Seeing Ye Cheng's bid, the most surprised one was Third Master Zheng.
This was because Third Master Master Zheng could already tell that Ye Cheng was a super expert in the appraisal industry.
However, Ye Cheng didn't make a move during the entire auction. It seemed that he wasn't interested in any of the items.
Ye Cheng had made an unprecedented bid for this seemingly trashy, unremarkable, and worthless wooden cow!
"20,000 dollars." Third Master Zheng also made a bid for the first time.
Gasps rose and fell in the audience.
Although it was just a hobby, Third Master Zheng was very famous in the antique circle.
Today, Third Master Zheng didn't make a move. It was fine if he didn't make a move, but once he made a move, he would definitely shock everyone!
"Mr. Ye, that wooden cow?”He Xiang and Boss Ma looked at Ye Cheng.
In fact, Ye Cheng had only discovered it. In the eyes of the wooden cow, which was also in the pebbles, there were smuggled goods. Perhaps there would be some leftovers, but Ye Cheng was not too sure what it was.
Hu Yifei was very excited to see her man make a move.
"30,000 dollars." Ye Cheng didn't raise the price and just played casually.
"Ha ~~~ Interesting, very interesting.”Third Master Zheng grabbed the wooden cow and started to appraise it again.
In fact, he had already appraised it before, and just like Ye Cheng, he had some doubts about this wooden ox. He believed that it shouldn't be in the tomb of the Eastern Han royal family.
However, after carefully appraising it several times, it was still determined to be a waste product.
This time, he examined it again.
The eyes of a cow were obviously cobblestones, and the surface was full of uneven sand grains.
There were several people sitting below, and all of them went up to identify them. Then, he quickly shook his head.
Finally, Third Master Zheng put down the wooden cow, rubbed his temples, and smiled at Ye Cheng. "Young man, forgive me for being blind, but I really can't see anything special about this wooden cow. I won't argue with you anymore. However, can you explain it to all of us?”
This Third Master Zheng was obviously richer than Ye Cheng, but he suppressed his curiosity and gave up on fighting with Ye Cheng for the wooden cow. He didn't use money to smash Ye Cheng to death. This made Ye Cheng have a good impression of him.
"Sure." Ye Cheng smiled, then walked up and transferred 30,000 yuan to the two grave robbers.
The wooden ox was used by Yecheng.
Ye Cheng flipped through it and said in a clear voice. "This wooden cow is quite large and is made of a tenon structure. This wooden cow's torso, limbs, tail, ears, and horns are all individually cut into wooden blocks, and then assembled in the form of a riveted body. Each part of the model showed the demeanor and personality of a cow. One detail that could not be ignored was that the tail of the cow was longer, and it formed an arc when it rose and fell. This was very consistent with the tail shape of animals such as horses and cows in the Han Dynasty. Before or after the Han Dynasty, the tails of the animal figurines rarely flowed and danced. The ends of the tails were mostly retracted or drooped.”
"Mm…" After saying that, Ye Cheng held the wooden cow and broke it.
Kacha!
He broke the wooden bull in half.
With a shake, two pebbles fell down.
Ye Cheng held the pebbles in his hands. The two pebbles were about the size of goose eggs, and the surface was covered with yellow sand.
"Young man, is there a secret behind these two rocks?”Third Master Zheng was shocked. "Can I take a look again?"
Ye Cheng was also an open and aboveboard person. He directly handed the pebble over.
Third Master Zheng took it and weighed it in his hand."There's nothing wrong with it. It's just an ordinary pebble."”
Then, he returned the pebble to Ye Cheng.
Ye Cheng picked up a pebble and gestured. "Everyone, please take a look. The lighter half of each pebble is the cow's eyes that are exposed. The darker half is hidden inside the wooden cow. Now-"
The sand on the surface of the second half of the pebble began to fall.
Because Ye Cheng had learned the Taizu Fist (Upper, Middle, and Lower) skill book, his strength was very strong. With a squeeze, the sand on the back half of the pebble was quickly peeled off.
He revealed his true colors!
Inside were two round beads, each one about a size bigger than a dragon's eye, emitting a misty luster.
"This is..."
Ye Cheng's heart shook as he shouted. "Please turn off the lights."
"Turn off the lights." Third Master Zheng's pupils constricted as he immediately called out.
All of a sudden, the lights in the room went out and it was pitch black.
However, a few seconds later, the two pearls in Ye Cheng's hands emitted a bright light like the moon, directly illuminating the entire room!
"Okay, that's enough. Please turn on the lights.”Ye Cheng's voice trembled slightly.
The lights were switched on.
"This thing is the legendary luminous pearl!”Ye Cheng said with certainty.
"L-luminous pearl…" Third Master Zheng's eyes lit up.
"Yes, the luminous pearl is a type of rare gemstone. In ancient times, it was known as the 'following pearl',' hanging pearl','hanging pearl',' hanging thorn','moon pearl', and so on. Actually, using modern scientific appraisal methods, the luminous pearl is a type of diamond that can absorb light and emit light by itself. Yes, it's a type of diamond!”Ye Cheng had really picked up a big leak this time. "The luminous pearl is one of the most precious diamonds.”
"Yes…There's one in the British Museum. It's estimated to be worth 150 million yuan, but it's not as good as these two…" Third Master Zheng's eyes were wide open. "Young man, I like this thing very much. How about this? Give me both of them and I'll give you 400 million yuan.”
This caused an uproar!
30,000 RMB to buy it, 400 million RMB to resell it!
This was like going to the heavens!
"Speechless…This is crazy!”Hu Yifei felt like she was running out of oxygen.
"God! God! You can still pick up the leftovers like this!" Boss Ma was completely impressed.
"Miss Hu, your boyfriend is really awesome. To be able to find such a boyfriend, this…I have to say, Miss Hu is the embodiment of the lucky goddess.”Lan Baoshan said fawningly.
Hu Yifei said proudly. "Of course. But I like him as a person, not his money.”
"Okay, Zheng Sanye's bid is 400 million. Sold."”Ye Cheng snapped his fingers.
