Chapter 249 I bought this tomb!
"The tomb here is located near the top of the mountain. Neither the left nor the right is close to the water. From a Feng Shui perspective, this is extremely taboo, which means that future generations will not be able to get along well."
"People in ancient times were very superstitious, especially dignitaries. They would ask Feng Shui masters to check the treasure land and make burial preparations in advance."
"The mausoleum in front of us has extremely bad feng shui and is a dead end."
"So I judge that the tomb owner probably offended some people during his lifetime and chose the burial place in a hurry without having time to ask a Feng Shui master to look at the place."
"The tomb looks dark and deep, and the environment is not bad. In fact, from a Feng Shui perspective, it is extremely detrimental to the development of future generations."
"It is absolutely impossible for an educated official to choose it, so I judge that the tomb here should be the tomb of a certain businessman."
"Businessmen in the Tang Dynasty did have some money, but this businessman's house was obviously ransacked before his death, and he had very little savings left."
"So I feel that the mausoleum in front of me is not worth 2 yuan."
Lin Ran finally finished the work and looked at Lao Hei solemnly.
Everyone stood there dumbly.
They thought Lin Ran was just an ignorant brat just now, and were ready to refute him when he gave his reasons.
But what he said made sense, and they were speechless.
The other party made a discussion from three aspects: treasure appraisal, history and Feng Shui, which was quite professional and comprehensive!
Naturally, they were unable to refute and could only stand there blankly.
"I'm done, do you have any other questions?"
Zheng Xuetao was the first to applaud and said with a smile: "As expected of Mr. Lin, he is really insightful. Lao Hei, do you think what he said makes sense?"
Lao Hei looked gloomy and said nothing.
The little old man wanted to stand up and refute just now, but found that he was at a loss for words.
There was a slight sweat on his head, but he finally bit his lip and took two steps back.
The kid in front of me is very powerful. Is this really just Tianlexing's master?
Of course they have heard of Tian Loxing's name, but in their opinion, the masters there are just flowers in the greenhouse.
Those like them who have experienced life and death in the wild are the real masters of treasure appraisal!
Precisely because they also studied treasure appraisal and Feng Shui, they were sure that Lin Ran was not an ordinary person.
What he said just now clearly highlighted Lin Ran's level.
The inscription on the stele was indeed as Lin Ran expected, but unknown businessmen in the late Tang Dynasty had destroyed the stele in order to sell the tomb for more money.
"It seems that Brother Zheng doesn't want to buy this thing anymore." Lao Hei looked around and talked to him.
Zheng Xuetao smiled and fanned himself: "In business, value for money is important. Your thing is not worth the price. If it can be cheaper, I might consider it."
At this moment, another treasure appraiser brought by a middle-aged man stood up.
He said in a calm tone: "I thought Tianlexing's master was so great, but it turned out that he was just an armchair strategist."
He had remained silent just now, but now he stood up.
Attracting everyone's attention, he pulled down the brim of his hat to prevent others from remembering his appearance.
He lowered his head and said in a low voice: "This little brother seems to be knowledgeable, but in fact he just read more books. Have you ever considered the issues of historical times?"
Lin Ran also became interested in the person in front of him.
At first, he thought that the person in front of him was a trap invited by Lao Hei. In this era, wherever there is gambling, there are basically traps to stir up the atmosphere.
But there was a trace of disdain on his face, as if he really looked down on Lin Ran.
"You said that celadon bamboo vases and white porcelain figures are all imitations. But have you considered that the most popular one at that time was Tang Sancai. Although on the surface, people could not buy Tang Sancai for follow-up, because the law clearly stipulated that merchants It belongs to the lower class and can only be buried with one piece of porcelain."
Lin Ran looked at him, slightly puzzled.
Does what he said conflict with that?
The man in the peaked hat explained: "But look at the tomb in front of you. These three pieces of porcelain alone show that his status is above the fifth grade. If there are still porcelain inside, it means that his value is very high."
"Another point, you said that Hebei Province is a border area, and only the officials who were assigned there would belittle it. That's because you have already acquiesced that the tomb belongs to the owner of the tomb in the late Tang Dynasty. In fact, during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the border generals owned His power is far less than that of important officials in the imperial court."
"And at that time, the Tang Dynasty believed that it had unrivaled military strength. They were not afraid of foreign enemies at all, and they could live freely in the border areas."
"Not bad." The little old man couldn't help but praise and clapped his hands.
"Finally." The man in the peaked hat glanced at Lin Ran with a cold look: "Your so-called Feng Shui theory is based on the design of the main tomb, but have you ever considered the possibility of a fake tomb?"
Hearing this, Lin Ran also frowned.
In fact, the other party's words are full of loopholes, especially the last sentence of "false tomb".
The princes and nobles are not fools. Even if they make fake tombs, they will make them very realistic.
The other party thought too well of the people in the Tang Dynasty.
Indeed, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, there are restrictions on the burial objects for each person.
But in China, there has always been a saying that death is the most important thing.
During the burial, no one would keep an eye on it, and if a few things were secretly put in, no one would dig them out.
Especially for small officials and ordinary people, their burial objects are inherently worthless, so naturally no tomb robbers will dig them out.
Therefore, it is extremely foolish to judge the grade of an official by the number of porcelain buried with him.
In the archeology of the museum, it was found that most of the people of fourth grade and above were buried with no less than a hundred pieces of Tang Sancai. This was judged on the basis that a large number of cultural relics were stolen.
But he didn't open his mouth to refute. He was only invited by Zheng Xuetao to come for appraisal.
There was no need for him to help others point out the problem based on the other party's appraisal results.
He just smiled and nodded, as if to say: "Yes, everything you said is right."
Seeing that Lin Ran didn't refute, the man in the peaked hat actually showed a proud smile.
"Is the other party really right?" Zheng Xuetao looked at Lin Ran in confusion. He seemed to have no intention of explaining.
"It seems that who is the expert and who is playing tricks has been determined." Seeing that the situation had stabilized, the little old man stepped forward to smooth things over.
Because of the appearance of the man in the peaked hat, the one-sided situation seemed to have changed subtly.
However, one of the three buyers had already made it clear that he was not interested.
Zheng Xuetao began to hesitate. He quietly asked Lin Ran: "Brother Lin, is what he said right?"
Lin Ran got smarter now and whispered into Zheng Xuetao's ear: "Ignore him, his theory is based on the fact that this is a fake tomb."
Seeing the man in the peaked hat so sure, the buyer behind him also stood up.
It seems that after a period of consideration, he decided to buy everything in the ancient tomb!
