    Meng Zitao touched Li Xianle, pursed his lips to the man, and said in a low voice: "I think we'd better go."

    Li Xianle also knew that person and said in shock: "Is this Cui Zhu? How come this guy is here and actually becomes an expert?"

    Meng Zitao shook his head: "Who knows, but I think it's better not to participate in this kind of appraisal meeting. No one will recognize the certificate issued."

    Li Xianle said: "It's okay. What Cui Zhu appraised was miscellaneous. The person who appraised the porcelain was Qu Yingwei. He is still somewhat famous in appraising Jiangnan porcelain."

    Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that he won't do what you want?"

    "Hey, he's already in cahoots with Cui Zhu. Do you think he won't let me get what I want?"

    Li Xianle seemed very confident. In this case, Meng Zitao would not say anything more.  Since there were quite a few people appraising in front of them, the two of them found a seat first, ordered a pot of tea and drank while chatting.

    The speed of on-site treasure appraisal is not slow, but there are too many people who can't stand the treasure appraisal, so it will probably take a while for Li Xianle's turn.

    In the process, Meng Zitao discovered that even if they were committing fraud, those experts actually divided people into different grades. When they met some people who were not willing to pay, they would directly say that the things were fakes, while some people who had the idea of ????paying money,  They will tell him that the items are genuine and can issue him an appraisal certificate and so on.

    Of course, in view of the fact that there are many fakes and few real ones in the antique market, these people only dare to describe a small number of fakes as genuine. Otherwise, no matter how stupid the collectors who come to appraise them are, they will find something wrong with them.

    In addition, what surprised Meng Zitao was that Cui Zhu was actually quite popular here (there were two experts in identifying miscellaneous items), which made Meng Zitao a little confused.

    So, Meng Zitao asked a Tibetan friend standing next to them, who came to appraise it, to sit down and ask about it. After listening to this person's introduction, he understood what was going on.

    It turns out that all this is because Cui Zhuneng is eloquent, and what he says is serious. In addition, he has the title of expert on his head. Of course, people who don¡¯t know the truth prefer to come to him for identification.

    ¡°Brother, can you show me this Buddha statue of yours?¡±

    After listening to the other party¡¯s explanation, Meng Zitao turned his attention to the things in this collector¡¯s hands. In fact, the reason why he chose this person was precisely because of this person¡¯s collection.

    "Of course that's no problem." The Tibetan friend immediately agreed with a smile.

    Generally speaking, in occasions like treasure appraisal activities, when you meet peers who like the same artifacts, most of them will be very enthusiastic.  In addition to being able to communicate with each other, it also has some meaning of showing off. Having fun alone is not as good as having fun with everyone.

    Meng Zitao took the Buddha statue in his hand, looked at it carefully, and nodded secretly, this is indeed a good thing.

    This is a statue of Sakyamuni, made entirely of red material.

    Red material is a type of material utensil, and the so-called material utensil is actually a vessel or handicraft made of pigmented glass raw material.

    Material utensils were first introduced to my country from the Western Regions. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the production of utensils in the Boshan area of ??Shandong Province was already very prosperous, and later spread to the capital.

    By the 35th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, the capital began to produce utensils for the imperial palace, and the first large-scale colored glaze factory appeared, which was loved by members of the royal family.

    The varieties produced include daily necessities, decorations and jewelry, etc., with rich shapes and various forms, especially the carvings of utensils that combine practicality and decoration, which are extremely exquisitely made. The works involve all aspects of palace life.

    The red Buddha statue in Meng Zitao's hand is one of them. Although it is small, it is heavy on the hand, bright red in color and transparent in texture.

    The Buddha statue has a kind face, wearing a robe, with hands hanging naturally and legs crossed. The overall shape is dignified and grand, with exquisite carving and a royal atmosphere. It is not for ordinary people to use.

    In addition, there is gilt on the body of the vessel, but a lot of it has fallen off due to preservation problems. This will affect the value of this object to some extent.

    Of course, even so, this Buddha statue is still valuable. Meng Zitao really doesn't understand why this person would bring such a valuable thing here for appraisal.

    After Meng Zitao finished appreciating it, the Tibetan friend asked: "Little brother, isn't this Buddha statue of mine good?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and nodded: "Yes, it is a rare masterpiece."

    Hearing what Meng Zitao said, the Tibetan friend also grinned and excitedly told the story of the origin of this Buddha statue.

    After listening to his story, MengTaste, that's because this Buddha statue has been worshiped for a long time.  The musty smell should be the smell of being buried underground. As for why good Buddha statues are buried underground, there are many reasons. Not to mention the distant ones, you can understand it if you recall the history of decades ago.

    "Is that so?" The Tibetan friend shook his head, looking very regretful.

    Meng Zitao thought for a while and asked, "Brother, what are you going to do with this Buddha statue?"

    "What else can I do? Just leave it alone." At this point, he came back to his senses and said, "What's the matter, are you interested in this Buddha statue?"

    "Yes, I still had the same idea as before." Meng Zitao nodded naturally and told the truth. He didn't want to be thought that he was taking advantage of others.

    "Wait a minute" An idea flashed in Meng Zitao's mind, and he suddenly had an idea. Could it be that Cui Zhu said this deliberately so that he could buy it at a low price?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
