Chapter 202: Chaozhu
"Did I get an eye?" Liu Gangpao showed a slight look of surprise, and sighed, "Young man, you must have been fooled by the stall owner." This thing cannot be the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, because if it is the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, it is an imitation of Yongzheng. And the things in the foreign exchange earning period, because of the use of new chemical materials, are more refined. ”
"I didn't say it was the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China. ”
"What? Could it be that you think it's something from the Yongzheng Dynasty?" Liu Gangpao shook his head again and sighed, "You're wrong! This can't be something from the Yongzheng Dynasty." ”
"Old man, you say it's impossible, you mean the official kiln. "Wu Duo is not Xu is not sick," this is a fine product of Yongzheng Minyao. It may be because the color material has some pastel feeling, so it is quite different from the Yongzheng official kiln bucket color. However, in the Yongzheng Dynasty, the pastel began to shine, and the folk kiln was not as particular as the official kiln, and it was normal for some fusions to be integrated. ”
"You're really not a novice!" Liu Gangpao was completely surprised this time, and then pointed to the bag in Wu Duo's hand, "Can I take another look at this pen holder?"
"Yes, it's a great pleasure to learn. ”
Liu Gangpao looked very carefully this time, especially after rubbing the surface of the colored material with his hand, and finally nodded, "You're right." ”
"So, you don't have to worry too much. I'm kind of reciprocating. ”
"This is my eye-catching, but you want to thank me?" Liu Gangpao frowned.
"Mainly, I don't want to see this set of things dismantled. ”
"Okay, I've got you, young man! How much did you pay for this snuffbox?"
"One thousand, three thousand more than the line price. ”
"I can ask for it, but I'll transfer you three thousand. ”
Wu Duo smiled, "Then I will lose." ”
"Huh?" Liu Gangpao suddenly showed a vigilant look, "Young man, what a scheming······!
"I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. Wu Duo waved his hand, "Forget it, don't explain." ”
Wu Duo walked away, but was stopped by Liu Gangcang, "It's still the same sentence, if you don't make it clear, take the things!"
"Okay, give it back to me. Wu Duo stretched out his hand.
"Huh?" Liu Gangpao was stunned.
This young man is so young, how can he be so unpredictable?
In fact, although Liu Gangpao is old, his brain is still quite flexible, mainly because of today's accident, which caused his emotional ups and downs to change greatly.
And Wu Duo's appearance, first in terms of eyesight, thought it was a bronze, but turned out to be a king. At the same time, Wu Duo said that he would give him a snuffbox, but he was vigilant.
"I said I don't want money. If it's to make money, how can you buy three thousand and sell it for three thousand, and you're full?" Wu Duo sighed, and then left.
This time it went smoothly, because Liu Gangcang was stunned and didn't hold him.
It wasn't until Wu Duo walked far away that Liu Gangpao reacted, "It's that I'm shallow······"
Wu Duo returned to the stall area to look for Ning Shuang, but he didn't find it at first, but later found that Ning Shuang was squatting in front of a stall looking at things.
Wu Duo squatted down next to her and saw that she was looking at a string of beaded bracelets.
"Hey, you're back, you're just in time, you know more about jade, look at this string!" Ning Shuang hurriedly grabbed Wu Duo and said.
"Aquamarine?" Wu Duo said after looking at it.
The diameter of this string of beads is not large, about 1.2 cm, but it is suitable for women. The material of the beads is aquamarine.
Aquamarine, like emerald, is beryl, but as the name suggests, the color of aquamarine is not green, but ocean blue.
However, aquamarine and sapphire are not the same thing. The color of sapphire is deep, and the so-called sapphire blue is that kind of deep blue. At the same time, sapphire glass has a strong luster and much hardness than aquamarine.
"To know what to do is to know what to do. Ning Shuang cocked her thumb, "Look at the vintage again." ”
After getting started, Wu Duo felt that it shouldn't be something new, so for the sake of safety, he listened to it.
Sure enough, it was in the late Qing Dynasty.
However, even so, the value of the new product is not much different.
First of all, there is no high-level workmanship, that is, ordinary beads; secondly, it is not a complete set of things, scattered beads are put together; and, on this basis, the late Qing Dynasty does not play a big role in this little year.
"There are vintages, but the color is average. Gemstones, sometimes the vintage doesn't play a big role. If you like aquamarines, it is better to buy a bunch of new goods, the key is good color. Wu Duo said directly.
"I've never really had an aquamarine before, and it's a good feeling. Ning Shuang nodded, "Then let's see if there's something else." ”
"Then I'll put it down?"
"Hmm. Listen to you. ”
Wu Duo then put the aquamarine bracelet back into the stall.
Behind this stall, there is a man and a woman, who should be husband and wife. However, the gap between men and women is quite large, the men look a little silly, but the women are white and slender, their eyes are quite big, and they give people a very clever feeling in the blink of an eye.
"Handsome guy, it seems that you know a lot about gems!" the female stall owner said with a smile, "I still have a plate of pearls here!
"Oh, what kind of material?" Wu Duo heard that the female stall owner could say "a plate of morning pearls", at least a little bit of research.
Chaozhu is about "plate", saying a plate of pearls, not a string of pearls, a pearl.
Chaozhu is a unique accessory of Qing Dynasty official clothing. However, not all officials are qualified to wear the pearls, and only civil officials with more than five grades and military attaches with more than four grades can wear the pearls to the court.
Chaozhu is not as simple as stringing beads into a "big necklace", in addition to the 108 beads, there are many supporting and exquisite.
Here, the material is particularly important, there are eastern pearls, jade, coral, amber······
Among them, the emperor is naturally wearing the highest grade, the East Pearl Dynasty Pearl. The so-called Tojo pearl is a wild pearl produced in the Tohoku region. Northeast China is the base camp of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the high-quality wild pearls produced in the Heilongjiang, Ussuri and Yalu River basins are of high quality and are also highly valued.
"Jade!" The female stall owner looked at Wu Duo and then at Ning Shuang, "However, the price is not cheap." ”
If it is a genuine set of pearls, it is impossible to be cheap.
Even the lowest grade pearl is not an ordinary material, as long as it is basically complete, it often has to be 200,000 to look up.
Jadeite pearls, originally a relatively high grade, if the same material, good material, the price will go up a level. The best jadeite pearls are not uncommon to have more than 10 million.
A few years ago, there was also a plate of superb jadeite pearls at the auction, and the origin was marked, which was related to Cixi. The starting price of this string of pearls was set at 180 million! However, in the end, no one bid, and the auction was lost.
"It sounds like you have to quote first, and I'll see if I can afford it. Wu Duo smiled.
