Apart from the color that is slightly different from the National Museum’s, the two lanterns today are the same in style, craftsmanship, functionality, and environmental value.”
“If you’re interested, you can come over and verify its authenticity before deciding if you want to auction it. the time is also five minutes. The starting price is 700000, ” the beautiful auctioneer said with a bright smile to the rich bosses present.
After the beautiful auctioneer finished speaking, a staff member carefully took out the goose-fish lamp and placed it on the glass display.
The crowd rushed forward, their eyes shining with a golden light as they looked at the exquisite Yanyu lamp.
This time, everyone was more cautious and no longer spoke easily. Whether this was real or fake, they all looked and observed carefully to see if it was real or fake. They knew in their hearts and did not speak out easily.
Everyone came here to search for treasures. Naturally, they wanted to use the lowest value to buy real antiques that were worth collecting.
Therefore, they were all competing with each other to see who had the most sharp eyes and could distinguish the real from the fake.
Lan Xiao stood still, while brother Jiang and qu Zheng whispered to each other, as if they were discussing the authenticity of the Yanyu lantern.
Lan Xiao waited until everyone had seen enough before she slowly moved forward to observe the goose fish lamp.
The two bronze goose-fish lamps had an extremely strange shape. They were in the shape of a wild goose standing with a fish in its mouth. The Wild Goose had a wide and fat body, a long and slender neck, wings on both sides of its body, a short tail, and webbed feet.
The Wild Goose opened its mouth and held a fish in it. The fish was short and fat, and it was connected to the lampshade.
The body of the goose and the body of the fish were hollow and connected to the lamp plate. There was a handle on one side of the lamp plate, which could control the rotation of the lamp plate.
The lampshade was designed as two arc-shaped plates, which could be turned left and right to open and close. It could block the wind and adjust the brightness.
[ a pair of bronze goose-fish lamps from the Western Han Dynasty, both authentic. Although its origin was unknown, it had the same effect as the ones in the museum. [ two goose and fish lamps, valuable, national treasure level cultural relics. ] System.
Lan Xiao pursed her lips and smiled. If such a pair of genuine items were sold at a low price, the person who bought it would make a fortune.
Mo fangyan’s eyes had been secretly sizing up Lan Xiao from the beginning to the end.
Seeing Lan Xiao standing there and pretending to check the goose and fish lamp, a sneer flashed in her eyes.
She had no intention of letting Lan Xiao off today.
If she didn’t ruthlessly step on Lan Xiao, her surname wouldn’t be mo.
She turned to look at Lin Shanhai, the expert appraiser she had brought with her.
“Do you think this goose and fish lamp is real or fake?”
Lin Shanhai was also quite capable. Otherwise, mo fangyan would not have paid such a high price to invite him to appraise antiques.
He took a closer look and finally concluded that it was fake.
“It’s fake. Are you sure?” mo fangyan raised her eyebrows.
“Although this goose-fish lamp is almost the same as the real one, it doesn’t come from any source. In fact, in some places, it’s even more exquisite than the real one. This was obviously an improvement made by the people of the later generations after the Western Han Dynasty. Although it’s not from the Western Han Dynasty, it’s at least one to two hundred years old.” Lin Shanhai’s eyes glowed as he spoke. He was very confident in his judgment and subconsciously raised his voice.
The people around them perked up their ears and listened.
Qu Zheng’s lips curled into a faint smile, but he didn’t say anything.
you mean, it’s not from the Western Han Dynasty, but someone from the Qing Dynasty made it after the Western Han Dynasty? ” Mo fangyan asked in a low voice.
Lin Shanhai nodded and said with certainty, ” “Yes, I am.”
Who knew that at this moment, Lan Xiao, who had been silent all this while, suddenly opened his mouth.
“In my opinion, advisor Lin is wrong. This goose-fish lamp is authentic, and it must be a rare treasure from the Western Han Dynasty. Of course, it’s still different from the ones in the National Museum, but it’s still a one-of-a-kind rare treasure.”
Mo fangyan looked at Lan Xiao in confusion.
He had been so timid and weak just a moment ago, with a guilty look on his face. How could he be so sure now that this goose and fish lantern was real?
Could it be that she had just embarrassed Lan Xiao?
Was Lan Xiao trying to regain his face so that he could continue to fool brother Jiang and gain his trust?
Mo fangyan shook her head. No, she couldn’t. She wouldn’t let Lan Xiao get what he wanted again.
“Lan Xiao, what you say is true, do you have any proof? A mere little girl actually dared to boast shamelessly and say that it was the real deal? I think you’re starting to fool me again, right? I advise you to stop stirring up trouble and keep quiet. There are so many experts here, how can you confuse them and fish in troubled waters?”
Lan Xiao shook his head and smiled.
“Miss mo, you don’t believe me? If you don’t believe me, then we can make a bet.”
“Alright, let’s bet then, who’s afraid of who? I’m a young lady of the mo family, why would I be afraid of a liar like you?” Mo fangyan was naturally not afraid and immediately agreed.
LAN xingbo moved in front of Lan Xiao with a headache and tugged on her sleeve, ” “Sister, you don’t know anything about this, so why did you bet with her? Don’t you see that the treasure consultant beside her is a slightly famous expert? Aren’t you obviously looking to lose?”
Lan Xiao glanced at him and smiled nonchalantly, ” “Where’s the net? I’ve cast it out. Now, I can slowly pull in the net. This time, I’m going to bet big.”
LAN xingbo was shocked, and he quickly gritted his teeth and chided, ” “Sister, I’ve advised you, but you just won’t listen, right? You want to bet big? are you crazy? Since consultant Lin had said that the goose and fish lantern was made after imitating the Western Han Dynasty, there was a 70% possibility that it was. Yingluo, this is obviously a bet that we will definitely lose, Yingluo.”
Mo fangyan looked at the brother and sister, who looked flustered and unconfident. She was in high spirits and was so happy that she was about to go crazy.
“Lan Xiao, don’t waste time. If you want to bet, hurry up. Time waits for no one. Could it be that you have a guilty conscience and are really a liar, hesitating to buy time here?”
“Of course not. Miss mo keeps calling me a liar, so I have to prove it and clear my name. “Since miss mo has agreed to the bet, let’s start the bet!” LAN Xin ignored LAN xingbo’s attempt to stop her and looked sharply at mo fangyan.
Mo fangyan put her hands together and clapped a few times.
“Good Zhenzhen, you said you wanted to bet. At that time, if you make a fool of yourself and lose face, don’t say that I bullied you Zhenzhen.”
“Fangyan, don’t mess around.” Mo chengyun pulled mo fangyan’s arm and said with a frown.
Mo fangyan slightly raised her eyebrows and looked at mo chengyun.
