Some friends may ask, in addition to Old Monster Ding, isn¡¯t there also the man who met Old Monster Ding that day? Didn't you keep up? The fact is that this person did run away that day. I don¡¯t know whether he had strong anti-stalking ability and discovered the person who was following him, or he was too vigilant and got rid of the person who was following him. Judging from the strange reaction of Old Monster Ding, it is more likely that the stalker has been discovered. Because of this incident, Mr. Liu not only scolded the investigators, but also replaced them. After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Zhang Lu was a little dumbfounded, with a look of disbelief on his face, but faced with the ironclad facts, he had nothing to say, and in the end he could only accept that for him Extremely cruel reality. After a while, Zhang Lu asked reluctantly: "Teacher Chu, do you mean that this thing has no value at all?" Chu Chen replied: "Doesn't it mean that it has no value at all? Judging from its production process, it is still relatively exquisite, but the bad thing is that the manufacturer used a method of accelerating oxidation. Although I can't see any bad consequences now, it will be difficult to say after a long time. And this will definitely have an impact on the value of this thing. "How much can it be worth at most?" Zhang Lu asked again. Chu Chen thought for a while and said: "It's hard to say in terms of value. I think if I meet someone I like, I should be able to sell it for a thousand yuan." "It's over, it's over, it's over this time!" Zhang Lu After hearing this, his face turned pale immediately, and he blamed himself all the time: "Why didn't I know to be more careful when I was buying things? What should I do now?" Seeing Zhang Lu's despair. Chu Chen could only comfort him a few words, and after a while. After Zhang Lu's mood stabilized a little, he asked: "Brother Zhang. I wonder if your friend is in the capital?" "Yes, he is in the capital. I want to find him to settle the score!" Chu Chen's words After reminding Zhang Lu, he stood up with a bang and was about to walk out. Chu Chen quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Zhang, don't be impatient." Zhang Lu said impatiently, "I have to be impatient about this. The money to buy this thing is something my family has saved for many years." Savings. I originally thought I could keep it for a year or two and then sell it to make a profit, but I didn¡¯t expect this to happen. How could I explain it to my mother and I? " Chu Chen said that he would use all the money in the family to buy it! I strongly disagree with antiques. Just like Zhang Lu, if you buy a fake, you will lose all your money. Zhang Lu should also know the consequences of this. However, like many buyers who suffered losses in the end, they were lucky at first, thinking that they would not encounter such a thing, but the results often backfired. It¡¯s done. Of course, Chu Chen would not expose Zhang Lu's scars again, and said slowly: "Brother Zhang, let me ask you a question first. Did you sign a purchase agreement with the seller?" Zhang Lu shook his head: "No, but it's something It's fake. Doesn't he have to be responsible? " "Did he clearly say that it was real when he sold it to you? Will he deny it now?" After asking two questions, he continued: "Furthermore, you should also know that in our industry, it is difficult to return an eyelash. Even if you file a lawsuit, you have no agreement to prove it, and it is difficult to have a chance of winning. Of course, there is another possibility. Your If your friend is a gentleman, or the friendship between you is relatively deep, he may return the money to you." Zhang Lu opened his mouth and said dejectedly: "I have only known him for three months. What is his personality like? , I¡¯m not sure. But is this the case?¡± ¡°That¡¯s definitely not possible,¡± Chu Chen said, ¡°Brother Zhang, what I mean is that something like this was actually made by a group. , we are now tracing the whereabouts of the main leader of this group" After hearing this, Zhang Lu reacted and said, "Teacher Chu, what you want to say is that you should first investigate the person who sold me something. Does he have any connection with this gang? " "Yes, as for your loss" Chu Chen pondered for a moment and asked: "Brother Zhang, I wonder what kind of antiques you are good at?" "Zhang Lu is not very good at it. Understanding why Chu Chen asked, he answered honestly: "What I'm best at is probably stationery supplies. I've also studied porcelain, but now it seems" Chu Chen smiled slightly: "The piece of porcelain you bought is like raw porcelain. The level of imitation is very high, even some experts may not be able to see it, so I don¡¯t think you need to talk about it.¡± Zhang Lu smiled bitterly, even if Chu Chen said this, he might not touch it for a while in the future. Porcelain worth more than 100 Yuan is worth it.From now on I can only hide. Chu Chen continued: "You also know that my museum has just opened and the collection is not very rich. If you have some better stationery supplies in the future, you can bring them over and I will buy them at the market price." Hearing what Chu Chen said, Zhang Lu couldn't be more moved. As mentioned before, although antiques have a market price, it only serves as a reference. Generally, people rarely buy at market prices, and most of them are lower than market prices. Chu Chen Doing this is equivalent to giving him money for free. For Chu Chen, although he suffered a little loss, as long as the things were genuine, the loss would come back soon, and maybe he could still make a fortune in three to five years. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? back To a certain extent, it can be regarded as helping Zhang Lu and himself. "Teacher Chu, I" Chu Chen patted Zhang Lu on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhang, I can only help you a little. The key is to see your eyesight. However, to put it bluntly, If you are buying antiques for investment, it is best not to invest all your money, otherwise it will be too late to regret. " "Yes!" Zhang Lu sighed: "I am just too lucky, otherwise it would not be the case. Such a big loss.¡± Next, Zhang Lu handed over the detailed information of the seller to Chu Chen. The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Lu took something. He left with a feeling of surviving the disaster. Similarly, Chu Chen also called Mr. Liu. And told Mr. Liu the relevant information. Hearing the news, Mr. Liu was also very happy and quickly informed the news. Chu Chen brought the Chixiao Sword to the laboratory. At this time, Du Yile and several researchers were testing the maintenance measures of the bronze. After saying hello, Du Yile said with a smile: "Director, you are finally here. Director Yu complained to me at noon, saying that you left everything to him. As a result, he didn't buy anything these days. The tourists who got the tickets were almost scolded to death. " Chu Chen said with a smile: "I have decided to take the imperial seal to the Forbidden City for display. After tomorrow, senior brother will not be so worried. " Du Yi Lewen. Yan Yi was startled, but also admired Chu Chen's decision, and then smiled and said: "That's good, otherwise there will be too many people, which will have a greater impact on the cultural relics, especially those bronzes that are not well preserved. The impact will be particularly great. "Chu Chen nodded in agreement: "Let's look at the data after the passenger flow stabilizes. If there are still more tourists, then the museum will be expanded." Du Yile said happily: "I agree with this with both hands and feet, but it seems like it is around us. There¡¯s no room left, right?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve already bought the shopping mall next door.¡± Chu Chen has already considered the expansion of the museum. When the renovation here is about to be completed, it will be the same as the shopping mall next door. The boss signed the purchase agreement. Of course, since the other party is not in a hurry to sell. The price Chu Chen gave was much more expensive than buying the current place. But even so, the original owner of the shopping mall is now almost regretful. If he had known that Chu Chen had such a national treasure as the Imperial Seal, he would definitely have ordered more. Now, this is all he can do. He would definitely not dare to do such a thing anyway. Hearing what Chu Chen said, everyone suddenly realized. No wonder they saw the shopping mall next door starting to move in the past few days. They thought it was very strange at first, but now they know that this is the case. "Director, you are really generous." Du Yile gave Chu Chen a thumbs up. Then he looked at the cloth bag in Chu Chen's hand and asked, "Director, I didn't know you brought another What good stuff is coming?" Chu Chen chuckled, took out the Chixiao Sword, and said, "This is a treasure. Don't be dumbfounded when you see it." Du Yile saw Chu Chen unexpectedly. He took out an iron rod and was a little confused. This thing was indeed enough to make him dumbfounded, but it had nothing to do with the baby, right? Chu Chen looked at Du Yile's confused look, laughed, and then pulled out the sword. Seeing a bronze sword with a blade like frost and snow appearing in front of them, Du Yile and the researchers were really dumbfounded. After a while, Du Yile came back to his senses and asked with a trembling voice: "Director, you don't mean to say that this is another sword of the same level as the Fish Intestine Sword, right?" Chu Chen chuckled. : "In terms of ranking, it ranks third, which is higher than the fish intestines." "Third?" Du Yile pondered for a moment, then reacted immediately, and said a little tongue-tied: "Could this be the Chixiao Sword? ? ¡± Chu Chen nodded with a smile: "Yes, if nothing else, it is Chixiao!" "No way! This is actually the Chixiao sword that Liu Bang used to kill the white snake! It must have been more than two thousand years ago!" " How is this impossible? It's not like you haven't seen the Fish Intestine Sword" "Well you are right. Since the Fish Intestine Sword can be preserved to this day, Chi Xiao, who was later than it, can still be like this. "But the Red Sky Sword has seven-colored beads and nine-flower jade, why didn't you see it?" "Didn't you see that the scabbard is disguised? Maybe both of these things are inside." , or they have been taken away by others a long time ago. After all, these two things are also treasures" Just as everyone was talking about it, Du Yile also took the sword in his hand and observed it carefully, but after a while, his expression Suddenly, he raised his head and asked: "Director, why is there still water in the gaps on the sword? Did you wash it with water?" Chu Chen smiled and shook his head: "It has not been washed. , but it was stained with water" When he said this, he saw Du Yile's entire face turn dark, and he quickly said: "Old Du, don't worry, I also saw that this sword was not oxidized before staining it. It's water." After hearing this, Du Yile frowned and observed it carefully. His face immediately looked better, but he was still worried about it. Said: "Even if it is well preserved, water is the enemy of bronzes. It's a bit reckless of you to do this." Chu Chen still admired Du Yile's serious attitude. He smiled and said: "I did the same thing. There is a reason, and it was because of the water that we made a major discovery. "What discovery?" Du Yile asked curiously. Chu Chen said to a researcher: "Xiao Wang, go get a basin of water." As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw Yu Renpeng and Dean Sima walking in. After everyone said hello, Yu Renpeng asked. "Director, are you going to put the Imperial Seal on display in the Forbidden City?" Chu Chen apologized quickly: "Brother, I'm so sorry. A friend of mine happened to come over just now and forgot to tell you about this matter. Please ask me. Forgive me." Yu Renpeng smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I thought Sima was jealous and wanted to come over and rob him." Dean Sima smiled bitterly and said, "Old Yu, this is what I think of you. Image? Besides, with Director Chu here, I wouldn¡¯t dare to do it even if I¡¯m afraid of it!¡± ¡°Hey! You are more of a bandit than a bandit. Is there anything you wouldn¡¯t dare to do?¡± . Everyone else nodded in agreement. Dean Sima spread his hands and said helplessly: "Okay, this is my image in your minds anyway. You can think whatever you want." Everyone laughed one after another. At this time, Dean Sima noticed Du Yile's hand and asked with a smile: "I'm talking about Lao Du. What good thing do you have in your hand? Can you let me see it?" Du Yile He smiled teasingly: "What if you get hurt by such a sharp sword? I can't bear this responsibility." "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter!" Dean Sima smiled mischievously: "What if you get hurt? "It's my own responsibility. It has nothing to do with you." "That's right. If you are really injured, your family will not come here to fight for your life." Yu Renpeng curled his lips and asked curiously. : "Laodu, what kind of sword is this?" "Chixiao." "What? Chixiao?!" Yu Renpeng was shocked, and Dean Sima even rushed towards the sword, scaring Chu Chen. He caught him. Chu Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Dean Sima, this is a sharp tool for blowing and breaking hair. You have to be careful." Yu Renpeng took the words and said: "That's right, Sima, can you stop talking so anxiously? It¡¯s not like you haven¡¯t seen the sharpness of the Fish Intestine Sword. If you really touch the blade, it¡¯s so light that it might kill you.¡± Dean Sima didn¡¯t care and said. : "Old Yu, what you said is a bit exaggerated." "This is really not an exaggeration" After saying that, Chu Chen asked Du Yile for the sword, and then fetched a basin full of water next to it. Put it in. "Hey! Don't uh this am I right?" Dean Sima never expected that Chu Chen would put the sword into the water. When he was about to step forward to stop Chu Chen, he Seeing the water in the basin, it unexpectedly flowed upward along the patterns on the sword body, and began to slowly turn red. This feeling is thisThe scene shocked everyone, and they all couldn't figure out why such an unnatural scene happened. After a while, everyone recovered from the shock. Yu Renpeng asked: "Junior brother, what is the principle of this?" "To be honest, I don't know why." Chu Chen shook his head. , said: "I used a high-power magnifying glass to look at it before, and I don't know what method the original maker used to create small pits in the lines of these patterns, and the water is absorbed in these small pits. It will only flow along the pattern and will not fall off even when it is laid flat." As he said that, Chu Chen laid the sword flat. Everyone saw that it was exactly as he said, and the water in the lines was firmly absorbed. On the line, there is no intention of falling off at all, just like a fairy spell. "Could it be that this sword was really made by an old god as in the legend?" Du Yile murmured. Legend has it that Liu Bang got the Red Sky Sword because he was going to Baiju Mountain, which suddenly burst into flames, to kill the Dragon King. At that time, after Liu Bang said goodbye to everyone, he took an ivy rope and an iron rod alone. With these two "weapons" in his hands, he boldly went straight to Baiju Mountain. However, due to the fire, Baiju Mountain was unbearably hot and the climb became more and more difficult. When Liu Bang climbed to the mountainside, the ivy ropes were already burning. When he climbed to the top of the mountain, Liu Bang only had an iron rod in his hand. After finally getting up the mountain, Liu Bang took a closer look and saw that there was no Dragon King on the mountain. He saw a gray-haired old man in the distance, concentrating on burning a big pot. Liu Bang felt very strange and stepped forward and asked: "Old man, where is the Dragon King?" The old man said: "What Dragon King? I am lighting a fire to prepare a sword." Liu Bang asked again: "Who are you making a sword for?" The old man said Said: "This sword was made by the emperor!" Liu Bang frowned and said: "When the emperor of today implements tyranny and the people suffer, aren't you helping the emperor to commit tyranny by giving him the sword?" The old man laughed and said: "This sword is for the future emperor. "Liu Bang felt that there was something wrong with the old man's mind, so he casually replied: "Please give it to me!" Before he finished speaking, the iron rod in Liu Bang's hand suddenly flew into the cauldron, and the iron rod melted when it entered the pot. , when Liu Bang was surprised, a sword slowly rose from the pot, the sword body was transparent and red light shone everywhere. Liu Bang grabbed the sword with one hand and saw the two seal characters "Chixiao" engraved on the sword. In a blink of an eye, he looked at the old man again, but he had disappeared. At this time, the fire in Baiju Mountain suddenly extinguished, and then the rain fell. Since then, this sword has accompanied Liu Bang in his subsequent Snake-Slaying Uprising, overthrowing the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty and establishing the foundation of the Han Dynasty. Later generations have poems to prove it: "The immortal cast a sword on Baiju Mountain, hoeing violent Anliang and killing corrupt officials. Liu Bang got the sword and ascended to the throne of the dragon, and protected the country with a three-foot red sky." (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for more novels.
