Actually, Ye Xinghao only wanted to choke on Lin Xi at first, but who would have known that he would turn into that clown jumping off from Lin Xi's pressure. He was unable to turn his body around, and his face seemed to have been slapped ruthlessly, turning completely red.
Suddenly, as if he had found a savior, Ye Xinghao looked at Zhang Senxu and Chen Hee with eyes that were close to begging them, hoping that they would refute his words.
But what Ye Xinghao did not expect was that, regardless of whether it was Zhang Senxu or not, he was disappointed. They still looked the same, showing no response to his appraisal.
However, Ye Xinghao was still able to tell from Chen Hee's smiling face that he was certain of Lin Xi's appraisal result, which made it harder for Ye Xinghao to accept, and his expression became even gloomier, but he kept it in, and did not embarrass himself.
"Lin Xi, the good show is still on, let's go and see, I want to see who will be the one laughing at the end."
But no one present knew that Lin Xi's understanding of antiques was only stopped here, not to mention that he had only hugged onto one of them for the past two days while he was reading.
However, Lin Xi was also sighing with emotion. Any book that a person had read, or any knowledge they had learned, would one day help him obtain an unimaginable harvest at a specific time and place.
Furthermore, he also had another piece of good news, which was that he was definitely not the person at the bottom level of this gathering. After all, the Coral hand string that Ye Xinghao had appraised was only a handicraft.
….
Just as Ye Xinghao's heart was filled with resentment and loathing for Lin Xi, Zhang Senxu's heart was also filled with shock, his mind was in turmoil. He never thought that the young man in front of him had such knowledge and experience, he was truly extraordinary, and was rarely seen among the young generation that he knew about.
However, what shocked Zhang Senxu even more was that the jade pendant that was accidentally revealed on Lin Xi's neck caused him to recall something from his memories. That memory had something to do with Zhang Zhiyan's fate, which was why he purposely spoke those words.
"Is it really him? It's the exact same jade pendant. I was wrong …"
Other than Zhang Senxu, Chen Hee was also sizing up Lin Xi with a smile on his face, the more he liked and the more he liked him, the more he liked him, as if he was looking at his own nephew. He laughed: "I don't care about the price, the collection of snuff bottles has only gotten stronger in the past few years, and the price has been rising constantly.
Zhang Senxu suppressed the shock in his heart and spoke in a low voice with a few words, "That's right, this old man had already said that as long as you tell me the origins of the inheritance, I will pass. You have passed now."
It seemed that he had not been humiliated. Just as he was about to return to his seat, he saw Chen Hee point at the two objects in front of him, and said with interest: "I also have two items here, come and look at them together. It doesn't matter if I'm wrong, they're not included in the rules of the gathering."
He thought that since Chen Hee had already said that, if he did not go and take a look, it would be disrespecting his elders and giving him face. This was a huge title, if he really wanted to survive in this business in the future, he definitely could not become enemies with these big shots.
However, Lin Xi knew in his heart that the knowledge he had about antiques was only limited to this small corner. If he had to appraise something else, it would really become like chasing a duck out of trouble, something that would happen sooner or later.
However, the situation was pressing and Lin Xi had no choice but to go.
Thinking to this point, even though Lin Xi was feeling uneasy, he still forced himself to walk over. Then, he picked up one of the items and took the opportunity to examine it.
At that time, the object in Lin Xi's hand was a small bottle gourd, its entire body releasing a purple red brilliance, it was not considered big and was only around 10 cm tall, but the stomach in the middle of the bottle gourd was extremely big, at most 7 or 8 cm tall.
Its outer skin was red and glossy, and its body was thick. Under the reflection of the light, it was shining with a quiet light, giving it a warm and ancient appearance.
This is a cricket gourd!
The cricket Gourd was actually similar to a snuff bottle. It had a special effect even in the early stages of development, and the role of the cricket Gourd was to raise the cricket, so that the cricket would not die in winter. However, with the development of the era, the cricket Gourd would become a toy in the later stages of development.
There are many nicknames for cricket, such as Big Brother, Kuku, Shinzi, etc., which are widely distributed in our country. Because they can make a "inclusive" sound, it is very clear and loud, so together with crickets and oil gourds, they are known as the Three Major Sonic Worms, and have been loved by many Sonic Worms since ancient times.
It has to be said that our country has always viewed cricket as pets, so Soong Dynasty has already begun to raise cricket. It is quite common for cricket to be raised from the palace to the commoners. Within the palace, there are two doors named after cricket. One is named "Hundred Descendants", one is named "Thousand Infants", which is also a continuation of the worship of the cricket's reproductive ability in ancient times.
And when it comes to Qing Dynasty, our country was set off a tide of cricket, one that had never been seen before.
From Kang Xi, Qian Loong, all the way to the Proclamation of Liberation, many emperors liked cricket s. When Qian Loong traveled to the west mountains, he heard the chirping of crickets all over the mountains. Like the clamor of the copper in Chang'an, the peasants and marquis reported it to the west wind... ", and the relationship between the last emperor and the cricket was even more mysterious.
But everyone knew that the cricket's lifespan was not actually very long. Even though it could reproduce for a generation every year, from eggs to adults, it took up more than half of the year, and the lifespan of adults was usually only around eighty to ninety days. When it was winter, they would die, which brought about a huge problem and suffering to those who liked cricket.
Later on, there were experts who played cricket throughout the year and discovered that the lifespan of the cricket adults could also be extended to a year, which was undoubtedly a huge blessing to many cricket lovers. However, there were many things to be paid attention to in order to let the cricket survive through the winter without any problems, and it was also at this time that a cricket gourd was born.
