penny, the estimated value will definitely not be less than six million.
"Six million is quite a lot." Su's father took a breath and said, "Then if you sell it now, how much would it be worth?"
He Qing said: "I have never thought about this issue, but it should not be less than 30 million. If someone really asks, I will never consider it if it is less than 30 million."
The 30 million yuan also ignores the historical research value condensed on it. If it is regarded as a precious cultural relic, it is really a priceless national treasure!
"Thirty million?!" Su's father, Uncle Su and others looked at each other with surprise in their eyes. He Qing's estimate of thirty million was doubtful.
But He Qing doesn't need to get their approval, he just needs to tell his true valuation.
It took a long time for Su's father and the others to recover from the shock.
"Xiao He, you are so humble. You have such a good collection of things in your hand, and you still say that you have collected nothing." Uncle Su said with a smile, "You must not be telling the truth, you are hiding a lot, aren't you?
Do you also have many other good treasures in your collection?”
He Qing nodded and said calmly: "Yes, I have collected some. Do you have a collection of porcelain from various dynasties? It's just that the Ru kiln porcelain on hand is not very complete and needs to be repaired."
"Porcelain from all dynasties?! Are they all high-quality products from official kilns?!" Su's father was surprised. He was more interested in porcelain collection and had done some research. Now he suddenly heard He Qing talking about the fruitful results of his collection, and he was surprised.
Surprised and excited.
"Well, most of them are from official kilns, some are purchased from shopping malls, some are gifts from friends, and some are purchased by myself at a large cost." He Qing replied. When talking about this matter, his face did not turn red and his heart did not beat.
Calmly, as if it was a normal thing.
“Most of them are official kilns!”
Su's father and the others looked at each other in astonishment. They couldn't believe their ears. No matter which dynasty the porcelain was from, all high-quality porcelain from the official kilns were worth a lot of money. They easily cost millions, tens of millions, and even 100 million.
Even if the value of the official kiln porcelain in He Qing's collection is relatively low, it is still an astronomical figure. The total number must be over 100 million.
If they hadn't listened to He Qing's introduction to his situation, how could Father Su and the others have imagined that the ordinary-looking young man sitting next to them was actually a billionaire, and might be richer than they imagined. As for his
The future is even more difficult to estimate.
"Xiao He, I can imagine that your taste must be very good!" Su's father praised loudly.
He Qing said: "You deserve the award, you have been studying."
Mr. Su said: "Xiao He is too humble. You must have never heard of his deeds. He can be said to be a genius appraiser in this field! He is very famous in Jiangzhou and Beijing. He is very famous.
authority!"
"Oh, really?!" Su's father and the others looked at Mr. Su in surprise.
"Yes." Mr. Su nodded solemnly and said, "You may not believe it, but it is true."
Then he told everything he knew about He Qing's glorious deeds. Only then did Su's father and the others suddenly realize and recognize He Qing's true identity.
After learning about He Qing, Su's father and others were completely impressed. Everyone admired him so much.
Then they asked He Qing about matters related to the appraisal, and He Qing also told him everything he knew and explained it very patiently.
Until Suning and her mother walked into the box. When they walked in and saw the scene in front of them, they were all dumbfounded and surprised.
Because Su's father and the others were chatting and laughing with He Qing there, they also raised glasses to He Qing's wine from time to time, which was very abnormal.
(Thank you to my old friend Fengxia for your loving reward!)
