"I didn't expect that this time they even brought out the chicken cup. This was the finale of treasure battles in previous years!" Fu Kun couldn't help but worry.
"It doesn't matter, this is only the first round, there are eight more opportunities to come!" Liu Dong comforted.
Despite this, Liu Dong, who had seen all the antiques carried by both sides through the relic Yuan Guang, was not too optimistic about his side winning the treasure battle this time.
Some appraisers who can only pick up treasures from the antique market go head-to-head with a group of rich people who can use their money to buy all kinds of precious antiques. It would be strange if the former can win!
Moreover, without Liu Dong's nearly cheating relic Yuanguang's appraisers, it would be too difficult to pick out an authentic product from tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of fakes, and it can still reach the level of first-class antique.
Sometimes you don't just have enough strength to do it, most of the time you have to rely on luck.
But these Hong Kong rich people are different. Being in Asia's largest art trading market, they can use the large amount of money at their disposal to effortlessly buy all kinds of antiques they want from the auction house, and they can
The ones they value are almost all second-level cultural relics.
While the domestic wealthy are still developing and their interest has not yet shifted to collecting antiques, these Hong Kong wealthy families with rich family backgrounds and three generations of wealth have already accumulated a large number of precious antiques. When the time comes, just grab a few pieces from them and
Enough to suppress the mainland collecting industry!
"Fortunately, there is no room for change!"
Thinking of this, Liu Dong, who was sitting behind Yan Yushan, patted the former and said, "Old Yan, who is the second person to appear here?"
Although he was a little unhappy about losing the first battle of treasures, after hearing Liu Dong's words, Yan Yushan quickly replied: "It's Zheng Yuchun. What's wrong?"
Looking at Mr. Yan's questioning eyes, Liu Dong thought about it and swallowed it back after the words came to his lips!
"nothing!"
Hearing this, Mr. Yan, who was worried about the outcome of the second round of Dou Bao, did not notice the hesitant look on Liu Dong's face.
"Xiaodong, watch carefully, it will be your turn later!"
"I know!"
After nodding, Liu Dong sighed secretly as he watched Mr. Yan turn around. Originally, he wanted Mr. Yan to temporarily change the order of appearance and use the "Tian Ji horse racing" method to win the treasure battle, but
As soon as the words came to his lips, Liu Dong immediately remembered that he had no reason to change the order of appearance.
It is absolutely impossible to tell the second person about the relic Yuanguang, and if he really persuades Yan Lao to change the order, how will Liu Dong face the suspicious eyes of everyone if he wins the treasure fight?
So after weighing things up, Liu Dong finally chose to remain silent.
However, his silence does not mean that he will let his side lose this treasure battle!
"It looks like I'm going to have to work harder in the next few games!"
After making up his mind, Liu Dong saw that his side had lost the second round again.
In the second round, the Xiangjiang Collection Association presented a blue and white jade vase from the Qianlong imperial kiln in the Qing Dynasty. Although Liu Dong's official kiln large lotus bouquet was also very good, it was still slightly inferior in value.
The two losses in a row obviously hit the collectors and appraisers from the mainland. They came over with confidence and took the treasures that they regarded as their lives. But they didn't expect that they were hit twice in the head at the beginning!
Looking at the hall filled with ice and fire, as well as the frowns on the faces of Mr. Yan and Mr. Chen, Liu Dong knew that he had to stand up at this time, otherwise losing the third game would have a greater impact on morale.
"President Yan, Mr. Chen, please let me do this third round?" Liu Dong said.
"No, your things are reserved for the finale. It's too early to take them out now!" Before Yan Yushan could speak, Mr. Chen had already spoken.
"Old Chen is right, Xiaodong, please be patient. You have to keep your things until the finale, and it's just the beginning and we don't necessarily lose!" Yan Yushan nodded and said.
"President Yan, Mr. Chen, you have misunderstood. When I said I would come for the third round, I did not take out the Purple Lightning Sword. I also carried two antiques with me!" Liu Dong said.
"What?"
"Two more antiques?"
The two old men's surprised sounds made everyone around them look at them.
After noticing this situation, the two old men subconsciously lowered their voices to avoid being overheard by the other party!
"Xiaodong, you can't joke at this time. In addition to the purple electric sword, do you really have two antiques on you?" Yan Yushan said quickly.
"Of course!" Liu Dong nodded confidently.
"Tell me, which two are they?" Mr. Chen, who had more contact with Liu Dong than Yan Yushan, obviously believed Liu Dong's words more.
"A fine painting by Tang Yin, "Spring Mountain Companion", and this!" Liu Dong raised his left hand as he spoke, and there was a jade ring on his thumb!
The two old men have not seen Tang Yin's paintings yet, but this jade ring is really good, especially Yan Yushan. He is a master of jade appraisal, so he can tell at a glance that the jade ring on Liu Dong's hand belongs to
Top quality Hetian mutton fat jade!
It is not the fake first-grade white jade pretending to be mutton-fat jade on the market today, but the real top-grade mutton-fat jade, which is basically priceless in the current Hetian jade market. Just take it out and it will cost tens of dollars.
Millions of things.
And according to Yan Yushan’s many years of appraisal experience, this jade ring is undoubtedly an ancient jade!
"Show me quickly!"
Seeing Mr. Yan's anxious look, Liu Dong didn't refuse, took it off and handed it over.
After taking the jade finger ring from Liu Dong's hand as if it were a treasure, Mr. Yan naturally discovered the picture of hundreds of horses on it at a glance.
When he saw this pattern, Yan Yushan's eyes widened immediately. After a moment of stunned expression, his eyebrows and beard all trembled with excitement.
"Lao Yan, what's wrong with you?" Seeing the look of his old friend, Mr. Chen next to him was startled and asked quickly.
Liu Dong was also shocked, and quickly stretched out his hand to gently press the Jade Pillow point on Mr. Yan’s back!
Yan Yushan, who felt his spirit was shaken, quickly took a deep breath and slowly suppressed his violently beating heart! Fortunately, although he was nearly ninety years old, he was still in good health and did not have high blood pressure, coronary heart disease or other age-related diseases.
, so even though I was excited just now, I didn’t have any major physical problems.
However, after the old man suppressed the shock and excitement in his heart, he quickly took out a magnifying glass from his pocket, and then took a jade wrench in his hand to examine it carefully.
Seeing his old friend like this, Mr. Chen, who knew his habits, naturally understood that this jade ring was definitely not a mortal thing, otherwise his well-informed old friend would not be so excited.
Of course, now Chen Bangda is also curious about the origin of this jade ring.
"Liu Dong...?"
Looking at Mr. Chen's questioning eyes, Liu Dong smiled and said: "Zigang Yu, Hundred Horses Picture!"
"Oh, Zigang jade!" After repeating the sentence, Mr. Chen suddenly realized it. After staring at Liu Dong for a while, he suddenly said excitedly: "You mean Zigang jade? Zigang jade carved by Lu Zigang in the Ming Dynasty
?”
"Zigang jade? Where is Zigang jade?"
"There are still people using Zigang jade to fight for treasures today?"
Mr. Chen's words instantly caused a wave of waves in the entire hall. As Liu Dong and Mr. Chen were relatively close, they naturally heard the conversation of a few people just now, and even saw the jade that Mr. Yan was holding in his hands at this moment, so before Chen
Lao Hua, who was lagging behind, all of them had long forgotten about the treasure fight and gathered around.
Anyone who really likes antique collection and appraisal will not let go of the emergence of this kind of national treasure-level jade.
Seeing all the collectors from the mainland gathering together, the people from the Xiangjiang Collection Association opposite them also became eager to make a move!
The names of Lu Zigang and Zigang Yu have long been known to them, but more than 90% of people have never seen the true face of Zigang Yu, so now the people of the Xiangjiang Collection Association are also very curious.
But now no one moves, especially Li Xiao and the president, so it's hard for anyone to be the first to walk over.
"These mainlanders just haven't seen much of the world. A little Gangyu makes them lose their cool. Things they have never heard of must be worthless!" Li Mingchang said sarcastically.
His words were very loud, and almost everyone in the Xiangjiang Collection Association heard them. Of course, the people in the Mainland Collection Association opposite could also hear them. However, everyone was more concerned about the rare national treasure Zigang Yu. No one looked at a fool.
.
Occasionally, a few turned their heads and glanced at Li Mingchang, then quickly glanced at everyone in the Xiangjiang Collection Association and then took them back.
Li Mingchang didn't think there was anything wrong with these looks. He was happy that someone was paying attention to him.
However, other people from the Xiangjiang Collection Association felt the ridicule and sarcasm of their colleagues on the other side, who looked like they were looking at fools, which made them feel deeply embarrassed.
If they hadn't considered that the Li family's influence was deep-rooted in Xiangjiang and they had deep friendships with many of them, they would have kicked out Li Mingchang, a guy who knew nothing about collecting and yet pretended to be a big-tailed wolf who was ridiculed by others.
After taking a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, Li Xiaohe turned around and said, "Old Wu, why is this playboy here?"
Hearing this, the bald old man next to him, known as Lao Wu, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Li Dewei called in the morning and said that his company had something to do and he couldn't come at the moment. He asked his son to send the antiques over! I thought it was Li Minghui.
I came here today, who knew it was Li Mingchang, a dandy!"
"Oh, forget it! The deal is done. We can't drive him out even if we don't care about the Li family's face, so let him stay here! But after today, our relationship with the Mainland Collection Association will probably fall to the freezing point!" Li Xiaohe sighed.
He said with a breath.
