It is said that antiques were born in troubled times, and gold’s value preservation is generally deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but now even gold is unreliable. Although jade resources are scarce, no one can guarantee that jade deposits will never be discovered again in the future.
But antiques are different. No matter how many are newly discovered, every antique cannot be copied. In the future, antiques can only be damaged, but not increased. It is truly destroyed to reduce one piece. Use something like this to
The preservation of value is indeed safer than gold, jade or the like.
The inflation in recent years has frightened families with large amounts of cash in their hands. Things that could be bought for one penny now cost one yuan. No one can bear the almost hundred-fold depreciation. Money now is
It’s really not money anymore.
The state controls the issuance of currency, and they can print as much money as they want. Once such an opening is opened, there is no control at all, especially the depreciation of the US dollar, which makes some big families dumbfounded.
No one is a fool now, and no one wants to pay for Americans. From here, they can see clearly that banknotes are sometimes just a piece of paper, and they are really not that safe. It is the last word to collect some hard currency.
It is because of this that some big families, represented by the Jiang family, have joined forces to increase their family heritage, and building the largest private museum in Asia is just their first step.
The last time Longtan Hotel was a rooftop garden, now the whole garden is full of life. There are not only flowers, plants and trees here, but also a large number of people, and they are discussing something in full swing.
"Gentlemen, this is your nameplate. Please put the things you brought in the designated location." As soon as they entered the sky garden, a security guard came over and guided them inside.
There is a number on the nameplate, and the number actually represents a small booth. All the things brought by people participating in the exchange meeting can be placed in their own booth. The booth is a small closed counter with a password lock on it. You only need to set it yourself.
Once the password is locked, no one can open it.
Han Kongque put his two things away, looked at Qin Mingyue and said, "What are your plans? Are you going to move around freely, or continue to follow me?"
"Of course I'm following you. I found that your thighs are very thick. Besides, we are so familiar with each other. It's better to be familiar than to be raw." Qin Mingyue whispered to Han Peacock.
"Brother Han, I'm going to do business, so I won't disturb your exchange of feelings." After Ye Hui came in, he looked at the place where there were many people. More people meant opportunities, so he naturally wanted to seize the opportunity.
"Let's go and take a look too!"
There are only about a hundred people on the roof of the building, which is not too many or too few. Most of these people are now gathered in a small square in the middle of the garden. Qin Mingyue is naturally curious.
"What? Isn't this the assistant who works as a porter at our house? Why? Come to the exchange meeting too? Let me see what it is? Sure enough, isn't this the piece of blood jade that was taken out of our house?" Han Peacock just turned around.
, and saw Zhou Chengyun.
"Director Zhou, do you know if the work in the warehouse has been smoothed out? But the rough stones cannot be arranged according to size. Apart from moving the rough stones, there is no other work in the warehouse, right? Your job of supporting the elderly is very easy!
"Han Peacock said sarcastically, he is not a good person and never suffers losses.
Zhou Chengyun had been dismissed by Zhou Meiren a long time ago, and now he heard that Han Peacock refused to open any pot, and naturally his face turned into pig liver in an instant.
"Brother Han knows Brother Zhou?" Jiang Lin said a little surprised when he saw Han Kongque talking to Zhou Chengyun.
"We know him. He used to work as a porter in our company. I don't know how to get in here. Security, security, and all the cats and dogs are allowed in." Zhou Chengyun shouted loudly.
"That's enough. If you embarrass me by yelling and yelling again, go back." I don't know when Zhou Meiren came over.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou." Seeing Beauty Zhou, Jiang Lin's eyes flashed with light and he immediately greeted her.
"Young Master Jiang has been very active recently!" Zhou Meiren said as she glanced at Han Peacock. Han Peacock's size was so impressive that anyone who saw him once would remember him.
"No, we are already too far behind you. If we don't make more moves, we will be eliminated by this society." Jiang Lin said with a smile.
"Mr. Jiang is far-sighted. I wonder if you are interested in visiting our place. Our company brought a lot of good things today." After taking a look at the two Buddha statues carved by Han Peacock, Zhou Meiren invited Jiang Lin.
Han Kongque stood aside helplessly. The gap between him and Zhou Meiren was too big, and it was impossible to attract her attention.
"Haha, I'm only interested in the best. I wonder what Mr. Zhou will bring? If there is such a good quality as Brother Han, I will definitely support him." Jiang Lin glanced at the square in the garden center. If there is no such thing,
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the Zhou family's stone gambling den.
The good things of the Zhou family have always been hidden in the warehouse and rarely leaked out. Those should be their family's treasures and exist as part of the family's heritage. It is difficult for outsiders to buy some.
Jiang Lin is very clear about this, so he is not very interested in the stone betting ground here. If there are really good quality rough stones, a large jewelry company like the Zhou family will never sell them.
"Our company only has one blood jade bracelet like this, which seems to disappoint Mr. Jiang." Zhou Meiren said with a smile.
Han Peacock looked at Zhou Meiren's formulaic smile and felt very uncomfortable. He said, "You guys chat, I'll go look elsewhere."
Originally, Qin Mingyue didn't want to leave. After all, this was an opportunity to meet some young masters, but Han Peacock pulled her away directly. She had no choice but to follow Han Peacock's footsteps.
Not far from Han Peacock's booth, there was a booth with some things. When Han Peacock went over and took a look, he was immediately surprised. This was a guqin. If he read it correctly, Han Peacock should have seen this guqin before.
It should be the Tang Qin in the Four Arts Hall.
"Is this a Guqin?" Qin Mingyue asked curiously.
"It is a Tang Qin, and it has been restored. The person who restored it must be a music master. This Qin should be able to be used normally now." Han Kongque looked at the Tang Qin carefully and said.
He still likes this piano very much, but it turns out that he has no chance to collect such a treasure. This kind of thing looks ancient at first glance, so it is naturally impossible to miss such a thing.
"A guqin from the Tang Dynasty? This thing should be very expensive, right?" Qin Mingyue said with her eyes shining a little.
Han Kongque looked at her and said with a smile, "It's definitely worth more than five million."
"Wow! Five million? It's enough for me to film a TV series." Qin Mingyue heard the price and immediately let go of Han Kongque's arm. Her upper body immediately lay on the counter. Looking at it like that, she seemed to want to get in.
Inside the glass counter, take this guqin into your hand.
Han Kongque looked at the booth alone. There were hundreds of booths in the rooftop garden, and it seemed that each booth had one or more treasures locked inside.
There are bronzes, ancient jades, and modern jewelry here, and even more porcelain vases. Porcelain from the Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing, and the Republic of China all appear here, and not even one piece.
Among these porcelains, there were several pieces of fine porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, but the one that shocked Han Peacock the most was a large Yuan blue and white porcelain.
Although this piece of blue and white porcelain is just a simple blue and white porcelain with no figure paintings on it, its body is more than one meter tall. Such large Yuan blue and white porcelain is really rare.
Although a large part of the things here are controversial, many of them are definitely genuine. Seeing these things, Han Peacock can be said to have opened his eyes.
This city is worthy of being one of the largest cities in the country, but so many treasures appeared in just such an exchange meeting.
Han Peacock sighed, carefully appreciating each piece.
He didn't have much time to identify the authenticity of these things, he could only appreciate the beauty of these things as much as possible.
He won't buy these things anyway, so he just wants to simply appreciate the beauty.
Whether it is a modern high imitation or an ancient authentic product, Han Peacock appreciates their top-notch manufacturing technology.
As the number of the booths became higher and higher, the things in the booths became more and more precious. When he finally saw booth No. 1, Han Kongque's pupils couldn't help but shrink!
In this booth is a sword with nine golden dragons embedded on the surface of the sword, and gems embedded in the hilt! The whole sword looks magnificent, majestic and heavy!
This sword is more than one meter long, and the blade appears to be long and narrow, but with the extra-long hilt, it looks extremely coordinated. Nine golden dragons are carved on the hilt, symbolizing "Nine Nines Return to One".
The scabbard is made of precious shark skin and is inlaid with rubies, sapphires and diamonds, making it priceless.
Looking at this sword, Han Peacock couldn't help but admire that this Nine-Dragon Sword should be the masterpiece of Sun Dianying, the Dongling thief. Sun Dianying once recalled that he gave Dai Li a Nine-Dragon Sword from Qianlong's tomb.
In 1939, Sun Dianying handed over the most precious Nine Dragon Sword to Dai Li and asked him to forward it to Chiang Kai-shek. At the time of the Anti-Japanese War, Dai Li's sword was temporarily kept by his military commander Ma Hansan.
Unexpectedly, Ma Hansan became greedy for treasure and hid the sword secretly. In early 1940, he was captured by the Japanese and gave the sword to save his life. The sword fell into the hands of the Japanese female spy Yoshiko Kawashima.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Kawashima Yoshiko was captured by the military commander. Dai Li went to Peking No. 1 Prison to interrogate the female Kawashima Yoshiko. Kawashima Yoshiko in prison revealed a secret that shocked Dai Li.
It turns out that Ma Hansan, the commander of the Peking Station of the Military Command, was arrested and rebelled during the Anti-Japanese War. Not long ago, Ma Hansan also confiscated a Kowloon sword from Yoshiko Kawashima's home that was donated during the rebellion.
