"Peace and happiness?"

At this time, Bao Longtu took the wooden Ruyi handed over by Fang Yuan. After looking at it for a while, a strange expression appeared on his face: "Wanzi, I know that magic weapons are hard to find, but you can't be too perfunctory."

"Who is just perfunctory?" Fang Yuan said with a smile: "This is a good thing...forget it, you may not understand it, anyway, when Boss Xiong sees it, do you believe that he will definitely rush to get it?"

"Uh..." Bao Longtu said suspiciously, "Really or not? I don't study well, so don't lie to me."

"Go away, you have a master's degree and you have the nerve to say that you have little education. You have disgusting intentions, right?" Fang Yuan rolled his eyes.

"I'm talking about Feng Shui books, not modern textbooks."

"You win..." Fang Yuan felt that he had underestimated Bao Longtu's shamelessness, and did not intend to argue with him anymore, so he simply changed the subject: "What about you, what other antiques did you buy?"

"Hey, baby." Bao Longtu immediately became happy and said with a smile on his face: "An ancient mirror, I think it may be from the Han Dynasty. The stall owner offered 30,000 yuan, but I reduced it to 10,000 yuan, and finally the deal was completed."

"Ancient mirror?" Fang Yuan hesitated: "Are you sure?"

"Nonsense, don't underestimate me." Bao Longtu glared and said, "Even if I don't have enough experience to determine the specific age of the ancient mirror, I can still tell whether it is an antique or a fake."

"Really?" Fang Yuan chuckled and said, "If it's not from the Republic of China period, you'll be at a big loss."

"It's not that miserable." Bao Longtu shook his head and said: "I have studied it carefully and found that the rust spots on the ancient mirror are very serious. It is definitely not just a few decades old, but at least hundreds of years..."

"As long as you have an idea."

Fang Yuan didn't say anything more. After all, this was Bao Longtu's hobby. If he was willing to spend money on this, it was also his freedom. Besides, to put it bluntly, with Fang Yuan's current wealth, he really couldn't.

Keep ten thousand dollars in mind.

Of course, being wealthy does not mean that Fang Yuan likes to spend money carelessly. Besides, he has now somewhat experienced the joy of picking up leaks as Bao Longtu said. Buying great value for money at the lowest cost,

It may be difficult for people without experience to understand the sense of satisfaction and achievement involved.

"Boss Bear."

While talking, the two of them also arrived at Baihui House in Feng Shui Street. As soon as they arrived at the door, Bao Longtu greeted him loudly: "Are you there? We are here to see you."

"Hey, here comes the distinguished guest." Xiong Mao looked up and immediately greeted him with a smile: "Master Fang, why are you so interested in visiting me today?"

"It's not just a drop-in, it's just a pick-up." Bao Longtu said boldly: "I just bought a treasure. Boss Xiong, would you like to take a look and open your eyes?"

Xiong Mao was startled for a moment, then he said with a smile: "This is such a great love, I couldn't ask for it more."

"Boss Xiong, don't listen to his nonsense. What he bought is an antique." Fang Yuan smiled and reminded Xiong to avoid disappointment.

"Who says antiques can't be treasures?" Bao Longtu rolled his eyes and said, "Besides, what I bought is an ancient mirror. Although I don't read much, I also know that ancient mirrors may also be magical objects."

"That makes sense." Xiong Mao said with a smile: "I also have a lot of mirror-type magic tools in my shop, especially the Bagua mirror, which has the wonderful functions of warding off evil spirits, calming down the house, and transforming evil spirits."

"Look, I was right." Bao Longtu said with a proud smile: "It was because of this that I bought antique mirrors, which might also be magic weapons."

"I know you are very smart." Fang Yuan chuckled and said, "I hope you get what you want and don't waste your time."

"Absolutely impossible." Bao Longtu was confident, and then carefully peeled off the newspaper wrapping the ancient mirror.

After a while, the true appearance of the ancient mirror was revealed in front of everyone. Fang Yuan took a look and saw that it was indeed an ancient bronze mirror, with mottled green rust covering the surface, full of historical vicissitudes.

"How is it? It's not bad."

At this time, Bao Longtu commented: "Look, the ancient mirror is round, about fifteen or six centimeters in diameter. It has a chrysanthemum pattern on the button base, and there are string patterns dividing the pattern into two inner and outer circles. The inner circle is filled with wavy patterns filled with flowers.

The leaves form a big treasure flower, and the outer circle is twelve grapevines. The texture is bronze, full of green rust, and the coating is very antique, with no trace of old age. It is definitely the real thing."

"Let me take a look." Xiong Mao was also somewhat interested. After taking the ancient mirror from Bao Longtu, he looked at it carefully for a moment, then nodded lightly and said, "Well, it looks pretty good."

"Is it a magic weapon?" Bao Longtu's eyes lit up.

"Haha, I didn't say that." Xiong Mao said with a smile, "I just think these patinas have a certain charm to them."

"Boss Xiong, you are really discerning." Bao Longtu was not disappointed when he heard that the thing was not a magic weapon. Instead, he praised: "Bronze utensils, what I appreciate is the vicissitudes of copper rust. It has not only green rust, but also yellow rust."

, there are also black rust and red rust, which are all kinds of strange and wonderful..."

"Haha, that's wonderful." After Xiong Mao agreed, he returned the ancient mirror to Bao Longtu. He deals in magical artifacts, not antiques. Even if the ancient mirror is valuable, his interest will not be very great.

"I'll have to find a master to help me identify it later." Bao Longtu took the ancient mirror back and pondered: "Judging from the mirror pattern, this may not be a Han mirror, maybe it is a Tang Dynasty mirror. If it is

Tang Jing, I’m about to send it..."

"Is the Tang mirror valuable?" Fang Yuan asked curiously: "It seems that the Han Dynasty is even older."

"Tch, I will tell you are a novice collector when I hear it." Bao Longtu said with disdain: "The value of antiques always comes first in quality. When the quality is equal, it depends on the age and rarity."

"Among all the dynasties, the casting technology of Tang mirrors is undoubtedly the highest. That's why in the past few years, when collecting was at its peak, one Tang mirror sold for tens of millions." Bao Longtu sighed with admiration:

"However, in the past two years, investment in collections has become more rational, and the price of Tang mirrors has slowly dropped."

"Of course, there is a limit to the price drop. The average Tang mirror can be sold for at least tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but the ancient mirror in my hand is relatively well preserved, with very clear mirror patterns and even mirror inscriptions. As long as you can

It’s definitely from the Tang Dynasty, so it’s no problem to estimate it at two to three hundred thousand.”

Having said this, Bao Longtu's mouth watered and his eyes were filled with anticipation.

"Jing Ming?"

For a moment, Fang Yuan looked over: "What mirror inscription?"

"That's it..." Bao Longtu stretched out his hand to indicate: "It's covered by patina, but when you touch it, you can tell it's a mirror inscription, which seems to be a seal script."

"What seal script?" Fang Yuan reached out and touched it, and then he was stunned: "It's strange!"

"What's weird?" Bao Longtu asked puzzledly: "What's wrong?"

"There is an aura..." Fang Yuan muttered: "It's a very weak aura. If I hadn't been exposed to it, I would have ignored it."

"What?" When Bao Longtu heard this, his eyes widened a bit. Then he was filled with surprise and put the ancient mirror into Fang Yuan's hand: "Look, hurry up and see if this is a magic weapon."

"It's really aura?" At the same time, Xiong Mao couldn't calm down anymore and hurriedly squeezed over to take another look. You know, the thing just turned around in his hand. He looked at it and judged that it was not a magic weapon. Now Fang Yuan said that the ancient mirror

He has an aura and is clearly a slap in the face.

"...The patina is too thick." Fang Yuan didn't pay attention to Xiong Mao's thoughts. He picked up the ancient mirror and looked at it for a while, then immediately said: "Boss Xiong, you have a towel here, lend it to me."

"Here..." Bao Longtu had quick eyesight and took a rag directly from the side of the coffee table.

"Baozi, do you mind if I wipe off a layer of the patina?" Fang Yuan gestured: "After wiping it hard once, it may destroy the beauty of the patina you mentioned."

"It doesn't matter." Bao Longtu waved his hand and said: "Anyway, all that can be wiped away are rust chips. The real patina is integrated with the ancient mirror and grows from the inside. Let alone rubbing it, it may not be damaged even if it is scratched.

It can be broken open."

"In that case, I'll wipe it off."

While speaking, Fang Yuan started wiping the ancient mirror with a rag. His movements were gentle and gentle, and his strength was neither light nor heavy. He first started to wipe the edge of the ancient mirror, and then worked from the outside to the inside, going deeper bit by bit.

.

After two or three minutes, Fang Yuan wiped the ancient mirror completely. The ancient mirror immediately became much cleaner, but the price he paid was that the rag was covered with rust chips.

At the same time, Fang Yuan changed into another towel, and then his strength changed from light to heavy, and he began to rub the mirror inscription harder. After a while, the patina covering the mirror inscription faded, and the seal script inscription gradually became clear.

"It's a treasure to have, Yi Zi Yi Ding!" It has to be said that Bao Longtu's ancient writing skills are very good. After Fang Yuan stopped, he could identify the seal script after some research.

"Ah." At the same time, Xiong Mao was startled: "This thing is really a magic weapon."

"Really?" Bao Longtu was overjoyed: "You read that right, right?"

"I can't make a mistake this time." Xiong Mao said with a wry smile: "Master Fang takes action, there is no reason to be wrong."

"Boss Xiong was negligent for a moment and didn't notice the mirror inscription." Fang Yuan smiled and explained: "Who would have expected that the aura was not condensed in the grape pattern, but was instead condensed in the seal script mirror inscription.

"

"Master Fang, there is no need to comfort me. If you make a mistake, you will make a mistake." Xiong Mao said calmly: "Besides, losing to Master Fang is not a shame."

"Don't play riddles." At this moment, Bao Longtu kept urging with an excited expression: "Tell me, why is the ancient mirror a magical weapon again?"

"It depends on the mirror pattern and the mirror inscription." Fang Yuan explained with a smile: "The mirror pattern is a bunch of grapes. In traditional Chinese customs, grapes mean many children and grandchildren, and prosperity, and the mirror inscription also undoubtedly points to this.

Understanding this and finding the treasure, Yi Zi Yi Ding, fully shows that this ancient mirror was full of auspicious wishes when it was cast."

"In other words, the ancient mirror had the function of praying from the beginning." Xiong Mao added: "However, for ancient mirrors like this, the aura is usually condensed in the grape pattern, but I didn't expect that this ancient mirror could actually
