Chapter 2393 Even if It Costs 100 Million, We Have to Get It
Su Ming could roughly tell from the look on the gambling king's face that the gambling king was somewhat knowledgeable.
People who really understood antiques could actually roughly tell that when they looked at something, they would never judge it easily, but would look at it very seriously.
And his previous judgment on the jade ring could also prove that he was indeed quite good.
In this way, Su Ming would save a lot of trouble, and there was no need to explain. Let the gambling king take a look first. If he had some skills, he should be able to see that this was not an ordinary thing.
After the gambling king looked at it for a while, he became more and more shocked. He probably saw that this thing was not ordinary. Judging from the quality, it must have been quite old. If this was true, it would be quite extraordinary.
For a while, the gambling king looked solemn and said directly: "Go quickly, bring me a pair of fiber gloves and a magnifying glass, and invite Mr. Feng to me by the way."
Su Ming was more certain that the gambling king was still okay. He was not as casual as Su Ming and touched the thing with his hands, proving that he still had the most basic common sense.
After a while, the servants around him helped the gambling king to bring the things over, but looking at the gambling king's appearance, he was obviously unsure.
After watching for a while, he didn't dare to make a judgment easily, so he had to continue to ask: "Where is Mr. Feng, hasn't he arrived yet?"
Su Ming estimated that the Mr. Feng he was talking about should be an expert or something. The gambling king was unsure in this situation, and he planned to ask him to come over to confirm it, which shows how serious the gambling king was this time.
The servant said: "I'm already urging it. It will probably arrive soon. Don't worry."
While waiting, the gambling king was still constantly observing the small white porcelain bowl that Su Ming sent out, but the gambling king's expression looked very cautious.
It seemed that he was holding a peerless treasure in his hand, for fear of breaking it.
After a while, an old man with gray hair came over. This person wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looked like he had an ancient aura. It can be felt that this person is probably engaged in the antique business.
"Mr. He, did you receive something for your birthday today? You called me here in such a hurry." Mr. Feng came over and joked.
The gambling king seemed to be familiar with this person.
It is estimated that the two of them had more contact in private. The gambling king said, "I did see something that I am not sure about. Please come and give me a look, Mr. Feng."
"It is this small white jade bowl." The gambling king said.
And Mr. Feng also looked very professional. He put on gloves and looked at it carefully. However, the more he looked, the more frightened he was. His reaction was similar to that of the gambling king just now.
However, this guy is obviously much more skilled. He specializes in this field, and his professional knowledge is naturally not comparable to that of an outsider.
After looking at it for a while, he took off his magnifying glass and said, "What a good thing, Gambling King. This is definitely a good thing. Who gave it to me? It's too precious."
When the Gambling King heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "Mr. Feng, if you say so, is this thing real?"
"More than real, it couldn't be more real."
Mr. Feng said, "The scientific name of this white jade bowl should be called white jade lotus petal pattern bowl. If you look carefully, you will find that the bowl is engraved with a circle of lotus petals all around it."
Everyone looked at it and found that it was really the case. Everyone could see it at first, but they didn't think about it in this way. After listening, they realized it.
"The jade is white, with streaks and white fluff spots, and brown stains in some parts. The bowl wall is relatively straight and slightly thick, with a shallow relief of three-fold lotus petals on the surface, and parallel lines engraved on the surface of the lotus petals to show the veins."
Mr. Feng said: "Don't think this bowl doesn't look so exquisite. In fact, it was made in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, it was already the top level of craftsmanship. It was made purely by hand, and its value can be imagined."
"This bowl is made of exquisite materials, finely polished, simple in shape, and small in size. It is one of the few jade containers in the Tang Dynasty." Mr. Feng continued to praise, obviously praising it.
Seeing such a good thing is simply a supreme enjoyment for a person who loves antiques. Even if it is not his thing, it is a heartfelt enjoyment.
He Qianye realized how valuable this thing Su Ming helped him take out was. Listening to Mr. Feng's constant praise, basically everyone could hear that this thing is probably worth a lot of money.
For a while, the people present did not dare to despise it. It turned out that their initial contempt was slapped in the face. They didn't expect it to be a good thing.
The eldest son of the gambling king felt a little jealous for a moment, so he muttered: "It's just a bowl, why are you talking so much about it? How much can it be worth? Is it as valuable as my white jade ring?"
"Damn it——"
Su Ming wanted to slap this guy, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he gave him a white jade ring. It sounded very painful. This guy was too weird.
"Don't talk nonsense. The value of this thing is beyond your imagination."
Mr. Feng said, "This is something from the Tang Dynasty. It's thousands of years old. If it can be passed down to the present, anyone with a little bit of brains will know that it must be worth a lot of money."
"And this white jade lotus petal bowl has a very high level of craftsmanship. Basically, it is used by the court."
"Today, as far as I know, there is only one white jade lotus petal bowl handed down from generation to generation in the Palace Museum in the mainland. It is treasured there. This bowl is equivalent to one of the few handed down treasures."
He Qianye was stunned for a moment. He was also frightened when he heard Mr. Feng's exaggeration. He asked, "Mr. Feng, how much does this bowl cost?"
"It's really hard to say, because this kind of thing is priced but not sold. It can't be described as a market. If you find one you like, you may buy it for tens of millions without hesitation. The price is at least more than 50 million."
Mr. Feng continued, "If you don't believe it, ask the gambling king. He should like these things very much."
"This kind of good thing, let alone 50 million, even if it is 100 million, I will buy it immediately. It is completely hard to find." The gambling king said.
