Han Bing's face was slightly smug, with an expression that made me right. As expected, the rare stone auction was open-air, and the location was Luo Tianshu. It was the same place where he first participated in stone gambling to test his skills. Mo Shaodong
A small rough stone exhibition held in the city center park.
The difference between this auction and other auctions is that all the strange stones only have numbers, without any notes or explanations. It is up to the bidder to decide what kind of strange stone you think it is and whether it is valuable or not. If you are interested, you can write the number on
On paper, when it comes to the actual auction, just select the corresponding number and bid. In this way, it is a test of people's eyesight. They can only see, not touch, so the accuracy cannot be guaranteed, which makes gambling
The risk has increased, and it is this novelty that has aroused the interest of many people.
Natural landscape stones are definitely not allowed to participate in the auction. For example, can you dig out the flying stones from Huangshan Mountain? Therefore, the large-scale strange stones are mainly garden landscape stones. This kind of stone is larger in shape, but compared with the natural landscape stones.
, easy to move, usually placed in outdoor gardens, the smaller ones are bonsai stones, and there are also some small pieces made of natural stone, stone carvings, stone carvings, stone inkstones, seals, etc. I really didn’t expect that this Yuan
The boss is really quite capable. I don’t know where he found so many stones.
At this time, the auction has not really started yet. Luo Tian and Han Bing were slowly turning around among the auction items. Han Bing also had some research on strange stones. He patted Luo Tian on the shoulder: "Did you see it? Peony stone."
Luo Tian looked over and saw that the stone was pitch black, but there were many white or green crystals scattered on it. At a quick glance, it looked like peonies of national beauty and fragrance.
Han Bing was a little excited: "Luo Tian, peony stone is a rare species. It was formed geologically for 300 to 400 million years, and it is the only place of origin in the world. It is located in Wulong Village, Koudian, Yanshi, China. It is non-renewable. Peony flowers
The flowers may look the same year after year, but once the tiny veins of peony stone are exhausted, the peony stone sculptures scattered around the world will become unique and authentic!"
Luo Tian looked around: "It's quite difficult. You see, we are not the only ones who are interested in peony stones. For such an auction, with our ability, we should avoid it, right?"
What else did Han Bing want to say? He thought that there was not much money in the card, so he could only endure it, but couldn't take his eyes away from the peony stone. Then he turned to look at the crowd surrounding the peony stone, knowing in his heart that Luo Tian was right.
To be honest, I can only drag Luo Tian away.
In the field of strange stones, Luo Tian is just an unknown junior. Basically no one knows him. Luo Tian is also happy to be quiet. He just happens to concentrate on studying these stones to facilitate the implementation of his strategy. Just when Luo Tian is concentrating, a man suddenly
He quickened his pace and approached Luo Tian, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Luo Tian?"
Unexpectedly, he was recognized by someone, and the person's tone seemed to be very familiar with Luo Tian. When he saw the person clearly, Luo Tian also smiled: "It turns out to be Teacher Zhang."
The person in front of him was Zhang Shanshui, a connoisseur and collector of strange stones. Zhang Shanshui's status in the strange stone world was equivalent to that of Huang Lide in the antique circle. Just now, Zhang Shanshui was surrounded by a group of people. When he broke out of the encirclement, he saw Luo Tian at a glance.
Boss Yuan was actually able to invite Zhang Shanshui, which seemed to be quite capable. Luo Tian shook hands with Zhang Shanshui: "I never thought we would meet on such an occasion."
"I never thought that an antique genius would actually enter the strange stone circle." Zhang Shanshui suddenly thought of something: "Speaking of this, I met Ang Qin not long ago. I heard that you met in Japan?"
"It's a thing of the past." Luo Tian said vaguely. Everything in Japan is like a mirror, so let it pass.
"Are there any strange stones that suit your taste today?" What Zhang Shanshui really cares about is this. He has never witnessed Luo Tian's skill in strange stones, but he really wants to see if Luo Tian has any talent in strange stones.
Luo Tian shook his head in disappointment: "We haven't found it yet."
Hearing what Luo Tian said, Han Bing immediately felt uneasy. He couldn't help complaining: "Are you kidding?"
"The competition for rare stones as precious as peony stones is too fierce. This is not a trade fair, but an auction. The one with the highest price wins. There are rules of the game. We must rely on our own economic ability to win what we want under the premise of the rules."
Something." Luo Tian insisted: "
Zhang Shanshui nodded: "That makes sense. I'll leave for a while and you can watch it slowly."
After Zhang Shanshui left, all Han Bing's complaints immediately broke out: "Luo Tian, please don't make fun of me. What are you going to do if you leave the peony stone alone and don't bid for it? You won't do it because this is my business."
So you don’t take it to heart at all, right?”
"You come with me." Luo Tian did not argue, and pulled Han Bing to the two stones: "We must get these two stones, and, you see, the attention of the people on the scene to these two stones
The power is not high, what does this prove? People are not optimistic about it, but not being optimistic about it does not mean that it has no value, so we will have a chance."
The two stones were yellow. Han Bing took a look and said strangely: "It's weird, why is no one interested in Tian Huangshi?" When he saw it clearly, Han Bing shook his head: "Luo Tian, it seems you are just in the antique circle.
He is a genius, but he is just an ordinary person when placed in the circle of strange stones. These two pieces are not Tianhuang stones at all, but just digging stones. It couldn't be more obvious!!"
Tianhuang stone is only produced in a field of less than one square kilometer in Shoushan, Fujian, my country. Because it is generally yellow in color and is produced in fields, it is called Tianhuang stone. Its material is warm, moist and greasy, ranking first among soft carved stones. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was presented as a tribute to the palace, and was carved into royal seals and artistic ornaments. Therefore, Tianhuang stone is also revered as the "King of Stones" and "Emperor of Stones", so its value is unparalleled.
To put it bluntly, Tianhuang stones are cultural relics among stones. As for the excavation pit stones, they are massive monoliths scattered around the pits. They are angular, mostly yellow, sometimes have silk patterns, have a thick texture, and have a pinkish skin.
Yellow and opaque, medium to slightly transparent, mostly with red veins, cracks, and sometimes white halo spots.
These two pieces of Tianhuang stone are sculptures. As the saying goes, if jade is not cut, it cannot be used. One is carved with Maitreya Buddha, and the other is echoing with the seated lotus Guanyin.
Han Bing believed that it was an imitation. The excavation pit stone had a slight warmth contained in the soil, and its fineness was very close to that of Tianhuang. Its moistness and brightness were the same as those of Tianhuang. It was very confusing, but things cannot be judged by just looking at them.
On the surface, these two Tianhuang stones have caused many people's misunderstandings, but in Luo Tian's eyes, these two Tianhuang stones are exquisite. Because they are lying in the green light, whether it is Guanyin or Maitreya Buddha, they are all bathed in the soft green light.
In light, just from the carving point of view, it is already a masterpiece.
In addition to being yellow, real Tianhuang stone must also have quality, that is, fine, clean, warm, moist, coagulated, and greasy. When held in the hand, it is like the skin of an infant, extremely tender, tender, and moist. It can remain moist even without maintenance.
, no feeling of dryness. Because the auction items can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be held in the hand, many people made judgments based on the color and thought they were smart. As a result, they missed these two truly high-quality Huangtian stones.
Han Bing was stubborn, but Luo Tian made up his mind that he must get these two stones. He picked up the pen and paper in his hand and wrote down the numbers of the two Huangtian stones. Han Bing saw it in his eyes.
I felt unhappy: “I won’t pay for this.”
Luo Tian smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'll help you advance the payment." The implication was that he would take the photo. If it was true, Han Bing would pay him. In comparison, Han Bing felt that he was too petty.
