    Zheng Zongxian saw that these three jade articles were all good, and the stall owner also wanted to repay his kindness, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

    However, as a case handler, Zheng Zongxian was of course still vigilant, so he also noticed Meng Zitao's hint.

    As a close disciple of Zheng Anzhi, Meng Zitao was sent to Yingdu. He must have two brushes. Of course, Zheng Zongxian chose to believe Meng Zitao, so he politely refused.

    The stall owner probably has the kind of personality that is easy to get into trouble. When he saw that no one wanted it, he looked a little anxious and said, "If you feel dissatisfied with these three pieces of jade, then take a look at these two pieces!"

    With that said, the stall owner put the three pieces of jade into his pocket and took out the remaining two pieces of jade.

    Meng Zitao was originally ready to refuse, but when he saw what the stall owner was holding, he felt something extraordinary, so he quickly used his powers, only to find that these two jade articles actually belonged to the third generation.

    In the field of ancient jade, the old three dynasties refer to jade from the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. In addition, the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty are mentioned more often, which are the three periods that ordinary people call Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong.

    When he found out that it was a jade from the third generation, and its value was not low, Meng Zitao started to wonder, was this not a scam, or was the other party just trying to sugar-coat it?

    If it is the former possibility, then what happened to the three jade articles just now?  If it was the latter, the stall owner must have made a wrong calculation. For Meng Zitao, he would eat the sugar coating and hit the cannonball back.

    Meng Zitao thought for a moment, then decided to take a look first and then said, "Brother, can you show us these two pieces of jade. In addition, you don't have to be so polite. We can do whatever we want."

    Seeing that Meng Zitao was interested, the stall owner happily put the bed sheet on the ground and put the two jade articles on it. As for what Meng Zitao said next, he selectively ignored it.

    Meng Zitao picked up one of the jade wares. The jade was made of sapphire, with brown tinge in parts. The shape of the jade was flaky. The form and decoration on both sides were the same. Both sides were carved with a composite pendant of one person and two dragons.

    The human head has clear facial features, viewed from the side, with almond-shaped eyes, triangular nose, and swirl-shaped ears carved with negative lines.  One dragon is decorated on the back and top of a person's head, with its head hanging downward, its mouth open and round eyes, cloud-shaped ears, and its tail curled up; the other dragon is decorated on the chest and abdomen of a person, with its mouth open and tongue out, and its tail end curled into a hook shape, which doubles as a dragon.  Human body and limbs.  There is a round hole at the tail end of the dragon near the human head, which can be used to fasten the necklace.

    Compared with the jade articles of the Zhou Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, the number of jade articles with elephants is relatively reduced. The so-called monsters and strange birds that were more common in the Yin and Shang Dynasties have mostly disappeared in the Western Zhou Dynasty.  However, types such as jade deer and jade tiger have not only increased in number, but also become more exquisitely crafted. There are also new types of artifacts such as composite or integrated human artifacts.  As independent shapes, dragons and phoenixes are no longer common. They are more often used as decorations and carved on jade objects of other shapes.

    The human-dragon composite jade article that Meng Zitao is holding now is the most common decoration on jade pendants and an important worship object in the Western Zhou Dynasty.  This type of jade is a new composite form after the patterns of gods and beasts in Liangzhu culture, and has distinctive characteristics of the times.

    The other piece is a jade tiger, which is also a piece of jade in the shape of a sheet. It uses local jade, showing red Qin and Huang Qin. The tiger has a low mouth shape, slightly erect legs, and a rolled up tail with a small section at the end.  It is shaped like a handle, with a pair of drilled holes at the mouth; the surface of the vessel is engraved with the word "chen" in negative lines, and the ears, front and rear feet are decorated with moir¨¦ patterns.  The structure of the work is simple and belongs to the typical Shang Dynasty jade carving style.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao had finished reading, the stall owner patted his chest and promised: "I can guarantee that these two pieces of jade belong to the third generation. If they are wrong, I will double the compensation to you!"

    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "It seems that the eldest brother is very knowledgeable about the jade articles of the third generation."

    "It's just a little research." The stall owner chuckled: "How are you satisfied with these two pieces of jade? If you think it is okay, I will give you 50,000."

    Meng Zitao looked at Zheng Zongxian, who smiled and said, "I'm not very interested in the jade from the third generation."

    Seeing Zheng Zongxian¡¯s attitude, Meng Zitao became rude and said to the stall owner: ¡°If I take advantage of this, I will feel uneasy.¡±

    The value of these two pieces of jade is about 120,000 yuan. If Meng Zitao had purchased it from the stall owner as a customer, he would not have bought it at a price of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan or even a lower price, let alone 50,000 yuan.  No guilt, but if the other party deliberately missed something for him to pick up, Meng Zitao would not be so at ease.

    Of course, if the other party is a liar, Meng Zitao will definitely not be soft-hearted, but judging from the performance of the stall owner, he does not look like a liar. As for the three jade articles, it may be that the stall owner took a look at it, although this matter is somewhat  Coincidence, but notIt has been commonly seen in the beginning of the Dynasty, but it is especially obvious in the Western Zhou Dynasty"

    Meng Zitao analyzed the beauty in his hand carefully. The more Bai Jiantong listened, the darker his face became, and in the end, he only felt bitter.

    After Bai Jiantong listened to Meng Zitao's analysis of the last two jade articles, his expression became even more depressed, and finally he sighed: "It seems that the price of this black cat is really hard to get. At least there are two genuine pieces, so they are guaranteed."  Ben, otherwise, we will lose money this time."

    When he said this, he thought that he had promised Meng Zitao just now, and now he felt blushing just thinking about it.

    ¡°After all, it was Bai Jiantong who got the eye shot. Meng Zitao and the others didn¡¯t ask for any details, but from what Bai Jiantong said, we could still guess that he must have taken a small advantage and almost suffered a big loss.

    After chatting for a while, Zheng Zongxian¡¯s cell phone rang. It was his friend who called to ask where they were.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao and the others had something to do, Bai Jiantong said goodbye. Before he left, Meng Zitao handed him his business card and said he could contact him if he had anything to do.

    Zheng Zongxian¡¯s friend¡¯s name is Tian Yinan. It is said that he is the eldest in the family, so he was named this. He is a middle-aged man with a short haircut, tall and fat, and is very tall and thick.  Meng Zitao was really under some pressure standing with him.

    Zheng Zong first introduced the two parties and explained the tasks to Tian Yinan.

    "Do you remember clearly?"

    Tian Yinan¡¯s voice is also quite manly, and it sounds rough. He smiled and said: "Nonsense, can I forget such a small thing?"

    Zheng Zongxian waved his hand: "Okay, you go ahead, I'll go and settle the black cat issue first."

    Tian Yinan was stunned when he heard this: "Is this guy Black Cat coming to Yingdu again?"

    ¡°I¡¯ll talk to you about this later.¡± With that said, Zheng Zong ran towards his car.

    "When will this guy change his impatience?" Tian Yinan muttered, and smiled at Meng Zitao: "Teacher Meng, let's go then"

    The three of them walked for more than ten minutes and arrived at an antique store. The store was very small. Meng Zitao looked into the store from the door and felt that it might be a bit crowded when the three of them entered.

    Walking into the store, Meng Zitao looked around the store as usual. He saw that behind the counter of the store, there was a mountain of messy old goods. It felt very messy and the things didn't look very good.  There wasn't even much room to set foot.

    If it were normal times, Meng Zitao would not be interested in selling things in a place like this.

    The owner was an old man in his fifties. When Meng Zitao and the others came in, he was holding a newspaper and reading it with relish.

    "Shopkeeper Wei, we have business!" Tian Yinan shouted at the top of his voice.

    Wei Hongliang raised his head: "Boss Tian, ??please stop bragging. Apart from collecting some gadgets, how did you come back to my place and have any big business?"

    Tian Yinan said with some exaggeration: "Shopkeeper Wei, the real owner today is not me, it's him! Let me tell you, I just patted my chest and promised that I have to bring out some bright and good things today, otherwise you won't  I don¡¯t have face either.¡±

    Wei Hongliang smiled and shook his head: "That's your guarantee, I don't have one."

    Tian Yinan said quickly: "Hey, Shopkeeper Wei, at this critical moment, you can't let go, otherwise I will bleed heavily today."

    Wei Hongliang smiled and said, "That has nothing to do with me."

    Tian Yinan said: "Hey, I can finally see your true face today."

    After a few jokes, Tian Yinan introduced both parties, and Wei Hongliang asked: "Boss Meng, I wonder which category of objects you like?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "As long as the thing is good, it is fine. Of course, porcelain is best."

    Wei Hongliang nodded and said: "Porcelain, right? OK, you guys sit down for a while and I'll be back soon."

    Meng Zitao pointed to the pile of old goods behind the counter and asked, "Can I take a look at these first?"

    "Of course it's no problem, just take a look" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
