C17 Brilliant Spiritual Light
This suggestion was exactly what Yang Xu wanted, how could he not agree.
After a short while, under Mu Yunxi's communication, the person arrived.
"Master Yang, let me introduce you. This is the provincial capital's Chairman Qian Jiande. Our Haidong Province's biggest antiques market is Boss Qian's business." After Mu Yunxi introduced them, she continued, "This time's auction will also have Daoist Master Zhang's scriptures and the jade that you have taken a fancy to, they are all from Chairman Qian's collection."
The provincial capital, with the surname Qian. The pair of jade pots and spring bottles containing the Primordial Azure Flowers that he had bid for earlier were taken away by him.
Qian Jiande was not tall and was a bit fat. He had a beer belly and he spoke very smoothly: "Master Yang? "Could it be that a new upstart in Bai Mountain is a young hero? It's my pleasure to meet you.
A glimmer flashed in Yang Xu's eyes. He had to confirm whether Qian Jiande was a cultivator or not at the first possible moment.
Unsurprisingly, not only did this person not have any talent for cultivation, his body had long been emptied by the alcohol and sex.
However, since he was able to obtain rare items like the scriptures and spirit stones from Daoist Master Zhang, he could be considered a capable antique dealer.
"Director Qian doesn't know. This Mr Yang is indeed an appraiser of treasures." Uncle Han's face was cold as he said in a strange tone, "With his appraisal, all of the auction items here are not as valuable as your common jade."
It was a woman around 30 years old with a plump figure. She wore glasses on her face and appeared to be quite intelligent and elegant. After hearing Qian Jiande's words, she slightly paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "In our antique industry, we very much welcome people like Mr Yang. If you want to buy anything next time, you must come to me."
This was clearly mocking Yang Xu for being blind. Entering the antique market, he was definitely going to be treated as a fool.
"Let's get to know each other. I'm Mr. Qian's collection consultant, Peng Hui." The intellectual woman stretched out her hand as if she was joking, but a look of disdain flashed in her eyes.
What collection consultant, it should be said that Qian Jiande's mistress is more appropriate.
Yang Xu didn't even bother to look at such a woman and directly ignored her.
Peng Hui's hand froze on the spot. She couldn't advance or retreat, so a trace of anger flashed across her face.
At this moment, Mu Yunxi smiled like a blooming flower, attracting everyone's attention. "Chief Qian, this piece of jade is yours. Why don't you tell us where it came from, how is it?"
"That's right, Director Qian. You can judge the value of this jade stone by yourself. This is comparable to the scripture written by Daoist Master Zhang!" Uncle Han agreed coldly, he seemed to have seen Yang Xu's embarrassing situation.
Qian Jiande touched his chin in contemplation. He was obviously happy that Yang Xu was boasting so much about his stuff. However, Uncle Han and Lili were both experts, so they could only helplessly say, "I hope little brother can borrow your blessings. However, I don't know what's so special about this piece of jade."
The moment she said that, Mu Yunxi became even more confused. She couldn't help but glance at Yang Xu.
Uncle Han also frowned, suspecting that Qian Jiande was lying.
Only Peng Hui seemed to know the origins of the jade. She smiled mockingly.
"Master Han, don't look at me like that. What I said is the truth." Qian Jiande spread his hands, "About seven or eight years ago, there were three experts who came looking for me. They said that they just dug up a large grave and sent me a batch of underworld tools. Among them are these jades."
"They say that in the midst of the battle, they accidentally destroyed the golden lamp in the necropolis. After the lamp shattered, the jade stone was revealed."
"The reason why I'm auctioning this item this time around is because I want a knowledgeable person to know its value. It can also increase my experience."
Hearing this, Uncle Han frowned as he examined the jade in the bulletproof glass. "Judging from the gold plating on the jade, it should be the Ming Dynasty's ancient tomb, right?"
Peng Hui's eyes immediately lit up as she said with a smile, "Master Han's eyes are sharp as a torch, his words are absolutely correct. He is indeed the ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty."
"Hehe, it's just some basic ability." Uncle Han stroked his sparse beard, a happy scene of a master, his eyes flashed with a sneer, "Little brother Yang, how is it? Are you convinced now?"
From gilding? The Ming Dynasty's ancient tomb?
Yang Xu couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "This is nonsense."
Uncle Han's eyes turned cold as he harrumphed, "You won't cry even if you don't see the coffin. Are you still trying to pester him when he's in person?"
"Master Yang Fu is indeed suitable for making antiques." "When Chief Qian purchased this jade, although I haven't become his advisor yet, before the auction, I personally helped Chief Qian with his eyes. Judging from the gold-plated method, you can conclude that it is the tomb of the Ming Dynasty's Yongle era."
The two of them sang the same tune as if this was the truth and Yang Xu was just a stubborn man.
Even Mu Yunxi started to waver. She whispered, "Master Yang, you are a wonder of this world. Why are you being so picky?"
Only Qian Jiande's eyes flashed with a bright light. He didn't pay attention to Han and Peng's words and instead excitedly stepped forward and said, "Wu Junfu, according to your judgement, when did this ancient tomb come from?"
Yang Xu didn't know much about appraising treasures, but he knew about common sense, the common sense of ancient China's cultivation world.
"This must be the Northern Song Dynasty's ancient tomb." He said lightly.
In the past, Zhang Sanfeng entered the Dao through martial arts, and by chance, he entered the cultivation world. It could be said that he was the last cultivator of ancient Hua Xia, and he didn't even follow the orthodox cultivation path.
That was why cultivators had disappeared from China long ago during the Yuan Ming period. He had confirmed this matter from Zhang Sanfeng.
However, the golden lamp had been used to hide the spirit stones, so it was obvious that the value of the spirit stones was not low. It should have been in an era when cultivators were still around, and the value of the spirit stones had not been lost for a long time.
Then it could only be before the Northern Song Dynasty.
This is just a corollary of common sense.
"Hehe, since Director Qian has personally confirmed it, how can it be fake?!" Peng Hui burst into laughter.
However, Qian Jiande was stunned. He then turned around and scolded Peng Hui, "Shut up, useless thing. I asked you to appraise something and it turned out that you were completely wrong. If it wasn't for your looks, I would have already made you scram."
With that, he rushed to Yang Xu and said: "Master Yang Fu, you... "How do you know this is from before the Northern Song Dynasty? Do you know it?"
After saying that, he called the security guards beside him and removed the bulletproof glass cover.
Peng Hui was shocked. Although she was a woman and she rolled in bed with Qian Jiande, she did have real talent and rarely failed in appraising antiques. But now, it seemed like … Did Qian Jiande lie to her?
"Not only do I know that this thing was excavated from the Northern Song Dynasty's ancient tomb, I also know that the thing excavated at that time shouldn't be just a piece of jade like this." Seeing him so excited, Yang Xu was a little confused. Could it be that this Qian guy was a descendant of a cultivator and knew about spirit stones?
When Qian Jiande heard this, his eyes almost popped out, "Wu Junfu's foresight is god-like, you're absolutely right. At that time, that grave robber sold me over a hundred pieces of this jade. I've been searching for years, you're the first person who accurately told me where they came from, and you've pointed out more than one piece!"
Finishing his words, he sighed, "To be honest, that tomb is an ancient tomb of the Tang Dynasty, and there are many treasures of the Tang Dynasty as evidence. However, all these years, I have never found out what the Golden Light Hidden Jade Stone means, which is why I did not make a move and kept it."
The more they chatted, the more they grew more intimate they became. From the looks of it, it was definitely not a fake, so Uncle Han could no longer remain calm. "Director Qian, you …" Are you sure? "
Qian Jiande glared at him and was too lazy to bother with him. Instead, he muttered to himself: "This treasure is in my hands and is covered in dust like a bright pearl. If Wu Junfu is willing to tell me the name of this Hidden Jade Stone, I will gift this hundred pieces to Wu Junfu."
"No idea." Yang Xu suddenly laughed lightly, "That tomb lord is the same as me, he knows the true function of this jade. That's why he used the golden lamp to conceal it, that's all."
"Then what is the use of this jade stone? And why did you get attention from the Master of the Tombs? " Qian Jiande hurriedly asked, looking like a man who had seen a peerless beauty.
"Director Qian is right, Mr Yang's mouth is full of white teeth. Even if he was right about the origin of the jade, he couldn't explain clearly why it is more valuable than the scripture written by Daoist Master Zhang!" Uncle Han's face was grim as he made his last stand. If he were to make a mistake in front of Mu Yunxi today, it would be too much of a blow.
"It's just a sharp tongue. Without solid evidence, I won't be able to convince you." Peng Hui was scolded so harshly because of Yang Xu that she did not dare to hate Qian Jiande, so she naturally blamed Yang Xu.
Even Mu Yunxi's eyes lit up, hoping that Yang Xu would tell her the secret.
Yang Xu thought about it for a while, then slightly nodded: "Since that's the case, I'll let you guys experience the true appearance of a precious jade."
Then, he opened his palm and closed it. When he opened his palm again, the jade had already been peeled off, revealing the uneven surface.
Everyone was dumbstruck by the method he used to retrieve items through the air.
"Watch carefully." Yang Xu's mind trembled as he dragged the Spirit Stone with him. The essence of life in his body began to churn, using it to draw upon the essence of life in the Spirit Jade.
Instantly, a phenomenon occurred.
Multicolored light blossomed from the spirit jade, like a halo of the sun. An auspicious and pleasant aura flowed in the air.
The light became brighter and brighter, enveloping the entire piece of spiritual jade in a mysterious and unpredictable light. However, what was even more shocking was that this light ball started to float, rising from Yang Xu's palm to a height of three inches.
The security room was silent.
