Chapter 164: Big Project

The level of trust of the man surnamed Yu in Hu Yunde is obviously higher than that of Wu Duo and Qiu Buluo.

"You said the words were engraved later?"

Hu Yunde nodded.

The man pondered for a moment, "Can you give me some pointers?"

Hu Yunde nodded again, "Mr. Yu, as for the imperial incense burner, first of all, it generally has ears and feet, and it stands up to the sky and the earth. Of course, this is not absolute. But even with this simple bowl stove, the royal incense burner will be made with a slight bulging belly, and at the same time, the mouth edge has a certain curvature. ”

Wu Duoxin said, yes, you don't need to ask for advice afterwards, just listen to it.

"So, first of all, it's very likely that this is a civilian incense burner. Hu Yunde continued, "Of course, if Emperor Zhengde insists on doing this, it is not impossible, but let's look at the lettering. It can't be that he carved this word himself, and he has to be a craftsman, right?"

"This word is very well engraved, and I look at the depression as if it is very old-fashioned. The man couldn't help it.

"Old-fashioned, it can be done. I mean, you see this engraving, it's carved with a knife, right?" Hu Yunde asked rhetorically.

"Definitely with a knife, without a knife, what?"

"If it is a Zhengde royal incense burner, the craftsman will not use a knife, but a small wheel. ”

"Little wheels?"

"Yes, similar to the current grinding wheel, although the edge is also sharper, it is not engraved, it is ground out, and then trimmed, which can still be seen from the difference between knife carving and especially modern knife marks. ”

When Hu Yunde said this, Wu Duo already understood. It turns out that the trick is here.

The man was stunned.

After coming back to his senses, he looked at it carefully again, and was completely convinced.

"Mr. Yu, if you bought it in the late nineties, it wouldn't cost much, right?" At this time, Qiu Buluo asked again.

"It cost one thousand two. ”

Hu Yunde smiled, "You don't lose anything." If you don't engrave the words, this incense burner can be worth about 30,000 yuan, and after the engraving, the value can be more than 20,000 yuan with a slight discount. I said 10,000 yuan because we opened our door to do business, and we had to add related costs, and we also needed to set aside a profit market. ”

The man arched his hand, "Thank you Mr. Hu for your guidance and teaching, then I will leave." ”

After the man left, Wu Duo simply asked directly, "Uncle De, why did you tell him so much?"

Hu Yunde explained, "This is also a scorer, ordinary people, we can naturally not identify without identification." But I observed this person that he was relatively straight, and he couldn't suppress the fire. If we don't make it clear, it may not be out of the antique city, and he can't help but scold us for being black merchants. Today and Saturday, there are many people in the antique city, which has a very bad impact on Daya Zhai. ”

Wu Duo admired it in his heart, and Hu Yunde's ability to see people was also first-class.

The character of the man surnamed Yu explained to him thoroughly, which convinced him, although he was disappointed, he would not be troubled.

Hu Yunde said, "Of course, there must be a prerequisite, this thing was collected by him in the field many years ago, I pointed out that it is not true, and I will not offend my peers." If you bought it in Qizhou recently, you have to deal with it separately. ”

"Uncle De said this, I really benefited a lot. Wu Duo sighed.

"It's just a matter of experience. Hu Yunde looked at Qiu Buluo again, "Old Qiu, you received a set of things, right?"

"Yes, Republic of China pastel, a handle pot, eight cups. The picture of the beam pot is the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, and the eight cups are decorated with dark Eight Immortals, and the whole set is not defective, and the color is good!"

The so-called "Eight Dark Immortals" are the eight magic instruments used by Han Zhongli, Tie Guan Li, Zhang Guolao, Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, Lan Caihe, Cao Guo's uncle, and Han Xiangzi: banana fan, gourd, fish drum, sword, lotus, flower blue, yin and yang jade plate, and horizontal flute (a hole flute).

Hu Yunde nodded, "I won't look at it, besides, does the beam need to be replaced?"

"The original one is brass, although it is relatively old, but it is generally good, and after all, it is the original match, and you can make a rattan set. In addition, wear a wooden box and wrap it. Qiu Buluo responded.

The three of them exchanged for a while, and then it was time to get off work.

After dinner, Wu Duo took out the cursive thousand-character text at home and read it carefully, and listened to it carefully.

It's still a bit messy, but it's certain that it's in the middle layer of the page, not in the shaft, and the old mahogany used for the shaft head is also solid.

When looking at the painting, the fertilizer actually came over to join in the fun, and Wu Duosheng was afraid that he would scratch it, so he avoided it.

"It can't be a work of Buddha statues and sutras, right?" Wu Duo suddenly asked the fertilizer.

Fertilizer licked his tongue and shook his head again.

"It's not that kind of thing, what are you excited about?"

The fertilizer screamed twice, and Wu Duo didn't know what it meant, so after thinking about it, he carefully rolled up the scroll and approached it.

The fertilizer sniffed, and shouted at Wu Duo twice.

"You mean, this is the best thing I've received so far, or the most valuable thing?" Wu Duo's knowledge of chemical fertilizers is also increasing day by day.

"Ou-" said the fertilizer raised his head.

"Hey, Brother Fat, is there a way for you to open it and make sure that the contents are intact?" Wu Duohu asked again.

Fertilizer showed his eyes again, gave Wu a butt, and walked back to the study.

"Here, maybe it's really the calligraphy and painting treasures that Pu Yi brought out of the palace back then. Wu Duo thought about it and sent a video call to Ning Shuang.

"Huh, didn't you take a shower today?"

"I just got home. Ning Shuang glanced at him, "What are you thinking about all day?"

"What are you busy with when you just got home?"

"I ate outside, and I sorted out the materials in the unit. By the way, we might have big projects next month!"

When Wu Duo heard this, he didn't say anything about painting at first, "What kind of big project? You won't have to drill the ravine for months, right?"

"This time it's not a ravine, it's not a tomb, it's a ······" Ning Shuang suddenly stopped, "No, I'm a leak like this!"

"Well, you just said how long it would take, right?"

"It's hard to say, but it's not decided yet, and I may not be selected for the project team!"

"Okay, we'll talk about it then. I'll tell you about my big project!" Wu Duo put the phone on the table, then picked up the scroll and opened it little by little.

"Cursive thousand-character writing? It's not so small, did you find someone to imitate it?"

"What am I looking for someone to imitate this? Let me tell you, the original owner of this thing was a mounter in Changchun during the Republic of China, and I suspect that there are some calligraphy and painting treasures hidden in this thing!"

"How do you know you have hidden treasures of paintings and calligraphy?"

"I analyzed, you see ······" Wu Duo can't say that he "listened" it, but he could "push it hard" from the content he analyzed before.

After hearing this, Ning Shuang chuckled, "You are too whimsical!"

"This scroll is not valuable, try it when you think of it, what if you hit a big luck?" Wu Duo raised his eyebrows, "Do you know any masters in framing techniques in Yanjing?"
