The golden clock?

Everyone at the scene showed surprised expressions: "Damn it! What does Shen Qiu mean? According to him, the material of this big clock is made of gold? A big gold clock? How is it possible? What are you kidding about such a big big clock?" How much silver does Zhong Na need!"

"Shen Qiu, are you talking nonsense? We can still recognize the materials of gold and pure copper! The big clock in front of us is obviously made of pure copper!"

"Master Shen Qiu... this is just a story you told, right?"

Yang Qing shook his head again and again: "You have heard everyone's doubts, let's not talk about the truth of your story, the big clock is right in front of us, and it is clear at a glance whether it is made of pure copper or gold..."

"No, no, no...Master Yang Qing, let me finish telling the story first!"

Shen Qiu touched the surface of the big clock with one hand and continued: "Because this big clock is made of gold, if the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang sees it, one can imagine how he feels. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, no one dared to use gold to cast it. A big bell, what Shen Wansan did is clearly despising the imperial power and ignoring the existence of Zhu Yuanzhang!"

"So here comes the problem. Shen Wansan has to hide the big clock before the arrival of the emperor, but such a big clock is difficult to remove in a short time. Shen Wansan thought of a way. Work hard! Paint a thick layer of copper paint as a cover to cover up the inner gold material, and this is how we see this big clock now, with a copper exterior and a gold heart!"

Shen Qiu turned around and came back and specifically said something to Haoer: "The big secret that Mr. Haoer mentioned just now should be the one I mentioned, right?"

"Ha ha……"

After all, Yang Qing had no choice but to sneer twice: "Master Shen Qiu, I personally appreciate your level of appreciating treasures very much, but I don't quite agree with the statement of the golden bell. First of all, in the 5000-year history of China, No one has ever used gold to cast a big clock, so how rich this person must be, even if the story you told is true, how do you explain the deep water stains at the bottom of this big clock?"

Shen Qiu nodded and continued: "This story hasn't finished yet. Let's say that Shen Wansan painted a layer of copper paint on the surface to hide the golden heart. It's still not inappropriate to go back. It just so happens that the Jiming Temple is behind the moat of Gusu City. Someone suggested that Shen Wansan sink the big clock into the moat. The emperor can't take off his clothes and go to the river to look at the big clock, right? After the emperor has left, he can fish it out of the moat again."

"It's a pity that Shen Wansan's schemes were calculated, and in the end he could not escape. Zhu Yuanzhang was suspicious by nature and would rather kill the wrong than let it go. In the end, he found an excuse to copy Shen Wansan's house and rushed to the treasury. The golden clock is also because This special reason has since been buried in the moat, and the water stains you mentioned, Master Yang Qing, probably came from this way!"

"I still don't agree!" Yang Qing always insisted on his opinion: "What Master Shen Qiu said can only be used as evidence for reference, but not an exact proof of the real existence of the golden bell!"

"Master Yang Qing, in fact, it is very simple to prove whether this big clock is a copper bell. There are two methods. The first is to scrape off a layer of copper paint on the surface, and the gold part inside will naturally appear. The second method It is also the simplest, although the color and appearance of brass and pure gold are almost the same, but there is a huge difference in density between them, the density of brass is 8.9, while the density of gold is 19.3!"

Shen Qiu took a piece of promotional material from the coffee table: "According to the weight filled in the material, the weight of 6.9 tons is completely consistent with the density of gold. Several masters are accustomed to using their accumulated knowledge to identify treasures. The obvious flaws have already been printed on the promotional posters in advance!"

"Well said! Well said!"

Koji and Ono took the initiative to applaud and came out: "Awesome, Master Shen Qiu, you can see the mystery of this golden clock at a glance! We also found out that it is made of gold through advanced equipment. Unexpectedly, Master Shen Qiu only Its material can be seen with the naked eye, and it also endows this treasure with a true legendary story! I admire Master Shen Qiu's eyesight!"

Hao Er emotionally grabbed Shen Qiu's arms: "Master Shen Qiu! I have to trouble you to estimate the price for me again! Based on your experience, what is the value of this special collection!"

Shen Qiu thought for a while and said: "It's not hard to say in terms of valuation. Master Yang Qing just gave a valuation of 1.8 million. That's because he regarded this big clock as made of brass. Now it's made of gold. It should be fine." Four hundred million has been given!"

"Four hundred million! Good, good! Thank you, Master Shen Qiu! Thank you! Come and come! Let us all give the applause to Master Shen Qiu! Thank him for his appreciation of the big clock, and thank him for giving us a vivid history class!"

……

The turmoil of Shanhai Zangbao Pavilion came to an end. In just one day, the store made headlines on TV and newspapers. The reason was that the National Treasure-level collection that Shanhai Zangbao Pavilion showed up coincided with the start of the treasure appreciation contest. During this period, many people flocked to it, including many bigwigs in the Yanjing antique circle.

Four hundred million clocks!If you take it to participate in the Yanjing Treasure Appreciation Conference, you will basically lock in the championship position in advance!

That night, Shanhai Treasure Pavilion received countless calls, all expressing their interest in the golden clock. Many people expressed their willingness to bid [-] million for the golden clock, and some were even willing to buy it at a premium.

Among them is the person in charge of the National Museum, who called to say that the research significance of this golden clock is extraordinary, and he is willing to bid for this special golden clock.

So far, the Shanhai Zangbao Pavilion in Yanjing City was completely on fire, and the fire was a complete mess.

……

As night falls, Wangfujing Pedestrian Street in Yanjing City.

Originally, Shen Qiu planned to find a restaurant in the city center to entertain Ono, after all, he was an old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time, so it was appropriate to entertain him.

Who knew that Ono specially chose Wangfujing Street, saying that he was not interested in those delicacies from mountains and seas. When he came to Yanjing, what he wanted to visit most was this snack street, and what he wanted to eat the most was the special roadside snacks of old Yanjing.

It was cold and windy at night in Yanjing, so Ono wore an off-white woolen coat, his little hands and cheeks were red from the cold, but he ate a lot of snacks with great relish.

"Yanjing candied haws! It's delicious! Yanjing's kebabs are delicious too! There are also stinky tofu! Stewed! I want fried noodles!"

"Come on Miss Ono, as long as you have a stomach, Shen Qiu will satisfy you today!"

"Okay, Master Shen Qiu, I'm joking with you! My stomach is going to explode, let's find a milk tea shop and buy me milk tea!"

"arrange!"

The two found a secluded milk tea shop and sat down to enjoy the night scenery of Yanjing City. It has been almost half a year since they came to Yanjing, and this is the first time that Shen Qiu truly appreciates the beauty of Yanjing.

Yanjing is a city that combines ancient culture and modernity. Here, you can not only taste the simplicity of a thousand-year-old city, but also experience the prosperity of a modern economic city. Especially when you are accompanied by a beautiful woman from a foreign land, you feel extremely comfortable.

"By the way, Ono, is Mr. Oda alright?" Shen Qiu took the initiative to ask about Ono's father.

"My father is alright! In your parlance, he is called Disarmed and Returned to the Land. He no longer cares about antiques. He invested all his savings in this Shanhai Treasure Pavilion. We accounted for 33% of the shares, by the way. ! My father even asked me to say hello to you!"

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mr. Oda, for remembering me, Shen Qiu! Xiao Ye? You are also a shareholder of the company. I am curious to ask, that golden clock, is your Shanhai Treasure Pavilion going to sell it?"

"Master Shen Qiu? Do you want it too?"

"How can I afford it?" Shen Qiu laughed at himself: "The level of the golden clock is right there, and it can be called a national treasure in Yanjing City. Anyone who can afford it in Yanjing City No more than ten, at most I, Shen Qiu, can afford to buy the outer layer of brass paint! Hehe! I just inquired for a few bosses, and they all called me to buy them!"

"However, there is one thing to say, that Koji is really powerful, and this operation has attracted the attention of the entire Yanjing City!"
