Chapter 466 Fighting between Dragon and Tiger
Starting to clean the bronze tripod, Yuan Ni quickly got into working mode, concentrating on it without any distractions.
With the joint efforts of everyone, the bronze cauldron gradually revealed its true appearance. This bronze cauldron has reliefs on all sides, with the pattern of a horned sheep's head.
The sheep's head is exquisitely carved, the woolen beard is clear and lifelike, and the tripod has three legs, each of which is shaped like a tiger's claw.
If bronze vessels are exposed to the air, they will be corroded by oxygen, and some may even develop patina. However, the bronze tripod with a goat's head on all sides is covered with clay. This layer of clay is not only a disguise, but also a protection.
The bronze tripod presented in front of everyone had no trace of rust and was in very good condition.
Mr. Lu no longer cared about whether he was an official or not. He was extremely happy and directed everyone to put the bronze tripod into the glass cabinet that had been prepared long ago.
This glass cabinet is also specially made. From the day the bronze tripod was unearthed, the dimensions were estimated and built by the factory.
The glass cabinet is fully sealed, and a special device is installed. After placing the bronze tripod inside, close the glass door, extract the oxygen, and inject inert gas.
This is currently a scientific preservation method recognized in the world and can achieve all-round protection of bronze tripods.
The museum has long prepared a location for the bronze tripod. The exhibition hall is the largest and the location is the best, giving the treasure the respect it deserves.
After the display was in place, the curator of the museum led the main staff over. Everyone took photos on the spot. The curator shook Mr. Lu's hand and expressed his deep gratitude.
After Mr. Lu was transferred, he and the curator were still in the same system. Mr. Lu collected treasures and the curator hid them. The two of them had more opportunities to interact with each other.
It was already the afternoon of the third day after finishing this big job, and Yuanni was ready to go home and have a good sleep.
However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw that the hall was full of people, and there was an acquaintance among them. It was Dr. Hou. As soon as he saw Yuan Ni, he stood up with a smile and greeted, "This is the Vice President." long."
Everyone in the room stood up and said, "Hello, Vice President, we are all members of the Archaeological Association."
Ah, this... Yuan Ni didn't expect that so many members had come before they had even arrived to report on their duties.
"Even though our vice-president is young, she is in the antiques department, but she is extremely talented. She defeated several foreign collectors in the on-site appraisal test, and their eyes were red."
As Dr. Hou said, he once again told the story about Yuan Ni's gambling with others.
Everyone was amazed when they heard this. It was just like Dongfang Xu punching a foreign strongman. It was really hearty and made people feel proud.
Another one of them said that he was also present when he was gambling on treasures. "President Yuan has really good eyesight. She not only knows how to identify our local treasures, but also has a lot of research on foreign treasures."
"Yes, yes, this is very important. You must have a thorough understanding of both China and foreign countries, otherwise Rong Yi will suffer losses when betting against each other."
Everyone praised again and again. After the noise had passed, Yuan Ni motioned for everyone to take their seats.
"Thank you everyone for supporting me. It's not easy for us to get together. It just so happens that everyone is here. How about I be the host and let's go have a meal together?"
Doctor Lao Hou quickly shook his head, "Let's wait until the next gathering. Someone wants to destroy Baorongzhai's place. The other party has a big background and has many things in his hand. Baorongzhai can't handle it anymore.
We would like to ask you to step in and take charge, protect Baorong Zhai, and deal with those who kicked it out. "
Yuan Ni blinked, "How do you say it? When did it happen?"
"It's like this. As soon as we went to Hutu River, someone came to Baorongzhai. It was a few foreigners who came with the treasure and said they wanted to gamble..."
Yuanni nodded while listening. She had heard of the name Baorongzhai. This store was quite famous in the circle. When the policy was tightened in the past, Baorongzhai dared to open its doors for business. Everyone said Baorongzhai There is a big backer behind him.
How would such a well-established antique store be afraid of a few people who would kick it out?
"It would be hard for domestic colleagues to come to Baorongzhai even if they come to Thirty or Fifty. The key is that they are foreigners. Most of them don't know much about foreign antiques, so they will easily lose if they bet against each other.
Don’t I think of you now? Now that you are the vice president of the Antiques Association, and Baorongzhai is also a member of the Antiques Association, it is time for you to stand up and support him. "Lao Doctor Hou explained.
Yuanni understood, "Since everyone praises me so much, I am not humble anymore. I am willing to help Baorong Zhai."
Yuan Ni said that not only would she go to the site to participate in the bet, but she would also take two pieces from her own collection. “These people dare to come and challenge the museum, which shows that they have thoroughly explored Baorongzhai’s collection. We must take them by surprise. Catch the opponent off guard."
"Wonderful, why didn't I think of this? We think foreign antiques are difficult to appraise, and they also think our antiques are difficult to appraise.
Now that they have thoroughly explored Baorongzhai's collection, let's get some that they don't recognize. I am also preparing to produce an object. "Doctor Lao Hou immediately patted his thigh and praised it.
The members of the association who can come with me are all people with a warm heart.
Hearing that Yuanni and Dr. Hou had expressed their opinions, everyone also expressed their willingness to take out the treasures at the bottom of the box to help Baorong Zhai.
Dr. Hou was very happy. He raised his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet, "Baorongzhai is not short of money. Since everyone has this intention, let me come forward to coordinate.
Tomorrow everyone will bring their treasures with them, and we will compete on the spot to see whose item has the greatest chance of winning, and whoever has the best chance of winning will be chosen to represent Baorongzhai.
Of course, there are risks in dry gambling. If something goes wrong, Baorong Zhai will have to pay the loss. "
The big guys cheered loudly again. They were running up and down for Baorongzhai's troubles. They couldn't let everyone contribute their efforts and money, right?
With Yuan Ni's participation, the specific operation process was quickly decided. Tomorrow morning, everyone will set off from home, and they must bring their treasures with them when setting off.
After waiting for the old group to leave, Yuan Ni immediately entered the middle courtyard and chose an item from her collection.
She believes that once her collection is released, not to mention foreign collectors, even domestic collectors will not be able to tell the truth.
This thing is...
