    Meng Zitao first picked up the gold bars and looked at them. They were all twelve gold bars from the Central Mint of the Republic of China. The current market value was about two hundred thousand. There were five identical gold bars in the box, worth more than one million.

    After putting the gold bar back, he took the bronze mirror into his hand and looked at it.

    This is a typical bronze mirror from the Southern Song Dynasty. The copper quality is average, but the workmanship and other aspects of the bronze mirror are quite exquisite. It should be from the hands of skilled craftsmen, and it should not be used by ordinary people at that time.

    You may find it strange that since ordinary people cannot use it, why are bronze mirrors ordinary?

    In fact, the production management of copperware during the Song, Liao and Jin Dynasties was very strict. Copper was mainly used to cast currency, while the production of copper products such as bronze mirrors and Buddha statues was subject to certain restrictions.  For example, if the cross-border circulation of bronze mirrors is restricted, the production of bronze mirrors must be inspected and registered by the local management agency, and the edges must be engraved with inscriptions certified by local officials and craftsmen before they are allowed to be sold in the restricted area. Therefore, bronze mirrors in this period  Many have engraved edges.

    Moreover, the material of cast bronze mirrors in the Song Dynasty has undergone significant changes. Its chemical composition has evolved from the high-tin bronze in the Han and Tang Dynasties to high-lead bronze, that is, the tin content has decreased, and the lead and zinc content have increased. Therefore, most of the bronze mirrors in the Song Dynasty are yellow.  The texture of copper is yellow with red flashes. It is thin and soft, with increased toughness and bending. It is in sharp contrast to the thick and heavy bronze mirrors of the Han and Tang Dynasties, which are more fragile than bending and fragile.

    Therefore, it is a very normal situation that the copper quality of this bronze mirror is not good.

    As far as the current situation is concerned, the production of Song mirrors that have been handed down and unearthed are often not very sophisticated, and high-quality and collectible bronze mirrors are quite rare. This is why not many Song mirrors are sold at high prices in the auction market.

    In short, bronze mirrors like the one in Meng Zitao's hand are quite rare, and the user must not be an ordinary person.  This reminded Meng Zitao of whether the wizard's tomb might have anything to do with the owner of the tomb.

    Meng Zitao wanted to ask questions, but immediately gave up the idea, because if asked alone, it would easily arouse the third master's suspicion.

    So, he put the bronze mirror back and looked at other things in the box. The rest were artifacts related to Hongshan culture, among which a jade pig dragon was the most precious.

    Seeing this jade pig dragon, Meng Zitao began to feel angry again. The reason why he hated tomb robbers was not only because they would spread cultural relics abroad, but also because they were too violent to retrieve the objects. A jade pig dragon like this appeared.  , often means the damage of some ordinary cultural relics, which are the cultural heritage passed down by the Chinese nation.

    After inspecting everything in the box, Meng Zitao estimated that except for the bronze mirror, the value of the other items should be around five million.

    To be honest, this five million is already a lot for other people, but it is nothing to Meng Zitao. For this reason, it is impossible for him to join these tomb robbers, but he must be the one for this bronze mirror.  Gotta take it down.

    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that Pan Laowu is very good, just these few things?¡± Meng Zitao sneered.

    ¡°What a big appetite!¡±

    The third master sneered in his heart, but for him, he was afraid that Meng Zitao was a passionate young man. As long as he ate his food, he would have a way to double his profits in the future.

    The third master pretended to smile bitterly and said, "Mr. Meng, I can make the decision on these. If there are any more, I have to ask the fifth master. Do you think we should call him over?"

    "You can call me." Meng Zitao waved his hand. He also wanted to see who this Pan Laowu was.

    The third master dialed Pan Laowu's number in front of Meng Zitao. It took half a minute before the other party picked up the phone, and there was also the sound of rubbing numbness on the phone.

    Meng Zitao was a little speechless, okay, the auction is being organized here, and you are still playing mahjong over there, and you don't take the auction here seriously at all.

    In fact, the third master was also a little angry, but he was quite helpless when he thought about Pan Laowu's character. Why did Pan Laowu fight back? It was not because he was addicted to gambling. Only if he lost more, he and others would gain.  Much.

    ¡°But Pan Laowu¡¯s addiction to gambling also delayed things a lot. Like before, there were several things that happened because he refused to get out of the poker game. He didn¡¯t succeed and even suffered losses.  So it's quite a paradox.

    "Third brother, haven't we already taken care of things above? Why is there anything else?"

    "Fifth Master, there are some things I want you to decide on now. How about you come over here?"

    "What's up?"

    "Mr. Meng is here and wants to see you."

    "Which Mr. Meng?"

    The third master briefly introduced Meng Zitao. Pan Laowu was silent for a moment, and then he suddenly cursed: "Asshole, how dare you betrayHelp him deal with the local goods, but I have never visited the ancient tomb once. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask San Ye and the others.  "

    "Although I often did some sneaky things in the past, I was aware of the serious consequences. For example, when people in the village reported me for fighting, I never retaliated afterward. I also came up with 100,000 yuan to help the village build roads.  You can ask about these."

    Qi Leizi patted his chest and said that he was very capable and Meng Zitao could use him with confidence.

    Is Qi Lezi as good as he says?  Meng Zitao definitely didn't believe it, but if Qi Lezi had never done any serious evil, he wouldn't be unable to use him.

    For example, Xiao Likai wanted to sell those high-end imitations to foreigners, but with his current status, he would definitely not be able to do it in person. Qi Lezi was a better candidate.  In addition, there are some matters that he cannot handle personally, which can also be left to Qi Lezi to handle.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
