Nine Eyes Heavenly Bead - C86

Just as Yu Jingyan was about to continue explaining this issue, a few guests suddenly came in through the door. The old man in the lead had white hair and wore glasses, looking like a scholar with three young men following behind him.

“Boss, just look around, just do whatever you want.” Chiang Renyong smiled as he opened the door to welcome the guest.

After the four guests looked around the shop, the old man said to the young people who were accompanying them in a low voice, “Do you see this? This is a typical Qing Dynasty snow and white work. Look, this is the standard of a Tibetan official Buddha statue from 200 to 300 years ago, even better than the Manchu court. In terms of the amount of metal and water used and the overall size of the Buddha statue, it is very similar to the one in the capital museum.”

The old man pointed to the Buddha statue of the Dian Tang in Chiang Renyong’s shop and explained it to the people who were accompanying him. Then he quickly took out his phone to take a picture and recorded down the important points the old man had mentioned.

Yu Jingyan frowned, he knew that this old man was an expert, there was no problem with his explanation of the Buddha statue, but for them to “ka ka” sound picture and explain everything without the permission of the seller, it was more or less against the rules.

Chiang Renyong’s face did not look good either. He coughed lightly and said, “Who allowed you to take pictures? If you want to look at the goods, then look at them. If you don’t, then go out.

Yu Jingyan could tell that Chiang Renyong and the old man did not know each other, and the other party’s actions had already offended Chiang Renyong.

“Are you the boss?” “Don’t misunderstand, I’m an expert from the Central TV’s” Exhibit Treasure “program. I’ve come here this time to pick out a representative collection of ancient items from folk and merchants to join our program. This is my name card …” Saying that, the old man took out his name card and gave it to Chiang Renyong, who took it and looked at it a few times, the disgust on his face clearly lessened.

“So it’s Elder Dong. Please excuse me. You have come here to visit the store’s items, that’s no problem, but please do not casually leak out the photos of the shop, they will adversely affect my business.” Chiang Renyong made a concession, but did not renounce his bottom line.

“Don’t worry about that, we are not some heartless merchant. We won’t mess around with them.” The expert Elder Dong said.

Chiang Renyong nodded his head, Yu Jingyan and the others did not say much, Yu Jingyan really wanted to see how this expert would evaluate the prayer beads that Chiang Renyong had received.

Look again, this Thang-ga on the wall is the work of an old painting school of the Yutang. It has a certain age, but it has yet to reach the generation, so it should be in the late stage of the Republic of China. Later on, he used some incense and it had the appearance of an old painting school. The Elder Dong pointed to a picture of a Thang-ga hanging on the wall.

The young attendants took photos and recorded information once again while the Elder Dong continued to observe the other antiques in the shop. Yu Jingyan realized that this Elder Dong had very high standards, and did not even spare a glance for those antiques that were slightly inferior in quality or quality.

“You’re quite capable. I’ve seen both of the treasures in Boss Jiang’s shop. Now it’s time for the prayer beads on the cotton cloth, right?” Yu Jingyan thought.

Just as expected, before Elder Dong could say anything, a young man who was accompanying him had already noticed the string of beads. He leaned over and said, “Elder Dong Master, this string of beads is very special, it’s not made of wood.”

Elder Dong also came over. After looking at the prayer beads for a while, he took off his glasses and used his clothes to wipe her lens, then put it back on, pointed at the prayer beads and asked: “Boss, can I start using it?”

Chiang Renyong looked at Yu Jingyan, and thought to himself: Since your Boss Yu said that the prayer beads are wrong, then coincidentally there is a program team expert from the《 Appraisal Treasure》 program team, why don’t we let the experts take a look at it?

“Elder Dong, just take a look. It’s still as you said, just don’t randomly spread the photos.” Chiang Renyong said.

Elder Dong took out a pair of disposable gloves from his pocket, carefully picked up the prayer beads and studied them, then took out a high magnifying glass from his bag. He looked at the prayer beads for a long time, then put it down, excited.

“Elder Dong Master, is this the Gabala?”

“Elder Dong Master, is he really the King of Beads?”

“Elder Dong Master …”

The young people who were accompanying them also looked very excited. Yu Jingyan knew that this was probably the first time these young people had seen a “Gabala” in their lives.

“Elder Dong, you recognize this prayer bead?” After receiving the Elder Dong’s acknowledgement, Chiang Renyong was also somewhat happy.

Elder Dong nodded his head: “That is natural, the reason Gabala is called the King of Orbs is because it is very difficult to collect a complete string, this string has 108 stones, and it is matched with high quality Southern Red, Honey and Wax beads. It is extremely priceless!”

Then he said to the young people that accompanied him: “The Gabala is made from the remains of the High Monk Dade. The bones that are used are part of the finger and brow bones, and a High Monk’s remains can only be used to make a dozen or so Gabala beads. Last year at the Ancient Sky Auction House in Beijing, a string of 106 Gabala prayer beads were auctioned off at a high price of nearly a million, and the string of Gabala prayer beads in front of us is definitely worth more than a million! ”

Chiang Renyong was also overjoyed, the prayer beads that he had spent 450,000 gold could be doubled with a flip of his hand, this was truly a joyous transaction.

The only person he was worried about was Yu Jingyan.

“Boss, are you willing to send this Gabala to our ‘Appraisal Treasure’ program team to join the show? “In that case, it will allow you to spread the culture of heritages to the entire country. After your treasure increases its exposure, no matter if it’s a collection or a trade, it will all increase its value!” Elder Dong asked.

Chiang Renyong looked at Yu Jingyan again, and it was hard to say: “This prayer bead is something I just received, and I think that I might be able to find a problem with it, but my friend here says that there’s something wrong with it, he’s also in the antique business, with his unique insight, if I see things personally, I think that there’s no problem with it, so, Elder Dong, it’s fine if you want me to use this prayer bead to attend the show, but I have to find out if there’s anything wrong with it.”

After hearing Chiang Renyong’s words, Elder Dong turned his attention from the antiques to Yu Jingyan, and the two of them looked at each other with disappointment.

“This person has a vulgar temperament with only a few strands of hair left. He doesn’t look like an antique dealer, but more like a swindler.” Elder Dong thought.

This old man is quite old, and as an expert in the program team, he is blind. I say, this Elder Dong is not an expert, but a ‘expert’. Yu Jingyan thought.

“Hello, you said that there’s a problem with this Gabala. What’s the problem?” Elder Dong’s tone revealed a sense of majesty.

Yu Jingyan: “Who told you that this string of prayer beads was from a Gabala?”

Yu Jingyan’s tone revealed complete contempt.

“Who are you, what did you say to the Elder Dong’s master?” The young man who was accompanying them said angrily.

Silang suddenly stood up and slammed the table, causing the young lad who spoke earlier to immediately become terrified.

“Young lad, what do you mean by that? This string of prayer beads is not a Gabala. The Elder Dong asked.

Yu Jingyan coughed once, and lit up a cigarette, then said solemnly: “Not all human bone prayer beads are called Gabala, or rather, only a prayer bead that is made from the finger and eyebrow bones of a monk’s great virtue can be called a Gabala. However, the rosary in front of us, which is made from a large amount of precious beads, can only be called a human bone rosary. Moreover, it is a human bone rosary that does not conform to etiquette, because it is not made from the remains of a monk that follows the wishes of a monk!

The Elder Dong was stunned, he naturally knew the rules that needed to be followed to create Gabala rosary beads — First, the high monk Dajun had agreed that after his death, he would use the remains of his flesh removed from the body to make the Gabala rosary beads. After that, the dead must be the high monk medals who had cultivated the way of the heavens, they could not be ordinary Buddhist followers or commoners, and even more so, they must not be criminals who had committed a heinous crime.

“Young one, how should I address you?” Elder Dong asked.

Yu Jingyan: “I am Yu Jingyan, the owner of Lang Sai Antique City.”

Elder Dong: “You said that the prayer beads can only be called human bone prayer beads because the ingredients used to make the prayer beads are not the remains of the High Monk Dade, but do you have any evidence that the ingredients used to make the prayer beads are not proper? Look at the prayer beads’ clots, as well as the wear and tear left after thousands of twists and turns, and there are traces of the beads being cut straight through the air, these are all traces that spanned over a hundred years. On what basis are you saying that it is not the Gabala s, and is not made from the remains of the monk Great De? ”

Yu Jingyan did not immediately answer, he was pondering about how he should explain the problem of the prayer beads to the mortal man in front of him.

“That’s right, Gabala, as the King of prayer beads, due to their origin being quiet and difficult to gather, are regarded as the most precious existence among prayer beads by the people, but because of this, the value of Gabala s is extremely high, and the price of a single bone bead is even several thousand yuan. This way, a few illegal merchants have set their eyes on the potential market of Gabala s, using cow bones, goat bones and even spirit type bones to forge Gabala s, and also using the methods of crumbly oil, fragrant incense, to create a large number of fake Gabala, made from the bones of those animals. However, there was another kind of imitation, which was extremely potent (in the ancient jargon, it was the possibility that a fake would be mistaken for the real thing), and could be said to be fake and real. This kind of replica was made by unscrupulous profiteers, who would use real human bones to copy the old cutting techniques and make human bone rosary beads. This way, since it was made with human bones, its bone mineral density would be the same as that of a real Gabala rosary beads. But on that topic, the Gabala’s prayer beads were not famous in the past, even though they were worth a lot, but the recognition on the market was low, and only became famous in recent years. Just over ten years ago, there were not many people who knew about the Gabala, and there were no black-hearted merchants who used all sorts of bones to imitate the Gabala. ” Elder Dong explained to the youths around him.

“Elder Dong Master, that is to say, this string of human bone prayer beads in front of us is more than a hundred years old. A hundred years ago, no one could possibly use other bones to forge Gabala s, so this string of prayer beads must be the true treasure of the Secret Sect, right?” said a young man.
