This jade pendant in the hand of the Supreme Treasure can be called the best of the dragon-shaped jade pendants of the Chu Kingdom. This dragon-shaped jade pendant is supposed to be one of the jade assemblages composed of multiple jade objects hanging from the body. Judging from the distribution of the holes of the dragon-shaped jade pendant, it seems that it should be in the middle of the upper and lower jade ornaments. The production of Chu jade is known for its ingenious conception, and the shape of the jade pendant is flexibly treated according to its position in the group of jade pendants, reflecting the artistic style of Chu jade craftsmanship. During the Warring States period, there were hundreds of schools of thought contending with each other, and art flourished, and at the same time, the iron smelting industry was also very developed, and people began to use iron tools in large quantities, all of which created cultural and technical conditions for the vigorous development of the jade carving industry.

Lao Chen took the jade pendant of the Supreme Treasure and said: "The jade pig dragon that used jade to make the shape of a dragon first appeared in the Hongshan culture period about 6,000 years ago. In the early days, the jade dragon was relatively clumsy in terms of artistic expression, and gradually became free and easy in the Spring and Autumn Period. A large number of dragon-shaped jade pendants began to appear in the late Spring and Autumn Period, reaching their heyday during the Warring States Period, becoming one of the most representative jade artifacts of this period. The Chu people have a tradition of respecting the dragon, so the dragon-shaped jade pendant of the Chu style is the most distinctive, and this dragon-shaped jade pendant can be called the boutique of the dragon-shaped jade pendant of the late Warring States period of the Chu State. The flaky jade dragon looks both vivid and atmospheric, looking back into the distance, the dragon is also carved with cloud patterns, so that this dragon adds a fairy spirit. Even the tail of the dragon is lifelike. What's more important is that this jade artifact that has gone through thousands of years can be preserved so well, it is really unprecedented, I don't know how your friend preserved it? ”

Isn't this nonsense? The Supreme Treasure was brought out of the palace of Southern Chu, and there was no physical destruction of this jade pendant in the middle. If it weren't for Lao Chen's knowledge, it is estimated that he would have thought that this jade pendant was a high imitation, and the color was too good.

Supreme Treasure explained: "Old Mr. Chen, I don't know this very well, maybe this friend of mine and their ancestors valued this jade pendant very much, so they are very careful to preserve this jade pendant." According to him, his ancestors also had contact with the royal family of the Chu State, so this jade pendant was indeed from the palace of the Chu State. This time, he also happened to have an urgent need for money, so he asked us to bring it to the United States to find someone who knows how to sell it. If you like it, Mr. Chen, you can take it! ”

"Well, it turned out that it was another master who was in urgent need of money to be willing to give such a valuable jade pendant. According to my speculation from this jade pendant, the owner of this dragon-shaped jade pendant is noble, and it is not like it was given by the royal family as your friend said, but it itself is worn by the royal family such as the prince. Dare to ask Big Fish Little Brother where is this friend of yours from? ”

Supreme Treasure thought about it, he made his fortune in Wuyue, so let's say it is the Wuyue region!

As a result, Lao Chen nodded after hearing this and said: "That's right, in the twenty-second year of King Chu Kaolie, the Chu State moved its capital to Shouchun, and the Jianghan Chu culture and the Huaiyi indigenous culture were further integrated, forming the Jianghuai Chu culture centered on Shouchun, which has become a major branch of Chu culture and an important part of traditional Chinese culture. There are people in that area who have this rare treasure in their hands, and it is also justified. Tell me, how much money does your friend need, I'll give him all the money! ”

Supreme Treasure was stunned when he heard this, he had never heard of such a price. It's not to bid first but to let Supreme Treasure directly report how much money it costs, it seems that this old Chen is "inhumane"!

Supreme Treasure hesitated and didn't know how to make a price, and Uncle Jian fanned the flames on the side and said: "Young man, drive as high as possible, it seems that this old man really likes this jade pendant in your hand." It's rare for me to hear him say something like today, your jade pendant is indeed a rare treasure and even I want to take it to collect, but I know that he likes jade more than me, so let it be for him! ”

"Hey, Uncle Jian, don't kick in here, this jade pendant is this little brother you introduced to me, and the things are also pawned by me, you can't snatch love with a knife!" What else is called driving high, you are trying to make me bleed, the tiger-shaped jade pendant I just bought a while ago cost three million, and I am really a little nervous at hand! Why don't you sponsor me first? ”

"You're crying with me again, these three million are not a matter of minutes for you, don't think I don't know that you sold the dragon and phoenix and Tian Yupei in the Qing Jiaqing period to the Mi Guoyan before for a full five thousand ......"

"Shhh, Uncle Jian was told, isn't it 5,000 yuan? What's the fuss about, okay, okay, friends, you guys just go to a high place, don't give me Chen someone any face, anyway, I like this dragon-shaped jade pendant tightly, and it's worth it no matter how much you spend. Lao Chen gritted his teeth and said.

"Lao Chen, this is a priceless treasure, you can buy it with money, who is making it and you don't have any points in your heart? You're welcome, two children, can you make a price? Uncle Jian said to Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu.

The Supreme Treasure itself does not know much about the antiques, and if you want to talk about the value of this jade pendant in Nanchu, it is estimated that it is worth a few thousand taels of silver, but if this value is compared in modern times, I don't know how to convert it, so he has no bottom in his heart. And after all, he only met Lao Chen after dragging Uncle Jian's relationship, Lao Chen was so frank with them and let them offer a price directly, originally wanted to open his mouth, but now that he said this, it would be a little unkind for them to raise the price again, so he pushed Lu Xiaoyu.

"Why don't you speak, I think it's up to you to decide this matter, didn't you find it under the bed of Emperor Nanchu? So it's up to you. Supreme Treasure whispered in Lu Xiaoyu's ear.

But Lu Xiaoyu is not a modern person after all, he doesn't understand the concept of modern money, and when he was here before, he spent money lavishly, so he stretched out three fingers, "Then three......"

"Thirty million? Good...... 30 million is 30 million, who told me that I like this jade, I am willing to spend this money! After speaking, he didn't bargain with Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu, he directly took out a check, brushed it a few times on it, and handed it to Lu Xiaoyu, "The young man saw it clearly, here is a check for 30 million, no password is required, you can change it at the bank." ”

"I asked you to make a price, but I didn't let you open it so hard, it's almost enough to open three million, why did you still open a thirty million." Supreme Treasure complained.

Lu Xiaoyu said aggrievedly: "Big brother is wronged, I just wanted to say that the jade pendant he bought before was three million, then we can sell it for three million, who knew that he would give me 30 million without asking!" ”
