Chapter 121 The first meeting

As soon as Xu You's price came out, everyone in the auction house was startled, and there was a sudden silence.

"Two, 200 million. This gentleman bid 200 million. I wonder if anyone is willing to increase the price?"

The auctioneer was also taken aback. Apart from being relatively old, this bronze hammer has no collection value at all. The reason why it is ranked at the back is because it is a bronze utensil. Maybe it can fool two big dogs who don't know the goods.

But the auctioneer did not expect that this 'big dog' was not only willing to spend money, but also looked quite young.

However, another bidder who thought of this lot was a very attractive lady. The auctioneer didn't show it on the face, but he was scolding 'the prodigal son of the dog day' in his heart.

Liao Ruyan was also taken aback by Xu You's bid. She looked up at Xu You, thinking that the other party had just struck up a conversation with her, her expression changed, and she gave up the price increase.

The bronze hammer was successfully photographed, and the smile on Xu You's face couldn't be concealed, making Shi Ya Nei shake his head.

"What is this, tell me about it later?" Shi Ya Nei was an antique lover after all, so he couldn't help his curiosity and begged.

"I'll find a place to show you later. It's a bronze hammer. It's nothing special." For collections, it's really nothing special, but for Xu Wei, it's different.

I should leave early for a while, and go home and sleep as soon as possible is the big deal.

The finale of the auction was a huge bronze square tripod, which was also a product of the Han Dynasty. The entire bronze square tripod was simple and generous, about [-] meters high and nearly one meter wide, with taotie and dragon patterns carved and painted on it.

Speaking of it, this bronze square tripod is much more valuable than the bronze hammer that Xu Wei took, but the halo on it can only be said to be huge and bright, but it does not form the current Baoguang.

The starting price of this bronze square tripod was 210 million, and many people followed suit, and it didn't take long to reach [-] million.

Xu Wei is not interested in this kind of flashy thing, which is specially used to smash people's heads. When it comes to the Shi Yamen next to him, he is eager to try it.

"You like it?" Xu You turned around and asked.

"Who doesn't like it? It's a bronze tripod. Apart from being in a museum, this is the first time I've seen the real thing." Shi Ya Nei's face was a little flushed with excitement, and it was obvious that he really liked it.

"Even if it's just unearthed?" In the halo of this bronze square tripod, there is still a gray-black aura, this kind of aura Xu You has only seen on newly unearthed things.

"Life pit?" Shi Ya Nei looked at Xu Wei in surprise, you must know that this is his cousin's business, if there is a life pit, it will be very troublesome.

"It's only been around ten years, and it's considered a life trap, but some people think it's not. Anyway, I don't recommend you to buy it." For Xu Wei himself, if there is no special reason, he will never touch these things.

The main reason is that it feels scary when you look at it, and it also feels cold to the touch.Others may not be able to feel it, but it is probably due to the fact that his body is different from others. Anyway, Xu Er's senses are very sensitive, and the temperature will drop just by standing on the side.

"Then, let's forget about it." Although it has been unearthed for ten years, it is only recently unearthed. The Shiya is more confident in this aspect, so naturally it will not buy the thing back.

Of course, there are those who don't shy away from this matter, and there are quite a few of them.

From the first dozen people bidding, to the last two people adding 610 to [-], the final transaction price of this bronze square tripod reached a very astonishing figure of [-] million.

The transaction price has doubled by six times, absolutely beyond everyone's expectations.

Just now Xu Er lowered her hair and sent two text messages. When she looked up, the bronze square tripod was sold at such a price. She thought she had heard it wrong.

"who is this?"

Xu You was planning to ask the Shi Ya Nei, unexpectedly, the Shi Ya Nei didn't know each other, and was inquiring about each other with the waiter around him.

"It's a coal boss. He came to Shanghai recently and spent a lot of money. He has booked half of the banquet in our club these days."

The waiter also knew Shi Ya Nei, so naturally he was willing to explain to him.

"Half? Can't hold him to death."

The Shi Ya Nei muttered with an unhappy expression.

The so-called Hundred Fresh Banquet is the top set of banquets in the clubhouse. All of them are made of special seafood and carefully cooked by top chefs. There is one table every day, but not everyone can be ranked.

The last time the Shi Yamen invited Chen Zhibei to dinner, he wanted a feast of fresh food, but he was never able to line up, and he was angry for several days, but in the end, someone came here and ate several meals, so he naturally felt unhappy.

After the auction was over, Xu You wanted to go home with the bronze hammer, but the Shiya Nei very enthusiastically invited Xu You to have dinner together.

As soon as he entered the box, the Shi Ya Nei hurriedly urged Xu Wei, "Hurry up, let me see things."

Naturally, Xu You would not refuse, so he took out the bronze hammer that he just got and put it on the table.

"Don't tell me, I think I have seen a lot of these bronzes, but this is the first time I have seen such a hammer. This thing is said to be a weapon, but it is a bit short, and it is said to be a musical instrument, and it is a bit big. I don't know. What is it for?"

The Shi Ya Nei looked over and over for a while, but didn't see any tricks, so he had to put the bronze hammer on the table with regret, and returned it to Xu Wei.

"It's for blacksmithing." Xu You said casually, and then put the hammer back into the box.

This is a very important treasure and must be well protected.

"Ironsmiths?" asked differently in the division's office, "The ironware of the Han Dynasty was not well developed."

"But it is also a period of transition from bronze ware to iron ware, which can be seen from the Han sword." Xu Wei explained.

As far as he knows, the earliest iron artifacts found in archaeology belong to the Spring and Autumn Period, and most of them were found in Changsha, southern province.

After the middle period of the Warring States period, the unearthed iron wares spread all over the Seven Kingdoms area at that time, and were applied to all aspects of social production and life. They also occupied a major position in the agriculture and handicraft sectors. Iron weapons were mainly used, and at the same time, iron was also introduced to Japan via North Korea.During the Western Han Dynasty, ironware was used in a wider area, and the types and quantity of wares increased significantly, and the quality improved again. Until the Eastern Han Dynasty, ironware finally replaced bronze wares.

The rise of the Han sword is due to the improvement of the iron and steel smelting process, which made the performance of the sword develop by leaps and bounds, and gradually replaced the role of the bronze sword on the battlefield.

"As the last weapon in history, the Han Sword has a position that cannot be ignored whether it is in historical archaeology or cultural collections, and its appearance also marks the development of iron. mature state."

Xu Wei conducted a very detailed science popularization in the Shiya, and filled in some of his own understanding from time to time.

The Shi Ya Nei nodded straightly, and would ask questions aloud when he heard something he didn't understand.

The two chatted so happily that they ignored the passage of time. When the waiter delivered the dinner they ordered, they realized that half an hour had passed.

"Brother Jie, I'm sorry, I'm late, I just made two new friends."

The visitor was a very strong man, but he was dressed very tastefully, with diamond cuffs pinned to his cuffs, and a diamond watch on his left wrist, but he didn't look like a nouveau riche at all.

It could be seen that someone specially took care of his clothes.

"You are not authentic, Junzi. You said you were invited to dinner, but you were the last one to arrive. Fortunately, I ordered the dishes in advance, otherwise it would be a big loss."

As soon as the Shi Ya Nei saw the person coming, he filled the wine glass beside him and handed it over, "Old rules, three glasses of wine are fined."

The strong man named Junzi didn't say a word of nonsense, took the wine glass and drank it immediately, then poured himself three more glasses and drank them all.

"Xiao Xu, let me introduce to you. This is my brother Chi Yanjun. We grew up naked together." After finishing speaking, he dragged Chi Yanjun over again, "Junzi, this is my brother Chi Yanjun in the new city of Shanghai." The brother I know, Xu Wei, is an intellectual, a cultural person, and is very famous in the international language and academic circles."

Xu Wei got up and shook hands with this gangster-looking Chi Yanjun, thinking in his heart, what a coincidence that we met again today.

It turned out that among the new friends Chi Yanjun mentioned was Liao Ruyan, who had previously regarded Xu Wei as his disciple.

"Yo, brother Xu, have you practiced?" As soon as Chi Yanjun shook hands with the other party, he realized that Xu Wei's handshake posture and the power he used were different from ordinary people, but more like those who had practiced ancient martial arts.

"No, I just practiced some things to strengthen my body." Xu Wei shook his head, and quickly denied that what he did was able to protect himself and strengthen his body, and the rest was just a show.

Chi Yanjun was quite happy, but felt that the other party was being modest, "Isn't practicing martial arts these days just to keep fit?"

"By the way, let me introduce two new friends for you to meet." As he spoke, he pointed to a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and smiling three-pointedly when he saw everyone, "This is Liao Qingyun, Overseas Chinese in North America, that beauty is Liao Qingyun's younger sister, Liao Ruyan."

Maybe it's because of the first impression. Anyway, Xu Wei thinks that Liao Qingyun is much more pleasing to the eye than his sister.

And Liao Qingyun is definitely a master in the social field, and he quickly became friends with several people.

After chatting for a while, the topics of the few people began to deepen. It turned out that the Liao brothers and sisters came to Shanghai this time for business.

In North America, the Liao family is engaged in the business of medical devices, mainly providing various medicines with special curative effects to hundreds of hospitals in North America.

This time, the two of them came to Shanghai for the new drug of Chen Zhibei's Biomedical Research Institute. The Liao family hoped to gain a share in the sales of this new drug in North America.

Xu You raised his eyebrows, feeling that this incident was a bit too coincidental, so he turned his head and glanced at the Shi Ya Nei suspiciously.

Seeing Xu Er's eyes on the inside of the Shi Yamen made him feel nervous. You must know that although many people knew about the many new medicines he had obtained, he never told others where he got them from.

"Then you came this time, you should have found someone who can talk to you over there, right?" Shi Ya Nei asked with concern, hoping to wash off his body.

"Not yet. We only found out after we came to Shanghai that Mr. Chen had already left for Europe. We never had the chance to meet him. Moreover, this Chen Xianshen lived a very low-key life. We couldn't find anyone to introduce him."

Liao Qingyun was a little frustrated when he said this, and at the same time, he cursed secretly at the staff in Shanghai.

He couldn't even get anything useful about the other party's affairs. He really deserved that he couldn't be promoted for the rest of his life.

"Oh, but for such a big company, Mr. Chen shouldn't be in charge of it all by himself, right?" It's okay to have nothing to do with them. In fact, Shiya Nei doesn't care at all whether the other party finds a way, but he is very worried about Xu Wei He has an opinion.

My future share of medicines, as well as my voice on Dongtai Road, all need the help of the other party.

"We found Mr. Chen's deputy, Mr. Qu Feng, Mr. Qu, but Mr. Qu said that he has no right to the affairs of the Institute of Biology, and the person in charge of the Institute of Biology only I'm interested in research, but I don't have much say in sales development."

Speaking of which, Chi Yanjun stepped in, "Brother Jie, you got so many medicines last time, do you have some acquaintances over there, how about introducing them to my buddies?"

When he was talking, he gave Shi Ya Nei a vague look in his eyes. Shi Ya Nei glanced at Chi Yanjun, then at Liao Ruyan, and returned a contemptuous look to the other party.

Things that emphasize sex over friends, see how I deal with you when I go back.
