  Chapter 983 Bronze Mysterious Hand

  Tomorrow is the first day of registration for freshmen, so Li Mo left early as he saw that nothing had happened. Niu Sanpang has been relatively low-key in the past one or two years. He has made a fortune in silence and controlled many promising companies through various investment methods.

  As his net worth continued to rise, he became more and more low-key.

  When Li Mo drove to the agreed private club, San Pang, Wen Jun, and a large group of young masters who followed San Pang in the same circle stood at the door to greet him.

   "Hello, Mr. Li."

  Wen Jun was the first to rush forward and opened the car door for Li Mo with an extremely respectful attitude.

   "Mr. Wen, long time no see. Judging by your complexion, you should be in a pretty good mood recently."

"That's necessary. I have invested in several projects with Mr. Li, and now they are starting to make profits. Judging from the trend, the profits will be at least ten times higher in the future. It's strange to make money every day. I'm not happy. I and Mr. Niu They were discussing just now that they are going to form a large investigation group to visit Yun Province, and they will definitely make a lot of money following you."

   "If you really have spare money and want to invest, then talk to my senior sister."

   "Okay."

  Niu Sanpang is much more stable, he shook hands with Li Mo and said directly: "The things are inside, just wait for you to go and have a look."

   "Who brought it here?"

"A friend's old family." Niu Sanpang pointed to a man in his thirties beside him, "It's one of his cousins ​​who collect junk in his hometown. It looks weird. You'll know when you see it." gone."

Li Mo did not answer, but followed Wen Jun into a private room. In the private room, a dark-skinned middle-aged man in his fifties was drinking a bottle of soda. When he saw many people rushing in, he quickly stood up. .

   "Mr. Li, that's him."

  Wen Jun pointed to the middle-aged man, and then pointed to a long box on the coffee table. Li Mo walked to the side, and suddenly many people surrounded him. He opened the wooden box and was stunned. No wonder Niu Sanpang said it was weird and he had never seen it before. Don't say it's him, I haven't even seen it myself.

   This is a bronze vessel, to be precise, a bronze arm. The bronze hand is very lifelike, it is obviously a right hand, but the shape is slightly smaller than the hand of an adult. The overall shape is half-handled, the palm is concave, and the back of the hand is slightly convex. The proportions of the fingers are moderate, the knuckles are clearly visible, the fingertips are smooth, and even the details of the nails are clearly shown.

  There are two vertical grooves on each finger, and the taotie pattern is decorated on the back of the hand. At present, only half of the animal face remains. The cross-section of the wrist is oval, and traces of the carbonized wooden handle remain in the lower handle cavity. The entire palm is about 13 cm long, and the widest part is about 6 cm. The surface is evenly patina, and it can be seen at a glance that it really came out of the soil, not that kind of handmade.

  With this judgment in Li Mo's mind, a golden light flashed across his different pupils, and the mysterious bronze hand in front of him emitted a colorful halo, which then turned into a series of colorful halos and spread out. Streams of colorful energy quickly merged into his eyes, turned into traces of cool air and flowed into his body, making this scorching heat cool all of a sudden.

  About ten seconds later, the colorful energy was completely absorbed. Li Mo withdrew his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man who was a little nervous and asked, "What's the name of this gentleman?"

   "My surname is Wan, and my hometown is in the middle of Jidi, near the Taihang Mountains. Mr. Li can call me Lao Wan, and you can ask any questions you want."

   After all, it is a small business, and there is no stumbling block in what I said.

   "Old Wan, why do you think this thing is an antique?"

"It's just that I often run around and see a lot, so I have this suspicion. In addition, when I went to play with my family, I happened to pass by Xia Yu's altar for offering sacrifices to heaven, so when I received this thing, I suddenly thought of whether this might be possible. It's true too."

  Li Mo pondered: "How much did you pay for it?"

   "It was weighed by the catty, and it was taken out of the house by an old man in his seventies. The old man had cataracts in his eyes. I thought it was pitiful, so I gave him an extra twenty yuan."

Unexpectedly, this old Wan is still quite intentional, Li Mo nodded and said: "Old Wan, this strange bronze hand is indeed real, probably in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, about 2,500 to 3,000 years from now. You It may not be clear, but in our country, any buying and selling of genuine bronze wares is prohibited, and once discovered, it will be a felony."

   Lao Wan was dumbfounded, he really didn't know about this matter.

"Think about it too, don't worry about anything. Just hand over this bronze ware from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period to the official. After the official appraisal, you may be rewarded with a sum of money. But such a bronze ware is very strange. It's unclear exactly where it was used."

   "Mr. Li, you are the authority on this matter, can I entrust it to you?"

"give it to me?"

  Li Mo looked at the mysterious strange hand in the box, and then leaned over to smell it. There was a faint earthy smell, which turned out to be something that had just been unearthed. This is a little different.

   "Old Wan, are there any other bronze wares in that old man's house?"

   "Yes, I saw a few pieces in the corner of the yard, and the surface was covered with green rust like this."

  Li Mo frowned slightly. Could it be that a large tomb appeared near Taihang Mountain. Bronze relics from two or three thousand years ago can only be found if they are dug out from underground tombs. The old man had cataracts in both eyes, he couldn't see clearly, and he didn't know what it was, so he didn't take it seriously. To find out the situation, you can only go to the local area to see it yourself.

   "Mr. Wen, first give this old Mr. Wan 100,000 yuan. This strange bronze hand has some origins. I will immediately take it to the relevant bronze experts for identification."

   "Okay, I'll arrange the finances right away."

"Brother, this is really an antique for thousands of years." Niu Sanpang couldn't help but take out the strange bronze hand, and carefully looked at the symbol on the palm: "This is a bit like an eye. What do you think the ancients carved eyes in their hands?" mean?"

"I can't judge the meaning of this bronze monster hand alone, but in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were mysterious symbols or patterns on the things left by dignitaries at that time, which had a certain meaning. If you look at it from my point of view , the eyes are used to see the world, which is called seeing the world in the eyes. And the eyes are carved in the palm, which represents the meaning of the universe in the palm of the hand. Generally speaking, its owner hopes to control the world and become the lord of the people."

When Li Mo said this, he realized something in his heart: "Perhaps this strange bronze hand was dug out from the tomb of a certain ruler in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. No, this matter is very important. I will take a step first .”

  Bringing the mysterious bronze hand, Li Mo hurriedly drove towards the Kyoto Museum. On the way, I contacted curator Shangshi and asked him and a group of bronze experts to wait first. There was an amazing bronze that needed to be appraised by them.

  The bronze experts in the Kyoto Museum were all excited about what Li Mo said. Now Li Mo is a well-recognized treasure appraisal expert in China, and even he is very cautious, which shows that the bronze ware he got in his hand is really very famous.

   During rush hour, Li Mo's car was stuck in traffic for nearly half an hour, and he didn't arrive at the Kyoto Museum until early six o'clock, but no one complained, instead, eight people surrounded him as soon as he appeared.
