This Bronze Mirror, when reflecting light, could actually reveal the pattern on its back—an utterly miraculous sight. Most of the people present had never seen such an astonishing treasure before and were dumbfounded.
The seasoned experts, overcome with excitement, were shivering and at a loss for words. One of them said to Ye Fan, "May I take a closer look at it?"
Ye Fan gave a slight smile and very generously passed the Bronze Mirror to the expert, saying, "Take your time looking at it, and while you're at it, give me an appraisal. Let's see what the current market price is."
This scene left everyone in awe; Ye Fan was being quite magnanimous, weren't he? Such an important treasure—should it really be handled so casually? What if it were stolen, or worse, accidentally broken? That would be an occasion for endless regret.
