Thanks to the two brothers, Doomsday War God and Sao Daren, for the reward.
"Whether it's pure gold or not? You can't envy this kind of luck, hehe!" As he said this, Han Peacock also became happy.
Fat Liu said angrily: "I don't know this real gold? Don't think you are the only one who is knowledgeable. I really don't know about other things. I know this gold very well.
In ancient times, gold was said to have seven greens, eight yellows, nine purples, and ten reds. Different colors represent different gold content. At first glance, this small bowl is made of pure red gold. "
Han Peacock shone a strong light on the golden bowl. Seeing the reflected light from the golden bowl, he agreed with Fat Liu's idea.
Generally speaking, gold shines brilliantly and brightly under strong light, while the color of pure gold is golden yellow with a hint of red.
This golden bowl is absolutely red in color, with red in the golden color. When you weigh its weight with your hands, the golden bowl has a heavy feeling. This is a characteristic of pure gold.
If it feels too light, it must be a fake. The specific gravity of gold is much greater than that of other metals. For metal products of the same volume, gold products are much heavier.
This golden bowl is magnificent and dazzling, and it is one of the symbols of the Tang Dynasty.
"This golden bowl is too beautiful?" Fat Liu looked at the golden bowl that Han Peacock kept turning and saw the magnificence of the golden bowl. He opened his mouth in surprise and forgot to close it.
"Authentic gold bowl from the Tang Dynasty, an absolute masterpiece, hehe! I didn't expect my luck to be so good today." Han Peacock said with a smile.
That Hou San gave him three treasures directly. He was really a money-giving boy. I don’t know what kind of bad luck that guy had. He actually got four Buddhist utensils at once. Whether they were incense burners or copper bowls, they were all temples.
things used in it.
Maybe these things were indeed obtained from the temples in Mount Wutai, as Hou San said, and only in that kind of place would a large number of Buddhist utensils appear at the same time.
Of the four items, only the copper bowl with hairpins from the Qing Dynasty that Jiang Lin took was the least valuable, but the most valuable ones all fell into the hands of Han Kongque.
"How much is this thing worth?" Fat Liu asked, looking at the shining golden bowl.
"It's really hard to say, but it can sell for a few million at least. There is no standard for the price of gold in China. There was once a gold chisel from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty with a three-legged cover inlaid with gems and a pattern of "Chasing Pearls and Clouds".
The furnace actually sold for a sky-high price of HK$116.8075 million.
If we talk about the Tang Dynasty, there was a large gilt silver bowl with a five-fold zigzag branch pattern from the Tang Dynasty, which was sold for 1.5885 million pounds, which is more than 10 million yuan, and it is also a gilt silver bowl."
"So expensive? A silver bowl can be sold for tens of millions. Gold bowls from the Ming Dynasty cost hundreds of millions. Doesn't that mean that the gold bowl from the Tang Dynasty is more expensive? You must know that the goldsmiths of the Tang Dynasty have been recognized throughout the ages.
How awesome? Just today you became a billionaire?" Fat Liu was really shocked.
"I really don't know what price it can be sold for, but I think it shouldn't be a problem if it's over ten million. There are many transaction records in this area. For example, in the spring auction on April 11, 2008, Sotheby's Hong Kong launched
A collection of gold jewelry for auction.
It was a special auction of 25 sets of Ming and Qing gold wares from the personal collection of Swedish industrialist John Carl Kemp. The auction was named "Imperial Gold - Precious Ming and Qing Imperial Gold Ware", and only 17 were sold.
The total transaction volume for each auction item was as high as 171.247 million Hong Kong dollars, and the average transaction price of each piece of goldware was more than 10 million."
"You also talked about the lovely goldware of the Ming and Qing Dynasties? The golden bowls of the Tang Dynasty must be more expensive than those of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, right?" Fat Liu looked at the golden bowl with envy, as if the golden light of this golden bowl was more
It's full.
Han Kongque explained: “Although the Ming and Qing court gold and silverware were exquisite in craftsmanship, they obviously lacked the cultural taste reflected in the products of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Some senior collectors even pointed out that the craftsmanship of the gold and silverware of the Ming and Qing Dynasties was simply not comparable to that of the Tang and Song Dynasty wares.
On par, it also lacks the liquidity of current gold in terms of wealth value, and what is sold is only the concept of the palace."
"The goldware of the Tang Dynasty has never been auctioned? If there were auction records, wouldn't your gold bowl be easier to sell?" Fat Liu asked.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I have never heard of any news about Tang Dynasty palace gold objects being auctioned. Usually some Tang Dynasty gold objects are unearthed and put into museums. Such treasures are really rare."
"The gold wares of the Tang Dynasty are so famous, are they few in number?" Fat Liu asked.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Due to the extensive exchanges between China and the West in the Tang Dynasty, a large amount of gold and silver entered China. Under the influence of Western culture and the needs of the court, the production of gold and silverware reached its peak.
Although the production and use of gold and silverware were very developed during the Tang and Song Dynasties, due to the lack of gold and silver mineral deposits in China, the few sources of raw materials, and their strong use functions, most of the gold and silverware handed down from generation to generation were used by the owners according to their own wishes.
This is an important reason why the number of gold and silverware handed down from generation to generation is rare.
Most of the gold and silverware products that have survived in the country were unearthed from archaeological excavations, and there are very few handed down artifacts collected by the private sector. This is why they are very rare at auctions. Because they are rare, they are precious. This is also an important reason why goldware can often fetch sky-high prices.
.”
"How about I sell this golden bowl on your behalf? You don't need fame anyway, and this is exactly what I need." Fat Liu said with eyes shining.
Han Peacock carefully picked up the golden bowl and said: "You should forget it. I am not short of money now, so it is impossible to sell this thing recently. Also, don't just publicize what I have in my hand everywhere."
, this might get me into trouble."
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Jiang Lin's appetite to be so big." Fat Liu said apologetically.
"Forget it, just be more careful in the future, but why did you come to me today? You didn't come to play with me, right?" Only then did Han Kongque remember that he hadn't seen Fat Liu for a while, so come now
If you look for him, there must be something going on.
"If you don't tell me, I forgot. Please wait for me for a while." Fat Liu opened the door and walked out.
After Fat Liu went out, Han Kongque thought for a moment, then directly collected the two incense burners and the golden bowl, and sent them one by one to the safe in the bedroom and locked them up.
"Hey, where is that treasure? I haven't taken a good look at it yet?" Fat Liu walked in with a box of wine in his hand. When he saw that the golden bowl on the table had disappeared, he asked immediately.
"I've put away the golden bowl. I'll go to the bank later, so I'd better put this thing in the bank so I can rest assured. Huh? What are you doing?" Seeing Fat Liu come in with wine in his arms, Han Peacock was a little surprised. This is
For yourself?
"Someone gave our old man a box of Wuliangye. He just stopped drinking. I'll give it to you to try." Fat Liu said with a smile.
"Isn't your smile a little infiltrated? Let's make it clear! This kind of courtesy for nothing is either adultery or theft. If you don't make it clear, I won't dare accept your wine." Han Kongque looked at Fat Liu Dao with a half-smile but not a smile.
Fat Liu said sarcastically: "I have something to ask you for help, so you can just keep this wine."
"Let's talk about it first. If I can help, I will definitely help. If... you also know." Han Peacock said directly, if I can't help, I will definitely not help.
"I got a piece of information through a friend. Someone wants to sell a treasure. I want to buy it. Why don't I come to you and give me a reference." Fat Liu said a little embarrassed.
Han Kongque frowned: "Your mentality is a bit bad! Just like the jade pot and spring vase last time, if you can't keep your mentality stable, you will easily suffer losses."
Fat Liu's mentality has become obviously anxious recently, otherwise he wouldn't be constantly looking for things for him to identify. If he can't put away his utilitarianism, he will easily be fooled.
"Didn't I ask for your help? I still know how much I am capable of. If I don't have your help to check, I won't buy things easily." Fat Liu said sarcastically.
"What kind of things? You know, I don't know everything." Han Peacock frowned and said, it is not easy for outsiders to get involved in the acquisition of things.
"Jewelry, I heard it's an jade pendant. You used to work in a jewelry company, so you should know a lot about jade, right?" Fat Liu said with a hopeful look on his face.
"Jade? If it's about betting on stones, I'd have to think about it. If it's about appraising jade, there's no problem at all." Han Peacock was still a little confident in this.
Hearing Han Kongque's affirmation, Fat Liu was immediately overjoyed: "This opportunity is very good. If the item is right, the discount will be huge. We will share the money equally between the two of us."
Han Kongque said: "Forget it, I will help you with the appraisal, but there is no reason to share the profit with you. This time is different from being an intermediary. This time the information and channels are all yours. I will still collect my appraisal fee honestly."
That’s great, but this box of Wuliangye shouldn’t be cheap, right?”
"A box of 6 bottles can be sold for more than 3,000, but these are not the appraisal fees for you, this bottle is." As he said that, Fat Liu took out another bottle of Wuliangye from the back of the box of Wuliangye.
"This bottle is a good thing. It has been aged for thirty years. One bottle costs more than five thousand. This is your reward this time." Fat Liu said proudly.
"Thirty years of aging? This is a good thing. Even if you have money, you can't buy it! I'm so disrespectful. I didn't expect that someone would actually give me a gift now." Han Peacock said jokingly.
Han Kongque was very satisfied with Fat Liu's gift. They were friends, and it would be difficult for him to take money directly.
"These wines come from a very legitimate source. If you buy them from outside, you may not be able to buy the real ones. It's better to keep these things for yourself and enjoy them," Fatty Liu said.
"Of course. Since I cooperated with you, my little life has become more and more enjoyable. Brother, I am not short of money. I naturally enjoy the good things by myself. When the weather gets cooler, I will make some.
Food, let’s have a good drink together.”
Hot weather is really not suitable for high-alcohol liquor. This Wuliangye is 52 degrees, so it is best to drink it in autumn and winter.
