It was very difficult for the two strong servants to carry it. It must have been a very heavy object.
"Be careful, be careful...this is precious." Li Sanyuan helped lift the object and placed it firmly on the stage, then he lifted off the red cloth covering the object.
The eyes of all the guests were attracted, and there was silence for a while.
It was a bronze tripod with a round bottom and a body that looked a bit like a vat with two ears on both sides. The tripod was about a foot tall and shaped like an animal's hooves. Its overall height was slightly shorter than an ordinary dining table.
Li Sanyuan pointed to the bronze tripod and introduced, "Everyone, this tripod is about three thousand years old. It is made of the finest bronze and has very high hardness. It was a royal item more than three thousand years ago.
It is extremely expensive. This tripod is a precious collection that has been preserved by the royal family of Huanyue Kingdom for several generations. It was donated by His Majesty the Emperor himself in consideration of the suffering of the people. This tripod is worth at least one million taels. Your Majesty feels that all of you who are here today are all
For doing good deeds, the bronze tripod will be sold at half price. The base price is 500,000 taels. Every time you bid, you must add at least 5,000 taels. The one with the highest price will win!"
"Five hundred thousand taels... so expensive..." Everyone started to make noise again. Many people wanted it, but not many could afford it.
"That's my number one cauldron." Someone's eyes lit up as they looked at it, "If you take down this object, you have to be famous all over the world. If you become famous, you will get twice the result with half the effort in doing business..."
Jun Youqi opened the folding fan and said with a smile, "If the bronze tripod is real, has a history of more than 3,000 years, and is a royal item more than 3,000 years ago, the price is not expensive. But, who knows if it is real
Where’s the fake one?”
Emperor Qi Tianguo said this, and people with sharp ears heard it, and the question spread throughout the audience.
Only the emperor of other countries dared to doubt it. If it were the officials and subjects of this dynasty who doubted the things donated by the emperor, it would be a serious crime of beheading.
Murong Chenghao, the King of Rui, said with a cold face, "How can I, the great country of Huanyue, deceive the world? I have asked someone to carefully appraise this bronze tripod. In order to avoid King Qi Tian feeling unfair, between you and King Fengxiang
How about appointing someone to appraise it again?"
"That's natural." Jun Youqi waved his hand, and an antique dealer from the crowd walked onto the stage, holding some artifacts for identifying antiques in his hand. It seemed that he was well prepared.
He held the bronze tripod carefully, scraped some copper stains carefully, and compared it. After a while, the explanation was the same as what Li Sanyuan introduced.
"Monarch Fengxiang, please also appoint someone for appraisal." Li Sanyuan bowed respectfully to Jun Mo Shang in the audience.
Shadow said softly, "Master, I didn't expect Jun Youqi to suddenly make such a proposal. He is obviously coming for you. He knows that you don't have anyone who can identify the antiques. At this critical moment, where can you find someone..."
Jun Mo Shang frowned.
Jun Youqi gave him a sarcastic expression, "What? The Third Emperor is the king of a country, but he doesn't even have a servant who appreciates antiques? Talent is withering like this? How can he be a good emperor of a country?"
Drink... There was a constant sound of gasping. How could this good charity fair turn into a fight between two emperors? The congratulators were so angry that they didn't dare to take a breath.
Shadow raised his brows anxiously and suggested in a low voice, "Master, I'm going to find someone right away..."
"No need." Feng Jingyun said it. Her voice was as calm as the wind, "The reason why my husband didn't bring an antique appraiser with him is because I, a master of antique appraisers, are here to do the appraisal."
