Chapter 2052 There Is a Problem

In fact, Su Ming had already realized it without Li Yuanshuang's reminder. Li Yuanshuang probably felt uneasy, so she just found a random reason and called Su Ming over to give him a few words of advice.

Su Ming said directly: "Don't worry, I didn't remember it for a moment, but now I remember it."

"If you have any vegetables, let me wash them for you. Otherwise, Professor Li would probably be suspicious if you went back so early." Su Ming said a few words with a smile, and then picked up a basket of freshly picked spinach. , I went to the sink and washed myself.

"By the way, after Director Zhang died, it caused a stir in Ningcheng, but no one suspected me. It is said that the police said that Director Zhang committed suicide. The limelight has almost passed in the past two days." When Su Ming was washing vegetables, Li Yuanshuang thought of this and said something to Su Ming.

Su Ming nodded, as long as nothing happened. It is estimated that this matter has been over and there will be no follow-up, and Su Ming doesn't have to worry too much about Li Yuanshuang.

As for the police, they knew without thinking that it was impossible to trace this matter to Li Yuanshuang, and without even looking at who Li Yuanshuang's brother was, no one would dare to trace it casually.

After pretending to be in the kitchen for a while, Su Ming walked out directly and chatted with Professor Li for a while. Seeing that the ingredients were still being prepared in the kitchen, it would probably take a while before it was time to eat.

Just listen to Professor Li say: "By the way, Su Ming, I just thought of something. Just a few days ago, I found a treasure. I heard that you also have research on antiques, so I will show it to you."

"Oh, I found something good, bring it over and show it to me." After hearing this, Su Ming became interested instantly.

It seems that he hasn't touched antiques for a long time. Firstly, he has no time, and secondly, Su Ming usually has relatively few access to them.

Professor Li was obviously very interested. Li Yuanshuang was not interested in these things at all, so he couldn't find anyone to share his joy at home.

You must know that if you find an antique, you will actually feel a sense of accomplishment, and you can't wait to share it with others. When you hear others praising you for your taste and greatness, you will feel even happier.

"That's it, look at it."

After a while, Professor Li took out a small object from his inner room and placed it in front of Su Ming.

Su Ming lowered his head and glanced several times, but what puzzled Su Ming was that he didn't quite know what this thing was. It looked quite small and exquisite, with a certain sense of simplicity. At the same time, it looked white all over. Qingzhong It's white, it should be a piece of jade.

But Su Ming didn't quite understand what this shape was. Could it be a piece of jade carved like this?

So Su Ming said, "Professor Li, what kind of jade is this? It looks quite unique and beautiful."

"You don't even know this? This is a snuff bottle." Professor Li said immediately, and then looked at Su Ming in surprise. He had heard that Su Ming had some research on antiques. Why don't you even know this?

Su Ming was a little embarrassed now. He said that he had research on antiques and so on. To put it bluntly, it was because of his skills. Without the help of skills, Su Ming would have been completely clueless. I had never seen snuff bottles like this before. Something.

However, Su Ming had heard of snuff bottles, but only for a while, and didn't think about it, and there were relatively few people talking about this kind of thing.

Generally speaking, when it comes to antiques, there are two general directions: either porcelain, or various calligraphy and paintings.

Su Ming could only say awkwardly: "I haven't really studied this thing much, so I didn't think of it just now."

After hearing this, Professor Li didn't find it very strange, because snuff bottles are considered antiques, but in the antique market,

They are very rare. It is only in the past two years that some boring people have started to speculate in snuff bottles. The price in the entire market has been raised many times. Now this thing has become a hot commodity.

After all, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find real antiques these days. If you can find them and they are in good condition, no matter what it is, even if it is a dirty spittoon, many people will probably want to buy it.

Professor Li then said: "It's normal that you don't understand. This stuff is relatively unorthodox, and it only started in the Qing Dynasty. There aren't too many people, and few people know about it."

The so-called snuff bottle is to put some snuff paste inside, and then people can put the bottle to their nose to inhale. The enjoyment is similar to smoking cigarettes now.

Although this method sounds a bit silly now, it was very popular in the Qing Dynasty. Many princes, ministers and ordinary people liked to use this thing, which made it very popular at the time.

Of course, this thing only became popular back then. After the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, no one used this thing anymore. The snuff bottles that were handed down gradually became cultural relics and antiques and were collected and preserved.

It's just that the Qing Dynasty was not that long ago, just a few hundred years ago. Many of the snuff bottles that have been handed down are still well preserved.

Of course, snuff bottles are also divided into grades. The main thing is to see what kind of material they are made of. If they are used by ordinary people, they are naturally made of ordinary materials. Today, they are not too expensive. At most, they are not expensive. It’s just a cultural relic that’s hundreds of years old.

But Professor Li’s one is different. It is made of jade. At that time, those who could use jade to make such things must be rich princes and ministers, so this thing is called The value is different. This should be considered a relatively high-end snuff bottle.

So Su Ming smiled and said, "Professor Li, this snuff bottle of yours seems to be of pretty good quality."

"Of course, I tell you, I bought this at a big price, and it was from the Qianlong period. It is said to have been used by a certain prince. Do you think it can be of low quality? This is a blue and white jade snuff bottle. I can I have studied it." Professor Li said, seeming a little proud.

Su Ming used Han Bing's E skill to take a look. It didn't matter, but Su Ming was completely stunned. There was something wrong with this thing.
