"Hey, this coral is the best, and there is also this turquoise, without any iron wire..."

When Peng Bin opened the box, Sanpao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became extremely excited. Looking at the things in the box, he kept muttering, "The best, all the best. If these things are taken to the market, many people will be stunned..."

"Sanpao, aren't it just gems? This thing is not as valuable as you think..."

Seeing Sanpao's excited look, Peng Bin curled his lips and said, "I know the coral green pine you mentioned, but the foreign art market does not recognize these things. Only real money can be exchanged for money..."

When Peng Bin went abroad to study, in order not to shorten his money, he once secretly did a shot in his warehouse, which was to take away several pieces of amber and turquoise with him, and wanted to take them out and sell them when he had no money.

When Peng Bin became obsessed with Meteorite, the little money he had in his hands had long been ineffective, so Peng Bin put his ideas on the gems he brought and took them to an auction house he often went to, wanting to auction them out.

But what Peng Bin didn't expect was that the foreign appraiser did not buy the precious gems he brought. He finally identified the price of 3,000 US dollars for four or five items. This made Peng Bin regret it. He had known that he would have brought a few gold and silverware, and many of them were made of pure gold.

Later, through other channels, Peng Bin got the money, but after returning home, he threw the things he had stolen back into the warehouse. In Peng Bin's eyes, these things were worthless. If it weren't for finding an object for Fang Yi to pack the meteorite, Peng Bin wouldn't have remembered that there was such a box containing gold and silver jewelry at home.

"Brother Peng, don't care, these are all treasures that have been around for a long time..."

Sanpao interrupted Peng Bin's words and said excitedly: "In the past, Wenhua was listed in the miscellaneous category in the antique category, and it was not separately divided. These things here can be called the ancestors of Wenhua..."

Compared with the fat man, Sanpao definitely loves the business. Not only did he teach himself the accounting major, but he also asked a lot of knowledge about miscellaneous cultural relics when he was with Yu Xuan during this period. Yu Xuan taught him a lot of good things about the humble Sanpao.

"Brother, Sanpao is right, these things are indeed good..."

Fang Yi said a fair word next to him, but then he looked at Sanpao and said, "Sanpao, one time and another, the cultural relics today are different from that period. These are good things, but the prices are much lower than those of antiques. Of course, these old things can also be classified as antiques..."

The period Fang Yi mentioned was in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. During that period, there was a false prosperity in China, especially in Shanghai, where pawn shops and antique shops everywhere, which well interpreted this point.

So compared to the cultural and entertainment market in China, which has just begun to revive, the prices of things from that period are undoubtedly much more expensive than now.

For example, the coral green pine and beeswax and amber in the box were all gems. At that time, at least one large courtyard in Beijing could be replaced with three in and three out. However, in the current antique market, it could only be worth tens of thousands of yuan at best. Not to mention the courtyard in Beijing, I am afraid I can’t even buy a bathroom in an ordinary residential building.

"Yi Ge'er said that the price of cultural relics is still a bit lower than that of antiques..."

Hearing Fang Yi's words, Sanpao nodded. He knew that he was a little too excited just now. The gems in this box were indeed old things, but they were difficult to identify and classify. If you auction them as antiques, you might not even be able to pass the auction house.

"Wenhua is also a kind of antique, but the things in it are not very valuable..."

Fang Yi thought of the bracelet left by his master, which was also considered a cultural relics, but his agarwood bracelet was at least 200,000 yuan at the auction, and it was not uncommon to buy more than one million yuan.

Because that string of agarwood can be found in the Qing court inspection records. In other words, it is very likely that the things Emperor Kangxi played with back then were given historical significance on the basis of cultural relics, and its value is naturally far from comparable to the gems in front of him.

Of course, if anyone can identify that this pile of gems was used to be the toys of Empress Dowager Cixi, his value will immediately double. However, no one is a fool. Compared with recorded objects, gem collections are difficult to verify.

Moreover, many of the things that were difficult to mine in the past, such as the southern red and green pine and the Baltic beeswax, are now flowing into the market on a large scale, so the value of circulation is not very high. Perhaps their prices may not rise until a few years later.

"Isn't it just a bunch of broken stones? It's not diamonds, the foreigners don't recognize it..."

Listening to the conversation between Fang Yi and Sanpao, Peng Bin curled his lips and picked up a gold chain. There was a ruby ​​pendant on the gold chain. The ruby ​​inlaid on it was about the same size as the meteorite. Peng Bin directly picked it off with his hands.

"Hey, brother, what are you doing?"

Seeing Peng Bin's actions, Fang Yi's mouth twitched. He could see that the inlaying process of the pendant was very exquisite. The two buckles inside could be removed and replaced, but Peng Bin's rough movement almost destroyed the two buckles.

"Isn't it just right to put that meteorite in..."

Peng Bin smiled, picked up the meteorite in Fang Yi's palm and put it into the pendant. Fang Yi quickly grabbed the pendant and said, "Brother, this thing can be disassembled. If you put it on like that, the meteorite will fall out..."

As he spoke, Fang Yi twisted an inconspicuous place on the pendant with his little fingernails. The two horizontal snaps popped out with Fang Yi's movements. After taking the meteorite iron into the pendant, the snaps automatically retracted and wrapped the meteorite iron tightly in the pendant.

"The craftsmanship of the past is really unspeakable..."

Looking at the meteorite inlaid in the pendant, Fang Yi couldn't help but sigh. It would be difficult to restore this craft with modern processing technology. In those days, these were all handicrafts by craftsmen, which shows the exquisite production craftsmanship that year.

"Hehe, it's just right, brother, thank you..." Fang Yi put the necklace of the meteorite pendant around his neck. The necklace was not very thick and it was not very conspicuous when hung around his neck. Fang Yi was very satisfied.

"Why are you polite with your brother? But this thing can still be played like this?" Looking at Fang Yi's actions, Peng Bin was stunned. He didn't expect that a small pendant would have so many mystery.

"Hmm? Fang Yi, let's talk about it later..."

While Peng Bin was talking, a walkie-talkie on his waist suddenly rang. Peng Bin knew that this was an urgent matter within the family to find him, because the scope of this walkie-talkie could only cover the Peng family town, and it was a special communication tool for several elders to communicate with each other. ——
