Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes Chapter 989

Chapter 989 Bronze Dagger

"It's all trivial, I don't take it to heart, let's go to lunch."

Li Mo really didn't take it to heart, the matter is over and it's over, there's no need to worry about such a big deal.

Yang Yang bowed to him, then trotted away.

"Professor Li, this female student not only has a pretty face and a good figure, but also has a unique mind. Being able to come here and sincerely apologize to you seems to have realized my mistake."

Liu Na looked at the far away figure and made some comments.

But Li Mo shook his head slightly and said: "You don't just look at a person by her appearance and behavior. You said that she has realized her mistake and sincerely came to apologize. Actually, I didn't hear anything from what she said. Remorseful, she blamed her parents for their reckless behaviour."

Liu Na paused, then followed up and whispered, "Professor Li, are you thinking too much?"

"Do you think it's a little weird for a female student who has just entered a prestigious school to bring up the topic of good and evil in a thousand-person elective class? Maybe I'm thinking too much, anyway, I don't have a good impression of her. "

It's not just bad, it's just terrible.

After lunch, Li Mo was preparing to take a nap in the office when he received a call from Chen Xiaojun.

"Little uncle, the preparatory work for going to Hebei has been prepared. When are we going to leave?"

"You come to pick me up tomorrow morning. There shouldn't be too many people there, and the car should be more ordinary."

That Rolls-Royce car is too eye-catching, it will attract the eyes of countless people wherever it goes.

"Understood, I will arrive around 8:30 tomorrow morning."

"good."

The old man suffering from cataracts has drowned and passed away, and the people who went to the middle of Jidi to search for clues have not returned the latest useful clues. Li Mo decided to go there by himself. Is there any tomb from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period? There will be results.

Jidi was called Jizhou and Youzhou in ancient times.

"Yu Gong" is also Jizhou.

"Zhou Li Zhifang" said Youzhou.

Li Mo and the others set off in the morning, stopped and stopped on the road, and arrived at the destination at two o'clock in the afternoon. It was a small county in the middle of Hebei near the foot of Taihang Mountain.

"The weather is a bit gloomy today, and it looks like it's going to rain. Let's stay in the county first."

"Little uncle, do you want to visit the tomb of King Zhongshan in the next county?"

"No, I went to visit with my master when I was young. Our master has three unique skills. The last trick is called 'high mountains and flowing water' to identify the authenticity of bronze wares. Bronze wares are national treasures, and all the ones on the market are high-quality imitations. Come across a real bronze that came out of the earth."

"Then we will go directly to the hotel to stay."

There is only one four-star hotel in the county. Unlike Lin County, this county does not have any significant tourism resources, so naturally there are very few supporting services for tourism.

The hotel is booked early, and you can check in directly when you arrive.

"Boss, how do you arrange this afternoon?"

Li Mo looked at the time and said: "There is a cultural street in the county. It's boring. Let's go for a stroll. By the way, you and Xiaojun are far away from me. I just encountered some good things. I will post them without taking a shot." The information tells you that when the time comes, you can buy it and earn some hard work.”

"thank you boss."

"Thank you, little uncle."

No matter how much Li Mo despises things, they can earn at least hundreds of thousands if they pick up a bargain and resell them.

Putting on a sun hat and stylish sunglasses, Li Mo left the hotel in street clothes.

"How is Xiaoyan getting used to in Kyoto recently?"

Chen Xiaojun sighed: "I still feel that the nine-to-five job in the office is not suitable for her, and I have to go out and do some small business. Little uncle, what do you think about this?"

"I said I'll arrange it, you have to let her get used to it first. Okay, don't meddle in this matter, wait for me to arrange it."

Chen Xiaojun nodded.

The Cultural Street that Li Mo and the others went to was New Street, which was re-planned and estimated by the county. It integrated food, entertainment, and commerce. The buildings retained the ancient style, but the appearance was newer.

"I'll go shopping first."

Li Mo got out of the car and looked up at the archway made of solid wood, which was painted with red paint and looked a little festive. In front of the archway is a huge leisure square surrounded by more than a dozen snack stalls. In the middle of the square, there are many parents and children playing, riding small cars and playing with pulleys. Passing through the archway is to enter Wenhua Street, with neat rows of shops on both sides.

"Boss, let's have donkey meat on fire."

"Immediately, do you want another miscellaneous soup?"

"Need not."

I have eaten donkey meat fire a few times in Kyoto. It is easy to get angry if you eat too much, but the fire is crispy and the donkey meat is also fragrant, so it tastes good. There is an old folk saying that dragon meat is in the sky and donkey meat is on the ground, which shows the popularity of donkey meat in Hebei.

Li Mo bought a large glass of sour plum juice at a stall next door, and walked towards Wenhua Street while eating. It is said to be Cultural Street, which is just a name. It is similar to the positioning of pedestrian streets in many places, except that there are more antique shops here.

He saw a shop that sold the Four Treasures of the Study on the first floor, and a calligraphy training class on the second floor. Resource integration, this business is done well, it is a great convenience for the students.

Walking slowly on the street, when the donkey meat in his hand was finished, Li Mo walked into a shop. There are too many things sold in this shop, including bronzes, wood carvings, porcelain, jade, and some calligraphy and paintings. The size of the shop is not too big, and there are quite a lot of types, like a hodgepodge.

In the store, there was an elderly man lying on a bamboo chair, with a tea mug in the style of the Republic of China, with chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea in it. Next to him was a six or seven-year-old boy sitting on a stool and watching cartoons intently.

Li Mo walked to the Bogu shelf where the bronze wares were placed. All of them were small and exquisite bronze wares, including wine vessels, food vessels, and small ornaments of chariots and horses.

"Boss, is this bronze vessel real?"

Li Mo asked a special layman's question.

The boss turned his head to look at him dissatisfied and said: "Young man, there are some things you can't say casually. Bronze wares are national treasures, and trading is prohibited. If these are true, the police would have come to the door."

Li Mo showed an embarrassed look: "I'm sorry boss, I just asked casually, the main reason is that some of these bronze wares look newer and more beautiful on the surface, and some bronze wares have red and green rust on the surface, which really looks like a thing."

The boss stood up from the bamboo chair, held the tea mug in one hand, and shook the cattail fan in the other, walked up to him and said, "Young man, the knowledge about bronze ware is very profound, so I will tell you briefly. This is really true." There are two kinds of bronze wares in China, one is dry pit and the other is water pit. The surface of the bronze wares born in the dry pit will have a layer of red and green rust, while the surface of the bronze wares produced in the water pit will prevent air oxidation, so the appearance looks like It should be more delicate and beautiful. In terms of value, the ones that come out of puddles are generally not as good as those that come out of dry pits, but there are exceptions.”

"Boss, can you tell me more?"

Li Mo showed great interest.

"Bronze swords in bronze wares, such as the very famous Goujian sword of the king of Yue, come out of puddles. They have no rust, are cold and sharp, and are very sharp. They are definitely national treasures. Therefore, the value of bronze swords from a type of puddle is high. The bronze sword that came out of the Qiankeng."

"Boss, how long have you been in the antique business? It feels like you know a lot."

"Hahaha." The boss was very proud, "I started to take over the family business when I was your age, and it has been more than thirty years. Don't always stare at the bronze crafts in my shop, and Lots of good stuff."

"Boss, please recommend it to me. If I like it and the price is right, I will buy it."

The boss was still able to control himself, and instead of recommending him something to watch right away, he hesitated and asked, "Young man, where do you buy things? If it's just for decoration or something, it's fine if it's cheaper and better. If it's As a gift, it must be exquisite and beautiful, and the price should not be too low, too cheap to sell. If you want to buy it back and gamble on your luck to see if there is a chance to make a small profit, then I suggest you try it Choose that jade, if you are lucky, you may earn ten times or a hundred times."

"Hhha, look at me."

At this moment, the little boy who was watching cartoons was imitating the plot of the TV, and was waving a bronze short sword drawn from nowhere.

"My little ancestor, can you calm down." The boss hurried over and took the dagger from the boy's hand, and slapped it on his head, "What if I accidentally scratch myself? Watch your TV carefully."

He put the bronze dagger on the counter casually, and then waved to Li Mo with a smile: "Young man, come here and have a look, these are the jades I have carefully selected from Xinjiang Province and Yun Province."

Li Mo walked over and stretched out his head to take a look, and immediately curled his lips and said: "What jade, isn't it just a stone? Forget it, let me look at other things."

He shook his head directly, but still looked a few more times, and then asked: "Boss, what kind of jade are these really?"

"It is necessary. If you don't believe me, take a photo and ask a friend who knows the market." The boss said solemnly.

Li Mo hesitated, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and asked while taking pictures: "Boss, are these jades expensive? I can't afford them if they are too expensive."

"One stone is one price, and the cheapest one can be bought for a few thousand yuan for a gamble."

"How much? The cheapest one costs thousands of dollars? Forget it, I can't afford it. A broken stone will cost me a month's wages, so I can't afford to gamble."

Li Mo directly put away his mobile phone, he glanced at the bronze dagger on the counter, and a gleam of gold flashed in his eyes.

"Boss, I'll just stroll around."

"Don't you boy, you can walk into my shop today, it means that we are destined, that's it, I will sell you whatever you like, and I won't make any money."

"It seems that there is nothing I like."

Li Mo wants to leave.

"Look again, I'll get you a bottle of water."

The boss quickly took a bottle of water from the counter and opened it for him.

This old man is good at business, if I get the water, I will definitely not be able to leave. Li Mo still took it, and then said after drinking, "Then I'll take a look."

"There are so many things, there is always something you like."

Li Mo walked around, and finally pointed to the bronze dagger on the counter and said, "That handicraft dagger looks a bit interesting in craftsmanship. I bought it and polished it with sandpaper, and it turned out to be a beautiful dagger. Boss, how about that?" How much is it? It's too expensive and I won't buy it.”

The boss looked at the dagger, then at Li Mo's defensive expression, and then slowly raised a finger.

"One thousand, too expensive, thank you boss." Li Mo directly refused, turned around and was about to leave.

"Don't, you have to bargain in this business. One thousand yuan, I really didn't earn you."

"Boss, I can bid up to four hundred."

The boss frowned: "Don't bargain too hard. In this way, if you add an extra one hundred, you will let me spend the money for lunch anyway."

"Five hundred yuan?" Li Mo hesitated, reaching for his pocket, not wanting to take it out.

The boss looked at this and laughed and continued: "It was fate that we sold it to you so cheaply. We can be regarded as friends."

"That's fine." Li Mo took out a stack of money, counted five of them, and handed them to the boss with a bit of distress.

"Come on, little brother, I'll pack a box for you and take it away. Holding it in your hand may cause some misunderstandings. The box is given away for free, and you won't be charged any money."

A few minutes later, Li Mo walked out of the shop carrying a small box, and then sent a picture with his mobile phone, in which a brownish stone was circled.

Chen Xiaojun, who was drinking an iced drink, looked at the information, and walked into the shop with Brown Bear three minutes later. Ten minutes later, when they were about to leave the shop with the stone in their arms, a middle-aged man rushed in and almost bumped into the brown bear head-on.

"Dad, did you see that bronze dagger?"

The boss just made another deal and was very happy. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "What dagger?"

"It's the bronze dagger that your grandson brought over to play with."

"I just sold it." After the boss said this, his expression suddenly changed, "Could it be that the dagger was obtained from you?"

"Sold? How much did you sell?"

"I... I... sold it for five hundred yuan. My ancestor, go out and look for it, maybe he hasn't left yet."

The middle-aged man's face became extremely ugly. He ran to the door to look around, then turned back to the shop and said, "Dad, who bought the bronze dagger?"

"Don't worry about this, he is definitely a layman, if he hadn't been fooled by me for a long time, he wouldn't have bought it. You are also serious, knowing that it is true, how could the kid at home get it?"

"It's good for laymen, it's good for laymen, I hope he will destroy it after buying it back if he finds it boring."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

"He really said that he just thinks the shape of the short sword is very unique, and he will polish it with sandpaper after returning. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

What happened in the store happened to be overheard by Chen Xiaojun and Brown Bear. They stood at the door and looked at each other, and immediately notified Li Mo of such important news.

Li Mo had already entered another antique shop at this time, walked out without changing his expression after looking around, and then sent another photo.

"Meet at the cafe diagonally opposite."
