Old Harden, can you handle having your vision-shifting abilities on all the time?

That night, Li Yuting was extremely persistent in her pursuit.

She was like a tireless kitten, clinging to Xu Xing again and again, as if trying to exhaust all the enthusiasm she had accumulated during this time.

Midway through, she was so exhausted that she collapsed on the bed, not even wanting to move a finger. But after resting for less than half an hour, she regained her energy and clung to him again.

Fortunately, Xu Xing's physical strength and recovery ability are both superhuman, so no matter how much Li Yuting tries to cause trouble, he can easily cope.

In the end, it was Li Yuting who couldn't hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Xing looked at her contented sleeping face, smiled, kissed her forehead, and then closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, when sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains, both of them were still fast asleep.

Xu Xingxian woke up and glanced at his phone; it was almost eleven o'clock.

He glanced at Li Yuting beside him; she was still fast asleep, curled up in the blankets like a kitten, with only her peaceful sleeping face showing.

He didn't wake her, but quietly got up to wash and then called room service to order some light lunch.

Li Yuting only woke up groggily when lunch was delivered.

She rubbed her eyes and saw Xu Xing sitting by the bed looking at her with a lazy smile on his face: "Good morning..."

"It's getting late, it's almost noon."

Xu Xing smiled and said, "Get up and eat. I ordered your favorite dishes."

Li Yuting stretched, then sat up as the blanket slipped off, revealing a large expanse of her cleavage.

She didn't mind, put on her pajamas casually, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.

After lunch, Xu Xing suggested that they go to the antique street in Huacheng for a stroll.

"Antiques Street?"

Li Yuting's eyes lit up. "Great! I've been wanting to go see it for ages!"

The two changed their clothes, and Xu Xing drove the rented Toyota Prado, taking Li Yuting to the most famous antique market in Guangzhou, Liwan.

Located in the old town of Huacheng, Liwan Antique City is a three-story building with an antique exterior and a compact interior layout.

The first floor mainly deals in porcelain, jade, and miscellaneous items; the second floor mainly deals in calligraphy and paintings, ancient books, and the Four Treasures of the Study; and the third floor is home to various high-end antiques and private clubs.

Xu Xing and Li Yuting entered the antique market during the afternoon peak season.

The lobby on the first floor was bustling with people, filled with the sounds of vendors calling out their wares in various dialects and haggling over prices, creating a lively atmosphere.

Xu Xing held Li Yuting's hand and slowly walked forward along the passage.

Instead of making a move, he activated his X-ray vision and quickly scanned each stall and shop.

Li Yuting, on the other hand, was like a bird released from its cage, looking around curiously, and occasionally pulling Xu Xing to stop in front of something and asking him questions.

"Brother Xu, is this vase real?"

"It's fake, a modern imitation, the aging process is very crude."

"And what about this jade pendant?"

"It's also a counterfeit, but it's a pretty good one, a high-quality replica, but it's not very valuable."

Li Yuting listened with great interest, feeling that Xu Xing was like a living dictionary, able to see through everything.

The two strolled around for nearly an hour, stopping and starting, but Xu Xing still didn't make a move.

It's not that there aren't any good things, but rather that there are too few good things, and the prices are inflated, making them not worth buying.

Just as he was about to move on to another place, his gaze suddenly stopped on a stall in the corner.

It was a very small stall with only a folding table on which some miscellaneous items were scattered.

There are old clocks, vintage cameras, brass locks, porcelain vases, wood carvings...

Xu Xing's gaze fell on something in the corner.

It was a palm-sized bronze incense burner with a simple and ancient design. The burner was round and supported by three legs, and the lid was carved with a crane with outstretched wings.

The surface of the incense burner is covered with a thick layer of verdigris, giving it an antique appearance and indicating exquisite craftsmanship.

With his X-ray vision, Xu Xing saw a scene that made his heart race.

The inside of that incense burner was covered with a layer of gold leaf!

The gold leaf was also engraved with dense text, which, although completely covered by incense residue, could still be identified as Sanskrit scriptures under X-ray vision.

Most importantly, he also saw several Chinese characters in the lower left corner of the gold leaf: "Issued during the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty".

Implemented during the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty!

This is the signature mark of a gilt bronze incense burner made in the imperial court during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty!

Court bronzes from the Yongle period, especially Buddhist ritual implements, are extremely valuable on the market.

A well-preserved Yongle gilt bronze incense burner is worth at least tens of millions of yuan on the market.

Normally, such marks are found on the outer belly or other parts of the bronze censer during casting, but this incense burner in front of us has no marks on the outside.

Xu Xing examined it carefully again and confirmed that the gold leaf was not a later fabrication, but was specially added after the casting was completed.

In addition, the craftsmanship of this incense burner itself is from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, but because it lacks an inscription, it is very likely that it was privately cast after the Yongle period.

Its value shouldn't be very high, maybe three to five hundred thousand at most.

However, the gold leaf inside is very likely to prove the origin of this incense burner, especially the hidden Sanskrit scriptures on it, which could increase the value of this incense burner tenfold or even a hundredfold!

Xu Xing took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, and walked calmly to the stall.

He crouched down, picked up a few items and looked them over, then pointed to the incense burner and asked casually, "Boss, how much is this?"

Upon hearing Xu Xing's question, the stall owner looked up, glanced at the bronze incense burner Xu Xing was pointing to, and then slowly exhaled a smoke ring without directly quoting a price.

"Young man, you have a good eye."

He shoved his phone into his pocket, stood up, picked up the incense burner, and weighed it in his hand. "This is a real gem, an official product from the Yongle era. Look at the bronze and the craftsmanship; it's definitely not an ordinary item."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xing's lips twitched slightly.

He had anticipated that the stall owner would pull this stunt. Nine out of ten sellers in the antique market would exaggerate the value of their items, almost to the point of claiming a Republic-era imitation was a Song Dynasty official kiln piece.

He wasn't in a hurry, waiting for the stall owner to finish blowing on the inscription before slowly asking, "Boss, you said this was made by the Yongle imperial court, so where's the mark?"

The stall owner's smile froze slightly.

Xu Xing continued, "The bronze wares made by the Yongle government, regardless of their shape, will have the inscription 'Made in the Yongle reign of the Great Ming Dynasty' or 'Improved in the Yongle reign of the Great Ming Dynasty' on their bottom or belly."

I've examined this item of yours over and over again, and there's not even a mark, let alone a signature.

He paused, then added in a flat tone, "You're telling me that a bronze artifact without any inscription is an official masterpiece? That might fool a layman, but it won't work on me."
